Chapter 425: Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives
Director Ken: "But ......" - reluctantly
Gordon: "It's nothing! I'm the ninth assistant to the world's top magician, and you're still afraid that I won't be able to escape?" - open the door for [Director Ken] and send the plague god. As soon as I opened the door, I saw [Zatana] and a group of guards quietly "guarding" (ambushing) outside the door
Zatana: "Yo, what a coincidence. By chance, he walked generously into the reception room
Gordon: "(Glancing at the guards outside the door)...... Oh, yes. "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives" (Speak_of_the_devil). - pun intent (another meaning of Speak_of_the_devil is: the devil is mentioned, and the devil can be heard)
Zatana: "Oh, you're thinking too much, the guards outside the door don't mean anything else. The director of [Rasputin] (secret guest) was shocked to hear that the [Elmeroi] teacher was going to duel with you because of the title of director of the sรฉance department, and he was afraid that you would make a move in the institute, so he sent guards to control the situation. - Explained
Gordon: "I see, I thought those guards were sent by the chief to arrest me." โ
Zatana: "How is that possible. You and I are both VIPs of the [Apostle of Death], unless you are guilty of the great crime of "rebellion", who would dare to touch you here?"
Gordon/Zatanna: "Hahaha......" - the two looked at each other and smiled
I (belly slander): "What are you laughing at, old guy, all this is obviously made by a bad woman behind her back, I can see it, can you see it?"
@
Director Ken: "[Master Zha]. - Salute
Zatana: "Teacher [Elmeroi]." - Bow to each other (magician's etiquette)
Gordon: "You heard what we were talking about, didn't you?"
Zatana: "No. The soundproofing in this room was so good that you couldn't hear anything outside the door. โ
Gordon: "Oh, then let me briefly tell you that the two of us are going to have a "duel of honor", and we jointly propose that you be the witness of the duel, do you agree?"
Zatana: "Ahh
Director Ken: "There is still room for improvement, but unfortunately he refuses to give in." โ
Gordon: "He wants me to betray my friends, which I can't do anyway!" - Firm
Zatana: "Two, two, "endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky." Let's take a step and benefit others and ourselves. -- Put on the appearance of a fair man and mediate in the middle
Director Ken: "Okay, for the sake of [Master Zha], I won't ask you to name all of them anymore, I only need the names of the most critical people among them." - Softening
Gordon: "Telling you a name is also betraying a friend, and there is no difference in nature. "- Definitely
Zatana: "You still refuse the new conditions offered by the [Elmeloi] teacher?"
Gordon: "I can't agree. โ
Zatana: "Well, then I'll have no choice but to declare the mediation fail, and the two of you can settle it yourself through the "Honor Duel". "-I can't bear it
Gordon: "Hmm...... Seven days later, you and I will have a showdown. Let's go, don't send it!"
Zatana: "Wait, wait, seven days later?" - snatched the conversation
Gordon: "Yes, we agreed that we would fight it out in seven days. โ
Zatanna: "(to [Director Ken]) You have a hole in your head! Promise him a duel in seven days?" - tearing off the disguise of "neutrality".
Director Ken: "It's not up to me. โ
Zatana: "Why didn't you decide, didn't you decide the time and place rules of the duel for the "honor duel" you proposed?"
Gordon: "You're mistaken, I brought up this 'duel of honor'. โ
Zatana: "Huh, didn't you propose this "duel of honor"?"
Director Ken: "I first proposed an "honor duel" to him, but he didn't agree at the time...... Later, somehow, he came up with a "duel of honor" ......" to me
Zatana: "You said yes on the spot?"
Gordon: "He swore by the honor of a magician and accepted the challenge I offered. โ
Director Ken: "......" - nodding
Zatanna: "You ......" - pointing to [Director Ken], unable to say a word
Gordon: "It's here, it's done, it's hard to change." - Schadenfreude beating the side drum
"Not necessarily. A woman's voice came from the door
Zatana: "Director [Rasputin]. โ
Director Ken: "[Iljana]. โ
Gordon: "You're the director of this institute?"
B.M.R.F.: "Why, I look too young?" - Enters the house
Gordon: "It's not about my age, you give me the impression that you lack intellectuality, and it doesn't look like you're specializing in academic research." โ
Secret Guest: "Your Excellency, my expertise lies in the practical application of new technologies...... (Bowing) [Iryana Rasputin], director of the Black Mountain Research Institute and court magician. - Introduce yourself
Gordon: "[Gordon E. Freeman], the ninth assistant to the world's top magician. "-- There is a way to learn from it, and to return the courtesy
Zatana: "Director Rasputin, you don't necessarily mean ...... when you said this."
Secret guest: "Don't you all know that "the local people follow the customs" and "the guest changes with the host"? Foreigners traveling to China must abide by China's laws and regulations and local social customs; well-known foreign search engine companies conducting business in China must be in accordance with relevant laws, regulations, and policies, and some search results are not displayed; the same is true for magicians affiliated with the Magic Association, didn't you all abide by the regulations of this institute when you entered the Black Mountain Research Institute, and handed in your respective witchcraft weapons and magic ceremonies? So the two of them had a "duel of honor" In the same way, the rules of the time and place of the duel shall first follow the rules of the firm. โ
Gordon: "Hmph, I didn't expect the duel between the two of us to alarm the director's master. โ
Secret Guest: "Your Excellency misunderstood, I was going to the downstairs hall to deal with other things, and I happened to be passing by here, and I happened to hear such an ear. "-- Emphasizing "Accidental"
Gordon: "Oh, that's a coincidence. โ
Myster: "yes, that's a coincidence. - Hiding a knife in a smile
Gordon: "Is there any other coincidence, such as the fact that duels are not forbidden within the institute......"
Secret Guest: "No, according to the regulations, private fights are strictly prohibited within the Institute. โ
Gordon: "Oh? What about our "duel of honor"......"
Secret Guest: "This matter is related to the honor of [Kenneth], he is an important friend of mine (็งใฎๅคงๅใชๅไบบ), so this time I have granted it." โ
Gordon: "How can you do this, you're a hooligan!"
Secret Guest: "What about playing hooligans, I am the director, and I have the final say on my territory!"
I (belly slander): "Director Huang Changzhi is unreasonable, the whole female hooligan, what should the old guy do when he encounters this kind of person?"
