Chapter 209: Remorse

He is an adult, and his views on some things are much more mature, and he has long wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Yun'er, but he has never dared to speak.

This time, with the incident of the princess, it can be regarded as a leak of the window paper, which is a matter of time or time.

At the moment, he was sitting in his room, waiting for someone to arrive.

Sure enough, after a while, a sturdy young man pushed the door and walked in.

Philip looked up at the young man's handsome face, and a hint of disappointment and sadness flashed in his eyes.

"Sit down. He spoke.

The boy did not sit down, but suddenly fell on one knee in front of him, his proud head bowed hard, and his beautiful light gray hair almost fell to the ground.

"I did it, I was wrong. The hoarse voice seemed to be squeezed out of his chest, dull and weak, and there was a hint of trembling.

Philip didn't stretch out his hand to help him up, just let him kneel there, and after a long time he spoke again: "I thought it was Phelps, but I didn't expect it to be you."

Randall, why?"

Yes, the teenager kneeling in front of Philip at this moment is none other than Randall, one of the members of the Green Vine Champion Team, who did not attend the championship battle, but still contributed a great amount to the team.

Randall didn't speak, just knelt there as if he had exhausted him, and his originally radiant peach blossom eyes were full of remorse and helplessness at the moment.

Philip didn't rush him, but waited quietly, recalling the bits and pieces since the formation of the team in his mind.

Randall is the pistachio of the whole team, outgoing and lively, likes to be boisterous, and is a little sentimental.

When his teammates are depressed, he is always the first to notice and try to make him happy, even at the cost of being stupid, until his teammates show a smile, and he will happily eat an extra chicken leg.

But at the same time, he is also the most sentimental one in the team, and after every victory, he is the first person to cry with joy.

It's hard to say who he has the best relationship with on the team, except for Chuck, who is also from Hunter, but almost everyone likes him.

Because his character is very simple, like a child who has not grown up.

I cry when I'm happy, I cry when I'm sad, I always can't hide my heart, I like to show it, but I didn't expect that there is such a huge secret hidden deep in my heart.

One can imagine how tormented he will be these days.

But this was no reason for betrayal, and although Philip would have liked to reach out and help him up, reason had made him hesitate not to do so.

He was waiting, waiting for Randall to tell him the real reason.

And then how to do it, to be honest, Philip doesn't know at the moment.

After a while, Randall looked up and looked at Philip.

Instead, Philip lowered his eyelids and did not look at the red eyes full of tears, for he was afraid that he would be soft-hearted, that he would easily say words of forgiveness.

It's not fair to him, it's not fair to his relatives, it's not fair to the teenagers of the green tree vine.

Fortunately, Randall's tears were not because he was begging for forgiveness, but because of remorse.

He wiped away a handful of tears, stood up, sat down across from Philip, and said, "Just the eve of the battle with Steven, someone handed me a note.

It's an address for me to go and tell no one.

Originally, I thought it was a prank, so I ignored it.

But there was a name at the end of the note that made me have to go.

So I waited until you were all asleep before sneaking out of the hotel on my own.

I didn't expect that this was the beginning of the nightmare, but I didn't realize it at the time. ”

Philip didn't ask who it was, and since Randall had spoken, he would say it all, so he didn't rush him to sort out his thoughts.

Until now, whether there were still enemies hiding in the shadows, Philip did not know.

But since the other party can find a killer like Emily, it is likely that there are others.

Sure enough, Randall continued, "Ace, it's the girl's name, we met during the holidays we first came to the imperial capital.

At the time, I thought it was just an encounter at a bar, and I drank too much and didn't pay attention.

But after the incident, I learned that she was only 13 years old and not yet an adult.

She was crying so much that it took me a lot of time and money to get it done.

I thought it was over, but I didn't expect her to suddenly find me again that day.

I wondered how she knew my information, but I had to go to that place as she asked.

It was just her and another slightly older girl who wasn't trying to blackmail me, she just said she was your fan, and they organized a big event for me to remind you the next day.

At that time, there were already a lot of your fans outside the hotel, and I thought it was no big deal, so I agreed while breathing a sigh of relief. ”

Philip remembered what happened later, and it was with Randall's reminder the next day that he noticed the girls who were different.

