Chapter 589 Smart people...die Faster
"..."
George looked at the kneeling Northam with a gloomy face at this time.
"Can't you handle such a small thing?"
"..."
Northen was silent.
It's not that he doesn't want to answer, it's that his face has been beaten into a pig's head and he can't speak.
At this time, a guard in silver armor walked into the room and whispered to George: "Your Excellency George..."
After hearing what the silver armor guard said, George's eyes showed a look of extreme incomprehension.
"Who killed him?"
The guard shook his head, "It's not clear yet."
The news made George's breath hitch, and he asked, "What about slavery?"
"None of them came back."
"..."
"How many?"
"There are 3,000 slaves leaving the city."
George's face was so gloomy that he could drip water. "You go to Factory No. 3 immediately and get rid of the troublemaking guard. The sooner the better."
The guard nodded and then asked: "What about the slaves outside?"
"They are not under my control. It is the big brother who has the headache. We just need to make sure nothing happens here."
"yes."
The guard immediately turned around and left, rushing to the third factory.
And George vented all his anger on Noson, and he kicked Noson on the shoulder.
boom!
Even though Noson's muscles were tense and he was already prepared for defense, he was still easily kicked far away and hit the wall heavily.
"You can't even understand a group of slaves. You are really useless."
After saying that, George himself laughed.
Because for the first time, he felt that his plan was ruined by a group of slaves who were not human beings.
"never mind."
"It seems that it is fate that makes me take action in advance."
…
The west side of the main city of Lion.
In an exquisite room that was somewhat different from other architectural styles, Anne was stroking her beloved pet and listening to the message from her personal guard.
Anne's personal guard is the only female guard in the frozen city.
Compared with the other personal guards of the male lion heir, everyone envied Daisy because she was assisting Lady Anne, who had a great personality, low ambition, was kind to others, and didn't even have any princess flaws.
But only Daisy knew that Lady Anne was not the person she usually appeared to outsiders.
It is only when she is alone with Anne that she can see the "real Anne."
A woman with no emotion in her eyes and an extremely cold face.
"interesting……"
After listening to the information brought by Daisy, Annie smiled and said to herself, but this smile was not friendly at all.
"Who do you think controlled this?"
"ah?"
Faced with Anne's sudden question, Daisy didn't react for a moment.
Annie smiled and said, "Do you know why I like you?"
Daisy didn't dare to answer.
Annie didn't make things difficult for her, she just said to herself: "Because you are really stupid."
"I'm not scolding you."
Annie's voice is playful and sounds nice, like a doll, but only if... you don't look at her lifeless face.
Anne glanced at Daisy.
Then he turned his gaze to the side without interest, looking at the vase on the window sill, as if he was talking to Daisy, but in fact he was talking to himself.
"I guess these three thousand slaves will never come back, at least not tonight."
"As for when I'll come back... I'll probably wait until the price is agreed upon before I show up."
"Three thousand slaves, plus eight hundred factory slaves, have almost abolished the entire slavery system. I guess...then the less than a thousand slaves on the city wall will also start a strike."
Daisy interrupted at this time and asked: "Why...why?"
Although she didn't understand anything, she felt that she couldn't let Lady Anne talk to herself there, as it would be a bit embarrassing.
But after saying that, she regretted it.
It was obvious that Annie was not talking to her, but just thinking, and she seemed to interrupt Annie's thoughts.
"good question."
Unexpectedly, instead of blaming her, Anne praised her.
But this made Daisy even more confused. What did she ask? Is that a good problem?
"Why...why do this? What would he gain by letting the slave go on strike?"
Anne stared at the vase and muttered.
Then she suddenly thought of something, and a smile appeared on her cold face that frightened Daisy. This was neither a simple smile to hide others nor a sneer, but an expression that belonged to someone else entirely.
"I thought about it."
"You want to make this place chaotic, and chaotic as it should be... so you create a farce against Northam."
"And you also know that the blizzard will block all information, so you feel free and bold to let them kill the fighting groups outside and control the slaves."
"I see……"
Thinking of this, Annie's eyes lit up, and then she said firmly: "It's not us you're afraid of, it's not the Lion's fighting group that you're afraid of, and maybe... you're not even afraid of the Lion himself."
"What you're afraid of is the message that could get out at any time."
As soon as Annie finished speaking, a drop of sweat fell on her forehead.
In the frozen city, sweating is not a good thing.
Of course not sweating from the heat.
Because Daisy behind Anne had already lost consciousness, collapsed on the ground, and almost stopped breathing.
Annie suppressed her trembling hands, stroked the dead pet dog in her hand, and said with a forced smile: "It seems... I guessed right."
Then the words fell.
A butterfly flew out from behind the vase.
The butterfly landed on the back of Anne's hand without hesitation, looked up at Anne in a very human way, and spoke in a man's voice.
"You are very smart."
"Of course." Anne did not object to this matter at all.
The man continued, "But you should know that smart people... die faster. You should learn from your guards and be a little stupid, maybe you can survive."
Annie put down the pet dog that died at some point in her hand and said in a relaxed tone: "But you didn't kill me, did you?"
"..."
Seeing that the man didn't speak, Anne finally couldn't sit still and took the initiative to admit: "I can help you take over the Frozen City and guarantee that no information will be leaked."
"..."
Annie felt that the pressure on her hand had not disappeared, so she quickened her speech and quickly explained: "I have four stupid brothers. Their stupidity makes me worry that they will tarnish the name of the lion."
"Tell the truth."
"I want to be the queen."
Annie said honestly.
Zheng Yu: "..."
Zheng Yu, who was far away in the void, was also hit by Anne's honesty and didn't know what to say for a while.
But it has to be said.
Annie... is indeed qualified.
With just a few pieces of information, she can guess this information. Her IQ is definitely enough. She can still maintain a calm mood and logical thinking under the strong pressure released by Zheng Yu... Her character is also top-notch.
The reason is enough.
But...
"The price is not enough."
What is the price?
It means that you can directly hold Annie's handle.
The current situation is no longer that Zheng Yu is looking for someone, but Annie wants to take the initiative to cooperate with him, so you have to show your sincerity.
Obviously, Annie understands.
She directly pressed her palm on the dead pet dog, and the next moment, the pet dog that was directly crushed to death by Zheng Yu's pressure actually stood up slowly.
It's just different from before.
The silly and cute eyes belonging to the pet completely turned into the cold, lifeless breath of Annie.
"I will give you half of my soul. If I reveal your information, my soul...you can do whatever you want."
"..."
It's cruel enough...Zheng Yu began to appreciate this extremely good acting woman.
As a summoner, he can feel the changes in Annie and the pet dog, and a faint contractual breath is concluded between them.
Once Zheng Yu cuts off this connection, Annie may die directly.
Zheng Yu had no reason to refuse this "price", which was enough to show Annie's sincerity.
"Okay."
The butterfly landed on the pet dog.
The next moment, the void flickered, and the pet dog directly entered the void of the spirit butterfly.
The blood of the lion has been found.
Compared to a puppet.
Zheng Yu actually... prefers smart people.
Because what made Annie make all these choices was not her intelligence, nor her judgment of the situation, but...Zheng Yu's absolute suppressive strength.
Combined with the caution and calmness of smart people.
It makes this game easier.
