Chapter 133: Comfort
"When are you going to go back to school?"
Sophia's long hair looked softer and more fragrant after the shower, and now that the beautiful black hair was lying on her knees, Sven couldn't help but rub it a few more times.
"Huh?" Sophia felt comfortable being rubbed by her brother's hair, and she tilted her neck like a cat and looked at Swain lazily.
"I received a letter from Principal Russell who asked me why you left the school all of a sudden. I heard from the servants that you came back from school in a state of despair, and seemed to be greatly stimulated, what the hell happened?"
Hearing her brother talk about this, Sophia's face immediately pulled down, and she simply buried her head in her brother's arms, wanting to avoid the topic by being coquettish.
Swain, of course, could tell that Sophia didn't want to talk about it, but it wasn't something that could be easily revealed, so he patted Sophia on the buttocks and motioned for her to sit up and talk.
This trick is very effective for Sophia, although she likes to be coquettish to her brother, but Sophia's nature is still a shy girl, and she can't bear it if she touches the sensitive parts a little.
"What the hell is going on, if someone is bullying you, you have to tell me. ”
Swain grabbed Sophia by the waist and picked her up and sat down on his lap. This time, though, Sophia wasn't happy to get her brother's place on his lap, she pouted, obviously still reluctant to mention it.
After all, Swain had lived with Sophia for so many years, and he knew his sister's temper and weaknesses all too well. Although she is very stubborn in her bones, when facing her brother, Sophia will always lose.
"Don't you speak, if you don't speak, then I'll ......" Sven's hand went into Sophia's pajamas, and the itch that tickled that part was the most unbearable for Sophia, and Sven knew it clearly.
"Oh, don't...... Brother, don't scratch there!"
Sure enough, as soon as Sven made a move, Sophia immediately couldn't hold on, and Sophia, who was caught in her weakness, lost her strength and collapsed in her brother's arms.
The girl's fragrance burrowed into Sven's nose, but his expression still didn't change much, and there was a little inconspicuous tenderness in his eyes, but his face was still so stiff.
"Tell me what's going on. ”
Sophia stared at her brother when suddenly, two lines of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes. She clung to her brother, as if to vent all the pain and fear that had accumulated in her heart these days, Sophia howled and cried, and the cry even moved Swain unbearably.
"Don't be afraid, no matter what grievances and sadness, now that I'm by your side, just tell me what to say. I'm your brother, is there anyone closer to me than you and me in this world?"
Swain gently patted his sister's back and whispered comfort in her ear. And feeling the gentle breath of her brother, especially the rare gentleness, Sophia's crying gradually stopped, she rubbed her tearful eyes, and put her face on her brother's neck, so that the hearts of the two people fit together, and each could feel the sound of each other's heartbeat.
"Brother, we ...... Our union is sacred, and no one can criticize it, right?"
Sven was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Sophia to ask this question.
"Are you worried about getting married? If you're still not worried, when the situation calms down, I'll find an opportunity to announce our engagement to the outside world, in that case......"
"No, no, I'm not worried about this!" Sophia wrapped her arms around Swain tighter, and from the dullness in her chest, Sven could feel the fear and uneasiness in Sophia's heart, "Even if I don't get married, as long as I can be with my brother, I feel very happy." But, but ......"
"But what?" Sven asked as he kissed Sophia's earlobe softly, as softly as he could.
"That guy, that thirteenth class guy......" Sophia's arm trembled, and of course Swain sensed the feeling, "that guy called Manfred Schneider, who gave a speech at our school earlier. He said, he said......"
Sven couldn't help frowning, it was Manfred again, this guy always seemed to be haunted, and the most unbearable thing for Sven was that this guy had interfered with Sophia for the second time.
"What did he say?"
Sophia's lowered eyes became terrifying, not only because of fear and insecurity, but also because of other dark emotions.
"He said that consanguineous marriages lead to defilement of blood, disease, and rejection of the Lord......
"It's just nonsense. Swain shook his head and comforted Sophia, "Why should you believe him if that kind of person says, this guy has absolutely no bad intentions, he lied to you before, saying that I was going to marry the Hecate family, it was all his trick." And now that the thirteenth lesson is in turmoil, this guy is the leader of the chaotic party in the thirteenth lesson, what he said, which one is worth believing?"
"But......" Sophia hesitated for a moment, but still said, "but the Duke of Norformons is also married by multiple generations of close relatives, isn't it because of various congenital diseases that the family once fell into the predicament of extinction?"
"But we are not the Duke of Norforthmons. Swain's tone was a little more serious, it seemed that Sophia was really deeply affected by Manfred's words, and unconsciously began to give examples to support Manfred's theory, "Sophia, you remember, our Jericho family is the oldest nobles in the world, and our bloodline is older than Midletus I, so although it is only an earl family now, but when it comes to the nobility of blood, even the royal family cannot compare with us." The pure blood of the Duke of Norfolmons was the cause of their misery, but not the direct cause, and if you think that their blood was so pure, wasn't it the greatest trouble for the Guion lineage?
