Chapter 5461 (Five Thousand Four Hundred and Sixty-One) Cheating Me

The man replied, "Yes."

The Gray Hand asked, "You just told him yes?"

"No." The man said, "I suddenly didn't know what to say at that time."

The Gray Hand asked, "Why?"

"Because I didn't expect... I didn't expect him to actually... actually say that I was 'just honest with him'." The man said, "Before, he said... I lied to him, and he insisted that I lied to him. Now he said that I was honest with him again, and I... don't understand what's going on."

The Gray Hand Man asked, "In your dream, do you know why he acted like that?"

"You'll know later." said the man.

"Did you ask him?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes.” The man said, “I asked him directly… if he believed me.”

The Gray Hand asked, "Did he answer you?"

"He answered." The man said, "He said... he already knew that both things I said were true."

The Gray Hand asked, "Then why did he say that? Didn't you ask him?"

"I did." The man said, "I asked him why he said I lied to him just now."

The Gray Hand asked, "Did he tell you?"

The man said, "He told me. He said...he was just trying to trick me."

Gray Hand asked, "Why did I cheat you? Did you ask again?"

“I asked.” The man said, “I asked why.”

"Did he tell you the reason again?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." The man said, "He told me the reason again. He said... if he cheated me, I would be afraid of him... and choose one of the two things he said to say that I cheated him. Then he would know that the answer I gave him was completely... determined by how he asked."

The Gray Hand said, "Because he already knew that both things you said were true, so he tested you like that?"

"Yes." said the man.

The man with gray hands asked: "In the dream, did you believe what he said?" "I did, but... because I was a little confused, I still asked him a question." said the man.

"What did you ask?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Ask him...why he cheated me more than once." said the man.

"Did he tell you?" asked the Gray Hand.

"I told him, he said... every time he cheated me, he was watching me, to see how I would react. He cheated me more than once and I didn't lie, so he was the only one who could be sure." said the man.

The Gray Hand asked, "This time it proves that you didn't lie to him about either of the two things. What happened to him next?"

The man said, "He asked me if I knew...why I felt hot."

The Gray Hand asked, "Did you answer him?"

"I answered." The man said, "I suddenly felt... it became easier for me to speak at this time."

"Physically or mentally?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Both." said the man.

The Gray Hand asked, "Not as painful as before?"

"Yes." said the man.

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

The man said, "I said...I felt hot because...he...had those people pushing against me."

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

The man said: "He said... did I see those people pushing towards me."

The Gray Hand asked, "How did you answer?"

"I said... I only saw some people pushing towards me." The man said, "I also told him... I saw it with my peripheral vision."
