I'm bad, but players love me
Page 19
Sure enough, Yun Shuo was very good at creating surprises for him.
The noblewoman and William still have a score to settle.
He actually dared to call her a "bitch". Who the hell is this lowly person to dare to speak to her like that?
This time, William looked at her with obvious disdain. Although William himself did not mean that, she had just been stopped by Setash from replacing the tables and chairs with those aristocratic products, so she directly interpreted this look as a provocation.
It was as if William was speaking directly to her, mocking her, “Why don’t you put on those stinky airs this time?”
She stretched her stiff legs slightly, leaned over, and said, "How arrogant of them to let you wait here like this."
"So what do you want to do?" Setash leaned slightly, seemingly avoiding the airflow blowing from the side of her neck, and asked, "We really forgot that we should have given them a specific time early on."
"But……"
"No buts," Setash said decisively. He then took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped his neck, which had been blasted by the air current. "Also, next time you speak to me, remember to control your tone. I don't remember your family's etiquette including being able to blow air at anyone at will."
He turned his head to look at the woman who stood up with her lower lip tightly bitten. "What's wrong? Or are you planning to disobey me?"
William, who was standing behind the counter pretending to wipe the cups but actually eavesdropping with his ears perked up, was almost holding his mouth like a duck.
Good man, boomerang never lets anyone go, and now you have come to this day.
The female noble, whose face was already flushed with shame, could no longer bear it. She shouted angrily, "What are you laughing at?"
After saying that, she glanced at Satesh carefully. Seeing that he was drinking coffee as if nothing had happened and had no intention of stopping him, she felt more confident.
Chapter 49: Are you still coming?
He stuffed too much stuff into me and made me angry. I couldn't resist. Can't I bully someone like you?
How dare you laugh at me? Are you worthy enough?
She walked over angrily and knocked on the counter with her fingers. "Are you deaf? I asked you, what are you laughing at? Wait..."
William felt that the other party was observing him from top to bottom as if he were something that belonged to him. He looked at him so thoroughly and offensively. The contempt and disdain hidden in that look were not directed at a person of lower status, but at a disobedient domestic animal.
"I remember you," she crossed her arms and stared at the woman in front of her, "I remember you. You didn't seem like this before."
Looking at William's gradually cold face, she praised him repeatedly: "Yes, that's right. The faces of the untouchables always have very few expressions. You are almost the same. Let me think, you are Remus's subordinate, right? I remember that he trusted you very much at that time and even asked you to do the work of tax collection?"
The face full of curiosity moved closer to William. "What's wrong? After Remus fell, you were like dogs that lost their master. You found a new master so quickly? How is it? Will he let you bark there for his entertainment?"
"Please respect yourself, ma'am. At least, on ELO's territory, you and I are equal." William put the glass back into the cup holder with a "clang" and spoke word by word in a cold voice.
"Hmm!" The female noble couldn't help laughing out loud. She clapped her hands and nodded, as if she was praising a pet, with a malicious and doting tone.
She said affirmatively, "That's exactly what I'm talking about! Haha, that's really hilarious, don't you think? So, 'equality' is the new word your ELO organization used to replace 'woof woof woof'? This is really surprising. I thought you were all illiterate. I didn't expect you had the ability to create characters."
"You!" William's face was distorted with anger, and her hands involuntarily reached out to the cups that had just been wiped.
She mentally suggested to herself: It's okay, I'm just letting off some steam. I don't kill people, and I didn't even think about using a gun, right? No, these kinds of things aren't even considered human beings!
"I advise you not to act rashly." A gun was pointed at William's head. "I told you guys you're all idiots. In this day and age, who would want to kill someone with a glass? Are you just playing house?"
"Bang!" The gun rang out.
But it did not erupt from the guns of the nobles, but from the guns of the stupid pariahs they called them.
