Chapter 117: Subconsciousness

  When a woman in a purple long dress walked in with a swaying gait, the commotion inside had already ended, and several people were sitting there calmly. Although Xanier felt very embarrassed just now, her face still wore a mask, and no one could see anything unusual about her.

  "You are..." Han Jin smiled and stood up, his gaze sweeping over the woman and her guards behind her. The woman in front was very elegant and refined, dressed appropriately, but her guards were a bit strange, each wearing heavy armor, with iron masks covering their helmets, completely dressed as knights, but now they weren't in battle, there was no need to wear those masks, it would make people feel uncomfortable.

  "Are you Lord Raito?" The woman said in a stiff tone, "I am Gloria, the granddaughter of Woodrow, the Chief Security Officer of Bait City."

  Han Jin was stunned, and just as he was in a daze, the woman named Gloria continued: "Three days ago, your cavalry attacked our family's merchant caravan. Today I came here to ask you for an explanation!"

  After hearing the woman's words, Han Jin couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous. The plot he had designed wasn't supposed to go like this! With Woodrow's cunning, his son Xia Zuo should also know some of the depth, sending someone to inquire about the news was normal, but it was impossible for them to come up and lay everything out in the open from the start. At least, Boge was controlled very tightly, so the other side had no way of knowing whether Boge had confessed or how much he had revealed, so during the conversation, they would try their best to probe.

  He replaced Leizhe, just because he was worried that Leizhe would reveal his true intentions. His plan was to pretend to be weak and compromise with the newcomer, no matter how far the conversation went. He absolutely could not mention what Boge had already confessed. In this way, Woodrow would think that his own plan had not been exposed, and he would not easily take overly drastic measures.

  He's not afraid of clever people, but he's afraid of fools. This scene is a bit bizarre. Han Jin still wants to help the other party hide it, but the other party comes up and says everything clearly. The degree of openness is second only to Borg's confession, and in some ways even less than Borg. Borg refused to reveal his origins at first, and only squeezed out a little after being tortured. This woman is good, she calls herself a negotiator, but her first move is to strip herself naked. Doesn't she know that there's such a thing as embarrassment in the world? Now Han Jin can't pretend to be stupid anymore, it would be too obvious!

  Not only Han Jin was stunned, but also Lei Zhe and Xian Ni Er, Sa Suo and others were all stunned. Lei Zhe even glanced at Han Jin, with such an opponent, what's the point of being nervous?!

  She saw herself taking the lead. She had already stunned everyone present. The woman's eyes flashed with a stern color, and she said slowly: "And... my brother Bog should have been caught by you guys, right? I want to see him! Hehe... if you haven't hurt him, you will be lucky. If you've hurt him, then wait for your punishment! Don't blame me for not warning you. My grandfather, Woodro, the Chief of Security, is a tenth-level great magician!"

  Han Jin looked at Xian Ni Er and others, Xian Ni Er and others were also looking at him. He finally understood that the so-called dragon begets dragon, phoenix begets phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes. This kind of bloodline theory is absolutely wrong! Not to mention that Woodro is not yet the lord, even if he really controlled the entire Bait Alliance, he would have to consider the internal contradictions within the ruling class, at least he couldn't run into the military camp and go crazy?

  "Shameless!" Kiri exclaimed suddenly. This can be understood, as Woodrow had taken away the wealth that belonged to Morgan's consortium, and she naturally hated him to the extreme.

  "What did you say?" The Gloria woman's eyebrows rose. She shouted loudly: "Say it again!"

  "A wild chicken. Frantically shaking its tail feathers. Trying to show off those gorgeous plumage. Guess what? This is when everyone will see..." Mo Xinkou winked.

  "What did you see?" Sasuke asked curiously.

  "Asshole!" Mo Xinkai's face was expressionless.

  Everyone burst into laughter. Even Han Jin and Xian Ni'er couldn't help themselves, laughing together in a heap. The woman from Gloria's side turned pale with rage, her face alternating between green and white. Finally, she said coldly: "It seems you are determined to oppose us!"

  "Come here. Don't mention Woodrow. Not even your father, Xia Zuo, knows about it?" Han Jin said with a sympathetic tone. He believed that even if Xia Zuo was an extremely foolish young master, he wouldn't do something so stupid. As for the woman in front of him, her foolishness had reached an extent that was beyond comprehension. In the past, he would often hear people say that someone was dumber than a pig. He used to think it was just an exaggeration. Now he realized that this was occasionally true.

  That woman named Gloria, however, did not pay attention to Han's approach. Her eyes looked very venomous, only scanning Mo Xingke and Sasou who were laughing non-stop, saying word by word: "You will pay the price for this!" She tried to make every word she said deeply ingrained in the enemy's heart, even deep into their soul, so her tone was extremely slow, her lips opening and closing with great force, with a look of gritted teeth.

  "It really does look like it." Lei Zhe said suddenly.

