It's already afternoon.

The weather in this island country has always been capricious, and the sky was clear just now, but suddenly the clouds filled the entire sky, and in the entanglement and tumbling, drops of water fell from the sky.

The drizzle keeps burrowing into the human body with a slight chill, and the dull air can't help but give people a very uncomfortable feeling.

"Humph! It's raining again! What a hell of a place! On the streets of the town, Agnes frowned and looked up at the sky dissatisfied, "Everything in this country is unappetizing. ”

The rain dripped down her umbrella as if it had woven a curtain of water that was not tight.

"Yes, this is a country that deserves to be cursed, miss." The tall man standing next to her replied in a low voice. "Everyone here is boring and cold."

"Be careful not to let the people around you hear you!" After hearing his answer, Agnes couldn't help but smile slightly, "Then again, since this kind of place is so bad, isn't it good to use it as a place for that person to die?" ”

"It's really good." After a moment of silence, the man straightened up and replied respectfully.

The man next to him probably didn't understand what the two of them were saying, but he wouldn't refute it, because he wouldn't have refuted any of Agnes' opinions in the first place.

"When was the last time we were here?" Passing by a roadside inn, Agnes walked under the eaves and swung her umbrella slightly, throwing off the drops of water. "I think it was eight years ago, right?"

"Yes. Nine years ago, to be exact. At that time, we came to England because we traced the traces of that person. The man's tone was still very respectful. Later, we found out that he had already left by boat from Liverpool, so we soon left by boat. I stayed for about two or three months. ”

"You remember it so well!" Agnes couldn't help but laugh, and then put the umbrella away and held it in her hand.

Then, as if sighing something, she lowered her gaze slightly, "When I first set off, I thought it would only take two or three months to complete, but it turned out to be ...... Hehe, two or three months here and two or three months there, so many years have passed in a flash......"

Although there was a smile in her expression. But there was not much of a smile in his tone.

The man lowered his head, not knowing how to answer her exclamation.

"It's been so many years, and before we can feel it, everything has changed." Agnes smiled and opened the door of the hotel with the tip of her umbrella, "I really want to get things done quickly......

The man's shoulders twitched slightly, he felt that the young lady was in a strange state today.

And he could vaguely guess why.

This morning, in order to get the latest news, she looked for a recent newspaper and read it, and then she saw the news of Charles de Treville's visit to the United Kingdom.

Since then. He found Agnes's attitude a little strange, though he pretended to be very calm on the surface.

"Could it be that Mr. Treville is here to protect that man?" Although he knew that it was not appropriate to ask this question, in order to complete the task, he had to hesitate for a long time before finally asking it.

"No...... No. He won't. Charles promised me that I wouldn't interfere again, and I believed him. He came for a country visit, and there was no way he could control that person also came to England. He can't be blamed. Hearing the man's question, Agnes visibly paused for a moment. But soon it was back to normal, "10 years on. He's grown up, and he's become a great man, a great man of nation, and he's completely different from that person. Since he said that he would not care about this matter in the future, what reason did he have to meddle again? We're just going to kill a homeless man who has abandoned the surname Tréville and won't cause him much trouble. ”

Her tone was categorical, but it was more hopeful than believing.

Come on, a bad seed is a bad seed, aren't the members of the Tréville family like this for generations? The old and older are bastards, so how good can the little ones be? He's the same badass to me.

The man couldn't help but slander in his heart, but of course he didn't say it.

Unlike the gnashing of teeth of hatred for that man, Agnes was full of love for that man's son.

Maybe it's because he's the only remaining blood and bone of his sister; Maybe it's because I've taken care of him since he was a child.,So subconsciously it's already my own child.。

Thinking of this, the man's heart suddenly felt a slight pain.

"Your sister will pray for you in heaven."

"I think she'll think I'm so incompetent, and I've spent so much time still getting things done!" Agnes smiled wryly and shook her head, "My sister has loved to teach me since I was a child. ”

Then she reached out and made a gesture.

The man understood, took out his wallet from his pocket, and prepared to book a room with the store.

"Ah, not much?" When the man opened his wallet and was about to go over to pay the bill, the sharp-eyed Agnes saw that there was not much money left in the wallet, so she frowned slightly unhappily, "Hmph, in this country, it is true, and it costs money faster than other places." ”

"It's a bit more expensive during this time." The man replied a little embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry, I should try to save on my side." ”

"It's okay, it's going to cost money to go around, so how can you blame it? It's better to say that your astute eye has saved me a lot of money, and we can always chase him along the way. Agnes waved her hand nonchalantly, "It seems that everything can be done this time, so it doesn't matter if the rest is spent, make sure he can't run." ”

"But......" The man hesitated.

"But what? After so many years, my little money should have been spent a long time ago, so what's the point of feeling distressed now? Agnes replied with a smile, as if she didn't take it seriously, "Money, anyway, a person spends so much in his life, and it's nothing if he spends it all, the only trouble is that it is impossible to find a husband now - who can marry without a dowry these years?" Not to mention an old girl like me...... However, it doesn't matter, I can live on my own, my aunt has been an old girl all her life, and I don't think she is very uncomfortable...... It's good to get used to everything. So, you don't have to worry about me, just do your thing. ”

Yes, it's been almost a decade.

She herself had no idea how much time she had already spent on this journey—and of course, an unexpected amount of money. Originally, part of the property left by her father to her had been almost exhausted during so many years of travel, and there was very little left.

In the footsteps of that man, she had traveled far and wide—almost in circles along all of Europe—and had almost involuntarily become a veteran traveler.

The difference is that the person is on the journey to enjoy all kinds of life's pleasures, and to travel in a leisurely manner; And she can only rely on the anger and obsession of avenging her relatives, wandering around. Just trying to catch up with the time difference between her and that person's journey of nearly ten years had exhausted her mental strength, so she didn't stay anywhere for too long, let alone enjoy the pleasure of the journey.

When she returned home once, she realized that her longing for her hometown was so intense. The affluent life, the grand banquets, the wise conversations of her friends, the never-ending performances of the opera house, and the glorious scenes, all of these things were etched in her memory.

However, she may have been lonely, and she may have missed her hometown countless times, but there was never any discouragement or hesitation on her face.

The man suddenly felt as if his chest was blocked by something heavy, and his nose was slightly sore.

Looking at Agnes looking up thoughtfully, the man who was talking and laughing just now suddenly clenched his fists tightly in a place where her back could not be seen.

He wanted to take this opportunity to say, "A woman like you will be loved even if she doesn't have a dowry, like me, ......," but he found that he didn't have the courage to say it.

Only when she has fulfilled her wish can she be qualified to say such things......

Because of his fault, the last time he had saved that man from a desperate situation, he swore that he would never make the same mistake again this time - to send that bastard to the hell he was destined to go to, even at the cost of his own life, and to free this young lady from this chase that had wasted almost ten years of her youth.

"We'll get it done for you, miss." The man bowed slightly, "This time he can't run away again." We've identified his current tracks, and we're just a few last steps away...... And we're not going to let him slip away, we're going to catch him, we're going to deliver him to you, and you're going to have a good time to put it all to rest. ”

"It's great that you can think of that! That's right, there is absolutely no room for a miss this time. Agnes smiled and nodded, "And one more thing - we need to be as secretive as possible so that no one else is embarrassed about this, you see?" You should know what I mean - the Charles have managed to get to where they are today, and we need to turn this revenge into a secret that will never see the light of day, and let everything be buried under the loess. ”

"I'll keep this secret forever." The man bowed again, indicating that he would never disobey her will. "But it's for you, not for him." (To be continued......)
