144. Farewell
Under the command of Bruno, the reconstruction work was in full swing, and he was worried that Du Yuhan and his party would be left out in the cold, so he sent his henchmen to accompany him.
And Du Yuhan and Kevin were regarded as the most important VIPs because of their great contributions to the battle, and they traveled all over the Aoke Mansion under the leadership of their henchmen, and even some surrounding towns were not missed. Eating, drinking and playing are paid by the entourage, and they have experienced a lot of customs and customs on the way, and they forget to return.
However, as a competent modeler, Du Yuhan still has not forgotten the main purpose.
Seeing that it is less than a month before the registration deadline of the model artist competition, despite all the reluctance in my heart, the time of parting has arrived.
"Uncle, are you really not going back with us?" Kevin frowned, his eyes very reluctant.
Noyce shook his head with a smile, took the other party's hand and patted it gently, "No, no, I've been here for half a year, and I feel like I'm used to it." Now let me move the place, but I have tossed this old bone a little. β
"Butβ"
"Besides, in the past, I focused on the history of the Lindote Kingdom and the Luna Principality, and my research on the Paman Kingdom was still very superficial. This is a rare opportunity to conduct in-depth research, and I want to take advantage of it. β
With that, Noyce's eyes flashed with excitement.
Looking at the familiar fanatical expression of the other party, Kevin knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, his uncle would not leave with him.
Seeing Kevin's worried look, Bruno solemnly promised, "Don't worry, one day when I, Bruno, will never let Noyce's predecessors be harmed in any way." β
"You see, Bruno has also made a promise, you can rest assured." Patting Kevin's shoulder, Du Yuhan comforted.
Since the other party said so, although he was still not at ease, he could only nod and agree.
"The convoy will send you to the nearest waypoint, I've already taken care of the way, you just need to follow the convoy, you can reach the waypoint at noon the next day, and leave the rest to them." At Bruno's signal, the escort behind him geared up and saluted them.
"Thanks, buddy." Du Yuhan tapped the other party's shoulder and smiled heartily.
"It's my pleasure to help you." Bruno shook his head, "What's more, you are the great benefactor of our clan. If it weren't for your generosity, we'd be ...... by now."
"What are you talking about? You're here again. Du Yuhan frowned, "If it's a brother, don't mention this stubble to me again, otherwise I'm really going to beat someone." β
Seeing that Bruno still wanted to speak, Langdon next to him hurriedly interrupted: "Heywood, I'm also bothering you to help me explain." β
"Yo, do you still decide to stay and help build a new style of socialism?" Du Yuhan looked at Bruno teasingly.
Although he didn't know what socialism meant, Langdon could still hear the joke between the lines, "My legs were healed by the tribe, and the great kindness will never be forgotten." There's a lot of waste waiting to be done here, and I'll see if there's anything that can helpβ"
"Eh, okay, I'll just say it casually, how can you be so serious......" he muttered and laughed, "Who doesn't know who you're staying for, I'm not blind." β
Hearing this, Langdon smiled happily, but Bruno made a big red face.
"You have to take care of yourself over here, and we will explain it to Heywood over there, don't worry." Kevin smiled and glanced at Bruno, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Well, I will." Langdon smiled at Kevin, "Heywood will trouble you." β
Looking around, Du Yuhan found that he didn't see the familiar little boy, "Where's Vic?" β
Unexpectedly, when Bruno heard this, his face immediately darkened.
Uh, what's going on?
Just when Du Yuhan was very puzzled, Langdon smiled sullenly, "As soon as Vic heard that you were leaving, he immediately ran to pack his luggage and clamored to go on an adventure with you." β
"Huh?" Du Yuhan was stunned.
Bruno is a full brother, so he raised Vic to be a full brother. As far back as he could remember, as soon as Bruno was gone, Vic became very anxious and clamored for his brother.
Why did you propose to go out on an adventure this time?
"What about the others?" Kevin was surprisingly concerned about this.
"I ordered me to be grounded in the room." Bruno said coldly, remembering that his younger brother, who had been well-behaved and obedient all night last night, dared to threaten himself by running away from home, he was angry.
Du Yuhan scratched his head.
In fact, in his opinion, Vic is not young, and according to the customs of this world, some children have begun to learn the art of survival from their fathers. What's more, boys should suffer more so that they can stand up to the sky and the earth in the future, instead of being protected like flowers.
But after all, this is someone else's family matter, and I think about it in my heart, and I have no qualifications to put a beak.
Feeling that the atmosphere was a little cold, Kevin smiled and made a round: "It's not early, let's go on the road." β
Bruno cleared his throat, "When the affairs of the tribe are done in the future, I will definitely go to your game with Langdon." β
"I'll be waiting for you." Du Yuhan grinned.
"I wish you success and take care." With that, Bruno gave a knightly salute.
"Take care." After returning the salute, the two boarded the carriage, and under the reluctant gaze, the carriage slowly disappeared from everyone's field of vision.
