Jiang Lai: ...I see. Let's spray some floral water (bushi)
Although Jiang Lai complained in his heart that the other party had no good intentions, he still smiled and said, "Okay."
The soul body's Zhuo Fu Jingguang's face darkened, and his blue-gray eyes now looked more like Scotland, like the deep waves before a rainstorm, surging with a faint sense of danger.
He turned around and said hello to Jiang Lai, then followed Samuster, intending to see in advance what this guy was going to do.
Jiang Laihe closed the door and his expression became serious.
Although spraying floral water can make the other party feel disgusted, it cannot stop the other party from doing anything. It is only a superficial measure.
Samuster's physical defense value has reached the maximum value. If we want to deal with the opponent, it seems that we need to approach from other angles, such as... poisoning? Is this possible?
Jiang Lai fell into thought. He was not very familiar with this, and he had nothing in his hand at the moment. Samuster seemed to have mentioned that the plants on the island were poisonous, but it seemed that if he used objects on the other side's territory to fight back, it would not be very effective.
...What a troublesome guy.
Jiang Lai retracted his gaze and caught a glimpse of Kurosawa Akira sitting beside the bed. Suddenly, another thought crossed his mind - by the way, is Xiao Zhao's psychological suggestion, which is similar to a spirit of words, useful?
Kurosawa Akira raised his head, revealing gray eyes. His second personality reappeared, and his eyes were calm: "Samuster will come to see you tonight."
"Huh?" The other party used a certain tone.
"Because before everything starts, he will negotiate with you." Kurosawa Akira said slowly, "At night, people's emotions fluctuate more. This time is suitable for him to explore your true feelings."
Negotiate terms... Jiang Lai pondered, considering what the other party might say and his own response.
"What do you think of him?" Kurosawa Akira suddenly asked again.
"?" A question mark popped up above Jiang Lai's head, "Who?"
"Samuster."
"..." Jiang Lai choked, "Him? Of course I don't have a good impression of him. Although he looks like a gentle gentleman, he is just a pervert with a repressed soul. He is very persistent about certain things and has difficulty dealing with them... I am considering how to cooperate with Amuro Toru to collect information here, and report him when I go back."
Kurosawa Akira looked at him for a few seconds, then shook his head and said, "No."
"You should say that he is a public figure who has a bright future in the media and a scientist who became famous at a young age. He has a relatively positive image in the eyes of ordinary people. Behind the scenes, he has connections with people from all walks of life and has extensive network resources. He has outstanding research in the fields of electronic research and medicine, and has abundant financial resources and skills."
The silver-haired boy narrated calmly.
"He has his own exclusive hobbies and is very obsessed with his collections, so he can be traded and exploited. He is relatively rational and can sit down for negotiations. His trustworthiness needs to be considered, but we can put him on a small contract to work out the details. There are two ways to deal with him: privately and publicly, but both are more difficult and may require cooperation with other people or organizations."
"..." Jiang Lai listened to Kurosawa Akira's narration. He was a little stunned at first, but later he seemed to understand the angle of Kurosawa Akira's speech.
——It is considered from the perspective of a superior.
As a BOSS.
"This is how you should think, Jiang Lai brother." Kurosawa Akira smiled, "Reconsider the situation of Samuster. I don't think you and Amuro brother can and should solve him this time~"
"It will be more effective if we keep him now." Kurosawa Akira sat on the bed, shaking his two little feet, and said cheerfully, "These technologies are very cutting-edge. If you can let him serve you, your journey forward will be much easier."
"——It won't be too late to dismantle the bridge after we cross the river."
He lowered his grey eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up without any warmth, indifferent and calm.
"..." Jiang Lai was silent for a few seconds. He digested and absorbed the words just now, combined with his own thoughts, and realized that what Kurosawa Akira said was indeed right.
The data collected this time alone may not be enough to arrest Samuel.
As for his technology and medical skills... well, if I could use them for my own benefit, they would definitely be a huge help.
Jiang Lai tilted his head to think for a few seconds, then asked, "If he came to see me tonight, would you go with him, Xiao Zhao?"
"No." Kurosawa Akira answered straightforwardly. Under Jiang Lai's gaze, he blinked and replied, "Because I also have things I want to do."
"But don't worry, Brother Jiang Lai," the silver-haired boy raised his face, his back to the sun, his gray eyes between light and dark, "...I will show up when I am supposed to."
The night on the island was unexpectedly quiet, with no insects or birds chirping.
The sound of knocking on the door became the only note that broke the silence.
Jiang Lai went forward and opened the door. The person outside was not a familiar figure. The man in standard work clothes motioned Jiang Lai to follow him. Mr. Samuel had something to talk to him in the tea room tonight.
really.
Jiang Lai put on a standard smile on his face. He followed the man forward. His soul body Zhufu Jingguang floated in front, paying attention to the surrounding environment.
The teahouse was not far away, and the door decorated with gold patterns looked special. The man politely opened the door for Jiang Lai, and inside sat a blond gentleman who had been waiting.
