Aventurine smiled faintly. "What if? Maybe that's why I'm still thinking about giving money away when death is at my doorstep~"
Seeing this, the players' eyes widened in shock again.
If this was true, that would be insanely badass!
It was one link after another.
If he had really hidden beacons inside those jewels and was now handing them out...
Then even if the Family wanted to search for them, they probably wouldn't be able to find them.
This was practically a fight to the death.
"...You've completely lost your mind, you damned gambler."
"Maybe I went mad a long time ago."
"..."
0.2 "Forget it..." Dr. Ratio sighed and shook his head, then pulled something else from his pocket and handed it to Aventurine.
"Take this. Open it when death is at your doorstep. You'll thank me."
Aventurine took the item and examined it closely for a moment. "What the hell is this... medical advice?"
"..."
When the other party failed to respond, Aventurine finally looked up.
But Dr. Ratio was nowhere to be seen.
"...Heh, you certainly understand dramatic flair, Professor."
In the end, Aventurine accepted what Dr. Ratio had given him.
Then, he began preparing for what came next.
By now, the players had a rough idea of what was going on.
It seemed Dr. Ratio really had betrayed Aventurine.
But the thing he gave Aventurine at the end might have been out of guilt, a way of trying to save him once?
PS: Don't do this. Suddenly adding too many characters is genuinely hard to handle. I mean characters who still haven't appeared later on.
Like Jade and Feixiao.
As for Fu Hua, who you all mentioned, she really has vanished from the story for now, but I'll definitely write her when the Marshal appears
