Chapter 98 Thriller Story
Taverns have always been unwelcome to Li Yu, who likes to urge people to go straight to the main line and are impatient.
Because according to the statistics of this etiquette robot that likes to tell stories, the patience of guests is often positively correlated with their ability to pay.
An listener who is willing to enjoy stories and explore details will not only order a few more drinks when listening to stories, but also often tip more for the story-teller in order to listen to more jokes.
Unfortunately, Li Yu is obviously not a high-quality customer, and his distinctive dangerous characteristics also make the robot give up the plot of a plot.
The robot said: "We were all secretly betting that the middle-aged man who obviously came to the wrong place would eventually lie in a garbage dump with a bruised face until dawn... But that time we all misunderstood. He got a [Xia Yuan Coin] from somewhere. Guest, you should know that in Xiajing, people who hold [Xia Yuan Coin] are blessed by the Xia family, and no matter how bold the person is, he dares not have any inappropriate thoughts about the person who holds the currency."
Of course, Li Yu knew this common sense of Xia Jing very well. He nodded and signaled the robot to continue talking.
"When I saw that Xia Yuan coin, everyone in the bar had their thoughts, and I just wanted to serve him out as soon as possible. After all, people holding Xia Yuan coin often mean trouble. According to statistics, these people... Well, to put it short, he obviously came prepared. I don't know where he heard the incision, but in short, he found me, told me a cut, and then asked me to contact him some powerful and reliable mercenaries to complete a revenge mission."
The robot said, and sighed again with a change of tone, deliberately exaggerating his helplessness.
"Listen, isn't this a difficult person? I'm just a bartender. Where can I find him a strong and reliable mercenary? Among the people entering and leaving this bar, the most powerful one is probably a group of drunken gangsters. But he holds Xia Yuan coins and knows the cut here. I can't refuse, so I have to do my best to meet his request. By chance, he really bumped into the right person that day."
Speaking of this, the robot stretched forward his slender neck with limited length, causing the telescopic spring to make a harsh squeak, as if it was about to be unable to support its huge head.
And the flat metal face almost touched Li Yu's face.
"You have heard of the name 'Surf Bird'?"
Li Yu held back his sarcastic smile and tapped his fingers a little harder in front of the bar.
The robot quickly shrank his head and said, "Sorry, I'm so stupid. How could a person as experienced as you have never heard of Zhuque's reputation? The guest wanted to find mercenaries, and a few Zhuque's small leaders came to the bar. Are you a coincidence? In the entire Qianxing system, there is probably no one who is more picky than Zhuque. As long as you give money, you can do anything. Not to mention revenge on others, even if you attack some of the upper class, Zhuque's people will not hesitate."
Hearing this sentence, Li Yu could hardly help laughing out loud.
"Later, I opened a private room for them in the basement, and they went to discuss the conditions themselves. I don't know what they talked about. About two hours later, they walked out of the room and went their separate ways. Well, that's all I know..."
Before the robot could finish his words, Li Yu's fingers slammed down.
There was a shallow fingerprint on the thick solid wood bar.
Leaving fingerprints on the hardwood with flesh and blood can naturally easily cut off the robot's slender neck. Li Yu's deterrence immediately caused the internal voltage of the robot to be chaotic.
"Okay OK, I admit I omitted some content... As you might expect, there is indeed a wiretap device we installed in the private room - after all, if someone discusses something too ruthless in our bar and is tracked down by the above afterwards, we will never end up knowing anything."
Li Yu sneered, not commenting on this powerless whitewashing argument, but urging the other party to tell the truth with an increasingly stern look.
The robot said helplessly: "Customer, it's not that I deliberately wanted to hide it, but the fewer people I heard that day, the better. I also recommend that you stop here."
Li Yu didn't say anything, but just took out an exquisitely carved commemorative coin from his pocket.
The moment he saw the commemorative coin, the robot made an involuntary buzzing sound, and it was obvious that its processor was moaning due to the abnormal voltage.
Anyone with basic judgment knows how valuable the Qiankun commemorative coin in Li Yu's hand, which was issued 300 years ago and only circulated in a very small range, is especially meaningful. Even if it is considered from the economic value alone, it is enough to buy the treasure of the entire bar.
So the robot did not hesitate anymore and told the shocking secret without hesitation.
"That middle-aged man should be a member of the Nan family, to be precise, a traitor to the Nan family. He hired the pirates of Zhuque to assassinate his little master, the eldest lady of the Nan family, Nan Wuyou! Because once Nan Wuyou dies, the Nan family will be extinct in a short period of time. Just establishing the next legal heir is enough for the family to have a long civil strife."
"During this period... the families that had long coveted Nanming capital can conquer the city and territories. In the end, the middle-aged man claimed to be serving the Ma family and also promoted the propaganda operation had received the acquiescence of the board of directors, so Zhuque could be confident and boldly ambushed and assassinated the eldest lady of the Nan family. Hehe, this kind of thing is indeed only done by the four major families."
Li Yu didn't talk to him, but just stared at the robot coldly.
The robot defended: "These are all true! I'm not talking nonsense. How dare I talk casually? I could hear it clearly at that time. Nan Wuyou's name appeared many times in their conversation. The middle-aged man even designed the ambush location and tactics for Suzaku, and he was definitely prepared!"
Li Yu asked, "Where is the monitoring record?"
"All the records at that time were destroyed by the boss. After all, the risk of staying that kind of thing was too great. It was really not something that our small bar could afford... This is true. If you don't believe it, I can't do anything."
The robot said, trying to use movable parts with limited faces to show a begging expression.
Li Yu pondered for a while, bounced up his fingers, and threw the valuable Qiankun commemorative coin into the storage box on the robot's chest.
