Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4736 (Four Thousand Seven Hundred and Thirty Six) Euphemism

"If that's the case, why do you have such thoughts? If you don't believe the words that insult you, why do you deliberately deny the words that you think he insults you by denying that he can understand what you are thinking?" asked the man with gray hands.

The man thought for a moment and said, "Maybe... maybe... I... even when I felt it was impossible, deep down in my heart I still... still had a little worry."

"What are you worried about?" Gray Hand asked, "Are you worried that what he said is true?"

The man thought for a while and said, "But I feel that I didn't think that way in that world... Maybe... Maybe... I actually had the thought you said in my heart, but... I didn't feel it at the time." In order to avoid problems, he didn't dare to say anything too decisive.

Gray Hand Man said: "You can't completely get rid of that... that... that worry in your heart."

"It should... be impossible to throw it away." said the man.

"Do you know why?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I... didn't know at the time." The man said, "If I think about it now, then... it's probably because... because I... I think of things that happened many years ago from time to time..."

"What's it about?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"It's... about my father... of course... and... and myself..." said the man.

Although the Gray Hand Man wanted to know what exactly happened, he hadn't finished asking all the questions yet, so he decided to put it aside for now. Just when he was about to ask that person something, he heard that person ask him back: "You guys... you really know what I'm thinking, right? You're not like the guy in that world who claims to be my dad... who said he could understand when he couldn't, right?"

The man with gray hands said: "Do you think we are pretending in front of you?" "I don't think... like that." The man replied.

The Gray Hand asked again: "Do you think there is a difference between us knowing what you think in your heart and us not knowing what you think in your heart?"

The man thought: If the other person knew what I was thinking, I would have to be more careful when speaking. Otherwise, if I say something wrong, wouldn't that be very dangerous?
Even though he thought so, when the Gray Hand asked directly, that person was reluctant to make his mindset too clear, because once he said it, it would be easy for the other party to think that he was lying. He was worried about being discovered and wanted to know whether the other party had known about it for a long time.

I wanted to say it more tactfully just now, but then I thought, if the Gray-Handed Man and the Brown-Handed Man already knew what I was thinking, then even if I said it more tactfully, it would easily give people the impression that I didn't dare to speak my true feelings, which might become even more disadvantageous to me.

After thinking it over, he decided to tell the Gray Hand Man his true thoughts.

But just as he was thinking, the Gray Hand Man asked, "Does this require further thought?"

The man replied: "No, I'm just...thinking about how to say it more appropriately..."

"Just say what you think. It's appropriate to speak your true thoughts." said the man with gray hands.

“Yes… that’s right…” the man said, “Actually… there is a slight difference… but… it seems to be only a difference in my heart.”
