Ron was unexpectedly overjoyed to get such an address.

He had thought that he would be separated from Anna for at least a while, but now it seemed that the two were still living together, at least in the same city.

Not bad, as Anna said.

After saying goodbye to Anna, Ron didn't spend the day in the Enns Library, and despite Director Mallory's obvious affection for him, the librarian didn't show a happy face about his arrival.

In fact, as soon as Ron stepped into the reading room of the Enns Library, the middle-aged administrator in his forties covered his face with his hands and muttered something in a low voice.

To his surprise, his "damn it" was heard loud in the silent reading room.

And, after the departure of the Muse, he no longer had a free place to live in Franksø. He didn't want to spend the night in the Enns Library. Thinking back to his sleepless five days and five nights in the Enns Library, he was indeed a little afraid.

In past lives, sudden death was a very common thing. And all those who survive after a few days of staying up late are undoubtedly Lady Luck's patrons. But Lady Luck always has a time to snooze, doesn't she?

Of course, if he told Anna that he wanted to sleep in Anna's dormitory, Anna might scold him and find a way to get him in, but Ron couldn't pull it off.

Therefore, after consulting with Director Mallory, Director Mallory was generous enough to allow Ron to borrow any book he wanted from the library, or even any several. He just told Ron not to scribble on the book, at least not to tell him after he did, it would make it difficult for him to do it.

So on this day, Ron took the last trip from Frankser to the small town of Chauschen in the last car, carrying a few thick books, and returned to the town where he had not returned for several days.

By the time we arrived in Xiao Shen Town, it was already seven o'clock, and after the midsummer was approaching, the sky was still a little dim, and it was not completely dark.

The two moons hung shallowly in the sky, patiently waiting for the moment when the sun's afterglow finally dissipated, filling the darkness in the world.

"Is that Ron? Damn!" Wolf looked at Ron in surprise, and the thick books in his hand, "I can't believe my eyes, Ron, that Ron, who spends his days hanging out in casinos, taverns and on the streets, would hold books?"

"It must be Anna's book, does it still need to be considered?" said Fawkes, his eyelids drooping, and in a feeless tone, "How can someone like him still read?" ”

Ron smiled, he didn't explain.

At this time, Wolf suddenly said, "I heard that you are leaving Xiao Shen?"

"Anti-bones, I already knew. Fox chimed in.

Ron wondered, "How do you know?" I remember never telling anyone. ”

"Do you still need to think about this?" Xiao Shen jumped out of the dilapidated carriage on the side of the road, "Anna will definitely go to college, and then she will definitely go to college." When she's gone, will you still be able to support yourself?"

Fawkes pouted, "He's Anna's dog skin plaster, and he can't be ripped off, because he will starve to death without Anna." ”

"Not necessarily," said Worf, "Aunt Sonny has always wanted to change to a man, and as we all know, Aunt Sonny is very housekeepers. ”

Fox shuddered at the thought of Aunt Sonny, "Maybe it's going to die faster." ”

Wolf nodded thoughtfully, "It's more likely." ”

"It's just a pity, I just remembered the story of how I once encountered a pack of hungry wolves alone in the middle of the night in the barren mountains last night...... No, it's an experience, and I'm looking for a suitable opportunity to tell you about it. It looks like you don't have that privilege anymore. Sean sighed at first, and then he looked at Ron with interest, "Why don't I tell you a good story tonight......?" Ahem...... The experience will be a great inspiration for you in the rest of your life. ”

Ron smiled helplessly, "Thanks, but no need." Because tonight, I want to get a good night's sleep. Because your experience will excite me so much that I can't sleep all night. ”

Sean's eyes lit up, he patted Ron on the shoulder, turned to Wolf and Fawkes, and said, "Look, this is the one who can really read me! Only real men can understand each other, and you, Wolf!"

Wolf raised his fist, and Sean's tone froze, "Worf, you're not bad, but you, Fawkes, you arrogant and cowardly coward, what right do you have to laugh at Ron, a real man?"

Fox looked up at Wolf, "Can I beat him?"

