Siheyuan: Why is my crossing so ugly?
Chapter 1238 The strong enjoy the world, the weak accept reality
"Hello, Triss, Joseph, and Nightmare."
A moment later, in an empty alley not far from the Peninsula Hotel, Merlin bowed slightly and greeted gracefully.
"My name is Merlin, and this is Sukari, my wife. I've often heard Wesley mention you, and I'm glad to meet you."
Merlin spoke Chinese, and although his accent was inevitable, he was already very fluent. He had not been idle during this period.
Moreover, although there were still some blood stains on his face, his expression was extremely calm, his tone was neither hurried nor slow, and he had no anger at all, just like old friends chatting.
"Humph, just pretending. So, you two foreigners are the full-time nannies that Wesley assigned to her?"
Moran is not as good-tempered as him. He looks stern and speaks in a sarcastic and unpleasant way.
"Haha, Miss Triss, you are joking. She is not a baby and has the ability to take care of herself. We are just entrusted by Wesley to ensure her safety."
Merlin chuckled and replied seriously.
He has lived for so long that he has already mastered his cunning to perfection. He will not be angered by a few words and will still smile.
"Little girl, why did you suddenly come to Hong Kong Island? What are you trying to do? And did Megan come with you?"
Merlin is well-mannered, but his wife Sukari has a very bad temper and speaks harshly.
Moreover, her hands were still on the hilt of the scimitar behind her waist, and she stared at Joseph with a bad look, as if she was ready to start a fight if they had a disagreement.
But it is easy to understand. Just imagine that anyone who has been isolated from the world for hundreds of years will have his temper worn out.
Although Moran didn't know Sukari's background, nor did she know why she called her a little girl, she would never lose in an argument.
"Ha! Who do you think you are to interrogate me?" He immediately sneered and retorted:
"Old witch, which coffin did you just crawl out of? Go out and find out who owns Hong Kong Island."
"court death!"
Moran's words instantly angered Sukari, especially the word "coffin", which hit her sore spot.
Sukari immediately got furious and drew her sharp Damascus scimitar instantly.
"Sukali, don't be impulsive!"
Merlin quickly grabbed her wrist, stopping her from swinging the knife.
Then he turned to Moran and asked with a stronger tone:
"Triss, are you sure you want to do this? Do we have to fight to be satisfied?"
After all, Merlin was a ruthless man who had waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Just by releasing a little bit of his aura, a sense of oppression immediately came over them.
Joseph subconsciously took a half step back to create some distance, his eyes suddenly turned icy blue, while Nightmare took a step forward and stood in front of Moran, his eyes suddenly turned scarlet.
Although he was frightened by Merlin's fierce momentum, Moran would not show weakness:
"Humph! Merlin, who are you trying to scare? Besides, you were the ones who launched the sneak attack today!"
Sukari's eyes were fierce, and her gaze was always hovering around her throat. She scolded coldly:
"Nonsense! It was you who was planning to attack Clara, so we tried to stop you. If it wasn't for Wesley's consideration, that bullet would have exploded in your head!"
Clara is the English name that Yang Caiyu gave herself.
Just now, when Joseph used his mental power to scan the room where Yang Caiyu was and finally stopped on her.
This behavior was keenly sensed by Merlin and his wife, and without thinking, they issued a stern warning.
If Merlin hadn't identified their identities in time, the fight might have ended in death mode.
"Yes, I am going to touch her! But I don't want to kill her, or even hurt her. I just want to erase her recent memory."
Moran was a very single man and admitted it openly.
"Bah! Why should I believe it~~"
Sukari raised her eyebrows and spat. It seemed that she and Moran were born incompatible and they disliked each other.
"Why?" Merlin interrupted Sukari and asked in a deep voice.
"Why? How dare you ask? Why did she suddenly come to Hong Kong Island? Don't you really know?"
Upon hearing this question, Moran instantly got angry:
"Do you think I'd be willing to come? If it weren't for your poor handling of the matter, she would have come into contact with someone she shouldn't have!
