Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4668 (Four Thousand Six Hundred and Sixty Eight) Utilization

"What did he do to you?" asked the Gray Hands.

"He asked me... if it felt uncomfortable to lie... even though I saw the blue nails... to comfort myself?" the man asked.

"How did you answer?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I just asked him if he knew that I can’t even lower my head right now.” said the man.

"What did he say?" asked the Gray Hand.

The man replied: "He deliberately asked me: 'Really?' in a mocking tone."

The Gray Hand Man asked, "What about you? It felt like he was mocking you, so did you answer?"

"I felt that I... was unable to lower my head at that time, as if... as if I was restrained by something. This kind of thing... must have been caused by him, so... so I told him directly... he knew best whether I could do it or not." said the man.

"Did he respond to you?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes,” the man said, “He said I could clearly see the color of my fingernails because… because it was right in front of me… and he said I was fooling him by saying I couldn’t lower my head.”

"What about you?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I told him that what I saw was just a hand shadow. It wasn’t my own hand at all, and that the hand shadow was probably created by him.” The man said, “I also said that my real hands were not raised at all, so I couldn’t see them. Even if he used the hand shadow to deceive me, I wouldn’t fall for it.”

The Gray Hand asked, "How did he listen?"

"He said that since... since I can see the shadows I mentioned, I should understand... what my fingernails on my hands really look like. He said that the appearance of the nails on the hands that I called shadow hands... is the same as what my fingernails on my hands really look like." The man replied.

The Gray Hand asked, "Did you believe what he said after hearing it?"

"I... I don't think I believe it anymore." The man replied. "Not believe it? What do you mean?" the Gray Hand asked.

The man replied: "I felt...I didn't believe what he said, but...I was definitely scared at the time."

The Gray Hand asked, "Why are you afraid?"

"I... probably imagined the kind of... possibility he said..." said the man.

"You're just imagining it and haven't really believed it, but you're already scared?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." The man said, "After all...after all, when I imagine...I worry that it is...real."

The Gray Hand asked again: "Did you say anything to him?"

"I told him that everything he said was a lie... I... I didn't believe him. He... he was just using shadow puppets... to trick me." said the man.

"What happened next?" the Gray Hands Man asked again.

"Then he...he...told me...that even if I saw what my real hands looked like now...I would definitely not say that." The man replied.

The Gray Hand asked, "What about you?"

"I told him, then he... should stop restraining me, and let me see what my real hands really look like." The man said, "Actually, I... I just wanted to use this opportunity to say this to him... so that he can untie me."

Gray Hand Man said, "How did he react?"
