In this matter, Culolo, as an outsider, was in control of the overall situation.
The elders gave Culolo a time limit, which was equivalent to the time for Law to escape. It can be understood that the elders gave Culolo face.
From this point of view, it can be seen that the friendship between Culolo and the elders is not shallow. It can also be seen that Culolo's death was not serious enough to make the elders angry, otherwise, they would not give Culolo a time limit.
However, regardless of the size of the matter, Law must be responsible for this matter. This is the result, the difference lies in the process.
Machi, Woking, and Nobunaga, the three people, Culolo must be protected. As for Law, he also fought for a chance to survive. Whether Law can survive or not is none of his business, although he thinks that Law's chances of survival are not big.
This was Culolo's idea before coming to the church. Now, he changed his mind.
"What do you mean?" Machi frowned. She heard the certainty in Culolo's tone and was a little relieved. She didn't know where Culolo's basis was.
At this time, the door was knocked and the conversation stopped.
Except for Culolo, the expressions of the others present changed slightly. After all, through Culolo's words, the elders of East Street became a sword hanging over their heads and could be cut down at any time.
"Come in." Culolo said lightly.
As soon as the voice fell, the door opened, but it was Parknoda with short blond hair and two wooden crutches in her hands.
"Did it affect you?" Parknoda glanced at the three people in the room.
"No." Machi shook her head.
Parknoda nodded slightly, walked into the room and closed the door, then handed the crutches in her hand to Machi. The latter was a little surprised, thanked her and took the crutches with one hand.
With the crutches to support her body, Machi finally didn't have to maintain that strange posture and was free from Law's hands.
Bringing the crutches was not something that Culolo told her in advance, but Parknoda's own behavior. From this point of view, Parknoda's care can be seen.
Law glanced at the people gathered in the room. Culolo, Machi, Nobunaga, Woking, and Parknoda, these are the future five core members of the Phantom Squadron, standing in the same room with him at this time.
Compared to this matter, he was considering whether to continue to stay in Meteor Street.
His eyes turned slightly and fell on the hand of bad omen that Culolo deliberately held in his hand, and said, "You said that the elders of East Street like collecting treasures and antiques, you want me to use the hand of bad omen in exchange for his forgiveness?"
After hearing Law's words, he nodded and said, "You're right...."
The hand of bad omen was the key thing that Culolo was sure that the elders would not pursue this matter.
Of course, if he wasn't very interested in Law now, even if he realized the value of the hand of bad omen in the church just now, he would have faced Law with a quiet and handsome posture and would not have deliberately said so much.
Carefully exploring a person is like peeling off the skin of an onion layer by layer. Culolo enjoys this process.
He thinks that Law is worth his careful exploration, so he doesn't want Law to leave Meteor Street.
"You saved Machi and the others, so I bought you four hours of time. This is a thank you, but as long as you give the hand of bad omen to the elders, he will not pursue this matter." Culolo explained.
"Great, Law, you don't have to go." Machi looked at Law with a happy face.
Law was silent. At this moment, he thought of a lot.
Machi only saw the surface, and most of them are now indebted to Culolo. Presumably, after this incident, Machi and Woking will trust Culolo more.
It's been about fifteen minutes since he saw Culolo.
In this short period of contact, it can be seen that Culolo's actions are kind, but in fact, they are not.
If Culolo had no intention of stealing his ability in the church just now, then Law must have owed Culolo a favor.
Knowing that the elders will pursue this matter, even if he gets four hours of time, the capital that can escape the pursuit is the power of telekinesis, but Culolo wants to wait for the opportunity to steal the power of telekinesis before informing him to escape, which is equivalent to depriving him of the chance to live.
Although he doesn't know why Culolo changed his mind temporarily, Law can't let go of this matter alone.
Because he wants it, he can easily ignore the safety of others and even indirectly take away their lives.
Even if Culolo's actions are because of the values created by the special environment of Meteor Street, Law can't understand.
However, Law doesn't know that Culolo has only recently developed 'Thief's Mastery', and he is the first object of Culolo's experiment.
"Machi, this is three million Ring." Law slowly suppressed the thoughts in his head and looked at Machi, who was happy, and said in a joking tone.
"And then?" Machi stared at Law.
For some reason, Law felt the pressure out of thin air, his smile became slightly awkward, and he smiled bitterly: "There is no then."
Machi nodded slightly, then looked back at Culolo, and said calmly: "If this piece of wood can solve this problem, then Culolo, you should send the wood to the elders as soon as possible."
"This is called the hand of bad omen."
Law whispered a reminder, but Machi ignored it directly.
Culolo looked at Law and said: "I can't go alone, Law has to go with me."
Facing Culolo's gaze, Law sighed softly, and then said seriously: "I'd better run away."
To be honest, Law's intention to continue to stay in Meteor Street has become very weak. After all, it doesn't feel good to be controlled by others, and he still needs an important period of development to strengthen his telekinesis in a safe and free environment.
Compared to giving the hand of bad omen to the elders in exchange for safety, it is better to leave it to Machi to improve his living conditions.
"No." Machi rejected directly.
"Since this broken piece of wood can be used to solve this problem, why run away?" Woking looked at Law with a puzzled face.
Culolo and Paknoda did not speak.
"Broken piece of wood …"
Law rolled his eyes and said seriously: "Well, even if it's a broken piece of wood, it's worth three million Ring. Think about it, what can this money be used for?"
"Used for what?" Woking was like an obedient child, answering honestly.
Law's mouth twitched slightly, patted his forehead, and said helplessly: "It's enough for you to eat meat every day until you throw up, and look at Machi's skinny body, three bowls of rice soup a day, it's obvious that he's seriously undernourished. With this money, he can improve. This is related to Machi's confidence in the future."
Speaking of this, Law was startled, it seems that … he said something wrong.
In the room, Nobunaga was still sleeping soundly.
Machi, Woking, Culolo, and Paknoda looked at Law quietly. From the words just now, it seemed that something terrible had happened.
The most frightening thing was that the air suddenly became quiet …
Law laughed dryly, then looked carefully at Machi, the latter frowned slightly, so Law took a step back subconsciously.
"So it was you."
