Chapter 6269 (Six Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty Nine)

“Especially about what happened to me, right?” asked the Brown Hand.

“No, there’s nothing special about it. What you said is meaningful.” said the man with gray hands.

“How come what I say makes sense?” said the brown-handed man, “Isn’t this contradictory?”

“No contradiction.” The Gray Hand said, “Compared to your reaction just now, this is not a contradiction at all.”

“What was my reaction just now?” asked the brown-handed man.

“Whether your tone just now reveals any reluctance or not depends on what I think,” said the man with gray hands.

“What’s the conflict?” asked the brown-handed man.

“Before that, you asked me if I was willing to be given an ambiguous answer, and I said of course I wasn’t willing, as it wasn’t good for my work.” The Gray Hand said, “Then you said very clearly that you weren’t willing either, but you didn’t single me out at that time. Then you said whether your tone revealed your unwillingness depended on what I thought. Does that mean that your tone didn’t reveal your unwillingness?”

The brown-handed man smiled and said, “I just said that it depends on what you think. Didn’t that mean I didn’t show my unwillingness?”

The Gray Hand said, “You are denying it on purpose, right?”

“Okay, now that you put it that way, it means that I didn’t reveal any reluctance in my tone at that time.” said the man with brown hands.

“Considering what you said before that you were unwilling to come and see it, isn’t that contradictory?” asked the man with gray hands.

The brown-handed man asked, “Why don’t you single yourself out?”

“Single file?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I said I didn’t want to, and I admit that, but I didn’t make it clear who I didn’t want to be with.” said the man with brown hands.

The gray-handed man deliberately smiled and said, “You are just speaking in general terms. If I were to list myself separately, I can’t list myself separately, right?” The brown-handed man said, “Should I be listed separately?”

The Gray Hand said, “What do you think?”

The brown-handed man said, “I have been listed separately.”

The Gray Hand Man said, “Oh, is that reflected in what you just said?”

The brown-handed man smiled and said, “I just said this specifically, ‘This is not directed at you’, don’t tell me you forgot. It’s been such a short time, you shouldn’t have forgotten it. Besides, you remember the other parts so clearly, you shouldn’t have forgotten this, right?”

“Whether you mean what I think or not, I will take it as you singled me out,” said the man with gray hands.

The brown-handed man said, “Do you want to stop giving me a clear answer after I admit that I am willing to be given an unclear answer?”

The Gray Hand Man smiled and said, “Do you mean when we talk next time?”

The brown-handed man said, “Yes, will you never give me a clear answer again?”

“It’s not to the point where I’ll never give you a clear answer again,” said the man with gray hands.

“Will you often not give me clear answers?” asked the Brown-Handed Man.

“You ask so many detailed questions, do you still want a clear answer?” asked the man with gray hands.

“It depends on what I’m asking.” The brown-handed man smiled, “I would like you to give me a clear answer, but I also would like you not to give me a clear answer. I would like both, but it’s hard to say which one I would prefer under different circumstances.”

The Gray Hand Man smiled and said, “I have nothing to refute if you say so. But I have to consider the situation.”