"Ah!" the female noble screamed. Only half a layer of flesh and blood remained on her right wrist where she held the gun, connecting it to her palm. The severe pain caused her to slide straight to the ground against the counter.
This time, she didn't have the time to worry about whether her luxurious skirt would get dirty on the slum floor.
She just kept twisting there, her legs twitching uncontrollably, the pain sweeping through her brain leaving her unable to think of anything except screaming and crying out in pain.
"Excellent shooting!" Setash stood up and applauded. "Incredibly accurate, and the timing was perfect. Otherwise, this guy might have actually attacked someone from your ELO organization."
He spoke these words with as cold indifference as if the noble rolling on the ground was not his subordinate but his enemy.
William quickly wiped the blood off his face with his sleeve, then stepped forward and said with his head lowered, "Commander."
"Well done, William. Next time remember to use a gun instead of a fragile glass." Yun Shuo nodded affirmatively at her, ignoring Setaish who was standing aside waiting for Yun Shuo to talk.
"Go down first, change your clothes, and then have a good rest."
William's first reaction when he heard Yun Shuo's words was, "What about here?"
"That's not necessary," Yun Shuo said, looking at Setash, who had been staring at him from the beginning. "I believe Lord Setash will take care of everything, right?"
"Of course." Saitaishi said with a smile.
As if changing his expression, his smiling face suddenly collapsed, and he signaled the people behind him to clean up the mess.
After hastily bandaging the female noble, he injected her with painkillers, and finally managed to calm her down.
"Okay, let her continue to stand next to me." Saitaishi ordered.
The attendant trembled all over and replied in a trembling voice: "My lord, she can't stand up yet."
"Tsk."
After hearing his master's unhappy voice, the servant shrank even more, curling up into a ball, wishing he could squeeze himself into a thin sheet, float away in the wind, and disappear.
"Okay, it's not like there aren't chairs here." Yun Shuo took the initiative to help. "Don't embarrass me. Could it be that what you want to discuss with me is how to elevate embarrassment to a new level of art?"
"Of course not. Why would you think that?" Saitaishi said with a sneer. "But you really opened my eyes today. Aren't you afraid that I won't talk to you anymore?"
Yun Shuo slumped back in his chair, completely unconcerned with the other person. "Has anyone ever told you that you're annoying? It's really annoying to always be testing other people's boundaries, and you keep doing it over and over again."
"I'm serious. I'm curious."
Seeing Saitaishi's innocent face approaching, Yun Shuo chose to move closer as well, "If you have the guts, try it."
He smiled dangerously and earnestly.
"Just because I don't want to do it doesn't mean I can't do it. I'm not a soft-hearted person, nor am I a person with a big heart. If you want to bite me back, you'd better make sure your teeth are strong enough."
"Okay, okay, I was wrong." Setash apologized in a completely unproper manner. "My attitude was not correct. I will reflect on it. What compensation do you want? For sending such a..." He raised his head and glanced at the woman who was leaning on the chair behind him. "I will use her life to compensate you, okay?"
He pretended to be embarrassed and said, "No matter how bad this guy is, he is still a noble after all. I can't explain to her elders that she lost a hand for no apparent reason on your ELO territory. Why not just let her die here?"
Saitaishi was certain Yun Shuo wouldn't kill her. If Yun Shuo really wanted to kill her, he could have just shot her right from the start. Even if a head was hard to aim at, it was much easier than a wrist.
The only possibility was that Yun Shuo didn't have the courage or the confidence. In that case, Yun Shuo was still within his control.
But Yun Shuo said, "Okay."
Chapter 50: Poke Your Spine
"What did you say?" Saitai said in disbelief.
What Yun Shuo did was completely illogical, which made him unable to do anything for a moment. He could only ask the other party back, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears.
Saitaishi planned their conversation very well. He used food to force Yun Shuo to talk to him immediately, punish the stupid woman behind him, show his sincerity, and then the two of them signed an agreement that was not unequal at all.