"What do you mean......" Sophia seemed to understand a point, and the haze that had been accumulating in her heart gradually became brighter, "However, there seems to be a lot of support for this theory in the school......"
"Don't think too much about it, what do those people know? Compared to our Jericho family, they are just some low-blooded guys who can hardly be called nobles. Swain hugged his sister tightly and gave Sophia the strongest comfort with his thin arms, "It doesn't matter what others think, just be firm in our beliefs." ”
"Well, brother, I listen to you. Sophia was deeply nestled in her brother's arms, and with her brother's words, she wouldn't pay attention to them no matter how much others looked at them.
What if I am truly rejected by God? If the future is hell, I am willing to go forward with my brother.
——————————————
Young walked down the streets of Puerto León with the Philip family file he had taken from the Puerto León police station. Since the Cnoille family took the titles of Prince of Pritown and Governor of Orknes, the Philip family, which has been suppressed, has become more and more miserable, especially the financial blows, which have hit the family hard. Once the aristocratic family could not maintain the expenses, then it was difficult for the family to ensure that the clan continued to enjoy aristocratic treatment, after several generations of decline, the Philip family has long been unable to pay enough dowry or dowry for the side branches to marry other nobles, so for several generations, the Philip family branch can not even maintain the status of nobility, most of them have been reduced to commoners, far away to find new opportunities.
Of course, as a big family that has been based in Pritown since the time of Edney Wayne I, although the family has been in decline in recent years, after all, it has taken root in this land for so many years, and the Philip family already has a considerable number of distant relatives, and according to Manfred's theory, the lineage and lineage inherited by these distant branches are not much different, as long as there is this bloodline, they can become Manfred's material.
According to information provided by the Port León Police Department, Yang targeted a man named Silverman Philip. This person is a distant branch of the Philip family, although he also has the surname Philip, but his relationship with the descendants is already far away, not only does he not have the identity of a nobleman, but this guy's behavior has nothing to do with the nobleman, he is like a bandit, so that even the Philip family itself is rejecting this guy.
Arms smuggling, human trafficking, well-developed transportation and excellent business environment in Port León have created an extremely rampant hotbed of crime, especially in the decades when the Philippe family has been vigorously suppressed, and on the one hand, Porto León is thriving in business, and on the other hand, the dark underground world is also thriving.
In the black area of Puerto León, Silverman Philip's name can be said to be known to everyone, everyone knows it, and he is definitely one of the top few people on the police department's wanted list, but he is also one of the few people that the police department will never arrest. Silverman's reputation, like the great nobles of the Philip family, can be regarded as a leading figure in Port Leon, but the Philip family is extremely reluctant to compare with Silverman, even those who recognize Silverman as the Philip family are unwilling, this guy's reputation is so stinky, he has done all the evil things, and he has a weird temper, no one knows what this madman will do.
Just like now, Yang got information from the police station that Silverman's residence was actually in a remote village far from the city, and it is reasonable to say that this is to protect his safety and secrecy, for an underworld boss, the enemies are always unclean, and it is normal to hide in a remote place that is difficult to find.
But when Young found Silverman's residence, he strongly suspected that those at the police station were deceiving themselves.
The house in front of him, if it could be called a house, was just a pile of tin boxes, cramped and dirty, and Yang even wondered if it was a human house or a garbage dump.
Yang let the magic extend and wrap around the strangely shaped building, and through the information sent back from the magic endings, he could be sure that there was indeed a person in the house, but this person was too far from the Seaverman described in the data. According to the police station, Silverman was a fairly strong fellow, at least 180 centimeters tall, but the man in the room was short and thin, like a mouse, and he looked like a guy who would live in such a place.
Is there an error in the information from the police station, or is it ......
Yang began to be suspicious, after all, this thing in front of him really didn't look like an underworld boss who had accumulated a lot of wealth through various criminal means, and Yang even had some doubts that someone from the police station was deliberately trying to deceive him. But as far as he was concerned, as long as he went in and took the guy out of the house and asked, everything would be clear.
The door was kicked open, followed by six swords, and before the man in the room could react, the swords were pierced through the cuffs and trouser legs, the blades brushing against his skin, and pushing him against the tattered couch.
"Mr. Silverman Phillips?"
Yang asked as he walked in slowly, staring at the man who was pinned.
"Silverman, no, I'm not Silverman!" the pinned man quickly denied it, shaking his head repeatedly, "I'm just his, uh...... Just someone to help out. ”
Yang looked at the guy, the man was not only thin and lewd, but also looked very spineless, and Yang didn't think that this guy would be Silverman.
"And where did Silverman go?" he asked, holding his sword against the other's throat.
"Go, go to the beach, on the small sand island in the southwest, he said he was going to talk to the people of the other gangs. ”
Yang left the guy behind and turned around and went out.
