Chapter 132: The Truth Revealed
Lin wanted to step forward to catch up, but suddenly felt a chest tightness and headache, and his face became even more unsightly than before. He is now like this, let alone chasing Gao Ze, who is emotionally out of control, but it is difficult to trot two steps.
Roland sensed Lin's abnormality and asked in a low voice, "I'll send you over?" ”
Lin nodded helplessly, after all, he had no other way.
So after Roland greeted Rand, he used Rand's carriage to carry Lin and began to look for Gao Ze.
"Do you know where he's going?" Roland asked.
Lin shook his head: "You should also know that Gao Ze has always looked at me unpleasantly. So except in the war school, he usually doesn't take me with him much when he wants to do something. For some reason, Lin felt that his head seemed to be more dizzy than just now, and his right eye was a little painful.
The horse stopped.
Roland asked, "Then how can we find him?" ”
Lin took a deep breath, calmed down and thought about it carefully, and said: "Gao Ze is sensitive and suspicious by nature, and now that this incident has hit him so hard, I think he should also need an emotional outburst." So what would ignite his anger? should be the culprit of this matter, that is, Valentine himself. Gao Ze has worshiped Valentin as a treasure for so many years, and originally expected to rely on him to turn over, but he didn't expect to attract such a result, Gao Ze should be full of anger towards Valentin now, right? So I think Gao Ze should have gone to find Valentine. And Valentine likes to go to a place with water when he is troubled, so I think the two of them should be right next to the lake in the nearby Central Park! ”
When Roland heard this, he immediately drove the carriage to the central park.
As a result, when they arrived, they really found traces of Valentine and Gao Ze here, and even the little prince Gao Le of the Land of Streams was here!
At this time, Valentine was standing in front of Gao Ze in despair, his face full of remorse.
It seems that the mystery of true and false prophets has been completely solved at this moment.
The expression on Valentine's face twitched a few times, and then he whispered, "I'm sorry...... Gao Ze, I didn't mean to lie to you. I just wanted to get out of the miserable life I used to live so badly, that's why I told such a little lie. didn't expect that this lie would get bigger and bigger, so that it reached the point where it was now uncontrollable. ”
It turned out that Valentine grew up and lived in a slum since he was a child, and he experienced sadness and hardship. So he secretly made up his mind at a very young age that he must make a good life for himself! But how could someone like him, who had no skills, be able to live the life he wanted so easily? That's why he lied to the guards in charge of their precinct, falsely claiming to be a prophet.
Who knew that the guard really believed Valentine's lie, and reported it layer by layer, until it reached the king. At that time, the king was also suffering from the predicament of the country of Jianzhi, and he was quite sick and rushed to the hospital, so he really announced Valentine into the palace and entertained him with delicious food and drink.
Valentine had never experienced such a life before, and he was immediately fascinated by this drunken life. So he started telling lie after lie, just to maintain this life.
And because Valentine is really a gifted mage, his identity has not been revealed over the years, until he came to the War College.
Valentine sighed and said, "Actually, over the years, I haven't lived in a state of panic, always worried that I will be exposed soon. I know that you brought me to Double Moon City with you, and you have high expectations for me. But your expectations of me are so high that it makes it difficult for me to make up for my initial mistakes through one lie after another. But I also know that the bubble of lies will eventually be punctured one day. So now that it's been exposed, I feel a lot more relaxed. ”
If he could, Valentine also hoped that he could be a beacon of confidence for Gao Ze. He has always tried hard to be the best he can be, to act like a genius prophet.
It's a pity that in the War College, a place like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, even if Valentine has been working very hard secretly, he can't become what Gao Ze wants.
There are too many talented people in Twin Moon City who can do better than him, a "prophet", so he can't use his "talents" to bluff people and pretend to be very powerful like he did when he was in the Land of Streams. This is probably the fundamental reason why Valentine was exposed so quickly.
Faced with Valentine's monologue, Gao Ze's emotions also collapsed: "What about me? Is it over with a word of sorry? Now that I really have nothing, am I doing all this on my own? Gao Ze's voice was sad and desperate, and through this voice, it seemed that people could really touch the sorrow in his heart. For him, all these years of hard work and faith completely collapsed at this moment.
The central park itself has a complex environment, and there are many citizens who hang out and take a stroll here. Now there is a sudden quarrel here on the lakeside, which will inevitably attract the attention and onlookers of some people.
So although the atmosphere at the scene was a little depressing and dreary, Lin still paid attention to the impact and wanted to persuade Gao Ze and Valentine to go back first. Don't confront each other in public.
After all, their presence in Twin Moon City represents the face of the country of streams, and their every move will affect the impression of the people here on the country of streams. Not to mention that what they are talking about now is still such a "family ugliness", and they must not be publicized casually, otherwise it will really only make the country of the stream lose face!
So when facing the emotional Gao Ze and Valentine, Lin could only stay as calm as possible. He walked up to Gao Ze and whispered to him: "Let's go back today, don't make a big deal about this matter, lest our country of streams become a joke......"
"Jokes? We are already a joke, where can we lose face again? Gao Ze's voice trembled a little. He stood up suddenly, venting his inner unwillingness and remorse to the fullest: "You two of you, get out of here!" I'll never see you again! Get out of here! A bunch of useless things, out of my sight right away! ”
Lin looked at Gao Ze silently and did not move.
"What? Can't understand what I'm saying? Do you want me to chase you out with my own hands? With that, Gao Ze walked up to Lin excitedly and grabbed him by the placket of his clothes: "Whether it's you a waste or Valentine's liar, all of them will disappear from my eyes immediately!" Otherwise, I'll throw you in the pond right now and feed the fish!" ”
Then Gao Ze really pulled with Lin.
Where will Lin's small body be Gao Ze's opponent, he was really dragged closer and closer by Gao Ze.
Finally, Roland, who was watching all this from the side, felt a little overwhelmed, and he took advantage of Gao Ze's inattention. slashed the back of Gao Ze's neck with a hand knife, and directly knocked him unconscious, and then everyone finally felt a pause.
Lin glanced at Roland gratefully, calming down the excitement he had just had.
"Is there anything else I need to do?" Roland asked.
"No need, thank you, we'll take care of the rest ourselves." Lin said.
Roland nodded slightly, then turned to leave.
He knew that the incident of the false prophet this time was a very big shock to Gao Ze, and it really took some time to digest this matter within the country of Jianzhi. As for the future plans and direction of the people of the country of the stream, it is not up to him, an outsider, to interfere.
After all, they are the only ones who can untie this knot.
