Chapter 56: People don't get into the crowd, and don't persuade people lightly
If it weren't for the fact that the trauma they had suffered was so great, they would have considered staying to assist Shelley. After all, there are a lot of things that are still very real. Shelley is indeed a being who can entrust her with the future of the superpowers.
Don't say it's them, the one-month deadline hasn't reached yet, and Bai Yan has already agreed with Shelley. It was also while the three of them needed treatment, so she decided to go back early and tell her companions about the incident. And convey Shelley's willingness to cooperate.
Shelley wasn't prepared to let her go back empty-handed. Not only did they prepare a large amount of daily necessities for her, but they also gave away more than 20 cans of honey from the crops she and Nika had cultivated together. There are also several truckloads of fruits and vegetables that have been grown.
But in the face of Shelley's gift, Bai Yan was actually uncomfortable in her heart, with her understanding of those people, even if Shelley gave more things, they would not open their hearts to a human who had never met before.
"Even if you do, they won't necessarily believe you. To put it mildly, I can't guarantee that I will be able to meet you again after I go back this time. ”
Shelley was not surprised by Bai Yan's words, she stroked her hair and said, "You misunderstood, I didn't give these things for the cooperation we said before. ”
"Not for collaboration?"
"I haven't told you what the content of the cooperation is, what do you say when you go back? And I didn't expect to work with you so quickly in the first place. After all, I know that your voice over there is not the highest, and I gave you these things to bring back, not to show sincerity as you thought. It's for you. ”
"For me?" Bai Yan was a little puzzled, "What can I do when I go back?" ”
"If you keep your mouth shut about me, it shouldn't be anything. But if you do, you are likely to face misunderstandings, and in the worst case, you may even be mistaken for a traitor. ”
"How could I be a traitor?"
"I haven't hurt the superpowers, aren't you even giving me a chance to explain, and you're going to take my life when you come up?"
One sentence blocked the white cigarette holder, yes, the preconceived concept is very terrible, and when he thought that he almost killed Shelley, Bai Yan himself was a little afraid.
"I'm actually just going to remind you, don't rush to talk about my affairs when you go back. You can just make up a lie to hide the origin of these supplies, so it shouldn't be difficult for you to come out again. After that, I will regularly ask you to bring supplies back, and in the long run, I will rely on these materials to win people's hearts and find ways to improve my voice and status. In this way, their trust in you will naturally increase, and at that time, it is time to tell the truth of the matter. ”
Bai Yan didn't understand: "Is it necessary to be so troublesome?" ”
Shelley sighed lightly and said slowly: "White Smoke, this is the last truth I taught you before you left. You have no status, no right to speak, no one to support you, and if you are alone in a class group with strength as the boundary, there will not be many people who can listen carefully to what you say, and if you are not careful, you will put yourself in danger. ”
"But, as you know, only the more powerful we have, the more status we have, and even if I bring back more of these things, that won't change."
"Whether it will change or not depends on how you do it. Remember, the distribution of materials must start from the bottom, and you must not go through a second person, all by yourself. As for the people above you, you don't have to worry at all. Trust me, by that time, you'll naturally see results. ”
With that, Shelley took out a piece wrapped in cloth and placed it in front of Bai Yan.
"That's all I have to say, and you'll take care of those three children. This is a personal gift from me, I hope you enjoy it. "Everybody reads
After giving her something, Shelley got up, gave her a hug, and left.
White Smoke opened the package and let out an exclamation, and inside it turned out to be a delicate short knife.
Her own knife was scrapped during the attack on Shelley, but because it had been used for a long time, even if it was no longer usable, she was never willing to throw it away. She really didn't expect Shelley to remember this all the time, and specially asked someone to build her a new knife.
She slowly drew the blade. With a long cry. When the blade was unsheathed, the candlelight reflected back through it, and her eyes narrowed. Looking at the blade from the side of the candlelight, there is not a single line to be seen, indicating that it is very sharp.
Reaching out and flicking it lightly on the body of the knife, it was not the muffled metal sound as expected, but as crisp and melodious as when the sharp needle landed, which showed that its hardness was far from being comparable to the previous knife.
How did she know that this was a mille-feuille steel knife, a craft that had never been seen in this world. In other words, the knife in Bai Yan's hand is theoretically the sharpest and hardest man-made metal in the world.
"It's good that I'm a woman, otherwise it's over, it's really ...... It's too good at attacking people. Bai Yan smiled bitterly, even if Shelley didn't do this, Bai Yan would have accepted her from the bottom of his heart.
The next day, Shelley got specially customized clothes from Ah Su, and after explaining some things to everyone, he left Yongle City with Bai Yan under the hug.
Of course, White Smoke was going in a different direction, and parted ways with Shelley, and before leaving, she stuffed her previous knife and a piece of paper to Shelley.
"I really shouldn't have told you, but I believe you. If you get into trouble in Canterlot, go to this address and give this knife to an old man named Springwater. He will help you. ”
Shelley was not polite, and carefully put away the things: "I just how dare you operate in the human city before, and sure enough, there is someone there to pick you up." This person is also a superpower? ”
Bai Yan shook his head: "You will naturally know when the time comes, even if you are not in danger, I think you will need him sometimes." If my guess is correct, you will definitely go to the slave market this time, right? He can give you some information that the average person won't know. ”
"Oh? This is okay, so I'll be sure to pay it a visit. ”
White Smoke stared at Shelley's face for a long time, and when Shelley asked her what else was wrong, she actually fell on one knee.
"You're ......"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be loyal to you." As she spoke, Bai Yan lowered her head, and not only her, but the other three superpowers who were with her also jumped out of the car and knelt down on one knee in front of her.
"Your Highness Shelley Leigh, I thank you for all you have done, and may the gods bless you."
After doing all this, and not giving Shelley a chance to speak, they jumped into the carriage and departed into the distance.
Shelley smiled bitterly and got into the car and continued to drive towards Canterlot.
Shelley nodded, and after carefully putting away his things, the two parted.
