Section 1 Spots

The ship, still rolling on the waves, accompanied by summer rainstorms, mixed with the suffocating stench of sudden winds, is the story going to end here?

The small town of Bildt smells of autumn

The crystal-smooth grapes hovering over the branches, the pomegranates on the bluestone slabs that seem to be about to give birth to the next generation, and the little pink cherries like lost children following the hot apple sister, and the bilt banana full of infinite fragrance, and

"Bella! Oh, Bella is here! ”

The inexplicable call came from nowhere, but the rattling sound was transmitted quickly, probably under the pretense of the oncoming warm wind.

"It's really Bella, that little man!"

The afternoon sun is mottled with shadows.

"Yes, really, that's him!"

After a period of fleeing like a foreign invasion, the bustling streets were instantly left with only the wisps of remnant sun that seemed to be unable to be suppressed and the 'Bella' in everyone's mouth, Bella Bell. This is the time that belongs to him alone, and the time when no one is at his service.

In the corner, there was only a small curly hair that was reluctant to give up the last residual heat and kept calling at the approaching crowd, he was defending his territory. Probably, only he saw that in the chaotic crowd, it completed the final confrontation with the powerful crowd, and finally broke its leg by the panicked footsteps, what a poor little guy.

He took out his father's dagger, squinted his eyes, and moved slightly towards the alley, the corners of his mouth fluttering slightly with the weirdly raised curve.

What a pathetic little fellow! Outside the walls all around, it was quiet; Inside the wall, there seems to be a slight chatter.

"Oh, what an ignorant puppy! May it be caressed by God in heaven! ”

"This picture of a boy and a stray dog is really incongruous!"

"Have you heard, Count Bella has recently been on the list of people on a nationwide scale!"

"Bella? The big devil? A watchdog for royalty? ”

"Be quiet, it's him." After a pause, he said, "I heard that last month he arrested a lot of monks and people from the church in the city of Valan next door, and when he went back, he was disposed of in the mass grave area of the Earl's Court, where even hungry wolves hated!" ”

"Are they all on the list?"

"Well, I heard that it was all written by the king himself."

"Huh? By the way, how did you know? ”

"Hmph, I have a fellow countryman, that is, Kirby, he is a guard of the Earl's Palace, responsible for the guarding of the Earl's Court and carrying out urgent tasks." The old man arrogantly and proudly brushed his not long beard, and continued to lower his voice and said, "That happened last month, one night, the king's envoy suddenly visited the Earl's palace in the early morning, and Earl St quietly rushed to the imperial city, and when it was almost dawn, the earl returned, gathered a large number of personal soldiers, and quickly went to Valan City, ahem!" ”

"And after that? Don't whet our appetite! ”

The old man's surroundings were filled with all kinds of admiration and longing eyes.

"Then, at dawn the next day, the nearby villagers found that the church had become ashes, and the wind had not blown it away for hours!"

"Blowing? Old man, you brag? ”

The words of a young man made the audience laugh.

"Quiet! I'm not bragging, young man, but I'm short-sighted, Kirby said that the mass grave area of their Earl's Court was full of black corpses and crows attached to it, and the crows thought the place was so bad that they avoided it! ”

Suddenly, everyone in the audience was silent, and before night fell, they heard the mournful cry of the crow.

"What does that have to do with that puppy?"

Out of nowhere, a slightly childish voice that doesn't seem to fit the atmosphere, or a voice that spoils the atmosphere and is obviously ignorant.

Outside the wall, there was a faint wailing of a puppy.

"You don't know this, I just ran faster than anyone else, and both shoes fell off!"

Looking at the barefoot strong man, there was another sullen laugh at the scene.

"I didn't see you all running, it wouldn't be logical if I didn't run! I thought it was a bandit or something, but it turned out to be a little broken child!? ”

"Don't talk nonsense," another old lady sang like a mosquito as she looked around to make sure she was safe, "the child you saw was Bella Bell!" ”

"Bella Bell? Who, haven't heard of it! ”

"Don't interrupt me!" The old lady lowered her head and said slowly, "Bella Bell, the only bloodline of Count Bella Sturt, inherits the responsibility of the future royal watchdog and will also have supreme rights. The next reaper of humanity and the executioner of souls! ”

"And what about the tall and skinny man behind him?"

"Be careful, don't point fingers at that person, you'll be doomed if you are discovered!" The aunt took a sip of water, but no one interrupted her this time, and she just wanted to speak, but was preempted by an aunt.

"That's Si Qi, I heard that he is a person who can't smile, and if anyone sees his smile, it means that it is God's smile."

"God's smile?"

"Well, it's a smile to send you to God, no one knows his full name, and the Count doesn't seem to know it. He was the child's teacher and the first advisor of the Earl's Court, and he had drawn up many plans for murder, assassination, and massacre in the Earl's Court and the royal family, and I heard that the king appreciated him too! ”

With that, rows of eyes were glued to the window, peering through the gap that even ants couldn't pass through, staring out the window at the seemingly stagnant time and frozen air to zero.

"Wow"

Breaking through the shackles of time and space, everyone became nervous, and they wanted to relax a little but gasped back half of their exhaled breath.

"Teacher Siqi, it doesn't seem to like bananas very much!"

The afterglow of the setting sun lingered on the child's blonde hair, reflecting a blinding light and flashing countless pairs of inexplicable eyes within the walls.

"Young master, bananas are peeled by hand, you chop them with a knife but don't remove the skin, and the dog's paws can't be peeled off. Besides, if he took the dagger given by the earl to cut the fruit, the earl would be angry when he knew about it. ”

It's really a shocking voice, cunning with evil spirits.

"Oh? Yes. The Count is not here, will he know? ”

"Hmph, it's really the young master, and it's still stronger than the master's tone!"

"Do you know the breed of this dog, Siqi?"

"The appearance is similar to the German shepherd dog, but there is no fierceness, it is estimated that it is crossbred with other dogs, the young master should know that the dog that comes out of the commoner's house is as weak as the commoner!"

"Spotted."

He peeled a banana with one hand and picked up the puppy, which had become quiet for some time.

"Spotted? yes, that's an interesting name. ”

"You know what?"

"Got it or didn't understand."

"Also, First Strategist of Earl's Court. I'm going to take it home, do you have any suggestions? ”

"Who knows, it looks willing!"

"Yes!"

Outside the walls all around, it was quiet; Inside the walls, it's also quiet. Perhaps it was Si Qi who deterred the panicked commoners with his disdainful eyes and slightly upturned mouth when he left. Indeed, on the other side of the wall, everyone exaggeratedly opened their eyes and their jaws that were about to fall to the ground.

Turning his back to the sunset, which was not rich, he finally opened his charming eyes, and the blue eyes contained infinitely deep confusion, but they were so determined.

"I say, is the Count at home?"

"I went to the Imperial City in the morning, and I haven't come back yet."

"Does the king have any new assignments?"

"It seems to be."

"Which city?"

"Who knows!"

"So, who knows?"

He couldn't help but smile. He is me, Bella Bell; And it, spots; And the whole team of horses that are about to fall in late autumn.
