Chapter 2543 Chips

John Davis's third wife, the woman who dared to bargain with me silently in the face of adversity, did not answer my questions candidly this time.

Her flexible eyes no longer moved around, but stared straight at me, with greedy light blooming in her brown pupils.

Swallowing hard, she mustered up the courage and said, "Sir, can you guarantee that my family will not be discriminated against in Moonlight City?"

Faced with the question, I smiled and said, "You are such a brave woman. Well, I will make an exception and answer you once - no."

Her eyes widened in surprise, and she didn't know how to respond.

I guess she must be yelling at you at this moment: Damn it, you don’t play according to the routine!

But in reality, how can there be so many routines?

The crime committed by John Davis is enough for your entire family to repay for nearly a hundred years. I don’t care about the past grudges. No, it was Her Majesty the Fairy Queen who ignored the past grudges and knows how to make good use of people. She decided to use your family head again. So I traveled thousands of miles to ride on the magic Airship, rush to Airui City and exchange you for one hundred thousand gold coins.

Now, I am just fulfilling my obligation and asking you a question, but you are still silent, using this to bargain. Do you think I am young, have little education, and have little experience, so I am easy to deceive?

"John Davis can already be said to have committed an unforgivable crime. Even you, his family, will also be punished, and it will be a heavy punishment. However, His Majesty has a kind heart and knows how to make good use of others. He believes that Davis will also be punished." He is still a talented person, and I don’t want to kill him off casually. I plan to give him a chance to atone for his sins, so I ordered me to come to Airui City to redeem you.”

Leaning on the sofa, tapping the armrest with my fingers, I said slowly: "But this is not what you can bargain with. The reason why I ask you is just to fulfill my obligation. In fact, I could not ask, because I will wait until the moonlight returns." City, when counting the number of people, if the number of people is found to be wrong, Your Majesty will definitely not blame me, but will think that you are unwilling to be loyal and use despicable methods to make fun of me who sincerely take you back. At that time, let alone John. Instead of being reactivated, Davis will be punished as guilty. As for you, you will probably end up with the same fate as Davis. After all, a considerable part of the public property he misappropriated was used on you. You It should be repaid.”

Muddy sweat dripped down the woman's temples. She swallowed in fear, but still bit her lip and said not a word.

Obviously, she still had a lucky mentality, thinking that she could continue to live peacefully without saying anything.

In fact, I don't care if any family members are left in Airui City, so what if they are left? Once discovered by the Carter family, he will be detained as a hostage to threaten John Davis.

But who was John Davis?

He is a selfish person who doesn't even take his own parents and motherland seriously.

The reason why he prays in every possible way that I can bring his family back to Moonlight City is because he hopes to use this as a bargaining chip to win my trust, or in other words, to give him a chance to avoid death.

The reason for doing this is that he is afraid, really afraid. He is afraid that he will die in prison like an old dog with mixed hair, or be hanged alone on the rack.

Perhaps in his opinion, the end of life should be to die on a gorgeous bed, filled with his favorite gold coins and fine wine. Surrounded by the dazzling golden light and intoxicating fragrance, he stopped happily breathe.

For all this, he had to work hard, try his best, and try his best to please me, or in other words, he wanted to take the opportunity to please me to show his kindness to the two majesties.

Maybe he is not loyal at all and selfish, but I have to say that he is actually quite smart.

Precisely because he is selfish and smart, when he faces the family members who are taken as hostages and controlled by the Carter family, he will definitely choose to preserve himself. As for the family members... Haha, so what if they die? As long as John Davis is alive, why not add more family members?

John Davis's third wife and I, one really wanted to ask and the other was bargaining. The conversation between us seemed to be incompatible, so it was better not to talk about it.

At that moment, I ordered the waiter to release all the other members of John Davis' family, and I walked back to the room leisurely.

Lying on the sofa, about to fall asleep, suddenly there was a tremor in my pocket, which woke me up instantly.

He took out the call crystal and after connecting, Master Dewey's voice came out: "Where are you now?"

"Ai Rui City" I said.

"Where to do what?"

"Go pick up John Davis' family."

"Going to pick up his family? Why?" Master Dewey asked puzzled.

"Because grandma said it works."

"Grandma? Oh, Her Majesty the Fairy Queen." Master Dewey chuckled and said, "This old woman is already so old and she still doesn't stop."

After laughing, he added: "Forget it, I have long wanted to abandon this useless chess piece John Davis. Since she likes it, I will give it to her."

"By the way, foster father, do you have anything to ask me about?"

"Hey, I almost forgot about the real thing," Master Dewey said, "Xiaoyi, let me ask you, how much do you know about ancient times?"

"Uh." The scope of this question is so broad. After a moment of silence, I asked: "Father, what aspect of the ancient times are you talking about?"

"Technology," Master Dewey said, "Technology from ancient times."

"I really don't know much about technology," I said, "You can ask Luke for advice. He came to Zephyr Continent at the end of the ancient era. Although he was killed after not staying long, he didn't know much about the technology of the ancient era. He should be quite familiar with it, after all, he is also a scientist."

"Well, that's it, Xiaoyi, I understand everything you said. As an apostle and a scientist, I believe he has some experience in the technology of ancient times, but he is an apostle after all."

Understand, Master Dewey was worried about being tricked by Luke because he didn't trust the apostles from the beginning.

That's right, the perception formed by thousands of years of exposure cannot be changed in a day or two.

"Father" I said to him in a serious tone: "You are a scientist. If someone asks you for academic questions, will you deceive him?"

"Of course it won't happen."

"That's right, foster father, although Luke is an apostle, he is also a scientist, and a scientist who loves science just like you. The only difference is that you can be satisfied with the status quo, while he, But he always longs to build his own country, but this does not affect his love for science. As you just answered, if you ask him academic questions that you don’t understand, he will be happy to help you answer them. , will never deceive you.”
