Volume 3 College Life Chapter 4 Traitor
Packing up his personal belongings in the small recuperation building of this seaside air base, and clutching the military canvas bag, the day after the queen's personal interrogation, it was time for Lin Hai to leave here.
And he didn't know at all that if it weren't for Nolan's hints, he would have expressed that kind of stubborn persistence, and even some aspects of unintentional emotional intelligence. What he may be facing is a different arrangement and destiny.
The most powerful force under the stars, the queen inherited under the throne as long as the history of the empire, the seemingly weak female xìng has the momentum to make any strong person in the galaxy tremble, if she wants to erase the traces and difficulties of the veteran in her life in the sight of the imperial doubters, then she only needs to move her fingers and throw him Lin Hai into an unfathomable dark abyss, and she will disappear in a single qiē.
However, I don't know if Lin Hai is not afraid of offending her stubborn persistence, or Nolan's obedience, or the joint efforts of some supporters behind Lin Hai, or Lin Hai's past actions. As a result, the queen's established iron-fisted arrangement seems to have given birth to subtle changes, so that Lin Hai's fate will not end like a bird.
Lin Hai is just not emotionally intelligent in some aspects. will not flatter, please people, and make people feel close to him. But this does not mean that Lin Hai can't figure out the truth.
Just thinking about it like this, Lin Hai felt a chill.
He turned his head and looked at the room in the room, and then he deeply understood how dangerous an interrogation conversation yesterday was.
If it weren't for Nolan's gaze. If he shows the slightest hypocrisy that can be seen through by the queen, I am afraid that he will not be able to leave this villa at all.
Lin Hai is both simple and complex. Originally, this was a contradiction that could not be unified, but could only be opposed. The interpersonal relationship in the garbage star has taught Lin Hai to get along with people simply, and those who say good things and bow down to pity people there will definitely not be able to survive. Because the only thing that can survive there is strength. Therefore, Lin Hai's whole person is very simple, and he does not have some of the innate and nurtured minds that even simple children from aristocratic families have.
But he is also complicated, in the cannibalistic world, if you can't calculate the deceit of the world all the time to survive, you will definitely not be able to survive and come out. He can tactfully calculate the most vicious enemies and opponents. But they can't find ways to make others feel comfortable with their charms. This may be some kind of flaw that belongs to him.
Such a deficiency may be difficult for anyone else in this interpersonal world.
However, it is useless in front of the sharp gaze of the queen, who will never see such hypocrisy. And it seems that it is precisely because of this, perhaps touching some of the queen's pleasing aspects, Lin Hai's established arrangement, and there was a turnaround.
Facing the officers who came to pick him up and lead him out of the base, Lin Hai suddenly asked, "Royal Young Knights, what is the place?" ”
The officer looked stunned for a moment, during this time, after this young man who had done great things was sent to the air base, he had been strictly guarded, and the officer and Lin Hai had not spoken a few times, but almost every day, he would look at Lin Hai through the monitor I don't know how many times, so he was very familiar.
Facing Lin Hai, who was about to be sent out of the base after the investigation was over, the officer thought for a moment, and then said, "Many famous generals of the empire in history, if you look through their resumes, you will see the profiles of the members of the Royal Young Knights. But if you meet a beggar with a broken leg in the capital, perhaps he once had such an identity, but now he is ashamed to say it. ”
The officer paused, and sighed, "It seems like a place where if you don't get out of it, you'll be in the silence forever." ”
Walking out of the villa, Lin Hai squinted his eyes and looked at the morning light on the horizon that revealed the sky. muttered softly, "...... Do you do nothing? ”
The city of Milan, yīn rains.
In a very secluded cemetery near the outskirts of the city, there are many black sè umbrellas around it, and the people under the umbrellas.
Hamand's burial took place here. The black sè waterproof coffin drains the rainwater that stains it. Descend slowly into the grave. On the edges of those black umbrellas, there is a continuous waterline flowing down, and behind the waterline, people who can't see their faces clearly.
In the distance of the rain curtain, there is a staggered background of monuments, and a small white flower can occasionally be seen growing under the rain at the foot of the tombstone. In the dead silence of the tall tombstones, let the rain blow and the wind, swaying vividly. Death and life, in such contrasting ways, exist in this world.
Lin Hai stood in the crowd with an umbrella, looking at the white flower, and it was hard to believe that in the heavy coffin, it was Hamand, who was not a few years older than him, lying on the ground. Most people of his age are in the prime of life. And here he will rest forever.
The middle-aged couple under an umbrella wept silently. It was Hamand's parents, and his relatives and friends stepped forward to comfort him.
Earl Lin Wei was also saying something to them. The two sobbed and bowed to the Lord Count in their eyes.
Lin Wei and Lin Hao next to him looked over, saw Lin Hai, and nodded at him.
