Chapter 177: Trading Conditions
"Alright, sir, ma'am, let's be honest. We need ...... from you."
"No, it's the U.S. government that needs the information you know, all the information about the future. So that we can better ensure the stability of the world situation and maintain peace. ”
"And of course you're not short of money. So in exchange, we can use manpower, experimental equipment, and physicists and cosmologists employed by the U.S. government to try to find out the truth about your repeated lives. ”
"Well, that's fair, isn't that what you want? Are you willing to cooperate?"
Condon's request was expected by both Zhuo Qun and Beilu, which was not unexpected.
But out of the desire for freedom, and perhaps because of the idealistic and optimistic nature, Bei Lu still asked unrealistically.
"If we say yes, will you let us go?"
This even made Condon's eyes show an incredible look, and he was stunned.
Immediately, he shook his head with a smile.
"No, of course not. From now on, you will live here, with the three of us and three other bodyguards accompanying you. Our relationship will be closer than a loved one, like the palm of a hand and a finger. Other than that, I'm afraid you don't have any other choice. ”
Bei Lu was stunned and disappointed.
"Yes...... It's not fair, we're completely harmless to you, why would you want to deprive us of our freedom?"
In the face of Beilu's grievances and dissatisfaction, Conton was not embarrassed, and emphasized in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Ma'am, you don't seem to have figured out the situation, your very existence is a threat to the world, a hidden danger. ”
"Forgive me for saying this, even if it is not your own will, but any country or organization that has the information you know may do something earth-shattering that will affect the world. ”
"Especially from the moment you made that announcement of the future, you allowed yourself to set foot in the forbidden realm. This is doomed to the fact that sooner or later the governments and organizations of other countries will notice you. ”
"You're very dangerous! You know, because the information in your head is so important. It means that everyone wants to find you, and at the same time they don't want you to be found by others. ”
"We've found you, but we can't let anyone stop beating you. On the contrary, as more eyes recognize your value and keep their eyes on you. You and we will all be in danger. ”
"Believe me, there will be countless people who will try to snatch you from us, or destroy you. Any agent who receives an order to try to take you away, and if they can't, kill you. You must not have imagined how cold-blooded and pervasive those killers were. ”
"So we are not only guards, but also your safety and friends. Only when we work together can we keep everyone safe. ”
"To be honest, I actually understand your feelings, being confined in such a place, restricted everywhere, no matter who is sad. But think about it from another angle, what if we really help you find a way to stop the recurrence of time?"
"Even if we can't, according to your time, you can start reincarnation again in no more than ten years, right?" Let's say that if you really help us a lot, maybe I can convince the upper authorities to send you to the United States and give you a new identity to live. ”
"Anyway, it's not a life sentence, please think about ......"
Seeing Beilu's tears pouring down again, her expression was almost desperate.
Zhuoqun, whose physical functions had not yet fully recovered, prevented Condon from going any further.
"Okay, please don't irritate my wife. She's not very adaptable. I'm afraid it will take time to digest it before I can accept the reality. As for me, I am already very aware of my own situation. So there are three conditions that I hope you can agree to. If I can, I'm willing to cooperate with you. ”
"I hope your conditions are relatively reasonable......"
Horton nodded, but his face was playfully wary.
Zhuo Qun was calm and eloquent.
"My conditions are simple. ”
"One, please don't ask us for any information related to Huaxia. We do not want to betray our motherland, this is our principled bottom line. ”
"Second, please try to meet our normal life needs and give us a certain amount of privacy and freedom. Please refrain from listening or monitoring in our bedrooms. We need to walk and breathe, and we also want to enjoy what we are used to. ”
"Third, in order to recall conveniently, we need to look up information, even go online, and subscribe to newspapers. How to solve this problem can be arranged by you. ”
After listening, Horton groaned for a while, and finally shrugged.
"Well, that sounds like a fair deal, I agree in principle. ”
However, he then smiled cunningly, not only asking for immediate results, but also delaying the fulfillment of the conditions.
"But don't worry, you have to take your time. You have to prove your sincerity to me first. I also have to show the actual results to the above before I have the power to meet your needs. ”
"Listen to me, don't fool me. What I need is something that I can use right away, you know? Not the kind of news that takes two or three years to prove true. ”
"And my superiors are even more so, those bureaucrats are a bunch of people who don't see the evidence, they only believe in seeing is believing. ”
"In this case, you guys take a rest first, and when your body adjusts, let's communicate. Until then, for the time being, your range of activities will be limited to this house. ”
"You can ask Gretchen for a walk-in on the wall, so you can find her at any time. And there will be someone outside your room who will be on guard 24 hours a day, and if there is an emergency, tell the person outside the door that it's okay. ”
"But please be aware that the windows in the bedroom cannot be opened, and the glass is specially made and bulletproof, so you can't see the inside from the outside. So please be at ease, and don't try anything to break the agreement between us. ”
"Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to trust your sincerity anymore, and our transaction will not only be terminated immediately. I'm going to do things you don't like to get what I want. Got it?"
In this way, when the door closed again and Condon, Akin, and Gretchen left, Bellu threw herself into Zhuo Qun's arms like a breakdown.
Her tears flowed uncontrollably again.
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for my stubbornness, none of this would have happened. ”
"I have pinned too much hope on this trip to the port city. I really didn't expect that it was all my wishful thinking, and instead led us all into a trap!"
"We're done, this life is ruined! We're going to be locked up here in the future! You scold me, I'm such a stupid woman!"
