A journey of seven souls escaping from the basement

Although this boss may feel very unreliable in some places, on this matter, what the emperor said should still be highly credible.

"So who is your client whose character is guaranteed?"

"I can't tell."

"Oh, yes, confidentiality agreement, yes, yes, I understand. I will not ask about your client anymore, and I will understand you." Lapland showed a concerned smile, but the words in his mouth were On the contrary, it became gradually colder.

"But how about you be more considerate of me? Or let me change the question. Why are you so willing to trust your client's character and hand the pendant to your client, but not willing to trust me to put the pendant in Is this because the client has a better reputation, and compared to that, in your opinion, I am simply an untrustworthy person? "

"I..." Texas stopped thinking, and showed a rare expression of hesitation, but she immediately realized that this slight delay in hesitation was enough to make her no longer have Qualifications to answer.

"Ah, okay, I understand."

"..."

...The words of dissuasion just now seemed to have the opposite effect on Lapland at this moment.

"Then, just like I said when I came, I will leave after asking the questions. Now I am leaving." After saying that, Lapland made a polite gesture of resignation and turned towards the room. Go to the door.

Just before she opened the door and prepared to leave, she paused for a moment, turned her back to Texas and added: "You know where to find me. If you want to tell me anything, I welcome you." You can come visit me any time."

Then, without waiting for Texas to reply, she closed the door and left.

After walking for an unknown distance without saying a word, Lapland, who seemed to be alone, slowly looked to his side, at the ghost that only he could see, and asked him:

"So, why don't you say anything? Do you have anything to ask me?"

"I thought you were thinking about something, so I didn't bother you." After answering, Yabu followed the other person's question and asked, "If I insist on saying something, there is one thing I want to say, that is, you know where to find it. I, how does she know that this is the so-called meeting at the same place that often appears in TV dramas? "

"No, I've said so much, and this is the only thing you want to ask?"

"I'm really curious about this..."

*Because there's a hotel nearby, there's a hotel near the hotel, and Texas knows Lapland hangs out there.

-------------------------------------

Chapter 61 Almost indulgent

Although it was a bit selfish to think so, Lapland did not want Yabu to know about his past. So when she heard that Texas could not say anything because of the confidentiality agreement, she was there. The emotion I felt at the moment was joy.

Ah, yes, then I won't be able to help you ask about things related to you. After all, Texas is unwilling to talk about it because of the confidentiality agreement. This is reasonable, isn't it?

It was irresponsible to blame all problems on Texas for this reason, but Lapland chose to do so in the end.

But if you think about it carefully, there are actually some solutions.

For example, remove yourself from this matter, such as handing over the pendant, giving the pendant to Texas, and letting her communicate with Yabu alone. Although she can't hear what Yabu said, what she said to Yabu can hear.

The confidentiality agreement only said that she could not confess to outsiders, but it probably did not say that she could not confess to the entrusted target.

It's not that Lapland didn't think of the idea of ​​giving away the cloth from her hands, but she quickly rejected the idea when it came to her mind.

But she also knew that even if she rejected it, the method itself would not disappear, and it was possible for Yao Bu to think of it. So after she came out, she asked Yao Bu if he had anything to say. In fact, she was trying to find out what Yao Bu was. How to treat this matter.

During that short period of silence, she thought about what kind of explanation she should give if Yabu asked questions in this regard.

As a result, the other party's focus was on how Texas found him.

It was like a tactical plan. She was fully prepared and everything was perfect. No matter what questions Yabu asked, she was confident that she would be on guard and go back. She waited for the opponent to come over, but the other person held a bowl in front of her and opened her mouth. It’s you. What do you want to eat? Break some for me.

"Is this all you pay attention to?"

"The main thing is that I don't know her, so I can only focus on this. I was thinking about the relationship between you two the whole time. You two give people the impression that you are having a private meeting with the mafia, you know? , I always feel that it’s not weird even if you say some lines in some movies, for example..."

While explaining why he thought so, Yabu also tried to imitate lines that often appeared in movies he had seen before.

"I'm going to find you and kill you, or something like that."

"......It really is."

What she and Texas did before, saying this kind of line is really not inconsistent at all.

It was unclear whether it was because of the weird illusion or simply being more sensitive to emotions. Lapland found that Yabu always seemed to be able to quickly guess what kind of person the other party was.

