Chapter 445: The Return [2]

Watching Ed suffocate to death in the wilderness, Kevin seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

On a beach chair under a parasol, he sipped on frozen juice and criticized Durin for giving Ed such a punishment...... It's so exciting.

"You know, at the moment of the car accident, time seemed to be very, very slow, I always thought that what was presented to us in the movie was artistic, but I finally believed, at that moment time seemed to be very slow, I could even see a piece of car paint slowly drifting in front of my eyes, but there was nothing I could do!", Kevin put down his glass and talked to Doolin about how he felt when he was hit.

"I watched the big truck with a row of lights crash into my body, I saw the door smash in, I wanted to struggle, I wanted to get out, but my body couldn't keep up with my consciousness at that moment. I know I'm going to die...... No, I'm going to die, and I can't survive that kind of impact. Damn it, my first thought was that if I couldn't get out, something would hold me in my seat!"

"I want to thank God, who responded to me and saved my life, even though at the cost of what I might become a cripple later. What I want to do now is to find a church when I recover, and I want to be a Lamb of God!", he said, drawing a cross on his chest, "Thank God, God Almighty!"

"I'm sorry I interrupted ......," Durin waved his hand, and the two young men walked towards Ed's body, they had to put him down, and then find a place to burn him, and they couldn't leave much evidence behind, "If you believe in God, what about your Lord of the Devil? Everyone knows that you are the spokesman of the devil, the devil's believer with pus on the soles of your feet." ”

Kevin couldn't help but smile and said, "Those are two different things, you know, faith has nothing to do with making money, faith represents my conversion to God and his old man, this is my spiritual home." And making money is my means of making a living, it is my pursuit of materialism, can material and spiritual be confused?", he spread his hands and showed a very regretful expression, "Of course not!"

"But I have heard that if you take refuge in God, you cannot do anything bad, otherwise God will not only not bless you, but will punish you. ”

Kevin was stunned for a moment, as a scholar with excellent character and learning, he didn't know much about these things that the gods were talking about, he asked "Is there any", and then said indifferently, "Then forget it, I think it's better to enjoy the happiness of reality, and when I'm about to finish, we're talking about faith." ”

Seeing the fire raging in the distance, he shook the handle on the beach chair and laid it flat, "Okay, you can send me back." ”

Durin had the truck start and the others carried Kevin as they asked, "What are you going to do next?"

"What to do, of course, revenge, I am the greatest lawyer in the Empire, I almost died in my hometown, do you know how angry I am now?! Don't worry, this time I will use a legal and reasonable way to make them understand the consequences of murdering a lawyer, the key is that the lawyer has not been killed by them, I will make their families not even wear pants, and make their whole generation hate what those two bastards did!"

In this society, there are many "incorrect" behaviors that are carried out as unspoken rules by people, such as the staff of the telegraph office who install and use the telephone, they do not need to pay any installation and use fees, they only need to buy a telephone themselves. For example, the employees in the movie theater and their families don't have money to watch movies, as long as they don't crowd out the seats of those who buy tickets. For example, the employees of the power bureau do not need to pay for the use of electricity, they not only do not need to pay, but also can eat large households in their own jurisdiction, in this era when the meter box is easy to do tricks, electrician is a very great profession.

For example, some officials are not required to pay taxes.

Government officials and military officers like Alex and Ed, and their family members are not required to pay a penny in taxes, and are able to enjoy the benefits and policies of other taxpayers, but there is no provision in imperial law that officials do not pay taxes. This can make these people lose money and can't even wear pants, and it is difficult to collect taxes, especially this kind of elite class, and they should be big taxpayers, but now they don't have to pay a penny.

If the State Administration of Taxation had known about the incident, it would have cooperated with Kevin's move, thus sounding the alarm bell for those officials to tell them that it was almost time to pay the money.

After sending Kevin back to the ward to continue recuperating from his injuries, Durin left with Dover, and before leaving, Dover asked Dover what he thought, and he didn't want to stay here because it didn't belong to him. This period of life has fully made him realize that the gap between himself and Vivien is too big.

