Chapter 140: Al's Innocence

Aunt May, Old Howard, Uncle Hulan, and even his father John all died at his own hands, and Al's first thought was not to believe it, he didn't believe what was presented on that picture, but in Al's heart, there was a voice telling him that what was presented on that picture was very likely to be true, and it was all about to happen.

Al also wondered if he would be able to avoid everything he saw on that picture if he never went back.

But after thinking about it, Al still couldn't make up his mind to really ignore everything in Linshan Town, and couldn't escape from it as if he didn't know all this, so Al came back, and without hesitation, he was ready to lose his life and came back.

When he returned to Linshan Town, it was already night, and there were still many people in the train station, but to Al's surprise, the soldiers of the Grant family, who were supposed to be patrolling the train station, were now gone.

Frowning slightly, Al put on the hood of his cloak and followed the crowd out of the train station.

Al looked around as he walked, and at this time he vaguely felt that the atmosphere in Linshan Town was a little strange, but he couldn't tell where the strange place was.

After thinking about it, Al walked directly to Old Howard's small bookstore, he planned to ask Old Howard about the situation in Linshan Town first, and then judge what he should do next according to the corresponding situation.

However, when Al walked to Howard Sr.'s bookstore, he saw a small bookstore with no light and the door closed.

Originally, when he saw the small bookstore with the door closed, Al was about to turn around and leave, but at this time. Al suddenly saw that the door was unlocked.

Al had been with Howard Sr. for many years and knew Howard Sr.'s habits. If he went out, he would never lock the door.

And the door of the small bookstore is not locked. There is only one thing that can be proven, that is, old Howard is afraid that something will happen!

Thinking of this, Al stepped forward and pushed open the door of the small bookstore and walked in, looking at the dark small bookstore, Al walked to the counter of the small bookstore and lit the oil lamp, and suddenly the whole small bookstore became bright, and Al also saw the whole picture of the small bookstore.

I saw that everything was normal in the small bookstore, and there was no dust on the table. Apparently Howard Sr. didn't stay away for long.

Seeing this, Al looked around, even the hut where the old books and newspapers were stored inside, but found no valuable clues.

Just as Al was about to leave, he suddenly saw a bottle of wine placed under the counter of the small bookstore, the lid of which was open and placed on the side of the bottle, and the glass on the side also contained a small half of the wine.

However, this seems to be an ordinary scene. But it just made Al not wrinkle.

For Al knew very well that this bottle was one of Howard Sr.'s wines, something he cherished so much, even if it was urgent. Old Howard wouldn't leave without closing the lid of the bottle, and the only way to make Old Howard leave like this was that he was forcibly taken away. Or maybe this one is kidnapped.

With his eyes narrowed, Al got up and prepared to leave for Aunt May's house and Grant Manor.

And yet at this very moment. A bolt suddenly shot out of the door, grazed Al's cheek and nailed to the wall behind him.

If it weren't for Al's dodge, it would have been timely. Then I'm afraid this crossbow arrow will be nailed directly to Al's face.

Al dodged the sneak attack of the crossbow arrows, obviously exceeding the expectations of the man outside, but the man did not hesitate much, but continued to shoot several crossbow arrows at Al, each of which was aimed at the vital point of Al's body!

Al quickly took off his cloak, constantly rotating the cloak to interfere with the shooting of the crossbow arrows, and then he quickly rushed in the direction where the crossbow arrows were fired, ready to deal a fatal blow to the other party, but at this moment, Al suddenly heard the other party call out his name in a little surprise.

"Al, why are you here?"

As the voice sounded, a one-armed and one-eyed old man walked out of the shadows outside, and when he saw the other party, Al immediately recognized that it was the old Fa'an that Al had brought to look for aconite grass in old Howard before!

Seeing Old Fa'an, Al immediately stepped forward, came to Old Fa'an's side and said, "Old Fa'an, do you know where Old Howard went, I think something is very wrong in Linshan Town, but something happened." ”

Old Fa'an looked at Al, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Al, get out of here now, don't come back, never come back, this is not where you can come back."

Since you can't find old Howard, then let him be dead, and since you didn't see your father, then let him be dead, or if you do go to Grant Manor, then I'm afraid you'll fall into their trap.

