Chapter 460: Equal Exchange
Charles touched the hot laptop, and a strange feeling appeared in his heart.
It's just a simple video, but it's so stressful on the CPU? Even the fan is blowing?
Seeing that Johnson was still thinking on the screen, Charles thought about it, moved his fingers holding the computer slightly, and pressed the three keys of T+ESC at the same time, trying to pop up the task controller.
But to his horror, there were no windows on the screen other than Johnson's face.
"What are you doing?" Johnson's voice sent a shiver in Charles's heart.
Charles pretended not to care and replied: "It's nothing, I haven't seen the computer for a long time, I'm a little curious, what do you think, just tell me the key clues, and let's go back to the surface together." ”
Johnson said with a serious expression: "Yes, we do know that this is underground, and we are also in the possibility of going out, but whether what you say is true or not, we really don't have the key." ”
Seeing the anger on Charles's face, Johnson said again: "But I have just discussed with the mayor, if you don't believe that you can go to No. 68 to find it yourself, but as a condition, you must order your subordinates and yourself to answer all our questions." ”
"Oh?" Charles was happy in his heart, no matter what, as long as it can be carried on, sure enough, only when there is equality of strength, there can be equal dialogue. "I agreed to this condition. ”
Soon, Charles was ushered into a room that was exactly the same as before, and this time, the other party seemed to be much more sincere, at least there was a real person sitting in front of him.
On the opposite side of the table sat several people with white tablets in their hands, looking at Charles with serious expressions.
"Mr. Charles, please also answer our questions truthfully, it will be good for both of us. A woman with long silver chain earrings was the first to speak.
"Ask, hurry up and finish asking me to find the key. Holding the glitter in human form, Charles replied.
No matter what they wanted to ask, he didn't really have anything to hide, after all, he wasn't a hard-working underground worker, and he didn't have any information to protect with his life.
The woman slid her fingers over the tablet and showed the contents in front of Charles, the pages of his diary.
"Mr. Charles, please tell me the truth, what kind of text is this?"
"Kanji, haven't you seen it? Then your Foundation fault line is really powerful enough, are you the Foundation?"
Charles squeezed his shiny little arm with his hand, but the arm quickly fell apart, turning directly into beige tentacles and wrapping around it, sparkling giggles.
The woman who was questioned by the other party seemed to have some difficulty accepting the scene in front of her, and after taking a few deep breaths to calm down, she continued to ask the next questions.
"It doesn't seem to be any of the scripts used by Earthsea humans, can you tell me where it came from?"
"How do you know that no one out there uses this kind of writing? ”
Speaking of this, Charles's pupils shrank slightly, and he leaned forward, "Have you discharged a man named Feuerbach?"
"Mr. Charles, now I ask you to keep your agreement with the Mayor. ”
"Answer my question!!" Charles raised his hand and slammed it on the tabletop, and the metal table instantly dented a large chunk.
The four people in front of them trembled instantly, as if they were frightened by the tyrannical Charles.
"Wow~!" All the walls around him instantly became transparent, and all kinds of long guns and short cannons outside were pointed directly at Charles, and the atmosphere that had just eased up slowly became tense.
The negotiating woman listened to her wireless headphones and said earnestly to Charles: "Mr. Charles, we can answer this question, but you better not destroy the hard-won peace, no matter the circumstances, violence is always the last resort." ”
As she finished speaking, the walls turned white again, but Charles knew that the muzzles outside hadn't moved away from him for a moment.
"Have you sent a Feuerbach out looking for clues?" said Charles, asking her question again.
His second mate can breathe underwater and that modern firearm, no matter how you look at it, he is very likely to be sent out here.
"No, there are too many super anomalies out there, we don't usually go out to understand the situation, and most of them arrest some outsiders from the outside, such as you are now. ”
Charles exhaled. He knew that the possibility of the other party deceiving him in this aspect was very small, so in this way, there was nothing abnormal about his second mate, maybe he could talk to him when he went back this time.
"If you have any more questions? Charles sat back down, waiting for a question.
Then the other party began to ask Charles about his origin, and Charles said it directly without hiding anything.
When they heard that Charles was from the surface, the other party was very surprised and began to ask about everything about the surface.
Soon, however, they seemed to have received a prompt, and they began to shift their focus to the current distribution of power in the Earth-Sea and the specific situation of each island.
Charles replied quickly, he had nothing to hide in this regard, and he did not think that such information was of much value, they could easily get it by going to sea and catching a sailor.
After one question and one answer, time passed quickly, and when the inquiry came to an end, the four people standing in front of Charles whispered while looking at the tablet.
Charles teased Twinkle as he pretended not to care, while eavesdropping on the other party's voice with his keen hearing.
"Director, there's nothing wrong with the polygraph, the subject is telling the truth. ”
"Don't trust this guy too much, he'll compare the data with the data of other objects. ”
The other party seemed to be discussing something, but Charles couldn't wait. "Hey, I've told you everything I know, it's your turn to redeem the promise, right?"
As soon as Charles finished speaking, there was a "click", and the door next to him opened, and Captain Parker, who had sent Charles in, walked in, holding a new bracelet in his hand again.
"We'll let you go, but you'll have to take this with you, just in case. ”
"What's inside?" Charles asked curiously.
"With a control bracelet with a sodium cyanide steel needle, if you make any move that threatens others, we will directly press the switch and kill you. Parker replied very calmly.
Looking at the silver square bracelet sent over, Charles reached over and took it directly to his hand. "Hurry up, I'm getting a little impatient. ”
Parker was amazed to see how direct Charles was. "You're not afraid that we'll start directly. ”
"Do you think I'm like a person who is afraid of death? You can try, if I die, my daughter will be very sad, I will not lose a life for the life of an island. ”
Charles didn't care about Parker after saying that, and walked out directly through the open door.
