Bai Luo naturally knew what his subordinates were thinking.
But the old guy Kujo Takayuki cannot step down or be killed now.
At least before Bai Luo achieves his goal, he must still sit in the position of Lord Fengxing.
But if he said this directly to his subordinates, even though they would not go against his wishes, they would definitely feel more or less uncomfortable.
"No... boring?"
The Fatui were trained to fight for a certain purpose, so they always do things decisively without too many twists and turns.
"Yeah, you've suffered so much injustice in prison. If you just get rid of him so easily, will you really feel the pleasure of revenge?"
Putting down the teacup in his hand, Bai Luo smiled brightly and spoke softly.
And his words, like an invisible big hand, grabbed the attention of everyone present.
"But... But after we expose him, won't he be sent to prison and experience the same pain we once experienced?"
The subordinate asked with a bit of confusion.
Even if he won't say anything openly, but Kujo Takayuki has been secretly colluding with the Fatui and leaked so many secrets, General Raiden will definitely not let him off easily.
By then, imprisonment will be inevitable.
"And then? The prison is under the charge of Tianling Bugei. This old man has been in this position for so many years, how could he not have some diehard fans? By then, his life in prison might be more comfortable than outside."
What Bai Luo said was not groundless.
He didn't think he could hide the fact that Kujo Takayuki was secretly communicating with the Fatui from everyone.
But until now, he is still at large, which shows that he definitely has a group of loyal followers who only obey his orders.
"Besides, it is our tradition to repay debts, but simply repaying debts is not our style, so... the best way is to torment him once, squeeze out all the remaining value, and then find a way to kill him."
Killing a former magistrate may sound difficult, but for the Fatui, it is a simple matter.
The reason why he is still alive in the game is not only because he does not really want to betray Inazuma and simply wants to use the Fatui, but also because this is a 12+ game.
But we don't have such restrictions here.
As long as he lost his power, Bai Luo had many ways to kill him in a deep prison without affecting the Fatui.
For example, those small families that had suffered greatly from Kujo Takayuki before.
I believe that as long as Bai Luo gives them this opportunity, these small families will definitely not let it go.
Chapter 917 I call it [Being Played Badly]
"Killing with one sword is not a good way. For a guy like Kujo Takayuki, it can be considered a reward. So... if you want to give him this kind of reward, I have no objection."
After taking the information handed over by his subordinate, Bai Luo pretended to put it away.
"Mr. Executive, I wonder what you are going to do? Is there anything we can do to help?"
Bai Luo's words seemed to have some kind of magic, and before they knew it, these men had been attracted by his plan.
"In fact, fear is something that is fresh. I have managed to accomplish one thing through countless killings."
Standing up from the chair, Bai Luo looked at the sunlight shining into the room from outside the door, and a smile as warm as the sunlight appeared on his face.
"When humans are in constant fear, their emotions will gradually die and they will become numb. I call this being 'broken'."
“The real meaning of fear is not static but dynamic. The transition from hope to despair, the fear that breaks hope in an instant, is the true aesthetics of death.”
It was clearly noon, and the executive officer's smile was very gentle and considerate.
But everyone present couldn't help but break out in cold sweats.
Bai Luo's long-term inaction, coupled with his very friendly attitude towards his subordinates, made everyone subconsciously ignore one thing.
This seemingly inconspicuous big boy is actually also a member of the executive team.
No matter how gentle he is, he is still one of the twelve people standing at the top.
"Executive officer, you'd better be careful. Kujo Takayuki is very cunning. What if..."
One of the Fatui mustered up the courage to warn.
The subordinates' concerns are not groundless.
No matter what, it would be a lie to say that he had no ability to ascend to the position of magistrate despite being coveted by many families and to have remained in the position for so many years.
For example, the Fatui's downfall this time.
No matter how they investigated, the extermination of the Fatui could only be traced back to his son and had nothing to do with him.
He even used military law against his son because he "privately" called up elite troops.
Perhaps this move had other purposes, but now that the Fatui have recovered, they really can't use this as an excuse to cause trouble for this old guy.
At most, it would just mess with his son.
"Don't worry. In order to survive, that guy would use his adopted son as a shield, not to mention his biological son. This kind of person... if you give him a little hope, he will wag his tail and beg for mercy like a dog."
With a slightly disdainful expression on his face, Bai Luo spoke out.
The frightened Kujo Takayuki couldn't make any waves now. ωω
The family's foundation, the reputation of the Kujo family, and his prominent position
How could he be willing to die when he has all this
With the help of Kujo Sara's "sacrifice", he gained some hope from Bai Luo.
But just like Bai Luo said before.
Hope is the most terrifying thing in this world.
