EP 1237. Big Toad
With the credit points to open the way, Shi Xiaolei and Stark finally got what they wanted and met the person behind the Technical Academy.
Fat and greasy body, bulging head, big and scary black eyes, fingers with suction cups... that is to say, the white skin color is not suitable. Judging from other physical features, this guy looks really good. It looks like a giant toad magnified countless times.
"Hmm..." After staring at Shi Xiaolei and Stark for a while, the big toad waved his right hand and signaled the PT customer who had led them over to step back. He said to the two of them: "If I guessed correctly, you should be I came here specifically for a certain purpose. The purchase in the store just now was actually just a cover, right? "
Unexpectedly, the other party was so sharp. Stark and Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but look at each other.
There was a bit of surprise in their eyes, and at the same time, by looking at each other this time, the two quickly agreed on their opinions.
"Now that you've seen it..." Smiling, Stark took two steps forward, fetched a chair from the side, crossed his legs and sat down opposite the big toad: "Then Let's get straight to the point. Sir, uh, ma'am? Sorry, I've never seen a foreigner like you before. I hope you don't mind if I use the wrong name. Anyway, we want to invite you. Do me a favor..."
The act of acting on one's own initiative, the gender offense in the words, and the vague condescension when mentioning the word 'foreign race'... Before he finished the sentence, he had already touched several thunderbolts.
As expected of Stark, almost no one can match him in terms of his ability to 'offend' others.
Anyone with a slightly shallower city will be angered by him.
"Let him speak." A trace of determination flashed across his face. The big toad turned his head slightly and raised his hand to stop the female guard beside him who was trying to step forward.
The atmosphere has definitely changed.
But Stark seemed not to notice and continued to talk to himself: "We came to the Land of Nothingness to meet the collector. I heard that you have a way to get in touch with him? Make an offer. How many credits do you need to help make a recommendation? "
"..." He did not respond immediately, but stared at Shi Xiaolei and Stark for more than ten seconds.
It wasn't until a look of impatience showed on Stark's face that the big toad finally said: "Haha, as long as I can make money, I will never refuse. But..."
"But what?"
"I have to weigh the gains and losses first. If I do this for you, it will bring losses to me, and the commission you give is not enough to make up for this loss..." At this point, the big toad raised his hand to Then he made a move and took a pipe from the maid on the other side. After the maid lit it, he took a sip.
Exhaling a smoke ring, the big toad continued: "I will not do a loss-making business. Therefore, before agreeing to your request, I must first find out what you want to do."
The Collector is the controller of the Land of Nothingness. If I introduce you to him without asking for information, and then you piss him off, then I, who make a living on this land, will inevitably be affected by you. .
He didn't say it in such detail, but the big toad had already expressed his meaning very clearly.
"Don't worry, we don't want to cause trouble, and we don't like looking for trouble." Stark smiled, turned to look at Shi Xiaolei: "Man, can you tell me?"
Not feeling the need to hide anything, Shi Xiaolei nodded.
With permission, Stark looked at the big toad again: "That's right, we have a friend who has some health problems. I heard that the Collector may have a way to solve her troubles, so..."
"...I don't understand." The big toad's expression showed some obvious confusion: "As far as I know, that adult is not good at treating diseases and saving people. How could you think of asking him for help?"
"It's not an ordinary disease." Shi Xiaolei took over the conversation and further explained: "Our friend's physical problem is because she encountered an accident and fused with some kind of strange object by chance. Although she can't cure diseases and save people, , but when it comes to dealing with oddities, I don’t think anyone is more experienced than The Collector.”
"That's it." The big toad finally understood: "I think that the adult may have heard of that strange object and knows how to control it. That's why you came to the door, hoping that he can help remove that strange object from you. Take it out of your friend’s body.”
"Bingo." Stark snapped his fingers: "That's a good summary."
Here we go again, this compliment once again carries a condescending tone.
Hearing it in my ears, I feel depressed in my heart. Shi Xiaolei subconsciously raised his gaze and looked at the female guard behind Big Toad.
'Um? ’
This didn't matter, Shi Xiaolei discovered a slightly strange detail - her right shoulder moved slightly a few times... It didn't look like a natural movement when adjusting her posture, but more like she was moving her forearm with purpose. . It felt as if the big toad's broad body was blocking the sight of the two of them, and his right hand was making small movements behind the big toad's back.
"If that's the case, I wouldn't mind introducing you to it." Before Shi Xiaolei could take a closer look, the female guard's right shoulder stopped, and the big toad spoke again: "However, I have to confirm first whether what you just said is true. It’s true. In addition, we need to have a good discussion about the price.”
"It's easy to talk about the introduction fee and so on." Stark responded without hesitation, and with a backhand gesture, he snapped his fingers in front of Shi Xiaolei, who had not sat down yet: "Locke, pay for it."
Interrupted by Stark, Shi Xiaolei subconsciously looked away: "Uh, oh."
Taking the card handed over by Shi Xiaolei, Stark waved it in his hand: "Money is not an issue. As for the verification you just mentioned... tell me, what kind of process is it? Let me tell you in advance, we don't I will bring that friend here for you to check. After all, this is a place where you do skin care business, and she happens to be a woman. It doesn’t matter to us, it’s not appropriate for her to come here.”
"It's easy, you just need to pay an extra door-to-door fee." The big toad smiled, raised his hand and waved behind him: "She will be responsible for examining your friend."
Following his movements, the female guard took two steps forward with a cold face, and spoke for the first time: "Where do you live? If it's too far away, I won't go."
"Well, this arrangement is quite good."
"It's not far, just two streets away. Do you know that hotel called 'Sweet Dream'? We're staying there."