"I said, okay." Yun Shuo repeated with a smile. It was rare for him to smile so happily. "Why? Could it be that this is not your original intention, but a suggestion that you just want to force me to take a step back?"
"Of course." Setash touched his nose subconsciously. No matter how crazy he was, it was not logical to send a noble to death at random, at least not in an open way.
He looked serious. No matter what, the most important thing was that he must not show any weakness.
Saitaishi suddenly realized that Yun Shuo and he were so similar - they both liked to treat others with double standards. He looked at the man in front of him who was smiling heartily. Perhaps the "equality" he spoke of was actually "unequal."
What a hypocrite, just like me.
Saitaishi said with some embarrassment: "But, if this happens, it might be even harder for me to report back. You were a perfectly normal person before you left the house with me, but you disappeared after you left. I'm not very good at lying, and I might accidentally expose you. Yun Shuo, you don't want this to happen, do you?"
"How could that be? I can't wait to fight them. After all, we in ELO don't have much food right now. Instead of letting them starve to death in the ELO organization, why not just let them out and cause chaos in the entire Cori City? What do you think?"
Yun Shuo knew that the current ELO did not want to face Ella and the others, but what they did not want even more was that it was Setash who was facing Ella and the others.
The internal conflicts in Kori City were intensifying, and if a war broke out at this moment, the conflicts would be diverted. To put it bluntly, Setaishi had come from an unjust position, and he was trying to use the name of ELO to give himself a reputation of being highly respected.
What Setash hoped was that Ella would go crazy, and then the people would be outraged. He already had the support of the nobles, and he would take away the halo of "what the common people want" from the ELO organization and put it on his own head. By then, he would be the rightful "successor to the city lord" in terms of both emotion and reason.
But if the ELO organization goes crazy, they already have a history of attacking civilians. Although we don't know whether those who attacked civilians are from the ELO organization, it's still shit.
It's okay on normal days, after all, you have done your best and done practical work in ELO, but if you do this kind of thing again in the future, the stain will be completely expanded, and in the end you won't be able to wash it off even if you throw it into the water.
For the sake of his good reputation, Sai Taishi had to swallow the bitterness in his heart and said with a smile that the bitterness given by Yun Shuo was sweet.
"Okay," Setash said, not only failing to criticize others but also being criticized himself, so he could only grit his teeth and smile, "Of course there will be no problem."
He glanced at the half-dead guy behind him with a sinister look and said, "Then let her die."
After saying that, he took out his pistol and pointed it at the guy behind him.
The woman who had been resting with her eyes half closed suddenly regained strength. She struggled desperately, but found that her body did not obey her at all. She could only thrash helplessly on the shore like a stranded fish. Tears welled up in her eyes, "Lord Setash, I was wrong. Please..."
"Wait." Yun Shuo suddenly spoke to stop him.
Saitaishi couldn't hold back his smile. "You're just being so arrogant, aren't you, Yun Shuo? Why are there so many things going on? If I want to kill you, it's you. If I want to wait for you, it's you." "What's wrong now? Are you reluctant to let go again?" He asked angrily.
"Leave it there and kill it when Willis comes." Yun Shuo's words seemed to treat the man as a piece of meat on the chopping board, making Sai Taishi feel that the other party seemed to be saying that his knife skills were not good and asked him to find someone with better knife skills to cut it.
But...why?
Saitaishi ignored Yun Shuo's words and shot the woman behind him directly.
But Yun Shuo was faster than him.
Setash only felt a sudden shock in his palm, and the muzzle of the gun went straight to the corner of the wall, and the bullet naturally hit the floor.
He tightly covered his trembling hand, and shouted with red eyes: "Yun Shuo!"
"You might not have been paying attention to what William said before. So let me repeat it again. At the very least, in ELO territory, you and I are equals." Yun Shuo tilted his head, placed his pistol on the edge of the table, and asked, "Do you understand this time?"
