Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 68: Bait, please correct your attitude

     The two of them walked in the dark, going deeper and deeper into the ground.

   Lena watched this tunnel go deep into the ground, not the way out, and her anxiety became more intense.

   She feels like she is stepping into the abyss step by step...

   Finally, Lena couldn't bear the strange indifferent atmosphere, and asked carefully: "Mr. Sulun, where are we going now? Don't we go back to the ground?"

  Looking at the timid look, he probably felt that if something happened in this environment, no one would know if he broke his throat.

  "..."

   Hearing this, Su Lun looked back at her. After groaning for a moment, he said: "You don't think you are safe now, do you?"

"what?"

   Lena was seen as a little guilty, as if she could see from her eyes that there was a word engraved on her forehead: stupid.

Su Lun thought for a while, and explained: "The explosion will spread far and wide enough to attract the killer. Aberrations are only a means of murder, and the black hand behind the scenes...but people. People find that you are not dead, you think they are. Will you come to you? Go out now, I'm sure there will be a killer squatting outside for you."

   If saving people is to deal with a few aberration monsters as simple as that, he would not hesitate to decide whether to shoot before.

   The man behind the scenes is what he is really afraid of.

  ...

   "Huh? I...I..."

   Lena seemed to have a lot of contradictory information flashing through her mind instantly, and she was a little incoherent when she spoke.

   The monster was chased all the way just now, and there was no time to think about it. Then for the first time in an unfamiliar environment, changing clothes naked under the gaze of a stranger, his head is still buzzing and blank until now.

   After listening to the words, she also wanted to understand in an instant.

   Now, she knew that the man in front of her, as the aunt said, there will be a kind of almost inhuman calmness under any circumstances. (The original words seem to say how to bet on the gaming table, which probably means that anyway, it doesn’t matter anymore.)

   Thinking of this, Lena realized that she had really asked a stupid question just now.

   Such a clever gentleman, he must have guessed his stupid and naive idea just now.

   She blushed, and weakly expressed her apology for her wild speculation: "I'm sorry..."

  "..."

  Su Lun paid no attention to her, didn't seem to care at all, and moved on.

   In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Rena thought for a while, and then took the initiative to say: "Mr. Sulun, are you not curious why the trial will have an accident? Who else is behind the scenes?"

  Su Lun frowned, as if he felt a bit windy.

   It was probably because the claustrophobic environment made the eldest lady feel uneasy and made her want to talk for some comfort. But in this situation, is it time to chat?

   He, sure enough, a woman only affects the speed of drawing a gun.

  He said lightly: "Not curious."

  "..."

   Lena looked embarrassed.

  Su Lun looked at how she still wanted to say something, and felt that this kind of meaningless gossip should be killed.

He thought for a while, and said in one breath: "If you guessed correctly, your father should be critically ill or retiring, and then you are the first heir to the consortium, and you have to inherit the consortium as a matter of course. Unfortunately, you have it again. Some utilitarian uncles and cousins, and then... the man behind the action this time is probably you who died, so you are most likely to inherit a certain immediate relative of the consortium?"

   Hearing this, the shock in Lena's crystal eyes grew stronger and stronger, and she exclaimed: "Ah...you...how did you know?"

  "..."

   The corners of Su Lun's mouth collapsed, and he felt a little boring.

   After all, it’s because the world’s entertainment industry and communications are underdeveloped, and people at the bottom cannot eat melons in the upper class.

   But this kind of infighting among giants, in the novels of Su Lun's previous life, has been played badly in the major financial groups in reality. What gambling king forced to continue his life, a few house aunts fought for power; what was the son of a plutocracy in Bangzi country forcing his father to abdicate to seize power; what tyrant prince chased and killed his cuckold bodyguard and lover...

   Reality is more terrible than fiction.

   The more money he has, the more ruthless he is against his relatives.

   There is no new story.

   Su Lun felt that he was talking nonsense enough and didn't speak any more.

   However, after such a long sentence, the good thing is that Rena really got acquainted, poked her finger, and honestly followed behind him.

   She felt that this man seemed to be able to guess everything.

   Calmly like a monster.

  ...

  As the two of them got deeper and deeper, the foul smell of the sewer became stronger and stronger.

   As he walked, Su Lun suddenly realized something, and looked back at Rena, who was blushing with a pretty face, and there was a sense of helplessness in his eyes.

