Chapter 53: The True Goal of the Robbers
"I can tell you about that woman, but in exchange you have to call one of your men, and I have some questions for him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Benjamin asked Scar.
Scarman's men had all been sent outside, and now there were just two of them in the sewers. Benjamin could have killed Scar Man with magic at this moment, and no one would find out.
But he didn't do it.
Kill Scar Man, and he'll have a bit of trouble finding that assassin. Instead of using force so quickly, it is better to talk to the other party about the conditions first, anyway, Mr. Assassin is Scarman's subordinate, and it is very convenient for Scar Man to call him over.
When he had finished asking questions, Scar Man sent Mr. Assassin away, and at that point, Benjamin was ready to do it. And after he kills Scar Man, he only needs to find another exit to the sewer, and he can escape. The men outside probably don't even know what's going on.
No way, there are too many of them, Benjamin can't kill them all, and it's a bit bloody and easy to get into trouble.
That's the plan Benjamin came up with on the way here. This plan is still relatively perfect, and the only difficulty is how to convince the scar man.
He certainly wouldn't have agreed to Benjamin's offer so easily.
"Swap? You are the eldest, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me? I even killed the paladin, why do you think I dare not kill you?"
As he spoke, the man with the scar took out his pistol and put it on Benjamin's forehead. His index finger hit the trigger, and with a slight pull, Benjamin would have been shot in the head.
If Benjamin had been pointed at a gun for the first time, he might have been in a mess, but alas, it wasn't the first time.
Faced with this situation, although he was inevitably still a little nervous in his heart, his thinking was still very clear. It was impossible for the scar man to kill him, and the other party did it just to scare him.
Hasn't he been scared enough times since the crossing?
"Kill me, you'll never know where Michelle is. He looked the other man in the eye and said this in an unusually firm tone.
The scar man didn't move, the muzzle of the gun was still pointed at Benjamin's forehead, and Benjamin even felt the coldness of the muzzle and the hidden heat inside the gun. For a second or two, he thought he was about to shoot.
The standoff lasted about half a minute.
The scar man suddenly let out a cold snort and put the gun back.
Despite the anticipation of this scene, Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and the marks that had been pressed out of the muzzle.
What can be done, even if you think clearly in your heart, a gun against your forehead, won't you be frightened?
Just when Benjamin thought that the scar man would speak, he suddenly grabbed Benjamin's hands, restrained Benjamin with a grappling-like motion, and then began to search Benjamin's body.
Benjamin was a little surprised, but not surprised.
With the cunning of the scar man, seeing that he is so bold, he will definitely be suspicious.
Soon, the paladin's special gun that Benjamin was carrying was searched by Scar Man.
Scar Man took the gun, let go of Benjamin, and laughed.
"I say, a noble little kid who can be so calm when he is pointed at gunpoint must be tired. He looked at the gun in his hand, and then tucked it into his belt, "But I underestimated you, if I hadn't kept an eye on it, I would have capsized in the gutter today." ”
Benjamin looked at Scar Man angrily.
Damn, don't shove my gun into your, I'm dirty.
However, Scar Man clearly misunderstood Benjamin's anger, and he smiled even more proudly.
"How is it, Master Benjamin, now, do you still want to negotiate terms with me?"
Benjamin snorted disdainfully and said, "Of course you have to talk, if you don't call that subordinate of yours, I'll be dead, and I won't tell you anything." ”
The Scar Man finally showed a surprised expression.
He leaned over and looked at Benjamin again, and his mouth made a surprised sound. He walked from left to right, and from right to left, and looked at Benjamin for a long time, and suddenly, hey, laughed.
He said: "I have never seen such a bold aristocrat, interesting. Okay, don't you just ask a few questions. If you tell me the whereabouts of that woman, you can ask hundreds of questions! Whoever you want to meet, I'll call him. ”
His attitude changed rapidly, and he was still fierce just now, but suddenly, he took out the face of a hero.
Benjamin didn't care about Scar's abrupt transformation. He was very happy to receive a satisfactory answer.
The biggest difficulty is solved.
Everything went smoothly as he had planned, and Scarman agreed a lot easier than he had imagined. Next, there is no possibility of accidents.
Maybe Scar Man agreed so easily because he began to think that Benjamin was suspicious and wanted to test Benjamin. But, whatever, what if he was tempted, could it be that he could still test the identity of the mage?
To put it bluntly, Benjamin can kill the other party in seconds at any time, and he has no fear.
"The tall, thin, freckled one, in tattered linen clothes, I saw him at the tavern. He replied.
