Chapter 758: Another Paper Man (Part I)
"I'm sure he's not that kind of person." I said firmly.
Xuanhu's tone was firmer than mine: "People's hearts are separated from their bellies, and no one dares to guarantee anything." β
I sighed: "You still don't agree. β
Xuanhu looked at me silently, and did not express any opinions, looking at him like this, his attitude is his opinion.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
I said helplessly, and I was just about to get up, when the voice of Xuanhu sounded beside me again.
"You're an adult." Xuanhu said solemnly: "I can't make decisions for you forever, I will show you the pros and cons of the situation today, I am giving you a chance to choose, you must have at least judgment." You can choose however you want, but since you have made your choice, you are responsible for that choice. Whether it's good or bad in the future, you have to bear it! It's called responsibility! β
I carefully reflected on Xuanhu's words, and muttered, "You mean, I don't have to listen to you?" β
"Yes." Xuanhu nodded seriously: "But you have to think of a good countermeasure." β
As he spoke, Xuanhu leaned forward slightly, and his fingers buckled the table: "If he has troops in his hands and has different intentions, what should you do?" β
I thought about it for a moment and said firmly: "Check and balance in advance." β
"How are the checks and balances?"
I was about to answer, but was interrupted by Xuanhu: "You don't have to tell me, if you think this method is feasible, you can do it boldly." β
I thought about it for a moment and nodded: "You let me think about it, I remember what you said, there is no foolproof solution, I will not make a decision." β
"You're wrong again." Xuanhu said with a smile: "Don't be so naΓ―ve, there is no perfect strategy in this world, and there must be loopholes in everything." β
I looked at Xuanhu and muttered, "I remember." β
I must admit that Xuanhu invisibly taught me another lesson, a lesson on choice and responsibility.
At this time, a knock came in, and Xuanhu and I looked at each other and said, "I'll go open the door." β
I guess the person who knocked on the door should be a paper tyer, and Xuanhu's gaze always stayed at the door.
Sure enough, the moment I pushed the door open, it confirmed my guess that the person who knocked on the door was the papermaker. I hurriedly dodged out of the way and said, "Come in." β
The papermaker was not polite, walked out of the room, sat on the sofa with a big grin, and said slowly: "I have a new way." β
"Huh?" I said with some excitement, "Tell me about it." β
The paper-binding craftsman said unhurriedly: "The method you just told me is indeed feasible. But the stand-in has the same mind as you, and once he sees through your thoughts, he will definitely not take the bait. β
"What's your solution?"
The papermaker pointed at Yu Lan and said seriously: "Fight poison with poison." I'll stab another double of hers, and the chances of luring him out will increase a lot. β
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent in an instant. Obviously, this is a double-edged sword, and if this paper figure gets out of control again, it will mean that the situation will be worse!
I instinctively set my eyes on Xuanhu, who tilted his head and deliberately avoided my gaze. I thought about what Xuanhu said just now, and immediately understood, he wanted me to make my own decision!
Okay, then I'll be like a man, hold up this sky!
I unconsciously tapped the table with one hand and asked slowly, "How much chance do you think this method has to win?" β
"Half." The papermaker replied dryly: "I have never had such a thing, this method can only cross the river by feeling the stones, whether it will be useful, I dare not guarantee." β
I thought about it seriously, as long as the paper figure he pierced out would not run away, there was basically no risk. At worst, it's a wasted effort.
Thinking of this, I nodded: "Do it your way." β
The papermaker looked at Yu Lan: "I need her nails and blood." β
I grabbed Yu Lan and said, apologetically, "I have wronged you." β
Yu Lan was a little excited: "Then wouldn't I be able to see the exact same self?" β
I smiled helplessly, "Yes." β
"If it's okay, I'll go get the tools." The papermaker said with a smile.
