Chapter 327: Nothing
The next morning.
"Where did you spend the night last night?" Anne Baez arrived at the door of the bustling Academy of Magic.
"First go to the Pinjin Grotto in Shangcheng District and find two interracial beauties lingering. Then go to the 'Rose Bush' in the 7th district of the lower city to take a bath, where the massage techniques of the shiitake mushrooms are not impossible to condense the godhead in situ. Thor muttered, and replied angrily.
Anne Baez was stunned for a moment, and looked at Thor with a playful gaze, she had never been to the 'Rose Bush', but she had heard of it.
"Do you really believe me? I'm a wanted criminal and I don't have any money, so where can I go but to huddle in the stables? I slept until midnight and was attacked by wild dogs, who chased me for a few streets. Thor pouted, looking desolate.
"Poof~ You know it's useless for me to sell miserably. Anne Baez chuckled, then returned to her composure.
Thor was too lazy to talk about it, looking at the crowded students at the gate of the academy with some silence and envy.
Those young students scrambled to squeeze into the gate of the academy with a dazzling vitality. They are certainly not the part of the school that lives there, but the group of people who go home every day, with their own families in the local area.
I used to try my best to grow up, thinking that when I grew up, I would no longer be bullied by the world, and I didn't have to bow to fate anymore. But when you're really old enough to be conceited about life and death, you start to miss the idle and wild times in the past.
At the end of the day, Saul believes that life is such a thing, and no matter how you spend it, you will eventually regret it.
It's not about the way you spend your time, it's about the greed of human nature. After all, there is only one life, irreversible, and irreversible.
The anthropologist Floran once mentioned it in his "Idle Travels".
One day, you find two paths in the golden forest, and you can only step on one of them.
You stand at the intersection and look out, trying to find some reason for your choice. Then you find that the scenery on both sides of one of the roads is singing and dancing, while the other road seems to be ordinary, and there is a faint fog that seems to lead to the unknown.
So you chose the one that sang and danced without surprise.
You firmly tell yourself that you are right, and then set out on the road.
But are you really right?
As the days passed, when you could never revisit the same place, the misty road stretched out in your heart, and you couldn't help but wonder. What would my life be like if I had chosen another one on the day I entered the Golden Forest?
The moral of this story is very clear, the road can be retaken, but life and the future cannot, sometimes you can only choose one or the other.
Last night, Saul spent the night in the dormitory of the male cadets and found an empty room on the second floor. There were no accidents, no one to disturb me, and I slept soundly. And now it's time for me to leave, because I don't belong here.
Aside from the academy itself, oh, and Cecily's little shiitake mushroom, no one knew they had come and gone.
After a final glance at the beautiful view of the walled courtyard of the academy, Thor turned to leave.
"Where are you going now?" asked Anne Baez.
"Going for breakfast, of course. Thor didn't look back.
"Oh, I've already eaten it. Anne Baez replied subconsciously.
"Doesn't your conscience hurt? Forget it, since no one cares about my well-being, I can only take care of myself, so let me be silently sad. Thor turned his head to look at Anne Baez, and only then did he let her go.
"Big deal...... I'll just bring one for you tomorrow. Anne Baez bowed her head, and after a moment she suddenly looked up. Isn't it just a little thing like having breakfast? What am I guilty about here? What's wrong with me?
I found a small restaurant and asked for a plain milk bread, and after seeing Anne Baez shake her head, Thor began to eat quietly.
"How are you going to save it?" said Anne Baez, who asked the point.
"Do you have any more specific information here, such as what is the name of the secret realm, are there any monsters in it, how many guards are in the configuration, how are the guards in strength, how do I open the secret realm, are there any restrictions on entering it?" Thor asked a series of questions, chewing on bread.
"I can't find out, and the news has never really spread publicly. ”
"The bits and pieces I got were all I heard when a friend went to a dinner with his elders. She told me because she knew about my relationship with Lorna. Anne Baez thought for a moment, and could only shake her head weakly in reply.
"Did you ever think this might be a trap?" asked Thor as he chewed his bread.
"My friend...... Should be reliable. Anne Baez thought back.
"Don't surrender love and humanity to me, there are no absolutes in this world, nothing more than the bargaining chips needed for betrayal. Of course, I'm not saying that your friends are necessarily untrustworthy. ”
"She may just be someone else's mouthpiece without knowing it, and she may not have any malicious intentions. "For the Academy
"Or, conversely, if the Dark Council has set a trap against me, they have to reveal a little bit of information if they want to lure me in. Anyway, at least send some wind to my ears, so that I have the problem of biting or not biting. ”
"And if you can find me and are willing to find me, and at the same time you will not be suspected by me, you are the only one left among the three shiitake mushrooms that were close to me at that time. Is that possible, you say?" said Thor, who chewed slowly, lowered his head and began to suck the milk.
