"Hello, I am Meg," Meg said with a smile.
Romeo and Juliet's gazes landed on Meg, who was wearing a chef's uniform and holding a thick cleaver. They were horrified. Is this fellow the head chef?!
Romeo tried his best to protect Juliet behind him as he loudly said to Meg, "If you want to take her lungs, take mine. My lungs are big enough. Don't touch her!"
Juliet calmed down very quickly. She looked into Meg's eyes, and said, "If you want to take them, then take them together. Didn't you say 'husband and wife lung slice'? We are a couple."
"It was indeed my idea to make the 'husband and wife lung slice' and bring the two of you here, but I'm not really going to take your lungs." Meg went forward and slashed the ropes around the two of them. He kept his cleaver, and took two steps back with a smile. "Actually, we are good people."
Romeo and Juliet were stunned when the ropes around them were suddenly released. They looked at Meg, who kept his cleaver behind him with a smile. He indeed didn't look like a brutal butcher, so they couldn't make up their minds all of a sudden.
"Then … Then what do you want to do?" Romeo asked Meg as he held the weak Juliet in his arms. After what happened during this period, he would no longer trust others easily. He was worried that this was another one of Gary's schemes.
Meg smiled, and said, "I am Meg, the owner and head chef of Mamy's in Chaos City. These are the service staff of the restaurant. We are Connie's friends. She was chased to Chaos City previously, and then became a member of our restaurant by chance. We were entrusted by her to come and save you. "
"Connie! Connie is not dead! "Romeo looked at Meg in surprise.
"Yes, she's not dead." Meg nodded.
"You said that you are friends with Connie. Do you have proof? If you're a chef from Chaos City, what makes you think you can save us? " Juliet looked at Mag warily. His words were full of loopholes. If Gary wanted to humiliate them again before he died, she would rather die a quick and clean death.
"You'll know when you see this." Meg took out a Shadow Recording Stone from his pocket. He swiped his finger across the surface of the stone, and a virtual image appeared in front of everyone. It was Connie.
"I am Connie, my brother, and my friends and family. If you see this bearded man holding the photostone, please believe what he says. We are trying our best to rescue you, please listen to his orders." The image was not long, and after that, the image disappeared.
"It's Connie." Romeo looked at Juliet and confirmed.
Meg smiled, and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. I think you know very well whether Gary has the need to tease you at this point in time. If he still wanted to get any information from you, he wouldn't have waited until the day of the gallows."
Juliet stood up with Romeo's help, and looked at Meg apologetically as she said, "I'm sorry. Too many things have happened recently, so we can't trust strangers easily."
"You're welcome, Madam." Meg nodded slightly.
"May I ask where Connie is now? Is her situation alright? "Romeo asked anxiously.
"We have lost contact with Connie for now, but she will definitely appear at the conferring ceremony tonight." Meg shook his head. He still wanted to know where Connie had gone.
"That won't do. She's just a little girl. If she appears at the conferring ceremony, she will definitely be caught by Gary and hanged together with Ferdinand." Romeo shook his head and stomped his feet anxiously.
Juliet also looked at Meg, and asked, "How can we contact Connie? Today's conferring ceremony will definitely be very dangerous. We can't let her take the risk. The chief only left behind a son and a daughter, and we can't save Ferdinand. If Connie is caught too, then the Falk Tribe will completely fall into Gary's hands. "
"I can't contact Connie now, either. Her motive for coming back is to save Ferdinand. She won't give up just like that." Meg shook his head. He looked at the two people who were very concerned, and continued, "If the two of you want to leave this place safely, please remember what I'm going to say next."
Romeo and Juliet saw that Meg had no intention of continuing the discussion. They hesitated for a while, but still chose to nod.
"I used the excuse of retrieving the lungs to get them to bring the two of you here, and made the 'husband and wife lung slice' the last dish to buy some time. There will definitely be chaos at tonight's conferring ceremony, and we will take the opportunity to bring the two of you away.
However, in order to make the other party believe that I brought them here for the purpose of obtaining ingredients, the two of you will have to lie on that table cooperatively later. You can rest during the process, and I will tell you what to do when needed, "Meg said with a serious expression.
The two of them nodded.
"But …" Romeo still wanted to say something.
"The walls have ears. Please try to remain silent during this process. You don't have to worry about the conferring ceremony." Meg directly interrupted Romeo, and turned to walk toward the stove.
"Perhaps they already have a plan. We should remain silent," Juliet said as she tugged at Romeo's sleeve gently.
"Mm-hmm." Romeo nodded upon hearing that. Although he had a million questions in his heart, he held them back and didn't continue asking.
…
"Brother, why did Father send the two of us to attend this conferring ceremony? Didn't he look down on that treacherous kingslayer Gary?" Habeng asked perplexedly as he followed behind Haga.
"Lower your voice, lest you cause trouble." Haga looked around, and lowered his voice as he said, "The Aug Tribe likes to fight. Previously, the chief of the Falk Tribe, Isaiah, maintained the balance. Now that Gary has taken over, Father sent us to see which side he is on so that our tribe can prepare."
"Then, which side are we on?" Habeng asked as he scratched his head.
"In this 100 years of peace, our tribe has been recuperating, and our tribesmen have been living in peace. Peace is the best. Once a war breaks out, a small tribe like ours will be cannon fodder. Those big tribes won't care about us. "Haga shook his head.
"That's true. War is not interesting at all." Habeng nodded. He thought for a while, and smilingly said, "I heard that a chef from Chaos City is in charge of this banquet. Do you think it's Mr. Mak?"
"Little Boss … Will you come?" Haga revealed a simple and honest smile.
"I think so. Mr. Mak never leaves Little Boss behind when he goes out," Habeng said with a smile. "Seems like we are going to have a good meal tonight."
