Chapter 12: Fearless!
"Would you believe me if I said I picked it up casually, or if these three minecarts had been in this warehouse all along, my lord?" Sean looked innocent, his small eyes lit up, and his ears were ...... Uh, no, two little hands up.
Grian Stallman stared at Sean for a few moments before shaking his head, "I don't believe it." Little Slippery Head, do you think you hid the minecart in the warehouse and no one saw it? I have eyewitnesses! ”
Eyewitness?
Sean was stunned.
I went, what I did yesterday, was actually seen? It's impossible, I was already very careful at that time, and when I came back, it was already dark, who would have nothing to do to run to the warehouse and see himself?
Unless......
I'll go, is there still Grian Stallman at the Sardinia farm?
Sean looked at Grian Stallman suspiciously, and when he saw his smiling expression, he chuckled in his heart and instantly understood.
I'll go, this old fox, I'm cheating on myself!
There are no eyewitnesses to this guy at all!
Sean hurriedly showed a panicked look, and waved his hand again and again: "How is it possible, how is it possible!" I drove the lumberjack to cut the timber yesterday, but I didn't find the right wood, and I came back in the evening, and I didn't see any minecarts at all! Strange, where did these three minecarts come from? Inexplicable! ”
The most false lies are nine truths and one falsehood. In a bunch of words, most of them are true, and only one sentence is false, so that they can hide it from others.
Sean directly admitted that he drove the logging machine out yesterday, after all, this matter can't be hidden from others, and he asked someone casually. And it's normal for me to be a novice, a novice, a child, wandering around and not finding the right wood!
Sean couldn't help but praise his wit.
But Grian Stallman didn't know where to take out a piece of ore slag, stretched it out in front of Sean, and said, "Little slippery, you admit that you drove the lumberjack out yesterday, right?" So I found this on the lumberjack, how do you explain it? ”
Sean rubbed his eyes and stared at the piece of ore slag in Grian's hand, and in an instant Sparta.
The whole of the Wild West, just a few mines. The only thing that can be driven back and forth in a day on a logging machine is the Jangorod Mine. So Sean can't explain it at all, it's too obvious, right?
I blamed myself on being so tired last night that I was only thinking about hiding the minecart and didn't even think to check the lumberjack to see if there were any traces left.
Little did he know that if it weren't for his money obsession and the fact that he had to bring back the three minecarts, Grian wouldn't have thought of the Jangorod Mine or the Timbersaw......
Wrong!
It should be said that Grian first checked the lumberjack, and then found the ore slag, and then thought of the Jangorod Cave, and then found himself.
So, why did Grian go to check out the lumberjacks?
It was old Satin who praised himself that aroused Grian's interest! Maybe old Sardinia pulled Grian to the lumberjack!
Pig-like teammates!
This guy automatically filtered an important question.
If it weren't for the fact that this guy was so different, would old Sardin boast when he met people?
All in all, Sean is now suspicious of Grian.
But at least there are no eyewitnesses, and these are just Grian's speculations.
So Sean hurriedly made a look of "being found a little secret", and whispered with a "ashamed" face: "What's that...... My lord, that's actually what happened...... Yesterday I went looking for timber everywhere, and before I knew it, I ran to the Jangorod Mine, and I witnessed something very strange......"
"What's weird?" Old Glion was very conscious of his praise.
Sean said: "I saw that a large number of kobolds actually rushed towards the Gold Coast, and even threw down the minecart. Then, in my daze, I hung the three minecarts at the entrance of the cave on the lumberjack and drove back. ”
Old Grian apparently felt that Sean's words were in line with his own speculation, so he went on to ask, "Then why did you only bring back three minecarts?" Know that your lumberjack can carry at least five or six minecarts. ”
Sean exclaimed, "How dare I! At the entrance of the Jangorod mine, there are only three minecarts, and the others are in the mine. What if there were kobolds inside? I don't dare go in and look for the minecart, if the kobold finds out, I won't be able to run away! ”
In fact, kobolds have short legs, and they can still run......
When Old Greon heard this, he let go of his suspicions about Sean.
In fact, he couldn't have thought that last night's shocking bloody case was caused by Xiao Da's fooling. According to his speculation, Sean is at most a hand-holder. What he hoped most was that Xiao Da Flicker would be able to see why the kobolds attacked the fishmen of the Gold Coast, although there was little hope.
"Little Slippery Head, do you know why those kobolds attacked the fish-people on the Gold Coast?" Grian asked.
In this sentence, he planted another trap.
The kobold attacked the fishman, although the matter has begun to spread, but if Sean really came back last night and went to sleep, and was not called by old Satin until the morning, and then he overheard that old Satin did not mention it early in the morning, then Sean should not know that the kobold attacked the fishman.
He wanted to try one last time to see if Sean was hiding something and didn't say anything, and if it had anything to do with it.
However, he was doomed to disappointment.
Since he was suspected by Grian, Xiao Da flickered on his guard all the time. So as soon as I heard this, I immediately analyzed it in my mind eighteen times, and then exclaimed, "What? Kobolds attacked Fishmen!? ”
It's not all pretending.
Although Sean gave the order at that time to let the kobold attack the fish-man, the effect of the kobold war horn lasted too short after all, maybe the kobold woke up halfway and went back.
Now that he heard that the kobold had actually attacked the fishman, Sean was of course surprised.
Fortunately, he was really surprised, otherwise Grian, who was shrewd and sophisticated, would definitely notice it.
At this point, Grian really believed Sean's words, so he nodded and said, "That's right, the kobold attacked the fish-man and suffered heavy casualties. Do you know why they attack fishmen? ”
Sean thought to himself, that's not my brother, I'm handsome...... But you can't say that, can you?
So he replied with a blank face: "How do I know! ”
Grian was convinced.
A half-elf who is an underage should not know this in the first place.
So he patted Sean's little shoulder and said, "Little slippery head, listen to old Satin said, will you go to Shining Gold Town with him and follow us all the way?" You're going to apprentice the engineers of Shining Gold? Work hard, I'm optimistic about you! ”
