In the inn room of the small town of Beiyuan, Eco opened the curtains and let the bright sunlight fall on her. He stood by the window for a moment, looking condescendingly at the streetscape. Soon, he went downstairs in full shape. At this time, there were few people in the store, except for a yawning reception standing behind the counter, and only a hangover customer snored in the corner.
Echo ordered a meal, and chose a place by the window to taste it slowly, the hard bread and a few shriveled turnips were really chewy, but his mind was not on these foods, he was still waiting for himβthe woman named Rosalyn said that she would arrange a carriage to pick up Sean today.
Speaking of which, he seems to be a little stiff with this white sparrow from Akagi. In yesterday's contact, Rosherine took him to meet a large group of people as if she were showing off her influence. Some of them were engaged in the craft, but most of them were performers, led by Rosherine, and the woman was really only an agent of the connector. According to everyone, Akajun's original connector had already dumped the affairs of the white sparrow to his adopted daughter, that is, Roselyn, who was praised by them, due to his ill health. After all, they were trying to persuade him not to care about the girl's identity.
Actually, he doesn't care about these false names, whether the person who can take care of things is Rosalyn or the one named Zach is not the point. The point is that Rosherine clearly wants to do something superfluous - use Sean as a guise to increase the influence of the White Sparrow. Perhaps the White Sparrow will eventually become the "opinion leader" of the public, but a guild with even the potential to influence voters is enough to unsettle politicians, and Roseline's ambitions seem to go beyond that, will she put Elada on her back?
Yesterday, he tactfully stated several times that it was not appropriate to make a big deal about Sean, and that it was the most important thing to seek justice for him and protect him, but Rosalyn misinterpreted his statement many times. If he had been called Akachi, he would have laughed at the woman's ambitions with a snack, but now that the situation had changed, he had no right to tarnish Ekko's identity.
Ekor subconsciously smoothed her hair and pulled her thoughts back to Elada. There are a lot of festivals in that place, and after the spring festival, the family who took him in should be busy for the summer float party, right? And did Sailor get the information from the dark spirits? The merchant named Astut shouldn't break his promise, right?
Suddenly, he frowned. That high-ranking member of the Dark Spirit, that Astut Richaman, seems to have said that he will arrange a helper for him, and that so-called helper could be Roselyn? Just like the scorpion Zoe, who also became the White Sparrow's connector in Dstin under the alias Alex?
Ekor was in a state of thought, when suddenly, the howl of something overturning and someone falling reached his ears. He looked towards the source of the sound and saw a well-dressed young man rubbing his ankles with tears in his eyes, and a chair lying down at his feet. Not far away, the hostess burst out laughing, and the young man seemed to hear the insult from the laughter, and he got up from the ground, and shouted in a loud voice, "Which guy set the chair?"
As soon as he spoke, Eko looked at him again because of the familiarity of his voice. At this moment, the young man's face turned red, and from the thick lips that resembled red intestines, Eko immediately recognized him as a newcomer to the church the day before, and his name seemed to be Gap Vodi.
"Whose chair is this? Someone who doesn't care?" Gap shouted again when he saw that no one had responded. The cacophony made the waiter behind the counter shrug his shoulders.
"You have hands, don't you?
"What? It's stumbling over people, it's stumbling over me, and what kind of tone are you talking about? There's no such thing in the city. β
"Then you should go back to the city, and don't come to this country place. β
"Eyes, boy!" The guy who was curled up in the corner and snoring joined in, helping the hostess taunt Gapp.
Ekor saw that Gap began to speak incoherently under the words of the two, and couldn't help but recall his embarrassing performance at the initiation ceremony. That unsophisticated, vengeful tone may have something to do with his good family and comfortable life - it is said that his father was a good investor and owned a number of properties in Aka-gun. Why should such a well-off person join the homophony and become a white sparrow? Isn't it good to be a hedonistic rich kid and then seek an idle job in the future?
Gap slammed the table.
"You haven't figured out where you're standing yet, have you?" he said angrily threatening the clerk. Ikor immediately stood up when she heard this.
"Gap, come here!" he waved his hand.
Turning to see him, as if he had finally found an excuse to get out, Gap walked a few quick steps to Ekor despite the innkeeper's mocking boos behind his back.
"Hello, uh, what do you call ......"
"Call me Ekko. β
"Is Rosherine still here? Something's wrong! Hey, I'm stupid, and I'm the same with you!"
Gap suddenly whispered in Ekko's ear, "The military took the veterans away last night, and I don't know what to do." β
"Is the news reliable?" said Ikko, skeptical. Yesterday, he had just looked at Sean's file. A large part of the reason why this man was mistreated by the army was that his actions provoked the upper echelons - Sean had a physical altercation with the relevant officials in order to petition for his comrades, and he once again spoke passionately at crowded rallies to protest the army's new law. But why did the army take the man away at this time?
Beside Ekko, Gap swore like a curse, gesturing and explaining how reliable his sources were. Eko waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to explain more, and then he asked Gap, "Is Sean the only one taken?"
"Who else are they going to mess with?"
At this moment, Rosherine led the people into the inn, and Ekor couldn't help but let out a soft sigh when she saw that she was followed by an elven woman in a black robe. When Rosherine saw him, she raised her hand and pointed to the stairs.
"Go upstairs and talk to your room. Then she took the elf and went up first.
Ikor looked at the backs of the two and frowned slightly. When he met Sean earlier, the veteran was on the verge of collapse, and the military's attitude at that time seemed to be waiting for him to fend for himself. What changed the situation? Is it because of the white sparrow? The military's sense of smell is a little too sharp. Or is it the dark spirit behind the scenes that stimulates the military, who have already abandoned Sean, and at the same time forces their group of white sparrows to get deeper involved in the incident in order to keep Sean?
What the dark spirit did was obviously to muddy the pool of Chijun politics. It is estimated that in the next step, they are ready to fish in troubled waters and plant people, and is this situation what Rosherine is looking forward to?
