"So what do you want to do?"
Ishtar's thoughts raced for a moment.
"I just want to verify one thing, you don't have to be nervous."
Jin Qing's tone was calm, polite and unquestionable.
Ishtar looked at Jin Qing in front of him and said, "I am very surprised by what you are like now."
Jin Qing smiled faintly when he heard this: "Really?"
"You didn't look like a human being before."
Ishtar stared at him. "More like a monster in human skin."
"What now?"
The two looked at each other for only a few breaths, but in secret, there was a surge that ordinary people could not perceive.
Jin Qing still looked gentle and calm, giving people a harmless and relaxing atmosphere.
"You're like an overly disguised monster now." Ishtar's eyes were filled with sarcasm. "I used to be confused. How could someone as cold and arrogant as you be chosen by Yili? Later, I understood. You two are of the same kind, and people of the same kind always seek out people of their own kind."
Jin Qing: "Yeah."
He was not aroused by Ishtar's tone and remained calm.
"Tell me, what do you want to ask?"
Ishtar looked at Jin Qing.
Jin Qing: "Yili once made a bet with someone named 7001. As long as she could change a small copy into shape, she would win.
I checked and verified that bet repeatedly afterwards and found that she did not make any wrong move and every decision she made was perfect. However, she was just a little bit short of winning.
I checked all the doubts in my mind one by one, and found that the only accident happened to you. Ishtar, can you tell me, did you do anything that day without telling her?"
Ishtar hadn't felt this way in a long time.
It was like a traveler who was lost in the grassland wilderness and would never die, but finally stepped into a swamp that would take his life, and was instantly dragged in and drowned.
Suffocation, trembling, excitement, fear, like an overturned seasoning box flooding into his taste buds, irritating his stomach and causing a tingling sour taste.
He thought that this secret would last until his death, and one day when he disappeared, this time bomb suddenly exploded.
No matter how Yili viewed him at that time, he would never know.
Ishtar's Adam's apple twitched, her expression still tinged with sarcasm. "What? Are you suspecting that I betrayed her? Didn't I betray her when I became the boss of this dungeon?"
Jin Qing remained calm: "You are lying, Ishtar."
The emotion on Ishtar's face disappeared: "I have been lying all along, Jin Qing."
"You've worked with me for so long, you should know why I asked you this. I don't do things I'm not sure of. I just wanted to confirm the answer in my heart. Now, I'm sure."
"What? What do you want to do? Kill me? Kill me? Torture me? Tell Yili the truth? Avenge Yili and those dead ants?"
A sarcastic smile appeared on Ishtar's lips. "Mr. Jin Qing, we are not from the same world. So, don't try to..."
"Trying to what?"
A voice sounded from behind Ishtar.
Yili stood behind Ishtar and asked.
Ishtar turned and looked at Yili, his eyes full of shock.
"So we have some bloody and complicated past?"
Jin Qing took out a glass bottle from his arms, which contained light blue liquid.
"I have obtained Talil's tears for you."
Yi Li looked at Jin Qing: "Are you with Tariel? Have you won him over with your love?"
Jin Qing shook his head: "I made him smoke his eyes with onions while reading a melodramatic novel."
Yi Li: "???"
Isn’t it said that we should influence people with love?
Is love in a sadistic novel okay?
Ishtar was caught between the two of them and felt it was extremely ironic.
In the past, he was also treated as a background board, standing by and watching them bicker with each other.
Still today.
Ishtar felt like there was something wrong with his brain, and he actually felt a little nostalgic.
"Oh."
Ishtar sneered.
Yili looked at Ishtar and pretended to be concerned: "Is your throat uncomfortable?"
Ishtar: “…No.”
Ishtar looked at Yili: "Will you kill me with your own hands?"
"She won't, but I will."
Jin Qing smiled gently and looked at Ishta.
Yi Li looked at Jin Qing with some surprise.
What? She doesn't need to do it herself?
"I didn't ask you."
Ishtar glanced at Jin Qing with a cold tone.
Suddenly, an idea came to Yili's mind that surprised her.
Does Ishtar want me to kill him with my own hands?
"You want me to kill you?"
Yili looked at Ishtar in front of him, not understanding why he had such thoughts.
Could it be that he had a change of heart and wanted to use death to atone for his sins and alleviate the guilt in his heart?
"What if I say yes?"
Ishtar stopped pretending and turned back to his normal appearance as before, walking towards Yili.
Without the height advantage, Yili had to subconsciously take a few steps back and look up at Ishta.
"No, I'm very kind. You should let Jin Qing kill you."
Although she didn't understand why he didn't resist before dying, she was still very happy that she could leave work early.
Overtime is evil, and labor is shit to her. If it weren't for the purpose of making money to support oneself, who would be willing to sell their body, soul, and will?
How could Yili easily satisfy Ishta's request? Who knows if he is setting a trap for him.
After all, I heard that he seemed to have betrayed me before. I should have been more mature and capable back then. Now she is like a 50% new machine with some problems. It is so easy to deal with her.
Ishtar undoubtedly knew her well.
Yi Li is not a fool. If he agrees immediately, won’t he be like the rabbit that crashes into the wooden stake and dies without hesitation?
Ishtar heard Yili's refusal and asked, "Are you afraid that I will hurt you?"
“…”
Yili answered Ishtar in front of him with his silence.
Jin Qing, who was standing nearby, watched the conversation between the two and waited patiently for Yi Li's choice.
"What if I say that only you can kill me?"
There was a sadness in Ishtar's eyes that Yili couldn't understand: "If you want to leave here, you can only kill me with your own hands."
Yi Li: "..."
She is just a poor worker.
It's quite exciting to let her pick up a knife at such an innocent age and kill a boss who is determined to be killed by her...
"Isn't this progressing too fast? Don't you want to resist?"
Yili always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was.
Isn’t this too easy?
It feels like being on vacation when you enter here.
After playing for a while, you can go back after killing the boss who comes to you to die.
"To die in your hands is my last wish."
