"Sure enough, you know something about the Goblin Labyrinth. Why didn't you tell us then?"
"At that time, you didn't reveal that you were from the Red Blood Rose.
I asked you if you were members of the Red Blood Rose, but you denied it outright.
If you had told me at that time that you were the Red Blood Rose, I might have told you everything I knew.
However, thanks to your desire to hide your identity, I have the bargaining chip to negotiate with you."
The light reflected by the lenses of the glasses in the sun seemed to see through everything. There was no change in the expression on Wanjing Zhihua's face, but he couldn't help but look at Yang Yu with admiration in his heart.
Even when he was surrounded by us, he remained calm and composed. We couldn't find any flaws in him.
This man is more complicated than I thought. It is necessary to test him again to find out his true background.
With a determined attitude, Wan Jing Zhihua spoke in an aggressive tone.
"Kid, do you think you have a choice about who you are talking to now?"
In this tense atmosphere, Yang Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Of course I know who I'm talking to, everyone from the Red Rose. It would be easy for you to kill us.
But don't forget, if you hand me over to the Chaoyang Chamber of Commerce, it will also be a dead end.
Since it's a dead end, I might as well make a deal with you and explain all the ins and outs to you. Then there might be a glimmer of hope.
So, Captain Gordon, would you like to hear my story, understand the ins and outs of this matter, and make a deal with me?"
Yang Yu spoke every word lightly, but Bai Jin knew that in fact every word Yang Yu said was walking on thin ice. If there was even the slightest mistake, their adventure would end here.
Holding the staff tightly in his hand, Bai Jin felt sad about his own powerlessness again.
Before walking out of the alley, Yang Yu had already told her that even if he died in front of her, she must not show even the slightest hostility. Only in this way could they overcome this difficulty and survive.
That's not a joke, Yang Yu must be talking to them with the determination to die.
He knew that Iyas was becoming increasingly paranoid, and should have attacked her with ice magic when he found her sneaking into town despite Yang Yu's orders.
Even if it means breaking one of her legs, we should get her out of town.
This way, things wouldn't have come to this.
The skill scroll in her hand was slightly wrinkled. Bai Jin felt guilty and lowered her head, not daring to look at Gordon's face, fearing that Yang Yu would be rejected and there would be no way to ensure their safety.
After listening to Yang Yu's words, Gordon smiled, which was rare for him. He motioned for Sister Jing to put down the magic in her hand, took a few steps towards Yang Yu, and said:
“Just let me hear your story and why you are wanted.
In exchange, you must tell me everything you know about the Goblin Maze.
If you dare to hide anything this time, you should know the consequences. "
A tremendous amount of magic power burst out from Gordon's body. Yang Yu just smiled indifferently, as if he was chatting with an old friend, and told him everything about his infiltration into the Yinlan Chamber of Commerce to conduct an investigation.
“I helped the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce to take advantage of the Silver Orchid Chamber of Commerce, which indirectly led to the Silver Orchid Chamber of Commerce fleeing to this country. Naturally, they hate me to the core and wish to skin me alive.
They thought I would travel thousands of miles to Setis to sell the stolen goods, so they teamed up with the Chaoyang Chamber of Commerce.
In a sense, they were right.
But I have never regretted it. I treated people as if they were not human beings, conducted dark biochemical research, and indirectly destroyed that huge chamber of commerce. I don’t think I did anything wrong.”
"Where's the evidence?"
"I recently came to Thertis from the Library of Everything.
You are here, so you must not have heard that Chaoyang Chamber of Commerce suddenly fell out with someone.
Think about it, they came here for no reason and targeted a person with no background.
You can also go to the Republic of Terun to check out my story. I was a rookie at that time and used my real name and real photo.
The incident between the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce and the Silver Orchid Chamber of Commerce has caused such a big stir that people who are interested in doing good should make a big fuss about it and get to the bottom of it.
Just ask around and you’ll know whether what I say is true or not.”
"Don't listen to him, Gordon. He's just trying to delay time."
Granny Pomegranate was anxious. She had finally caught a chance for her grandson to rise to prominence, and she would not let Yang Yu go.
Facing the sudden and groundless questioning, Yang Yu ignored it, took out a bottle of resurrection medicine from the system and threw it to Gordon.
"Since mother-in-law said so, as long as [Red Blood Rose] is willing to guarantee my safety, I am willing to wait until the investigation is over. This is the potion I got from the Silver Orchid Chamber of Commerce. It will be used as the cost of your investigation, and the rest will be used as making friends."
Catching the potion, the light golden liquid in the bottle exudes infinite vitality, and just looking at it makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Gordon took out a bottle of identical potion from the storage magic. After comparing them, there was no difference between the two. There was even glittering powder deposited at the bottom, like the scale powder of a fairy.
"There's no need for an investigation. I believe what you said. Now, is it time to answer our questions?"
"Before that, I hope you can guarantee our safety and promise us that you will never attack us. I don't need a long time, just one year will be enough." Yang Yu said with a smile.
"No, absolutely not! We must not let this guy go. His companions beat me up and destroyed my beloved carriage. I must get an explanation." Granny Pomegranate coughed violently a few times, pretending to be old, weak and sick.
Yang Yu took out another bottle of resurrection potion from the system, and at the same time took out an empty bottle, divided out half of the resurrection potion, and threw it to Gordon.
"This medicine is the best medicine in the world. After taking it, her health will naturally get better.
As for the compensation for her carriage, I am willing to pay five times the price. If it is not enough, I can mortgage my equipment. Please let us go."
It was the first time that Gordon met someone who could beg for mercy so openly, and he immediately became interested.
But just as Gordon was about to ask a few questions, Granny Pomegranate shouted in dissatisfaction.
"We should still hand you over to the Chamber of Commerce. Who knows whether what you said is true or not, Gordon, listen to me and come over and help me a little, okay?"
"Pomegranate Granny, don't push your luck. If you want to know the truth, go investigate it yourself."
Gordon threw a full bottle of resurrection potion to Granny Pomegranate.
"This bottle of medicine is for you. Don't come over and get involved. Otherwise, even if you are my grandmother's old friend, don't blame me for turning my back on you."
