Winter is not a good season, and Durin has a deeper appreciation for this saying.

He had heard people say this before, whether it was this world, or the world in his dreams, especially for the old people.

After a long winter, people go outside, and maybe this is when they realize that they have lost some friends.

When we were young, the years were our companions, growing up with us, curiously exploring the world in the fast and slow progress.

When we are young, we are our competitors, and we always need to gain more knowledge and experience in a limited time.

When we are in the prime of life, we are our best friends, and we are accustomed to it being by our side, accompanying us every moment of our lives.

In old age, it becomes a wretched worm because it has to cry and kill its companions with whom it has spent countless days and nights, and then leave pretending to be indifferent.

It is ruthless and tender, it always surprises us and it gives us sorrow.

Sophia's departure touched Durin more than Graff's death, and it struck him directly in the heart, punching him in the chest and suffocating him.

He and Graff hadn't seen each other for years, and people were very real and scary creatures, and whether you admit it or not, you would always forget about the things or people that rarely appeared in the chase with time.

You used to cry so your graduation that you couldn't even slap yourself to stop the tear ducts that burst the embankment, but now you may not even remember whether the guy sitting in the fourth position on the left hand side of the second row was male or female, what his name was, and what he looked like.

You think you'll remember everything, but the years will tell you that it's just a joke you played with yourself.

After stroking the girl on the phone, Doolin asked Dove to book him a ticket to Montel, the sooner the better.

Sophia had spoken privately to Durin that her biggest concern was her little daughter and the malicious gazes that spied on everything she had. She didn't think that her little daughter would be able to guard everything they had in common like herself, and she couldn't stop the greedy desires of those people.

She was worried, fearing that those who were full of ugly desires would ruin the cause she was holding on, that they would hurt her little daughter for it, and that Doolin had given her assurances at that time.

As long as she is alive, make sure that her little girl is not in danger and inherits everything she needs to inherit.

Now is the time for him to keep his promise.

Durin rarely had a serious expression on his face, and Dove quickly booked the first train for him at five o'clock the next morning.

Nearly twenty hours later, Doolin arrived in Montel.

I have to say that the empire's science and technology have advanced by leaps and bounds in recent years, and the journey that used to take two or three days now only takes more than ten hours, and the empire's steam locomotive technology has led the whole world.

In the past, the speed of 60 kilometers per hour has long been an upper limit that some experts and scholars cannot break, but today, the speed of 100 kilometers per hour is not the upper limit.

When Durin had come out of the station, he got into the carriage and was going to see the old woman one last time. (A number of accompanying bodyguards and descriptions of their behavior are omitted here...... ）

"We are going to bury Ms. Sophia in the cemetery of the Church of the Gods, as requested by Ms. Sophia. The driver was Sofia's former right-hand man, who had been managing many of the transactions of the city of Montel in place of Sofia during her serious illness.

Durin was in no mood to speak, and Mr. Assistant was well aware of it, so he only said this and then closed his mouth.

In a trance, the car had stopped outside the church, and Duhrin looked at the cathedral, which was full of the architectural style of the Guarte dynasty, and sighed silently again.

He walked into the church, which was overcrowded, but at a glance he saw the crystal coffin in the church, and after the undertaker dressed up carefully, the old woman seemed to be asleep, lying peacefully in her small world, separated from the outside world by a layer of crystal.

With a smile still on her face, Durin stood in front of the crystal coffin and looked at it for a moment before turning to look at the people seated in the church.

There are a lot of people here, almost crowded, there are some people who are very well-dressed, and more people who are ordinary people, who may have different statuses, different incomes, but they all have one thing in common, and that is that they have been helped by Sophia.

Sophia is not old, she is not really related to the old character, but her life before meeting Durin has overdrawn her life force, so that she is only in her fifties and looks like she is sixty years old.

Even a small cold can take her life.

Among them, the people sitting in the front rows have a completely different temperament from the people in the back, and they are all Sophia's subordinates.

Durin looked at the red-eyed girl who was sitting on the left side and cried, walked up to her, hugged her gently, and then looked at the others, "Someone knows me, someone doesn't know me, let me introduce myself, my name is Durin." ”

The church, which was still a little noisy, immediately fell silent, and Durin pressed one hand on the girl's shoulder, and said with a heavy face, "Sophia is a lady I respect very much, and her enthusiasm and love for life have infected me, and I believe that many people have also been infected. ”

"She always looks like she doesn't have enough time, she always does her best to help everyone in need, she is a good person, an example to learn from. ”

"When Sophia wasn't so sick, she told me she was worried. ”

"She was afraid that someone would ruin her career, she was afraid that someone would hurt this poor girl, and she did not forget to ask me to be a person of forgiveness when she left. ”

"Today, I have decided to respect her request ......", Durin looked at everyone in the church, "I don't know whose heart is dirty, and I don't want to deal with these things at this special time, after today, you take your family out of the empire and go where you want to go, and then inform me." ”

"I will give you a fortune that is enough for you to live a prosperous life, and I will not hold anyone accountable, let alone do anything to hurt you. ”

"But get out of my sight with your filthy hearts and ugly souls, out of the land that Lady Sophia loves, out of this frontier once ruled by kings and gods!"

"If you don't want to leave and want to stay, then please clean up your ugliness, at least maintain your dignity, and don't do anything that makes people angry, otherwise I will make him regret it, and I will let him shed his last drop of blood before dying!"

"Killing doesn't stop at one person, hatred needs blood to dissolve!"

"In the name of my Durin Kersma, the former kings and the gods!"
