Ron recalled the power that surged from his body when he used the fangs of the demon talismans, and the emptiness he felt after losing his power, and he silently engraved this sentence in his heart with a solemn look in his eyes.

"I'm not going to tell you to take it easy, or I'm not going to tell you that these things are far away from you, and you don't have to worry about anything like that. "And I'm telling you, if you're going to go deep into the fog, then this is a creed to remember for the rest of your life. If you are not careful, you will be in the abyss. ”

Ron nodded vigorously, "I see, Mr. Muse. ”

After hearing Ron's words, the muse's face began to relax slowly, he picked up the wine glass, drank the little wine left in the glass, and said: "I came to Frankser only to find out Bit's whereabouts, and now that Bit is dead, there are still a lot of things to deal with, so I need to stay in Frankser for a while." During this period of time, you need to make up for the knowledge, the knowledge of all aspects. ”

"I know, sir, that's what I mean. ”

After thinking about it, the muse suddenly asked, "Do you know how to read?"

An embarrassed smile appeared on Ron's face, "Yes, sir, I can know most of them. ”

"Then that's easy," Muse seemed relieved, "I can't imagine myself as an elementary school Chinese teacher." ”

Ron was now beginning to rejoice in Anna's strict teachings.

"During my stay in Franks, you can take this letter and go to the Enns Library in Frankser to study. Muse took out a stamped letter from his bosom and handed it to Ron, as if he had expected such a day, "After I'm done with this, I'll find someone to remind you that you'll leave this place with me and get a real job in the Abyss and the Mists." ”

"Also, I need to warn you," continued the last muse, "don't think that this is a sure thing, you will face an exam before you go to work. If you don't get the points you deserve, you're going to have to go back here. ”

Ron took the letter with both hands, and he said gratefully, "Thank you very much, sir. ”

The Muse nodded, then he looked Ron up and down, frowned, and pulled three more silver coins from his arms.

"Take them and use them to change for a decent outfit. Although I hate to admit it, it is true, there will always be classes in this world. If you still wear this outfit to the Enns Library, I can't guarantee that my letter will come in handy. ”

Ron shook his head, "No need sir, I still have a little money on me, enough to buy myself a decent outfit." ”

"Take it, and you can return it to me when you get to work. The Muse placed the silver coin in Ron's hand, "Besides, you have such a lovely sister, wouldn't you wish to buy her a beautiful red dress?"

Ron hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted the three silver coins. He solemnly said to the muse, "I will give it back to you." ”

The muse waved his hand, signaling that it was okay.

At this point, Ron was ready to take his leave, and he couldn't wait to go to the Enns Library.

Before leaving, the Muse reminded again: "Remember that creed and never forget." ”

Ron reaffirmed that he would keep it in his heart, and slowly turned away.

The door to the private room opens and closes again.

The muse sat alone on the sofa, looked at the door for a long time, and finally spoke, "If you don't mind, could you please pour me another glass of wine?"

Suddenly out of the empty private room came a middle-aged woman in a long white dress and a silk top hat, her face was a little pale, and her eyes were extremely narrow.

She casually placed a bottle of wine on the table and sat down on the couch on the other side.

The muse poured himself a drink and complained, "You should really learn what etiquette is." ”

The woman named Eve did not answer the words of the Muse, she looked at the door silently, and said, "What do you really like about him, arrogant young man?"

The muse shrugged, "Don't you think he's bold? ”

"Really?" said Eve, frowning, "the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and every young man seems to be like him, do you think that the fact that he threatened you with Bit's secret three days ago shows that he was very bold?" I think stupidly, for I have a hundred ways to get him to tell the truth." ”

"No, no, no, you're wrong. The muse smiled: "This can only reflect his cleverness, not his boldness." ”

"That's because?"

"He lied to me. ”

There was a hint of interest on Eve's face, "Oh?

"The wound on his back was clearly caused by a wild beast, and it could only be the demon talisman 'Sharp Claw Fang'. But at the scene of Bit's death, I didn't find this talisman. ”

"Did he take it?" Eve narrowed, her already narrow eyes made dangerous by her move, "You've crossed the line, Muse." As a demon master of the Demon Division, you should take back the demon talisman he holds after you know about it, and you should not let it go free. ”

"Who cares about this little demon talisman? Sequence three hundred? What is this compared to twins? Now the people above only care about when the silver dragon Slofender will appear, and they don't care about such a trivial matter at all. Take it easy, Eve. It's nothing. On the contrary, I am more concerned about how far a young man like him, who has barely learned anything, will study the abyss and fog. ”

Eve suddenly raised her chin, "I seem to understand something." ”

"What?"

