"But soon, they will be!"
Edmund, who was by the side, was dumbfounded, and he mumbled...
Then, he speculated in confusion, 'What does he f* eking mean by 'soon they will be'?! This Wade guy is ridiculous... I f*cking hate Oskians when they talk vaguely and not clearly...'
Just as he was in the dark about what Charlie meant, Charlie said to Isaac: "One more thing, Isaac, please get me some mercury dichloride. I intend to use it.”
When Charlie said this, Edmund felt as though he had been struck by lightning!
'Ah?! What does this Wade guy plan to do with mercury dichloride?!'
'Also, why did he ask for dialysis equipment to be set u p?!’
'And! He asked people to prepare the dialysis equipment and even said 'soon they will be'... what is ' soon to be'? What’s that?!'
'Now, he wants mercury dichloride, this... is he asking me to consume it?!'
Thinking of this, Edmund felt as if he was about to
collapse.
Kneeling with both knees on the ground in front of Charlie, Edmund cried, "Master Wade, please don't fool me. If you are not satisfied with a hundred million dollars, I can add another hundred million. Be merciful and let me go, please...”
Waving his hand, Charlie replied with a serious face," Edmund, there is a saying in Oskia-
"Nevertheless, I am still a cultured person who knows how to kill and bury, which is the correct way of doing things. I will not only provide you with free treatment but also free food and free stay. Most importantly, I will ensure that you will not die in the next ten years!”
Hearing this, Edmund had a complete mental and emotional breakdown!
Having been a coxcomb for more than twenty years, Edmund had never experienced any suffering although he had harmed many people.
It looked like Charlie had just convicted his future-to lie in the dark dog cage and rely on the dialysis machine for life!
To him, this kind of punishment was more terrible and horrifying than hell...
He had never dreamt that Charlie was such a ruthless and vicious person.
