There was no sound in the room except for the slight sound of breathing, and the silence was scary.

Although both of them were reading, it was clear that one of them was not thinking about the book at all, he leaned back on the sofa, holding the book in both hands, his eyes squinting and wandering.

Erin Adler.

Kestrel peered at the woman, who was half-lying in the corner beside her, her hands were cuffed together, she lay the book flat on her lap, she seemed to be reading a book for real, turning the pages awkwardly from time to time.

No, it's all an illusion, and this woman won't be honest so easily.

After living so big, the kestrel has not been deceived less, just like at the beginning when Shrike told him that it was just a more dangerous job, and it was not much different from the fighting and killing in the lower city, and the young kestrel believed it, and then got along with those lovely demons in the ghost place of the purification agency, and served so far.

Of course, not only that, but even Lorenzo has played him several times, and the more times he has been deceived, the kestrel doesn't matter...... But this time is different, this time Erin lied to herself is different from before.

This time Erin cheated on her feelings.

Although it was a bit naïve and stupid to say this, it seemed to Kestrel that it was like this, and he still remembered the excitement of holding the fish, and he also remembered the anger and embarrassment of Irene when she was brought back by Lorenzo, but fortunately Lorenzo did not continue to play tricks on him this time, sarcastic anything, otherwise Kestrel would have been really ashamed.

Erin didn't know what Kestrel was thinking, and she looked at the story in the book as if nothing had happened.

"Have you finished reading this book?"

Erin asked nonchalantly.

Kestrel immediately shook her body, put down the book, and looked at Erin with a confused expression.

"Didn't you finish it?" I thought you did," Erin looked at the kestrel across from her, her eyes looking around, "didn't you just keep doing this? I thought you were looking for mosquitoes." ”

It's over, it's all over.

The kestrel thought he was well disguised, but he hadn't escaped Irene's vigilance from the start, and the woman had already noticed her gaze.

"I'm done. ”

Kestrel replied dryly that he couldn't lose yet...... At least you can't lose so simply.

"So, what do you think of the story?"

Erin pointed to the book, which she and Kestrel were reading, called The Saker at Night.

Kestrel loves this book, which tells the story of a protagonist who is probably a dark hero who puts on a mask at night and goes out to punish evil and promote good in the city.

"I remember we discussed that. ”

Kestrel remembers that near-perfect afternoon, when he had completely forgotten about fishing and Erin on the side...... No, she should have been called Gloria then, and had a good chat with her about the story.

To be honest, Kestrel couldn't remember exactly what they talked about, he was completely immersed in the beauty at that time, and he didn't pay attention to what he said.

Unfortunately, it didn't last long, it was all a hoax.

"Yes, we talked about it at the time, and it looks like you did your homework overnight to get close to me. ”

The more Kestrel thought about it, the more angry she became, maybe when Erin was preparing for this at night, she would laugh at herself while watching, such a big person, still watching these boring things.

"What are you thinking?"

Erin asked in confusion, looking like a kestrel was pretentious and amorous.

"Well, it's a pretty good story, and I like it, but unfortunately it doesn't end well," Erin continued, "Do you see the ending?"

Kestrel was stunned, looking at Erin's attitude that had nothing to do with him, he felt that it was difficult for him to vent his anger, just like no matter how much you scolded the other person, the other party didn't understand why you were so angry.

Come to think of it, Erin is a member of the Iron Law Bureau, a very good spy, so good that even the guy named Ivar would fall into her trap.

She wore one mask after another on her face, and Kestrel thought she could see through her, but maybe it was just one of them.

What she hates so much is probably just a daily job for her.

Suddenly, Kestrel was less angry, he realized that he was different from Erin, and he didn't want to say anything more.

"I see," he replied somewhat perfunctorily, "it's okay, that's how it ends." ”

"I don't like this ending, I hate the ending where good people don't have good rewards. ”

Erin whispered.

"In the end, the falcon died.