"I understand." Saitaishi panted and said through gritted teeth, "You are really bold. You are not afraid that the pistol will malfunction and we will die together."
"Lord Setaishi is different from us common people. How can a gun without divine power appear in your hands?" Yun Shuo put an end to this farce. "Now that our personal grudge is settled, we can talk business."
Saitaishi waved his hands, sat up straight and said, "Okay. I'll give you food, what do you give me?"
"Support?" Yun Shuo said shamelessly, "You want the horse to work, but you don't give it any grass to eat. I haven't even said anything to you yet. You said you wanted our ELO to support you, but so far we haven't received a single penny from you. How cruel of you!"
Still not satisfied, Yun Shuo added, "It's just such a small amount of food, and you're already feeling bad about it. I haven't even asked you to support all the members of our ELO organization yet."
"Why should I support you?"
"You've been treating us, ELO, like your own private army. If you don't support us, who will you support? Do you really think you can gain so much support with those empty promises? Don't be dreaming in broad daylight."
The sneer on Yun Shuo's face and the surprise in his eyes made Sai Taishi realize that this man would never choose to swallow his empty promises. He had to have real benefits to make him stand on his side firmly.
"I've never seen such a useless private army like yours," Setash said sarcastically. He raised a finger and shook it, criticizing the other party. "A bunch of old, weak, and sick people, you think you can afford such a high price?"
"No, no, no," Yun Shuo knew that the other party hadn't understood what he had understood yet, so he took the initiative to extend his palm to wrap around the other party's finger that was dangling disdainfully. "What we are selling is not people, but public opinion. It's easy to gain power, but public opinion is hard to gain. You don't want someone to stab you in the back in the future, do you?"
Chapter 51: Pork Delivery Theory
Setaishi pulled his fingers out abruptly, "Of course I don't want to."
He looked into Yun Shuo's calm eyes, hoping to get a promise from him. He asked, "Will ELO always support me?"
"If you can ensure that no one in the entire city of Cori ever dies from lack of food and clothing, I guarantee that ELO will never exist. All the people will support you, and you won't have to worry about anyone accusing you of usurping the throne behind your back. They will only wonder why you didn't ascend to the position of city lord sooner. If they had known this, they wouldn't have followed me at all, but would have followed you devoutly."
Yun Shuo's words were so sincere, but they felt like a slap in the face of Saitaishi.
Could he do it? Would he? All of Setais's wealth, all the wealth accumulated from his ancestors, was taken from the people.
Now, Yun Shuo told him that if he returned these things to the people, the people would naturally support him, but was he really willing to do so?
At this moment, Saitaishi did not answer. He put aside this question and the thoughts about this question. He just shifted his gaze and no longer faced Yun Shuo.
"At least, I need to sit in the mayor's chair first before I'm qualified to think about the future of Corrie City."
Yun Shuo took the initiative to stand up and walked around to his side. "You can be more confident. I remember that you seemed to have brought an agreement when you came. Can I see it?"
Setash took the agreement from the servant, but he did not hand it to Yun Shuo. Instead, he tore it in half in front of him. "We don't need an agreement, do we? I have enough confidence in you."
No one knew the contents of the agreement better than Setash - an agreement that could never have come about under these circumstances.
Yun Shuo stopped holding onto the document and sat back down calmly. "I hope every discussion we have in the future can be as harmonious as this."
“Harmony?”
"Why is it not harmonious? You and I respect each other and work towards the same goal, so why is it not harmonious?"
Yun Shuo's words made Saitaishi want to laugh, and he did indeed curl up the corners of his mouth.
What made him laugh even more was that Yun Shuo would sit opposite him calmly for a long time in the future, saying and thinking about things that Sai Taishi could not give him and did not want to give him, but they had to sit here and talk about these things.
Why can't this guy just live on the little bit of money I give him? He's already promised to give him a noble title, isn't that enough for him?
