363. An eye for an eye
Bain was sitting leisurely in his office enjoying coffee.
If nothing else happens, someone will give him a report on the incident right away.
He likes the feeling of having everything in hand.
Standing in front of the desk was the owner of the factory. He was very reservedly waiting for the young man's questions.
Bain said:
"How about it, Mr. Bernard? How did Hevin react after receiving the news that the investment failed?"
Although Bernard was very dissatisfied with Bain's arrogance at this time, he also knew that people were born different, and he could do nothing but accept this reality.
After all, I made a lot of money with his help.
Bernard said:
"He didn't give me any reply, as if the matter was completely irrelevant. I suspect that he may not have received the letter, or he may not have checked the letter for the time being."
Bain frowned slightly:
"How could a professional investor not care about the letters sent to him? Why didn't you tell me earlier."
Bernard said:
"I think he will come to me in a few days. There is no need to be in such a hurry."
Bain shook his head:
"You could have informed him in person. Forget it, the matter has been done anyway, and this part of the operation is not indispensable. If Mr. Hevin didn't happen to notice your notice, it means that even if he knew that he had invested
Even if you lose money, you can still remain calm.
"Even if the money does not have a great impact on him, it is impossible for an investor to have no reaction after the investment fails. That only proves that he has extraordinary psychological quality and may be aware that this is a
It’s a trap, and we’re investigating your situation now.”
Bernard said:
"It's unlikely, he's just an investor..."
Bain pointed his finger far away:
"Don't underestimate anyone, especially those engaged in venture capital. Even if I don't understand this industry at all, I can guess that you must have excellent psychological quality and keen insight to do it well."
Bernard kept his mouth shut. It wasn't his fault anyway.
Bain plans to find someone to investigate Hevin's past to ensure that his next plan is foolproof.
Bain continued:
"They should have succeeded over there, and they will soon..."
Dong Dong.
There was a knock on the door.
Bain was a little surprised:
"It's a lot faster than I thought."
Bernard dragged his fat body neatly to the door and opened it gently.
Standing outside the door are Viper and Silverhand.
Bain felt something was wrong, they shouldn't have come here in person.
boom.
The fat body fell straight to the ground.
If Bain doesn't know that Viper and the others are here for him at this moment, then he would be a fool.
The young man drew out the long sword he carried:
"I have finally become an official rider..."
Silverhand easily drew his sword and knocked away the long sword from Bain's hand. Viper stepped onto the desk in two steps and punched Bain in the face.
Before Bain's consciousness completely sank into darkness, he vaguely heard a sentence.
"Tooth for tooth..."
After Darkness.
A faint tingling sensation came from Bain's wrist.
Bain closed his eyes, pretending to be unconscious and feeling everything around him.
Then came the hard, flat ground beneath him, and the coldness climbed up his naked back, and everything on his body was removed except his pants.
Including his own long sword and the magic props given to him by his father.
If he guessed correctly, this was the place where he originally planned to imprison Hala, a basement located in the east of the city.
But what exactly happened? Why did Silverhand and Viper betray him? Aren't they afraid of death? He is the earl's son, and such transgressive behavior will prevent them from leaving Wharton's West End alive.
"...Hand for hand, foot for foot."
Bain opened his eyes, looked at Viper, and said hoarsely:
"Why?"
Viper repeated:
"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot..."
Silverhand walked into the basement with a whip:
"Bane, we will torture you, torture you severely, and then kill you."
Bain asked again:
"Why?"
Silverhand showed an excited smile and replied:
"Eye for an Eye."
Bain said:
"Something wrong happened to you. Calm down. We can still talk. We don't need to lose both sides."
Viper looked at Bain and said casually:
"No, we are guilty, and our sins are serious, so it doesn't matter even if we die, but you are different. You were born noble, and your life is much more valuable than ours..."
Bain forced himself to calm down and let their words echo in his mind.
‘An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot’
They won't kill themselves, even if they claim to.
Because this was the order he gave them at the beginning, to make Ha La lose hope of survival, but they would not really kill Ha La, they would only torture her severely.
Now it's his turn.
But he never wanted to go through all this. He was very happy when he gave the order, but if he had to endure it, he would definitely scream like crazy.
He knew very well that he was by no means a strong-willed guy.
But now it seems that Silverhand and Viper still retain a certain level of intelligence. It's not that they can't understand everything that happened, but why do they insist on doing this.
Maybe they received a more deadly threat, such as killing all their families or something, but no matter what, their behavior was too weird.
Bain prefers that they suffered some kind of mental interference.
This also shows that Hola has some kind of weird mysterious power to protect her. Such a delicate operation is likely to come from a wizard, and it is definitely not simple for a person who can hire a wizard to be his daughter's bodyguard.
Even if Hevin is not a supernatural being, he is far more dangerous than he seems.
Bain has made up his mind to give up any behavior that may offend Heven.
A qualified bad guy must know when to back down. Although Bain has not fully understood what happened, he knows that since he planned to deal with Hala, many accidents have happened, and now this weird thing has happened.
matter.
There is no inevitable conflict between him and Hevin. It is not shameful to retreat, but it is what smart people do.
Although he may not be unable to deal with Hewen, if he continues like this, the effort and price will be out of proportion.
What is happening now is also Hevin's warning. He reminds himself through the words "eye for an eye" that he wants to suffer some pain for himself, but will not kill him, which is also a warning to him.
If Hevin was really strong enough to ignore everything, he would naturally disappear from this world quietly.
