Chapter 683: Borrowing a Chicken to Lay Eggs
At noon, somewhere in the middle of nowhere, there was a remote house in Coldwater City.
Independent courtyard with closed doors and windows. Bright light illuminates the crystal glass, which is not very pure, reflecting the magnificent color of amber. Occasionally, a butterfly will be confused and attracted, stay for a while, may find that it is not a petal, flutter its colorful wings, and leave again......
"Whew......" sighed faintly, Zachary's eyes drooped slightly, and his gaze was withdrawn from the crystal glass where the butterfly flew away, and there was a hidden fear and panic in his expression, but most of them were still confused......
Yes, just at a loss!
Zachary had been sent here late last night, expecting to be greeted by rounds of torture until he would rather die than give in, or be tortured but confess everything, without value, and then be killed quietly......
It's a normal process, and since Zachary found out that he wasn't killed on the spot, he was mentally prepared for it.
Fear? Fear?
Of course, there are these feelings, but Zachary thinks that he can look down on himself, after all, he has the experience of most of his life, and he can be regarded as living enough. In this way, there is nothing to be afraid of.
But just when he was thinking about it, he should choose to die rather than give in, and go to the gods or demons with secrets. Or in order to suffer less before dying, honestly cooperate with the other party's inquiry...... I have to say that this is a more painful choice. Zachary himself was a little hesitant, but then he realized that things were not going the way he thought......
It had been half a day in the middle of the night, during which Zachary had not closed his eyes and rested, and no one had come to interrogate him. Not to mention the scare and execution. He felt as if he had been forgotten. It's like this remote and independent courtyard. Deserted, no one cares......
Rubbing his eyebrows, the deep bags under his eyes also moved, Zachary now vaguely regretted, he knew this, he should have had a good night's sleep last night......
At this moment, there was a polite knock on the door.
Is it finally here...... Hearing this, Zachary was in good spirits. Sit up straight and maintain the demeanor of a big man: "Please come in!"
The wooden door was pushed open, and a young man walked in with a tray, the steaming aroma of the meal constantly emanating. Seeing this, Zachary frowned slightly, he had seen this person, and in the early morning, breakfast was brought in by the other party, obviously not the person who came to interrogate.
"Sorry, I don't know what Mr. tastes. So it's just some home-cooked side dishes. If the gentleman has any taboos, or preferences. Just let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate you. Putting down the meal, the young man said politely with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Hearing this, Zachary was slightly stunned, looked down at the food on the table, although it was not very expensive, but it was full of color and flavor, opened his mouth, raised his head, and laughed at himself: "The last good meal? Hehe, I didn't expect me to have such a big face." ”
"You're thinking too much. The young man shrugged his shoulders, didn't say much, and turned to leave.
"Wait, what the hell are you trying to do?" Zachary pressed against the wooden table, and finally couldn't help but ask in a deep voice, "Do you want to buy me off with these? I can tell you now that I won't say anything!"
This was Zachary's temptation, after all, the situation in front of him was too weird. But the young man was unmoved when he heard this, and spread his hands sideways: "Who cares?"
"Uh......"
Walking to the door, the young man paused, still didn't close the door, turned his head and said calmly: "By the way, if Mr. stays too stuffy in the room, you can go to the courtyard to carry out activities, as long as you don't leave here." Of course, you can't leave, hehe...... Well, may you have a good appetite and enjoy this wonderful lunch!"
As the words fell, the young figure disappeared outside the arch of the courtyard, leaving only Zachary stunned and stunned. Half-ringing, he shook his head inexplicably, picked up his knife and fork, and began to enjoy this wonderful lunch......
And at this time, above the roof, a chubby figure was lying on his stomach, reaching out to take out a pen and paper from his arms, muttering to himself, "What kind of is this, you eat and drink spicy food below, and I drink the northwest above, it's really ......."
Speechless shook his head, "Well, let me see...... Left-handed fork, right-handed knife, well, congratulations you're not left-handed...... I like to eat vegetables, and there is less meat, tsk, the elderly, I don't have that tooth, sympathize with it...... Yo, it looks very elegant, it's just too slow......"
While babbling, he waved his quill and wrote quickly. This posture seems to record in detail every move of Zachary who is eating below.
I have to say that this scene is a little weird. Although it is obscene enough to peep at a beautiful woman out of the bath or something, you can imagine the reason, which is not too exaggerated. But peeping at a bad old man eating...... This is an act that can no longer be described as a pervert, and it really can't be explained!
In fact, the pages of the book are turned in the cold winds that blow from time to time. You can also see some descriptions such as sitting posture, walking posture and so on, and the details are jaw-dropping!
About half an hour later, the man on the roof raised his body, gently closed the pen and paper, covered the gap in the roof tiles, raised his head, and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Nima, eat for a long time, you want to die in a hurry...... Huh?"
After a pause, he turned his head suddenly, only to find that a figure had already gone up to the roof, waved his hand, and walked towards this side silently. "Boss. With a relaxed expression, he also waved his hand to say hello.
"Hehe, how's it going, Harry, is there anything to gain?" Don walked over with a smile, his voice between the two.
"Now, it's all here. Handing over the pen and paper, Harry spread his hands helplessly, "Boss, I can't figure out what is the use of these trivial things for us? ”
Shaking his head, "Hehe, of course it's useful, you must know that the actions people make when they are nervous are always a little different from usual." Don took the paper in his hand, flipped through it, and nodded, "Go on, we still have about three days to go, and it's important to be sure to know Zachary's routine, daily habits, etc."
After a pause, he patted Harry on the shoulder, "This time we played a game of borrowing chickens to lay eggs, which was very interesting." ”
"Well, I'm fine, it's just ......," Harry grinned, gesturing at his feet, "It's unpleasant to see him eat and drink like this!"
"Ha, be considerate, it's not a few good days. Don shook his head with a chuckle, "Well, then, how about leaving the forced confession to you in three days?"
"Wow, I think I can't wait!"
"Haha......"
......
Not to mention what it means to 'borrow a chicken to lay eggs', Don has been in a state of busyness since he left here.
Since the purple-bore cannon has begun to be produced on a large scale, the required alchemy materials are a big problem. Zi Yi is the commander of the army, what he needs, whether it is forbidden or not, someone will naturally send it to the door if he passes on a password. But Tang En naturally can't, he can only operate through the guò black market, and he can't only pass the guò black market, otherwise it is very likely to be exposed.
Moreover, the weapon is made, and it is undoubtedly not possible to put it in Cold Water City like this, there are too many variables. Therefore, Tang En had to arrange for people to be transported into the 100,000 mountains, through the layers of defense of the Bran army, and delivered to the hands of the gray army Josia.
Yes, all of these things can be solved, but they also take a lot of time. And because of its self-evident importance, Don didn't dare to hand it over to others, so he could only do it himself.
In addition to these, the farce of cheats worth more than five hundred is rapidly fermenting, and Don N needs to pay attention to it......
In addition, because of the strong pressure of the Temple of Light, the 'forgery of miracles', and all kinds of ugly shady scenes of the clergy, etc., these incidents that should have set off a monstrous wave are quickly subsided. In this way, Tang En, who is the bitter master, of course, has to catch a few more clergy models, publicize and plan, and continue to pour dirty water on the Temple of Light......
What?Establishing a killer organization?
Oh, there's no rush to this, because there's a ready-made one waiting for Don to pick it up......
