Chapter 225 Asking questions knowingly
Zengjun also wiped the apple with his hand and took a bite, chewing the sweet apple flesh in his mouth while looking at Star.
Star continues to work on the new Apple. For Star now, all he needs to do is keep it stable.
“By the way, my name is Zengjun,” Zengjun said after taking another bite. After all, only when you show sincerity first will others feel that you are trustworthy.
When Sta heard Zengjun's name, the long stick in his hand stopped for a moment, but he soon continued to swing it.
As for why Sta stopped the long stick in his hand when he heard Zengjun's name, was it because he was looking for a target? But he was already very skilled, so this was unlikely to be the reason.
The reason why Star was stunned for a moment was actually one of the reasons for his current situation, or even a big reason.
Yes, Star's current misery is related to Zengjun, but this relationship is difficult to define, just like he is one of the murderers, but he didn't do it. For Star, this is the feeling.
"Oh, hello," Star responded. Now Star also understood, 'One of my enemies is right in front of me, but I can't expose myself yet. What if they just have the same name?'
Zengjun looked up at the long stick in Sta's hand. At this time, the long stick was blocked again by Sta's skillful technique.
"You can eat this by yourself, consider it my treat," Zengjun said as he looked at the apple that was being slowly taken away.
After hearing this, Star put the apple in his left hand and said, "You said it." So Star put down the stick first. As for the fruits that Pingyi wanted, Star could get them later.
Of course, the owner will definitely scold Star for not working and being lazy, but Star also has a way to deal with it: Isn't this taking care of the customers' emotions?
Yes, Sta can use the time he spends with Zengjun to do whatever he wants to avoid this time of desertion.
Star placed the apple in front of his clothes and wiped it. After Star felt it was clean, he took a big bite. Apples were his favorite food when he was in the palace.
Ahem, of course, he was already tired of eating apples at this moment, because he was looking after the apple tree, and occasionally he would pick some apples to reward himself, and often...
However, in order to perfect his image as a child from a poor family in Songjun's eyes, he needs to show off his acting skills.
Zengjun looked at what Sta did. How should he put it? Zengjun was also wondering if he was wrong. Maybe the man in front of him who called himself Taka really didn't lie to him?
"Do you want to go out?" Zengjun looked at Sta and asked a soul-searching question. Without thinking too much, Sta would most likely say yes, I want to, or something like that.
In this way, Zengjun can also use this opportunity to let him pay off his debt and make Sta more sincere.
This is a game between two old foxes.
"Of course I did. Do you want to buy me?" Sta replied. Sta's meaning was very clear. He wanted to leave. At the same time, the meaning of "buy" was used by Sta to suppress Zengjun's suspicion.
"How much do you owe?" Zengjun asked. The amount owed can be used to measure the degree of conditions to be proposed. If Sta owes a lot, it will be beneficial for Zengjun.
At the same time, if Star was going to lie about how much he owed, Zengjun could ask the store owner to verify. In this case, it would be unwise for Star to lie, so Star could only report the truth, because this time he could not evade the answer and could not lie.
"About four or five hundred gold," Star answered vaguely, and then gave an explanation, "The store charges interest, so..." This sentence was used to settle the account, and Zengjun couldn't find fault with it.
After hearing this, Songjun looked at Star and said, "I can help you pay it off, but you have to tell me the truth about who you are."
Star looked at Zengjun and nodded, "Okay, my name is Tara."
After hearing this, Zengjun looked at Sta's face. Although Sta's name seemed to be chosen on the spur of the moment, there was nothing wrong with it. After all, the name came out of his mouth spontaneously.
Zengjun looked at Sta. Obviously, he felt that Sta must be lying to him this time. As for why, it was very simple. If Taka was his real name, then he would not say any other name, unless he was saying a fake name.
If Taka is not his real name, then something must have happened to him that forced him to hide his name. This at least proves that Star is definitely not an ordinary person.
Maybe what Sta said was not wrong. After all, if he replied to Taka again, Zengjun would already think that something was wrong with him. If he lied again, Zengjun would most likely turn around and leave.
Therefore, he cannot be Taka, and at the same time he cannot be Sta. After all, if Zengjun came to arrest him, then exposing himself as Sta would only bring trouble to himself.
That's why Star said another fake name she had just thought of, Tara.
Therefore, Sta had no other good idea, and he gave another fake name to see if Zengjun would really believe it and then take him away.
"No, although your reaction is quick, it is this reaction that betrays you," Zengjun said while looking at Sta. A normal yet abnormal logic was expressed by Zengjun.
After hearing this, Sita also ate his apple and looked at Zengjun with an expression that said, "You're overthinking it."
After all, Zengjun couldn't just say he was Star based on his feelings.
"You are the wanted Star, right?" Zeng Jun asked directly, "But don't worry, I am not interested in the unknown reward of your bounty."
When Sita saw that his lie was directly guessed by Zengjun, he was not panicked. After all, he still felt that Zengjun was scaring him. However, from Zengjun's second sentence, Sita could hear that Zengjun also had a request from him.
"Yes, I am Sta." Sta revealed his real name after thinking about it. After all, Zengjun didn't seem to be short of gold coins, so it was unlikely that he would be caught and taken to the castle to claim the prize.
"Hello, I can see that you are very alert." Zeng Jun felt relieved. After all, all those prefixes in Sta were used to cover up his true situation.
"So, Mr. Zengjun, what is your purpose in looking for me?" Sta asked straight to the point. After all, the situation was clear in front of him that he was either here to help him or to harm him. Could it be that Zengjun had the time to correct his lies just for fun?
"It's easier to talk to smart people." Zengjun first made Sta understand that he had no ill intentions.
"It's like this, I have some things that I can only get the answers to by entering the palace. As the second prince, you are a good reason for me to go in," Zeng Jun said frankly, revealing his purpose.
He just wanted to use Sta to enter the palace to find the answer that Zengjun wanted to know. Zengjun's meaning was also very clear, which was to use Sta to enter the palace. To translate it further, it meant to let Sta cooperate with Zengjun and let Zengjun enter the palace to achieve one of Zengjun's goals.
