Chapter 28: Greed, Sin, and Lies

The next day in the sun, with Vicky's long blue hair hanging down from his shoulders, he took the initiative to speak to Miss Joluya for the first time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Isn't it inappropriate for you to waste your time with me if you care so much about Yuri?"

"Don't worry, even if that guy Yuri is thrown into the primeval forest for three days and three nights, he will be strong and survive. ”

When Qiao Luya said this, she had a very proud look.

"Are you selling favors to me in the hope that I will be Yuri's help in the future?"

"That's the reason, hahaha. ”

"People like you are not sincere at all. Always selfishly thinking about their own children. ”

"No way, as an elder of a child, it's always like this. Qiao Luya smiled and said, "Do you want me to be your guardian too?"

"Don't take an inch. ”

"Oh. Miss Qiao Luya shrugged aggrievedly.

Vicky's eyes lit up, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It turns out that the Seven Holy Horsemen are also this kind of children's love guys. The real responsible commander is the Predator who can temporarily put his family and children aside for the sake of national affairs. Even when the child is sick, he will not retreat from the battlefield, and he will always not take care of it. ”

Miss Qiao Luya suddenly put away her smile and said, "Anyway, I can't do this kind of thing." Keeping the peace, stopping the fighting, is just to make life easier for the children. Anyway, no matter how hard I fought every day, I don't know what the meaning of this lost day is if I can't rush home at the last moment of the day and look at my child's sleeping face tiredly. ”

"What would happen to you if Yuri got sick while you were fighting!"

"Will try his best to end this fight quickly, and then rush back like crazy. Qiao Luya replied without thinking.

Virgie's heart fluttered.

"You didn't raise a child yourself, so you're still talking about putting your family and your children aside for now. But one day you will understand, Virgie, children are everything, and we will all become extremely selfish for the sake of children!"

Virgie recalled the selfless righteous act of General Baker, and compared it with Miss Qiaoluya's words at this moment, and his heart was suddenly filled with a strong sense of disobedience.

"Did General Baker decide to take the city because of this selfishness, after all? His son, who seems to have been sick, can't afford to spend it in the trading city. ”

Virgie couldn't help but be surprised when he said this, he originally thought that General Baker was also a poor father, and in order to defend the city, he had not been able to take care of his sick child, and finally was tormented by this longing to the point of distorted personality, which was also a sympathetic tragedy. Then there is no need to mention this matter again, and you can't talk about it to anyone, at least you can take all the blame for it yourself, and fulfill this pair of sympathetic father and son.

Indeed, in front of the previous priests and psychomeliers, Virgil had been secretive about this matter, but he didn't expect that when he talked about trivial matters with Miss Qiao Luya, he was moved to reveal the secret. His head was racing fast, and he was trying to find a good way to round this matter, but he didn't expect Miss Qiao Luya to say, "But the Baker family doesn't have a son, only an eldest lady." ”

The sound of pigeons flapping their wings in unison outside the window exploded in Virgil's ears like thunder.

"You mean...... Am I being deceived?"

Miss Qiao Luya looked at the sky: "So Virgil, if you simply sentence yourself to death like this, wouldn't it be too conniving for those who deserve to be tried even more?"

Virgie clenched the sheets hard, tears rolling out of her red eyes.

Miss Jolua took out the Mirror of Shadows, broke off a small sharp shard, and placed it in Virgil's hand.

"If I could continue to talk to you, I should have spent more time lala, so annoying that you think suicide is troublesome, and let you eat obediently. Unfortunately, the situation in Holy Thorn City is urgent, and I must go back. This little piece is here as a parting gift. It is an interesting treasure that can be transformed into various things at will, such as a small dagger. You can plunge a dagger into your heart and kill yourself in this way, which will be much easier than a hunger strike. ”

Miss Jolua stood up, and for the first time put on a sad expression in front of Virgil.

"But I'd feel a pity, because in my mind, Virgi is smarter and kinder than all the kids. If only you could be my child, too. ”

And the last sentence that Miss Qiao Luya really left behind seemed so nonsensical.

"I didn't eat all of today's meal for you, just the amount left is the most suitable for a person who has been on hunger strike for several days. Overeating after a long period of hunger is poisonous, so goodbye, Vicky. ”

In the atrium of the Great Sanctuary of the Holy Blood Thorn, Baker said unexpectedly, "I didn't expect you to have a relationship with Qiao Luya. ”

Virgi smiled brightly and said, "As I said, Miss Qiao Luya has been kind to me. Later, I learned that Miss Qiao Luya's trust in me was not as simple as words. Because she must have known that I would be able to find out the details of that little fragment, and if I had failed her trust, her true destiny would have been revealed years ago. ”

Yuri nervously asked, "You accepted the teacher's proposal and didn't turn that fragment into a dagger to kill yourself, right?"