   I just thought about other things, and forgot that this girl only wore a thin shirt, not even a gas mask.

   But it's probably because Reina was so embarrassed that she didn't even ask for it just now.

  Su Lun shook his head slightly, then took out the clothes, muskets, daggers and bullets from the storage ring.

"The bullet avoidance vests in the outer city are backward in technology and very heavy. What you wear will greatly affect your agility. It's up to you to choose. If you don't wear the bullet avoidance vests, there is no chance of fault tolerance, and you must remain vigilant throughout the entire process. The inside is very dangerous, and a little carelessness can be a fatal crisis. But if you wear it, if you encounter danger, you will not be able to escape..."

Lena took over the heavy body armor, which was dozens of times heavier than the academy combat uniform. She was about to put it on, but she heard Su Lun’s analysis again. She thought of something, and then replied weakly. Said: "I...I still don't wear it."

Su Lun put away her bullet-proof vest, and then pointed to the musket she hung around her waist, and reminded: "Try the feel of the musket first, but don't shoot. The firearms in the outer city are not as sophisticated as your academy. It will be very big, in case you encounter a situation, you have to be mentally prepared. The other is a rune musket, which Charlie gave me before. I should take advantage of it. But there are limited alchemy bullets. Please don’t shoot at will if you don’t need it. .."

"Oh."

   Lena felt that she knew everything, but in front of this man, she seemed to understand nothing.

   She is like a puppet at the mercy of others. Whatever Su Lun said to do, she could only say "OK", and there was no room for rejection.

   Before the man spoke, he had considered everything.

   The clothes are from Su Lun's men's clothing. Lena wore a very large dress. In the end, she only wore the thin shirt. She didn't even wear the pants, showing her white thighs. Fortunately, the darkness concealed the cramps on her pretty face, and Su Lun didn't mean to look at it any more, which didn't make her feel ashamed and embarrassed.

   There are also shoes that don't fit, so I leave my feet bare. However, Catwoman has the ability to strengthen the muscle tissue of the soles of the feet, and it is nothing to go barefoot, just stepping in the wet sewer, a little disgusting.

After dispatching the equipment, Su Lun spoke again at this time and announced: "Well, from now on, you and me will keep a safe enough distance. Don't talk to me, don't make any movement at will...Keep absolutely quiet. "

"what?"

   Lena was puzzled when she heard it.

Su Lun did not hide it, and explained directly: "From now on, you are the bait. I will see if I can save you again based on the strength of the enemy that may appear. Don't look at it with that kind of eyes. Me. You and me, the enemy will only choose to kill both of us at once. I'm just an unremarkable gangster, and you can live only if I survive..."

   Su Lun didn't say a word, in case the enemy is overwhelming, he will abandon the "bait" without hesitation.

   After a pause, he said again: "Of course, the ideal situation is that those enemies think you were killed by the distortion monster and no one is chasing you."

  "..."

   Lena was stunned after listening, her pretty face was full of unclear and fierce.

   Yes, there are killers~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It sounds like what he said...makes sense?

   is reasonable, but she always feels strange to her.

  A gentleman of the upper class, even in the face of death, will he save the life of his female partner first?

   How could Mr. Sulun let me be a bait?

  Although she has never experienced such an emergency, Rena still feels that the way the plot unfolds is not right.

   She wanted to ask, but she didn't know what she could say, the reason was all said by him.

  Su Lun felt the wronged Baba peeking behind him, and didn't mean to look back at all. He even moved away quickly, and said as he walked, "I'm just an ordinary guide... risking to save you, it's better to look at Sister Qian Tiao as your aunt."

   If you don't take credit for yourself, you will have less trouble.

   By the way, I will sell my affection to the thousands of big guys, and I can talk later.

   And Su Lun’s actions were not pretending to be cold, but the most sensible choice.

  Because he knows human nature very well.

Faced with this kind of arrogant noble lady, you treat her well, and she thinks it should be, because she is treated like this in her daily life; but when she finds that your goodness comes at a price, then she will really take it seriously .

   Bait is more valuable than towing oil bottles.

   To be a good bait, you must have the consciousness to be a bait.

   In short, licking the dog has nothing, and equivalent exchange is the eternal truth.

   If you want to be saved, you have to pay a price.

   Not to mention that although the words are ruthless, this is the way that Su Lun can think of, the best possible way to save this Rena's life.

   He knows very well that it is not easy for a killer who dares to attack this young lady.
