Chapter 31: Before the Storm
The atmosphere of the Qiao Sen family has become very gloomy since the last defeat, they are the emerging family power in the 17th district, relying on the platform of competition to make a windfall, and their strength and financial resources can match the other three, but this time the alliance with the Chenova family actually failed, not only lost the opportunity to swallow a large profit of the Sumerian family, but also lost a large amount of gold coins in the competition! Of the more than 70 billion gold coins, 45 billion are the funds of the Qiao Sen family, and they have encountered such a heavy blow as a family that made a fortune in competition! This account will not be counted like this!
In the south of District 17, the Chenova family, they seem to be calmer, even then they have lost more than 10 billion gold coins, they will not count it like this, they will look for the Sumerians to get back. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Opposite to the info is a Bishop wearing a turquoise robe and a one-star crown on his head, Lord Veron, who listens carefully to the plans of the Chenova family, Bishop Viron is the head of the 17th district, and was invited by the Chenova family today to need some help from him!
Bishop Veron has been here for six years and has had very little contact with the upper echelons of the Sumerian family. The young greencoat, the highest clergy of the 17th arrondissement, was only 31 years old. One of the reasons he came here was to get something from the Sumerians, who were alienated from the competition and deliberately avoided contact with the Church, which only increased his trust in this secret legend.
He himself did not have the opportunity to contact this secret, and now the two major families plan to eradicate the Sumerian family, and Wei Lun himself only needs to contribute a little force, if the matter is really successful, the area of the Sumerian family mansion will belong to him, and he can inquire how he wants to inquire when the time comes. The disappearance of a family in just one place is not a problem for the bishop in charge of the entire 17th district, let alone the one he wants to know very much, but Wei Lun's face and kind heart have already had an insidious plan. He just smiled and responded to the Chernovas, indicating that he was willing to help Jossen and the Chernovas.
In the center of the Sumerian family's mansion, Keynes was unsettled, since the end of the last competition, the Jossen family has not taken any action, this is not their style, the power that relied on the competition to start is revenge and insatiable! Silence can only mean that a more violent storm will be ushered in, but what the other party will do Keynes can't imagine at all, so he can only protect the safety of the family members as much as possible.
In fact, after the end of the competition, Keynes immediately increased his manpower, strengthened his vigilance, and defended himself against the people of the Jossen family to retaliate, but it has been two weeks, and there has been no movement! What are they going to do? The other party's delay in making a move makes Keynes very concerned.
Keynes wandered through the empty room, turning his head to look at a modest picture frame on a huge oak table, and he looked at the person in the picture with fascination. It was a lady, she was the lady of Beloka's grandmother, Cairns, and her age did not hide her beauty, she had been in that position quietly for 16 years, Beloka was very much like her grandmother.
The corners of Keynes's eyes moistened, and he silently thought in his heart: "You, you left in such a hurry, you threw everything to me, for your words, I persisted for 16 years, what you said was always right, and I still chose to believe you in the end, without any reason! Just like you chose to believe me when you were young." But I couldn't protect you. ”
At this time, Cassius came in, and it was Keynes who called him over, and he was really not at ease about the calm of these few days, so he still had to settle down. Hearing that he was coming, Keynes calmed down and told him about his recent worries. Cassius didn't have any special feelings, after all, he hadn't been in this world for a long time, where would he understand so many twists and turns.
Keynes sat down and looked at Cassius with a determined look in his eyes, leaving Cassius a little stunned, not knowing what was going to happen. He suddenly said, "Do you believe me, young man?"
"Oh, well, of course, what else would I be doing here?" Cassius was a little confused.
"Actually, I don't believe you!" Keynes replied earnestly, and Cassius was stunned. The atmosphere was very awkward at this time, and he didn't know what the old man wanted to say.
"I believe in my wife, she chose you, she chose you for the Sumerians!" Keynes added, looking at the picture frame in the corner of the table.
"She has the power of prophecy, and it is with this that the entire family has gained a foothold in District 17. Hearing this, Cassius suddenly understood something, the encounter with the old man, and the old man's unconditional trust in him, all stemmed from his trust in his wife!
Keynes suddenly smiled and said, "I can trust you from now on, because my late wife's prophecy is only until the last time! I will inherit her trust in you. ”
Cassius understood the old man's feelings, if he himself was to hire a bodyguard for his family, how could he go to a street bar and find a villain to come back and trust him in every way?
"You just need to promise me that no matter what, you will be on Beloka's side! Protect her forever, as long as the Sumerian family is not destroyed, you will be her shield!" Keynes stared at Cassius, and at this time, Cassius felt that his soul was firmly stared at and could not move, and the old man's firm will bloomed in this sentence!
"No problem!" Cassius felt himself being suppressed by a powerful force, and his breathing became difficult, but he replied to Keynes in a pretended lightheartedness.
Keynes then regained his usual sense of kindness, which relieved Cassius, but he didn't know why the old man suddenly said something, but he could tell from the other man's look that he was very uneasy. After going out, Cassius unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat behind him.
The old man is not a person who knows magic, he has a condescending momentum, which makes Cassius feel that sense of oppression unconsciously, his consciousness does not react, but his body has already felt this pressure, this ability comes from human instinct, and it cannot be obtained by cultivation or drug abuse.
Between the old man's house and Beloka's, there seemed to be a lot of more bodyguards and guards, and it seemed that the old man had been guarding against something. This made Cassius a little serious.
The clouds in the sky were red and orange, like blood splattering, this feeling was very uncomfortable, there were no insects or birds chirping in the air, every bodyguard was very serious, Vince, David, Billy were all sent around the young lady's house. Cassius hurried into the room, Beloka was sitting on the couch, startled when she saw Cassius come in, she was shaking her mind just now, and she didn't notice anyone coming in.
"Miss, why don't the Sumerians hire more competitors?" asked Cassius when he saw Beloka.
"Bloodthirsty and warlike people can't be trusted! Villains can't be trusted! That's what Grandpa used to say." Beloka replied dryly, and then glanced at Cassius, somewhat apologetic.
Cassius didn't care about that, and continued to ask, "Aren't there any clean people among the competitors?
"I've chosen a lot, but ...... It's all gone. Beloka didn't feel lost or sad, and those people didn't seem to have much to do with her.
Cassius recalls that every decision made by the old man was so neat, whether it was to hire him, or let him take Beloka out to play, or let him participate in the competition...... In fact, the old men are burdened with a huge psychological burden, which is contrary to the real Keynes. In the end, he chose to believe it once, subverting his usual position, and it also meant that he had put everything behind? Why would he do so to a strange villain?
At night, there was no sound, no insects, no birds, and you could hear the footsteps of patrolling back and forth on the street outside the door! Beloka's room was quiet, the sky was dark and the wind was high.