Am I so full that I have nothing better to do? Why did I rush to Hong Kong Island and become a bad guy who is not popular with anyone?"
Moran finally found a way to vent his resentment, and he vented it out loud.
Facing the accusation, Merlin said nothing. Sukari's eyes also revealed a mixture of guilt and embarrassment, and she rarely refuted.
Sukari's mental abilities are also quite impressive. Although her methods are not as good as those of Miss Hu and Joseph, they are definitely more than enough to deal with ordinary people.
Merlin is mature and prudent in his work. Usually, Sukali would sit in the car with him and watch over Yang Caiyu from a distance.
Anyone who approaches her or takes the initiative to talk to her will be screened by Sukari.
But on the day she met Wen Wan, Sukali happened to run out to buy citrus jam ice cream, otherwise this kind of bad thing would not have happened.
England is a well-known food desert, and Scotland is a desert within a desert. Their eating habits are jokingly called "European Madness".
Sukari had been locked up for so long that she almost lost her sense of taste.
So, after regaining her freedom, she developed an almost obsessive desire for delicious food, and this orange jam ice cream is a rare delicacy in Edinburgh.
The key point is that this crappy thing is only sold 2 days a week, and it is limited in quantity. Be quick or you’ll miss it, so Sukari would slack off.
In the short time that she slipped out, about half an hour later, Yang Caiyu met Wen Wan, and they chatted with each other for more than ten minutes.
That’s right, it’s just a coincidence, it’s stored like this, I don’t know if it was planned in advance by someone.
"What? Are you out of things to say?"
Moran noticed all the subtle changes in Merlin and the others' expressions. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
"Merlin, I think you are a smart person. You should know what her sudden appearance in Hong Kong Island means to Du Weiguo."
"Now, erasing her recent memory and returning everything to its original track is the best solution, so please stop making trouble."
Upon hearing this, Merlin's eyes flickered, and he was obviously interested.
He has lived for so long that he is naturally very insightful and well aware of the current situation, not to mention the impact that Yang Caiyu will have on Du Weiguo.
At the moment, Moran is determined to win. If they continue to stop him, the evil spirits will begin to split and even a civil war may break out.
The solution proposed by Moran is indeed the most ideal solution.
Nothing will be lost and no one will be hurt, except Yang Caiyu, but she will only lose a not-so-good memory.
But before he could express his opinion, Sukari couldn't help but stand up again and rejected it without hesitation:
"No! Clara's brain has been severely traumatized and she can't stand being hurt again."
Sukari is a person with a hard mouth but a soft heart, she is the legendary person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
Although she often spoke coldly to Yang Caiyu when they were together, she actually regarded her as a friend in her heart.
After spending a long time together, Sukali also learned about Yang Caiyu's experience. She had carefully explored her brain more than once and had a general idea of her situation.
"Humph! Then you're not capable enough! I'm sure she won't become stupid, let alone a vegetable!"
Moran snorted coldly and responded sharply.
Of course, she knew about Yang Caiyu's experience of becoming a vegetable, and when conditions allowed, she also conducted a special investigation to understand the cause and effect of the matter.
In addition, she was also very clear about the scale of doing this. If she erased Yang Caiyu's short-term memory, Du Weiguo would blame her or even hate her.
But if she went too far, she might really turn Yang Caiyu into a vegetable, or even worse, kill her.
Then Du Weiguo will no longer talk to her about the love between husband and wife for a day and a hundred days of grace, and he will definitely turn against her!
Therefore, she decided to implement it only after repeatedly confirming with Joseph.
Joseph is gifted. His mental power, breadth and intensity may not be as good as Miss Hu's, but his accuracy is unmatched.
As Moran's strongest trump card, she invested a lot in training Joseph, almost at all costs.
Just for the skill of erasing and tampering with memories, she found thousands of criminals from prison to experiment on Joseph, which was really a lot of training.
