Chapter 39
Chapter 39
There are a large number of pipes laid out in an orderly manner underground in this city, transporting water, fuel oil, or heating.Several entrances to the ground have been set up on the edge of the city so that plumbers can go down to work.
Sean followed the ladder into the underground space densely packed with pipes.Holding the pipe, he walked forward in the dark.He doesn't need lights.Someone had shown him a map, and the route was in his head now.It was enough for him to find the right way.
He came across several locations where the pipes intersected.These pipes of various diameters almost blocked the road, and Sean had to squeeze through the gaps between them.Fortunately, he is relatively thin, so as long as he pays attention, he will not get the rust and oil stains from the pipes on his body.
Not sure how Derek got Medanzo over there.That guy probably suffered a lot.
Sean counted silently, and turned to the right fork after encountering three difficult obstacles.Going forward, Sean and Derek met each other.The other party was coming out of the plumber's underground tool room.
Seeing the burly man take off his coat, Sean knew what had happened.He stared at Derek's angry expression. "Did you hit him?"
"nonsense."
"Good fight." Sean came a little closer and asked in a low voice, "What did he say?"
"No matter how much I asked, he only had one answer. He said he didn't know anything about it. That's the most bullshit I've ever heard in my life."
"I understand your feelings. Let's not say that I watched him take the gun away with my own eyes; even if the Levin family didn't want to frame us, given the status of this family, as long as other nobles want to do something, they must communicate with them. If Medanzo said he had nothing to do with it, I would never believe it."
"Yes, that's what Francis told me, I understand. But no matter how I ask him, he won't say anything!" Derek raised his voice.The excitable big man was filled with righteous indignation again: "This guy is a bunch of..."
"No matter what you call him, it won't help." Sean said calmly, "Leave him to me and let me ask him. By the way, you didn't beat him too hard, did you?"
"No. Damn, didn't you tell me not to hurt him too much, and don't hit him in the face? And if he was dying, you couldn't live. I remember this. I only put him I dislocated both wrists, just in case. But he laughed at me later, and I knocked him out in a fit of anger."
Sean breathed a sigh of relief.He was really afraid that the other party would hurt Mei Danzuo too badly. "Next, leave me alone with him. You're tired too."
"Okay. If he asks you to put his hands on, do so, but don't let him take them off. Noble magic is too dangerous."
"I understand, thank you for your concern." Sean nodded and pushed the door open.
Medanzo was sitting in a chair, his head drooped in unconsciousness, his long blond hair covering his face.Since his upper body was tied to the chair, his back was still tightly pressed against the back of the chair even though he was unconscious.Derek also seemed to be cautious once, finding something to cover Medanzo's eyes.But Sean wasn't sure if Medanzo saw Derek's face at all; he knew that Medanzo wasn't that stupid.
Sean looked at Medanzo for a moment, then poured a glass of water.He held the opponent's chin with his hand, asked the opponent to raise his head, and then slowly poured water on the opponent's face.
Shocked by the cold water, Medanzuo came to his senses, and Sean withdrew his hand when the other party regained consciousness.
"Xion? Is that you?" After asking this sentence, Medanzuo waited for a while.Without waiting for a response, he continued, "Your companion is too rude to wake me up in such a gentle way."
"I'm really flattered that you praise me so much." Sean said coldly, looking down at the people sitting on the chair.As if sensing his gaze in the dark, Medanzuo raised his head slightly, with a calm expression that surprised Sean. "You're not nervous. Now we can do whatever we want with you, and you were taught a lesson just now."
Medanzo smiled and shook his head. "You can't do anything but hit me. I won't be in danger. I saw it at the banquet. Your companion is too intimate with you. He won't kill me at the cost of your life." This The words made Sean feel awkward, but Medanzo didn't give him time to chew them carefully. "It's pointless to plot and torture me. I didn't set you up. The Levins wouldn't do such a thing. I have nothing to say beyond that."
"Really?" Shane asked softly.In a sense, among the aristocrats he knew, the Levin family was indeed upright; but he couldn't forget how James made beautiful and false promises, and in turn accused himself righteously.When he thought of the past, the bit of unbearable feeling towards Mei Danzuo in his heart quickly receded, leaving only anger.
Sean fell silent, and Medanzo waited quietly.Medanzo decided that Sean would believe in himself.I might even forgive your companion for his rudeness, he thought, if you would be nice to me.
Soon, Medanzuo heard Sean speak: "You really don't need to say anything." After that, something cold and hard hit him on the shoulder.The pain came so suddenly, Medanzuo was a little hesitant, but this hesitation soon dissipated due to the recurring pain.
Sean unloaded the gun to prevent it from firing, then turned it upside down, gripped it tightly in his hand, and slammed the metal handle at Medanzo. "When you say 'sorry' and 'no comment', you should really look in the mirror and see your expression. It's so arrogant and annoying. Why do I have to accept your apology after being insulted by you? Why do we have to accept your pale explanation when the workers' organization is almost in jeopardy? It's time for you to wake up."
