"So, my answer is..."
As Ning Feng drew out his words, he looked at No. 86, who was certain that he would agree, and a thought grew stronger in his mind.
My favorite thing to do is to say "no!" to self-righteous people.
Once this idea emerged, it spread like wildfire.
I simply couldn't control myself.
So, following his heart's desire, Ning Feng spoke:
"I refuse."
The wind stopped, the rain stopped, and Ning Feng felt incredibly guilty.
Although I felt like I had been led astray by some heartless scoundrel, I was still amazed by the other person's blank expression.
Ning Feng experienced the pleasure of being immoral at that moment.
happy.
I'm so happy!
On the other side, Number 86, who was still thinking about Ning Feng's agreement and continuing his introduction, suddenly froze, looking completely bewildered.
He didn't even understand what Ning Feng had said at first.
reject?
He just said he refused, right?
The other party declined my invitation, not wanting to become a part of the court?
Is this for real?
"you……"
Just as he was about to speak, he found that Ning Feng had grasped his outstretched hand and shaken it vigorously twice.
Um?
This perplexing move left No. 86 even more confused.
"...What is this?"
You declined my invitation, but why did you hold my hand?
Is this some kind of manipulative, manipulative behavior?
Could this be the legendary PUA?!
No. 86 - Confused.jpg
Are you confused?
Ning Feng's voice, full of laughter, rang out. He released his grip and shrugged, a hint of mockery on his face.
"I feel the same way."
"Don't you think this unfolded too suddenly? I haven't figured out the situation at all, and under these circumstances, I can only decline your offer."
An argument that cannot be found to have flaws on the surface.
As for the real reason...
Ning Feng couldn't possibly tell No. 86:
It's mainly because your pose is too good; I find it hard to resist your shameless temptation.
This truth is too cruel. What if he gets hurt?
That's not good.
Wearing a mask, it must be really painful to have tears streaming down your face.
Ah, I am truly gentle.
Since the real reason cannot be stated, some plausible excuses must be found to cover it up.
Ning Feng felt he was becoming more and more proficient at this.
Moreover, he had absolutely no clue what to do, which was truly perplexing.
“Mr. 86, although we are both under the Watchers, you may have forgotten one thing: with my limited authority, I cannot know too much about the Inquisition.”
Ning Feng wasn't even a formal operator before; ordinary people don't have many privileges to obtain within the Watchers.
Because it's unsafe.
Unless a restriction is placed on the soul, the ordinary person's mind is open to certain beings.
All Ning Feng knew about the courthouse was its name and some unsavory rumors.
Mysterious and terrifying.
Even disregarding that, the mere act of understanding a great deal of information can have an impact.
"Now that you've extended an invitation to me, I'd like to know what I can gain?"
Even if it's a scammer recruiting people, they have to give them some benefits, right?
You need to build up a good impression before confessing your feelings. You didn't say anything and just invited me right away. Isn't that a bit too much?
In short, in a nutshell.
What are the benefits?
The teasing smile faded, and Ning Feng looked seriously at Agent 86, who was wearing a crow mask, and said softly:
"At the same time, I'd like to know what I need to give up?"
That's right, it's more important to understand the costs you have to pay than to gain the benefits!
So, Gul'dan, what was the price?
Ning Feng doesn't know if there's such a thing as a free lunch, but those small ads on the wall offering huge sums of money for a child are definitely suspicious.
Instead of believing in free lunches, it's better to worry more about whether you'll become the free lunch yourself!
"…………"
After watching for a while, Number 86 still felt a sense of unease, but he accepted Ning Feng's explanation.
That makes perfect sense.
"That was my mistake."
No. 86 knows very well about Ning Feng's background.
Even with his talent, and for some unknown reason being favored by that legend, Ning Feng was originally just an ordinary person without any special background.
After a moment's thought, Number 86 carefully chose his words and explained without revealing too much:
"By joining the Tribunal, you will gain higher authority, better resource supply and enhanced strength, and more choices in some matters."
"Moreover, it will not affect your original job."
"Part-time work is permitted, or rather, most people have other nominal positions."
They could be in the combat sequence, the command sequence, or even just ordinary people who have no connection to the world of Awakeners.
"Someone like me, when I wear a mask, is a crow in the courtroom; when I take off the mask, I am who I really am."
Rather, aside from those who were secretly cultivated from the beginning, most of those who joined later, like Ning Feng, were like this.
In other words, joining the courthouse is like having an extra identity, a better disguise.
After Ning Feng finished digesting the information, Number 86 continued, "..."
"As for the cost, there will naturally be one."
"While enjoying the benefits, you also have to put in the work. There will be regular tasks assigned and performance evaluations."