Sukari was about to retort when Merlin stopped her. He stared at Moran without blinking, with a serious expression and asked solemnly:
"Ms. Triss, are you sure that erasing only Clara's short-term memory won't harm her brain or her other memories?"
Moran nodded and said firmly:
"Of course! I'm 100% sure. Otherwise, if I really hurt her, you don't have to bother me. Wesley won't let me go."
Although he is just an ordinary person, Moran's psychological quality can be ranked among the top even among all the evil spirits, at least not inferior to Merlin, the "old monster".
"Merlin, you're crazy!"
Merlin was about to speak when Sukari pulled him back. She was very excited and subconsciously growled in ancient Aztec:
"This is unfair to Clara. Even if this woman is telling the truth and it won't hurt her, she is not our toy. Who are we to decide her memory?"
Merlin also replied in Aztec:
"Sukali, you should understand that this world has never been fair. Only the strong are qualified to enjoy the world, while the weak can only accept reality.
Clara is a weak person, but her current memory will affect the interests of many powerful people and even trigger a war. How do you think we should choose? "
His voice was very calm, but underneath this calmness was hidden a deep helplessness. Sukari was also stunned.
It turns out that Merlin thought he was a strong man and was even worshipped as a god, but after being repeatedly beaten by reality, he woke up.
In front of a force as huge as a monster, he is nothing, otherwise, Sukari would not have been trapped for hundreds of years with no news.
Power, influence, force, money, resources, intelligence, interests, and ties, these things are indispensable.
Therefore, after escaping from Cave Island, he took Sukari and joined Du Weiguo without hesitation.
After a long pause, Sukari finally spoke: "Well, then we should let her know the truth and let her decide for herself!"
When she said this, she switched back to Chinese, and her tone was obviously weak, with a hint of negotiation.
"Haha~ Why?"
Moran sneered, and without waiting for Sukari to answer, she continued:
"I think you consider her a friend, right? If she's your friend, why would you let her go through pain?"
Moran's tone was not as sharp anymore, although he didn't know what Merlin and the others had just muttered in a language they couldn't understand.
But through the context of the moment, the relationship between the previous and next sentences, and the changes in Sukari's tone, Moran still roughly guessed their current mental state.
Seeing that there was an opportunity to resolve the matter peacefully, Moran didn't want to fight at all if he could avoid it.
Just now, before entering this secluded alley, Joseph and Nightmare had both warned her that the danger level was increased.
"These two people should be very good at close combat, boss lady. Fighting in this environment, our current winning rate is less than 5%!" These were Joseph's exact words.
In fact, his estimate was still biased. If it really was a life-and-death fight, he and Nightmare should be able to win in the end, but it would be a pyrrhic victory.
Moran will definitely die, Joseph will also die, and of course, Merlin and his wife will not survive. The only one left in the end should be Nightmare, but he will definitely be seriously injured.
All four of them have psychic power, Joseph is the best, and Nightmare is the strongest, but Joseph will definitely be the first to die because he is a fragile one.
The remaining Nightmare, Merlin, and Sukari all have self-healing abilities, but the Nightmare's attack methods are more bizarre and covert, and it also has a terrifying second form.
The Nightmare's weaknesses are water and fire, but there are neither of those nearby in this alley, and Merlin and the others don't have the corresponding abilities.
So after a battle of consumption, there is a high probability that Night Stalker will kill the Immortal couple at the cost of serious injuries.
There are three of them and a dog, but they are the strongest fighting force under Du Weiguo except for Miss Hu, and they are all ranked among the top few.
If the entire army is wiped out at one stop, Du Weiguo will definitely be seriously injured, not to mention that Moran will have to be involved as well. Pattaya's good situation will be ruined.
Fortunately, a tragic internal conflict did not occur, and both sides tried their best to restrain themselves.
Moran's question made Sukari stunned again. It took her half a minute before she spoke:
"But, isn't it too cruel for us to erase her memory without her knowing it?"
