Chapter 171 The smart little guy

Under Xerxes' threat, Phoenix finally barely shook hands with Malone.

"Xerxes, can we go back?"

After shaking hands with Malone, Phoenix quickly pulled back his hand and turned around and said to Xerxes, the deputy captain of the Stein family, who was standing behind him.

"Phoenix... Master! Don't you think that just reconciled with Master Ma Long, you made such a request for farewell, is it a shame, polite?"

Xerxes's answer was obviously no. His eyes looked at Phoenix very coldly, as if he was looking at a disobedient pet.

In fact, in Xerxes' eyes, Phoenix is ​​indeed a disobedient pet. Although the pet's owner is not him but his owner Gug Stein, this does not prevent Xerxes from calling Phoenix with a downward attitude because he is very clear about the character of his owner Gug Stein.

"It's okay. Mr. Stein is probably like me. He feels very restrained and uncomfortable when he is a guest. He wants to go home immediately after seeing his master."

Of course, Malone would not care about any rude or rude issues. Of course, he said this only out of politeness. He did not think Xerxes would agree to Phoenix Stein's request.

"But, I want, I want..."

Phoenix covered his stomach, but he stopped talking.

"What do you want?"

Xerxes, whose eyebrows stood up, asked a question.

"Do you care what I want to do, anyway, I want to go back now, is there any problem?!"

Phoenix, who was covering his stomach, suddenly stood up, and he seemed to be angry and embarrassed.

"What do you think?" Xerxes showed a sarcastic look, and then added: "Master Phoenix, you seem to need to think about the situation on the family side again."

As soon as this said, Phoenix's face changed drastically. He stopped making noise but gritted his teeth and bowed to Ma Long, saying, "I'm sorry, please forgive my unreasonable trouble. I think it's better to continue to be a guest in Fanhua Garden. Please Mr. Liszt, please make sure to agree to my...request."

"It's okay."

Ma Long smiled, how could he care about this level of noisy?

Phoenix sat back, while Xerxes bowed to Ma Long and said it several times. Sorry and rude, so Ma Long naturally said it had nothing to do with it.

Then in the next time, there was nothing wrong with Phoenix, and the guest of honor who had a cordial conversation with Malone became Xerxes.

"Master Ma Long, I heard that something happened to your courtyard yesterday?"

What Xerxes used to open up the topic was the explosion that happened in the Fanhua Garden yesterday, although he referred to it with a very light "small accident".

"Thank you for your concern. There was indeed a small accident, but fortunately, no deaths were caused."

Since the other party said it was a small accident, Malone would certainly not say too much, even though he knew very well that Xerxes was definitely 100% aware that it was Moussa-Mein's laboratory that exploded.

"Didn't the death of the person...?"

Xerxes showed a slightly unexpected expression, because in his perception, it doesn't matter how many people die, but the precious experimental equipment and experimental results are important, so he was a little uncomfortable and continued to talk about it.

Just as Malone guessed, Xerxes was indeed very clear that the explosion occurred was the Arisa Ulysses laboratory that was said to have developed virtual fighting technology, screen projection technology, Little Ba Wang virtual fighter, mid-range server, etc., which was more than people imagined.

In fact, some of the gifts carefully prepared by Xerxes were specially purchased for testing items - it was not too difficult to get a partial list of experimental items for Arisa-Ulysses laboratory.

Malone was not surprised at Xerxes' surprise at all. He had never seen a member of the big family who truly felt that everyone was equal so far.

Even Sheriff Bernard, who is very close to Malone, doesn't care much about the life or death of irrelevant people. Even Evena, who looked at the weak, had acquiesced to the vampire banker Thors, who killed and silenced people to hide the true identity of "Old Paladin Carnegie"...

Therefore, the concept of people-oriented does not exist in this other world.

"Haha, I am a little weird in character. I can't stand someone dying."

Ma Long explained with a smile.

“…I can understand.”

Looking at Malone smiling, Xerxes thought of the part he had seen in the information that Ma Long's aunt died and Ma Long was unconscious for three days after the funeral.

Xerxes felt that he had accidentally discovered the weaknesses that could be exploited in Malone's personality.

Of course, at least on the surface, Xerxes showed nothing, and he even continued to say in a complimentary tone: "Master Ma Long, your heart is really a role model kind."

