Chapter 31 The Real Vulnerability of the Greedy Box
"Your Highness, something bad has happened!!!"
Morris shouted in panic.
He transformed from a shadow into reality and slowly emerged in Yvesette's room.
Seeing her subordinate barge into the study without knocking, Iviste was a little displeased, but she did not put down the teacup in her hand: "What's the matter?"
"Lin En. Lin En is in the cellar now, preparing to take that thing out!"
"What?"
Yvesette frowned.
At the same time, Afiya, who was originally sleeping on the desk, opened her sleepy eyes.
"It's the Greed Box." Morris swallowed nervously, "Lynn discovered some patterns in the box and seems to be preparing to do something about it now."
In fact, he didn't understand the real meaning of that sentence.
But seeing that such a smart Ms. Melanie had such a secretive expression, he suddenly felt anxious.
Hearing this, Yvesette couldn't help but put down her teacup, stood up with a cold expression, and an invisible majesty enveloped the entire study.
"Who allowed you to bring him there? Is he okay?!"
Lynn is the only successful hypnosis subject and currently her most valued subordinate. She may even be the next head of the Bartlion family in the future.
No matter from which perspective, we cannot die over such trivial matters.
But Yvesette never expected that Rhine would be so bold as to bring him to the Box of Greed.
You know, when testing the properties of such items before, the manor consumed more than a hundred death row prisoners! If you are not careful, the box will endlessly demand a price until there is nothing left! Seeing this, Morris's face turned pale and he smiled bitterly, "He's fine."
It would be better to say that the guy was doing very well in the cellar, and people felt from the bottom of their hearts that he was a genius.
Instead of worrying about Lynn, I should worry about Rhine.
Although he also felt that Rhine had brought it upon himself.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid you will have to clean up the mess."
Morris suggested gritted his teeth.
Hearing this, Yvesette closed her eyes, as if thinking about something.
After a moment, the displeasure on her face suddenly disappeared, and she sat back in her chair as if nothing had happened.
"Don't worry about this matter. Let that guy do whatever he wants."
"But remember to tell him that I indulged him this time, so he should do that thing well to repay me."
"yes!"
Morris took the order.
He silently worried about Rhine.
Can this sentence be understood as, even if Lin En killed the heir of the Augusta family in the cellar, His Highness would let him go this time? My God, this was really a moment, Morris's heart was full of shock.
After Morris left, Yvesette sighed softly.
She pinched her brows to relieve the boredom and annoyance of reviewing documents, and murmured, "What a troublesome guy."
"Your Highness, aren't you afraid that guy will really do something irreparable?"
Afia, who was awakened, blinked her eyes and asked curiously.
Hearing this, Ivisette's face remained calm: "Don't worry, he is very smart and will not choose to cause trouble at a time like this."
It was because she knew this that she said words that indulged him.
For Yvesette, this was an unspoken understanding, and she believed that Lin En could also distinguish the importance of each.
After coming back to her senses, looking at Afiya whose eyes were rolling around, Iviste immediately understood what she was thinking.
Hakimi was born with ADHD and is curious about everything.
Simply put, Afia wanted to join in the fun.
Yvesette picked up the pen again and continued her previous work, while casually saying, "Go ahead and keep an eye on him for me."
Hearing this, Afia nodded repeatedly and then ran away.
"Are you here?"
In the holding room, Lynn, who was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, couldn't help but smile as he looked at the blond man who came to the door breathlessly.
At this moment, while enjoying the puppet's leg-pounding service, he crumpled the note into a ball and tossed it back and forth in his hand.
From time to time, he would make a three-point shot, as if he would throw the paper ball into the wooden box at any time.
Looking at the boy in the holding room, Rhine was furious.
"What do you want?"
He looked at Lynn warily.
The reason why I felt so nervous was entirely because of the handwriting on the note.
"Give me a gold coin and I'll give you a promise: Rhine Augusta will set you free."
This sentence is easy to understand.
Once the transaction is completed, Rhine Augusta must follow the contents of the note and free the existence trapped in the box.
If he violates the trading rules, he will face death penalty.
But if he released the unknown terrifying existence in the box, his father would not let him go even without Her Royal Highness the Princess taking action.
So at this moment, Rhine is facing a dead end.
Of course, all this is based on the premise that Lynn will throw the note into the wooden box and complete the transaction.
Hearing this, Lin En smiled and said, "That's not right, how can it be what I want?"
"It was you who brought me here. It was you who left me to die in the beginning. Even now, I can still feel the anger hidden in your heart."

"So, it's not what I want, but what you want."
Looking at the calm Lin En, Rhine gritted his teeth and suppressed his dissatisfaction: "Do you think you have me?"
"Don't think you can figure out all the rules of the Greed Box in just a few dozen minutes. As far as I know, in order to realize the transaction content on the note, I must be there in person to complete it."
"If you really want to put the note in, the Greed Box will only recognize you as the one who made the promise to it."
"In the end, you will be the only one who pays the price."
Having said that, Rhine still didn't dare to gamble.
After all, people only have one life.
Moreover, he thought he did not understand all the rules of this mysterious box of greed.
What if it really comes true?
He looked at Lin En, hoping that the other party would listen to him.
Unexpectedly, a trace of disdain suddenly appeared in Lin En’s eyes: “I said you are an idiot, but you still don’t believe it.”
"Do you think that if I wasn't absolutely sure I could kill you, I would show the note so openly?"
Rhine was stunned: "What did you say?"
"It is true that the transaction must be done by the person himself." Lin En said sarcastically, "If that is the case, then why not let the 'person himself' do it?"
"I'm too lazy to tell you the details, and you don't deserve to hear them."
Suddenly, Lynn frowned and glanced at the puppet beside him.
Seeing this, it showed a flattering smile, and pounded its legs with a little more force, praying in its heart that this disaster star would not turn its spearhead towards it.
The reason is actually very simple.
In a previous attempt, Lynn had tried to write something like "Give me a gold coin and I'll give you a drop of my blood."
Different from the previous writing, he changed "Lynn Bartleon's blood" to "my blood".
At the same time, Lynn activated the Liar Eater's ability and told himself a lie.
The lie was: I am Rhine Augusta, the eldest son of Baron Augusta and the future heir to the estate.
As a result, something interesting happened.
The content on the note froze for a long time, and then reset again.
Lin En guessed that it was probably because the subject of the transaction had changed, which caused the Greed Box to crash.
After all, what it wanted was Lynn's blood, but suddenly the person writing became another person, so it had to restart the cycle.
It seems that although the wooden box can know the identity of the trader, it is only by reading consciousness.
As long as Lynn "thinks" that he is someone else, he can complete the transaction on behalf of others.
And this is the biggest loophole in the Greedy Box that Lin En discovered.
And at the moment, it seems that only he can use this loophole.
Feeling Lin En's aura, Rhine was already sweating profusely.
Although I don't know where his confidence comes from, it is probably not false.
Seeing his expression, Lin En laughed out loud: "Don't be so nervous. After all, we have the relationship of colleagues. For the sake of His Highness, I can't really kill you."
"But the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped."
"Rhine, Rhine, you offered yourself up, how should I punish you?"
