Chapter 370: A New Understanding
Take off the eyecloth and untie the rope. [][][]
Xia Lan stood by and watched quietly the painful scene of Hermia and Lady Adelin, time flies, the years are thin, waiting stupidly in place, obsessed with taking a look, just because of the regrets in your heart, refusing to let go, some people you think you can meet again, but this side, it is better not to see. The pain of meeting, the pain of parting, and the tears condensed in the corners of the eyes can't tell the heart of the heart.
"Mr. Charlan, you must know Hartley's real name, can you please tell me?" Hermia's mother choked with tears in her hands, sobbing and choking.
"Does it make sense?" Xia Lan asked, tilting her head.
"I just want to know that what I've been waiting for all these years isn't a false dream." Lady Adeline wept bitterly.
Xia Lan shook his head, he didn't answer, but walked straight out of the warehouse, a woman's plea and Holebas's friendship, which is more important, he was very sober, so, he showed his choice with his actions.
"Mr. Xia Lan, don't you want to tell us about this little request?" Seeing her mother so sad, Hermia suddenly stood up and shouted loudly towards Xia Lan's distant back. "Have you forgotten what Jì said to us in Brito?"
"I haven't forgotten it, but I've never given you any promise." Xia Lan paused and said calmly.
"I see! It turns out that you and that man are all the way! You have united to deceive us! Hermia seemed to have lost her mind and said hysterically.
"Deception? You're thinking too much. Xia Lan shook her head and said without looking back: "This is not the place you should stay, go back to the hotel." ”
Park under the street lamps in front of the abandoned warehouse. Charan glanced at the dark end of the street. White Sail District. Abandoned warehouses, No. 52, No. 132, there seems to be some fateful connection in the dark, why did Sir Hollebas choose the location of the kidnapping here? Coincidental? Accidentally? Unspeakable.
Upon returning to the inn, Hermia immediately began to pack her salutes, deciding that Port Louis could not stay any longer. They had to get out of here, out of this sad place that made her mother, who had thought that Xia Lan was the one who was on their side, but she didn't realize that he was essentially no different from the man.
"If you want to give up on treating your mother's condition, I don't mind if you choose to leave."
At this time, Xia Lan's voice came faintly from outside the door.
Hermia stopped the movement of her hand, and gradually returned to her lost reason, her eyes were red and swollen, and she clenched her fists, and her beautiful face was full of unwillingness and anger, yes. The main purpose of their visit to Port Louis was to heal their mother's illness, and meeting the man was secondary. If she really chooses to leave willfully, she will regret and feel guilty for the rest of her life once her mother dies of illness.
Hermia looked back at the door, but Charan's figure was gone.
Sitting on the ground, Hermia clutched her legs tightly, her head drooping on her knees, tears slowly sliding down her eyes, if they hadn't come to Port Louis with Charrain, they wouldn't have had so many things happening tonight, but at this point, they had no room for regret.
The midnight bells echo in Port Louis, accompanied by the hazy night, accompanied by the cool sea breeze, slowly intoxicated in the dim light, and the thoughts flow quietly in the wordless.
"Pilar, what's going on with your neck?"
Back at the Governor's House, Sir Hollebus got out of the car and saw the butler who greeted him at the door, but the bloated gauze wrapped around his neck was unusually conspicuous.
When the other party opened his mouth to speak, Holebas suddenly waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it when I go back." ”
Soon, the group came to the bright, beautifully decorated living room, and after signaling the servants to stand down, only Pilar and the two expressionless men were left in the huge living room.
"Pilar, you can say, is there something going on in the house?" Holebas absentmindedly took a sip of his tea.
Pilar didn't speak, but only observed Holebas before cautiously asking, "Lord Sir, have you already met that young man?" ”
"Huh? How do you know? Holebas was slightly stunned, he put down the teacup, and said with a condensed expression: "Could it be that you have seen him before?" ”
"Yes, because the wound on the neck of the subordinate was caused by the other party." Pilar smiled wryly, and then he peeled off the bloated gauze around his neck, revealing the hideous wound that had stopped bleeding inside.
"Pilar, is it that too many leisurely days have slowed down your skills, I didn't expect you to lose to such a young man in shame." At this moment, a man standing beside Sir Hollebas uttered a sarcastic voice. "Presumably you exposed Sizz's whereabouts, right?"
"Necid, don't forget who left the wound on your chest back then!" Pilar said coldly as he stared at the guy who spoke.
"You...... If it weren't for Lord Sir, I would have avenged the shame I had done! Necid said hatefully.
"Waiting for you at any time!" Pilar said dismissively.
Holebas frowned lightly and said, "Pilar, does that young man really have such strength?" ”
"The subordinates guarantee with their lives, the strength of the other party is definitely above any of us, if I am not miscalculated, his strength is already about to step into the peak level." Pilar said solemnly. "If the other party is our enemy, our subordinates can be sure that we will definitely die under the other party's sword."
"How is that possible? Pilar, are you sure you're not exaggerating? Necid disbelieved.
"If you want to die, I'm happy to advise you to try his strength." Pilar scoffed.
"But he's so young......," Holebas wondered as he thought of the other man's age.
"He's a genius, a genius as we imagined." Pilar said with a solemn expression. "If you can win the allegiance of such a strong man, I can guarantee that in the future, Lord Sir, you may even use his power to become the president of the council of the city-state of Estak trade."
Suddenly, Holebas was silent for a long time.
"We'll meet again, let's stop for today, I'm tired and need to rest."
Holebas stood up and waved his hand tiredly.
"Lord Jazz—"
Listening to Pilar's slightly anxious voice, Holebas frowned, "What's wrong?" Is there anything else? ”
"That's right, you see...... ...... my injuries today," Pilar smirked, pointing to the scar on his neck.
"Let's go to the treasury and report it yourself."
Holebas, who was familiar with Pilar, shook his head a little unhappily, then turned and left.
"Scrooge!"
As Hollebas left, Necid glanced at Pilar out of the corner of his eye and said disdainfully.
"Huh-"
In this regard, Pilar ignored Necide directly, in his eyes, a person like Necid who only knows cultivation and does not understand the joy of life is a waste of life to live in this world! ――
The thinking of the past two days has not been very good, at first it was quite smooth, but gradually it suddenly seemed like a power outage, and the whole person was at a loss. (To be continued!)