Before he actually intervened in Vivien's life, he had no idea that before eating, the chef would prepare a bowl of lemon "soup" that seemed very tasty to wash his hands, which he thought was for drinking. He didn't know that it would take more than an hour for the two of them to eat a meal together, and that there were almost twelve dishes before and after, and that each dish would not be eaten in its entirety, and sometimes he would see Vivien only take a small bite, and then the dishes worth a dozen yuan would be sent back to the kitchen.

Sometimes people eat it, and sometimes they just throw it out.

Every detail of life has an inexplicable sense of ritual, as if such a life is the real aristocratic life, they live in the eyes of others, while the Buddha only wants to live himself. Completely different worlds are barely put together, and there will be no second way to go except for violent collisions, and perhaps he and Vivien are the strangers they know most well, so that they can live together. As for the children, he would give them back to Vivien, but only when the children needed to go to school.

He wanted his children to have a perfect childhood, not to sit in a room and have a group of governesses dictating to him, telling him how to put his hands and how much to provoke the corners of his mouth, which is not something that children of this age should enjoy. Children of this age should be crawling in the mud and then going home with their butts beaten and blooming, and they should climb high God to challenge the joy of exploring nature.

Vivien also seems to know that such an ending is good for both of them, except for saying goodbye, she did not keep Du Buddha, everyone has their own trajectory, and now they should return to their own trajectory.

As for the shocking case of Ordo?

That has nothing to do with them!

After returning to Otis, Dover expressed surprise at how much had changed during his absence, especially the fall of Colylls, which surprised Dover, "He's finished, so what about our railroad?"

He sat on the couch in Doolin's office and nibbled on fresh fruit, and the changes in the city were evident in both the big and the small details. When he and Durin first came here, the apples were dry and without moisture, and they could be dried by leaving them in the sun for a few days. But look at the present, these fruits can be pinched out of the water, this is the change, this is the new thing brought about by the development of the city of Otis.

"I'm putting the Federans in charge now, don't worry. Doolin signed a document that granted the right to operate the city's public transport, leaving Doolin to choose between the other two shortlisted companies. It's just that his appetite has been nourished by Chester, so he asks the town hall to have a certain amount of management and complete supervision, although both companies have given an unbearable attitude on the surface, but privately handed over new plans.

Du Lin chose one of them, and the sincerity was not bad, and he signed it. After the other party gets the approval of this document, they can start to operate this matter, and it may take half a month to see the brand-new buses running on the roads of Otis City, but this is not far off, is it.

He closed the document and continued to explain: "After the fall of Colills, he left too much territory, and at the same time lost the most powerful position against the Federation merchants, those people in the Federation want to come in, they must need a 'work' that can be handled, even if the joint builders can't complete the project, there will be other Federation people who will take the initiative to support them to complete it." When it comes to the power of capital, it is obvious that the capitalists in the federation are more aware of the rules and ways of playing the game of capital. ”

As a bridgehead to open up an industry, this railway plan will not let the federal government become a thing on paper anyway, and even the federal government will take the initiative to help them and provide the most convenient conditions for them to enter this market. This is the strongest guarantee, they need a bridgehead to attack the empire, and Durin needs a project with the best deal, so they can naturally cooperate together.

As for business and politics have never been Dulfo's strong point, Durin casually explained that he believed it, and then he asked about another thing, "I heard that Frena was sent to school by you?", he suddenly wanted to laugh a little after he finished speaking, Freyna was two years older than Durin, a year older than Dufo, and now she actually went to school, and he couldn't help but be happy when he thought of an aunt sitting in a group of young students.

"She needs to improve her abilities, she is different from us, as long as we can hold the gun and pull the trigger, we are capable. ”

"She can't, it's not just her, everyone except us must catch up with the pace of this era, otherwise we can only be eliminated!"

"It's not that I'm going to eliminate them, it's that the times want to eliminate them!"

Durin put down his pen without a smile on his face.