Hearing this, the scar man nodded and said, "Okay, I promised your conditions, and you have to remember to fulfill your promise." With that, he turned around, walked to the entrance of the sewer, and shouted loudly outside.
"Where's the bamboo pole, call him to me!"
After a while, there was a response from above: "Boss, which bamboo pole?"
The scar man looked impatient, and shouted at the top of his voice: "The new bamboo pole, it's not the old bamboo pole, it's the new one a few days ago! Let him come down, I have something to ask him!"
There was no sound on it, and Scar Man and Benjamin had to be patient and wait for a while. Finally, the voice came from above again:
"Boss, the new bamboo pole said that he was in a hurry to pee, and he ran to pee, but he had been urinating for a long time, and no one could find him. The rat said he was too tender, presumably just scared out of his balls and ran away. ”
“......”
The scene was very awkward for a while.
What's that?
Once again, Benjamin felt a deep malice from this world.
"Did that person recognize me too, so he ran away before I could find him?" Surrounded by a sense of pit that he couldn't spit out, he asked the system with a deep resentment.
"Probably not, I looked at the way that person looked at you before, it really didn't look like he recognized you. The system replied, "But looking at the way he walks all the way, he really looks like he is in a hurry." ”
Benjamin was silent for a moment, and said a little speechlessly: "So you mean, he really went out to pee, and then he really got lost and couldn't come back?"
The system said indifferently: "Maybe, with his character, it's not strange to do this kind of thing." ”
“......”
What to do, the system seems to make a lot of sense, and Benjamin feels like he can't find any reason to refute it.
Alas......
Play with yarn.
Why was this person gone? I was so unlucky?
He followed here with great difficulty, carefully customized the plan, and persuaded the scar man with wits and courage, but as a result, he was planted on a "urine urgency"?
Benjamin's face was loveless.
As for the scar man, after hearing his subordinate's answer, his face didn't change much, he just shouted casually outside: "Got it, it's none of your business, why should you go!"
After shouting to his subordinates, he walked back in front of Benjamin, spread his hands helplessly, and said, "You also heard, it's not that I don't help you, people run away by themselves, what can I do? You can't blame me." ”
Benjamin had no choice but to ask about the Assassins' plan, and it ended in failure - and in such a completely unexpected way.
But he didn't give up.
After thinking about it, he said again: "Then you have to at least tell me the news of this bamboo pole." When did he come, where did he come from, where did he generally move, what was his name. If you don't have any of that, don't even think I'll tell you where Michelle is. ”
Hearing this, the scar man's face sank.
"You're asking a little too much, do you really think I have to rely on you to find that woman?"
"Of course, no one knows where she is but me. Benjamin replied confidently.
It's not that he's inflated, but he knows exactly how skilled Michelle is at hiding. Even the church had to rely on Benjamin to find Michelle, let alone this bandit leader.
Looking at him like that, it is estimated that he has been looking for Michelle for several months, but he can't even touch a single hair. In this case, Benjamin is the only clue he can find, how can he possibly do it to Benjamin?
It's not just because of strength and fearlessness, it's simply 360 degrees of all-round fearlessness.
It seems to be a little inflated, no, no, no, keep your mentality, and be cautious about the enemy.
"Damn, little bunny, dare to be so arrogant in front of me. Sure enough, Scar Man withdrew his hand from drawing his gun, grabbed Benjamin's collar with one hand, lifted him up, and began to curse in his mouth.
What else can this reaction say?
It shows that the scar man really can't do anything about Benjamin, so he can only swear a few words, but he can't do anything.
Seeing this, Benjamin was a little curious. What kind of feud did Scar Man and Michelle have that would make him so persistent in finding Michelle?
Cautious, he began to try to analyze Scar's psychology.
Hatred should not have such power, it can only be ...... It's the interest.
Suddenly, Benjamin seemed to think of something. He looked at Scarman's close, violent eyes.
No, this is not a pair of violent eyes, the emotions hidden in these eyes are helplessness, unwillingness, and ambition...... He was the most powerful robber in the kingdom, but his mountain was destroyed by the church, and his men died, and he was the only one who escaped. He shouldn't hate Michelle, he should hate the church, but he doesn't have the power to fight the church, unless......
A thought crossed Benjamin's mind.
An unfounded, yet extraordinarily convincing conclusion.
He wanted to learn magic.
Scar Man is looking for Michelle, not because he has a grudge against Michelle, but because he wants to become a mage through Michelle and gain more power.
At the same time that Benjamin came up with this conclusion, the scar man was also looking at Benjamin, perhaps speculating about Benjamin's psychology. He looked at Benjamin's unchanged expression, and suddenly, his brows were knotted, and he said a sentence:
"You're a mage?"
