Chapter 7022 (Seven Thousand and Twenty-Two)
The brown-handed man smiled and said, “You just said ‘yes’, which means you have promised but not done it before.”

“Just show it.” said the man with gray hands.

“So no matter whether you can do it this time or not, you can at least promise me first, right?” asked the brown-handed man.

“Why should I agree to you first?” asked the man with gray hands.

“At least let me think that you agreed verbally.” The brown-handed man smiled.

“What if you know that I can’t do it even if I agree?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

The brown-handed man smiled and said, “You told me so clearly that you couldn’t do it even if you promised? Is it possible that you could do it by that time?”

The Gray Hand Man smiled and said, “Anyway, I will only take you with me when it is really appropriate.”

The brown-handed man asked, “Why are you taking such a small matter so seriously?”

The Gray Hand Man smiled and said, “Yes. But are you really so eager to hear my promise?”

The brown-handed man smiled and said, “To be honest, it’s not that urgent.”

“You see, as soon as I guessed, you would say that.” The Gray Hand Man laughed.

“How did you guess that?” asked the brown-handed man.

“It has something to do with the tone of your voice just now. I thought you were just asking casually.” The Gray Hand Man laughed, “You weren’t eager to hear me agree to you at all.”

“Does it have something to do with the tone of my voice just now, or would you have known it even without hearing the tone of my voice?” asked the brown-handed man.

“Maybe it has something to do with the tone of your voice just now.” Gray Hand said, “How could you have thought that I would know even without listening to the tone of your voice?”

The brown-handed man laughed and said, “I won’t answer. If I did, you would say to me, ‘It’s the same again.'”

The Gray Hand said, “Even if I told you ‘It’s the same again’, what would it matter? You won’t lose anything.”

“It makes me feel that what I say lacks freshness.” said the man with brown hands.

“You don’t like this feeling?” asked the Gray Hand Man. The Brown Hand Man smiled and said, “Yes, I like the new feeling now.”

“What about before?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“What did you mean before? Are you asking me whether I liked new things before?” asked the man with brown hands.

“Yes.” said the Gray Hand Man.

The brown-handed man smiled and said, “You’re asking a tool if it likes novelty?”

The Gray Hand Man laughed and said, “Sounds weird, doesn’t it?”

“Yes.” said the man with brown hands.

“Isn’t this kind of question itself quite novel?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Are you saying this to say something new?” asked the Brown-Handed Man.

“That’s right.” Gray Hand Man smiled, “Because you just said that you like novelty now.”

“Did you say that specifically because of what I said?” asked the Brown-Handed Man.

The Gray Hand said, “Yes, of course that’s exactly what I was talking about.”

The brown-handed man said, “Oh,” and said, “Then I won’t say what I wanted to say just now.”

“Why don’t you say anything?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“You said it specifically for my sake. If I had said what I wanted to say just now, it would seem like I was being tactless.” The man with brown hands laughed.

“What is considered tactful and what is considered untactful?” asked the Gray Hand Man. “You can say whatever you want to say. That’s tactful.”

The brown-handed man said, “You don’t want to hear it, do you? I’m not going to tell you anymore.”

“Actually, I’m very curious. Since you don’t plan to tell me, I’m not curious anymore, but I seem to have guessed it.” said the man with gray hands.
