Chapter Eighty-Four: The End?

Previous Chapter

"Eva, I'm gone, with our children. Don't come to us, we will bless and pray for you all the time in a distant place. Also, I'll lend you fifty Guards first, and I'll pay them back to you in a while. Goodbye, my love, my princess, the weirdo who loves you forever. ”

After reading the note, Eva immediately rushed out the door, found Seth who had just entered the office, and asked, "Where has Mike gone?"

"What's wrong with Mike? He's gone?" I'll just say how weird he was yesterday......" Monk Seth replied confused

"Don't lie to me!you're sure you know!!" Eva asked

"I really don't know!" Seth said, his eyes scanning over a note on his desk

Seth immediately stepped forward to take a look, but Eva, who was quick to see at this time, snatched the note first. Eva read the above content: it was probably Mike telling him that after he left, he hoped that Seth and the Aurora Corps would still try to assist Eva or something. After reading it, she immediately understood that Seth didn't know it, so she left in a hurry...

Seth sighed helplessly and looked at the queen's back in the distance, thinking, 'It seems that she is no longer the little girl she used to be...'

Another year passed

Mike returned the fifty borrowed Kingsmen as promised. But Eva, who even used lynching, didn't get a word out of the mouths of the returning soldiers about the whereabouts of Mike and the baby girl. Eva had no choice but to give up and devote all her energy to the economic development of Shata Country.

In addition to being too tough, Eva can be regarded as a good queen who is diligent and loves the people. Although she can't match the founding monarch of Shata Country, among the previous rulers, she can be said to be a woman who does not let her eyebrows go.

In the blink of an eye, five years have passed......

A sudden envelope was delivered to Seth's desk.

"Judy, book me the nearest flight right away!" Seth turned to his assistant after reading the letter

"Tickets?!, you have an important dinner party in the evening!" asked Judy in surprise

"I don't have time to explain to you, go ahead and book! Seth quickly packed up his business trip and said

Four hours later, Seth made it to the first stop of their ZXC team's adventure, the Primeval Forest Falls. But just as he was sitting in the back seat of the jeep that was about to enter the village and playing with his mobile phone, a very suspicious vehicle was reflected on the mobile phone screen. It suddenly occurred to him that the car seemed to be sneaking after him all along.

"Driver, turn into the lane on the left!" Seth said, leaning on the back of the seat in front of him

"But we're almost there! And there's the jungle on the left, boss!" said the driver

"It's all right! I'll tell you to turn and I'll pay you double!" Seth said

"Boss, sit tight!" the driver suddenly wagged his tail as if he had been beaten, and drove the car into the woods.

The tracking vehicle behind saw that it was about to be thrown off, so it also increased the throttle and turned in. But it didn't wait long for it to get into the woods before it was stopped by Seth's jeep in the middle of the road...

Seth got out of the car unhurriedly, walked to the back door of the car that was stopped by him, poked his head into the room, and said, "Your Highness Eva, I'll come out on vacation by myself, you don't need to come along......

Eva sat in the back row with square-rimmed sunglasses, ignoring Seth's words. Seth stepped forward again, tapping his fingers lightly on Eva's glass. After a while, the glass window in the back row was slowly lowered.

"Don't pretend, I know you're here for Mike. Lead the way, don't waste each other's time here, Seth. Eva said impatiently

"You're sending someone to spy on me?!" Seth asked rhetorically

"I know Mike will definitely contact you. I also know you kid won't tell me. So, you can't blame me. Eva explained

"I'm here for a vacation, but I'm not in the mood now, I'm going back. Seth Rippi said

"If you don't lead the way, Mike should be nearby anyway. And it's just a village in front of me within a radius of a few dozen miles, I'll find it myself!Driver, drive!" Eva said, closing the window

"Hey, hey, don't mess around!" Seth shouted as he chased the reversing car

Soon, Eva and a few of her entourage arrived at the entrance of the village. Seth had no choice but to follow closely. I saw that under a big banyan tree with deep roots and thick leaves at the entrance of the village, a group of villagers gathered and didn't know what they were looking at. Eva leaned in and squeezed in.

