Chapter 38 Crisis(2/2)

On the way in, Bailey said to Gong Hao: "I saw the king's boat. It seems that our cute little princess came to Purgatory Island to find her mount again. Tell me if she found it?"

"No, not yet." Gong Hao replied.

"I feel she has found it." Bailey narrowly squeezed Gong Hao with his eyes: "I heard from the soldiers guarding the boat that the little princess is fascinated by you. She has to be with you almost every day, and even when she goes to bed, she wants you to accompany her to coax her before she falls asleep. Oh my god, you have made her maid unemployed. And you even make the little princess angry for you and cry for you, right? Surprisingly, you have not received any punishment."

"Rumors always spread quickly." Gong Hao replied lightly.

"Don't worry, it's just passing among colleagues. Isn't it boring to stay here? Those guys don't have the leaves you gave them, they must have been fumigated every day. I guess they want you to offend the little princess early and run back from the island."

"No, I gave them leaves. You know that having a relationship with a princess is not necessarily a good thing. It can cause you a lot of trouble, such as jealousy, which is the most terrible one, so I helped them. I don't need to make enemies for myself, right?"

"Oh, do you know Xiuyi? What I admire most is yours. You are always calm, rational, and you will never offend anyone easily. I doubt that with your intelligence, how could you not find any little secrets about the island?" Bailey laughed.

Gong Hao was shocked and looked at Bailey: "What do you want to say? Bailey."

Bailey grinned: "Okay, Xiuyi, don't pretend to be stupid with me. You know there are many secret deals between us, and I can't betray you. You just want to survive, right? You have been working here for almost two years. You are the only one who has broken through the rules here and became an apprentice. I don't believe that with your efforts and wisdom, you will not be able to see some strange names."

Gong Hao was stunned: "Just because of my outstanding performance, should I see something?"

"At least you should have doubts. But you have never asked about this, so I guess you might have had an answer long ago. So you made all kinds of efforts..." Bailey blinked at Gong Hao: "You did nothing wrong. You should know that even if you admit it to me, you don't have to be afraid that I will expose you."

Gong Hao looked around carefully: "What else do you know?"

Bailey smiled proudly: "It's true. Don't worry, I don't need to know more. Look, if you give us benefits, we will also help you. As long as you don't make a big leak, we won't care what you will do and what you want to do."

"Very good, I will give you more good things next month, but you and your friends are better off controlling your mouth. Thank you by the way for your reminder, I think I understand something very important."

Yes, Gong Hao finally understood why Pier was always lukewarm with his attitude towards him? Why did he never believe in himself? Damn, I should have realized this long ago. He thought.

Neil said that as the teenagers work here deepens and their minds gradually mature as they grow older, there are always some smart people who will find the problems.

Gong Hao's performance on Purgatory Island was so outstanding that everyone believed he was a genius.

There is no reason why such a genius turned a blind eye to what happened in front of him and had no doubt at all. In private, there were even servants discussing where the servants were taken away, but in this group of private discussions, Gong Hao always did not participate.

However, it turns out that this is not a good way to stay away from suspicion.

This is exactly why Pier does not trust him.

The reason why they dare to continue to use themselves now is that on the one hand, they need their own excellent work, and on the other hand, they are confident that they can control themselves.

It seems that I have to be more careful in the future. Should I intentionally or unintentionally reveal some doubts about all this?

But will it be too blatant to do that? Will it make things rigid by making it clear?

No, you can't make it clear. Some things are much better to understand in your heart than to make it clear.

So what should I do? Maybe I should first figure out how many people doubt themselves because of this, and besides Pierre, are there anyone else. I will first find out this point before I can make a decision.

Gong Hao fell into deep thought.

Bailey patted his shoulder: "Okay, don't think about this. Complete our deal first. This is the information you want about Hines and Pier. As for Lancelot, it's strange that this person seems very mysterious. We can't find any situation about him. But don't worry, we will continue to search. I have a friend who works in the Legal Affairs Office. Their noses have always been very sensible, and there is no information they can't find."

"How powerful is it?"

"Even the most ordinary hunting dogs can find everything they want to find based on some clues. There are also some masters with great skills who can restore all the events that the item has experienced over a period of time through a certain item. They call it time countercurrent. Oh, it's terrible to think about it. If it falls into the hands of those people, you can't keep any secrets."

Gong Hao's heart twitched slightly: "There aren't many such people, right?"

"Of course, the use of time countercurrent consumes a lot and has many restrictions. For example, they can only go back to the time within one day, and at least three mages with more than three black robes need to consume all their mana at one time, and they also need some very expensive media... Unless it is some big cases, they cannot use it at will. As long as my friend from the Law and Political Department is willing to help, there is absolutely no problem."

Gong Hao reached out to take the information, but Bailey grabbed his hand. He reminded him seriously: "I hope you understand that it costs a lot of money whether it is the information you have already found or the news you have not yet found out."

"You will get rewards, far higher than your investment." Gong Hao replied calmly.

Gong Hao replied that he took out a box casually, which was filled with things that Bailey and the others needed to make a lot of money.

Then he took out a list: "Realistically speaking, I should give you free treatment. But I'm sorry I still want you to help me find these goods and the information I need. That's very important to me. Without them, I can't make greater contributions and can't gain the trust of the master further. Since you know, you should understand that everything I do is just to survive better. I can't resist the entire empire, right?"

"Of course, I will get the stuff for you. I understand your needs as the cost of making materials, not the cost of processing manuals, right?" Bailey replied with a smile.

Then he glanced at the list and couldn't help but frown: "Magic Book? Do you want a magic book about soul magic? What do you want that thing? You must know that it's a taboo."

"Not for the alchemist. Master Hines has been studying the production of flesh and blood puppets, and I'm involved. I think to solve this problem, soul magic is needed, so I need your help. If I can help Master Hines solve this problem, I think the master will let me get into those alchemy issues that he hasn't solved. Do you know what those top-level technologies mean? "

"More money!" Bailey's eyes lit up.

"That's right."

"Well, I'll get you a copy, although that's not easy."

"See you next month."

"Don't leave a drink?"

"No Bailey, you have a big impact on me today. I'm going to go back and do some preparations."

"No matter what, Shue, you are a genius. My friends and I admire you very much. We hope you can survive and live a healthy life."
