Chapter 100 The First Test
"You all don't come from rich families, you've all suffered and endured hardships, so you don't need me to tell you what to do now, right?"

The flawless man glanced at the children. Although he looked very peaceful, he seemed to have a kind of magic. The struggling children quickly calmed down.

Feng Xue also stopped her movements and waited quietly for the man to continue. The man also continued at this time:

"Very good! It seems that my vision is correct. Being smart is a very good quality. It has been a while since you left the orphanage where you grew up. How have you been these days? I believe you should have your own answer. Now, I will give you another chance..."

The man's words were plain, but they had a quality that went straight to the heart. All the children present were unconsciously attracted by his narration, and Feng Xue, on the other hand, keenly sensed the tentacles that were penetrating her G·I force field.

"Command architecture? If it's just this level, it's not enough to affect me." Feng Xue secretly adjusted his G·I force field, making changes in coordination with the opponent's strength, while pretending to be affected. Fortunately, in his twenty years of life as a killer, he had practiced all branches of architecture to the extreme that a questioner could achieve. Otherwise, facing this kind of complex branch that ordinary shadow chasers might not be able to master, he could only accept the brainwashing.

However, with the subtle manipulation, the man did not notice his abnormality, and quickly ended his speech, which was roughly "studying is hard and tiring, it is better to change careers and blend into society", and turned the topic back to the right track -

"Like I said before, I will teach you the skills to make money, but the premise is that you have the talent for it. The first test today, whether you cooperate with each other or find a way on your own, untie the rope and then come to me to get today's lunch. There are a total of twenty people here, and there are only fifteen lunch boxes. If I wait too long, I might eat a few boxes."

Having said that, he sat down on a pile of tires with his arms and legs spread out, took out lunch boxes from his backpack, and placed them on the gasoline barrel in front of him. However, unlike what he said, there were sixteen lunch boxes here.

Click...

The sound of the plastic box lid being opened was heard, and a faint aroma of rice mixed with the smell of steam wafted past the nose. The man ate the lunch box at just the right temperature without any scruples. In an instant, Feng Xue heard bursts of stomach rumblings from the children around him.

"Should we go faster? Or be more cautious?" Feeling his friend starting to pupate again, Feng Xue's mind was quickly thinking about these questions. Then he realized that he shouldn't think too complicatedly.

Since you have "accepted" the other party's brainwashing, you must remain "honest". If your concealment of your abilities is exposed, or if it is seen that you have certain stealing skills but do not reveal them, it will instead cause fear.

Thinking of this, Feng Xue stopped thinking about it and applied force along the direction of the knot with his wrist. With slight pain, his fingers had already touched the knot with the help of this slight displacement.

Although there are many simpler techniques, those that require greater endurance and faster reaction speed are obviously too beyond the scope of a child, and he does not want his background to be doubted.

But this is enough now. In just seven seconds, Feng Xue freed his hands, tore off the tape on his mouth, and untied the rope around his ankles. The whole process took only eleven seconds.

"Sir, I'm done." Feng Xue walked quickly to the man and said politely. The man looked at Feng Xue with a playful look in his eyes. The G.I force field turned into tentacles and moved around him, as if sensing his emotional changes. He reached out and picked up a lunch box and handed it to Feng Xue, asking:
"Have you practiced before?"

Although Feng Xue was not very clear about the character he was playing now, the orphan and twelve years old mentioned by the other party were enough for him to answer. He took the lunch box and chopsticks with both hands, and said with a little pride: "When I was 'punished' in the past, I was always tied up."

He put more emphasis on the punishment, making it unclear whether it was a real punishment, bullying among the children in the orphanage, or something that happened in the school.

The man was not surprised to hear this, and even patted the tire beside him kindly, indicating that he could sit over there, and said:

"Are you hungry? Eat as much as you want. If you don't have enough, there's more here!"

As he spoke, he pointed his chin at the remaining lunch boxes on the oil drum, and the children, who had already begun to eat cricket pupae like crazy, suddenly became more active.

Feng Xue still maintained the demeanor of a polite and good child. He thanked him respectfully, then squatted obediently beside the man, opened his lunch box and started eating.

What surprised him was that the quality of this lunch box was unexpectedly high. The perfectly steamed rice was topped with a balanced mix of meat and vegetable side dishes. The seasoning was not the heavy oil, salt and spicy flavor of the cheap lunch boxes in his previous life, but was a careful combination. The only drawback was probably that the quantity was a little small.

"Sure enough, he is not an ordinary character." Feng Xue thought to himself, but controlled the speed of eating. Although the hunger feedback from this body was already very strong, he knew very well that the more times like this, the more he should chew slowly.

Although the man did not show any expression towards Feng Xue's behavior, from the changes in the G·I force field, it can be seen that he is very satisfied. As for why a child can be so sensible...

Just kidding, if a child who grew up in an orphanage doesn’t even know how to “be polite in front of adults” and “chew slowly when hungry”, he can’t be called “smart”.

Feng Xue finished her lunch and felt how full she was. She found that she was still a little hungry, so she looked at the man for instructions. The man smiled and nodded.
"Don't look at me. I told you, if you're not full, you can continue to take it. Of course, you can only eat it."

"Thank you, sir." Feng Xue nodded, picked up a lunch box and continued to eat. He did not show qualities such as humility or caring for his companions. In other words, since the man had given this rule of those who are more capable get more, he had no intention of letting these children love each other, not to mention that the number of these lunch boxes was not enough. There was no difference between being hated by five people and being hated by six or seven people.

"Sir! I'm fine!" Just when Feng Xue had almost finished the second box of lunch, the second friend who had escaped finally tore off the tape on his face. He shook off the ropes on his feet and ran up quickly.

However, he did not go straight to get the lunch box. Instead, he rushed out a few steps and stopped after confirming that there were no other competitors around him. It was not until the man signaled that he picked up the lunch box and started eating in small bites...
