Chapter 14 Various old men and gang bosses(1/3)

"According to what you said, the murderer that the police station was tracking earlier was actually His Majesty's daughter?"

"Exactly. The real murderer is the lord, and Xue is just his scapegoat."

"We have conducted a certain investigation on her, and there is very little information about her. How did you obtain this information?"

The person standing in front of me is the leader of the "White Lao".

I know him.

He was the old man who sold me a bouquet of white chrysanthemums for a high price of fifty kweben.

I always feel like...everyone I meet recently is an acquaintance.

In the huge Woolworth, such dramatic events that are almost impossible to happen happen to me again and again. Fate really likes to play tricks on me. Am I right? Lady Elinor.

"Do you want evidence? Unfortunately, time is too short and I have not prepared it. However, I would rather believe that it exists than that it does not exist."

"I have no reason to change my original plan just because of your few words."

The old man's attitude was very firm. He looked away, as if he was very disgusted with what I said.

He was like this from the beginning... I originally wanted to talk to him about other topics casually to ease the tense atmosphere, but he didn't appreciate it.

It seems like he has forgotten me a long time ago.

From that moment on, I realized: he was no longer the nagging gravekeeper.

However, I don't intend to give up so soon.

"Too cautious is the same as being reckless. Now, the whereabouts of the snow are unknown, and we have to seize the opportunity. Are you willing to let your most beloved Majesty be immersed in the pain of losing a loved one?"

I felt vaguely out of breath, maybe because I wasn't used to being stared at by a large number of gang members at once.

"There is no need to change the plan. After all, there is no conflict between my proposal and your future arrangements."

"..."

The old man finally turned his attention to me.

"Although the police department has launched many large-scale manhunts, they have not released detailed information about Xue to the public, and they are unwilling to issue relevant rewards to the Wanderer Alliance, and only mobilize police officers to pursue clues. This is inconsistent with

The consistent style of the police department...Xue is a 'murderer'."

If you want to convince these guys, the first step is to point out the benefits that can be obtained.

"The Police Department deliberately concealed Xue's information, even at the expense of extra police force. The reason is self-evident - Xue has the potential to pose a threat to the Police Department, and even the Police Department did not handle it properly.

The certainty of this threat. So once we find Xue, then we can hold a big bargaining chip."

The second step is to use retreat as advance.

"I have caused you a lot of trouble in the past, so I am naturally willing to do something to compensate you. All the suggestions just mentioned are provided by me from the perspective of a 'white prison'. It is your freedom to adopt them or not."

"So, are you willing to immediately find out Robert's whereabouts for us?"

The old man finally spoke.

But he still had that nonchalant tone.

Damn it, you ungrateful fellow!

"certainly."

The third step is to accept the failure.

pretty.

"It turns out you can still say things that make me feel comfortable, which is better than 'Yellow Ashes'."

The old man scratched his bald head two or three times with his middle finger.

I knew he was laughing at me, but I was too lazy to care.

"Okay, okay...seeing as I have shared the details of the case with you before, please send more people to assist me."

"...Do you have a bad memory?"

"Excellent. You actually doubt my brain power? You are still too young."

"..."

The hesitant expression stayed on the old man's face for a while.

"That's all. Bei Lin'er alone can meet all your reasonable needs. I don't have extra manpower for you to waste."

"Hey, what do you mean? It's different from what we agreed in advance, right?"

Realizing that I had been deceived, I immediately protested.

"She and I alone will not be able to complete the task in time - this is something Miss Belin has admitted herself."

"I did promise to arrange for some people to help Bei Lin'er, but now they have other jobs."

"Huh? Why the sudden change of plans?!"

I'm a little annoyed.

"Don't you believe me? Even so, it won't do you any good."

"You are the culprit who caused me to do this."

"you......"

What an unreasonable old man!

"If you hadn't told me any more information, would I have asked them to find His Majesty's daughter?"

"...?"

"If you understand, then do as I say! Don't just stand there!"

"As commanded."

Kind old man!

...

After discussing with the leader of "White Lao", I breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not easy to finally make some progress.

However, it is not enough yet, we can only take one step at a time.

"Now that we've done everything we need to do, we should be able to go back, right?"

I asked Miss Bellinger with a comfortable look on my face.

"Yes."

"Then...why are they still surrounding me?"

I tried my best to avoid the eyes of the many gang members around me.

"Because you didn't give them a 'thank you'."

"Thank you?"

"We helped you successfully meet our boss, so it's normal for us to accept some 'thank you' gifts, isn't it?"

Henrik looked at me with a smile.

"Well, I'm very grateful..."

Knowing that I was in the wrong, I was very helpless, so I put my hand in my pocket and took it out... Then I decided to reject him.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't bring any money, could you—"

"Then use it to top up your numbers!"

Before I finished speaking, a ray of silver light flashed across my eyes——

[The chance of being stabbed by a knife is 100%]

[The chance of successfully dodging backward is 13%]

[The chance of successful resistance is 11%]

Oops......!

I was about to react, but my body suddenly lost control.

My limbs couldn't control themselves and I felt a sharp pain.

"hiss......"

When I opened my eyes again, I was stunned:

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!

On Henrik's knife is mine...

No wonder I suddenly lost half of my vision.

"Hahahahaha! Comfortable!"
To be continued...