"I can't beat it. ”

Fawkes lowered his head again, and said weakly, "Then let him go." ”

"Amazingly, for the first time I noticed that the sound outside was louder than in the tavern. Maria came out with a cigarette, she squinted at Ron for a long time before finally reacting, "Oh, it's Ron, I heard you're leaving?"

As she said this, the lady raised her long plump legs and kicked old John, who was begging for a drink.

Ron smiled and replied, "Yes, Lady Maria, Anna and I will be on our way to Branslin in about ten days. ”

"Branslin?"

The lady took a deep breath of her cigarette, and then she raised her head slightly and exhaled the smoke with a hint of remembrance on her face.

After a while, she finally replied, "I haven't heard of it." ”

The corners of Ron's mouth twitched.

"How long will you stay there?" asked Sean suddenly.

Ron shook his head, "I don't know, maybe four years, maybe longer. ”

Sean patted Ron on the shoulder, "Remember to come back when you have time." ”

Ron replied, "Of course, I can't stay in Branslin forever. ”

Wolf suddenly added, "Because after you're gone, there's a good chance that Aunt Sonny will be thinking about us." ”

Sean nodded his head vigorously, he looked at Ron with innocent eyes, "Also, you can come back alone, don't take Anna with you." ”

Fox went on to add: "At least say it up front. ”

Ron didn't know what to say.

"I'm tired. The hostess Maria dropped her cigarette and slowly turned around and walked into the tavern, "Good night, everyone." ”

"Look! Old John is stealing wine again!" said Wolf, pointing to Old John who had sneakily walked up to the counter in the tavern, "don't you care?

"Three hundred and eight. Maria muttered.

Fox looked surprised, "I don't know how much he owes before I know it, just as I have lost so much before I know it." ”

Fawkes' face cried with tears.

Wolf waved at Ron, "Fawkes and I are going to flip through the books, goodbye, Ron." ”

"Goodbye. ”

Sean still wouldn't leave, and he tried again to ask, "Do you really not want to listen tonight?"

As soon as Ron was about to say no, Sean looked at Ron with an expression that I understood, "Okay, I know, I'll let you get a good night's sleep tonight, after all, there aren't too many experiences like mine in the world." Goodbye, Ron, see you tomorrow night. ”

Ron reluctantly responded, "See you tomorrow." ”

Back home, Ron carried the books into the bedroom, carefully examined the three talismans and the two books he had received from West, then took a shower, sat down on the bed and began to read.

Anna doesn't want Ron to bother her every day, so Ron plans to visit her on the eve of her exams.

During this time, he still needs to study the history and memorize some other simple rituals and potions, but he does not plan to try to use talismans or perform rituals during this time.

There will be time in the future.

Time passed quickly, and except for Sean, who had to come every day to ask if he needed his experience as a guiding light, to bother him, Ron's days in the small town of Shoshen were as noisy and dull as ever.

Anna finished the exam.

On the day she returned to the town, the entire town of Shaw Shen was cheering, and even Shaw Shen went out of his way to celebrate with the few bullets he had left, one of which fired a shot.

Anna is finally leaving!

God knows how much they have been wronged in this town because of Anna's presence! Fawkes will always remember that just an hour after he had finished pit little Ron with just one copper plate, the punch that little Anna gave him in the head still hurts faintly.

He always believed that his bad luck had something to do with this punch.

The next day, Ron and Anna packed their bags and boarded the Iron-clad car bound for Franksor.

Ron looked back and saw that John Sr. was not drunk, but squatted at the door of the tavern and looked at him in a daze.

Cal sucked his dry tobacco stick, waved at Ron, and walked back to the smithy.

The only sad person was Sean, and he didn't tell Ron the story of his encounter with the wolves, which became a regret in his heart that he couldn't make up.

However, after the iron-hulled car finally started, another pain in his heart was soothed.

The town of Chausin has regained its former noise.

It was a sunny day, and Ron and Anna sat side by side looking ahead, each full of hope for the future, each looking forward to it.

And at the destination of this iron-hulled car - Frankser, there is a long-distance rail car waiting for them, and the destination of that car is - Branslin.