He had slain the heinous criminal in the final battle, and he himself fell covered in blood, and the rain was so heavy that it washed everything away, and the next morning there was a terrible death in the city, and many years later everyone had forgotten that there was such a hero. ”

Erin closed the book, she had already read the ending, and now it was just a matter of passing the time to read it a second time.

"I love the story, I love the Saker, but he deserves a better ending than it ends. ”

Her gaze was a little lost, and Erin seemed to have really read the story carefully, rather than doing her homework to get close to the kestrels.

"He saved so many people, but he ended up like this on a rainy night, and no one even remembered him many years later. ”

"It's not the end, it's supposed to be an open-ended ending, right?"

Although he hated Erin, when it came to the story, Kestrel couldn't help but get serious, he said.

"You see that the author didn't name him in the end, did he? Just said that there was an extra tragic corpse, which may be that of a criminal, maybe he finished this vote and retired for the elderly? Maybe in a few years, the author will publish a new book, and the Saker will return to his old business for some reason, and then go out again?"

Looking at the serious face of the kestrel, Erin was stunned, and then couldn't help but laugh.

"You're so optimistic. ”

"It's not a question of whether he's happy or not, and you don't see that he's dead, is it?"

Erin thought for a moment, and she remembered what Lorenzo had said to her earlier.

Many people are too smart, smart enough to know the pain of this world, so they are willing to be deceived, but Kestrel is different, he is deceived because he is too stupid.

He's stupid.

"Reading comprehension, reading comprehension!"

"So, don't talk about it, it's useless, you don't just name and die, that's not dead!"

No one could have imagined that Kestrel would quarrel with Erin over such a thing, he was like a child.

"Why do you think so?"

Erin began to feel a little helpless.

Kestrel thought for a moment, then said.

"Do you know what Lorenzo Holmos has experienced?"

"What's wrong with him?"

At the mention of Lorenzo, Irene's expression changed slightly, she was very good at conquering other men, they were as transparent as clear water in Erin's eyes, and they were manipulated by her at will.

But Lorenzo was different, in the face of those gray and blue eyes, Erin felt that she couldn't see through anything, and even if she noticed something, she would feel that it was Lorenzo who deliberately showed it to herself, a trap he set.

They didn't get along for long, but judging by everything Lorenzo had shown, sometimes Irene even felt that Lorenzo wasn't human, he was just some monster with a human form.

Beneath that skin lies the same dark and sticky unknown.

"I didn't believe in resurrection before, but after meeting Lorenzo, that all changed. ”

Kestrel thought for a moment, and although he sometimes hated this bastard guy, he also had to admit that he was powerful.

"He's a guy who can break common sense, and it's an exaggeration to say that he's simply the embodiment of miracles. ”

"The embodiment of miracles?"

"Yes, I've seen hundreds of demons flock to Lorenzo like a tidal wave, but he single-handedly slashed out of them, and I've seen him die more than once, and even his body was blown to pieces, but in the end he survived. ”

The kestrel whispered.

"It's like a monster. ”

The atmosphere was suppressed for some reason, but it only lasted less than a few seconds, and the kestrel voice burst into joy again.

"So Lorenzo is really reliable, although this job sounds more terrible, but with Lorenzo here, there is no fear!"

Kestrel said unabashedly, to a large extent, Lorenzo was the big reason why he didn't jump out of the car and run away, and when the time came, he just had to be a good pendant, and the rest would be handed over to him.

"Is that so?"

Erin didn't expect them to have such a high opinion of Lorenzo, but think about it, Erin first found Lorenzo because of the choir's internal documents, and they regarded Lorenzo as a very threatening imaginary enemy.

Looking at the kestrel again, this guy can't tell whether he is stupid or has a big heart, he has completely forgotten his previous anger, just like a goldfish, the memory is short and outrageous.

"Any other books? Erin asked, "I've already read this one." ”

"Victoria's Secrets?"

Probably accustomed to being called "the moon", the kestrel picked up the book next to him, which he kept for Hybod.

"I haven't seen it. ”

Erin said that in fact, she came into contact with knights and learned about them during her time in Invig, and she had only seen "Saker in the Night".

