Gustav, though he said he couldn't do it, was clearly wavering in his stance. It was just that he felt embarrassed to be the only one to sell out, seeing how resolutely Biden had refused.
David naturally saw through this and leaned back slightly, saying with a playful smile, "What if I return the money to you, and also your freedom?"
"What did you say, our freedom too?"
At that, Gustav's expression changed, and he immediately pressed, eager for an answer.
In his view, ever since Dieter got involved with the assassination, it was inevitable that the entire group would meet a bad end. Everyone would have to suffer the consequences!
Even if he was now willing to testify and stand out to accuse Dieter, at best that would only be considered a minor meritorious deed; he was certainly still going to end up behind bars.
But who could have thought that David was now talking about giving them back their freedom? Could it be that they really weren't going to pursue the assassination?