"Like...... If that's possible, what now?" Annie Baez frowned.
"What else can I do? I don't know anything now, just wait. This kind of passive battlefield is too difficult, so I have temporarily found two directions to inquire about the news, and I will talk about it when the results are fed back. Thor spread his hands.
"So what if the last ...... Still haven't heard about it?" Anne Baez bit her lip slightly.
"Then you have to force it, like I used to do. Thor looked at the dark sky, a little solemn.
"But isn't your curse healing? and if you force your hand this time, you may not be able to run away again. Anne Baez turned her head to look at Saul, looking a little worried and unbearable, and she remembered the terrible appearance of Saul's human torn at that time.
"They are both your friends and my important ...... Oh, little shiitake mushrooms. So if our little knight is willing to kiss me, I think I can go all the way to hell. Thor suddenly turned his face and leaned in front of Anne Baez.
Anne Baez subconsciously leaned forward a little, her eyes blinked, and she suddenly came to her senses, and pushed Thor's dog head away angrily.
Two days later, instead of going to the Golden Malt Tavern to show him the way, Thor knocked on Jaime's door.
"My lord, there is something strange about what you have ordered. The two women you said disappeared, and I mean they seemed to be targeted by some force and then disappeared. I mobilized all my contacts to inquire, but I still haven't asked where I am. ”
As soon as Thor entered, Jaime reported and handed Thor some of the pieces of information he had put together to look at.
Thor was not surprised by this result, the only thing that could be seen from the information on paper was that Lorna and Chrissy disappeared at about the same time, or at the same time.
Anything else that is largely inconsequential, such as how the Emilton family, which Lorna supports independently, is targeted, how Chriss's orphans and widows are bullied, and finally how Chrissy becomes alone.
Thor read it silently, closed his eyes and was silent for a moment.
"You've done a great job, thanks. Then Thor turned to leave, and Jaime had done his best.
"Is there anything else I can help, my lord?" said Jaime abruptly to Thor's back, his eyes full of determination.
Thor stopped, turned and muttered for a moment.
"Perhaps...... You can take care of me, but it's not risk-free, and it's not necessarily going to die. ”
"Even if you're still alive when you're done, you probably won't be able to continue in Odrenna. ”
"Would you be interested in being transferred to Byron Bian's side? Or I can arrange for you to be close to the territory so that you and Shamia can spend more time together. Thor turned to look at Jaime.
"Driven by adults, I hope to be able to do my best. Jaime stepped forward and got down on one knee and clenched his fists to meet Thor's gaze.
"Okay, I'll come back to you when I make a plan. Thor turned and pulled the door open and left.
On the third day, the tree-lined path at the Izheim School of Magic.
Seeing Thor carrying a book and pretending to be under the street lamp, Cecily stepped forward speechlessly.
The two walked in silence, then occupied a table in the academy dining room.
"I thought you were a gentleman, but is it really good for you to ask me for help and cheat on me about a little girl's food?" Cecily teased.
"What's so embarrassing about this? I'm just relying on my strength, and when you go to my territory, I can't hold you to death. Thor waved his hand.
Bring their respective meals and set them up, and of course Cecily pays the bill.
"Hod Vinson, but not from the Vincennes family, the head of the Vincennes family is his uncle. After his parents died in a political plot a few years ago, he lived in his uncle's house, and then entered the Izheim School of Magic with his cousin's light. ”
"Usually withdrawn, don't like to communicate with people, indulge in magic experiments or research all year round, and have some small inventions that have little practical significance. After graduating from the academy, he is currently working as a helper in a magic shop in Uptown. ”
"Such a person...... Is there anything special?" Cecily looked at Thor.
"It's nothing, but I exchanged a few words with him last time I came, and I can barely be half a friend, so I asked about the next situation by the way. Thor replied casually, listening to what Cecily had heard about Hodder, it was not much different from what he had imagined.
"Lorna's side may have fallen into the hands of Sinelle, who is said to be locked up in a private secret place. ”
"Since it's a private person, I don't know anything about the details of the environment in the secret realm, so I'm sorry, but I can only get these things even if I mobilize the power I can use. Cecily looked at Thor and finished what she knew.
"Miss has worked hard, thank you very much. Saul still kept eating, as if he were enjoying Cecily's opera while eating.
