Chapter 4877 Silence

“What did he say?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“He… he said… he saw what was in my heart. I was so scared that I was even worse than a turtle hiding in its shell, but… he still felt that if he was afraid of the blue-armored man, it would be… it would be a disgrace to the people of Tiecang.” The man said, “He also said… he insisted that it was abnormal to be afraid of a blue-armored man like him, which was… he was asking for fear.”

The Gray Hand asked, “How do you feel after hearing this?”

“I think he saw through my thoughts again.” The man said, “It’s really… too scary.”

The Gray Hand asked, “Did you say anything to him?”

“I said it.” said the man.

“What did you say?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I said… I’m not afraid of him… and I also said… If I was really afraid of him, I would… not talk to him like that.” said the man.

“What about him? How did he react?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“He said… whether to be afraid or not is one thing, and… whether to say it or not is another thing.” said the man.

“What did you say?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I say…if I were really scared…then I would…not say it.” said the man.

The Gray Hand asked, “Did he say anything to you again?”

“He said… he said… it’s not up to me whether to say it or not.” said the man.

The Gray Hand Man asked again, “How do you feel when you hear this?”

“At that time… I felt like I was… being controlled by him… I felt that things were… terrible… very terrible.” said the man.

The Gray Hand Man asked, “At that moment, did you completely believe what he said?”

“I can’t say I completely believe it, but…but I can’t say I don’t believe it either,” the man said.

The Gray Hand asked again, “Did you tell him anything?”

“I told him… he could say whatever he wanted… that I was being controlled, but I could also say… that I wasn’t being controlled.” said the man.

The Gray Hand asked, “When you say that, do you believe it yourself?”

“I don’t actually believe that I’m not being controlled.” The man said. “After you said that, what did the other party say?” the Gray Hand Man asked.

“The other party… the other party told me… he knew… Although I myself didn’t believe what I said, I… I still insisted.” said the man.

“What do you think after hearing this?” asked the man with gray hands.

“My mind was blank at that time.” said the man.

“You don’t know what to say for a moment?” asked the man with gray hands.

“Yes.” said the man.

“So… nothing was said?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“That’s right,” the man said. “I… I didn’t say anything.”

The Gray Hand asked again, “Did he force you to tell me?”

“This time… you didn’t force me to say it.” said the man.

“What happened then?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Then… he asked me to guess what he just said… something was enough.” said the man.

“Did you guess?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Still haven’t guessed.” said the man.

“At this point, are you still afraid of saying the wrong thing?” asked the man with gray hands.

“Yes,” said the man.

Gray Hand Man said, “What was your reaction then?”

“I just… said nothing. I just… just remained… silent.” said the man.

The Gray Hand asked again: “Did the other party force you?”

“Yes.” The man said, “He told me… to answer his question quickly.”
