Doomsday Code
Chapter 86 Heart knot
Finier never thought that her father would become so strange. In her eyes, her father had always been a good man.
He was usually humble and polite to people when walking in the town, and in order to ease the economic pressure on the people in the territory, he often granted tax reductions and exemptions.
This is also why Baron Kekeber is the poorest among all the barons. He cannot even afford to buy a mansion in Huidun City.
Although her father did not have much time to accompany her, he was devoted to governing the territory and was also deeply loved by the people in the territory.
But now her father's cold words shattered her view of him as a kind and good man.
However, Finier did not feel that her father had not changed. He was still the baron who was busy working to make the people in the territory live a better life.
As a baron, he governed his territory wholeheartedly and took care of every citizen under his rule.
At the same time, as a noble, it was normal for him to look down on slaves, who were deprived of even the most basic human rights.
So according to the moral values of this world, Baron Cockeber is a very perfect nobleman, and also a nobleman with conscience.
He would reduce taxes for the civilians in his territory, even though he, a great earl, still had to wear patched clothes.
Finier, who has always been innocent, has lived in the warm world built for her by the Baron since she was a child.
There are only noble servants and ordinary people here, and everyone lives happily together because everyone has the same basic human rights in terms of law and morality.
In this world, they are all human beings, so as a baron, Kekeber can treat them equally, which shows his rare brilliance of humanity.
The slave Chen Cheng was a sudden stain, and the people and the nobles looked at him with normal eyes.
Because slaves have no human rights, in the laws and morals of this world they are not even considered human beings, but just a commodity.
But Finier, the girl who lived in a beautiful dream, had no idea that Baron Kekeber's poverty meant that she had no access to slaves when she was young.
She always believed that slaves were the same as domestic servants and that they could live together in harmony.
It can be said that this time, Finier has separated herself from the ordinary people of this world. Her attitude towards Chen Cheng just now and before in the academy has already betrayed her class. It can be said that this is a very serious and grave matter.
At this time, Chen Cheng did not show any emotions such as anger, because as a high-level research talent in the country, he was smart and naturally very clear about sensitive things such as identity.
And he naturally knew that Baron Kekeber did this to protect Finier.
Because no matter when, a person who betrays the most powerful class in existing society will not have a good end, no matter how just the reason for your betrayal is.
The Shang Dynasty was a slave society at that time, but King Di Xin of Shang, as the country's largest slave owner, betrayed this class.
He launched a slave liberation movement, abandoned the cruel slave sacrifice system of the past, and allowed capable slaves to escape their slavery with their talents and participate in national affairs.
However, in the end he was spurned by all the slave owners in the world, including his brothers and uncle. Finally, the huge Shang Kingdom perished faster than the Kingdom of Thorns in this world.
In just half a day, the huge Shang Dynasty disappeared, and the largest slave owner Zhou came onto the stage of history.
Of course, if we want to truly eliminate these, as Chen Cheng had thought before, we must develop the productivity of this world and let them see the horror of industrial monsters.
So what Finier did was considered heresy in everyone's eyes, and becoming a heretic is often the beginning of death.
Chen Cheng didn't look at Finier. He lowered his head and then slapped himself hard.
This slap was not his punishment for himself.
Instead, he reminded himself not to daydream when he had no ability, and not to think that the ups and downs in life described in novels would happen in reality.
Because no matter what identity he has, he is a public enemy in this world. Now that he has become a public enemy, the only thing he has to do is to clear his identity. This will not only benefit himself but also the people around him.
Only by integrating can we talk about change.
After being slapped, Chen Cheng's mind became much clearer. At least he had found a way to clear his name, which was a hundred times better than hiding in the mountains because of his identity before.
When Kekebo saw what Chen Cheng did, he knew that Chen Cheng had thought of all this with his wisdom.
He was not a cruel person, otherwise after Chen Cheng was bought, he should not have stayed with Finier at the first moment, but should have been sent to a slave training center for slave training.
Before this, the harshest thing he had done to Chen Cheng was to be indifferent to him, and he had never verbally insulted Chen Cheng.
To be honest, if he hadn't just witnessed the intimate behavior between the two of them, he would have turned a blind eye and let it go.
After all, after his investigation of Chen Cheng these days, he also knew that Chen Cheng was on a path of advancement that he had never taken before. Perhaps when he succeeded one day, his own Finnel could be safely handed over to him.
The fact that he could have such an idea was enough to show that Kekeber had a broad mind and vision far beyond that of ordinary people.
But the behavior just now was too dangerous. He was also afraid that his daughter really had some inappropriate thoughts about Chen Cheng at this time. Otherwise, he would have no choice but to bear the pain and force someone to kill Chen Cheng.
At this time, the guards in the mansion heard the noise and rushed over, while the old butler Carter went out and sent the guards away.
When Chen Cheng saw this situation, he knew that Baron Kekeber had no intention of killing him. At the same time, he also knew how stupid his initiative just now was.
He is not a god, but just an ordinary person. To survive in this world as an ordinary person is to adapt to the rules of this world, at least until he has the ability to break it.
Finier, who was watching all this, couldn't understand why this happened. She thought her father would coldly order someone to drag Chen Cheng out and behead him.
However, his father did not do so, and Chen Cheng slapped him hard in the face.
Seeing Chen Cheng's somewhat lonely expression, the fighting spirit surrounding Baron Kekeber's body dissipated.
Then he came to Chen Cheng and wanted to pat him on the shoulder. However, seeing this, Finier immediately came to Chen Cheng and stood in front of Baron Kekeber.
Seeing his daughter behaving like this, to be honest, he felt relieved, sad and scared at the same time.
"Well, father hopes that you can always keep this innocence."
As he spoke, Kekeber reached out and touched Finier's face, then turned around and left with a somewhat lonely look.
"Sophia, Jenny, you two should clean up a room for the young lady."
At this moment, in the house, two lines of tears rolled down Finier's cheeks unconsciously, because she knew very well that what she feared most had happened. Her father and this society would never accept a slave.
Looking at Finier like this, Chen Cheng wanted to reach out and wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but he also knew that the most important thing he should do now was to keep a safe distance from Finier.
To be honest, as a man who was used to being free, the current atmosphere made him feel extremely depressed.
And this repression does not come from someone, but from the development process of human society in this world.
"Don't cry. It's not pretty to have swollen eyes. Have a good sleep tonight. Don't worry, I will always be your little slave."
After saying that, Chen Cheng turned around and left Finier's room.
Just now he figured it out. His first plan was to clear his identity and learn the unique magical knowledge in this world.
It’s just that there are some minor incidents in the process, but all of this does not conflict with his previous goals.
So Chen Cheng would not think of retreating, but he wanted to control the development of things. At least now Finier is still a little loli.
After thinking all this through, Chen Cheng suddenly felt a lot lighter, and the previous feeling of depression was also relieved a lot.
After hearing what Chen Cheng said, Finier stopped crying and started laughing. She was a smart girl, and her previous anxiety came from her lack of understanding of Chen Cheng's inner world.
She thought Chen Cheng would not be able to bear these grievances and would leave her, but she did not have the ability to change these things so she was sad.
Now that Chen Cheng's words have revealed his true intentions, even if Chen Cheng leaves the Kekeber family now, she will not be as worried as before.
At least Brown will always be her little slave, at least nothing will change.
As for her own family, she, Finier, is the future heir, and she herself is the family.