"Speaking of which, this is also an open-ended ending, and I don't know what the follow-up will be. ”

Picking up the book, Kestrel remembered the heroine in the story who obviously had some problems with her brain, and she didn't know what happened to their great escape.

Looking at the book cover, there are no pen names left, these authors are more mysterious than the other, sometimes the kestrel wants to visit in person, but can not find the source.

"Give. ”

Kestrel said and walked over and handed the book to Erin.

Erin took the book and asked about something else.

"Kestrels, did someone say you're not suited for this job?"

"Not suitable?" the kestrel was annoyed, "what are you doing? questioning my professionalism?"

The kestrel had to theorize with her.

"Let me tell you, I was also a good hand when I was in the lower city, and when I cut it with a machete, even the shrike had to run away!"

Speaking of which, it seems that Kestrel has never told anyone about the specific process of his recruitment, in short, it is for some reasons that Kestrel does not understand, Kestrel and Shrike are cut together.

At that time, relying on his youth and bravery, he actually chased after the shrike and cut it down, although he was finally held down by the men who came from the shrike, but probably because he admired the kestrel this lifeless spirit, the shrike took him in.

At that time, Berau asked him why he was so desperate as a thug, and Kestrel replied sincerely.

Do a line of love.

"No, I don't mean that, I mean your mind, you're too stupid and too easily deceived. ”

Which pot is not opened, which pot is not mentioned, the kestrel is about to forget these things, and Erin brings it up again.

She put the book down and held the kestrel up her face with both hands, an intimate gesture that made the kestrel stunned, in fact, after all, he still missed that beautiful afternoon, even though he was aware of Erin's deceit, but instinctively wanted to step into the trap.

Erin had the impression that she was too good at first, just like the light, she was a perfect light, the light of many people.

"Unlike a lot of self-proclaimed clever guys, you're a little stupid and pure. ”

Erin looked at him like a puppy.

"What do you say......"

Before Kestrel could finish her words, Irene's handcuffs fell under his watchful eye, and she spread out her palm, in which lay a thin wire. For her, who came from the Iron Law Bureau, untying the handcuffs is a basic skill.

"Fuck you!"

Kestrel immediately scolded angrily, but Erin, who had been prepared for a long time, was obviously faster than her, and she grabbed the slender wire with her backhand and stabbed it directly into the kestrel's throat.

Presumably many people were killed by Erin in this way, thinking that they had won, but in fact everything was under the control of this woman, and the kestrel turned his head and dodged the blow, although the wire was slender, but the kestrel believed that if he was really hit, he would die.

The violent movement touched the wound, and the pain made the kestrel grin for a while, he was not a witcher, under the mortal body, the previous injury had not healed, he could only raise one hand to fight back, but before he could swing his fist, Erin smashed his elbow on the kestrel's body.

This woman also has injuries on her body, and every time she attacks, she needs to pull the strength of her whole body, and she is obviously much more fierce than the kestrels, and the elbow blow directly hits the wound in the shoulders of the kestrels, without mercy.

At this moment, Erin completely lost her previous soft appearance, but also, only with such crazy ferocity can this woman survive the wanted of the Viking Kingdoms, and she can also fight all the way out of Gaul Nalo and get rid of the pursuit of the Iron Law Bureau.

From the beginning, this Erin Adler was not a simple woman, but that afternoon was so beautiful that it was difficult for the kestrel to be alert even if he knew it.

The wound cracked under the heavy blow, and the blood dripped directly on the floor, the pain was unbearable, but this did not prevent the kestrel from acting, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the fruit knife on the table, full of momentum, quite like chasing people in the lower city to slash.

"Irene!"

The kestrel roared and raised its fruit knife.

"I'm here, what's wrong?"

Erin was standing not far away, she opened Lorenzo's cello case, raised Winchester with one hand, the barrel of the gun rested on the other, she aimed sideways, she also had wounds on her body, and she needed to slow down the recoil as much as possible.

"I'm sorry, Moon, don't hide!"

She said, pulling the trigger.
