The news of the death of Pinbei Nematsu's wife surprised Bumando. He was counting on the will left to him by this nobleman to bring him a windfall income, and some aristocratic families in Eruin had a long history, and it would not have been known if the ancestors of Borgnerson had been prominent. It is possible that the legacy will be a large amount of unexpected wealth.

And if Brando hadn't thought so, he wouldn't have specifically mentioned it in his will.

But as Masako said, the only hope now can only fall on the other party's daughter, who is still alive.

Masako "Lorne. The daughter of the little nobleman was named Antitina, and it was rumored that she lived alone on the street of the Squirrel Man in the district of St. Anthony. It's next door to Heizhen Lane. Over the years, a person has lived in seclusion and rarely appeared in front of outsiders. Although it is a little strange for a weak woman to live alone in the depths of celibacy, after all, after being a nobleman, in the hierarchical Eruin, ordinary people dare not insult him.

What's more, such a noble daughter is not special in Pragues, especially a guy like Masako who sells news for a living, and most of the hearsay news is also eight points credible.

Brando analyzed it and also thought that the loser might be right

Of course, on Pragus there was a "Masako." Lorne is said to have more people than the rats in Black Pepper Lane, so much so that rumors often spread in the inn that even dragons and wizards dare to deceive him, which shows that this man is lawless. The young man knew this, too, and so he simply threw his silver sword at the bald fellow's neck, so that the cunning old fox could lead the way.

However, after being taught by the red-bearded Bartom, the idle teenagers raised by Ron the Son, finally understood that the two were not ordinary characters, so they obediently and honestly let the three of them leave the kneeling lair unimpeded.

When the trio arrived at Squirrel Man Street, it was close to evening.

The bronze sunlight passed over the buildings on one side of the old street, casting a thick shadow on the other side of the rows of wooden buildings. Because no one came to light the oil lamps on the side of the road, the whole street fell silent in a lonely darkness. Brando walked through the deserted streets, his cloak sweeping through the stone slabs and the breeze blowing the leaves apart.

He couldn't help but look back.

Seeing this scene of hell, Bartom couldn't help frowning, tugging at his fiery red beard and cursing, "I wasn't like this here a few years ago

Squirrel Row was located near today's Cavalry Avenue, in the St. Anthony district, where the House of Lords was located. It was part of Pragues' once thriving Old Town, formerly a wealthy area inhabited by aristocrats, but it had long since been deserted when the city was last planned, and now it is no different from Black Lane and is even more deserted in the same secluded area.

Because compared to the latter, there are not even hires, adventurers and ** patronized here.

But it's not so populated.

Brando, breathing in the dusty air, suddenly remembered something and replied, "I think it's because of the underground cemetery." ”

It was in this way that Masako smiled a little, and the blade of the sword around his neck made him feel a little cold: "Your Excellency, you may not know as well as us locals. Two years ago, a strange incident occurred in the underground cemetery, when a group of monks and saints of the Havel sect who had been cleaning the tomb as usual in the past entered the tomb and mysteriously disappeared because of the involvement of two high-ranking monks and a priest, which caused a sensation in Pragues at the time

"And then? The Temple didn't bother with that old fellow Nagin, and I don't believe Bartoyao asked.

"Of course not, Lord Bobi was pressured by the Temple to urge the Silver Wingers to send a detachment into the Dial Rope, but they were attacked by monsters, and in the end only one man ran out of his mind and replied.

Bato Yao muttered.

The three of them said as they paced down a blackened staircase into an old apartment. The three-storey wooden building is a bit like suffering from severe asthma, making people squeak as soon as they step on the floors, as if the entire corridor is shivering and about to collapse at any moment.

Seeing such a scene, Brando couldn't help but stop. He stabbed the cobweb-strewn ceiling with the thorn of clear light, and asked, "Pacing, what is this place?" If I'm not mistaken, although Borgnesson has been missing for many years, his family should not be so down. He coughed as he spoke.

"His daughter moved out of her house more than a year ago, as if she was cheated." Masako replied.

The aristocratic daughter Bato Yao muttered.

Brando glanced at his neck and remained silent.

The three of them finally stopped at a door at the far corner of the hallway. Brando put away his sword and knocked on the door. He almost suspected that the cunning old fox was deceiving himself again, but after a while, behind the door was accompanied by a violent cough, a soft question was heard: "Who?".

Brando was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked, "She's not well?" I don't know, Masako shook her head.

Brando thought for a moment, and replied outside the door, "Miss Antitina, I am a friend of your father, Mr. Nematon, and I have some of his things to give you."