"Look, girl. You can only pick up one coin. A young man said and threw two coins into the air

Then, a dirty little girl quickly picked up one of the coins that had just fallen on the ground.

"Hahahaha! I said she'd only pick up the five cents!" the young man said with a sneer and the people around him

At this time, Eva didn't say a word, took out a dozen thick bills from the bag she had brought with her, and threw them into the crowd. Suddenly, the people who were still watching the excitement just now squatted down and were busy picking up money. Eva pulled the little girl out of the crowd. Then he squatted in front of the child, who was about four or five years old, and asked, "What's your name, cutie, and where are your parents?"

The little girl blinked her big watery eyes and replied, "My name is Little Apple." My dad hasn't been feeling well lately and is resting at home. My mother is amazing! She is the prettiest princess in the desert! But I have never met her, and my father said that she went on an expedition to a far, far away place, and it would take ten years. But she's back in five years, hehe. ”

Eva's eyes were a little moist at this time, she touched the little girl's head, smiled and said, "Little cutie, can you take us to see your father? (Seth stands by and looks at them both silently)

"Okay, come with me!" the little girl readily agreed without hesitation

After a while, the little girl jumped up and down with a group of people to a small hillside that was rarely inhabited. She pointed to a simple thatched hut in front of her and said, "My house is there, and Dad should sleep in it." You guys go in first, I'll go next and pick a little flower, and I'll come right over." ”

"Then come back quickly. Eva gently admonished

With that, Eva and the others hurried to the thatched hut.

"Be careful!" suddenly came a man's shout from inside the house

But Eva, who took the lead, stepped on a hidden trap in front of the grass hut. The turf beneath her feet sank instantly, and Eva was about to slide onto the spikes in the pit. Fortunately, the bodyguard behind her, after a reminder from the strange man just now, immediately reached out and grabbed the falling queen. Eva came to her senses, patted the dirt off her pants, and turned her head to look for the man who had just screamed.

"Don't be naughty, apologize to your brothers and sisters!" said the man, as he came out of the thatched hut.

"You said that if a stranger inquired about you, you would lead them to the trap......" Apple's pouting replied

"They're not bad people, silly girls. The man said

Eva and Seth recognized at a glance that the person who came out of the house was Mike, whom they had been looking for for years, but the beard on his face made him look much older...

"You..."

Eva was about to open her mouth to reprimand Mike for saying goodbye, but Mike interrupted her words.

"This young lady, I'm sorry, my daughter is spoiled by me, and she loves to play tricks on people. Don't care. Mike stepped forward and apologized to Eva.

"Mike, it's me, Eva! Eva! It's not funny at all!" said Eva, excitedly grabbing Mike who he saw as a stranger (Eva stumbled upon Mike having a lot of text tattooed on his arm)

"Yes... I'm sorry, this beauty. Did you recognize the wrong person, I... We don't seem to know each otherβ€”" Mike replied earnestly

"Alright, alright, Mike. You're not acting in a Korean drama, so you're pretending to have amnesia. We've been on the road for a long day, so let's get us some water to drink. Seth teased as he patted Mike on the shoulder

"I don't know what you're talking about, but to make up for my daughter's mistake just now, let's come in and have a drink. Mike warmly welcomed everyone in

"Alright. Don't act, it's all goofs, and all your letters have been discovered by Eva. Seth said, drinking the water Mike had brought over

"Mike, you're enough!" Eva frowned as she scolded Mike, who was still giving someone the quilt

"Don't embarrass my dad!" I told you he wasn't feeling well lately!" Little Apple shouted with her arms outstretched in front of Mike

"Hehe, I'm sorry. I don't have a good memory lately. Did I forget to pay for something from you?" Mike said seriously

Seth, who felt that something was not right, immediately grabbed Eva, who was stupid in place, and asked Mike very seriously, "Do you really not remember me? I'm Seth, your good friend, Seth..."

