Chapter Eighty-Seven: Mysterious Letters

The letter was not at all out of Chino's expectations, and he couldn't help frowning and asking, "Can I take a look at this letter?" ”

Resakhar shook his head dryly: "Sorry, no. The letter was tied to an arrow and shot at my feet across a row of houses, and I didn't know who it was. And it was an anonymous letter, with a deliberately distorted handwriting. Obviously, the sender does not want his identity to be revealed, and I have burned this letter to protect his privacy. As for the content, I'd like to ask you for verification. ”

"You say."

"After the explosion, the search and rescue team dug up some survivors at that time?"

"Yes."

"The survivors quickly died of their injuries."

"Yes."

But the letter said that a small number of survivors were not fatally wounded, but died inexplicably, suddenly. What do you know about this? ”

Judging by the words of Ray Sakhar, the sender should have been someone who was involved in the rescue at the time.

But there were too many people involved in the rescue at that time, Lugo, Baixa, the Twilight City Defense, and a large number of civilian volunteers... There were thousands of people, all of whom had probably witnessed the death of a survivor and could not tell who wrote the letter.

Chino pretended to be pensive and slowly shook his head: "If I want to guess, those survivors, although they did not have fatal injuries on the surface of their bodies, were likely to inhale thick smoke after the explosion, and the injuries were in a place that we couldn't see - internal organs. So they appeared to be fine, but they died quickly. ”

"I think the same thing as you, so I didn't give this letter to Barty, otherwise it would have added a lot of trouble. Barty is an extremely old-fashioned man, you know, if he reads this letter, he will probably ask you until he peels his skin. ”

Resakhar poured a full sip of wine and said tentatively, "But what concerns me most is not this, but something else. According to the letter, those survivors were saying before they died... Death... And when they say 'Grim Reaper,' their eyes are on you. ”

Chino quipped, "What? I am now the embodiment of death walking on earth? ”

"Maybe you really are?" Resahar looked into Chino's eyes and said in a deep tone, "You may not know that some of your soldiers have secretly called you the 'Twilight Reaper'. ”

Chino slowly put down his glass, and a strange look appeared in his eyes: "Do you think I should punish these people?" ”

"Punishment? No, no, no, what a joke. Resahar patted Chino's arm and said with a smile, "You may be mistaken. In the army, if the soldiers call you the Grim Reaper, it is an affirmation and admiration for your strength. Only those warriors who lick blood at the tip of their knives and play with death in the palm of their hands are qualified to bear the name of death. ”

This is a cultural difference, and Chino didn't expect that the Grim Reaper would be an honorific title in this world.

But it's not surprising if you think about it, the Grim Reaper is one of the "Nine Gods", belongs to the orthodox belief of Dogurand, is in charge of life and death, and is destined for reincarnation, not the kind of evil thing in "The Grim Reaper is Coming".

Chino simply raised his glass and went on to say, "Then a glass to the god of death." ”

"Haha, a toast, Twilight Death!" Resakhar clinked glasses with him and drank his wine.

After Chino finished drinking, he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, you just said that the letter was tied to an arrow and shot at your feet?" ”

Resakhar didn't hesitate: "That's right, that head is really scary, just between two feet, I thought it was an enemy attack at first, and I was trying to summon the dragon out, haha." ”

Superb archery. Chino jotted down this key clue.

Across a row of houses, the arrows were tied with envelopes that would interfere with the airflow, and they could shoot accurately between the feet of Resakhar, which was not something ordinary people could do.

What can be excluded now are civilian volunteers, and civilians cannot have this kind of archery, at least elite soldiers above the rank of captain can do it.

However, among the soldiers who participated in the search and rescue at that time, there were more than 100 people above the commander level, which was still a large range, and the target was not easy to lock.

Just as Chino was thinking, Resakhar poured wine into his glass and said in a deep voice, "All right, listen. This topic is a secret between the two of us, don't discuss it anymore. Although you have been acquitted, but Erin's cruel words are going to trouble you, and you may have a hard time in the future. ”

"The Trojan family is like this, very barbaric, unreasonable, bite people and don't let go, and they call it 'blood for blood', hehe, I don't like to deal with them very much."

Chino nodded: "I'll take notice." ”

"Well, if you have any difficulties, you can write to me, and I will definitely help you if I can help." Ray Sakhal paused and changed his words, "By the way, are your parents dead?" You're the only one left in the family? ”

Chino: "Yes. ”

"Ahem... Well... Ever thought about changing your last name? There was a hint of expectation in Ray Sakhar's eyes, "My daughter is 19 years old and has been an adult for 3 years, but this child is too ambitious, and I have introduced her to many aristocratic men, but she can't look down on them." Hey, it's a headache for me as a father. ”

Chino thought to himself: Old fox, after saying good things for a long time, it turned out to be this.

Chino has no idea of getting married, let alone getting rich.

If you join the Regnome family, it will indeed be a big help, but the interpersonal relationship will be imprisoned, and the relationship between friend and foe is not under his control, but closely connected to the family.

If he was just an ordinary citizen of Dogulland, it would certainly be a godsend to join the royal family, and he must be firmly grasped.

But for a refusal who is constantly facing the invasion of reincarnation, this is obviously inappropriate, and it is better to move back and forth between various forces than to join a certain side, so as to gather more available power.

Chino chuckled and rejected him for a very old-fashioned reason: "I'm flattered. But I'm so sorry, I already have someone I like in my heart. ”

"Oh~ what a pity." Resakhar didn't force it, but asked tentatively, "Is it convenient to ask who the other party is?" I was curious about the identity of this lucky girl. ”

Chino didn't know who it was, so he pretended to be mysterious and said, "You'll know when I pursue her." ”

Lei Sahar is very generous, marrying a daughter is not benevolent, he raised his glass and said with a smile: "Then I wish you a beautiful woman as soon as possible!" ”

Chino blinked: "How do you know it must be a 'beauty'?" ”

"Poof! ... Ahem..."Resakhar choked on wine, coughed incessantly, and said with wide eyes, "You... Are you supposed to be..."

Chino smiled and clinked glasses with him: "Just kidding, of course it's a beauty." Come on, cheers~"

Ray Sahar couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You're really good at playing tricks on people..."