"Over-worthy, I just don't like death."

Ma Long shook his head, and this time he said nothing false truth.

"Master Ma Long, actually, after hearing about this accident, Councillor Guge immediately ordered me to buy some experimental items and then come to greet you, Master Ma Long, but because Master Phoenix also needs to apologize to Master Ma Long, it has been delayed until now..."

Xerxes decided not to go around the circle anymore, and he said what he wanted to say just now - just as he said, his current identity is the "messenger" who came to explore Marlon's words in place of Gug Stein. Phoenix came to apologize but was just a cover for his superficial reason.

If the contact is successful and the released kindness is accepted by Ma Long, then everyone will naturally be happy.

If the contact fails and Malone shows hostility towards the Stein family, then Guge Stein will not become the target of Malone's grudge. Only Phoenix, who is already planning to give up, is the only one who is damaged again.

Of course, Xerxes no longer needs to consider the preparation for the failed contact, because Malone did not show any hostility at all, and could even be called taking the initiative to show kindness.

In this case, Xerxes felt that it would be better to express the purpose of this coming more clearly, so that we can know more clearly what kind of ideas Malone is holding on to his master, Councillor Gug Stein - whether to stay away from him or be willing to further contact and cooperate.

Xerxes almost had a hint of eating fruits. Malone understood without any obstacles. Although he did not think that the old fox named Gug Stein would ask Xerxes to buy experimental items as soon as possible and then greet him in his flower garden.

Malone's judgment was that Gug Stein clearly because Wiki Rand had a deep contact with him and signed a contract to establish the Rand Cinema, so he hurriedly sent Xerxes to find out his words.

But this is not a bad thing, and it is better to stay in touch than to be hostile to each other, right?

"Captain Xerxes Guard, please bring me thanks to Councillor Stein!" So, Malone chose to accept the kindness released by Xerxes and offered to invite him: "Captain Xerxes Guard, please tell me that I would like to sincerely invite Councillor Stein to visit my simple and flowery courtyard when it is convenient."

Smart little guy!

As soon as Ma Long took the initiative to invite him, Xerxes couldn't help but exclaimed Ma Long's intelligence in his heart. In his opinion, Ma Long's performance was perfect, and he did better than anyone who was thirty years old!

It is worthy of being a guy who has no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests!

"I will definitely tell you on my behalf. I think Councillor Stein will come happily. The magical virtual fighting and movies that Mr. Marlon invented, Councillor Stein is actually very interested..."

With a good impression of Malone, Xerxes continued to pass on the words slightly obscurely. The meaning of his words was obviously to suggest that Gug Stein was very willing to cooperate with Malone in commercial cooperation.

"If Stein is interested, then I am willing to fully open these things to Stein for Stein. If Stein is willing... we can even go to the Little Box Manufacturing Factory to see."

Malone gave a positive answer.

Then next, we will finalize the best conversation when Gug Stein comes to visit.

After discussing the specific time of Gug Stein's visit to Fanhua Garden, when Xerxes was about to get up to say goodbye, Phoenix, who had been silent for a long time, had a problem.

"Ah-my stomach hurts so much!" Phoenix covered his stomach, his face full of poop and his face was about to burst out: "Mr. Liszt, where is the toilet?! Ah, I must have eaten something I shouldn't have eaten in the morning..."

Suddenly having a diarrhea?

A look of doubt flashed through Malone's eyes. Referring to the winking of Phoenix when they first met, Malone instinctively felt that Phoenix might not have had a stomach problem.

"plz follow me……"

After thinking a little in his mind, Ma Long stood up and made a gesture of inviting him.

Forget it, I will fulfill your wish first and see what you want to do.

Thinking of this, Malone turned his head and said to Xerxes: "Captain Xerxes Guard, please wait a little. I seem to need to fulfill my duties as the owner of the manor."

While speaking, Malone glanced at Phoenix Stein, intentionally or unintentionally. You want to help this deputy captain Xerxes?

"It's okay, I can wait! I'm sorry, I've caused trouble for you, Mr. Ma Long..."

Xerxes nodded at Malone, then glanced at Phoenix with a noticeable disgust because he had already smelled the fresh... stinky smell.

What a useless guy, he was so embarrassing when he was a guest!

How could the master think of supporting such a useless guy to fight for power in the family?
