Jiang Xiao wisely refrained from further inquiry and instead changed the subject, needing time to process his shock.
Naoko's gaze shifted to the security guards who stood as still as statues, her voice remaining calm.
"They are just pawns, trapped in this game. Just like me, I used to be one."
Chapter 476 Kneel down and beg me
So that means Nako isn't a security guard anymore?
"How...how did you escape from [this type]?"
Jiang Xiao asked, knowing that Nai Zi's experiences were far from ordinary and that her appearance must be hiding a deeper secret.
Naoko smiled slightly, a smile that carried a hint of mystery.
"This is a long story, but now is not the time to tell it. Jiang Xiao, what you need to do is find a way out, and me, haha, if you beg me properly, maybe I will help you."
Jiang Xiao: ? ? ?
I'm known as "Green Mountain Doesn't Ask for Help," and now you're making me ask for help?
At that moment, Jiang Xiao realized.
The Naoko before him was no longer the chosen one who needed protection, but a member of this bizarre world.
"Are you kidding me? You can just pick a couple of things from me, we're from the same world, aren't we?"
Naoko chuckled self-deprecatingly, then gave Jiang Xiao a deep look, a playful smile curving her lips, her tone tinged with mockery.
"Wake up, Jiang Shen. I'm not on Blue Star anymore, nor am I a citizen of the Dragon Kingdom. What obligation do I have to help you?"
Jiang Xiao frowned; he hadn't expected Naiko to express her stance so directly.
Naoko continued, her voice filled with unspeakable bitterness.
"Sigh, actually, you know what, Jiang Xiao, I've been living in your shadow all along."
"You're so reckless and impulsive, acting without considering the consequences, yet for some reason, your luck is always off the charts, while I have to be cautious and proceed with utmost care, only to end up..."
Her voice gradually lowered, as if she were recalling those untold hardships.
However, Jiang Xiao didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Nai Zi was getting closer and closer to him as she talked.
If I hadn't stepped back at that crucial moment, Nako's chest would probably have been shoved into his mouth.
"Now, I finally have my chance."
Nako's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible anticipation.
"I hope you can ask me for it, after all, it would be a kind of satisfaction for me."
Jiang Xiao: ? ? ?
What's this?
Could this Naoko be a sadist?
Does she like it when people ask her for favors?
Jiang Xiao's heart was in turmoil. There was no way he could bow down to Nai Zi. If it weren't for the fact that she was also a former chosen one of Blue Star who had fought and bled for Blue Star, he would have already given her a good beating.
Seeing that Jiang Xiao remained silent, Naizi didn't say anything either, but simply sat down on a chair to the side, with an indifferent attitude.
"Anyway, I'm all alone now, and I'm trapped in the ghost stories and can't get out. You can beg me if you want, or don't beg me if you don't."
Alone and lonely?
Seeing Naizi's current shameless and reckless attitude, Jiang Xiao felt a surge of displeasure.
Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he asked Naoko with a meaningful look.
"Uh," Jiang Xiao touched his nose, "Well, I remember you have a younger sister, something like Xiaoya?"
Nako:.
"How did you know? Did the two of you investigate my private information? That's illegal!"
Naoko panicked, fearing that Jiang Xiao, this pervert, would use her sister to blackmail her.
However, what Jiang Xiao said next made her turn pale.
"What a coincidence, I really haven't investigated your information. Of course, I wouldn't bother to investigate you, because it would be pointless for me, wouldn't it?"
Nako remained silent.
That's right. With Jiang Xiao's strength and the rising power of the Dragon Kingdom, there's really no need to investigate Naiko's background and family history.
"Then, how did you know I have a younger sister?"
Naoko's voice trembled, because if Jiang Xiao hadn't deliberately inquired, but knew that Xiaoya was his sister...
That can only mean one thing.
Seeing that Naoko had completely lost her previous calm and composed demeanor, it was now Jiang Xiao's turn to be smug.
His face seemed to say: "Want to know how your sister is doing? Beg me!"
"You...you're not."
Nako stood up from her chair, looking completely incoherent.
With just a few words, Jiang Xiao turned her from an active to a passive position.
"Uh, Brother Jiang Xiao, I admit my tone was a bit impolite just now."
"Serve some tea."
Jiang Xiao casually lay down on the chair where Nai Zi had stood up and slowly gave the instructions.
While Naoko was making tea, he continued calmly.
"To know your sister's current situation, simply making tea is definitely not enough. You also need to tell me what's going on with this train, why there are so few rules, and you have to kneel down and beg me, otherwise I won't tell you about Xiaoya's situation."
Naoko's fingers, gripping the teapot handle, trembled slightly.
This brat!
Not only do I have to beg him, but I have to kneel down and beg him?!
This is so shameful!
"Jiang Xiao, this, this isn't appropriate, is it? You're broadcasting live nationwide right now. If I kneel down, won't the entire planet see it?"
"Yes."
Jiang Xiao did not refute, but instead directly retorted.
"Didn't you kneel before? Not only did you kneel down, but you also gave massages to those old perverts?"
Nako:.
Okay, okay, you really know how to bring up the most sensitive topics!
Even the people in the live stream looked at him strangely.
Jiang Xiao really doesn't know how to speak properly.
Isn't this blatantly reopening a woman's most vulnerable wounds and rubbing salt into them?
"I remember you were even called in by that woman to do a striptease or something. Who knows what price you paid to escape from there? You might even have... well, you know."
"okay!"
Naizi interrupted Jiang Xiao's rambling.
At this moment, she didn't know whether she was embarrassed or angry, but her face was flushed and steam was rising from her head.
She transforms directly into a steampunk princess.
"Come on, while you massage me, tell me what's going on here."
Jiang Xiao reclined the chair and lay down on it.
While sipping freshly brewed tea, I enjoyed Naoko's kneeling massage service.
As for the other chosen ones...
San Youcai, who always crawls into the toilet pipes, is probably the one who lives the most "comfortable" life.
The other chosen ones finally understood just how insanely difficult this strange tale truly was.
No wonder the rules state that tickets are checked every half hour.
Because the tickets in your hand will disappear into thin air after you pick them up!
Their only option was to lure people to the toilet, just like the young man at the beginning, and then rob them.
But all these passengers were transformed from strange beings.
There are weaklings in there, but there are also experts.
Actually, it's not so bad.
Having experienced so many strange tales, most of the chosen ones still have some insight and knowledge; at worst, they'll just pick out those who look old, weak, sick, or disabled to rob.
But who would have thought that a little girl who was not even eight years old was actually a big boss comparable to Shirayuki?
