Chapter 600: There's Your Call
"I still don't understand," Rodney's voice was filled with confusion and frustration. (8) Ω (1) 8⒈
"Uh, well, I'll explain it to you like this," I organized my words, "You're now identified as the murderer of the city lord, uh, the murderer of your father......"
"I didn't murder my father!" Rodney argued.
"Oh, I know, I believe in you, but this doesn't mean that the people of Ari City believe in you, I think they are more willing to believe in your second brother with the combat power of Achilles than in believing in your innocence."
"But ......"
I interrupted him and said, "You calm down first, there will always be a solution to everything." ”
The other end of the microphone sighed, and he said quietly, "What else can be done?" I've been locked up, and I've even been accused of being the mastermind behind my father's murder, ......."
"But your father isn't dead, is he?" I asked.
"Like...... Yes. ”
"Since we are not dead, it means that we still have a chance."
"What chance?" He asked urgently.
"A chance for you to take off the black cauldron of murdering your father, no, to be exact, murdering the city lord."
"Are you, serious?" His tone was full of surprise and disbelief.
"Of course," I said, "as long as you are alive, there will always be a day when you can wake up, and as long as you can wake up, the truth will be clear, what do you say?" ”
"I see, I see!" He wept with joy.
"Hey, a big man, don't cry all the time, okay" I felt that his sobbing voice was disgusting.
"I'm sorry," he snorted, "I'm just, so happy." ”
Khan, you cry when you're happy...... But I can understand his current mood, inexplicably wronged, I thought there was no hope, suddenly heard me tell him that there was hope again, so the spirit that was about to collapse rose again, all this can only show that when I called one thing, he was almost on the verge of collapse.
Just when I was thinking nonsense, his voice came out of the microphone again, a little more energetic, but a little more anxious: "However, my father is still in the City Lord's Mansion, maybe he is still being watched by those murderers, in case something happens to him...... But what can I do? ”
"You don't have to worry about this," I said: "You are the only one among the three brothers who has no power, this is almost known to the owners of Eri City, and now that you are in prison, the eldest young master and the second young master will definitely not do anything with your father for a period of time." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"If something happens to your father while you are in prison, can you be considered innocent?"
"Ah...... Yes, you're right, if they attack my father, I'll be indirectly cleared of suspicion" His voice was very festive, I was really speechless to hear, how tense is the relationship between your father and son, so that there will be a tragic atmosphere of father being murdered and son stealing joy.
However, this is their family matter, and I have no right to interfere.
"But," Rodney again wondered on the other end of the microphone, "Will they say that my remnants did it?" ”
"Yo, Master Rodney is finally willing to use his brain to think about things," I teased him.
"Get down to business!"
"You don't want to think about it, you're in prison, what reason do you have to murder your father, the lord of Ari City?"
On the other end of the microphone, Rodney suddenly fell silent, not knowing whether to walk away or if the call crystal was hung up.
I shook the call crystal at the staff, she looked at the call status and waved her hand at me: there is nothing abnormal.
It seemed that Rodney had left or was silent, so I chose to wait.
It took a while for Rodney to exclaim, "Ah! ”
"Hello? What happened to you? I asked, not knowing what was wrong with him.
"Really, I didn't think of what you said!" Rodney's voice contained a rebuke for himself and a compliment for me.
Hearing what he said, I finally understood why this thing was silent just now, and he had been in a state of shock just now.
At this moment, I refreshed my understanding of this product.
Finally, I exchanged a few words with him and told him to eat well, sleep well, and jerk off well, but as a result, I was scolded by this ungrateful cargo and fucked off.
But if you think about it carefully, his anger is understandable, after all, there are many patrolling adventurers in the confinement room, and it is always difficult to jerk off in front of them, after all, it will damage the image of the royal family.
After hanging up the call, I asked the staff to contact Taylor again and gave me the address of my home.
While the staff was busy helping me connect the call, I kept thinking about a question, why are the call crystals in Moonlight City only used by ordinary people, while the call crystals in Eri City are only allowed to be used by high-level and high-status people?
After thinking about it, I can only come to this conclusion: the Terrans are too powerful!
At this time, the call crystal was connected, and on the other end, Taylor's slightly drunk voice sounded: "Hey, is it a bastard?" ”
"I said, old man, what are you trying to do when you start drinking early in the morning?"
"Oh, I didn't drink," Taylor said calmly.
"You didn't drink, so why did you talk and your voice changed," I added, "Getting drunk?" ”
"Oh," Taylor replied, "I didn't drink, I drank water that smelled of alcohol." ”
"Is that still wine?" I growled.
He meowed, so angry that my liver hurt.
"Uh" Taylor hiccuped, "Bastard, do you have anything to do with me?" ”
"I can't look for you if it's okay?" I asked rhetorically.
"That's it, don't look for me if it's okay," Taylor said dissatisfied, "delay me drinking." ”
Uh, I said it myself.
"By the way, old man, let me ask you, how is Eri City doing?"
Taylor's voice was very indifferent: "What else can I do, it's all messed up now, people from other races have left here in airships, but there are a lot of vacant houses, but I can no longer drink the wine of the dwarf clan, and I can't eat the steak of the beast clan, by the way, Xiao Yi, and the café you often go to is temporarily closed!" ”
"Oh, I know this," I said, "the proprietress of the café is here with me, preparing to open one in Moonlight City." ”
"Oh, that's really good, tell me when it's about to open, I'll rush over with a little squeak" He smiled obscenely: "Opening ceremony, you must have a good drink." ”
Sighing, I said helplessly: "Okay, it's up to you, I'll definitely inform you when the time comes, by the way, how is Xiao Qi now?" ”
"It's not bad, just finished shedding the shell, and now the carapace is hard, and it is estimated that the lower grade stainless steel can't be cut."
"That's good," I imagined what Xiao Squeak would look like after shedding her shell, "you guys pay more attention to safety, and if you really feel the crisis, hurry up and take an airship." ”
"Okay, okay, I see" Taylor said impatiently, "By the way, I've used up the money you gave, take some of your private money......"
"Take it, take it" I was full of black lines, and said helplessly: "It doesn't matter if it's all spent, it's a big deal to make more money." ”
"Hehe, bastard, when did you become so enlightened" Taylor laughed lewdly twice, and said, "Okay, I'm welcome." ”
As he spoke, he hung up the call.
I was really speechless, and just as I was handing back the crystal, another staff member came over: "Are you Mr. An Xiaoyi?" ”
"I am."
"There's your call."
