Seeing that David went out, Erwin said in a relaxed tone, "Don't say I'm silly in front of others anymore, okay? I'm not stupid. I just don't want to show off my intelligence."
Thinking of the series of stupid things that Erwin had done just now, I couldn't accept that he was a clever man. Originally, I was the only one who was doomed to death, but now there was one more.
At this point, I really couldn't say anything nice. It was inevitable that there was a bit of complaint in my tone. "Don't tell me that you are smart. I thought you could really save me out. But I didn't expect that you are such a fool. There was only one dagger in the hand of David. You cut off your finger by using it. Why did you return it to him? If the dagger is in your hand, if you are not really stupid, maybe he is the one who is tied here now."
"Yes, you're right. Why didn't I think of it? It seems that you are not a silly woman!"
Even at this time, there was still no seriousness in his tone.
His attitude may be the reason why I was a little annoyed with him. I should have been frightened and spent every second in fear under the present situation, but I even felt that I was experiencing a farce now.
What else could I do except to accept my fate? At least he came here to save me.
I suppressed my emotions and asked him with concern, "Anyway, I'm sorry that you lost your finger and that you have to die with me now."
"It's not a big deal. You owe me this time. Remember to repay me in the next life, okay?"
"I don't want to have a next life."
"Don't say that. If you don't have a next life, I will die unjustly!"
Erwin touched me in the extremely limited space. "Hey, let me ask you a question. It's your reward for me. Anyway, I'm also a dying person now, and I won't say anything to others."
"What question?"
"What happened to Rogelio? What are the true and false words on the Internet?"
Even at this time, I didn't want to answer this question, so I just prevaricated casually, "Didn't I answer you when you called me?"
"I was very angry at that time, but I was a little unwilling to accept it. I don't believe that I have such a bad taste and fall in love with such a woman. So today I want to confirm with you. I also want to die without any regret."
"I'm not a good woman indeed, and your taste is really bad."
"Can't you just answer me seriously? What's your relationship with the two of them? Forget it. It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me. Just tell me one thing. Can you get rid of the two of them?"
I bit my lips and was about to say sorry again, but I accidentally saw the finger that he had cut off just now lying on the ground not far away from us.
I should have felt guilty for him, but when I saw the "finger" which was clinging to the ground, I felt rather strange. Its whole shape had become the shape of a trampled shoe print. When I looked at it carefully, I found that there was no blood stains on it.
I felt something was wrong, so I began to recall all the details.
