“And,”一直都处于沉默的杰西这个时候也开始说话了“if he only prepares two speeches in one city, a total of three cities, even if he is flying, it will take a little more than three days.”
“Jessi is right,”帕特里克将钢笔在桌子上一敲“the probability that they will choose an airplane for the sake of life safety is very small, most likely a car.”
所以，加上赶路的时间怎么也得四天了，而且还不确保怀特只进行两场演讲。
“Commander, please decide, we will go wherever you let us go.”夏佐扬西搭话
看着约翰森依旧沉默不语，杰西知道他是在犹豫，在时间和损失之间犹豫。
不过杰西倒是希望能够越早越好，毕竟比起这次的行动，与她个人来说还是两天后的事更让她心烦。
“Four days later, each of them sent 50 of their own people to Stia.”
杰西可算是明白了，在这里她的愿望是永远都不能达成了，事情根本不会向她期望的方向发展。
“Now, then, it\u0027s time to judge where White will be going to give his speech.”
“Of course it was an open-air square.”阿尔杰卡兰说道
帕特里克表示同意“Where is the square, what time, and how many people will they arrange?”
这些才是考虑的关键
听到这里，阿尔杰卡兰有些说不上来了，因为他并没有去过斯堤雅。
“None of us had been there, so we had to go on field trips for the next three days.”
“Well,”约翰森将桌子上的地图收了起来抵还给夏佐扬西“everyone gives a location, and I\u0027ll be waiting for you here in three days.”
杰西就这样目送这五人离开了迷宫。
既然讨论已经结束，杰西也并不想在这里多待一秒钟，准备起身离开。
可是巨大的阻力却让她没办法离开
“Two days later, don\u0027t forget.”
杰西并没有再做挣扎，而是将头转向了约翰森那边“Commander, I don\u0027t think this should be considered at such an urgent moment.”
他若无其事地抚摸着她的红发“You always use the banner of being good for me to achieve your goals.”
根本不等杰西做出回答，他接着说“To be honest with you, in fact, I plan to act in two days, after all, I am a gambler, and the more dangerous I am, the more I like it.”
“And I chose to wait two more days not only because you thought it was just for their safety, but also because I knew you wanted me to choose the former.”
听着约翰森这么大段大段的说这话，杰西也就明白了，不光是她了解他，相同的他也了解她。
因为我知道你认为我会这么做，那么我就不会这么做，更何况这么做对你更有利。
“Stop making other excuses to delay time, I\u0027ve been giving you a long time.”
是的，约翰森已经给了她快五年的时间了，这次任何的说辞都不可能再说动他了。
他当初是听帕特里克的建议才没有在将杰西带回迷宫的第一个晚上就对她动手。
可是现在五年过去，事情好像就只是在四年前，前进了那一步而已。
所以他放弃继续等待，而本身，他也不是一个会等待的人。
“I know you don\u0027t want to do it, but I\u0027m a gambler and I want to see how you\u0027ll kill me at that time.”
他起身，一只手捏着杰西的下巴“I also hope that you are a gambler, if you can\u0027t kill me, you have to run quickly, you know?”
那只手的大拇指轻轻摩挲着她的唇，他好像很喜欢这么做“If you fail, you will be tied up here by me, and you will be better off living than dying at that time.”
听到了这种话，杰西的眼睛陡然睁大，她确实没想过约翰森会选择这么做。
她想过他会杀了她；也想过他会把她扔到新奇迹里去招待他的客人；更想过他会把她丢进那些‘将军’的大营，成为那种用完就扔的角色，但唯独没想过会是这种。
可是这种却也是他会做出来的事，说到底，杰西还是最不想让这个想法成真的，所以从来都没想过。
“The madman is the most wrong evaluation I made about you, you are a pervert.”
“Yeah, isn\u0027t that all you forced me to do?”约翰森丝毫不生气
杰西冷哼一声“Blame me? Wrong, that\u0027s who you are.”
“En en ”约翰森点着头像是十分认同她的说法“Then you have to take the initiative a little more, so that you don\u0027t have to suffer.”
“It\u0027s getting late, good night.”最后一个尾音轻扬，约翰森并没有回到房间，相反，他离开了迷宫。
杰西依旧坐在原地，耳边还回响着那句‘晚安’，她像是听到了一丝的愉悦。
