The warriors had already drawn out their long swords, their faces stern.
The bald man had trembling legs and his face was pale.
The white head tentatively said: "All, all... that Neos told us to do it..."
"Yes, yes, everything that has nothing to do with us..."
"We don't know anything..."
But the encirclement is getting smaller and smaller.
Cold sweat slipped from the fat man's forehead, and his back was completely wet.
He shuddered as he recalled Neos smiling before he was caught.
(and there are)
Chapter 69 Chapter 69 The so-called scheming
There have been a lot of beggars on the street in the past few days, most of them are ordinary people who are really desperate, don't want to commit crimes and break the law, and sell themselves as slaves.
In the cold early winter, dressed in rags, barefoot and shirtless, kneeling in the muddy ground, bowing his head and holding hands, hoping that kind people passing by would give some money or food.
But on this day, they were still begging along the street, but they saw something they had never seen before.
First, a strangely dressed silver-haired man was grabbed, shouting "I want to see the queen".
Then, the group of nobles in normal times were kicked out of the mansion in groups.
One by one crowded, fell, cursed, screamed...
The samurai with red armbands behind them pushed them out mercilessly, like driving livestock.
The weather-scarred skin of the nobles, their rich robes stained with mud and stains, their hair and beard dripping with filthy water.
Occasionally, those who dared to shout were beaten and kicked.
"it is good!"
"Good job!"
Among the beggars watching, someone shouted.
Then there was excitement and cheers, everyone smiled and forgot the pain for a while.
The warriors also felt the temporary enrichment and vanity in the cheers, so they increased their strength.
It was as if these rich people were the biggest villains in the world!
More and more people applauded, and the scene became more and more lively.
But behind the bustle, there were few people. Neos struggled and was taken into the hut by Turner.
The hut was dark and cramped, with hay bales on the floor.
As soon as the two entered the room, a black shadow flashed on the beam!
boom!
The huge force hit Turner's chest directly, and the strong man weighing more than [-] kg had to let go in pain, and the whole person was knocked back.
Immediately afterwards, a black shadow inserted between the two, as if trying to block Neos.
In the dark, the cold light is extinguished, and the shadow after landing starts again!
Turner gritted his teeth, drew his sword subconsciously, and swung the sword sideways at the moment the attack came.
Ding!
Sparks splashed out, and the confrontation was completed in an instant!
"Enough!" Neos shouted in a low voice.
The black shadow hesitated for a moment, stopped his body, and retreated to Neos, blocking him behind him.
Turner rubbed his chest, looked at the two, and lowered his head to admit his mistake: "Sorry, Lord Neos, I didn't mean to..."
Neos' acting skills are so strong that Fei and Turner thought he was really angry.
"No problem."
Nios shook his head, walked to the window, watched the crowds gathering on the street, and asked excitedly, "Who were the first to betray me just now, remember?"
"Remember." Fei nodded.With eagle eyes, she is extremely handy at marking enemies.
"Very good. After today's interrogation, those who support me will be cut down to make an example to others; those who want to join the Queen will be kept and locked up separately!" Neos nodded.
Turner hesitated for a moment: "My lord, why don't we just cut all the money, anyway, their money will be ours after the cut."
"Don't underestimate the influence of a nobleman or merchant, Turner."
Nios pursed his lips and said, "We may be able to kill him, but his family, relatives and friends far away will definitely seek revenge from us."
"Afraid of what?" Turner asked.
"The fewer enemies the better, the more friends the better."
Nios smiled: "If we kill him, he will hate us, but if we spare their lives, they will thank us instead."
"Let them die?" Turner was shocked and couldn't believe his ears.
Fei snorted softly, expressing dissatisfaction.
She won't be giving the Nyos "why" from a long time ago.
As far as she is concerned, adults can do what they say, even if it means harming her.
"Yes, because next I will need a group of people who can read and understand the law to form an organization similar to yours." Neos nodded.
"Oh, got it." Turner got it.
This is still useful to them, treat them like dogs.
wait, if they are dogs, then what are we...
Huh?
Turner scratched his head.
"So the next step is to differentiate them little by little!"
Neos looked out of the window, and slashed down with the knife out of thin air: "That's why, I want to act first, force them to stand in line, and see if they will continue to support me as a sinner, or switch to the queen, and confess my crime obediently!"
"But these merchants seem to have formed their own forces in the city, so no matter what, they are all ruined..." Turner rubbed his chin with a puzzled expression.
"That's why the grown-ups should detain them separately." Fei interjected.
Neos smiled without saying a word.
Turner froze for a moment, then reacted instantly, and turned his head to look at Neos.
Fuck!This man is a monster!
"Leave those who plead guilty alone, force them to betray their companions, force them to reveal their crimes, force them to tell the amount of property of other merchants!"
Turner muttered to himself, as if he had discovered a new world: "Even if someone chooses to believe in his companion at the beginning, he will immediately change his attitude and choose to betray his companion after learning the truth about his companion's betrayal!"
He could already imagine the scene where those businessmen frantically sold their teammates in order to survive.
But Nios raised his eyebrows at him, with an expression of "Is this shocking?"
The prisoner's dilemma is a basic operation.
"Am I wrong, my lord?" Turner noticed Neos' expression.
"Ah, no, it's quite complete, basically like this." Neos nodded perfunctorily.
Seeing him like this, Turner knew he was wrong.
Hurry up and ask for advice humbly.
It's no wonder that Her Majesty the Queen is increasingly inseparable from this lord, this feeling of being able to learn things anytime and anywhere is simply amazing!
Neos looked at him, and sighed helplessly: "Actually, I simply locked them up, not as much as you think."
"Eh?"
"Because the target of my extortion is not the merchant himself." Neos Yoyo said.
"what!"
Fei woke up from a daze, and subconsciously glanced at the lord: "Is this why the lord asked me to notify their family?"
Neos gave a "hmm" and nodded.
"Then what are you, my lord..." Turner's brain short-circuited.
He didn't expect that he had tried his best to think, but still stayed on the first floor.
Neos glanced at him: "I never thought of threatening the merchant himself, or letting the merchant reveal and betray each other, because that would be too straightforward."
"So I simply dragged their families into the water, so that the businessmen will not only think about their own life and death, but also think about the future of their wives and children."
Nios pouted his cheek lightly, his eyes were as black as ink: "And their wives also have to consider that if their husband loses power, their whole family will be ruined, and then they will desperately force the merchant to make a choice.
So what I'm really threatening is their family, like their wife, mother or father. "
"after all......"
Neos paused for a moment: "Compared to betraying friends myself, family members betray friends much more ruthlessly than myself."
There was a moment of silence in the hut, the crowd outside the hut dispersed, and the merchants had been escorted to their cells.
No one thought that when the city was arresting the first wealthy businessman and aristocrat, it would have already embarked on an unimaginable path.
Turner couldn't be calm for a long time.
He imagined the scene where the wives and mothers of the merchants frantically forced the merchants to make a choice for their husbands and children, and to save the whole family, and then frantically took the samurai to search the house next door.
The one who bites me hardest is always my own!
What's more, after everything is over, the businessmen can only blame their wives for being irrational and their former friends for betraying them, but instead forget the real mastermind behind the scenes.
