Valentin pretended to be B very skillfully, and walked towards the door of the office with steps as if he didn't recognize his relatives.
As a gangster, Valentine is a bit drifting now. This was an experience he had never had in his previous life in the past twenty years, so it was natural for him to expand a little.
Then he was dragged by Xing Yihuang by the collar to the nearby lounge, like a rabbit.
"Put on these clothes."
Xing Yihuang took out a small suit from the closet in the lounge and threw it to Valentin, who was still confused.
Change clothes?
"Why?" Valentine was very puzzled.
"For a formal occasion, do you think it's appropriate to wear a trench coat? Those officials won't think that you went there to talk and that you were going to kill them."
Xing Yihuang looked indifferent, completely unaware that she had been subtly influenced by Valentine and learned to complain.
"Fine."
Looking at the custom-made suit he held in his hands, Valentin reluctantly began to take off his clothes.
In his previous life, as a student, he basically had no connection with clothes like suits, especially since his major was programming. Wearing a suit when looking for a job in this industry used to be considered by some interviewers as a sign that he had no experience in the industry. I am a novice, so Valentin only has casual clothes and sportswear in his wardrobe. He only added a few sets of functional jackets after graduation.
Thinking of those functional clothes, Valentine felt a little sad. After buying it, I traveled to this world and started the Hell difficulty dungeon without wearing it a few times, which is really a pity.
He took the initiative to ignore the points deducted from his figure and appearance in his previous life. Any clothes will only look good on handsome people. Those handsome guys will be licked even if they wear the work clothes of migrant workers. However, no matter how good-looking or expensive the clothes worn by ugly people are, they can only be considered a kind of local people. The feeling of style.
This world is so realistic.
Of course, after coming to the world of Terra, he had a body with excellent foundation, good looks and figure, but...
This one is not handsome, but beautiful.
As a boy, he is as beautiful as a girl.
She is also very slim and short.
Wearing women's clothing, no one can tell that he has a handle underneath.
This made Valentine very sad, so he stubbornly chose clothes that looked cool and cold.
For example, the windbreaker and trousers he just took off were very similar to the functional style of his previous life. When other men put them on, they looked like ruthless pigeons... The killer, when Valentin put them on, he looked like a teenage girl. Men's.
Even so, it's still a bit masculine, isn't it?
Then I put on that suit and the manliness was gone again.
"Valentin, Valentine, you said you have such a good skin but you are a boy. God loves you so much..."
Valentin looked at himself in the mirror and complained silently in his heart.
Well, he wears a neat little black suit, has a thin and short figure, an oval face, and two small dimples when he smiles. Big eyes, long eyelashes, willow-leaf eyebrows, and silver-white oblique bangs.
He once again had doubts about the gender of his body.
"What, you don't like this body?" The system, which had been silent for a long time, took the initiative to talk to Valentine.
"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that... I'm really not a girl?"
Valentine made several poses in front of the mirror.
Xing Yihuang froze behind him for a few seconds and then looked away. She felt there was something wrong with her sexual orientation.
Although not.
"Have you confirmed your life in the Rhine? And your gender on those forms is all male. Besides, it's not like there aren't any cute boys. Do you remember Ansel and Gray?"
The system gave two examples, and the image of a pink lop-eared rabbit instantly appeared in Valentine's mind.
He doesn't remember Gray very well, but Ansel Valentine remembers it clearly.
When he first took it out, Valentin put him in the assistant position, and he kept him there for more than ten days, until one day Valentin clicked on Ansel's file.
I saw "Gender: Male" on the file.
He felt something crack, and then it shattered into a pile of glass shards.
"He was my first love in the game Arknights..." Valentine felt heartbroken when he thought of that incident.
****,****.
But now that he has become an extremely cute boy... Valentine doesn't feel much at all.
It was the manly thing that he had been struggling with.
"Why is Ansel called Macho? Because his skills allow him to have the longest healing distance in the game. If you also have a special MAN skill, I believe others will also call you Macho."
The system began to comfort Valentine.
"Special MAN? Does electrotherapy count?"
Valentin rolled his eyes, too lazy to bother with a system that would only add to his troubles.
"It's time to get down to business..." He tightened his suit and stood next to Xing Yihuang like a pair of sisters.
…
Valentin decided to get a haircut one day, so he shaved his bangs, trimmed his side hair, and cut it all shorter.
Spiritual guy.
I hope those government officials won't ignore him... Who would believe that the person who will take over the entire underground world in the future is a boy as handsome as a girl?
————————————What does Valentine look like? You can change Ansel’s color, reduce his height, and replace his lop ears with horns—————————— —
Facts have proved that Valentine's worries are completely unfounded. The mayor's secretary who received him did not pay attention to his appearance at all, but completely ignored him. In the next few days, Valentin wanted to give him a slap in the face every time he thought of the Ursus man's expression. He electric shock.
There is nothing we can do about it. The gang boss growler sounds domineering, but that is just the image in the minds of some civilians. In the eyes of the government, he is no more than a mouse.
Clean-up is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is frustrating to watch. We can only adopt a compromise strategy, give some "preferential treatment" to the gangsters, let them develop some legal industries, do less illegal and criminal things, and save the government some trouble.