Seeing that Sukari had already loosened up, Moran quickly struck while the iron was hot:
"It's a bit cruel, but the truth is even crueler. If necessary, Joseph can even help her forge a memory."
"Hmph, your name is Triss, right? I hate you so much, don't let me meet you alone again!"
After another long silence, Sukari suddenly said something harsh and turned away.
Merlin sighed, looked at Moran intently, and said softly:
"Triss, please act quickly. Sukari is a bit fickle and may change her mind easily. Besides, I don't want to see you again."
"Haha, that's great. Goodbye, never see you again." Moran shrugged indifferently.
A moment later, on the top floor of the Peninsula Hotel, Suite 702.
Yang Caiyu was sitting at her desk, gently stroking a photo. It was a photo of her and Zhao Yingnan taken at Yan University in their early years.
"Yingnan, are you really still alive? And you've become the behind-the-scenes boss of Hong Kong's No. 1 business consortium? Du Weiguo's woman?"
She murmured softly, but her tone became heavier and her eyes became colder.
"Ding-ling-ling~" The phone on the table suddenly rang.
Yang Caiyu had just picked up the microphone when an anxious and familiar voice came from inside:
"Caiyu, run, leave Hong Kong Island immediately!"
"Yingnan! Yingnan, is it really you?" Yang Caiyu's eyes widened instantly and her voice trembled.
Zhao Yingnan paused for a moment, her voice was obviously choked, but she still shouted anxiously:
"Caiyu, it's me, but there's no time to explain now. Someone wants to deal with you. Leave the Peninsula Hotel first and go to Baishawan Pier! I'll find a way to send you away!"
"Who? Who wants to deal with me? Yingnan, tell me, you~~"
At this moment, Yang Caiyu's voice stopped abruptly, her expression froze, her eyes suddenly became dull, and the microphone in her hand fell heavily on the table.
"Hey! Hey! Caiyu, hey, are you okay? Fuck! Molan, I'm going to kill you!"
In the microphone, Zhao Yingnan shouted heartbreakingly.
Downstairs in the hotel, in the car, Joseph's pupils slowly returned to normal. He pinched his temples and said tiredly:
"Madam boss, it's done."
"Whoo~"
After exhaling a long puff of smoke, Moran threw the cigarette butt out of the window and asked calmly:
"Well, Joseph, is she all right?"
"Yeah, it's okay. I'll just be unconscious for a few days."
"What about her memory?" Moran seemed calm, but her voice was trembling slightly.
Joseph didn't seem to be too relaxed, his face was a little pale, and he took a breath before speaking, but his tone was as calm as ever:
"It was a week ago, before she met the woman named Wen Wan. She was running and fell because she was distracted. The back of her head hit a rock and she was unconscious for a few days."
"Joseph, are you sure?"
Upon hearing this, Moran could no longer hold back and his whole body was shaking with excitement.
If Yang Caiyu's memory is really as Joseph said, then this result is simply perfect. Not to mention Merlin and Sukari, even Du Weiguo can accept it.
Not only will I not hate her, I'm afraid I should even thank her.
"Sure. I put a lot of effort into it and did it very carefully. There must be no omissions." Joseph said with a firm tone, full of confidence.
"Great! Joseph, great job! You helped your husband a lot, I will give you a raise when you get home, 20 a month!"
Moran pounded his thigh excitedly, then ruffled Joseph's hair hard.
"Hehe~"
When he heard about the salary increase, Joseph grinned. He was good in every way except that he was a little greedy for money. He used to be poor and wandered the streets.
"Madam, are we going back to Siam now?"
Moran's smile suddenly froze and he shook his head:
"No, we will go find Zhao Yingnan right away. Joseph, her memory also needs to be changed. Let her stay at three days ago."
At this point, she raised her eyes and looked at Nightmare who was staring at her with burning eyes, and said in a teasing tone:
"By doing this, we can also eliminate hidden dangers for your master, Nightmare. You should have no objection, right?"
"Tsk~" Night Devil snorted in a very human way and turned his head away. (End of this chapter)
