Chapter 181: Redefining Monsters (Part I)
"I have the opposite opinion of you, Mr. Tyre. ”
When Lin Qiu went out with Phoenix, he was stopped by a young man. The retro white court tuxedo with white satin gloves was an old-fashioned aristocratic attire that had been abandoned by the nobles of the imperial capital decades ago. But compared to this young man, Lin Qiu was the first to notice a few people hiding in the shadows.
It was difficult for him to compare these people dressed like commoner passers-by to knights, they had the demeanor of civilians, and the awe-inspiring aura they exuded from time to time revealed their presence. When he and Phoenix first came to the hospital, these people didn't exist. He could feel the eyes of those people on them from time to time.
"The boy's name is Julius...... I have heard from my men that he had passed out when they found the child, and I regret it, except that it is not wise for me to go to the North alone...... However, we have actively contacted the hospital and spent a lot of money to get the best doctor for him, and I have just consulted with Dr. Susan, and Julius's injury is no longer serious, so I think we should look more ambitious. ”
Lin Qiu vaguely guessed the identity of the other party.
This was not the first time he had heard the term Musa Consortium, and the last time Ella interviewed him, he occasionally complained about the eldest young master of the Musa Consortium once in a while.
Eric Moussa, the fourth successor of the Moussa consortium, took over the entire consortium at a young age like Lilith, the difference between the two is that even before coming to the imperial capital, Lilith always maintained her exposure, and she often attended the auction houses of the chamber of commerce in the major chambers of commerce, always reminding people that she was the new head of the chamber of commerce. Especially after coming to the imperial capital, she has already been involved with the media, and Ella can complete the first draft of the interview with Lilith in the time of a history class.
But on the other hand, Lin Qiu's grades in history class plummeted.
Lin Qiu still hasn't figured out the logical relationship here, but judging from his occasional attendance in history class......
The bad-eyed history teacher mistook Richard for Lilith and Lilith for Ella, and stubbornly believed that Ella was the famous Tyre Cyrus.
As for Lin Qiu.
The history teacher affectionately called him "Odin Aglan", Lin Qiu borrowed the list of the entire class from Mr. Jeff, and searched for a morning but did not find anyone named "Odin Aglan".
But he didn't care about the little thing.
This is not out of open-mindedness, but because Odin Aglan has been disqualified from the year-end exam because he missed more than two-thirds of his history classes. "Tyre Cyrus" was deducted 20 points for talking too much nonsense in class. In contrast, Tyr-Cyrus has a slightly better result.
After all, Ella rarely misses class in order to catch up with press releases in history class.
Not to mention those sad things, Lin Qiu planned to pay attention to the incident itself: "What is the more distant relationship you are referring to?"
"The relationship between humans and monsters. ”
Eric Moussa blurted out.
When he first arrived in the imperial capital, he heard about the existence of Phoenix from the mouths of the people. Phoenix's appearance is really eye-catching, and everyone knows that she has the identity of a monster, but to Erik's surprise, people are able to accept Phoenix, and even get people to smile when he walks on the road.
The efforts of the Moussa consortium have been realized without him even realizing it.
He had heard of Phoenix, and the name was associated with Tyre-Cyleus.
So Eric understood a truth.
"Mr. Tyr, have you ever wondered why Phoenix is acceptable to humanity, and where does humanity's trust in her come from? As far as I know, at least Phoenix has not made any indelible contributions to the people of the Imperial Capital, and her position at this moment is completely different from that of Herro. ”
"Don't call Phoenix so worthless! She will often go to buy snacks in the imperial capital, and has made outstanding contributions to the GDP growth of the imperial capital, how can you say that she has done nothing?"
"yes, I've spent a total of 1,000 gold recently!" Phoenix said proudly.
Eric suddenly understood the distress in the hearts of his staff, and he always felt that it was a little difficult to continue communicating with Lin Qiu.
But Eric didn't give up so easily.
"Mr. Tyr, do you think the people of the Imperial Capital really trust Phoenix?"
This is the conclusion he has come to after a lot of research and a lot of research by the Musa consortium.
In order to establish a relationship of trust, it is necessary for both parties to understand each other, and in the case of monsters, the level of mutual understanding needs to be more demanding.
Phoenix, on the other hand, obviously does not fit the "technique" they calculated.
Eric replied without asking, "No, people don't trust Phoenix, they trust you, Mr. Till. What you've done before has earned you the trust of everyone, and they're just transferring that trust to Phoenix. This is the same reason that people will think of Princess Sophia's unicorn as a harmless existence. ”
The concept of "pet".
When monsters transition into pets in people's consciousness, their previously vicious cloak is peeled off.
"But from what I've observed, your relationship with Phoenix is far from like that, and I think it's probably more appropriate to use the concept of friends and companions. So I don't think we're asking for selfishness – we're earning real respect and trust for your friends. ”
Eric Moussa's tone was a little agitated.
Since the founder of the Musa Foundation, the goals of the successive heads of the family have not changed, and in order to achieve them, they have conducted countless experiments to achieve them, and it was not until his father's generation that they made breakthroughs. They find a way to communicate with the monsters, which Eric believes is a crucial step in making peace between humans and monsters.
"I know it's hard for you to believe what I'm saying, so I'm going to invite you to see the latest results of the Moussa Consortium – I'm sure someone like Mr. Tyre will be able to agree with us!"
"Since you have sincerely invited, then I will accept your invitation with great mercy. ”
Lin Qiu's response greatly surprised Phoenix.
According to her understanding of Lin Qiu, even if she was angry at this time, Lin Qiu would refuse the other party's invitation.
Lin Qiu claimed to be a master of persuasion, how could he be persuaded by an unknown person so easily?
"You know what? I'm just superficially promising them. ”
After accepting the invitation, Lin Qiu gestured to Phoenix with his eyes.
Julius was attacked, and it was the Musa consortium that brought him to the hospital.
Even Mori Kogoro can see that there must be some unreliable causal connection here.
"Let's solve the riddle, Watson. ”
"Who do you call Watson?".