Letting the others go first, Langdon and Bruno strolled side by side on the yellow grass.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Bruno's mood was still a little gloomy, he expected that last night's dispute had hurt the other party's heart. After all, since the death of Bruno's parents, it was Bruno who raised the young Vic. As Heywood's brother, he knew it very well.
"Still thinking about last night?"
Glancing up at Langdon, Bruno didn't speak.
Langdon gripped his big warm hand and rubbed the rough texture on it, "Actually, Vic is not young, and he is beginning to have his own ideas. I can understand your love and concern for him, but many times, I also have to listen to him tell his inner demands. β
"I know." After a long silence, Bruno slowly opened his lips. "Blind doting is not a way to love, and the heavy responsibility of this leader will have to be shouldered by him sooner or later."
"So what else do you have to worry about?" Langdon smiled.
Bruno opened his mouth, but eventually shook his head with a wry smile.
That's not what worries him.
Since Vic came to his senses, both his personality and habits have changed dramatically. Whether it is Langdon or Du Yuhan, there is very little contact with his younger brother, and in their opinion, Vic's problem is just that the child has grown up, and he has an ordinary temper, and he will be fine in a few days.
But only he knows that Vic is not making trouble at all, but a different person.
Whether it is hobbies or behavioral habits, there is a huge contrast with before. If you insist on saying that something hasn't changed, it's probably because you love to eat......
I hope it's just my own worries.
Sighing to himself, Bruno took Langdon's hand back, "Go back, there's still a lot of work to do." β
Langdon nodded softly.
Just as the two of them quickened their pace to go back, one of the guards ran towards him in a panic, and one of them did not stand firmly, and fell to the ground with a pop.
"What's going on?" Bruno took a closer look and discovered that the man was a member of the Guard, who was responsible for Vic's security.
"Chief, Chief! Big, it's a big deal! The guard stood up breathlessly.
"Say!" Hearing this, his eyes tightened.
Could it be that the enemy is back again?
"Vic, Master Vic is missing!"
Both Bruno and Langdon were stunned.
"What?!"
*****
Just when the Aoke Mansion was already making a fuss about Vic's disappearance, Du Yuhan also felt a little confused in the carriage hundreds of miles away.
"Who do you say you are?"
"Deaf, are you? I've said it a few times. Vic had a fresh fruit in his mouth and a mouthful of warm milk in his mouth, and he almost choked on it.
"I say, I'm Hill! Hope! You! β
He roared excitedly, and the crumbs of bread in his mouth sprayed far away. The light brown silk coat was covered with mud, loose on thin shoulders, flaxen hair was a mess, white feet were dirty, and only a straw shoe hung on it, and he looked like a little beggar who hadn't eaten for days.
However, the dog next to him did not dislike it at all, and kept squeaking and barking around Vic.
Having said that, this qiΔ has to be thanked to the dog.
Since the departure, the dog in the car has been squeaking restlessly. One moment he went to the corner arch, and the other he was buried in the pillow and jumped, as if he was looking for something.
The two observed for a long time, but they couldn't see anything famous, so they simply went with it.
The carriage traveled for most of the day, Du Yuhan and Kevin were eating some dry food casually in the soft couch, but they didn't expect that there was some movement on the bottom of the car.
At first, he thought that a rat had run into the plywood, but he didn't want to lift the bottom plate, but he saw Vic huddled in the storage room covered in mud.
Taken aback by this situation, Du Yuhan just wanted to inform the captain of the guard and quickly inform Bruno of the news.
But he didn't want to be stopped by Kevin smiling.
Looking at the posture of "whoever grabs food from me, I will fight with whomever I want", I don't know how long Vic has been hiding here. I didn't think that this kid had just eaten a few bites, and suddenly came up with a nonsense.
After eating all the food in the car, Vic finally burped contentedly, caressed the dog in his arms, and slumped on the soft couch like a big man. But on a seven or eight-year-old child, how to look at it.
"If there's anything you want to ask, just ask."
Looking at the look of grace on his face, Du Yuhan swept the other party up and down, except for the appearance has not changed, he looks like a neurotic who has just stepped into adolescence and feels that he can coax and coax him every day.
This kid couldn't have just been hit in the head when he was hiding under the car......
"Ciel?" Du Yuhan looked at each other suspiciously.
Glancing at him disdainfully, Vic picked his teeth with his tail fingers, seemingly disdainful of answering the question.
Du Yuhan didn't forget that what was sealed in the previous iron vault was actually the soul of model master Hill. But Hill's time is thousands of years away from now, how could Vic suddenly say that he is Hill?
He knows that children like to say that they are their idols, but they can find a similar one by pretending to be an idol, right? In his opinion, Bruno is a very good object.
What's more, judging from Vic's loss of soul, he doesn't think the other party will know Hill, at least in terms of IQ, it's impossible-
Hey? Lost souls?
Hill...... Soul......
Du Yuhan was stunned at first, then his eyes widened violently, and he looked at Kevin in disbelief.
"Ciel?"
Seeing that the other party finally reacted, Kevin smiled and nodded, but in exchange for Du Yuhan's wide open mouth.
"Ciel?!"