This method is indeed effective. Today's gangs are all large enterprises on the surface. Although there are illegal activities behind the scenes, they are much better than before, except for some unrepentant people...
Just like the snowstorm in Beicheng District.
Ahem...that's too far off topic.
Valentine's secret meeting with the government was very successful. He successfully completed his mission and achieved the goal of preventing the government from intervening in this matter. They did not even ask Valentine if he had such great strength to kill him in a short time. The other forces just said a word.
"As long as it doesn't affect civilians and the government, you can do whatever you want. Of course, if you can't suppress them, the growlers will die."
After speaking, the mayor's secretary asked the waiter to see off the guests.
Although the goal was achieved, Valentine felt very unhappy. He even briefly had the idea of abandoning the city and letting these aloof guys fend for themselves.
But as he looked out the floor-to-ceiling windows of Growler headquarters, that thought evaporated.
This city is beautiful. It is not as modern as Colombia. There are high-rise buildings everywhere. Here you can still see small buildings one after another. Those traditional buildings with a strong Ursian style are still standing and twinkling in the sun. with their unique charm.
Not long after he arrived in this city, Valentin also thought about why he had to go to such great lengths to save her since he had nothing to do with this city. He still couldn't figure it out until now. But he just had an impulse, an impulse to protect the city. As a person who knows what will happen in the future, he feels that he has the ability and obligation to protect Chernobog and the people here, so that the tragedies that should have happened disappear from this world.
Yes, he admitted that the Ursans had a very bad attitude towards the infected, but was there really no chance of salvation?
There is such a plot in the game. After the integration movement captured Chernobog, only a few military and police resisted. The government has withdrawn from the city, and they are the cannon fodder left behind by the government. Even so, those military and police officers faced dozens of times more enemies than their own, and no one of them retreated. They all fought until the last moment. Facing the sudden appearance of Rhode Island, they did not make things too difficult, nor did they follow Amiya's advice to leave the city.
"The Ursans do not show their backs to their enemies."
Time has passed and Valentine has forgotten that line, but he still remembers the general meaning.
When the post forums were all about ACE is my big brother, Valentin looked at those posts silently, but in his heart he was thinking about the soldiers and policemen of Chernobog.
They are not the ACEs of Chernobog civilians.
Of course, this kind of thinking is very holy, and it means that you can stand and talk without pain in your back. But now that Valentin has personally been in Chernobog and has become one of the many infected people in the city, he can more intuitively feel the Ursus people's attitude towards the infected.
Compared with hatred, ordinary Ursus people's attitude towards the infected is more fearful. Here, the Ursus government is constantly publicizing the harm of ore disease to people and the negative impact of infected people on society.
Even so, Valentine was still able to find Ursans who were sympathetic to the infected. It's rare, but it's still there.
No contradiction is inherent. It is the Ursus government that truly hates the infected. Their constant brainwashing of the people has led to today's situation. The person the integration movement should really take revenge on is not the Ursus civilians, but the Ursus government. Sri Lankan government.
Perhaps it is difficult to change the world's view of infected people, but what is Valentine doing here? I came here just to accomplish this, Rhode Island is the key, and Chernobog is the beginning.
"Integrated movement..." Valentine exhaled a breath, and a layer of white mist appeared on the glass in front of him, which soon evaporated again.
------------Dividing line----------
Outside the city walls of Chernobog, in the slums of the Western District.
This is where Leonid grew up and was the key to the turning point in his life. If it hadn't been for the fire in the slums more than ten years ago, Leonid would have become a professor at the Ursus Royal Academy by now, with superior living conditions and status, instead of living in the darkness like now.
Leonid stood at the edge of the ghetto, holding a bouquet of white flowers in his hand. This is where the dead are buried in the slums. They don't have the money to cremate the dead, so they can only bury them nearby and insert a simple wooden board with the deceased's name on it as a tombstone. Over time, it became a slum cemetery. In front of Leonid were the tombstones of his mother and father, and his parents' names were engraved on a stone slab.
The cold wind suddenly blew through the long-dead trees around, making a whining sound like the chirping of ghosts. Leonid knelt down and placed the white flowers in front of the tombstone. Tomorrow is the day when the leaders of the major forces gather, and it is also the beginning of a reshuffle in the underground world. If it succeeds, there will only be one gangster Howler in Chernobog from now on; if it fails, the Howler will disappear forever in the long river of history.
"I don't know whether what I did was right or wrong." He looked at the tombstone in front of him and said to himself.
"But now that you've started, you can't go back."
"You once said that you didn't want me to become a gangster, but I couldn't help it. I joined them, replaced them, destroyed them, and spread their blood in front of you."
"Now, I want to go one step further. One day, the government will pay the due price for what they have done, and this war is the beginning."
"May you bless me."
Leonid bowed deeply to the tombstone. After a long time, he turned and left.
Just as he left the cemetery, a fiery red shadow appeared next to the cemetery.
The Kingslayer did not notice Leonid who was far away. She came here with a mission. The Integration Movement had targeted Chernobog, and she came looking for a stronghold. It was obvious that this slum was her target.
Chaotic enough, complex enough, and weak enough. No one here can harm the Regicide, and there are a large number of infected living here. With their grievances against the Ursans, they can be easily absorbed into the integration movement.
With the hands of Ursans... kill the Ursans.
A conspiracy begins quietly.
