Day 10.

Hop on a boat that crosses the strait.

The Guardians left the French border once and for all, and embarked on the road to England.

When he set foot on his homeland again, Han Qingluo could clearly feel the new breath of this land.

The scars left by the demon infestation seem to be impossible to find in the scenery in their eyes, as if the suffering of that time is like a dream.

Among the group, the one who returned to his heart was Galo.

He hadn't seen his relatives for a long time, and his father, Bedren, and his son, Alexander, didn't know if they were doing well.

Of course, what he wanted to visit most was his wife's tombstone, and he didn't know if the flower beds around her had withered and whether anyone had taken care of them......

In order to make the trip faster, they bought a few horses at the local horse farm and drove all the way to Croatia.

Halfway through, I also passed through the Death Forest, the former site of the Demon Clan's former base camp.

Now it has been requisitioned by the local ZF, and it seems to have changed its appearance, there used to be a large black forest, full of rotting animal bones, and there is an abandoned old castle in the heart of the forest.

And now, as far as the eye can see, it is flat and open, and even the castle has been renovated, as if it was sold to a wealthy nobleman as a manor.

Along the way, Han Qingluo had to sigh that with the changes of the years, the hell he escaped from in the past has now become a sun-drenched open manor.

But what she didn't know was that under the sun, there would still be a dark existence, and it would not be long before it would still be hell and ruins......

The closer you are to the Bevo estate.

Garlo's heart grew more agitated and apprehensive.

After wandering outside for a long time, he has washed away the luxury of his body, full of vicissitudes and exhaustion.

Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar manor walls from afar.

He couldn't help but tug at the reins and swing his stirrups, urging the horses under him to go faster.

Everyone looked at his back and was eager to return home, smiled at each other tacitly, and leisurely rode their horses to follow.

Wandering outside and returning to familiar places made them physically and mentally happy, and they couldn't help but be infected by Galo's emotions.

The horse's hooves kicked up fine dust, and Garloh trotted all the way to the gate of the manor.

He grinned and looked excitedly at the manor, the obvious central building, where his relatives lived, but in a moment, they would be reunited!

Jumping off his horse, Galo hurried to the gate, and before entering, he deliberately straightened his loose blonde hair.

However, the closer he got to the gate, the more solemn the smile on his face became—the guards stationed at the gate had very unfamiliar faces, which made him feel a sense of restlessness in his heart.

When Galo reached the gate, two guards at the gate noticed him, but did not speak.

He was about to step through the gate when the expressionless guards immediately shifted their steps and stood in front of him without the slightest emotion.

"What are you doing?"

Galo was puzzled, but remained calm and polite, and asked aloud, but what waited for him was the silent silence of the two guards.

He didn't care about the indifference of the guards, because this was their job, he didn't want to embarrass these two guys, so he patiently continued to speak: "Let me in, I am the master of the manor." ”

“……”

What awaited was still a depressing silence.

Garlo took a deep breath and tried to maintain his demeanor: "Do you know Galo Vandrau? I am. ”

“……”

From the sculptural expressions of the two guards, Garrow read their strangeness.

He smiled awkwardly, pondered for a moment, and continued to lobby: "My father, Bedren Van Dro, you should know, right? ”

At this moment, the two guards finally moved their eyes and glanced at each other, but their bodies remained honestly immobile for half a minute, and they did not open their mouths to respond to a word.

At this time, the other people who were following slowly also came to the gate one after another, and it was really strange to see Galo and the two guards staring at each other, and they dismounted and surrounded them together.

"What's going on?"

Han Qingluo approached Galo in confusion, and by the way, he also glanced at the two iron-faced guards, it seemed that Galo was in trouble when he entered the gate of the manor.

Turning back, Galo shrugged at the puzzled crowd: "They won't let me enter the manor!" ”

"What's going on, you're half the master of the manor, and the guards don't know you?"

Also a secret party alliance, Sevi couldn't understand what happened to Galo, and it was a bit funny to be stopped when he returned to his home.

But at the moment, the two guards didn't react at all, and they didn't let them in, so they were in a stalemate, and there was no progress at all.

This Bevo Manor is Galo's home, and he can't do anything to his own people, so it's definitely not advisable to break in, so he has to spend time outside with his teammates.

Just when a group of people gathered at the door, guessing wildly.

Galo was far away, on the path of the lawn, and saw a familiar figure.

"Faure!"

He called out to the butler who had been in his house for a long time.

Unbeknownst to him, Fore did not show joy when he saw Galo, but turned and fled as if he had seen a plague god, and disappeared into the depths of the manor.

