162: Chapter 151 Bestowing a Na 162: Chapter 151 Bestowing a Na “55, have you ever thought about one thing, that you’re not quite like everyone else?”
Gao Yi was a good assassin, not a good psychologist, but since he had to make 55 a normal person, he had to try to start sowhere.
But he really worried about ssing up and driving 55 insane.
55 blinked her beautiful big eyes, quite puzzled, “I’m different from others?
How so?”
“It’s your identity that’s different and then your way of thinking isn’t quite normal.”
“What’s not normal?”
“Uh, let’s take the simplest example, are you afraid of dying?”
“Not afraid.”
“That’s it, normal people are afraid to die.”
55 seed sowhat confused.
After pondering for a mont, she said, “But as an assassin, how can you carry out your tasks if you’re afraid of dying?”
Gao Yi spoke very seriously, “Is there a possibility that although I’m also an assassin, I’m very afraid of dying, so I make sure I’m safe before I take action every ti?”
55 looked utterly baffled.
She tilted her head slightly and sized up Gao Yi, “You…
afraid of dying?
You ensure your own safety with every action?”
Gao Yi suddenly felt a bit guilty.
“Uh, this…
*cough* *cough*.”
55 still gazed at Gao Yi with her beautiful big eyes.
Gao Yi thought about it and suddenly felt that trying to adjust 55’s way of thinking through the profession of an assassin didn’t seem quite right.
“Um, I have two things to tell you!”
Gao Yi took a deep breath, switched to a grave tone, then he said very seriously, “You are an assassin, but you’re the consumable type among assassins, that is, you’re sent on missions known to be suicidal, with no consideration for your life or death, as long as the target is killed, that’s what matters.
That’s the premise.
And, you were bought by , I spent ten million dollars on you.”
55 looked very surprised.
Gao Yi said in a low voice, “I know the truth is hard to accept, but I must tell you.
Also, I didn’t buy you to use you as a consumable.
I hope you can beco a normal assassin, a normal person!
I will absolutely not send you to your death, no matter what, I will not treat you as a consumable.”
Then it was ti to explain the aning of ‘consumable’, but 55 was extrely astonished, “Ten million dollars?”
“Yes, that’s…”
“You were actually willing to spend so much money to buy ?”
Gao Yi was stunned.
He looked at the surprised and satisfied 55, “That’s not the point, is it?”
“Of course, it is.
I had no money when I was at the monastery, but the nanny would give us so money to buy things.
The most I could ever get was twenty euros.”
55 covered her mouth with her hand, cheerfully saying, “Holy Mother Mary, you were actually willing to spend ten million dollars on , thank you!
You are so generous!”
Did he really pay too much?
The thought involuntarily surfaced in Gao Yi’s mind, but he quickly shook his head, prompting himself to discard this inappropriate thought.
After all, it wasn’t his own money.
Taking a deep breath, adjusting his mindset, and warning himself not to be swayed by 55’s abnormal ntality, Gao Yi continued, “The second thing is, you should have your own na.
Don’t call yourself 55 anymore, never again.”
55 looked at Gao Yi again, shocked, and said with a trembling voice, “You’re going to give a na?
You’re really willing to bestow a na upon ?”
“What?
Bestow a na?
No, no, no, listen, I’ve seen your file, I know your real na from when you were a child, if you want…”
55 suddenly stretched out her arm.
Her face filled with terror, she reached out to stop Gao Yi from continuing and said in a trembling voice, “No!
Absolutely not, I don’t want to rember my childhood, I don’t want to rember things from when I was little, what I recall, that’s my nightmare.”
55 indeed rembered her childhood, but there were deviations.
The manual provided by Revenge Blade explained that although 55’s childhood was not good, it was not extrely tragic.
However, Revenge Blade continually fed distorted values, making 55 extrely sensitive and pained by her childhood mories, making her believe that life at the monastery was as wonderful as Heaven.
But before Gao Yi verified it, he had no idea 55 was so averse to her childhood mories.
Then the real na was not to be used, and there was no need to use it.
Gao Yi nodded, then smiled at 55, “Then you can na yourself.”
55’s eyes widened again, she spoke in amazent, “Na myself?
Why would you not give a na?”
“You are free now, you can certainly pick a na you like for yourself.”
“But you’re my master!
What aning does a na have if it’s not given by you?”
“‘Life’ isn’t supposed to be like that.
Apart from parents, no one else should give nas to others.”
“And masters, masters can bestow nas.”
55 seed very stubborn, she spoke seriously, “My dear, if you don’t give a na, then what’s the aning of my life?
How can I be considered free?”
“For now, you don’t have to call ‘my dear’.”
“Okay, master.”
“Don’t call master either.”
“Okay, my dear.”
“Ah!”
Gao Yi scratched his head.
Having 55 call him ‘my dear’ was like setting up a calling program for a robot; it brought no sense of accomplishnt and only made Gao Yi feel embarrassed and tasteless.
But being called master, Gao Yi couldn’t take it, and it was also too disrespectful to 55.
“From now on, call by my na.
I’m Gao Yi.”
“Okay, Gao Yee.”
“No, no, no, Gao Yi, not Gao Yee, forget it, you call Booth.”
“Okay, Booth.”
“It’s awkward.
Forget it, just call boss!”
Gao Yi made a firm decision, simply having 55 call him “Boss” like Feng Biao and the others did.
“Okay, Boss.”
The greatest virtue of 55 was her obedience, absolute obedience.