Anger overshadowed Shane.He smashed the thing in his hand to the side of Medanzo's head.The other party let out a barely audible cry of pain.Sean heard it and gradually calmed down.He knew he was venting anger and had to control his behavior.
Medanzuo had gritted his teeth and endured it before, but this one made his head tingle and dizzy, as if someone aimed a slender awl at his temple and pierced his head.He gasped for a long time, until the terrible pain subsided and the urge to vomit ceased. "You've finally got it on your mind that I like you. Should I be happy?"
Sean was stunned. "what are you talking about?"
"You took your companion away, because you didn't want me to find him and take revenge on him. But you are more aggressive than him, and you are simply unscrupulous. Because you know, I will never pursue you."
The other party's tone was too firm, and Sean felt a little guilty and couldn't help turning his head away.He has always been cautious, and what he just did was indeed abnormal.He always sneered at Mei Danzuo's "liking", but when Mei Danzuo reminded him like this, he found that he really took this absurd feeling seriously.Sean is distraught by his new discovery, but it doesn't make him forget business. "At least this time you know what it means to deserve it. You've done this to your subordinates before, haven't you?"
"Yes. But since the day I got you, I haven't done that again."
Gosh, the topics of our conversations keep going awry.Anxiety and anger were intertwined, but in the end Sean fell into a situation where he couldn't laugh or cry. "If you want to continue to be beaten, just keep talking nonsense like this. The nobles will always communicate with each other when they do things. We are the right person to find you. Which family is it?"
Medanzuo lowered his head and didn't say a word.When Sean couldn't hold back and was about to ask again, Medan Zuo finally spoke: "Not a nobleman."
"Impossible." Sean denied, "You are one. If it wasn't for someone from the nobles to frame us, why would you allow me to beat you like this without telling the truth?"
Medanzo was silent for a while.His haughty reserve is battling with real emotion, which eventually prevails. "You never forgive me. Although your attitude towards me is better than before, you just changed your anger into ignorance. I don't like you like this. I apologized, but you didn't accept it. Since you think I am like this..." His words suddenly stopped and turned into a violent cough.Sean may have caused some damage to his internal organs when he attacked. When he coughed, blood was coughed up, staining his pale lips red.
Sean gasped.He thought, if he heard correctly, what Medanzo meant—to repay the debt by letting himself vent his anger?
It was a really colorful day, full of ups and downs, tricks and innovations.First, he was framed and framed, and then he kidnapped a young master, and after being beaten to death by himself, the young master tried to get his forgiveness.What a surprise this sequence of events was.
Medanzo tasted his own blood.His clothes were drenched in cold sweat, almost every part of his body was in pain, and his head was dizzy and extremely heavy because of the heavy blow from the gun butt.He had the illusion that he was going to die, but the soft fingers touching his cheek somehow saved him.
The blood on Medanzo's lips was wiped away by Sean's fingers, and the veil on his eyes was also torn off.Medanzo adjusted to the light, and then looked at Sean.He saw Sean's expressionless face, as if he was indifferent to his own words.However, Sean's voice was much gentler than before: "This method is really stupid, but it's not useless."
Of course it will work, you are too easy to soften your heart.Mei Danzuo thought in his heart, but didn't say anything out of his mouth. "Well, I need a drink. My mouth smells like rust."
"I understand. I'm sorry, my companion and I hit you too hard." Sean felt a little guilty.He poured a glass of water and carefully brought the glass to the other's lips. "What do you need me to do for you?"
Mei Danzuo took a few sips of water, suppressed the smell of blood in his mouth, and smiled at Sean. "Untie the rope on my body and connect my wrists. This state is really uncomfortable. Of course, it would be even better if you could give me a kiss."
Sean followed Medanzuo's first sentence.As for the second sentence, he just ignored it. "Don't put on an innocent expression. The assassination of the royal family has nothing to do with you. Since you are not a noble, then I have figured out some things. Up to now, the nobles still respect the royal family. If you attack the royal family, you can disperse them." The attention of the nobles, and even their power. This is the struggle of politicians, but they choose to let the top birds of the common people take the blame."
Medanzo looked at Sean in surprise. "You understand the situation so well. Yes, the old glory of the royal family is still important to us, but to those big businessmen in power, the royal family is just a worthless symbol."
"Not only do I understand this, but I also understand why you haven't told the truth." Sean had mixed feelings.The nobles had conflicts of interest with the big merchants in power, and the common people groups who wanted to rebel were also their enemies.Everyone wants to put the enemy to death.Medanzo was right to stand idly by and keep his side from knowing the truth.
He understood that Mei Danzuo picked up the gun to protect himself.
Sean cast his gaze on Medanzo.The opponent was moving his wrist, which was not very flexible due to the injury. "Does it hurt a lot?"
"It's okay. Those few hits from you hurt more." Mei Danzuo said lightly.
Sean sighed, a little resigned.He leaned over and kissed her lightly on the forehead. "Hope this kiss makes you feel better."
