Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4036 (Four Thousand and Thirty-Six) ​​How Close
After hearing this, Tie Hongyan asked the man, "How close was he to each of them when he spoke?"

The man gestured to Tie Hongyan.

Tie Hongyan asked the other Tiecang people: "Is that so?"

"Yes."

"more or less."

“I think it’s that close.”

Tie Hongyan looked at the pale-faced man and asked, "Is it about this distance?"

The pale man nodded and said, "Yes."

Tie Hongyan then asked the other Tiecang people: "Were you far away from them at that time?"

"Farther than him," the man said, pointing at the pale-faced man.

"Definitely farther than him."

"He was closest to them when he was talking to both of them."

"Yes, he has recently."

Tie Hongyan asked, "When he was talking to the two of them, was he the only one close to them?"

Those people nodded.

"Yes."

"He's the only one close."

"In fact, we are all about the same distance from those two people."

Tie Hongyan asked: "Why is he the only one who is close?"

"Because he is the one who is going to talk to them."

"We didn't want to talk to those two people at the time."

"Yes, he wanted to do that himself."

"We didn't get that close at first, but those two couldn't hear him, so we had to get closer."

Tie Hongyan asked: "You mean, when he first started talking to the two of them, he wasn't that close to them?"

"Yes."

"Yes."

The men nodded again.

Tie Hongyan asked again: "When he first spoke to them, he was closer to them than you are, right?" "Well..."

"Ah."

"right."

Those who said that seemed less than pleasant because they didn't want to show that they were afraid in front of her.

"Were you worried about danger at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked directly.

Since Tie Hongyan asked that, they had no choice but to admit it. They just didn't want to show that they were afraid. But they didn't refuse to admit that they were "worried about danger."

"Yes."

"Yes."

“It’s very likely to be dangerous.”

"I just felt there might be danger, so I backed off."

As soon as the word "step back" came out, some of the other people in Tiecang cast unsatisfied looks at him.

Tie Hongyan noticed that look and felt that some people did not want that person to take the initiative to talk about "retreating", but she thought she had to ask clearly, so she asked: "Did you retreat at that time?"

At this time, only a few people nodded.

"Yes."

"Danger... just retreat."

"Someone said at the time that if you feel it's dangerous, just move back."

Tie Hongyan asked, "So, someone specifically suggested retreating at that time?"

This time, more people nodded, because they felt that even if Tie Hongyan knew that they all retreated because they were worried about danger, it was because someone had suggested it. As for whether they were willing to retreat or not, that was another matter.

"Who said that?" Tie Hongyan asked.

The person who said this at the time now said, "I."

"What did you say at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"I said, 'I'm going to step back now, and you guys should step back too, stay away from them,'" the man said.

Tie Hongyan asked those people: "Then did you all retreat a lot?"

"It's not much."

"Not much."
