Chapter 227: There are people in the interstellar world who kneel down to beg for mercy
As soon as Meng Ke went downstairs, she saw Gongsun Jin staring at the air in a daze.
Gongsun Jin turned his head and met Meng Ke's eyes.
Meng Ke withdrew her foot somewhat embarrassedly. She was about to pretend that she didn't see it and leave quietly.
After retracting his foot, Meng Keyou felt that his behavior was a little puzzling. He was really not familiar with Gongsun Jin, or rather, their relationship was not very good. He only needed to nod and say hello without being rude.
So, Meng Ke nodded without even a smile and prepared to leave.
Gongsun Jin came over and asked, "We should live in the same place. Do you want to go back together?"
Meng Ke was originally planning to go back and rest, but after hearing what Gongsun Jin said, she immediately changed her plan: "No, I have something else to do."
But as soon as he walked out of the restaurant, Meng Ke felt a little regretful. It was really cold in Beidouxing at night. If nothing unexpected happened, he must have used the primary protective shield.
Without caring about her image, Meng Ke was most afraid of the cold, so she took out a sweater jacket from the folding compartment of the light computer and put it on.
In line with the principle of caring for one's own people, Meng Ke turned back and asked the guard leader: "The temperature on this planet is too low at night. Do you want to put on more clothes?"
The head guard stood three steps away from Meng Ke, observing his surroundings vigilantly. After hearing what Meng Ke said, he waved his hand and said, "No need! We are all wearing combat uniforms inside, which can automatically adjust the temperature."
Meng Ke slapped her forehead and said, "That's right! I'll change too!"
The combat suit was made of metal and was uncomfortable to wear. Meng Ke thought that she had an advanced protective shield and was not short of energy, so she kept wearing cotton clothes. Cotton clothes were soft and breathable, but they had poor warmth retention. Now that she was frozen, Meng Ke immediately remembered the benefits of the combat suit.
Meng Ke didn't expect that when she changed her clothes and came down, Gongsun Jin was still standing outside.
Meng Ke was curious: "What's wrong?"
"There's a little-known flower and bird market on Beidouxing. They often sell rare varieties of seeds there. Do you want to go take a look?"
Seeds? If there’s anything in this universe that could fascinate a flower-growing soul, it’s definitely seeds.
Even though Meng Ke didn't want to have anything to do with Gongsun Jin, she still wanted to go to the flower and bird market.
“Is the flower and bird market in this city?”
"Ok!"
Meng Ke will leave here for the next city tomorrow. There is no need to go back and forth, so let's go now.
"Okay! Let's go!"
Meng Ke said that they were leaving, but they each got on a different car, going the same route.
Gongsun Jin thought Meng Ke had accepted his invitation, so when Meng Ke got in the car, he followed her.
Meng Ke turned around and saw him sitting down in a familiar manner, and was speechless.
What could she say? She couldn't just be so stingy as to kick the person out of the car, right?
She guaranteed that if she really did that, they would definitely be the headlines in tomorrow's report.
But if the two of them were photographed getting out of the car together, it would be an unclear scandal.
Meng Ke controlled his mental power to send a message to the captain of the guards. Soon, the captain of the guards came in with two soldiers.
The captain of the guards sat next to Meng Ke, two seats away from him, while the other two soldiers sat on Gongsun Jin's left and right.
Gongsun Jin raised an eyebrow: "Are you afraid that I might harm you?"
Meng Ke didn't say anything. If the man was not satisfied, he could get off the car.
Gongsun Jin naturally couldn't get off the car. If he did, how would he carry out his next plan?
Meng Ke didn't expect that she would be stopped by a group of people just after she got off the bus and walked a few steps at the flower and bird market. Those people knelt in front of Meng Ke and begged her for purification, just like the people kneeling in ancient costume dramas to kowtow to officials.
Meng Ke still had a lot of mental strength left today, so it was not difficult for him to purify these people. When he was about to take action, he was stopped by the captain of the guards.
"If you act now, it will easily cause a riot, and we may not be able to protect you then."
This trip was arranged suddenly and there was a shortage of manpower, so the captain of the guards did not dare to let Meng Ke take any risks.
Meng Ke was a man who listened to advice, so he nodded and withdrew his hand.
Gongsun Jin looked at the captain of the guards with a deep look in his eyes.
Seeing more and more people rushing over and more and more people kneeling on the ground, Meng Ke frowned and said, "Let's go! Go back!"
Without having time to say hello to Gongsun Jin, Meng Ke turned around and went back to the car.
As a result, when the people on the ground saw Mengke was about to leave, they got up and rushed towards Mengke like crazy. Mengke even heard someone cursing.
