380 Verses: Many Stories in a Small Town (4)

Marin attended the dinner party at the old man Dingqi's house for three consecutive days, which was enough to give the old man enough face - he was originally going to leave at noon on the third day, but the train crew found that a few parts needed to be replaced, so they waited for another half a day.

As the train was about to start, the halfling finally appeared and gave Marin the not-so-good news that the thief had not been found, but he said that it was a traitor from the local Brotherhood of Thieves, and said that if Marin did, it would be alive or dead, two thousand Mowhis, and he would pay anyone he saw.

Marin smiled and decided to let the guy earn his hard-earned money on his own.

"Do you still resent me?" Before leaving, Marin asked the halfling.

"Hate." The halfling nodded very frankly: "Except for one opponent who is arching fire, the rest are brothers who have followed me for more than ten years...... Your Excellency, the word brother came out of my mouth, do you think it is particularly stupid? ”

Faced with this question, Marin was silent for a moment, and then shook his head: "...... You are a soldier of the Pulsatilla, normally speaking, your brother is not them, but you have been acting for twenty years, and your brother is no longer the same age as you sweated on the martial arts field back then, so you are not stupid when you say this word, which proves that you are not crazy, although they are indeed not your brothers. ”

I don't know why, Marin reached out and patted the halfling on the shoulder: "Your brothers are not them, nor those who sit in the office, nor those who are high and powerful, your brothers are those who are willing to sacrifice themselves for the innocent in this country, and ignite themselves for all the cubs in this world who face hunger and cold." ”

“…… Thank you, Your Excellency. The halfling smiled and wiped the corners of his eyes: "Let you see you smile." ”

"May I ask you what you did this in the first place."

"My father was a member of the Brotherhood, and I felt that what he did was wrong, so he joined the Intelligence Section of His Excellency Pulsatilla incognito, but he was brushed off during the political censorship, but ...... His Excellency Catalia asked me to go back, and he said that the organization needs my dedication. ”

"Standard bigwigs speak." Marin shook his head.

“…… I have no regrets, if I didn't do it, someone else would do it, but after all, I was the most suitable at that time, I had a brotherhood father, which was an advantage that all my classmates did not have. After the halfling said this, he smiled at Marin: "Thank you, Your Excellency, I will hate you in the future, but I understand that all this is the fault of this damn world, if everyone has a job, if there is no evil god in this world, each of us may have a completely different fate." ”

"Yes, so, do your job well, I won't bother you about that thief again, but don't expect anyone from me." After speaking, Marin shook hands with the halfling: "By the way, I don't know your name yet." ”

"Scarface." The halfling pointed to the scar on his face, "But people who know me well, like you, should call me Jefflin." ”

"Alright, Jefflin, we'...... It's better not to say goodbye. ”

The halfling smiled and nodded: "yes, we'd better not have to say goodbye, you go slowly." ”

"The same goes for you." Marin made a gesture of please, watched the halfling leave the platform, and then jumped onto the starting train.

Taking off his sweaty shirt, Marin glanced at the girls sitting on the sofa: "I'll take a shower first." ”

"Okay." The girls said in unison.

Marin nodded, then looked at Matilda, "Matilda, come and rub my back." ”

The big-eared fox answered, and then ran quickly to the bathroom, saying that he was going to put water into the bathtub.

Marin looked at Faye and the others, and finally laughed: "You have to go into the bathroom before you are willing to get up and kill Jefflin." ”

The eyes of the five girls were as wide as brass bells.

"I am the true master of Salis, and he has told me everything about you." Marin relieved the girls of their doubts so that they would not be suspicious.

"We see what you just said to him was good......" Jessica, the elder, was the first to stand up to Marin.

To Marin's delight, the eldest of the girls had learned to stand in front of her sisters in the face of the anger of the head of the family.

This made Marin's last bit of anger disappear without a trace.

"I'm angry, not because you want to kill him, but because you deliberately avoided me when you killed him, I am the head of the family, what do you do, it should be me to tell you, so, I tell you now, in all the words that Jefflin just said to me, only the hatred for me is real, so, kill him, Salis will give it to you, it will take you to find him, ambush it on the way, kill him and his brothers, and Manna will open a two-way portal for you."

Speaking of this, Marin looked at Faye: "Honey, tell me something next time, I can't accept the loss of any of you in the future...... So, hurry up, and when you guys come back, I'll take a shower. ”

With that, Marin stood in front of the bathroom door.

Manna opens a portal for the girls.

