Chapter 139, conditions

On the second floor of the teaching building, the sound of a door being pushed open was heard in the quiet corridor.

Utsunomiya Shuo walked out of the classroom and closed the door behind him.

"Your Highness, I need your help with something - hm?"

After finishing the call with the man suspected to be Herzog, even though Utsunomiya Shuo was extremely panicked inside, he still looked normal on the surface.

To be honest, if it really comes down to a fight to the death, he is not really afraid of Herzog.

It would only take a few weights to kill him.

But the follow-up reaction to this result will be serious.

the first.

Killing people with weights, and killing them easily, even if the other party is a bad guy... Once this precedent is set, I'm afraid no one will take human life seriously anymore.

He is no longer the reckless boy with a head full of passion.

He really doesn't mind this kind of thing.

second.

After wasting their leverage on Herzog, Lu Mingze and Odin might take action against him.

As I said, having a gun in your hand and not using it are two different things.

Once the bullet in the gun is fired, it can never be retrieved.

It is like the launch of the first nuclear bomb. No matter where this nuclear bomb is launched, a nuclear war will break out.

Even if Zhuo could kill Herzog with the smallest cost, that is, a weight...afterwards, he would have to use a second weight to intimidate and tell those dragon kings that his ability was still there.

Even so!

This matter may not be over yet!
Even if he used the second weight to gain a brief peace, wouldn't the dragons be suspicious? Wouldn't they try to test whether he still had any remaining abilities and continue testing him? Would he be patient? Or would he throw out the last weight? Patience would definitely not work, but if he threw out the weight, who could be sure that this temptation would not continue?

Today I ceded five cities, tomorrow I ceded ten cities, and then I could sleep peacefully for one night. When I got up and looked around, the Qin army was coming again. However, the land of the princes was limited, and the tyrannical Qin was insatiable. The more they paid tribute, the more they invaded. Therefore, the victory or defeat of the strong and the weak was decided without fighting.

third.

Will we be able to have peace if we kill Herzog?
Is this a rule? Who made the rule?

Putting aside Herzog's cunning and fear of death, a man of his status could have arranged a little backup plan, such as sending someone to kill Zhuo's parents...

What to do then?
He kills people here and he also arranges to kill his own relatives there. What should I do?
……

The common man became angry and blood spattered five steps forward.

This is not a compliment.

Pifu means a fool without brains. In modern terms, it is called idiot.

Zhuo may not have any other advantages, but at least he is not an idiot who only cares about showing off.

Of course, he could also use a weight, or even more... to exchange for the safety of himself and his loved ones.

and then.

I no longer have any bargaining chips in my hands. I will cede five cities today, ten cities tomorrow, and then I will gain one night...

This is not a solution at all.

But this matter is not unsolvable. After all, Herzog is not the Dragon King. He is just a human with power and part of the script...

The adult world is not just about fighting and killing. Only children can solve problems in that way.

Of course, Zhuo didn't think that his little tricks could fool those with ulterior motives, but he had to give it a try after all.

If it really doesn't work, there's no rush to go all in.

Is he in a hurry?

Are you in a hurry?

With a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, Utsunomiya Shuo walked to the door, reached out to open the classroom door, and cast inquiring eyes to both sides.

However, the corridor was already empty.

"...where are the people?"

For a moment, Zhuo was startled instinctively.

The thought that those who claim to be gods have used some high-sounding means to destroy my bridges after crossing the river came to my mind.

How could he subconsciously regard Ling as someone on his side? She is on Lu Mingze's side! She has her own position, and she always has. If this matter really has traces of Lu Mingze, Ling will definitely cooperate with him.

But soon, Utsunomiya Shuo calmed down again.

Zhuo didn't want to make excuses for himself. He did make malicious speculations about Ling... But after calming down and thinking about everything that had happened to him during this period of time, he felt that he might be able to trust Ling a little.

trust.

"where?"

With a subtle frown, Utsunomiya Shuo looked along the corridor in the east and west directions and looked around.

I also looked at what I had learned about Zero's personality during this period... She probably wouldn't enter a classroom because it would be difficult to find her; nor would she go to the rooftop because it would be meaningless.

So you go down first?
To show that you won't eavesdrop on his phone calls?

Utsunomiya Shuo had a strange look on his face and walked quickly towards the stairwell.

But when he got closer, before he could go down the stairs, he saw the blonde loli sitting on the rising steps of the stairwell.

Then, the blonde and blue-eyed little girl slowly raised her head.

...and he actually hid so far away.

"Isn't the ground dirty, Your Highness?"

Although a little surprised, Zhuo still had a smile on his face.

It's no secret that Romanov is a germaphobe. Not to mention sitting in the stairwell, she even dislikes sitting on public seats.

Ling seemed not to want to pay attention to him. Sanwu Loli first blinked her blue eyes, then stared at him silently without saying a word.

Zhuo could roughly understand why Ling was like this.

But there are more important things now.

Utsunomiya Zhuo pursed his lips, organized his words in his mind, and said after a little consideration: "How was your rest? I'm in some trouble right now, and I need to go somewhere. If possible, can you help me?"

If Utsunomiya Shuo remembered correctly, Zero's menstrual period should be during these days.

This is also one of the reasons why Zero did not participate in sports.

Of course, the main reason was that she was unwilling to participate.

Although Zhuo said this, he did not tell Ling what had happened before, nor did he say where he was going.

There's no particular reason, I just don't want Zero to get involved.

Last time it was zero who showed up uninvited.

If Zero is allowed to get involved this time, will the nanny group get involved? Does this count as a favor I owe to Lu Mingze?

He doesn't want this.

What was somewhat unexpected to Zhuo was that after he asked this question, Sanwu Loli first stood up and straightened her skirt, then nodded very straightforwardly.

"That's great, let's set off now without further delay." Seeing this, Utsunomiya Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief.

A powerful bodyguard is now available.

He can take the risk and go all in, but his parents can't, and he needs Zero to protect his parents.

Izu is quite a bit farther than Shinjuku, but you can still get there before dark, so that's fine.

Now, the conditions are met.

"I'll send my home address to your phone later. Please go and protect my parents temporarily." As he said that, Utsunomiya Shuo reached into his pocket.