I don't know why they did it, but I know very well that everything here is laid out for you, and if you step into Grant Manor, you'll be in a trap and you'll never get out.

So whether it's me, or Howard Sr., who is trapped at Grant Manor, or your father, I'm pretty sure they don't want you back.

So get out of here, get out of here, and never come back!"

Listening to old Faan's words, Al's face gradually became gloomy, he didn't think about it, and finally thought of all kinds of things he had encountered before, those inconspicuous, inconspicuous, obvious, and inconspicuous, all together, Al finally came to a conclusion.

That is, his identity as a wizard is exposed, and there are people who want to deal with him, but because of his relationship with Artoria, and his status as a student and witcher of Solangjoya, those people are not able to deal with themselves in the open, and choose to lead themselves into their trap.

As long as his identity as a wizard is exposed, then no matter which side he is, it is impossible to be his umbrella in the open!

And the person who can do this, or the force, except for the Church of the Lord of Billions of Radiance, there is no second force that meets the above conditions, and even Al can guess that the leader of this mission of the Church of the Lord of Billions of Radiance is very likely to be Lancer, who was rescued by El in the Snake Forest Mansion!

Thinking of this, Al looked at Old Fa'an, with three points of relief, and said to Old Fa'an helplessly: "Old Fa'an, was Old Howard taken away by the people of the Church of the Lord of Radiance?"

Hearing Al's words, Old Fa'an was slightly stunned, then nodded helplessly, and said: "That's right, they were taken away by the people of the Church of the Lord of Billions of Radiance, if it weren't for the fact that they didn't know that I also knew you, then I'm afraid even I would have been taken away by those damn gods!"

Hearing Old Fa'an's words, Al was slightly stunned, and then frowned and said, "Old Fa'an, what you just said...... Could it be that there was anyone other than Howard Sr. who had been taken away by the Church of the Lord of Radiance?"

Nodding helplessly, Old Fa'an looked at Al, nodded and said, "That's right, not only Old Howard, but also Mei's family of four, these people in Linshan Town who have a good relationship with you have been taken away by those damn magic sticks." ”

Hearing old Faan's words, Ayrton took a step back, he took a deep breath, suppressed the anger that kept surging in his heart, he held back his anger, looked at old Fa'an and said, "How do they know? Why do they know that I have a good relationship with old Howard and Aunt May?"

With a wry smile, Old Fa'an looked at Al and said, "It's actually very simple, because there are many people who work for those gods in the Church of the Lord of Radiance, including that town mayor Uso, and your half-brother Alan, Alan Grant!"

Hearing this, Al looked at Old Fa'an a little blankly, if Uso, the mayor of Linshan Town, who was overshadowed by John, would help the Hundreds of Millions of Radiant Lords' Church, Al could still imagine it, but as Al's half-brother, Alan would help the Billions of Radiant Lords' Church, which was absolutely unimaginable to Al.

In Al's opinion, although Alan hated himself for driving his mother crazy and killing his uncle, he was John's son after all, half the owner of Grant Manor, why would he do such an act of helping the enemy?

Looking at Al's puzzled look, Old Fa'an sighed and said: "Right Charming Eyes, you may think that Alan should have no reason to help the Church of the Lord of Billions of Radiance, but you didn't expect that you are the future Baron Grant, and the fact that he, Alan Grant's future is just Alan Grant, is enough for him to do anything crazy."

Don't believe it, isn't it because of this reason that you have been treated like that before?

Because your stepmother wants her son to become a future baron, it is naturally better for you, as the eldest son, to die.

It's just that your life is very hard, and you are also very capable, not only did you not be killed by them, but you also avenged yourself.

But what you didn't expect is that this half-brother of yours has the same thoughts as his mother.

Al, needless to say, your ability to grasp many things is better than ours old guys, but you are really too naïve about feelings, feelings in this world are precious, but not everyone thinks so.

If you get away with it this time, then you must remember not to put your feelings on everyone, otherwise you will be hurt even more than you are today.

Al, you have to harden your heart, make your heart dark, and be indifferent, and only in this way can you live better and protect the people you want to protect, this world is like this, you can only live by conforming to the world!"
