Overturned Tower

"--master?"

Hangzhou was silent for a while, then he snorted and said coldly: "It's a joke. No one can be my master."

There was no blood-red flame igniting in his pupils, but there seemed to be anger that could not be dissipated, clinging to the irises like dead flesh.

"I obey my godfather because he is more powerful than me now.

"I follow his orders because I am learning his every move and complementing myself. It is also because there are some things that only he can do. For example, to unite everyone...for example, to accept people from Uptown into the family '.

"There's no doubt that I couldn't do that kind of thing."

Hangsha criticized himself without euphemism: "I don't have that kind of tolerance, nor that kind of charm. I have become accustomed to the leadership life of the White Lion Group, and my vision has become too narrow and can only accommodate the people around me; I also He doesn't have the patience to interact with outsiders, nor the verbal ability to persuade them; in terms of leadership and command abilities, they are limited to small organizations like the White Lion Group... He is probably not even as good as that woman from Malt Liquor.

"Even the purity of my anger cannot compare to that of the Godfather. That man is a person who is angry for the world from the bottom of his heart... Even the way of the furnace, he has gone further than me. I will definitely pursue it. less than the height."

Although the white lion sincerely praised the godfather, others present always felt a strange sense of dislocation:

Because what was revealed in the strangled words was neither flattery nor loyalty... what was ignited in his eyes was the flame called "ambition".

"That's why I want to follow him. Just like the young people in the White Lion Group, it is much better for them to follow me than to follow the leaders of those small organizations. Because I will protect them and will not crush them to death easily - - People are born to follow the strongest. Following the weak will only bring misfortune, because the weak and the weak will only bring greater disasters together.

"I will learn every move he makes and hone my own abilities. In the future, one day... when the godfather becomes weak, I may not be able to sit in that position."

Even in front of the inferiors recruited by his godfather, Strangler never hides his ambitions.

That is exactly the pride of strangulation.

"Aren't you worried about me telling my godfather?"

A mechanical synthesized sound with noise came from the helmet worn by the inferior.

Strangler dismissed this: "You can just say it, you inferior.

"The time you have known the Godfather is too short. You cannot understand the Godfather's caliber... He is completely different from you corporate dogs from uptown.

"From the first time I met him, I knew that this man had extraordinary magnanimity. He already knew that I opened my fangs and breathed out hot breath towards him, but he was not afraid or shy about it.

“He looked squarely at my wildness, accepted the fact that I was murderous and wild toward him, and knew that I was not completely loyal to him… He promised me that I could betray him when I saw fit.

"——Because the godfather has extraordinary self-confidence. He is confident that I will never betray him...because he will never show any flaws."

Even though his words were full of murderous intent towards the godfather, and his eyebrows were full of unconcealed wildness...

Although he himself said that he had never tamed the godfather——

But in Dr. Paradise's view, the white lion had already chosen to succumb unknowingly.

His words were full of admiration that even he himself did not admit. Even though he was unwilling to do so, he had to admit that he had already succumbed to the rule of his godfather.

"As for what you said...what does he want to make this world look like?"

Strangler glanced at the detective and sneered: "Then I might as well tell you.

"He told me an analogy. The circus will tame lions to allow them to perform some performances, but no matter how high the level of taming is, the lion will always attack the lion handler. Because a lion can never be 'loyal' - —Since he has never sworn allegiance, there is no such thing as betrayal.

"I asked him, what are you going to do with me, a lion that will never be tamed?

"He said, I'm going to make you human."

When Hangsha said this, his tone unconsciously became calmer.

What surprised Dr. Paradise and the Inferior was...

Strangler's originally angry face and the unconcealed wild fire in his eyes turned calm at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The crazy, disorderly and violent temperament in Strangler, and the dangerous feeling of madness are also dissipating, and he gradually becomes rational.

At that moment, he seemed to have changed from "a standing lion" to "a man with a lion's head."

"The Godfather said...I'm going to make you tame yourself. I'm going to make you a person wearing a lion puppet, a person pretending to be a lion.

"He said, I want you beasts to know from the bottom of your heart... how good it is to be a human being."

Strangler looked at the detective and said word by word: "What the Godfather wants to create is a world where lions can be happy and free without biting off the lion tamer's head. A world of equality, a world without discrimination, A world where you can survive without having to sell your soul. That is the world that ordinary people want.

"I remember every word the Godfather said, every word is correct. Because every word he said comes from the heart, and it can really fall on the ground. It is not some pretense or performance, nor is it an empty prayer. and philosophy.

"The Godfather is essentially different from you people with glowing auras. You people, you pray to the gods in a decent manner, but you steal power by deceiving the gods... I look down on you.

"What kind of cyber immortality are you pursuing? Even if there is no such thing as the sane heavy industry you mentioned, I don't think it is important.

"What people are pursuing is not eternal life at all, but happiness. You have deliberately confused this concept and only promised eternal life, but not what kind of eternal life it is... In my opinion, you are as despicable as Theosophy Heavy Industry.

"They are all liars. There is no difference between deceiving others into trusting you, or deceiving others into working for you. They are all deceiving people, and they are all deceiving people's hearts. What's the difference?"

This is a rationality that strangulation would never have on ordinary days.

Only when he mentioned the Godfather, could he think and speak so calmly.

From this point of view, the Godfather did fulfill his promise - he tried to teach the "beast" into a "man".

The detective stared at Strangler, as if shaken by his words. It was as if he felt the charm of the godfather in Strangler's mouth... He took a deep breath.

"So that's it..."

The detective shook his head, as if he had lost interest in continuing the conversation with Strangler, and stood up to say goodbye.

But just as the detective was walking at the door, the middle-aged man suddenly looked back at Strangler.

"Let me explain to you, I am not the same person as those in the church."

The detective looked at the strangulation and said calmly: "The power of my Holy Order is not obtained by relying on the God of Deception. It is obtained by myself.

"The godfather you talk about does have a great ideal. But if one day, for the sake of this ideal, he willfully harm the world and hurt innocent people indiscriminately... I will still stand up to stop him and kill him.

"I am a detective, and the meaning of life is to pursue the truth... I am a ghost that only exists in the past. The enemy of elves and dragons.

"If the godfather's influence expands infinitely, and he eventually becomes a tyrant who dominates the world like elves and dragons - if the godfather has no enemies, then I will become your godfather's biggest enemy."