An umbrella came to him, a woman in a black sè skirt under the umbrella, her long red sè hair was combed back, tied into a ponytail, and on her pointed face, a pair of red sè pupils stared at Lin Hai.
Lin Wei's voice sounded, "Yesterday was a condolence, and the people who came to the funeral home to mourn him, in addition to Hamand's teammates and friends, there were many people. I think that so many people remember him, and he will not be alone when he is buried here. ”
Looking at the woman in front of him who had lost a lot of weight in the past month, and had become more and more clear, Lin Hai knew that in the month that he had been closed and quarantined for investigation, before the results of those investigations were clear, the pressure must have been not small. Now, Hamand's burial has only come to an end, and at this moment, he has only one name under his eyes...... The lily nobles who made this qiē.
Lin Wei sighed deeply, "After that day, Claire disappeared. I can now be sure that the hidden stake that has been planted by the lily nobles all this time is Claire...... I don't know when it started...... I brought Claire out personally, so there should be no problem with his origin. So, it's a betrayal......"
Lin Wei's voice was tinged with coldness, "He betrayed us. ”
Lin Hai nodded, "Driven by the temptation of huge interests, it is difficult for people to maintain their hearts. When the Lin family fell, the family was purged. At this time, the industry of Wayne Group can only be fully controlled by him who succeeds you. ”
Lin Wei looked over, "He is already under my hands, with prestige below one person and above thousands." In Wayne, it also basically has a lot of power. The future is at the core, he can have everything, he can't have it, and Wayne's plate is too small to give him. Why did he do it? ”
Lin Hai tilted his head, "What if I said that the Lily Family promised him something that he couldn't get if he stayed in Wayne Company?" ”
"What?"
"You."
Lin Wei's red eyes were slightly stunned, and then, it seemed that she had colluded with Claire's betrayal process. I am afraid that when the family announced her marriage contract between Lin Wei and Lin Hai, Claire was disillusioned, so she had another dissent and evil
"Yes, ......I see," Lin Wei laughed, "The human heart is such an elusive thing." There was a kind of desolation and disappointment in that tone.
Then there was her relief after taking a deep breath, "You should know about the House of Commons nomination...... The family will be in full power for a chance in the House of Commons in the next few months, and if nothing happens, we will move the family to the capital star within a few months. I think it's all your credit. ”
Lin Hai turned his head sideways and saw Lin Wei looking at his red pupils without blinking for a moment, and for some reason, he twisted his head a little weakly, "I don't believe in justice and justice, but I believe in the truth." The truth cannot be buried forever. ”
Lin Wei said softly, "Although the equation has been interrupted, the prestige it brings gives us a good prospect. Moreover, the military also has the intention of signing a new contract,...... If we enter the House of Commons, we can buy a small piece of land in the capital and use it as a foothold, but this is only the beginning. From the moment we enter the House of Commons, we are officially in the political arena of the Empire. On top of that, there are countless old vested interest groups and rule divisions, so to speak, our arrival will disrupt the pattern there, which is a zero-sum game. As we grow up, other clan forces will inevitably be damaged, so we will break into a swarm of sharks, not a blessed land, and there will be many enemies. You have to walk on thin ice every step of the way. Since ancient times, the bones of the corpses buried in the cleansing of the House of Commons can ⊥ the blood of the capital star many times. ”
"Now that you understand this truth, that's it." Lin Hai nodded. He found that he and the family behind him seemed to have no way out, but would inevitably go to the capital star, and inevitably go to a certain track, in the surging history of the galaxy, they had become a wave that constituted the waves, being swept away, vigorously moving forward, and there was no way to retreat.
"You're going to serve in the Royal Young Knights...... We will settle in the capital star......" Lin Wei didn't look at Lin Hai, brushed the hair of her ears and temples, I don't know if it was an illusion, her cheeks turned a lot redder, "That's it...... It's closer to you. ”
Lin Hai was instantly silent and didn't dare to speak.
There was a long silence between the two of them, and the murmur of each other's noses.
The wind blew over, stirring Lin Wei's red-haired ponytail and swaying gently.
After a moment, she reached out and pulled out a letter. On the cover of the letter, in addition to the address, there were a few engraved words, "To Avril." ”
"Paper letters?" Lin Hai was slightly stunned, because he knew that this kind of letter written by the writer himself was generally extremely valuable, and would only be given to people close to him.
"I got it when I was sorting out Hamand's relics in Team Wayne. I've seen it, and today's concierge list doesn't have this girl named Avril. So, I didn't give this letter to Hamand's parents, and I was only annoyed that the address on this letter was in the capital star, and I thought, is it bothering you to give this letter to the girl Hamand wants to give it? ”
After receiving the letter, Lin Hai looked at the black coffin that began to express the soil, and nodded in the rain. He didn't know what this girl named Avril had to do with Hamander, but he didn't mind at all, helping Hamand and giving this letter to the girl he wanted to give it to was the fulfillment of his last wish.