"what?"

"I mean..." Lapland didn't really want to let Yabu know her past experiences at this time, "Is now the time to ask this?"

"Then...what else?" Yabu held his chin as if thinking about what Lapland wanted him to say. After seeing how late it was and the words "now" mentioned in the other party's words, Finally, a look of sudden realization appeared on his face: "What should we have for dinner? By the way, you are in good health. Although I am not sure whether there will be a recovery period after the treatment of this ability, I suggest that you should do it in the near future. Eat less spicy food.”

"you......"

Are you joking?

I made the decision for you without asking for your opinion, rejecting Texas, leaving you with one less option to understand things related to your past.

Aren't you angry?No ideas?Wouldn't you feel constrained by the fact that someone else has made the choice for you?

Lapland really wanted to ask Yabu like this.

But when she looked at Yao Bu who was really thinking about what would be better for her to eat, she suddenly understood why the other party had no doubts about this matter.

Ah, that's it...

Because he trusts himself, he will not doubt anything he does.

This is an almost indulgent trust.

"You can't eat." Lapland changed the topic following the words he just said.

"It seems true." Yabu looked a little disappointed, but he was quickly led over and said, "I'm used to saying this, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, you can eat Lapland. When the time comes, Just tell me about the taste.”

"Your desires are a bit too humble..."

-------------------------------------

23:21 pm.

It was already late, and after taking the time to finish dinner and return to the place where we were staying, the sky became darker and even the city lights couldn't resist the feeling of exhaustion it conveyed to people all the time.

Lapland, who had already had dinner, was sitting on the sofa playing with the golden pendant, and from time to time his eyes would be cast on Zabu in front of the TV.

He seems to like those programs, but liking may not be accurate. His expression feels more like curiosity about novel things, which is more appropriate.

Zha Bu, who was concentrating on watching the movie and TV series played on the night channel, did not realize that Lapland was staring at his back, nor did he realize that Lapland had put away the pendant and walked slowly behind him. .

"Is it interesting? It's obviously quite cliche and boring." Lapland leaned over Yabu's shoulder and asked.

Looking at Yabu who was slightly frightened by the fact that he was talking quietly next to him, Lapland felt that the other party's reaction was much more interesting than what was shown on TV.

"Huh? Ah..." Yabu, who understood that Lapland was teasing him, didn't pay too much attention to the other party's behavior that scared him, just like friends laughing after a joke to get to know each other. After a while, he said: "The plot is not very interesting, but I think it is interesting, mainly because you can see this kind of TV series here."

After all, even though we are in a different world, TV programs from our hometown are playing on the TV. Even these programs seem to have a sense of age in Yabu. This feeling of time and space dislocation does make Yabu feel very strange. experience.

"That's it." Lapland seemed to understand. He looked up at the time and then talked about another thing, "Zaibu, I need to go out."

"Huh? Do you need me to accompany you?"

"No need." As he said that, Lapland carefully placed the pendant in the cabinet under the TV.

"Okay, come back early, it's already late, be careful outside."

But after saying this, Yabu still seemed a little uneasy, and stopped watching TV. Instead, he looked at Lapland seriously and warned: "The main thing is, don't eat what others give you, and don't drink anything." Keep things out of your sight, and remember not to drink. You are in good health, and if there is someone outside who is drunk, I won't be able to pick you up."

"I know all this..."

In fact, Lapland didn't need to be taught anything about this kind of thing. She had seen countless more serious things herself.

"You're a little too worried. I'm just going out for a short while. Besides, do you think anyone can beat me?" Lapland smiled and touched his weapon, "But I will be back soon. .”

"Um, oh, by the way, don't go to a place that's too dark or with few people. Choose a place with a lot of people."

"I know, I know......"

-------------------------------------

*Yabu didn't ask Lapland what he was going to do.

*If Lapland wanted to say it, she would.

-------------------------------------

Chapter 62 The price has been paid

Being in Longmen, if you observe the surroundings in the evening, you will have a very strange feeling.

Look up and look straight at the sky. As long as the body's biological clock is normal, the brain will basically remind people who are still active that it is time to rest.

But when you look at the buildings and lights in the streets, you will understand that people are somewhat rebellious.

