Chapter 034: Scheming (Seeking Collection)
In the canopy of the old tree, when he heard Emily's words, Alan knew that he had guessed correctly. It was the seemingly innocent and kind girl in front of her who poisoned Lucy, and among the things that Eren hated, betrayal was on the list. Although the teenagers who participated in the death ring, everyone was their own mortal enemy. But at least until the alliance is dissolved, everyone is an ally.
As allies, they should have helped each other. But Emily didn't plan to do that, and was going to kill Lucy in the first place. However, Alan was not too surprised, in this environment of life and death, human nature or trust was not put in the first place that needed to be measured. But Allen's killing intent towards the girl was even stronger, of course, it had to be Emily able to leave alive in the hands of the two teenagers at the moment.
"You said Lucy was poisoned?" Raffi shook his head and laughed as if he had heard something funny: "Emily, if you want to make up a lie, at least make up one with a high degree of credibility." Where did you get the chance to poison Lucy before the game started; And after the game starts, the distance between you and her is too far away, and there is still no convergence, let alone a chance to poison. So you see, your lie is really full of mistakes. ”
Emily disagreed, saying, "You're wrong, Lucy was poisoned before the game started." ”
"Impossible!" Raffi said categorically: "Even if you have a good relationship with Lucy, you don't have this kind of opportunity!" ”
"Of course, Lucy is not stupid, so naturally she will not give me a chance to poison. But what if something goes wrong with someone she trusts? For example, her mentor Aisha? Emily said softly.
"It's even more ridiculous." Kanon on the side pointed to his head and said, "Emily, are you belittling our intelligence?" If Aisha had poisoned Lucy and the committee found out, she wouldn't have had a good time. I don't know, what kind of benefits do you have to get Aisha to do this? ”
"I haven't finished speaking, Aisha gave Lucy the poison, but what if Aisha didn't know that it was poison? In fact, in the end, ISA is just a medium, a tool. Emily said in a flat tone, "My mentor, Mr. Hanny, is Aisha's lover, and I asked him to secretly replace the potion that was supposed to be used for Lucy with another one while visiting Aisha." ”
"Oh, so Mr. Hanny is still doing what you say?" Raffi said with a slight mockery.
"Of course it's not that simple, but Mr. Hanny loves to hear the sound of me beneath him. I made him happy, plus a few other benefits, so he didn't mind doing me such a small favor. ”
Raffi and Canon looked at each other, they didn't think it would be so complicated like Alan in the canopy, and it was clear that Emisha was a scheming girl.
"Alright, Emily, we believe you." Raffi spun the javelin, "But don't you think it's a good choice to kill you and Lucy together." ”
"No, you'll have less fun then." Emily stretched out her left hand and spread it out, revealing a rectangular metal locket inside: "This is Lucy's antidote, this thing can threaten her." If she wants to live, she will grant you anything. Any! ”
Emily emphasized, and said, "As long as you let me go, it's yours." ”
Both Rafi and Canon's Adam's apple rolled up and down for a while, and it was clear that it was much more fun to let her fulfill any of her demands than to kill Lucy. Especially thinking of Lucy's tight and slender leg line, the breathing of the two teenagers became heavy.
"Deal, put that thing down, and go as far as you want. Pray, Emily, pray that we don't bump into each other again. Rafi and Canon exchanged glances, and they both saw each other's hearts. So Raffi stepped forward and said, "Also, leave Lucy's coordinates." ”
"I don't know the exact coordinates, but as long as you follow this direction, you will definitely find her." Emily gestured in the direction of the west, then tossed the box containing the antidote to the ground. She stepped back step by step, and when she took a dozen steps, she immediately turned around and ran.
The figure moved, and suddenly the air behind him broke and shouted. Emily screamed, and the dagger she had been hiding in her hand swept behind her.
There was a clang, and the dagger swept into something. She looked intently at Rafite's javelin. But although she flicked off the shot thrown at the back, it deflected the javelin's center of gravity and fell to the ground. Emily has good scheming, but her physical strength and strength are too poor. As soon as she fell, blood suddenly burst into her calf, and a rough gunfire rang out almost simultaneously.
The gunfire came from a rugged revolver in Canon's hand, the muzzle caliber of which was much larger than a normal revolver, and the bullet fired directly cut a bloody hole in Emily's calf, breaking one of her legs!
"You don't keep your promises!" Emily's face was pale and her breath was short.
