You're Out Daddy

Chapter 877 Rough Words Sound Reasoning

Magus held up his phone, his eyes deep and his gaze obscure. A moment later, he answered the call.

“Hello.”

“Where's the stuff?” Lindon asked directly on the other side of the phone.

“I want to have a conversation with Lina!” Magus firmly demanded.

A cold smirk appeared at the corner of Lindon's mouth when he heard Magus' demand. “Magus, you never used to

bargain with me before!”

“Yeah, so that's why I've gotten the short end of the stick, right?” Magus asked rhetorically.

Lindon fell silent for a moment. He then continued, “Fine, you want to talk, right? Give me a second!”

As he spoke, there seemed to be some commotion on the other end of the phone.

The volume of his phone was not very low. Even through the phone, Thalia and Anthony beside him could hear their

conversation loud and clear. However, Anthony didn't even lift his head. His eyes were lowered as he was looking

down at his phone, watching as the screen rapidly scrolled upwards, with rows and rows of numerical coding

flashing by.

At that moment, a voice suddenly came through, “Go ahead, she's listening!”

Magus immediately asked, “Lina, how are you? Are you alright?”

The person on the other end of the phone immediately spoke when she heard Magus' voice. “Magus, no matter

what he asks you to do, don't agree to it and don't worry about me. Go, leave as far away as possible. Leave this

place, leave with those people!” On the other end of the phone, Lina's hysterical voice came through.

“Lina!”

Just as Magus was about to say something, Lindon suddenly took over the phone. “How about that, did you hear

her?”

“Lindon, how is Lina doing now? I'm telling you, if there's anything wrong with her, I will never forgive you for my

entire life!”

This threat really didn't mean much to him.

Lindon chuckled indifferently. “Don't worry, I'll definitely take good care of her and feed her nicely. After all, you're

my buddy, right?”

Buddy...

This word was extremely ironic.

Magus clenched his phone tightly, his knuckles turning white. “Lindon, don't say such disgusting things to me. You

know very well that I'd love nothing more than to chop you up piece by piece to vent my anger and hatred!”

Magus' reaction was well within Lindon's expectations, so he didn't show any signs of anger upon hearing those

words. “If you want to chop me up, I'd like to see if you're capable of doing so. However, right now, you definitely

aren't. Not only that, but you also have to listen to me. Whatever I say, you will have to obey, or else...” He paused

for a few seconds, and then Lina's screams came through the phone.

“Ah—”

Magus instantly became anxious. With furrowed brows, he suddenly shouted in a deep voice, “What do you want to

do? Lindon, if you have any problems, come at me!”

Hearing Magus' anxious voice, a low yet extremely twisted laughter echoed from the other end of the phone. “Why,

feeling heartbroken already?”

“What on earth do you want?” Magus asked through gritted teeth.

“Don't you know well enough what I want? It's not as simple as those few pieces of skin!” Lindon replied in a

mysterious tone.

Magus clenched his fist tightly, knowing that if he refused to do as he was told now, Lina on the other side would

undoubtedly suffer his torment.

Clenching and unclenching his fists, Magus finally spoke after an instant, “All right, I agree to your terms!”

When Lindon heard his response, he grinned in satisfaction. “That's more like it! If you had agreed earlier, we

wouldn't have had to go through all these emotionally draining experiences between us!”

“When will you let Lina go?”

“After the job is done, I'll definitely let her go!”

“How can I trust you?” Magus asked.

“Whether you choose to trust me is totally up to you. However, from my perspective, you are only left with one

option!” Lindon replied bluntly.

He was right. He had completely controlled Anthony's weakness in his palm, so there was no need for him to

reason, let alone explain so much. Anthony only had to comply obediently.

After thinking it over, just as Magus was about to say something, he suddenly saw Anthony holding up his phone

toward him. Glancing at the words on the screen, Magus was taken aback for a moment. He then asked, “When

should I give you the item?”

“Tomorrow, at the usual spot, I'll have someone to pick it up.”

“Come get it yourself!” Magus said, “Otherwise, I won't give it to you.”

“Magus, you should know that you have no right to discuss any terms with me right now!”

“I know, Lina is in your grasp, and to dispose of her would be as simple as crushing an ant. However, I'm also well

aware of your character. In this operation, I might not even make it out alive. Since death is inevitable sooner or

later, what do I have to fear? If the time really comes, I'll just go and accompany her. If I can't give her anything in

this life, I'll give it to her in the next life!” Magus retorted, emphasizing each word.

Lindon was slightly taken aback.

There was no denying that he felt somewhat helpless when faced with someone who had no regard for their own

life.

“On the other hand, I believe, apart from me, you can't find a more suitable person. Instead of focusing on the

money you can get, think about a suitable way to get it!” Magus said, emphasizing each word.

Lindon fell silent on the other end.

“That's it.” After that, without waiting for Lindon to reply, Magus directly hung up the phone.

Clutching the phone, Magus' hand was even trembling a bit.

Anthony finally put away his phone when he saw Magus hang up.

“Will this really work?” Magus asked, looking at him.

Anthony spoke without even lifting his head, “His desire for money is even greater than your desire to live. So, in

order to ensure the success of his own plan, he will definitely compromise!”

Magus' eyebrows furrowed deeply.

At that moment, Anthony raised his eyes and glanced at him. “No wonder he can take advantage of you. He knows

you far better than you know him, by a long shot!”

Magus was stunned speechless.

Witnessing the situation, Thalia, who was standing nearby, quickly came to Magus' defense. “Everyone has their

strong and weak points. Magus just isn't good at scheming against others. That is both his flaw and virtue.”

“Not good at scheming against others isn't considered a flaw, but not being cautious enough with others is your

own problem!” As Anthony spoke, he looked at Magus, “With your mindset, if you really want to fight Lindon single-

handedly, you'll most likely end up losing!”

Magus frowned deeply.

“My words may be harsh, but the reasoning behind it is very solid!” Anthony said.

Magus looked at him intently, “I wonder why you made me say that?”

“Because we're going to take him down directly tomorrow,” Anthony said.

Upon hearing this, both Thalia and Magus were slightly taken aback.

“Take him down? But didn't you say that we can only act once we find Lina's location?” Thalia asked.

“Yeah!” Anthony nodded.

“So you...”

“I found it!”

Thalia looked at him with even more astonishment, and even Magus, who was standing beside them, appeared to

be in disbelief.

“Where is she? Let me tell you, this is not something to brag about!”

Anthony sighed when he heard this. “When have I ever boasted to you?”

Thalia thought carefully. “It seems like you really never...”

Magus immediately asked, “So, where is she?”

Anthony quickly tapped on his phone a few times, then pointed the screen toward them. He whispered quietly,

“She's within 50 meters.”