What?rest?If my brain tells me to rest, I will rest. Wouldn’t it be a shame for me?

No, I have to stay up late to show you who is the owner of this body.

Sitting on a chair near the entrance of the tavern, Lapland tilted her head and stared at the passers-by on the roadside, seemingly looking for someone. On the table in front of her were two bottles of wine already hung. Judging from Shuizhu’s drinks, it looks like they have been waiting for a while.

"Yo, Texas, this way."

Looking at Texas walking towards here in the distance, even though he knew that the other party had already seen this place, Lapland still shouted Texas' name directly into the distance.

Texas, who was being called loudly from a distance, looked at Lapland who was waving to him. He didn't know what he was feeling and lowered his eyes and sighed. He didn't imitate her shouting in response, but remained silent and quiet. He walked to Lapland's position, sat opposite her, and then slowly said:

"I can see, there's no need to call me from so far away, and why do you have to start with yo every time you call me."

"I don't know, maybe I'm used to it." Lapland pushed the alcoholic drink on the table to Texas's hand, while leaving a bottle of juice in front of him that looked a bit like a children's drink.

"Ok?"

"Zhaobu said that I was not in good health for a long time and wouldn't let me drink." Seeing Texas' suspicious eyes on him, Lapland explained while lowering his head and taking a sip from the straw a little dejectedly, but As the juice entered her mouth, her expression immediately improved a lot, "Not bad..."

"...?"

who are you?Who is this person who looks like a pre-teen child who was asked by his parents not to drink alcohol, but is obedient and just orders juice?

What about the Laplanders?

The corner of Texas' mouth moved but he said nothing. He also lowered his head and took a sip of the drink he was handed before he said, "You have changed a lot..."

However, the feeling is that it is changing in a good direction. As a friend, Texas is still very happy to see Lapland like this.

"Is it because of the ghost you mentioned...Zhang Bu?"

"Ah, almost." When Lapland mentioned Yabu, a smile appeared clearly on his face, "I now understand a little bit why you are happy to live such a life."

"My client asked me to look for this thing, most likely because of this ghost, but my client didn't tell me the relevant things. Of course, it may be that he thought I couldn't see it, so it didn't matter whether he told me or not. In other words, the client doesn’t know either.”

Since Texas came to see Lapland, he was not going to beat around the bush and directly asked the question she wanted to know:

"Can he be trusted?"

"...Are you suspecting him?" Lapland lowered his head and stirred the juice in the cup with a straw. "Or, are you suspecting that I was influenced by him in some way?"

"I'm not sure, but I can assure you that at least there is no problem on the client's side, so the only thing that needs to be considered now is, is this ghost safe?"

Why does Rhodes Island need to find someone, even a corpse or even a ghost needs to be brought back, and why is it willing to pay such a large commission?

Judging from what is known in Texas, there should be no problem in Rhode Island, so the only problem could be that ghost.

"If you are not sure, I suggest you put this thing..."

This has nothing to do with the commission, and her coming to persuade Lapland now has nothing to do with completing the commission.

The reason why Texas considers this is that in the final analysis, it is because there is specialization in the art. When you don't know what something is, don't blindly approach it, but leave the thing to a professional. In Texas Sass seems to be more reasonable.

"I still have the same question, Texas. Why are you so willing to trust your client's character but not mine?"

But before Texas could answer anything, Lapland gave the answer himself.

"Let me say it for you, because I am Lapland. What kind of character does Lapland have, right? Compared with your client who has a good reputation, I have never given people the impression that I They are all dangerous and unstable. If I say that I am not controlled by a ghost, and that the pendant is harmless, you probably won’t believe it. You will only think that this is my baseless wishful thinking.”

"Texas, can you trust me completely? No matter what I say or do, you will stay with me and believe in me like a friend."

Even indulgent.

"Texas, you can't do that, can you?"

Texas was silent and did not answer immediately, as if he was thinking about whether Lapland could be completely trusted.

But this question is actually somewhat unanswerable, because as long as you take the time to think about it and don’t give an answer immediately, you have actually denied it to a certain extent, and even if you can give an answer immediately, it will make people feel that it is just perfunctory. reply.

This question cannot be answered through words. Only through practical actions can we convey our thoughts.