Samuster was wearing a nice tuxedo. He smiled and looked up and said, "Good evening, Mr. Jiang Lai - come and sit down."
"Good evening." Jiang Lai responded and walked forward, and the door behind him closed softly.
The teahouse was elegant and generous, with the decorations arranged in an ornate and orderly manner. Samuster, wearing a pair of white gloves, poured a cup of tea for Jiang Lai smoothly: "Please enjoy."
"Thank you." Jiang Lai responded, but he showed no intention of drinking.
After all, who knows what will be in the tea and on the teacup? Jiang Lai always measures things here with the greatest suspicion, and he doesn't want to be drugged.
The soul body of Morofu Jingguang also reminded him in his ear to remain vigilant.
"I originally wanted to have you have a physical examination tonight, and we can officially start tomorrow." Samuster took a sip from his teacup. "However, the equipment is still being updated, so after thinking about it, it would be better for me to just chat with you tonight."
"..." Jiang Lai had a fake smile on his face. He had no interest in arguing with Samuster.
"Would you like some tea? The taste of this tea is very unique, I like it very much." Samuster raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
"No, I'm not very thirsty." Jiang Lai refused, "And I'm worried that I won't be able to sleep, so I'd better not drink tea at night."
"Really?" Samuster nodded, not really paying attention. He picked up the teapot and poured some more into the cup, saying, "The environment here is very good. I believe you can have a good sleep."
"..." No matter what the other party said, it seemed strange. Jiang Lai just blinked and didn't reply.
After pouring the tea, Samust raised his face. He did not tie his hair up tonight, and his smooth golden long hair hung down naturally.
He looked at Jiang Lai with an elegant smile on his face, and said in an admiring tone: "You have really beautiful eyes, young sir."
"You've already said this, Mr. Summers." Jiang Lai replied calmly.
"Yes, I remember the time in Sakura Valley." Samuste smiled, "But... it is indeed more beautiful at night - especially against the backdrop of night."
"..." Now they were in the brightly lit teahouse, and the word "night" was far away from them. What Samuster was referring to was probably not the present, but the sniper attack on the rooftop before.
Jiang Lai understood it very well in his heart, but on the surface he did not respond to what Samuel said. He just changed the direction of his reply: "It's just a common and ordinary eye. No need to flatter me, Mr. Samuel."
"The most beautiful thing worth exploring is in the simplest colors." Samust put his index finger on his lips. "I think it is because of the extraordinary sceneries in the ordinary that it is more impressive."
"Maybe." Jiang Lai smiled perfunctorily.
"Mr. Amuro's eyes are also very beautiful," Samuster said softly, "They are a rare purple-gray color, with an unknown and mysterious flavor."
Upon hearing this, the soul body of Morofu Jingguang narrowed his eyes and whispered, "I'll go check on Zero's situation and be back soon." He quickly floated away.
Is the other party planning to take them both down at once? Jiang Lai put on a fake smile. What a big appetite.
But neither pair of eyes will succeed.
"Of course, I still admire Mr. Jiang Lai more." Samuster returned to the topic and gently shook the teacup. "The condition of your hand may be treatable, but it is a bit complicated. Our researchers are trying to find a way to overcome it."
Here they come. Jiang Lai's mind was focused. This was the time to start negotiating terms.
"But don't worry, Mr. Jiang Lai." Samuste smiled. "We will certainly do our best to overcome the difficulties and help you recover your health. It's just that there may be some uncertainty about the time, so we can't give you an accurate answer. I hope you can understand, but we will do it as soon as possible."
Samuel's words were sincere, but Jiang Lai understood them very clearly in his heart.
The reason why the time is uncertain is that the other party needs to negotiate with him. It is estimated that as long as the negotiation is not successful, the completion time of the treatment cannot be determined, but will be extended indefinitely.
Jiang Lai raised his head and replied hypocritically: "Is that so? You have worked so hard. In that case, how can I thank you?"
"This is originally a free treatment for Mr. Jiang Lai. There is no need to discuss any reward. You are the hero of Mihua." Samuster smiled.
He then changed the subject: "However, since this is the first time we have faced a case like yours, there may be certain side effects during the treatment... Well, for example, drugs and radiation may cause damage to the eyes - but don't worry, even if there are side effects, at least one eye will be protected. We will of course do our best to eliminate these negative effects."
The conditional information was already revealed in the hypocritical words, and Samuster simply stated that one eye would be enough.
Jiang Lai knew it in his heart, but he didn't say anything. He just smiled without saying anything.
Samust adjusted his glasses, his gray-green eyes fixed on the black-haired young man, and chuckled, "Wouldn't it be better to cure it earlier? The side effects will only affect one eye at most... Compared to your hand, the impact on your work will be relatively small."
"——Mr. Sniper on the rooftop?"
Samustra spoke out this identity directly in a long and gentle voice.
It was also at this time that Morofushi Jingguang came back: "...Zero is outside the door now." He informed.
