Before the game
"The scales of victory did shake slightly."
While saying this, Mrs. Nangong's eyes were following Xiang Nanxing's every little move, trying to see through his thoughts behind him and find the opportunity that made him rekindle his self-confidence.
Dozens of seconds ago, when he found that there were still special bullets in the box, Xiang Nanxing, who had originally decided to give up his scruples and attack with all his might, was stunned. He obviously couldn't understand why a dead end like this, which looked like a special place, didn't even have anything special in it.
But at that moment, a sudden look of enlightenment suddenly appeared on his face, as if he had suddenly figured out the trick inside. After that, he seemed to cringe, but in fact gathered the full strength of the previous accumulation. Although the result only wiped his opponent, after learning this result, he exuded a satisfied mood, as if he had paved the way for the next move.
These details are enough for the meticulous Mrs. Nangong to draw conclusions.
"That's right, the key to the game was discovered so quickly."
Madame smiled and said to herself:
"Xiang Yun, you have an amazing son...... No, you shouldn't say that. β
She turned her head to look at the girl in the other room.
"This generation of young people is also quite remarkable." She was heartily emotional.
Rewind time to half a day ago, when Xiang Nanxing had just drunk the tea mixed with medicine, collapsed on the sofa and fainted. Mrs. Nangong called someone to take him down, and she moved to the window and dialed the phone. The phone is relayed through a satellite exclusive to Nangong Jia, and in addition to excellent secrecy, it can also cover some places that ordinary signals cannot reachβfor example, an airplane flying at full speed.
"Lord Tai, there's a guest at home." She spoke succinctly into the other end of the line.
There is no need to say more, and there is no need to even give any hints about the identity of this so-called guest, she has always believed that Nangong Tai can find out the answer as soon as possible, which is the trust that the two have accumulated over the years.
And Nangong Tai did not live up to this trust.
"The kid with the last name? It came really fast. Listening to the voice, you could feel that the man opposite had frowned, "How did he get in?" Who is the 'Sentinel' today? β
"It's just respect, and there's Wild Revelation." Mrs. Nangong explained, "Jingzhi is still the same, the first shot was dodged and released directly, on the side of Huangqi, I guess there was no fight, it should have been deceived by someone with psychological tactics." β
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and only after a few seconds did I hear Nangong Tai let out a long hum. "Jingzhi's usual cleanliness habit is really ......," he seemed to smile bitterly, "Forget it, this matter has been revealed." What did that kid do after entering the door, he wouldn't directly challenge the Nangong family, right? With 'games'? β
"You really got it right." Madame smiled, "This young man is a real person, as soon as I tell the truth, he simply does not hide it, and directly admits it." You must know that at that time, I was still letting go of my murderous aura, and with his level, he should feel that he could be killed by me at any time. β
Nangong Tai snorted on the other end of the phone: "If he was a cowardly person, he would have died on Xifeng's side a long time ago." β
Seeing that his attitude was not tough, Mrs. asked tentatively: "Speaking of which, Xiao Qian was able to escape from there, and he can be regarded as having some credit......
"Even if there is no such thing as the 'White Night Festival', I am going to ask for someone, and the result is still the same. What credit is not credited, not needed. Nangong Tai's tone was ruthless, but the second half of the sentence still changed slightly, "But to be able to enter the door of Nangong's house, according to the rules, it is to give a chance, and to avoid the war is to leave a laughing stock, I guess he also plans to do so." β
"But if we accept the challenge, we use the rules on our side." Madame said in a brisk tone, "It doesn't sound good to use the rules of killer duel to deal with an ordinary person." β
The voice on the other end of the line was silent for a few seconds.
"You seem to take good care of him." He said suddenly.
Madame did not deny it: "After all, he is the son of the old man, if he can, at least I hope he can get out of here alive." β
On the other end of the phone, Nangong Tai smiled helplessly. His wife knows him, and he knows his partner well enough. This woman who looks gentle and demure on the outside actually has a very stubborn side inside, and she now clearly says that she wants to leave a life, that is, she will never be hurt. Not to mention that he is too far away to reach now, even if he has returned home, I am afraid it will not be so easy to change this mind.
But this is not unexpected. Ever since he knew that kid was Xiang Yun's son, he had somewhat expected today's situation. He guessed that Xiang Nanxing must have done a lot of preparation work before this operation, sorting out the cards that could be used in his hand, such as the identity of the alternate, like the prestige that the Nangong family could not give up. But this kid definitely didn't know that he was the most life-saving trump card to rely on.
He sighed.
"I can promise you that, but I'd like to ask you a question in the other way." Nangong Tai said, "If Xiang Nanxing wins, his request will definitely be to take Xiaoqian away, when the time comes, will you be willing?" β
Madame smiled.
"Xiao Qian didn't say she could take it away, and she still had to nod her head in the end, didn't she." There seemed to be a deep meaning in her words, "You have been with her all the way, do you think she has the intention of leaving the family?" Like Xiao Wang? β
She said lightly: "I remember that we just have a thing that is very suitable for the current situation, firstly, this is also one of the killer training, and it will not fall, and secondly, it is also a game form passed from Xifeng, even those hosts are not easy to say." Moreover, it is just right for this kind of 'conscience' requirement...... 'dark forest', you remember. β
Nangong Tai was silent for the third time. But this time, after the silence, he burst into laughter.
"Qingyu, you are such a genius! Sure enough, it's a good way to solve all problems at once. He smiled and said, "I guess you're ready now, in order to close the time gap between the two sides, you've probably taken medicine to put him down, so you can start the game when the time is up...... Very good, this suggestion, I took it. β
He looked at the time and said in a deep voice: "Four hours and twenty-five minutes, this is the time it takes me from picking up the phone to landing, and it is also the time I give that kid." When he wakes up in a moment, you tell him about it. If that time is exceeded, I'll go see him personally. β
"Understood." Madame nodded.
"Also, about the host who was summoned from Xifeng's side......"
"Understood, I'll explain it to them when I see them." Madame said.
"It's not this, I mean ......"
Nangong Tai paused.
"It's almost time for them to arrive."
This sentence was like a thunderbolt passing through her mind, and Mrs. Nangong was slightly stunned, and then startled. As if she suddenly felt something, she jerked her face to look behind her.
At some point, there was already an extra figure on the windowsill. It was the silhouette of a woman, lying on the windowsill, her posture like a cat, and when Mrs. Nangong turned her face, she also reacted instantly, and jumped forward, leaving only an afterimage.
She moved very fast, but not as fast as her eyes. Madame's gaze followed the afterimage, but she saw that the other party had stopped on the edge of the sofa as if she had given up, and was bending down slightly. It was the place where Xiang Nanxing fell after falling unconscious, and the woman's nose twitched slightly, as if she smelled the smell of the residue on it.
"Sure enough, I was in the right place." She raised her eyebrows and smiled sweetly at Mrs. Nangong.
