Chapter 334: Chapter 332 Encounter with Star Thief

"Ten hours."

Nian Shutong politely thanked him after hearing the answer.

Ten hours, not bad.

She looked around at the few people and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Everyone, including Ha Ha, shook their heads.

They had all come from a long street filled with food stalls, having eaten their way from one end to the other.

Not to mention, they had only come out after having dinner, and it was now time to sleep.

Nian Shutong felt that nobody should be too hungry, but it was still good to ask.

She looked at Dou Dou, who appeared a bit sleepy.

Nian Shutong stood up briskly, and as the Guard Captain stepped forward to grab her wrist.

But with a twist of her wrist, the Guard Captain grasped at air, standing there dumbfounded.

How did she do that?

At that moment, Nian Shutong had already pulled over a large box and from her own Space Button, took out bedding and a pillow.

She neatly made a soft bed and patted it, saying to Dou Dou, "Dou Dou, go to sleep."

"Thank you, auntie."

Dou Dou slid off the chair, obediently took off his coat, drank some mouthwash, quickly brushed his teeth, and comfortably lay down.

Dou Dou wasn’t scared at all and quickly fell asleep.

In his little mind, any place with his auntie was the safest place.

Nian Shutong, with one hand, pulled a fixed chair towards her, guarding next to Dou Dou, and closed her eyes.

The Guard Captain, who had been standing the whole time, finally moved. He tugged at a chair next to him, gradually using more force, but the chair didn’t budge an inch.

It’s all over.

That was the only thought in the Guard Captain’s mind; he felt they had kicked the iron plate.

This wasn’t some powerless waste, but rather a super capable big shot, wasn’t it?

Originally, when he saw Nian Shutong stand up, the Guard Captain thought she was trying to escape, but now he didn’t want to talk at all and didn’t dare stop them from doing anything.

Whatever, he couldn’t beat them anyway.

Ha Ha and Fu Yunhe were both sitting in their chairs, one actually asleep, and the other resting with his eyes closed.

About five hours into their journey, the cargo starship suddenly jolted violently.

At that jolt, Fu Yunhe and Nian Shutong both immediately opened their eyes, even Little Pink Pig, normally unnoticeable, suddenly became a bit more alert.

At that moment, the Guard Captain finally calmed down a bit and said, "It must have been a space stream, it’s fine now."

Nian Shutong completely ignored the Guard Captain and looked towards Fu Yunhe.

Fu Yunhe immediately turned on his Light Computer, which showed the situation ahead of the cargo starship.

At that point, several cargo holds’ boxes had been opened, apparently from the inside.

Fu Yunhe looked further ahead, where some of the cargo hold guards were now kneeling, their hands bound.

Two people wielding laser guns were watching over them.

Further ahead, Fu Yunhe could no longer see the visuals, as the camera had been blocked.

However, that didn’t stop Fu Yunhe, somehow, they could now even hear noises.

"Boss, Old Thief Lian really had quite a few good things on this ship."

"Boss, we finally have some gains this time."

"Ha ha ha! Boss’s plan was the best, hiding among their cargo first."

"Xiao Si’s skills are not bad either, otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to come aboard smoothly."

"Eldest, is everything under control, where are we heading down?"

Several people up front were chattering back and forth, and Shutong, who was eavesdropping from the side, only asked the Guard Captain one question.

"Your Eldest..."

The Guard Captain knew the moment Fu Yunhe displayed his skills that today’s news was definitely sent by him to their boss.

"Our boss’s surname is Lian, the one they call Old Thief Lian."

The Guard Captain divulged without any pressure.

Shutong got the gist and continued to listen to the people’s conversation.

"Eldest, there’s food in this cargo hold, should we send some to the orphanage?"

"Send."

A single word, ’send’, spoken in a somewhat deep... female voice.

Shutong was indeed intrigued; these star thieves, sounding innocently foolish, seemed to carry a touch of robbing the rich to help the poor.

Let’s see how things go.

When they had eavesdropped enough, Shutong gestured to Fu Yunhe to turn off the Light Computer, the following maneuvers left the Guard Captain feeling utterly despondent and speechless.

When the cabin door where Shutong was located opened, the leader was a woman with a buzz cut, carrying a Heavy Sword, and wearing unknown armor.

Behind the woman followed several burly men, somewhat resembling men from the Mongolian Grassland.

Each of them looked fierce, but that fierceness was shattered the moment they spoke.

"Eldest, there are hostages."

"There’s even a three-year-old child, Old thief Lian is really wicked... wicked... what kind of heart does he have?"

The woman addressed as Eldest, with the Heavy Sword resting on the shoulder of the Guard Captain, spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.

"What are they doing?"

The Guard Captain really wanted to cry, yet he held it back and pointed at a few hostages, bound hand and foot, and recited the lines he had rehearsed in his mind.

"They offended Boss Lian’s daughter, and are being sent to work on the trash star."

The woman glanced at the two good-looking individuals and then at the three-year-old Dou Dou and the somewhat foolish-looking Ha Ha. This group didn’t seem to have much of a threat.

"Unbind them."

At the woman’s command, a man behind her immediately stepped forward, first untying Dou Dou.

"Ah, how inhuman, tying up a child so tightly."

The Guard Captain could only force a smile. How could he dare to tie them?

It was Little Douding who insisted that tying them loosely looked unbelievable, and thus tightened it up. But he wouldn’t dare speak out; nobody in the room was someone he could afford to offend.

Even those few sitting on the ground were mystifying and unpredictable.

He himself didn’t know if he could still make it back alive.

Meanwhile, Shutong’s hands and feet were also untied, and she first thanked the woman.

The woman merely nodded slightly, not saying much, and instructed the men behind her to start collecting the cargo from the warehouse.

Their Space Buttons were limited, so they could only take a fraction of the items, less than one-tenth.

They had to be selective.

Shutong, leading Dou Dou and followed by Fu Yunhe holding Little Pink Pig, and Ha Ha, then walked around with these folks.

As for the Guard Captain, he was left tied up in place, unable to move.

After they had collected everything, the starship eventually came to a stop.

Shutong and the star thieves disembarked the starship together, watching as the woman led her subordinates towards a rickety small starship to depart.

This starship was even more dilapidated than the one they had left the Nian Family with.

"Why are you following us?"
