Chapter 4182
Merlin sighed. "But I still don't quite understand why they would want to draw the Fox family into the spotlight. Are they going to make a move against the Fox family in front of the whole world?! That would be too arrogant and the whole world will not forgive them for it. By then, they will definitely become everyone's public enemy!"
Christian frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Unless... Unless they have absolute certainty that they would be able to reverse the current situation completely!"
With that said, a rarely seen slightly frightened expression appeared on Christian's face as he blurted out, "Ahh, I got it! This must be a public execution!" "Public execution..." Merlin muttered and repeated Christian's sentence. After that, his eyes suddenly lit up and he blurted out, "I got it now! If your inference is right, then this mysterious person must have mastered a huge scandal of the Fox family. As soon as this scandal is exposed, the entire Fox family will suffer a devastating blow! They are deliberately using this method to draw the Fox family out into the spotlight in front of the whole world, just to ruin the entire Fox family!"
Christian nodded and said solemnly," That's right! I presume that this is what's happening!"
Merlin then said with a horrified expression, "Then this really is a public execution... First, they were oppressed and then they were raised up only to fall down hard again..."
Having said this, Merlin tapped on the tabletop repeatedly and muttered, "What exactly could be so powerful? Could it be... Could it be that Lord Fox is back to seize power?!"novelbin
Christian was about to speak but Merlin hurriedly shook his head again and said," No! Even if Lord Fox were to come back, it is impossible for him to hurt his own great-grandson. Moreover, Lord Fox had been completely overthrown from the Fox family and it is impossible for him to have such powerful and mysterious forces..."
When Christian saw that his best friend was puzzled, he could not help but laugh and said, "It seems as though as an Oskian detective, there are also times when you can't figure things out."
Merlin laughed wryly and said, "The main point is that this matter really defies common sense. If the other party is so strong, then it is impossible for us not to have heard of it before. How could someone acquire such a powerful force
quietly in society today?"
Christian smiled wryly and said, "Merlin, many things... are indeed contrary to common sense. In other words, we ourselves are in fact ignorant..."
As Christian spoke, he looked at Merlin and asked, "Merlin, do you believe that there is a drug in this world that is as big as the size of a quail's egg but cannot even be bought for three hundred billion US dollars?"
Merlin was dumbfounded and he blurted out, "What did you say? Three hundred billion US dollars for a drug? Did I hear you correctly?!"
Christian nodded with certainty and said, Yes, you heard me correctly! It's three hundred billion US dollars!"
Merlin frowned and said, "Could it be some kind of targeted drug that can cure cancer and is sold for three hundred billion US dollars along with the patent? But that's too expensive..."
Christian laughed and said, "Along with the patent... Dream on! It's just an Oskian pill. You'd be spending three hundred billion US dollars just to buy that one pill. The formula will not be given to you, and you aren't allowed to take the pill away either. You'll have to buy the pill and eat it directly on the spot."
"F*ck..." Merlin cursed and curled his lips as he said, "That's f*cking insane! Who would dare to sell a pitt for three hundred billion US dollars?! That is even more ruthless than these kidnappers! What kind of idiot would buy this pill at such an expensive price?!"