Gao Yi took a deep breath and then said to 55, “As for your na…”
Looking at 55’s expectant eyes, Gao Yi eventually said, “You’ll be called Lucy, Lucy…
Williams.”
Why take the surna Williams?
Because Sean’s last na was Williams.
A glimr of hope shone in 55’s eyes, and with a tremulous voice, she said, “From now on, I have a na, and I’ll forever be called Lucy Williams, right?”
“Yes!”
55, no, it was Lucy now.
Lucy displayed an enchanted expression and said softly, “Thank you for giving a na, my master Boss.”
“Don’t add ‘master’ in front of ‘boss’!
You don’t have any master now, you are free!”
“Okay, Boss.”
Lucy said joyfully, “I have a na now, my na is Lucy, it’s a very nice na, and I like it.”
Enough, he couldn’t continue this conversation.
Gao Yi thought for a mont and said, “I need to get you so identification, a passport.
You need to hurry up and learn how to drive, uh, and you also need to buy a cell phone.”
“Can I?
Can I have my own cell phone?”
Lucy was greatly shocked, she curtsied and said with eager anticipation, “Thank you, master Boss.”
“Don’t add ‘master’.
Do you know how to use a cell phone?
Uh, do you know how to use a computer?”
“I do.
Although I’ve never had my own phone, I needed to learn how to use it.
Our nanny wouldn’t let us use it though, so I only know how to make calls, I don’t know how to use the internet on phones.
The nanny said, the internet is full of the devil’s temptations towards humans, it’s evil.”
It seed to be true; exposing psychologically twisted Lucy all of a sudden to the internet, it was secondary whether she would develop an addiction, but what if her already distorted thoughts beca even more twisted?
Gao Yi couldn’t watch her all the ti.
“Uh, start with a basic function phone for now.
As for internet and such, I’ll teach you slowly.”
He had to establish a correct set of values for Lucy.
To reform or, to say, reshape a personality wasn’t an overnight affair.
It had to be taken slowly.
Gao Yi felt he had done what he needed to do, although it wasn’t fully in place yet.
“Rest for now.
Later, I will ask Luca to bring you so money.
You want to buy sothing, anything, just go with him.”
“Why don’t you take ?”
“I’m going to get my gun!”
Gao Yi couldn’t help but curl his finger, excitedly saying, “My Divine Artifact is almost ready; I’m going to pick it up!
Soon I will be a sharpshooter like you.”
“Sharpshooter?
Hm, isn’t it enough to just have a hand to shoot a gun?”
Gao Yi paused, gave a sheepish smile, and turned to leave.
His pride was hurt; he didn’t want to continue chatting with Lucy.
After closing Lucy’s door, Gao Yi asked Luca standing by the door, “How long have you been eavesdropping?”
“What eavesdropping!”
Luca responded discontentedly, “I made an agreent with Wind Vane, a minimum of one percent share and up to ten percent.
I plan to give a three to five percent share based on his performance.
It’s a reasonable amount.”
“You decide on that, buy what Lucy needs and give her so money; from now on she will have a share.”
Luca nodded gravely, “You gave her a na, alright, then she definitely should have a share.
Got it.”
Gao Yi took out his cellphone and said, “I have to get Lucy an identity first.
I’ll turn to the Dark Web’s Red and Blue Group.”
“That’s possible, but I think you can go directly to Martin, he might be able to give us a discount.”
Now that he thought about it, he hadn’t dealt much with Martin since arriving in Iraq.
And now he needed to get Lucy a fake identity; who else to turn to if not Martin.
Gao Yi called Martin imdiately, and after the call was connected, he said with a smile, “Hey, buddy, we’re back.”
“Oh, you made a big score in Baghdad.
Most importantly, Grins got a promotion and a raise.
He has thanked several tis for introducing you to him.”
Martin had made a bit of money working with Gao Yi, but compared to Grins, he had received much less.
Envy practically oozed through the phone line.
Gao Yi said with a laugh, “We’ll make money in the future, too.
Here’s a business opportunity.
Make a set of docunts, no, for two people, a man and a woman.”
“Alright, but I’d have to turn to the Red and Blue Group for that.
I’m sorry, I can only give you a 2% discount, the most I can do is cut out my own commission.”
“That’s fine.”
“I’ll get on it now, and I’ll call you when I have news.”
Martin hung up, and since Grins was ntioned, Gao Yi imdiately called Grins.
After all, Grins was Gao Yi’s most important partner in Baghdad and the broader Middle East; the operation in Saudi would ultimately rely on his help.
The original plan was to retreat to Baghdad, but now that he was in Los Angeles, he should let Grins know.
When the call went through, Grins picked up and in a rush said, “Why can’t I contact you?
Where are you?
Have you been caught?
If you can, go to the nearest US Military Base imdiately, I’ll try to get you out.”
Gao Yi chuckled, “I’m in Los Angeles now, I didn’t have ti to inform you, don’t worry.”
“What?
You’re in Los Angeles?”
Grins was extrely surprised and asked, “Didn’t you get caught with Harold?
Did you get a heads up?”
Gao Yi was stunned, a bit disbelieving of his own ears, and then whispered, “Wait, what did you say?
Harold was caught?
No way?”
“You didn’t know?
Three hours ago Shaman ordered it, the National Intelligence Bureau suddenly mobilized, acted simultaneously in many places, they caught at least a hundred princes and officials, it was very sudden, Harold is among them.”
Gao Yi was shocked to his core.
The plane that took them hadn’t returned yet, but, the Number One Master was already caught?