The guards immediately helped Meng Ke onto the speeding car, but unfortunately they were short of manpower and could not take ruthless action against the people rushing towards them, so the guards soon could not take care of Meng Ke.
Gongsun Jin pulled the person into his arms and made two gestures.
The Gongsun family guards waiting not far away had enough manpower. Upon receiving the order, they immediately stepped forward to set up a safety line. Anyone who dared to break in would either be knocked unconscious or thrown away. Their methods were quite brutal, but it was this brutal method that quickly intimidated the crowd who wanted to rush over.
Those who had previously knelt down pitifully to beg Meng Ke were now like evil spirits that had suddenly transformed. They could not move forward and instead pointed at Meng Ke and cursed him.
Meng wasn't one to argue with these people. She pushed Gongsun Jin aside and just stood up when she saw Roger rushing over with the police. "Are you okay? Why didn't you tell me you were coming to the flower and bird market?"
Meng Ke looked at Roger, who was barely catching his breath, with some disdain: "You're not in such good physical condition. You're still gasping for breath after riding a flying car here."
Just as Roger was about to retort, he saw Meng Ke walking away quickly.
At this time, the police station staff were about to evacuate the crowd, but Meng Ke found the police station director and said: "I want to sue those who just scolded me."
After that, she sent the previously recorded video to the head of the police station. She also sent a copy of the same information to the mastermind as evidence for the prosecution.
When she first came here, Chen Lili scolded her and compensated her with 30,000 interstellar coins. She didn't know how much compensation she could get this time.
When those who were originally unwilling to leave heard Meng Ke say that she would sue them, they looked at each other and prepared to slip away.
However, interstellar technology is so advanced that they can't just escape whenever they want.
Because Meng Ke's status is no longer what it used to be, the total fines for those who gathered together to curse her amounted to as much as three million.
Not to mention that the marginalized people don't live a rich life, even if they had the money, they would be reluctant to compensate Meng Ke.
Therefore, those who received the deduction records from the optical computer knelt down again and begged Meng Ke to let them go.
Meng Ke turned around and asked Roger, "Didn't they say that these emerging cities were allocated to scattered compatriots?"
She has already promised to purify her scattered compatriots, so there is no need for her to kneel here.
Roger glanced at Gongsun Jin and said, "Most of these people are natives, and some have just arrived from other planets."
Gongsun Jin came here too high-profile and exposed Meng Ke's whereabouts, which is why he got into all this trouble.
But Roger didn't dare to say it. He had checked Gongsun Jin's identity. He was the heir to a top family and he didn't dare to offend him.
Meng Ke lost interest in continuing to shop and turned back to the car.
As a result, when some people saw that their plea was in vain and they could not get their money back, they hated Meng Ke and attacked her again.
When the energy gun suddenly shot towards Meng Ke, it was too late for anyone to notice it because it was too fast, unless Meng Ke dodged it himself.
Meng Ke was facing the man from the side and rear, and didn't see him make a move at all. When the guard reminded him in horror, Gongsun Jin had already stood in front of Meng Ke, and the energy gun hit Gongsun Jin's waist and abdomen directly.
The guards reacted quickly and protected Meng Ke, while the police officers also quickly stepped forward to subdue the man.
Fortunately, Ms. Meng Ke is fine, otherwise we wouldn't be able to afford to compensate the alliance for a senior grower even if we sold Beidouxing.
But soon, the head of the police station became worried again because his subordinates told him that the injured person was the heir of the Gongsun family.
The Gongsun family! He was still unwilling to give up and asked again, "Which Gongsun family?"
The subordinate understood his boss's sadness, but still explained, "The grandson of a top family."
The police chief felt that his career was over and was overwhelmed with sadness.
Meng Ke reached out and touched Gongsun Jin's waist and abdomen, then took her hand back and smelled it, somewhat surprised: "Your blood is actually real."
Gongsun Jin didn't even frown when he was injured: "I'm a human being, of course I bleed when I'm injured."
Meng Ke, like a naive little girl, opened her eyes wide and asked him, "Why didn't you pull me away just now?"
Gongsun Jin paused in his attempt to stop the bleeding: "I forgot."
Meng Ke leaned in to take another look and continued to ask, "You're not wearing combat uniform?"
Gongsun Jin stopped bleeding before answering, "I put it on."
Otherwise, it was not an injury, but a shot through the waist and abdomen.
Meng Ke felt that what she was going to say next might spoil the mood, but she still felt guilty and decided to tell Gongsun Jin, "Actually, I just opened the advanced protective shield."
The scene was dead silent, and everyone looked at Meng Ke.
