While pondering whether to rise and take his leave so as to find a secluded spot to relieve himself, he heard the old General's revealing statement.
This made his heart skip a beat, followed by a burst of laughter.
It seemed everything the old General had said and done before was false.
Only this statement was the truth.
It appeared that everything tonight was for this sentence.
Without needing to think, he knew that the old man must have assumed he was nearly drunk.
Little did the old man know, despite feeling bloated from the drinks, his consciousness was completely unaffected.
Clearly, the old man wanted to pry information from his lips.
Though his mind raced with these thoughts, it was only a moment's contemplation.
However, since the old General wanted to fish for information, he might as well play the part convincingly.
