Chapter 83 Appointment
In the wilderness, the wind is blowing.
Shen Yi stood on the black lightning car, looking down at Scarface from above.
His eyes were full of sympathy, pity, anger, and puzzlement.
The windbreaker was flying in the strong wind, and it showed a floating figure. After a while, Scarface sighed: "You already knew that, right?"
"Yes." Shen Yi replied lightly.
"when?"
"When you return my equipment."
Scar's face froze: "So early? How could you doubt me at that time?"
"Because you shouldn't return my puppet." Shen Yi shook his head and sighed, "You should know that most people in this world don't cherish things that don't belong to them."
Scarface froze for a moment.
He never imagined how shocked Shen Yi would be when he saw him returning the puppet worm.
For Shen Yi, when he handed the puppet worm to Scarface, he didn't expect Scarface to return it to him.
How much people cherish an item always depends first on whether it belongs to them or not. This is like public goods are always unloved, eating and drinking with public funds is always extravagant, and consumption with public funds is always sky-high... It's not your own money, so you don't feel bad about spending it.
Although the value of the puppet is not high, it still helps Tina to complete the task, and it can further increase her chances of completing the task. There is no reason for Scarface not to use it. So what made Scarface give up using puppet bugs?
At that time, Shen Yi only thought of one reason - unless he already thought it was in his own pocket.
He was saving for himself, not for Shen Yi.
Perhaps in his thinking, when fourteen scattered adventurers unite to attack Shen Yi from behind, the Broken Blade team, which lost its equipment and main manpower, is likely to be completely wiped out.
It doesn't matter if there are one or two alive, he can kill again... as a friend, stab him in the back.
Then everything that was ever lent to him belonged to him.
Perhaps it was for this reason that Scarface finally returned to Lu Gaoyin-he did not complete the task too late, but too early. Early enough for him to go to the Royal Prison again, hide in a secret corner, observe everything, and play the role of supplementary knife when necessary...
Of course, all of this is Shen Yi's speculation.
He really didn't want to doubt Scarface. After all, that was his instructor. Although he was rude, violent, and ruthless, he always helped him. Although he paid interest for the help he received, there was always a sense of mutual help.
He didn't want to doubt, but he couldn't help doubting it. From the analysis of the degree of benefit after death, and from the current signs, all the spearheads were pointed at Scarface.
Of course, there is a problem that cannot be explained, and that is how Scarface knows the location of the Royal Prison. Since this is the world of the bloody city, Shen Yi suspects that the scar face should have some kind of props that can detect the target address. This requires him to find a way to force this prop out.
Because of this, he adopted a series of methods. He first asked Scarface to investigate the four members of Dragon Tooth Team, and then deliberately ordered Huang Tianyang to conceal the location of the Spider Cave.
In this way, Scarface would have a chance to frame Huang Tianyang and the others. As long as the location of the Spider Cave doesn't appear for a day, Scarface will sooner or later accuse Huang Tianyang and the others of deliberately concealing it - he knows the search direction of Huang Tianyang and others, and he can even know the location of the Spider Cave. As long as he wants, he can overlap these two points at any time, so as to confirm the fact that the Dragon Fang team concealed the location of the spider cave.
This is what Shen Yi wants.
However, Scarface didn't jump out for a long time.
Perhaps it was because he felt that this evidence was not enough to confirm that they betrayed Shen Yi, or it might be because the temptation of the Spider Cave was not great, and it was more likely that he was cautious enough to resolutely refuse to reveal that he had the astrolabe. Anyway, Scar The face was not hurriedly planted because of this.
It wasn't until Shen Yi confirmed the plan to hunt Diablo that he began to think that this plan might be more radical—to force Scarface with the task that was about to be snatched away.
Of course, the premise is that Scarface has completed the planting work, and it is confirmed that no one will doubt him anymore.
That note is the proof.
At this moment, Shen Yi looked at the note and smiled slightly: "I'm sure that the handwriting on it is different from your original handwriting, but what does it matter? This note cannot be dropped by Huang Tianyang and the others, but Only you took it out. You didn’t participate in that Scattered Alliance. If you hadn’t betrayed us, you would never have seen the handwriting on that note, let alone copied it... I just wanted to decide The evidence of the astrolabe, but you sent me one more thing."
Following his words, four figures including Huang Tianyang appeared in the distance.
Scarface trembled: "Didn't they go to the Spider Forest?"
"Of course I didn't go, this matter has nothing to do with them." Shen Yi replied as a matter of course.
Zongtang and Ambera were almost going crazy.
Everything that happened in front of them was so weird, and things went up and down again and again, so that even they couldn't figure out what happened.
"What the hell is going on, Shen Yi!" Zong Tang roared angrily.
Shen Yi raised his hand to stop: "Don't worry, the matter has come to this point, I just took the opportunity to find the person I've been looking for. As for the matter that you owe blood, don't worry too much. Lao Meng is sure now You are already on your way to the Spider Cave, so it’s useless for you to rush. Why don’t you come and fight the Hate Cage with me, the benefits will be even greater.”
