Chapter 370: Battle of Wits and Courage

When Daisy arrived, Barrett happened to be out.

But it didn't matter, and she wasn't in a hurry, so she sat down in a chair.

Her eyes looked at the duffel bag at the table with the big thorn, and she reached out.

Just as his fingers were about to touch the duffel bag, a voice came from his ear.

"Isn't this a habit?" Ace stood at the bedroom door and looked at her coldly.

"Huhuhu...... It's just a little curious. Retracting her arm to cover her mouth, Daisy's eyes smiled like a crescent moon.

Ace walked across from Daisy, stood against the wall, and looked at her coldly.

The hostility is very palpable.

Of course, Daisy won't feel it, she glanced at the door, but her mouth was very sharp: "Leaving so soon, is it possible that you are afraid of me?" Afraid of me as a woman? ”

Glancing at Daisy, Ace's voice was low and hoarse: "Afraid, why not afraid?" The femme fatale did not come out of nowhere. ”

Daisy wasn't angry at the sarcasm, she adjusted her posture, took out a cigarette in her hand and was about to light it, when she heard Ace's voice.

"I'm sorry, I hate the smell of smoke." The voice was sarcastic.

Frowning slightly, her hand stopped in the air, obviously this sentence made her a little angry.

"May I ask you what your name is?" Daisy pretended to be very interested and asked, in fact, both of them understood that they were afraid that their old bottom had already been investigated.

Without answering, Ace leaned against the wall and looked at Daisy through the cloak.

The atmosphere cooled down, and the two of them remained silent.

Fingers tapping on the metal cigarette case, Daisy was a little uncomfortable.

She has a very heavy addiction to smoking, especially when she is irritable, and she needs nicotine to numb herself.

But the woman opposite was very unpleasant, she felt a little dry nose.

The scene became more and more awkward, and after a stalemate of half an hour, Daisy finally couldn't help it.

Biting her lip slightly, she was about to stand up when she saw the door open.

Immediately sitting back in her chair, her expression changed to that seductive and seductive.

Barrett was a little surprised, although he knew that Daisy was coming for him, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"If it's still yesterday's topic, I don't think it's better to waste each other's time." Barrett said with a smile on his face.

"In fact, there are many things in our Juntian Group, which are among the top in the world." Daisy had already thought of the words, so naturally she didn't give up so easily.

"For example, there is the largest information processing center in the entire eastern region." Daisy smiled, "Huhuhu, if I'm not mistaken, you're looking for somewhere, right?" ”

"Is there an organization in the entire eastern region that is more powerful than our Juntian Group?" Daisy's cigarette turned gently in her hand, and her tone had to be said to be very seductive.

"Of course, this information center is naturally not available to anyone, after all, it is one of the top secrets of our Juntian Group." She continued, circling toward her purpose.

I have to say that when Daisy mentioned the information center just now, Barrett did hesitate.

He lacks time, but if he can really take advantage of it, he can save a lot of time.

However, he heard that there was a condition for using this center, that is, to join the Juntian Group.

It's not that he can't join, Barrett is worried about losing his freedom.

It's very deadly, he doesn't have time to spend here, so he can't and won't choose to lose his freedom.

Therefore, the negotiations are not destined to succeed.

"As tempting as your offer may be, I do find a town. But I'm sorry, I still choose to say no. Barrett again rejected Daisy's lobbying.

"Why? May I ask? Daisy's heart kept sinking, why did he still refuse? This time she needed a reason, and she didn't want to keep guessing.

Looking at Daisy, Barrett understood what she was thinking, but he couldn't tell the truth.

"My time is limited, and what you say violates this fundamental principle. So I can't say yes. Barrett shook his head.

"When?? If it is a disease or injury, our group is sure that it will cure all of them, even if it is an incurable disease! Daisy immediately rushed to say when she heard this reason, this kind of problem can be said to be fatal to ordinary people, but for pharmaceutical companies with certain technology, they can come up with countless ways to cure it.

Usually medical treatment does not work, it does not mean that biotechnology does not work, there is really no virus therapy, the last resort can also replace the biochemical body, as long as the brain is not damaged, then everything is not a problem!

"Sorry, it's not an injury, my mission is time-bound. It's not because of the body. "Barrett is still the same trick, half true and half false.

"Can you tell us a little bit about the mission? I'm certainly not here to snoop on your privacy, you just need to tell me a little bit about it. Daisy tried to come up with something, she knew that it was difficult to get an answer to such information, but as long as there were clues, she was not afraid that she would not find something.

".................." Barrett looked at her, his mind was spinning fast, unlike Ace and Hanyu, the Juntian group behind Daisy was too strong, and excuses such as pre-war soldiers couldn't fool the past.

Maybe they can find out the so-called pre-war information, Nightblade said that not everyone died in that war, and it is likely that there are people in the Juntian Group who are still alive before the war.

According to Daisy, life is almost endless, so living for more than a hundred years is not too much of a problem.

It's still the same old thing, I'm afraid it will be debunked soon.

But what excuse did he come up with to refuse? At the very least, it is not a good thing to reduce the hostility of the other party, and it is really not a good thing to be stared at by them.

After a few spins in his head, he decided to tell a big lie, so big that he was afraid of it.

"Actually, I'm looking for some kind of equipment left over from before the war, which is an artifact."

"Artifact ............" Not only Daisy, but even Ace looked up at Barrett in surprise, artifact? Does such a thing really exist?

