Chapter Eighty-Seven: Ordinary Eyes, Extraordinary Sights
"Sorry, military secrets, I can't tell you. Instead of answering Eve's question directly, Damia pointed to the very suspicious ball of plants not far away, and asked, "What is this?
Knowing that she had been mischievous, Eve finally remembered someone she had been mischievous, and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, then reached out to disarm her magic and replied, "A teammate who is not very obedient." ”
The female officer, Damia, looked strangely at Miss Eve, who was buried in her head, and then at some familiar female skeletons not far away, turned her head thoughtfully to look at the ball of plants that began to wriggle, and asked, "Is that Mr. Gaqian?"
"Mr. Gaqian?" Miss Eve couldn't help laughing, nodded her head, and said, "That's right, it's that gentleman." ”
"Totally imaginable. ”
"Two beautiful young ladies, it's not a lady's act to talk about others behind your back. "Sean, who broke free, didn't yell as I imagined, but just kept a calm face, biting 'Beauty' and 'Lady' hard, and then threatened: "I also have a note on the little lady." ”
"Hehe..."
Sean was only responded to by Miss Eve's sneer, then she turned to the female officer, Damia, and asked, "Can we leave?"
"Of course, but you'll need to report this to Her Majesty Mapel. After nodding in agreement, Damian looked at me and asked, "In addition, the identity of this gentleman, and the identity of the old gentleman behind him." ”
My identity?
When asked by the female officer, Miss Eve replied directly before me: "Mr. Charles is our supernumerary, and so is this old Mr. Kobor, but he is now dead. ”
"I'm sorry, but please mourn. The female officer saluted the teacher with a solemn face, and then motioned for the surrounding soldiers to let us leave.
Eve and the others did not stop at this, and after asking the female officer Damian for a carriage, they led me in the direction of the Steam Capital.
The moment I boarded the carriage, I couldn't help but take a deep look at the Black Mountains behind me, which had stopped shaking and had disappeared from the cracks all over its body, as if it were a normal mountain range, except for its strange colors and shapes.
But who would have imagined that under this seemingly ordinary mountain range, there are so many secrets, countless souls, buried evils, and the guards of mysterious troops.
How many things are hidden in this world that are not known to the world?
With a deep sigh, I withdrew my gaze and placed the depth in the deepest part of my thoughts, and at the same time I carried the teacher's body on my back and boarded the carriage.
Gently placing the teacher in the carriage, I quietly looked at his serene face, sadness welled up in my heart again, and Miss Freya, who was Sean beside me, seemed to sense my mood, and did not make any sound along the way, but kept the atmosphere in silence.
"Da, da, da..."
Listening to the sound of horses' hooves coming from outside the carriage, we are getting closer and closer to the city, and my heart is becoming more and more confused, it has always been the teacher who takes care of my life, how should I spend it now?
Teacher...
The affectionate call sounded in my heart, and I couldn't help but slowly close my eyes, let the tears run through my eyes, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Sean, why did you join such an organization?"
"Why?" Sean looked at me deeply before continuing, "For a man who forgot his name and a woman he loved dearly. ”
Men and women?
I could clearly feel the loneliness in his eyes, an indescribable loneliness, and after hesitating for a long time, I still asked, "Then how are they now?"
"Man, I'm still on my quest. Sean leaned his head against the carriage, his eyes fell to the window, and the corners of his mouth showed a touch of self-mockery: "Women and I are like two parallel lines that never intersect." ”
"Why don't you take control of your love?"
"Love?" the sarcasm in Sean's tone suddenly became apparent, "Mr. Charles, I told you that we are not a land of hope, our existence is accompanied by countless dangers, and I myself dare not guarantee that I will survive tomorrow, let alone protect her." ”
"I disagree. I don't know why I have an inexplicable emotion in my heart, so much so that I retorted to Sean's point and said, "It just shows that you are not strong enough, as long as you can have enough power, nothing can stop you." ”
"Your thoughts are dangerous, Charles. Sean ignored the sharpness of my words, but instead looked admonished, and said, "Don't be anxious in the mysterious world, any little mistake will lead you into the abyss." ”
Abyss?
Am I not at its feet?
If it gives me everything I need, I'm willing to welcome it.
For a moment I stopped saying this, because I knew that if I said this, Mr. Sean would be against me joining them, after all, he was a kind gentleman, a gentle man who wrapped himself in indifference.
I don't want to hurt you, but I don't want you to stop me.
With the insignia of the army on the carriage, we were not subjected to any interrogation along the way, and finally returned to the city without any problems.
After saying goodbye to the two of them, I looked at the teacher in silence for a while, then turned around and jumped out of the carriage with deep reluctance.
Standing in the street, I did not leave at once, but watched the back of Miss Eve drive away alone, and did not turn away until they disappeared around the corner.
At this point I need to go back to the hotel to pack my belongings, and then go back to my residence to sort out the teacher's belongings.
As for the teacher's body, Miss Eve and the others took it away, and according to Sean, the teacher should be buried in a secret military cemetery tomorrow.
Born in darkness, died in the nameless.
It's brutal.
But I will still choose this path, even if I accidentally lose my life one day, I will not regret my choice.
After all, I have also fought for my ideals, and I just hope that someone will bury me next to my teacher when the time comes.
Thinking of this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of my mouth, and I reached out and pinched the deformed bracelet in my pocket, and then retracted my thoughts and went to the hotel.
One more thing.
......
My name is Charles, I'm a private investigator in the City of Steam, maybe from tomorrow my identity will change, maybe from tomorrow my life will start a new chapter, but who will share the joy with me?
In the end, I still had nothing but loneliness, but my story was far from over.