"So all of this is really your mission?"
Shen Yi replied sternly: "Don't talk nonsense without evidence. What I want to remind you is that if you insist on me, it means that we can no longer cooperate. Then I can let go of the cage of hatred, you Let's see."
"You!" Zongtang and Ambera gasped at the same time. They were almost sure that all of this was Shen Yi's mastermind, but now that their lives were hanging by their hands, they could only bow their heads in the end. Instead of believing that Shen Yi was responsible for all of this, it is better to anesthetize yourself and convince yourself that he did not do it. At least there will be fewer obstacles in future cooperation.
Only then did Shen Yi say to Scarface: "Let's find a place to talk, just you and me."
—————————————
On a fort in Cuifanke Fortress, Shen Yi and Scarface sat facing each other, with some wine and meat placed between them.
Not far from them, Hong Lang Jingang and others stared at the scarred face and refused to relax. Zhou Yiyu held the steering wheel tightly, and the car was always in the low roar.
Shen Yi raised his wine glass to respect Dao Scar's face: "This glass of wine is to respect you for helping me back then. Do it!"
Drank it down.
With a bitter smile on Scar's face, he also drank the wine, then wiped his mouth and said, "I know what you're asking, do you think that I hurt you because of those pieces of equipment?"
"Yes, but I don't think it's enough."
"Why? They add up to a lot of money."
"Because the risk is too great. You know that I am not someone who can be fooled casually, and those scattered adventurers are not sure of winning. I mean... In fact, this way of harming others is not advisable, it is not worthwhile, and even Kind of stupid, I have to say."
"It's really stupid... If I wasn't stupid, how could I do such a stupid thing." Scarface smiled wryly. He drank another glass of wine, then lit a cigarette for himself, and leaned against the wall of the fortress to look at Shen Yi: "You are the most outstanding newcomer I have ever seen. When I was your novice instructor, I already You are a veteran in the ordinary area, but it has only been a few months, and you have already reached my level, not to mention being on an equal footing with me. With a team, you have killed the most tyrannical blood in the ordinary area, killing Xie Rongjun! Feathers return..."
When he said this, his tone obviously increased a lot, and his tone became excited: "I have lived in the bloody city for a whole year and a half! During these eighteen months, who have I not seen? But there is no one like You are so fast."
"I have brought countless rookies, and I have seen other outstanding rookies before you, but there is no one who is as outrageous as you! You caught up with me, you know? I used to be your instructor! I used to be able to beat you all over the place with one hand, and I can play you as I want. But now you and I are on the same mission, and I even ask you for help! Do you know what that means?! "
Shen Yi looked at Scarface with incomparably calm eyes: "Are you mentally unbalanced?"
"Yes!" Scarface admitted straightforwardly: "You can't think of it? This is the main reason why I hurt you. I'm jealous of you..."
He leaned in front of Shen Yi and stared into his eyes: "I'm jealous of you, like a guy who finally climbed up to the position of director and suddenly found a little girl who was under his feet a few months ago. A civil servant, who climbed to the position of mayor overnight, actually has to live on the other's nose! Do you know how big the gap and pain in your heart are?"
"I don't know, I've never had that experience."
"Yes, of course you won't, only you catch up with others, only you bring psychological pressure to others..." Scarface laughed.
He took another sip of wine for himself: "After I went back that day, looking at these equipments that I had never obtained before, thinking about your development and changes, I was very unwilling."
"You can join my team."
"Yes, I know, but I don't want to do that! If I wanted to join someone's team, I would have already joined, why wait for you?!" Scarface pointed to his chest: "I am born unwilling to be inferior to others Yes, I don't want to listen to anyone's orders. But I also know that I don't have the qualifications and ability to lead others, so I'm doomed to walk alone."
Shen Yi said lightly: "This is a group society, sometimes individual power is insignificant, and being able to unite others is more important."
"Yes, you are right, but my nature is like this, I am proud, so I don't want to join you. On the contrary, I want to see you fail and perish. Eliminating such an outstanding adventurer as you is to me It's unrivaled allure. When I stand on your dead body, I will say to you: Look, here is you, a new guy, although you used to be good, but so what? In the end, he died. In this bloody world, only living for a long time is the real success..." Scarface preached loudly, his words could be heard clearly by everyone in the distance, and then Scarface leisurely Looking at Shen Yi: "This is what I want to tell you."
"Just for a moment of pleasure?"
"Just for a moment of pleasure."
Shen Yi was silent.
After a while, he said, "I guess you don't want to die either."
"Is it possible for you to let me go?"
"Of course, no matter what, you are my instructor."
"Come on." Scarface sneered with disdain: "You are not that kind of person, I know. I killed you, and even killed your teammate... If it wasn't for that little girl, you couldn't let me go .”
"Compared to killing the enemy, I care more about protecting myself. If giving up the hatred can give me more benefits, I will do so. This is the biggest difference between me and you. I am not dominated by emotions, instructor." Shen Yi paused, "How much are you willing to pay for your own life?"