There was silence behind the door for a while, and then the soft girl's voice replied, "What is it?" ”

Brando took out the suicide note

"His letter."

Behind the door came the soft sound of a chair being dragged open, then a long hesitation, followed by a sound of footsteps and a soft cough. The girl whispered in a slightly expectant voice behind the door, "I'm sorry, but can I bring the letter in from below?" ”

Brando looked at the crack in the door below, and thought to himself that the little girl was quite alert. But thinking about the other party's experience of a weak girl living alone in the past few years, I am relieved. He nodded and replied, "I understand"

Thank you. ”

The letter was passed through the crack in the door, and there was a sound of dense unwrapping of the letter. Then there was a long silence, and just as Brando wondered what the other party was up to, the door creaked open.

Behind stood a young girl in moon-white pajamas.

Her slender hands held the door, a little panting, but her face was calm, not tall, only up to Brando's chest. The girl had beautiful black hair like a waterfall, which reflected the faint candlelight in the room, and the edge seemed to be gilded, and the edge of the long hair hung down to her waist; She looked at the three people outside the door with her black eyes as warm as water, a little nervous.

"My father, him?" Her gaze finally fell on Brando.

Brando nodded.

The girl's brush-like thick and dense eyelashes drooped.

She thought for a moment and replied, "Actually, I should have expected it. But also good. Father and mother are at least together, and I might feel more at ease when I think so. ”

Antitina's composure surprised Brando, who had thought that this was supposed to be a weak aristocratic lady with little ability to handle things. His gaze looked past the girl and behind him. The small and dimly lit room in which the other party lived was a worn-out bed and a desk, and the dim candlelight on the desk had burned a little bit, reflecting the scattered papers on the floor.

That's pretty much all the belongings.

It looked like the conditions were poor, just like he imagined. But this little girl is still a scholar? Brando couldn't help but think when he saw the thick books on his desk.

"Condolences change, Miss Anti-Thina." Brando thought for a moment and replied.

Antitina looked up at him and coughed twice, and asked, "Do you want to ask about the property mentioned in my father's suicide note, sir?" ”

Bato Yao and Masako on the side heard it in a fog.

"Exactly." Brando hesitated for a moment, then chose to be honest about completing a task as naturally as closing a deal for him. Or the other way around. He didn't feel ashamed to speak. Besides, he thinks that getting this money will be good for him and for this young lady.

But Antitina folded the letter, and the tip of her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly: "But I have never heard my mother mention such a place." ”

"It turned out to be a debt" Masako seemed to hear a little taste, and as soon as he talked about this old business, he was full of energy: "Brando, you leave this matter to me." ”

He said sharply as he sneered at Brando's face with his eyes. He could see that this former hairy young man was now also a character, especially the tall mercenary who followed him, and his skills were even more extraordinary. Masako couldn't find a few people with such strength in his limited cognition, so he couldn't help but compare the other party with a few noble guards he knew, and the result was still that the former was still superior.

I don't know why such a character would be willing to serve Brando, and Masako can't help but be a little more and more cautious at this time.

"No need, Masako." Brando waved his hand to decline his kindness.

"It is natural to repay debts." Masako replied vigorously from behind, but when he saw Brando's fingers touch the hilt of his sword, he immediately shrank his neck and swallowed the second half of the sentence into his stomach. just muttered in a low voice: "There are rules, there are rules"

Brando looked at the girl's clear eyes, as if to discern whether she was lying or not, and there was some worry in the girl's eyes, but not squinting did not look like she was deliberately deceiving. But if he wanted to leave like this, Brando was a little unwilling. He couldn't help but frown. After thinking about it, in the end, he could only smile: "Forget it, it's okay." It's just a matter of effort. ”

After all, Brando can't agree with the idea of stepping on a child, and he can drive people to a dead end for a little profit. Antitina had lost her parents, and now her life is embarrassing, which makes people feel compassionate, what can he want from her? Of course, Masako has a way, but if he does that, it's strange that little Roman doesn't bite him to death, not to mention that it is even worse if Freya knows.

But the girl coughed, but after a while she forced herself to straighten up, and shook her head: "Sir, I don't need your charity. ”

Brando was stunned.

Four: Discharged from the hospital, infusion for six days. The four oceans. Then the doctor kicked me out, saying that there was a holiday for the Spring Festival, there were no beds, and I would come back for surgery in March. The pain is terrible, and I can't eat meat for the next month or two, I can only eat porridge and eat vegetarian, God".