Faye was the first to stand up, she pulled her suitcase from under the couch and began to change.

With her taking the lead, the remaining girls quickly completed their costume changes, and then walked into the portal with their weapons.

"You know everything, Mr. Marin." Matilda whispered in her bathroom.

"You didn't tell me anything." Marin turned his head and glared at her: "How about the deflection of the camp, do you need me to prepare a sin sacrifice for you?" ”

This girl was a real headache for him.

"It's okay, I didn't deflect much, I lied to you that you're a puppy!"

As if sensing that Marin didn't believe her, the big-eared fox patted his chest and swore an oath.

Oh, do you think that if you have two more tails (yi) Bada, you are not canines?!

………………

Jefflin sat in the carriage, the halfling one last glance in the direction of the station, and when he looked back, the previous smile completely disappeared from his cold frozen expression.

Your brothers are not them, nor are they those who sit in the office, nor are they the big men who are in high places, but your brothers are the ones who are willing to sacrifice themselves for the innocents in this kingdom, and to set their own light for all the young people in this world who are facing hunger and cold...... It's hard to believe, Mr. Marin, who do you think you are?

Do you think you're one of those poor bastards? No matter how high-sounding you are, you're just a big businessman.

We have never been fellow travelers, you have your sunshine road, I have my single-plank bridge, obviously it is an existence in two worlds, don't say anything beautiful.

The carriage began to turn at this time, Jefflin sat in the car and looked out, there were not many pedestrians on the street, there were some beggars near the park, but the park guards would prevent these beggars from entering the park, after all, it was a tryst between the noble lord and the lady and the lady.

Hmph, one day, the Farol people will surely wake up too.

With this confidence, Jefflin noticed the glitter on the bell tower in the distance, like a moment when the light source was reflected, smearing a glimmer of light on the dark-ruled building.

Jefflin narrowed his eyes - it was his last memory in this world.

In the next second, the halfling who had been pierced by the bullet in the forehead fell into the carriage, absorbing the sound in the car by the silent enchantment, and no one noticed all this.

Faye stood on the side of the street and watched the carriage depart slowly but surely, and eventually, Cross stepped out of the shadows: "A perfect new plan, Faye. ”

"Marin told me that wisdom is a person's greatest treasure." Faye smiled and snapped his fingers, and a portal appeared in front of them - it didn't matter if they left the city's portal, they were gone anyway, and it was also an act to draw attention away from the bell tower.

If they don't check carefully, then there is a good chance that the bullet is coming from the street side at close range.

The so-called battle of wits and courage is what it says.

………………

When the train entered Naples, Marin got off the train and saw Lord Catalia on the platform.

He stood there alone, and behind him, Baron Anthony Gallo was facing his old friend with a very awkward smile, as if noticing Marin's gaze, and he smiled even more awkwardly.

Marin smiled at the old man and raised the hat of the priest on his head: "Good afternoon, Your Excellency Catalia, what wind has brought you to me?" ”

"Does Jefflin's death have anything to do with you?" Catalia Hemingway asked straight and straight with his questions.

Marin glanced at the paladin beside him: "Mind my, your people can't even figure out who their real brother is, you said he died, that's really a good death." ”

After saying that, Marin took the girls around the old man, and then Marin opened his arms: "Hey, Anthony, my friend, I'm not late." ”

"Of course not, Mr. Marin, your growth is amazing, if you have any secret recipe for immortality, please be sure to tell me." Anthony smiled and shook Marin's hand, noticing Pulsatilla's angry departure, he looked at Marin: "You made him angry?" ”

"yes, what's wrong."

"Good brother, well done, I rarely see anyone who can make him so angry." Anthony laughed and beckoned.

Marin looked at the carriages and smiled: "By the way, there are still people here to give you gifts." ”

"Oh my God, what a great honor I saw those two, thank you." Anthony shook hands with the current half-eldest son one by one, and then he saw Salis flying to Marin's shoulder: "Eagle! Oh my God, it's still a spirit, you subdued him...... They? Because Anthony saw the spare grain and spots coming down, and also saw the cubs in the cub's nest on the back of the spare grain.

"Too much surprise is not good for your health, Mr. Bridegroom." Marin turned to look at Nova who stepped out of the car, and Rivo who was holding her in her arms.

The two walked up to Marin and joined the girls.

Marin then looked at Mr. Anthony: "I don't need an introduction." ”

"Of course, Mr. Marin, you can always surprise me." The groom-to-be had an indescribable smile on his face.
