Chapter 594 - 587: Second Attack
Gao Yuan poked through the paper covering the window, making explicit the implicit understanding that everyone here, except for Xinghe, was aware of—one that could only be intuited and not openly discussed.
From Gao Yuan’s perspective, he abhorred the behavior of vying for power and profit in the face of a formidable enemy; thus, both emotionally and logically, he would never do such a thing.
Murphy was silent for a long time, and then he nodded, "Understood, sorry, I was stuck in old patterns of thinking. If possible, I would unconsciously try to secure greater benefits for my own side."
Big Ivan chuckled, "Understandable, we all do that, but now is the time to cooperate. Your tactics are outdated here."
The Ram also smiled, "That’s why we are discussing the specifics, the details of what we’ve planned for today."
Murphy let out a breath and spread his hands, "Do I even need to say it? Each of you should already know what to do."
The Ram grinned, "I can think of what should be done, but I believe you can do it better, given your rich experience, so we don’t need to waste our brainpower. Just tell us how to proceed."
Without hesitation, Murphy said, "It needs to be done step by step, letting everyone think they have uncovered the truth themselves, rather than you revealing it to them intentionally. People are like that. Tell them Gao Yuan is an alien, they’ll think it’s a hoax, but if you try hard to hide it and they discover suspicious signs, and then you are forced to announce it, they’ll say, ’I knew it, that’s what I thought.’"