Mike shook his head awkwardly and smiled bitterly.

"Are you Uncle Seth?" asked Apple

"You know me?" Seth immediately turned and asked

"Well, what's your brother's name?" the little girl continued

"His name is Sam, little beauty. Seth replied

Little Apple immediately turned to Mike and said, "Daddy, we don't have enough firewood, so go and chop a few more bundles before it gets dark." ”

"Oh, yes. I forgot about it again. Then you sit down and rest for a while, and I'll come as I go. Mike said and walked out

After the little apple broke away from his father, he whispered to Seth: "Dad, his amnesia is getting worse and worse this year, and he just said a lot of things, and he forgot about it." Ay... But he had told me before, if an Uncle Seth came, he would take him into the cellar's workshop. Dad said he had something for you in there. Here's the key, uncle. ”

Seth hurriedly took the key and motioned for Apple to take him to the cellar below. And after Eva ordered the bodyguards to go out to help Mike chop wood, she hurriedly followed.

Seth used the key to slowly open the dimly lit wooden door of the cellar underneath, and it was pitch black inside. Little Apple skillfully lit the oil lamp inside, and Eva and Seth saw that the walls of the room were covered with dense sheets of paper.

'My name is Mike. My mother's name is Elizabeth. My dad's name is Jack. My sister's name is Anna...'

Little Apple had already had milk once this morning. '

'Jessica, Jessica, that's a familiar name. Who the hell is she? I must remember her today...'

'I forgot to bring money again today, Daddy is sorry, Little Apple, I hope you don't get angry with Daddy sooner...'

Eva looked at the room full of notes, her strong mask suddenly shattered, and tears welled up in her eyes. She clutched her hands tightly over her mouth and sobbed.

Dejected, Seth found an envelope with the words 'Seth Personally Opened' written on the inside of a table in the innermost part of the cellar. He immediately opened it and saw:

'Seth, I'm Mike. Since the last time I accidentally fell down the stairs of the hospital, my memory seems to be starting to deteriorate. However, compared to the situation when I only forgot about things occasionally, my condition has been getting worse and worse lately. If it weren't for Apple's presence every day, I would probably have forgotten about her. In desperation, I can only write to you for help, hoping that you will come and take the little apple. Thankfully, I remember you, my old friend. But I don't know how long I can remember, maybe the next minute, maybe the next second. I don't know, I really don't know. Apple, please, and Eva pleases you. By the way, don't tell Eva about the little apple. By the way, I think I remember writing down the things that little Apple likes to eat on a note, so look for them in this house, if I'm not mistaken. Finally, I hope you can help me tell Eva that I'm fine now and don't have to worry about her. By the way, don't tell me when you're leaving. I'll be sad then, hehe. You just leave me alone in this forest to retire, the city is never for me. Although the village chief was not happy with me letting all the slaves go without permission, I am now an intermediary recognized by both tribes, and they are both very kind to me. So go with confidence, my old fellow. May you be well. PS: The little apple will definitely refuse to go, and there is a unique plant in the box next to it, which is not poisonous, but can make people lose consciousness for a short time. Just let her smell it. '

The screen turns

Little Apple wakes up from a car heading to the airport. She cried and pulled the back window and looked in the direction of the village... Eva hugged her long-lost daughter tightly and cried.

On the other side, Mike, who had just finished chopping wood, walked from the yard to the house. When he found that there was no one inside, he immediately frantically searched everywhere, shouting, "Little Apple, Little Apple, where are you?!"

After he finished speaking, he habitually looked for the words tattooed on his arm.

Left hand: 'Little apples love big red apples.' ''The first thing Apple would say was Daddy. '

On the right hand: '30xx year x month x day, little apple will walk...'

Not enough, Mike rushed to the bathroom and ripped open his shirt. At this moment, Mike in the mirror has Eva's name tattooed all over his chest... He looked at himself in the mirror, tears pouring down his face, even though he couldn't remember who Eva was...
