Chapter 18 The Importance of Leading the Conversation
"Are you crazy?"
"Quickly"
Hearing Ronald's voice, Thomson at the front immediately denied it.
But when he turned around, he found his two companions, Ronald and Nessos, stopped in the living room on the first floor.
The two of them stopped where they were and seemed to have no intention of escaping any further.
"."
"You two."
Thomson was about to speak, but Ronald across from him stopped him.
"Keep your voice down. The guy upstairs didn't chase him down."
"It's safe now."
"Listen carefully."
Listen. What should you listen to?
A confused look crossed his face.
But soon, the confusion in Thomson's eyes turned into shock.
Because after he followed Ronald's advice, a vague voice actually appeared in his ears, until it finally turned into a clear male voice:
"Stay."
"Three guests, please listen if you can. My little request."
"The last wish of a dying man."
Someone is talking in his head!
Thump thump thump—Thomson
took three steps back in a row until his body was pressed against the end of the porch and his back could even feel the shape of the door handle. Then Thomson asked tremblingly:
"Are you a human or a ghost?"
"I told you all. , be quiet!"
This time, no matter how good-tempered a person is, it is impossible for Thomson to continue to interfere.
A scolding interrupted the businessman, and Ronald simply seized the right to speak:
"Before you say your request, please introduce yourself."
"After all, your wife and daughter are waiting for you up there!" "
This one Mr. Unknown."
"."
As soon as Ronald spoke, the air instantly became calm.
There was no movement except for Nessus who kept looking around as if he was looking for something.
A few breaths passed - it
was not until Ronald began to doubt whether the other party could hear his request that the man's voice appeared again.
"Sir, I have no ill intentions towards the three of you."
"I don't care if you are kind or malicious, even if you plan to open our skulls and suck our brains, tell us where you came from immediately!"
Ronald's tone was unprecedentedly strong. There is no room left at all.
He knows one thing very well -
at this time, he must take the initiative in the dialogue in his own hands, and there must be no gap left to the other party.
Taking advantage of this guy's absolute weakness of speaking up and making requests, and forcing him to enter his own rhythm, is the best way to guide the content of the conversation.
Only in this way can it have the greatest impact on the environment the three of them are currently in.
Just as Ronald thought, the man responded:
"Colette Noble."
"This is my name."
"Okay, Mr. Collette."
Ronald said calmly as his words almost fell to the ground. The voice sounded again:
"You can say that you have made your request."
"."
"I hope you can rescue my daughter."
"As you saw on the second floor before, her mother has completely changed. She has become a monster controlled by power, completely different from the beloved wife she once was." "
As a father, this is my only request."
"Please save my daughter."
"."
Ronald said . He didn't show his face, but he had already made a judgment in his heart.
——Too suspicious.
A narrative that seems to have no problem at first glance actually does not stand up to scrutiny at all.
But at this time, there is no time to dwell on this.
Sighing in his heart, Ronald continued:
"Then as a reward, tell us how to leave the black fog."
The man's voice immediately became surprised:
"How do you know?"
"Of course I know! Since you can be on the second floor If you discover us, you will naturally be able to detect the black fog outside."
"Even the acquisition of your abilities should be inseparable from it!" "
Otherwise, there is no reason why the black fog will start to slow down after approaching here."
" Of course, I don't plan to ask you anything else."
"Just tell me the way to escape from the black mist. It will be good for both of us." "
."
Is this too aggressive?
Hearing Ronald's further pressure, not only Nassos, but also Thomson on the other side of the porch couldn't help but have such thoughts.
If
not, it should be said that the other party will definitely be dissatisfied.
The current situation is that they are in a desperate situation, and the man's voice that appears can almost be regarded as the last straw.
This conversation is too risky!
But facts speak louder than words—
Ronald took complete control of the conversation.
Under the pressure of such strong language, the other party did not choose to break up in anger.
After only hesitating for less than half a minute, the man's voice sounded again.
"Okay. I can tell you how to escape from the black fog, but you must take my daughter away."
"Please tell me." Ronald nodded.
Immediately, the man began to describe everything that happened on the Black Mountain:
"As you can guess, our family's abilities all come from a magic book. Even the black fog outside now is caused by the loss of control of this book." "
Both I and my wife."
"Because of the power of the magic book, they are gradually falling into the magic mirror. Only my poor daughter still has a glimmer of hope." "
As for the current situation, because the magic book is in In my hands, I can guarantee that my wife cannot break into the living room, surrounding this, as long as you can rescue my daughter from the second floor and leave this mansion." "I will destroy the magic book immediately
. "
"In this case, my wife and I will die together with the collapse of the grimoire."
"You can also leave Montenegro safely and be saved together with my daughter."
"How?"
"."
Ronald looked gloomy and almost couldn't help but curse.
Not to mention sincerity, the loopholes in this guy's words are denser than a watering shower head, and there are irreparable logical loopholes everywhere.
What kind of person can have the guts to say such retarded words?
However, just as Ronald frowned, thinking about how to continue the conversation.
Thomson on the other side of the porch suddenly spoke.
Because the distance was too far, not even Nassus had time to stop him this time!
"Mr. Corrett, you should tell us how to save your daughter." "
The power of your wife is not something that the three of us ordinary people can deal with." "
I swear by the great name of the Creator, as long as we can escape Go out and we will definitely fulfill our promise."
"."
The air in the living room instantly became calm.
About ten seconds later, the man's voice spoke:
"Okay, sir."
"This matter is actually very simple."
"My daughter is now nailed to the floor on the second floor. As long as the first floor Find the corresponding position and then remove the damaged floor to save her."
"There is a ladder in the utility room by the garden, and there is no shortage of tools." "
You can do it, can't you?" "
. "
Of course." Under the almost frozen gaze of Ronald and Nessus, Thomson nodded without hesitation, "We can do it." In a
few words, the dominance established by Ronald before was Nothing left.
Things are in trouble——