"In the Demon Division, intern demon masters should not have demon talismans. Even if he enters the Demon Division, he can only do miscellaneous work for a certain period of time, and you can actually let him hold the demon talisman privately? Muse, you are very optimistic about him?"

"So, you're not optimistic about him?"

"God hates deceivers. ”

The muse pinched the seal of God in the palm of his hand and muttered, "God only hates fraudsters who deceive God." ”

Eve didn't hear what Muse was saying, and she turned her head to look at him suspiciously.

"It's nothing, I'm just asking, do you want to make a Bloody Mary?"

..................

Three silver coins is a lot of money for Ron now, considering that one copper plate can buy a glass of ale in Maria's hostess's tavern, and a hundred copper plates can only be exchanged for one silver coin.

And in times of financial change, the value of silver coins is even higher.

Ron wanted to buy a dress for Anna, or a pair of beautiful little leather boots, but he didn't think about how many sizes of clothes and shoes Anna was wearing.

This brother of his is really incompetent.

On the contrary, all the clothes on his body were bought by Anna and fit perfectly. Even when the two were young and the family had no spare money, Anna sewed a set of clothes for him with her own hands.

And at that time, the clothes on Anna's body were always leftovers from him.

Walking around the streets of Franksor, Ron saw a jewelry store down the street. He thought for a moment and walked inside.

"What do you need, sir?"

The waiter at the jewelry store did not remind him that he was not allowed to enter, as the waiter at Lowell's Club, but was very enthusiastic.

After all, in a small place like Franksø, rich people are always scarce. Most of these small storefronts depend on the vast majority of poor people for their livelihoods.

"Well, I want to see the bracelet. Ron replied, "Not only bracelets, earrings, necklaces." ”

"Is it for my girlfriend?" the waiter asked with a smile.

Ron shook his head, "No, no, no, it's for my sister." ”

"Understood. ”

Led by the waiter, Ron looked around slightly. The jewelry store is small, and there are very few high-value jewels in it.

In another word, there are very few good-looking pieces of jewelry.

After looking around, Ron was not very satisfied, the only bracelet that made him think it looked good was indeed made of gold, not only was it expensive, but he also felt a little vulgar.

The waiter asked, "If you don't think the gold and silver jewelry goes well with your sister, then I would recommend you here." Yes, we just got a batch of jade agate in our store, you can take your time. ”

As soon as he walked over, Ron's eyes lit up. He didn't fall in love with jade agate, but on a pair of white and flawless pearl necklaces.

Such a necklace would look good if it hung on Anna's fair-skinned neck, he thought.

"Can I take a look at that pair of pearl necklaces?"

"Of course, sir, you have a good eye, this is indeed the top batch of necklaces in our store. ”

The waiter carefully picked it up and handed it to Ron, who held it in his hand and liked it the more he looked at it.

"How much, miss?"

The waiter replied, "Two silver coins and fifty copper plates." ”

Ron nodded, silent for a moment.

The waitress waited for a moment before Ron could reply, and she cautiously asked, "What are you thinking, sir?"

Ron looked up with a smile, "I'm wondering how to haggle to succeed without losing decency?"

The waiter was amused.

In the end, Ron spent two silver coins to get the string of jewels, and he hurried to Anna's high school.

In fact, he didn't know what class Anna was in, nor who Anna's teacher was.

But he was able to find a restaurant easily, wasn't he?

After waiting for more than an hour at the door of the high school cafeteria, the lunch bell rang when the restaurant doorman finally decided that the young man squatting here was a fool.

In the midst of a bustling crowd of young people, Anna had the best recognition.

That red hair will always make her stand out from the crowd.

"Anna!

Ron beckoned to Anna from afar.

Anna was talking and laughing with a brown-haired girl, and when she heard this, she suddenly looked up in confusion and looked left and right until she saw Ron, and then she ran as fast as she could, slowing down when she was five meters away from Ron.

"Ron, why are you here?"

Ron laughed, "I remember I told you that I would come to Frankser to find Mr. Muse, and Mr. Muse would promise me a job. ”

"Yes, a strip. ”

At this time, the brunette girl next to Anna finally followed, she held Anna's arm, and her face was full of teasing smiles, "Wow, Anna, who is this?