Having lived in the manor for a while, Han Qingluo had also seen Fuer, and was immediately surprised by his actions: "Why did he run away? ”

Galo was also confused by this series of anomalous phenomena, what happened to the manor during the time he left, why he couldn't return to his former home, and the familiar butler Fore ran away in fear when he saw him.

Looking at Jia Luo's confused and lost appearance, Jue immediately comforted: "Why don't we go to a nearby town to find a place to settle down first, there must be definite news in the city." ”

Immediately, everyone agreed to his suggestion, returned to horseback, found a hostel in the nearest city, and settled down temporarily.

Just when they thought they could successfully find Nophile in the city and inquire about the news, they found that the former site of Nophile was no longer there.

The idea of finding out the truth was interrupted again, and in a hurry, Garlo directly decided to sneak into the manor, but was stopped by others.

"Now, even the gate is guarded so tightly, I'm afraid that if you sneak in, there will be even more trouble!"

Jue shook his head and persuaded him not to be impulsive.

But where could Galo hold it, and said hurriedly: "If I enter my house, what trouble will I have?" ”

"I'm afraid, Bevo Manor isn't your home anymore, is it?" Sevi, who was secretly analyzing on the side, spoke up, "Didn't you see that the guards were all changed?" I don't even know you! ”

"Could it be that the prince encountered some difficulties and sold the manor?"

During the conversation, Han Qingluo also expressed his conjecture, so a large area of the Death Forest could be sold to other nobles as a manor, let alone Bewo Manor.

Their secret party is an outlier in the human world, and they have a lot of frequent contact with the human world, so they have to mortgage it because of their economic situation.

The speculation of the crowd made the distraught Gallo fall into thought, he didn't care if the Bevo Manor was not his home at all, he just wanted to see his father and son as soon as possible.

The mood of Galo's loneliness overflowed, and it also affected the others, and for a while, the small room was filled with indescribable silence, and the atmosphere was very heavy.

"Perhaps, we can ask a friend."

After a while, Jue spoke, bringing a touch of liveliness to the dead atmosphere.

……

The capital of Croatia.

Towards evening, there were few pedestrians on the streets.

Shops on both sides of the street are also turning off their lights and closing.

The night breeze blew, carrying the cold air over every passing corner.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and autumn is coming to an end, ushering in a cold winter.

On a city corner, a small and inconspicuous shop is following in the footsteps of its peers to end the day.

The shopkeeper glanced at the gloomy sky, shook his head, sighed, and walked into the store with a disappointed face, as if he had waited another day in vain.

Just before the door closed, a voice stopped the owner.

The shopkeeper listened to the voice, his expression was stunned, and then he turned his head with mixed joy to see that an old acquaintance was coming towards him.

"Garlo, Earl......"

His words were clearly hesitant in the word "count", and he obviously knew something inside.

In addition to Galo, Mai Wei's eyes were on another familiar face, Jue, and several unfamiliar faces that had come with him.

Hearing the hesitation in McVey's words, Garrow was even more convinced that this undisputed Toredo must know some inside story, and if the matter was not serious, a guy like him who didn't listen to anything outside the window would never react like this.

He immediately quickened his pace and approached, but when Mai Weiwei saw his eager look, he also panicked, and immediately stepped up the speed of closing the store.

It was Galo who took the lead and prevented Mavey from closing the door and escaping.

"Garlo, it's time for my shop to close!"

Mai Wei's expression was crying and laughing, and she spoke to him awkwardly through the crack in the door.

Galo pressed his elbow against it, not backing down at all, and raised a polite smirk: "Don't worry, it won't take much time for us to enter the store." ”

Just as the two were talking, Jue and them had already arrived at the door of the store.

Seeing so many eyes on him, Mai Wei also had to give up resistance, let go of his hand, open the door of the store, and let this line of "uninvited guests" enter the store.

Then, like a thief, he probed left and right, and with a violent operation, he quickly closed the door of the store and pulled down the curtain, which was half of the usual closing time today.

The small store was crowded with nine figures.

Mavey, a little cramped under their gaze, forced his composure to light the menorah in the inner room, took out his unfinished puppet and began to run away silently.

He understood that the arrival of this group of guys must have something to do with that big event, and in order to avoid suspicion, he had better say less.

Mai Wei's deliberate evasion was very obvious, and his extremely unnatural performance was simply three hundred taels of silver here.

Galo and they won't let him go, they all gathered around him, deliberately blocking the light, so that he couldn't carve the puppet, since he chose to resist silently, then they were the same, fighting this silent stalemate with him.
