I! Cleaner! - Chapter 54 Trump Card
(already edited)
Aren’t you talking nonsense? Who the hell would want to sell their life to you?
Although I really want to refuse like this, the other party’s ability is to forcefully buy. The operation when he pulled me over just now is that he can even buy things like “distance”, and I have no ability to refuse at all.
Looking at the toad in front of him with a rather scary smile, Leon had no choice but to face the other person’s dense compound eyes, and questioned bravely:
“Selling my life to you… is not impossible, but the price you gave me is too low!”
“oh?”
After hearing Leon’s answer, the golden toad, who originally just wanted to tease this human and chat with his “old friend”, tilted his head and asked with a smile:
“Then how much do you think you are worth?”
“…”
I think I’m priceless, okay? No matter how much you pay, I don’t want to sell it!
But although this was true, looking at the golden toad’s teasing eyes, Leon knew that it was probably useless to say this. In the end, he swallowed the words back and said from a different angle:
“I think…many things cannot be measured by money.”
“So you not only question my judgment of value, but you also question my understanding of the world?”
After hearing Leon’s words, the golden toad, which had always been quite gentle, suddenly turned cold. His huge compound eyes were slightly concave, and the centers of countless small spheres were all aimed at Leon, staring at him closely and saying almost every word:
“Money can do anything.”
“Since the first shell that was used as currency conquered mankind with its sparkle and beauty, currency and the wealth it represents have become the goals pursued by all intelligent life!
Even not just your small kingdom, down to the fish-men in the deepest part of the boundless sea, up to the aborigines on the back of the moon, every place where intelligent life exists is inseparable from the omnipotent money.
Only money is the cornerstone for the operation of this world! And your insignificant life is just the most pitiful thing it can exchange for! “
“Oh… forget it, what’s the use of me talking to you about this?”
After looking at Leon, who did not immediately refute, but was still thinking about how to reply, the golden toad couldn’t help but shook his head, and said in a waning mood:
“Even if you are a dependent chosen by the great devil, in the final analysis, you are just a servant. You don’t need to understand these things at all. It is enough to accept the control honestly… Come on! Let me evaluate your insignificant life. price!”
Following the golden toad’s words, the countless Lyons reflected in his eyeballs trembled, and then quickly replaced with countless messy new pictures.
The innocent and ignorant childhood, the happy childhood at the knees of the parents, the crying after losing the parents, and then the vast empty darkness.
After a large area of empty darkness passed, he spent more than half a year lingering on the bed with a high fever. Because a serious illness wiped out most of the family’s savings, he began to run around desperately for money.
Painting the walls of the villa under the scorching sun, supporting the emaciated body on the dock, holding a two-meter-long special scrubbing pole, and laboriously scrubbing the ferry that was blackened by the chimney.
When the rivers froze and ships stopped running, they took over the abandoned newsstands on the roadside. In the cold winter, they hunkered down to sell newspapers, occasionally raising their shoes to disguise their age, and sneaked into various temporary factories with loose management, doing things that did not require a resume. Handyman, earning a meager change…
It is a pity that after more than two years of hard work, the poor family in the picture has not become richer, but has become increasingly empty. The girl who occasionally flashes her face gradually becomes pale, and her cough becomes more and more serious. The two children, whose faces could not be seen clearly, also began to lose weight…
“A boring life.”
After watching more than five thousand days and nights in less than one second, the golden toad shook his head and was about to “cut off” the screen when he suddenly caught a glimpse of bright red hair.
? ! ! !
That woman? !
After hurriedly bulging his eyes and interrupting the subsequent scene in time, the golden toad’s expression sank slightly, turned to look at the sheep head in the shopping bag, and said with disbelief:
“Damn it! You actually cooperated with the people from the Cleanup Bureau?”
“Go, go, go! What are you talking about?”
After hearing Golden Toad’s question, Black Goat, who was too embarrassed to come out to meet acquaintances, could no longer pretend.
I saw it trying hard to stick out its tongue, licking the shopping bag twice, revealing its angry eyes, glaring at the mature toad in front of it and saying:
“We are not cooperating with the people from the Cleanup Bureau! We are just settling there temporarily, and then giving them a little bit of our abilities at the cost of accepting several extremely evil sacrifices on a regular basis.”
“You’re not even cooperating…are you hired by them? Or…you won’t completely fall into the hands of the Cleanup Bureau and become their lackey, right?”
“…”
“You are the lackey!”
The stabbed black goat instantly broke through his defenses and cursed and roared:
“We’re just staying there temporarily! We’re staying temporarily, do you understand? Are the holes on both sides of your bastard’s head blocked? Damn it! That means we haven’t recovered yet, you damn toad. Let’s wait!”
Hey, lackey!
After glancing at the black goat with disdain and ignoring its furious curses, the golden toad turned his head back, stared at Leon with two huge compound eyes, and asked in a cold voice:
“So…you are from the Cleanup Bureau?”
“That’s right!”
Listening to the meaning of the golden toad’s words, knowing that it was probably the sworn enemy of the Cleanup Bureau, Leon simply took the risk, directly picked up the black goat, shook it, raised his head and actively provoked:
“Although you look down on it now, when you fall into our hands and are made into an abnormality, I guarantee that your end will be ten times more miserable than it!”
? ? ?
no? Just talk about it properly. Can you give me an example of Mao?
When the black goat suddenly cursed an octave higher in pitch, the golden toad did not get angry. Instead, he narrowed his two huge compound eyes, carefully observed Leon’s expression, and then tilted his head in surprise.
“You want to piss me off?”
After noticing Leon’s suddenly tense muscles, the huge golden toad grinned and grabbed a large handful of gold wheels from the side. While stacking these gold wheels in front of him, he speculated leisurely:
“Human, you don’t seem to think you can run away, but you don’t seem to be ready to be killed. You even dare to challenge me with words… This is very interesting.
If I’m not wrong, you should have a powerful enough trump card, but you can’t control it, or it can only be triggered after being attacked? “
? ! ! !
Got seen through again?
Looking at the toad who guessed his situation with just a pair of eyes, Leon’s breathing suddenly stagnated slightly, and he couldn’t help but think of the evaluation given to him by the red-haired director.
Could it be that… I am indeed a very understanding person?
“Haha, it seems I guessed it right.”
After looking at the doubts that could not be concealed in Leon’s eyes, the golden toad’s mouth couldn’t help but grin wider and wider, and then he nodded at the golden wheels that had piled up in front of him, and said with a joking face:
“I’m sorry, I don’t like to attack others rudely with my body. Instead, I like to directly buy the lives I want to harvest through fair and reasonable transactions. I’m afraid your trump card won’t be of much use.
Come, take these 30,000 gold wheels and give me everything you have. For your boring life, this is the most generous price I can give. “
