Chapter 19
The conversation between Anger and the man is over.
The living room was eerily quiet.
Ronald and Nessus both stood silent. Only Thomson, who had just negotiated with the man, still had the joy of seeing hope of survival on his face. He even wanted to tell the other two people the good news.
"Two, let's"
"Okay, Thomson." Nessos interrupted Xingshang directly, "After all, you don't understand these things, so I don't intend to complain about your recklessness, but there is only one thing, the next move Please don't make your own decisions."
"Huh?"
Faced with Nessos' clear-cut rebuke, Thomson didn't react immediately.
But soon, the middle-aged merchant, who thought he understood everything, showed an expression of sudden realization on his face.
"No, no, no, Nessos, you can't do this."
"It was understandable before that we abandoned our companions and ran away alone, but now we can obviously help this poor father and his daughter, why should we refuse?" It turned out that
in Tom's case , Xun's understanding.
He thought it was foolish of Nassus and Ronald to abandon the father and daughter and run away alone
!
"Tsk—"
Nessus spat on the floor angrily, and took two hurried steps to reach Thomson.
Before Hong Shang could react, he grabbed the other man's collar with one hand and roughly lifted the middle-aged man up from the floor of the porch.
"I said."
"Don't you want to live anymore?"
A confused Thomson stared at Nassos in horror. In his companion's steel-blue pupils, he saw full anger and the
most intense look on his face. The murderous intention hidden at the bottom!
"Nainaissus!"
"What do you want to do? Put me down first, okay?"
"Aren't we companions?"
Looking at the middle-aged man in his hands who still didn't realize his mistake, Nainaissus could even feel himself The blood was rising:
"Who would."
At this time, Ronald came over and patted Nessus on the shoulder:
"Okay, there's no point getting angry with him now."
"It's better to save your energy and think about us. What should we do next?"
Pat -
Following Ronald's persuasion, Nessos let go and let the merchant fall to the ground. He gritted his teeth and cursed:
"What else can I do?"
"Since this guy agreed to the other party's request, If you ask, let him save the 'people' by himself!"
At this point, Nessos became even more angry.
Pointing at Thomson on the ground, he continued to sigh at Ronald beside him:
"You have been negotiating with the other party for so long, and this guy didn't even notice that during the entire conversation, you never promised the other party anything. Demand this! Even the livestock in Maria's Manor will not send themselves to the chopping block in such a stupid way!" As soon as the
words came out, Thomson on the ground was stunned.
Thinking back carefully, when Ronald talked to that man before, it seemed that he really didn't agree to any of the other party's requests.
Because Ronald dominated the rhythm of the conversation, before he interrupted.
Basically, Ronald asked, and then the other party answered. Even if the man made a request, Ronald would evade it by changing the subject.
All those who directly agreed to the other party’s request were all said by myself!
Is there really something wrong with me?
"."
After hesitating, Thomson began to defend himself:
"I didn't mean it!"
"Besides, the other party is not a bad person."
"That's enough!"
Nessos interrupted Thomson directly. Defense:
"Didn't you see how that woman was eroded just now?"
"According to what the man said, as the direct holder of the grimoire, how can this guy be a normal person?" "
His request Is it so worthy of your belief?"
"."
After asking three consecutive questions full of anger, Thomson was completely dumbfounded.
It was precisely because of these words that Ronald took a deep look at Nassos.
——Although he didn’t hit the point, this guy really knew a lot of things.
After pondering for a moment, Ronald asked:
"So, we must act according to the requirements in the conversation now?"
"Not necessarily." Nassos shook his head, "But just in case, the other party's conversation method has some There may be a hidden contract, and although the effect is not too strong, it is definitely a trouble."
After explaining to Ronald, Nessos glanced at Thomson fiercely.
"The bad guy."
"I'm sorry."
This time, Thomson also realized his mistake and no longer defended himself like before.
"Then what should we do now?"
"Ah!"
Suddenly, the businessman who got up from the ground was startled, and he seemed to have thought of something in his fearful eyes:
"Wouldn't that person hear us when we talk here?"
"Oh! ——"
Ronald sighed.
You can say that this guy is smart, but when he did something bad just now, it was no longer possible. You should say that this guy is stupid, but he is not that completely stupid.
Waving his hands feebly, he opened his mouth to explain:
"Don't worry, this guy doesn't have the ability to monitor us all the time." "
Otherwise, he could contact us in this way the moment he enters the mansion."
Listening to Luo Thomson was still uneasy about Nader's explanation:
"But he"
"There's nothing good about him." Ronald shook his head: "Think carefully, when did this guy contact us."
"When."
"When we were escaping."
"To be more precise." Listening to the two people's questions and answers, Nessos also helped to explain, "We alerted the crazy woman. After she made a noise, this guy Contacted us."
"Take a step back."
"If he can monitor us all the time, then in theory he can also perfectly understand the movements of his wife. In this case, do he still need our help to save his daughter?"
" ."
In this way, Thomson completely understood.
"So as long as we don't make any noise, we will basically not attract his attention."
Nessos was a little speechless, but still nodded:
"That's okay with your understanding."
"Okay, let's hurry up. Let's do it."
At this time, Ronald pointed to the night outside the window.
Between exploring the second floor and negotiating with the man, almost a quarter of an hour had passed due to delays on both sides.
Under the constant erosion of the thick black fog, no scenery can be seen around the Black Mountain. The rolling darkness is almost a step away from the outermost garden of the mansion.
"Let's go."
Seeing the darkness outside the window, Nassos immediately understood what Ronald meant.
He picked up his lamp and walked out, still walking at the front of the team.
Thomson followed closely behind.
"."
Ronald, who was last, looked at the living room thoughtfully.
After picking out some pieces of firewood by the fireplace, he followed.
