Chapter Thirty-Seven: Grandma Luna
readx; Peter didn't know how to get back to his room, he couldn't fall asleep lying on the bed with his big eyes open. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info kept thinking back to what he had just heard from the innkeeper, and no matter how much he shifted his attention, the boss's face always appeared in front of him.
The appearance was not very old, and it looked like it was about fifty or sixty years old, and if it was possible to distinguish it at once on that ordinary face, it was only possible with a huge nose.
Peter always felt that a lot of information was hidden in the messages that his boss was chatting with, but now he couldn't think of what kind of news deserved to be so carefully hidden. He spun around on the bed in frustration, and finally sat up all at once, his stomach in one hand and his chin in the other, his amber eyes full of thought.
"The innkeeper named Urgat said that he never saw Neto again, so should Neto have been imprisoned by the Holy See or is he dead? No, if he is dead, there is no need for Father Cvir to issue this mission, or is it possible that Neto is a descendant? Peter kept analyzing it in his mind.
"Forget it, let's go out tomorrow and inquire, maybe there will be another man named Neto, but Urgart doesn't know it. Yes, he can't know everything. At last Peter was so comforted that he lay down again.
At dawn the next day, they left the hotel and went outside, ready to disperse to inquire about the news. Urgart sat behind the counter and watched them drunkenly, waiting until their figures disappeared before muttering to himself, "Hehe, these bastards of the Holy See are really getting more and more unruly. I don't know if they'll ever come back alive. "Said that the whole person was lying on the counter but fell asleep.
Peter and Eva Wren looked up at the sky after they parted at the door of the hotel, and the rising sun, which had finally broken free from the shackles of the horizon, was swaying its light towards the earth vividly and cheerfully.
He wiped the sweat from his face, took a deep breath, and walked in a direction. As we walked, we walked through a small square in the center of the gathering point, which was full of people who came here to buy some food or daily necessities. Peter frowned as he looked at the hustle and bustle in front of him, feeling a little unhappy from the bottom of his heart, but in order to get news of Neto, he had to endure the careful movement and ask one by one.
Unfortunately, everyone shook their heads and simply said to Peter that there was no such person living here in Taji. When Peter begged them to wonder if they had misremembered, the men smiled kindly and said to him, "Either you have the wrong name, or there is no such person." We've lived here for a long, long time, and we'll never be mistaken. ”
Peter watched in disappointment at the people around him and gave up the idea of continuing to ask. He kept an eye on his feet, avoided the dirty standing water, and left the small square.
When Peter found nothing, Eva carried Emma in her arms to a dilapidated looking house. Eva looked at the dilapidated house in front of her, and asked Emma in her arms, "Emma, are you sure you want to come here, what happened to you, why did you suddenly want to come here?" Eva asked, and at the end she held Emma up to her eyes and stared at her seriously.
Emma blinked her big eyes with an expression of not understanding anything, she looked at her current situation in confusion, stretched out her thin arm around Eva's neck, and said in a milky voice: "Sister Eva, I don't know, I just feel a familiar breath here." I don't know anything. At the end, there was a hint of crying.
Eva had no choice but to gently pat her on the back and comfort her, feeling a little helpless in her heart. She sighed, and could only walk up to the door, hesitated, and knocked on the door.
An old woman opened the door. Eva looked at the old woman in front of her and only felt that there seemed to be an indescribable feeling, but before she could think clearly, she saw the old woman staring at Emma in her arms with excitement. Eva suddenly became alert, and she quickly hugged Emma tightly and took a few steps back.
But Emma, who has always been well-behaved and sensible, is now constantly thrashing her arms in her arms and trying to pounce on the old grandmother.
Eva stopped in confusion, she kept looking at Emma in her arms, and then carefully looked at the excited grandmother in front of her, and suddenly had a glimmer of realization in her heart. So she stood there quietly and waited for the other party.
Sure enough, she didn't have to wait too long, and the old woman gradually calmed down. She looked at Emma who was struggling in Eva's arms, smiled, and said to Eva, "Can you put her down, I think you're holding Emma, right?" I'm her grandmother, rest assured, everyone here knows it, I won't hurt her, and of course I'm welcome to come in if I can. After saying that, he took a step back and smiled kindly at Emma.
Emma suddenly fell silent in Eva's arms, and Eva was relieved to confirm what she had just thought. However, she didn't just let Emma go, she saluted the old woman and followed her into the room.
To her surprise, although the house looked dilapidated from the outside, when she walked in, she found that the whole house looked very clean and tidy, giving people a comfortable and comfortable feeling.
The old lady made them a cup of tea and then motioned for a drink, and Eva sat down at the table. Emma in her arms leaned comfortably on her, kicking her little legs from time to time, and she looked pretty good.
The old grandmother sat down, and she looked carefully at Emma in Eva's arms. Seeing the red little face and the thin body with yellow hair due to malnutrition, these are so cute in her eyes. She seemed to be staring at Emma for a long time without saying a word. Eva tried to open her mouth several times, but closed her mouth again, she couldn't bear to disturb the warm atmosphere now.
It took a long time for the old woman to sigh heavily, and she smiled at Eva with a grateful smile and said, "I know that child, you have a lot of things you want to know and want to ask. But until then, can you let me hug Emma, by the way, you can call me Luna. With that, she looked at Eva with hope and longing in her eyes.
Eva hesitated but gently lowered Emma to the ground, and as soon as Emma landed, she ran to Luna's side and looked at her earnestly, raising her neck.
Granny Luna touches the top of Emma's head with a smile on her face and picks her up, and Emma lets out a burst of cheerful laughter in her arms. Eva watched the interaction between their grandparents and grandchildren, and her heart slowly melted.
After a long time, Luna apologized for Eva and said, "I'm sorry, it's easy to forget things when you're old." I think you're the monks of Cromwell's Abbey Redemption House. Thank you for bringing Emma back, and of course I know you have a lot of questions and I'll answer them slowly. By the way, I think you and your companion are staying at the hotel in Urgart, but Urgart didn't say anything to you? Well, it doesn't seem like so, so it's a problem. As she spoke, her face slowly became heavy.
Eva was puzzled, and she asked, "Ergat, is that the innkeeper?" I'm sorry I seem to be a bit of a mess right now. Eva smiled apologetically.
Luna looked at her like this and comforted her, "It's okay, let's eat first, let's talk about the rest when we're done." ”xh.212