It's like a drowning person grabbing a lifebuoy thrown on the shore, only to find out that the lifebuoy is made of pure iron.
When he discovers that behind the so-called hope lies even more terrifying despair, the expression on his face will surely be even more exciting, right
"Do your job well and reconnect the intelligence network with the outlying islands and Kaigi Island. Leave that old man Kujo Takayuki to me. Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
After listening to Bai Luo's explanation of hope and despair, the Fatui present had a new understanding of the twelfth seat in front of them.
They immediately half-knelt on the ground, lowered their heads, and responded in unison.
Only then did they remember one thing: although the twelfth executive officer was promoted much faster than ordinary people, he did not get promoted simply by using the back door.
In the Kingdom of Zhidong, the name of this executive officer can make children stop crying.
He literally fought his way up step by step.
"For the next period of time, no one is allowed to move Kujo Takayuki without my order. Do you understand?"
No one can disturb Bai Luo from having fun, not even himself.
"Know!"
After receiving a response from his men, Bai Luo nodded with satisfaction and left the place with light steps.
As for the fools in the house
Only after Bai Luo left did they breathe a sigh of relief.
One person even collapsed to the ground.
It was clear that Ming Luo did not show any ferocious expression the whole time, and even under the passiveness of the black-clad swordsman, he did not even show any murderous intent.
But the pressure he brought to everyone was no less than that of other executives.
He brought an invisible pressure to everyone by smiling while making such dangerous remarks.
The pressure was so great that it was difficult for them to even hold themselves up and not fall down.
In short, this day is probably unforgettable for many people.
“Tick-tock…”
The hands on the pocket watch were ticking. Kujo Sara, wearing a dark kimono, was kneeling in front of the door, waiting for the master of the house to rescue her.
but
A whole day has passed, and not only the master of the house, but even the maids in the house are walking around here.
In order to let people know that she could be rescued at any time, she took a cushion and knelt in such a conspicuous place at the door.
She was quite sure that the servants or maids had seen her.
But these people still chose to turn a blind eye.
Even though she wanted to call them back, they still didn't respond to her.
"It shouldn't be like this..."
She put a little force on her hands on her thighs and grabbed the hem of her kimono.
She was originally very confident, but now she was slightly shaken.
The beads of sweat on her head and her gradually unfocused eyes showed that she was not as calm as she appeared.
[Let's bet on whether he will come to rescue you.]
[When Kujo Takayuki brought you here, you were completely naked, with nothing on.]
[When you know more in the future, you may find that some people and things around you will become more absurd. ]
Originally, she scoffed at Bai Luo's words.
But what happened today has shaken her mind a little.
Could it be that... ... the master of the family is really like he said, actually
Just as I thought of this, my out-of-focus eyes noticed a figure walking towards me from a distance.
"The Patriarch really didn't give up on me!"
His pupils focused quickly and Kujo Sara stood up impatiently, wanting to reach out and grab the approaching figure.
But when the blurry figure became clear, she realized that the person walking from the distance was none other than Bai Luo, who had gone out early in the morning and had just returned.
Hmm... ... there's a smell of gunpowder, herbs, female... ... body odor, and some strange smells on my body.
No, why should I think about these things
"Are you so impatient to see me come back?"
Looking at Kujo Sara who almost stepped out of the house with one foot, Bai Luo asked with a slight smile on his face.
Chapter 918 Another Bet
Faced with Bai Luo's provocative words, all Kujo Sara could do was to give his response stubbornly.
"I still abided by the agreement and did not go out."
He retracted his foot that was about to step forward and knelt back in his seat without even looking at Bai Luo.
Bai Luo seemed to have expected her to say that. He shook his head slightly, holding a small cloth bag in his hand, and walked leisurely to the table.
As soon as the small cloth bag was opened, the fragrance of food wafted out.
Kujo Sara, who had not eaten for the whole day, smelled this scent and his stomach began to growl.
"Want some?"
When the cloth bag was opened, there was no luxurious meal or steaming noodles inside, only a few rice balls with seemingly rich ingredients.
Although rice balls may look inconspicuous, soldiers who are on the march and fighting are quite fond of them. This kind of food that is easy to carry and can quickly fill the stomach is the first choice for restoring physical strength on the battlefield.
It is also Kujo Sara’s favorite food.
"No need, the master will prepare it for me."
These slightly provocative words seemed to be telling Bai Luo: [It won't be long before the head of the family will take me away].
In fact, at this time, she didn't want the head of the family to come over.
"So... how was the battle today? Did you meet your patriarch?"
Bai Luo also picked up the mat next to him and placed it next to Kujo Sara, and also put the rice ball he brought back between the two of them.
