Chapter 7264 (Seven Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty-Four) Performance

The brown-handed man said, "That makes sense. Would you like to tell me about the 'facts'?"

"You're bringing this up again?" Grayhand asked.

The brown-handed man laughed and said, "Yes, I brought it up again. What are you still worried about?"

The gray-handed man said, "It's alright as long as you're not worried about anything."

"In the coming period of time, will you not feel uncomfortable about bringing up the past?" the Brown-Handed Man asked.

“No,” the gray-handed man replied.

“What you’re doing is like ‘deceiving’,” the brown-handed man laughed.

"How does that sound like a lie? I already said 'no,'" said the gray-handed man. "Are you trying to say I was absolutely certain?"

“Obviously, you’ve already figured out the reason yourself, yet you’re asking me why it sounds like a scam,” the Brown-Handed Man said. “When I say it sounds like a ‘scam,’ I’m actually following your line of thinking. If it were according to my own logic, what you’re doing wouldn’t be considered a ‘scam.’”

The gray-handed man laughed and said, "I know."

"The tone you used when you said 'It sounds like a scam,' made it seem like you had no idea why I said that," the brown-handed man laughed. "Were you acting?"

The gray-handed man laughed, "Yes, it's a performance. You noticed?"

"Did you just come up with that on the spot?" the brown-handed man asked.

"Yes, it's something I came up with based on what you just said," said the gray-handed man.

"You came up with this on the spot. Did you say you were performing before?" the Brown-Handed Man asked.

“You yourself said I was performing,” the gray-handed man said. “I’m asking you a question,” the brown-handed man said.

"You're asking about the past too," the gray-handed man chuckled.

The brown-handed man laughed and said, "I'm not you. The situation I'm asking about is your previous situation. There's nothing unusual about it."

The gray-handed man said, "You can ask me about my past situation, so why can't I just tell you about mine?"

The brown-handed man said, "You yourself said that you came up with those words on the spot. You came up with those words to say that what you did before was a 'performance'."

“I understand what you mean,” the gray-handed man laughed.

“You understand, and I have to say it too,” said the brown-handed man.

“This is very interesting,” said the gray-handed man.

"In what way?" the brown-handed man asked.

"Before you could even say that I knew the answer, I took the initiative to tell you that I understood what you meant," the Gray-Handed Man laughed. "Then you didn't ask me what I understood; you just wanted to say it yourself and tell me that you understood. You had to say it too."

"It certainly sounds fresh and interesting when you say it like that," the brown-handed man laughed.

The gray-handed man said, "If you want to say it, then say it. I'm listening."

“Hmm,” the brown-handed man chuckled. “I asked you if it was a performance before because I didn’t know your past situation, so asking about it wasn’t unusual. But what you said about your past situation is problematic. You later described your previous use of that tone as a ‘performance,’ and then you said you came up with it on the spot. This already shows that when you said you were ‘performing,’ you deliberately said it that way later. When you were performing your so-called performance, you didn’t even think you were performing, did you?”

“Just because I didn’t think I was performing before doesn’t mean that what I was doing wasn’t performing,” Grayhand laughed. “I don’t necessarily have to prepare for a performance before I perform, and I don’t necessarily have to be aware that I’m performing while I’m performing.”
