To be honest, Old Man Gambosi's request at this time wasn't harsh at all. It could even be said to be quite reasonable.
Therefore, Patwin clenched his teeth and said, "Don't worry.
"Fine!"
Then he simply raised his hands, walked towards the corridor, and said loudly, "Outside, I'm the one who started this.
"You guys outside, today's incident was caused by me. I won't say anything about right or wrong. I'll take responsibility for what I did. If you want to rush in and kill us, then kill me!"
"If you don't want to do that, then I think we can have a good talk."
Shan Yang said.
"We have no enmity with your company. We don't want to kill you at all. We don't even mind giving you a few hundred star coins as a tip. It's you who asked for more than 1 million star coins … This is a price we can't afford, so we're going to take action."
"We only want to do one thing from the beginning. Hand over slave No. 279, and we'll leave right away!"
Patwin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that. For him, this was really the best result, so he immediately turned back to discuss with Old Man Gambosi.
Both of them felt that this slave number 279 should have an amazing secret on him. That was why such a powerful guy would make such a big fuss over it. Such a secret was really tempting ….
However, Patwin saw the bitterness in Old Man Gambosi's eyes. If he wanted to obtain this secret, he might have to die here.
No matter how good a thing is, if you have to exchange it with your life, you have to consider the price-performance ratio …
Soon, a guy with heavy shackles on his body who looked like he was having a hard time walking was brought in.
His clothes were ragged and his body emitted an unpleasant stench.
Not only that, this guy's hair had not been washed for a long time. It was completely messy, knotted, and stuck together. Even his eyes were covered. When he was brought in, he was still playing with his fingers and giggling from time to time.
Patwin held an iron chain in his hand and led this guy over. He said expressionlessly, "No. 279, he's No. 279.
"He is number 279. At that time, your friend bought him for 78 star coins. You don't have to worry about us cheating you because the slave collar on his neck can only be opened by the card in your hand."
"We've been in this business for more than 20 years. We won't ruin our reputation for you."
Looking at No. 279 in front of him, Fang Linyan didn't rush to reach out to pick it up, but he simply said,
"Wait, I want to know something. You should be very good at managing slaves, right? You should have a lot of experience in this. "
"However, I find it hard to imagine how No.279 could have caused such a huge loss to you. In fact, I think it would be quite difficult for him to even walk alone. "
An awkward expression appeared on Patwin's face.
"I don't know. After your friend bought him, we improved his living conditions. After all, the real right to use him now belongs to the customer."
"Although the relevant disclaimer agreement will be signed in advance, it is not a pleasant thing to let the slave that the customer spent money to auction die here."
"And at that moment, he seized an opportunity and almost succeeded in escaping. Moreover, in the process of escaping, he brought us a lot of losses because this guy actually released the rest of the slaves and planned to escape together."
"However, the most ironic scene appeared at this time. Among the slaves he released, 3 actually escaped successfully, but he fainted directly under the wall."
Hearing Patwin's words, Fang Linyan suddenly said with interest,
"Please wait a minute, I want to know a detail here, that is, did No. 279 faint inside or outside the wall?"
Patwin sighed and said,
"Outside the wall, yes, he had already obtained freedom at that time, but he fainted there directly. He didn't wake up until 3 hours after being caught by us."
"After this incident, I think he's a guy who's good at disguising himself. At the same time, in order to punish him, I gave him something special. For example, I put some feces in his food. But he ate it with relish …"
"Ai, so I don't know if he is pretending to be stupid or really stupid now. Anyway, I don't think a person can disguise to this extent."
After hearing his words, Fang Linyan nodded and said,
"Okay, understood."
Then Fang Linyan nodded to Goat. Goat shrugged and walked forward,
"The purpose of us coming here is just to take back our friend's slave. We don't intend to offend you, so this 10,000 yuan is our compensation. I hope this matter will end here."
"Whether you want to be a passerby or an enemy, it's up to you."
As he said, he directly put 10,000 yuan on the ground.
Gambosi's father also knew at this time that he had encountered a dragon that he couldn't afford to provoke. He was also a businessman, so he simply motioned Patwin to collect the money.
After receiving the money, the atmosphere between the two sides also eased a lot, so Fang Linyan continued to strike while the iron was hot,
"I'll pay another 10,000 yuan to buy a piece of information."
Gambosi's father was also an old fox in the underworld. As soon as he heard Fang Linyan's words, he said,
"Is it about how No. 279 became a slave? Okay, no problem! "
"No. 279 was brought back by Patwin at that time. You can ask him. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
Patwin nodded and brought Fang Linyan and the other two to the office, and said,
"3 months ago, I heard that a new batch of female slaves arrived in the starport. It is said that they are mutated human beings that were refined from the laboratory. They are very similar to the legendary dark elves. This thing is an out-and-out new product. Needless to say, it must be a hot commodity in the slave trading market."
"So I didn't wait for the auction. I went directly to the seller overnight. As a result, we talked for a long time at that time, and we finally made this deal …"
"Then when I left the seller's spaceship, I saw this guy lying in the slave cage, rolling his eyes and drooling. He was biting his fingernails like a fool."
"As a professional buyer, I found that there was a circle of white marks at the ends of this guy's middle fingers. This shows that he may have the habit of wearing rings on the middle fingers of both hands. This habit is the hobby of some aristocratic families!"
"Just based on this, I think it's still okay to bet with 100 yuan … It turns out that you guys came to him with such a big fuss, which means that he is not simple. Then there's still no problem with my vision! It's just that we haven't been able to dig out the value of him. "
Fang Linyan nodded slightly and said, "It's a wonderful story.
"It's a very interesting story. Come, let's toast to your eyesight and finally thank you for your information."
***
After the 3 left with slave No. 279, the first thing they did was not to interrogate him, but to let this guy take a bath and take care of his personal hygiene.
This guy seemed very tame. He didn't move when he was taking a bath. He didn't even pick up the soap when it was lost.
At this time, Fang Linyan also saw his true face. In fact, he was a man who looked very ordinary with European ancestry. He had a high nose bridge, an aquiline nose, and flaxen pupils.
His age was about 30 years old, but his eyes were a little dull. En, to put it bluntly, it was the kind of look of a person with cerebral palsy.
Goat tried to talk to him, but his only reaction was to chuckle.
Things like taking a bath were easy to deal with. He could just find a place to take a shower with the tap, but no hairdresser was willing to take care of his messy hair.
When Vulture was about to volunteer to shave his head, Goat said that it didn't need to be so troublesome.
Because his ability to control the flame at this time was already very strong. He directly stroked it gently with his hand, and the guy's greasy messy hair was directly burned. After he washed up and changed into a new set of clothes, he seemed to have been reborn.
But at this time, Goat told Fang Linyan in the team channel,
"I think I know why this guy became like this."
After speaking, he pointed at No. 279's head.
Fang Linyan looked carefully, and his face suddenly changed. It turned out that there was a terrifying scar on the bald head of No. 279! The length of this scar even reached dozens of centimeters! It was a circumcision around the head.
Obviously, he had experienced a terrifying craniotomy before. This was probably the reason why No. 279 usually looked like a fool.
Although No. 279 was found at this time, the hidden main mission had not been completed. Obviously, the key point to complete the mission had not been triggered yet.
And this key point was actually obvious. That was the slave collar on his neck.