  His words were incomprehensible, but following Leiz's line of sight, he saw Grueria's bright red small mouth, and the loud laughter erupted again. Mosenko laughed so hard that he couldn't catch his breath, and even punched Leiz with force. Meanwhile, Xanier and Keli thought these men were too rude, and this joke was a bit vulgar, but they couldn't help but laugh either.

  The woman named Gloria was furious, shaking all over her body, but Han Jin was a bit skeptical, wondering if the other party had really understood what they were laughing at, or maybe she was just angry because of their impolite laughter.

  "I hope you know what you've done." Gloria's voice also trembled: "You have provoked a true powerhouse! I guarantee that the anger of 10th-tier Grand Magister Woodrow is something you cannot withstand!!" She dared to come here, relying solely on having a 10th-tier Grand Magister backing her; if Han Jin and the others didn't take her seriously, her mouth would really become...

  "Then go back and tell Mr. Woodrow that we hope to see his anger as soon as possible, before the Blood Knight Gerald arrives. He can only vent his anger from other channels." Sasou said with a smile. He was very dissatisfied with the other party's threat of a 10th-level professional strongman, so he brought up Gerald, but these few people seemed to have committed a taboo, and since Mo Xinko scolded them, they had to mention that thing in less than three sentences.

  As soon as the words left Gerald's mouth, several guards behind Gloria stiffened. As Gerald was the first fierce general under Disemark, his killings were extremely heavy, and it was said that people's names and tree shadows would be afraid of him, but Gloria sneered: "Blood Knight Gerald? What is he?"

  Han Jin sighed and stood up. Although his temper had always been good, he really couldn't tolerate this kind of brainless woman with a big chest.

  "You come, I'll go rest." Han Jin said to Lei Zhe.

  "You said it was you who would talk, so you should be the one talking, man. A man's word is his bond." Lei Zhe refused to say more.

  "Ugh...... my stomach hurts from laughing." Mo Xing Ke lazily stood up. Then his body suddenly shot forward, the giant sword in his hand slashing towards Gloria's neck like lightning.

  Moxinke's attack was launched too suddenly. Groolia and her guards didn't react until Moxinke's long sword was already placed on Groolia's neck. Those guards then drew their swords, shouting: "What are you doing? Let go of our mistress!" "Bastard..."

  Mo Xinke didn't say a word. He just turned his head to look at Han Jin, who was silent for a moment before snapping his fingers. Sasou waved his hand and a sharp blade suddenly emerged from the ground, attacking the guardian. The guardian quickly retreated to avoid the attack, not daring to counterattack. He coldly said: "Lord Leizhe, we came here to negotiate! If it goes well, we'll continue talking; if not, we'll leave. Is this behavior of yours not too despicable?!"

  Han Jin remained silent for a long time before finally speaking up and saying, "You can leave now."

  Mo Xinke sheathed his giant sword and resumed his lazy demeanor. The guards hastily surrounded Grolria, backing away step by step until they reached the door. Han Jin smiled: "Don't waste your energy, if I really wanted to harm you, it wouldn't matter even if you crawled on the ground."

  Several guards cast a cold glance at Jin and retreated outside.

  "What? Don't want to make things difficult for these few fools?" Mo Xinkai laughed and said.

  "Raphael, what's wrong? Your expression doesn't look right!" Lei Zhe was quite meticulous.

  "No matter what you do, being just right is the most correct. Doing too much often brings trouble." Han Jin smiled and said: "Have you ever seen such a foolish woman?"

  "No, you mean that woman..."

  "There is something called the subconscious." Han Jin said slowly: "For example, you are walking on the street, a horse carriage suddenly rushes towards you, or it's your loved ones and friends, you will use your fastest speed to dodge, to protect, even after you've done it, you don't know what you just did. If the horse carriage rushed towards a stranger, or someone you don't care about, your reaction speed will be much slower. And this is beyond human control, that's why it's called the subconscious."

  Lei Zhe and Xian Ni'er were listening intently to Han Jin's explanation, what Han Jin said was something they had never heard of before, even if they had similar experiences, they absolutely couldn't form professional systematic knowledge.

  "When Mosike went to attack that woman, their reaction speed was too slow. It wasn't until Sasou released his Earth Spike that their reactions were considered qualified." Han Jin paused: "So..."

  "So what?" Mo Xinkuo asked curiously.

  "It's time for us to take action."

  "But... " Xanthe hesitated for a moment: "If there really is something fishy going on here, what's their goal? Are they trying to get that woman to spill all the secrets to us?"

  "A secret?" Han Jin smiled, how could a detective not understand reasoning? When the reasoning reached a bottleneck, he would often come up with as many hypotheses as possible to find inspiration: "If they already knew everything that happened here, is it still a secret?"

  "You say there's a traitor in the military camp?" Lang Ning suddenly stood up.

  "How long has Rudolf been here? How is it possible that he doesn't have anyone backing him up?" Lutz said in a cold tone.