Virgi pursed her lips and smiled, "On the contrary, that's what I did, turning the shards into a dagger and stabbing myself in the chest. ”

At that time, Vicky's blood soaked all the sheets, almost scaring the nurse who came to make rounds faint.

"Damn! how did Virgy get a dagger!"

"Anyway, send him to the Royal Hospital for first aid!"

"Hurry, hurry, slow and maybe you won't survive!"

The priests tried to heal Virgie's wounds, but Virgil's chest was blurred with blood, and it was impossible to see how bad the wounds were. As the nurses carried Virgie to the entrance of the nursing home, Virgie suddenly woke up, groaning and reaching out to her pocket.

"You...... Do you want us to take out the contents?"

Virgi nodded effortlessly.

"Is it your suicide note?"

Virgie nodded again.

But when the nurses turned their pockets out, they just asked, "How is bread?"

"It's bread with stun runes written in jam. Virgy sat up and said unhurriedly.

"W-What?"

Before the words fell, a colorful dazzling line of light shot out from the runes on the bread, hitting the eyes of the nurses and ladies, and everyone fell to the ground in just one second.

"I'm sorry, but I still have to figure it out. ”

Virgy wrapped the wound on his hand and tore away the blood-soaked tissue on his chest, indicating that his blood came from the wound on his arm, while his chest was not injured.

Then, enduring the intense pain, he turned and hid in the endless lavender fields, and in this way escaped from the prison known as the sanatorium.

In the luxurious restaurant of the royal capital, the decorated General Baker and his colleagues feasted.

"His name is very loud, what a Grim Reaper military division, in fact, he is just an innocent child after all. There's nothing easier than impressing a little warmth and blood with a little warmth and enthusiasm with a little kid that no one wants. ”

His colleague with a small conspicuous goatee and a treacherous and cunning look looked at Baker with admiration and asked in a low voice, "How did you convince the Reaper Army to attack a neutral city?"

"First of all, let him believe that my duke is selfless and trustworthy, children, I like to worship heroes, worship those great heroes who can't even take care of their families for the sake of national affairs. Since I like this kind of drama, I will act such a drama for him. My son is seriously ill at home, but I can only send his meager salary to see a doctor, and I can never leave the trade city. Virgie didn't hesitate to sympathize with me. ”

A colleague gives a thumbs up: "What a brilliant idea!"

"Dude, it's just a story, and no one will believe it, do you understand?" said Baker, his fingers running over his white beard.

"Of course, of course. Also, Brother Baker, I've already delivered your shipment. ”

"Can you sell it for a good price on the black market?"

"Of course, the quality of this shipment is very pure, and even in candlelight, it is brilliant enough to illuminate the whole castle. ”

The colleague said nervously, "The kid who was locked up won't confess these things, right?"

"He never knew about these things, why did he confess?"

Baker crushed the lobster hard: "He still has to thank me." If it weren't for the siege of this city, how could this kid become such a famous Reaper military master? He lives in a sanatorium, eats and drinks spicy food, and as long as he gives advice to the chief knight one day in the future, it will be easy for him to rise to the top. Do you think it's a win-win?"

The brown-haired aristocratic boy who was only ten meters away from them smiled and said to the waiter, "I'm sorry, my red wine is spilled, can you bring me a new glass?"

It was from this second that Virgy learned to face no matter how shocking the news was, with a relaxed smile.

He thought he would never put his joy and anger on his face until he met Yuri.

But for now, let's move on to Vicky's covert investigation of Baker.

The items that reflect the candle flame to illuminate the house seem to refer to the sacred metal "Huijin" of the Sun Elf clan.

Glow and Mithril have the same lofty status, compared to the property of Mithril to reflect all light, the property of Glow is that when it is vibrated by external forces, it can emit light, which is used to make jewelry, dazzling and valuable.

And that neutral city that was breached was the main market for people to trade in Huijin.

Virgie wrote all the clues down on paper, realizing that General Baker's real purpose in attacking the city across the street was to rob the Pyroxidium that was being traded in the market, and not to rush home to take care of his sick child.