And after that, he repeatedly hinted and encouraged other teenagers, hoping to invite these girls.

Randall already had a pair of peach blossom eyes, and he was a boy's recognized playboy, and as his nickname suggested, it was normal for him to behave like this.

Philip didn't spoil everyone's excitement either, and then the carnival event followed.

At the same time, the cautious Philip did not make any excessive moves, and even asked Paul to privately check Emily's situation, and the results of the investigation showed that it really seemed to be just an ordinary fan incident.

At that time, he was addicted to similar scenes that he had heard of in his previous life, and he was full of emotion, but he didn't expect that the other party was so cunning that he didn't attack him directly, but chose the partner around him.

From this point of view, is Philip responsible, perhaps.

Randall continued: "The next day, you were really interested when you saw it, and I added fuel to it.

Unexpectedly, the girl came to my room that night, and I didn't think too much about it.

It wasn't until the next morning that she asked me to sneak into your room for her, wanting to take one of your belongings as a souvenir.

Although I felt a little strange, she always involved that Ace in her words, so I said yes.

But I didn't know she had taken your dagger, because all she showed me was an ordinary handkerchief.

I thought it was over, but she pestered me and kept asking you about your habits, hobbies, and so on.

Some I told her, some of which were perfunctory.

When she realized this, she officially tore her face, threatened me with Ace's affairs, and mastered some of my privacy, you know, that night.

If I don't agree to her request, she will go to a reporter to expose me, or even report me to the vigilantes, in that case, the scandal will affect the green tree vine and you will be affected.

I had no choice but to tell her everything about you.

Until she became more and more demanding, and even asked me to lose in the last match, which I would never agree.

So ......"

"So you pretended to make a deal with Chris and gave him the chance to play. Philip said.

Randall bowed his head and said, "Yes, with you, even if I release the water, it won't do much effect."

What's more, this is our common dream, and I will never exchange this for conditions.

It's just that I really didn't expect them to be so insidious.

It was only after the incident that I learned that they had taken your dagger.

For two days, I was so frightened that even Chuck could feel my uneasiness.

It's just that he thought I was getting past me because I had that fight with Wesley.

Then they came to me again and asked me to find out about you. ”

Philip interjected at this point, "But you didn't have the courage to ask me directly, but you egged up Phelps to turn my suspicious gaze to him, right?"

Randall lowered his head again, didn't speak, just remained silent.

Philip asked, "Has the girl who blackmailed you all along? Have you ever met her accomplices?"

Randall nodded and said, "Yes, she said that her name is Leilei, and she is a student of the Imperial Capital Oak Academy.

But looking back, I think it was fake, because the other girls didn't seem to be familiar with her on the night of the party, and she didn't show up on the night of the concert. ”

Philip sighed and said in a deep voice, "You made two mistakes, I don't mean stealing my things, but you didn't trust us partners from the bottom of your heart.

First, when they threaten you, you should think of telling us that what you can't do, Chuck and I can do.

But you chose to hide it, and I guess you are not simply out of fear, but because you have low self-esteem, and you don't want to make yourself appear weak and incompetent in front of us.

Second, you betrayed not only me, but also Horps, and you took advantage of his kindness and trust.

I guess you're doing this because he's the only one of us who doesn't come from a family that comes from a lower family than you, just a commoner.

Even if I doubt him, he has little power to resist.

Right?"

Randall disappointed him, and judging by the whole thing, he didn't do anything too out of the ordinary, as if he had been kept in the valley from start to finish.

Even in the key sense of team honor, it retains a minimum sense of mission.

Even if Philip knew, he shouldn't have looked into it.

But Philip was still disappointed, because this was a child who had been deformed by self-esteem and hypocrisy, so that the outward appearance was so diametrically opposed to the inside.

Until now, he has not truly repented of what he has done.

Sure enough, Randall's emotions became excited, and he said loudly: "Yes, I envy you very much, you and Bruce have such a good relationship, closer than brothers."

You can call for wind and rain in the imperial capital, you can have groups of subordinates, and you can have endless money.

As long as you say it, there are countless people who will do everything for you.

But what about me, I was only my father's second son, my mother used to be just a maid in the family, and my birth was just a mistake. ”