"I've been given the task of finding an artifact and using it to change the current state of the world." Continuing to make it up, Barrett said with a serious expression.

"What state to change? Wait a minute, you mean it can save the world?? Daisy keenly grasped a few points in his words, saving the world? It's not impossible, it's like that kind of mutation, isn't it happening?

Before that rain fell, no one believed that man would become a beast, or that a beast would change with man.

"I'm sorry, but this involves my mission secrets, and I can't divulge it." Tapping his fingers on his temple, Barrett said, "There's a safety in this thing, and if I leak even a little bit of a secret, I'll die." ”

"............" Daisy was dumbfounded, and although it sounded unconvincing, she could only believe it.

Because with the development of the ruins, more and more things that humans simply cannot understand appear in front of them.

Many of the technologies used by Juntian Group now are miracles cracked by relics, and they are at a level that people can't reach.

What now? Report all this information to the Institute? The transfer of information is in trouble.

Gritting her teeth, Daisy can only make changes again, she can't bear this responsibility, someone has to make a decision.

But this person is not her.

"I think we can help with that, don't you think?" Daisy still has to trap Barrett here, knowing that the people above make the decision.

And the best way to delay is to give the other person expectations, or give the other party a reason to cooperate.

"Since you have limited time, it is all the more important to cooperate with us, and we can provide assistance in terms of information, as well as human and material resources."

"Since you don't want to give away the details, it doesn't matter. But give me some time, it's good for you and me! ”

The tone is real and the expression is rich.

This is Barrett's assessment of her, and I have to say that she did not resort to the same threats and intimidation as yesterday, and it was the right choice.

This woman was smart, Barrett thought alarmedly, he knew she needed time to report up, but he had to wait.

Because he changed his mind.

"If my partner and I are not restricted from freedom, I can give you a little time." Barrett said in a deep voice.

Seeing a flash of joy in Daisy's eyes, Barrett then said, "But the time is only three days, and even if I am out of the siege in three days, I will leave here." ”

"But I advise you to be wise, if my partner is harassed in any way............" He certainly knows the methods of these people, and he will do everything to describe them.

So he had to give Nightblade some protection.

"I see, everything is as you wish." Daisy replied softly with her head down.

Although she lowered her proud head, her heart was in ecstasy.

Yesterday's defeat was gone in an instant, and what he said would definitely be of interest to him, no, it should be said that it was a dream!

Those who stand at the top of the pyramid have already lost a lot.

Money, power, power, all these things have become readily available, what else can attract them?

That's the unknown!

They were obsessed with pre-war technology in order to find so-called artifacts or gods.

After all, as the losers of the year, they also want to be the masters of the world, like those who left.

It's just that so far, there has been no substantial breakthrough.

But! Now it's different! The clue to the artifact appeared inexplicably, is there anything more ecstatic than this?

The capable? What are they in front of the artifact? Amusing.

So in just a moment, Daisy understood what she had to do.

The previous task suddenly became dispensable, and all she had to do now was to rush back to the office immediately, and then have someone bring the news to the research institute!

Struggling to control her expression, Daisy walked out of Barrett's residence.

There were things everywhere that pleased her, even the high sun, which was no longer so dazzling.

Humming softly, she left a blue afterimage in the street.

No one dared to appear on the streets, and the lesson of last night made them choose to hide.

It wasn't until the blue afterimage disappeared that they came out from all corners with an unclear expression.

Barrett's room.

Ace looked at Barrett suspiciously, she was a little confused.

"What you say is true? To be honest, you're really different from the average person. "The terrifying skills, the strange abilities, and even the strange cognition have always puzzled her.

"Half-truths." Barrett honestly said that the situation just now was very dangerous, and while seducing Daisy, Barrett also put himself in an even more dangerous situation.

Artifact, of course he knows how attractive this kind of thing is to some people.

For in Frost, he had seen the killing and warfare that came with snatching these things.

Bass could do so much just to get a replica, but what if it was real?

The same works here.

People who don't understand naturally don't understand anything, but he can be sure that there are definitely people in Juntian Group who understand that secret.

So when he said this, he sold himself.

But this betrayal is not without its benefits.

Barrett was still gambling, betting that he could take advantage of the information gap.

Just when he was thinking about the excuse, he suddenly realized that if he didn't look for it himself, but let some people find it for him, wouldn't it be more probable and faster?

Especially when it's hard for him to get rid of them.

And he had already figured out that there had to be a greater good hanging in front of them in order for them not to dare to do anything out of line.

Next, it depends on who has a higher IQ, not compared to Daisy.

It's the guy behind her.

What Barrett has to do is to find what he needs to find while saving his life.

After all, against the entire Juntian Group, Barrett has no choice, he must continue to maneuver.

But he is not without hole cards, first of all, the information left by Dina will never be leaked, especially not to those who care.

And is there such a thing as an artifact? Barrett wasn't too worried.

The current people can get some technology from the things in the ruins, but their strength is too weak in front of the six major families back then.

It was fashionable and didn't find it, and the chances of finding it now are really low.

Unless............ They have the ability to dig up the ruins that lie dormant at the bottom of the sea.

It's a pity that the place that goes 20,000 meters deep into the seabed is more difficult to excavate than space.

So as long as he uses this information to hang those who still have fantasies in their heads, everything will not get out of control.

The only thing they are worried about now is whether their so-called mental abilities have the ability to steal their minds.

"The situation is constantly changing, shall we see the move?" Whispering, Barrett looked at Ace.

Ace looked at him quietly and didn't ask anything more.