"Of course not, Colanie, what are you thinking?"

Anna had no choice but to introduce, "This is my brother, Ron, August Ron. This is my good friend, Colanie Greene. ”

"Are you Anna's brother? Nice to meet you. Claranie was intrigued by Ron, and she blinked wide, "Actually, I've heard your name a long time ago, after all, Anna often mentions you. ”

"Really?" Ron wondered what Anna was talking about himself, "what did she say?"

She said......"

Before she could finish speaking, Anna pushed her into the dining room, "Alright, Colanie, it's our alone time!"

"Good, good, as you wish. ”

Clannie waved at Ron and walked into the dining room.

"Have you eaten?"

"Of course, Mr. Muse's craft is very good. ”

"Looks like he does like you. Anna asked, "Have you got a job?"

"Of course," Ron replied, "Actually, Mr. Muse thinks highly of me, and I need to study hard for a while during this time, and then I will take an exam." If I pass the exam, I will be able to get the job I want. ”

At this time, Anna's face turned visibly cold, she glanced around, and rebuked in a low voice: "I told you a long time ago that it would be helpful for you to learn a little knowledge! If you listened to me, you would not face such a problem now!"

Ron knew it was going to be like this, and he smiled wryly, "Okay Anna, I got it." ”

Anna glared at him and asked, "Do you need me to tutor you?"

"No, no, no, you still have to worry about your own studies. I'm not a kid anymore, I know how to learn?"

"Really?" said Anna with a smile in her eyes, "I remember you telling me that before you were scared to pee your pants by that little spider." And at that time, you're going to rob your fox friends and dogs!"

"Anna—"

"Okay, okay, I won't mention this again!"

Ron took out a jewelry box from behind him, "Actually, I have something for you!

Anna raised her eyebrows first, and then she opened the jewelry box and saw the pearl necklace inside, and her face showed surprise. But after a short moment, she frowned again.

"Where did you get your money? Ron?"

"Don't worry, Anna. This is my salary, which was paid to me in advance by Mr. Muse. ”

Anna breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How much?"

"Not too expensive?"

"How much?"

"It's really not expensive. ”

"I'll ask one last ......"

"Two silver coins. ”

"Damn! Ron!" Anna glared at Ron, "so you have spent your first month's salary before you even start working?"

Ron touched his nose, "Probably not, I have a little bit left." ”

"Yes, is the little you have left enough for a month's living expenses?"

Ron thought for a moment, if he still needed to buy a decent set of clothes, then it really wasn't enough.

"What an idiot you're into!"

Ron smiled and persuaded, "Okay Anna, don't mind too much. We're not going to be the same forever, are we? We're all going to go up, we're going to have a better life. And this small necklace is actually not worth mentioning. ”

Anna was still a little annoyed.

Ron took the necklace off the box and hung it around Anna's neck with his own hands. He smiled, "I knew that this necklace would look good on you." ”

Anna touched the pearl necklace on her chest and said fiercely: "There is no next time!"

"Of course there will be a next time, Anna. ”

Anna snorted, "You'd better take care of yourself first, and if you can, I'd like to give your necklace to a pretty little girl next time." Speaking of which, you're the oldest, Ron. ”

"Let's steer clear of this topic for now, eh...... It doesn't seem to be early, it's time for you to go to dinner. And I still have a little thing to do, I can't accompany you. ”

Anna nodded, "Okay then, remember to be careful on the road." ”

"Of course I know ......"

Suddenly, two people spoke at the same time: "I'm not a child anymore." ”

"You're not a kid anymore. ”

Both laughed.

After a moment, Anna whispered, "I'm so proud of you, brother. ”

"You're my pride. ”

......

Anna stood at the door of the dining room and watched Ron's back, when Clanie ran out, and she saw the necklace on Anna's chest at a glance, "Wow! It's beautiful, did your brother give it to you?"

Anna curled the corners of her mouth, "Of course." ”

"I wish I could have such a beautiful pearl necklace, can I wear it a little?"

"Of course not, what are you thinking?"

"Damn, Anna, it's not like you. Finally, Clannie glanced at Ron and whispered, "I thought your brother was a thug, oh no, don't hit me, I'm serious." He was dressed like a thug, but I didn't expect him to be so caring. What does your brother do?"

Anna raised her chin, and the pearls shone brightly in the red hair.

"He will be a respected police officer. ”

Anna replied.