Raffi walked over and slowly picked up one of the javelins that was stuck on the ground. Coming to Emily's side again, he picked her chin with the tip of his gun and said, "What's the promise?" Can you eat it? ”
Emily also laughed: "I knew that you bastards would not keep their word, and I was not afraid to sue you, and the antidote was also fake!" ”
Rafi's face changed, and she slapped Emily on the spot: "Slut, hand over the antidote." ”
"Do you think I'm a fool? After handing it over, let you kill it? Emily smirked.
The smile suddenly turned to pain. Rafi stabbed her in the palm of her right hand and pinned her to the ground. Then he reached out and touched her, and Rafi said, "Don't be complacent, won't I find it myself?" ”
"Do you think I'm going to hide it? Idiot! Emily spat bloody phlegm at him.
Sure enough, Raffi moved her hands up and down and touched the girl's whole body, even some private places. But he couldn't find anything suspicious, and looked at Emily with a smug look on his face, and Kanon next to him raised his gun to her forehead. Rafi reached out and pressed the muzzle of the gun, and said coldly: "Emily, you shouldn't provoke us. You want to die, it's too easy. But I'm going to make your life worse than death. ”
After saying that, he used the tip of the gun to pick off the tendons of the girl's hands and feet, and Emily's eyes widened: "What are you going to do?" ”
"Leave you here, Emily." Rafi patted her on the cheek and said, "You have to thank us for our kindness, I will not kill you." But you can't go anywhere, you can only watch yourself die slowly, or be swallowed by some dangerous species. ”
"No, you can't do that!" Emily screamed, death was a blessing compared to the torture.
Neither Rahfi nor Canon paid any attention to her, and the two teenagers packed up their things and walked over to Emily to point out the west side of the forest. It was only after they had gone far that Alan came down from the tree and walked over to Emily's side.
Emily was taken aback when she saw Alan, and then her expression became extremely calm: "You heard it all?" ”
Alan didn't say anything, just nodded.
"Help me, I'll give you the real antidote. I'll hide it in a tree hole not far away, you take me, and I'll give you the antidote. Emily pleaded like a drowning man grasping the best straw.
Alan squatted down and said, "Sue me for the position, I'll go get it myself." ”
He stared into the girl's eyes, Emily's expression changed, and finally said with a wry smile, "Okay, I lied to you." ”
Alan nodded, stood up and turned to leave. Emily yelled from behind, "Wait, don't you want to kill me!" ”
"Yes, but I think those two guys have better ideas." Alan said truthfully.
"No, no, no, I don't want to die like this. Alan, you're trying to save Lucy, right? I give you the real antidote, please kill me. Emily cried out in despair, knowing full well that Eren would not let her go. In this way, death is the ultimate liberation.
"You think I'm going to be fooled?" Alan frowned.
"This time it's real. The antidote is in my dagger, and the grip is movable! Emily exclaimed.
Alan's eyes swept and his gaze fell on the dagger next to the girl. He walked over and picked up the dagger to check. Sure enough, the grip of the dagger was movable, and there was a vacuum inside. A glass tube containing blue liquid slipped out of the grip, and the smooth surface of the glass tube reflected the girl's face. Emily said, "Look, I didn't lie to you. Well, give me a good time, please. ”
Putting away the antidote, Alan squatted down and reached out to gently hold the girl's neck. He shook his head and said, "You shouldn't have done that." ”
Emily smiled slightly, "You won't understand, Alan. Hopefully you'll survive to the end, but you'll find that maybe dying in the first place is a good ending. ”
The voice stopped abruptly, and as she spat out the last word, Eren pinched her neck. The smile on the girl's face froze, maybe she was right. In this brutal battlefield, being alive is not necessarily happier than dying.
Only by living can there be hope.
Alan will not give up hope, he will not only live, but also be a victor. As for how to untie the knot between him and Lucy, he didn't want to think about it for the time being. Lucy was the first friend he was willing to make, and it was this girl who made him see a ray of sunshine. If he could, he hoped that this ray of sunshine would shine forever. But now, he will not forget those bloody memories.
Bai Fang's eyes and his mother's ring reminded him what to do all the time. If he had to make a choice, Alan knew what he would do.
Thankfully, it's not the time to choose. Alan was suddenly a little grateful to Raffi and Canon, because because of them, Alan didn't have to think about this headache for the time being. The two teenagers are naturally on his clear list, which is still a long one. At least, Alan still has a lot to do before the name Lucy is left.
But even he couldn't deny that he couldn't think of a way to make Lucy disappear from the list.
It's like a dead knot that can't be untied.
