Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Persistent Andreas
"Hey, Jonas, what's the matter with you, it's 9 p.m., I'm only 5 years old, and I need to sleep. Andreas was half-forced into his room by Jonas, but he didn't feel unpleasant, but he couldn't look at Jonas's silent approach, so he stabbed it.
He had already begun to suspect Jonas the moment Jonas entered Anna's room, according to his understanding, Jonas was not a person who would knock on Anna's room, nor was he a person who would force himself into the room, and there must be a reason for doing so now, Andreas exchanged opinions with Anna when Jonas was not paying attention when he was in Anna's room, and it was obvious that the two had the same idea.
And the two of them were already dissatisfied with Jonas's disagreement about his mother's whereabouts and reasons, in Andreas's opinion, his intelligence was not to the extent that he needed to hide family affairs, so for Jonas's sake, Andreas certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity to know the truth.
"Brother, there is something I need your help with, because this matter is a bit secret, so I brought you here, not to disturb your sleep. Jonas put on a smiling face and said with a smile at his brother, he understood that his brother was not ordinarily smart, if he was sloppy with him, he would definitely be exposed, it would not be good, geniuses are temperamental.
"Oh, let's talk about it tomorrow, I'm tired today, and my brain needs rest to regain the ability to think, so let's talk about your question tomorrow. Sure enough, Andreas thought in his heart, Jonas couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, his brother, he can be regarded as seeing through, his acting skills are too poor and he has to pretend to be a model of the actor.
After speaking, Andreas shook off Jonas and took his hand, wanting to grab the door, and was quickly pulled back by Jonas, Jonas looked at his brain-developed brother, and understood that if he wanted this vixen to help him, it would not work without paying a little price.
"Brother, this matter is really urgent, for your brother and I are more important than life, and now the person who can help me unlock the secret, you are the only one around, you don't help me let me find someone, I am usually so good to you, what do you ask me I said, and now I am playing with my brother, right?" "Jonas saw that it was hard and uneven, so he came soft, and he was really thick-skinned, otherwise it would be difficult to make such a contrived appearance.
"Yes, I can help you, but you have to tell me something. Looking at Jonas's angry look, Andreas began to close the net, after all, he just wanted to know what happened to Sandra, his mother and his family, not to humiliate his brother, as Jonas said, he is a good brother.
"Tell you something, it's about your mother?" Jonas was pretending to be pitiful, and when he heard that his brother had agreed to his request, he was a little at a loss for a while, but the second half of the sentence was obviously a dagger, and Jonas was not stupid, after hearing what Andreas himself told him, although he couldn't guess the specific problem, he was still sure of the general direction.
"Brother, you're still very smart. Andreas smiled, walked to the side of the bed and stretched out his arms and went down, and fell firmly on Jonas's big bed, well, much more comfortable than his bed, and a smell of flowers, it smelled very good, sure enough, the treatment of the lords is different, theirs is to bask in the sun, and Jonas's quilt is still scented and then spread on the bed, thinking of this, Andreas turned his body sideways, slightly sleepy.
Jonas looked helplessly at this clever overly old brother, walked to the place where Andreas went, sat down in front of his brother's face, and wanted to reach out and touch Andreas's head, but he still held back, this guy is not Leo, he doesn't like others to touch his body, especially his hair, he will hold a grudge for a long, long time.
"Say, what do you want to know, you ask me to answer. ”
"Is Mom dangerous, Is Dad dangerous?" Andreas's feet curled up a few times, and his whole body was on the bed, he felt that he was a little cold after asking this question, he reached out and gathered the quilt to his side, and used two small short legs to clamp the quilt that was gathered, his voice trembled slightly inadvertently, and he raised a serious little face, and asked Jonas seriously.
Looking at his younger brother's expression of wanting to know the truth and being afraid that the truth was too cruel, Jonas smiled bitterly, this child is only 5 years old after all, and he will still be afraid of the death of his biological parents.
But smart brains allow them to tell whether Jonas is lying or not, and reason will drive their sensibility to find the truth, which is why even if Jonas wants to deceive people, he must make up a perfect lie and then use advanced acting skills to deduce a drama without flaws in order to avoid the sharp eyes of these guys, and now, obviously, he can't deceive people.
"Mom is in danger, Dad is in danger, so Mom is going back. Looking at Andreas, his precocious younger brother, Jonas's words were very cold, at least for a 5-year-old child, very cruel.
Andreas nodded, did not speak, but his body shrunk into a ball, and in the background of the big summer, Andreas was turned into a cold winter.
"Is Daddy's situation bad?" Even so, Andreas's questions were still very organized, and he didn't start asking Jonas some questions he couldn't guarantee like a real child because of the cruel reality, for example, will they come back? This made Jonas appreciate his younger brother's psychological endurance, he could be so rational at this age, and when he grew up, this child would definitely not be ordinary.
"In the letter sent by my father, my father said that the Count of Il had arrived at the front, that the war was on the verge of breaking out, and that the letter had been sent 2 days earlier, and that it would take 6 days to send it from Monferrato to Piedmont, and that the war should have already begun by this time. ”
Jonas looked at Andreas like a little shrimp, the quilt between his legs had begun to wrap around his body, wrapping him, after all, he still did not say Jung's current situation directly, but told Andreas with what Jung said, he believed that his brother had the ability to interpret the meaning of this sentence.
War is a very dangerous thing, even if it is a war that is destined to win, it is not necessarily who survives, this is the horror of war, in the face of death, everyone is equal, even if it is a knight with superior force, under the siege of hundreds of people, he will still die.
And Andreas obviously understood Jonas's words, and it could be seen from his movements that the corners of the little guy's mouth were already a little drooping, which was a sign that Andreas was in a bad mood.
Jonas didn't say anything, it's a fact, it's indisputable, there's so little that you don't know, no one knows if something will disrupt everything Jonas knows now, it's like a struggle obscured by the fog of war, and only when the winner or LOSER symbol appears in front of you can you know who the ultimate big winner is.
"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?" Jonas waited for a long time, but Andreas didn't make a sound, only the heavy breathing that Jonas knew that at least his brother hadn't fallen asleep because it was too late.
"It's gone. A muffled voice came out of the quilt.
"Yes. Jonas replied, and stopped talking, and asked him to ask a sad child now what the Latin words meant, but he was a little unspeakable, and he had no tendency to abuse children.
Time quickly passed by the clock, and the two small figures were also shrunk and stretched under the flickering light and flickering of the candle, looking at Andreas, Jonas was undeniably a little distressed, this kid was obviously scared but didn't want to believe the lie, instead of looking for the truth, this is really asking for it.
"Andreas, sleep with me today. Jonas touched his brother's exposed shoulder, and said tentatively, with some caution in his words, he had never slept with this brother, but often slept with Leo, so saying this sentence really made Jonas a little embarrassed, but Andreas obviously wouldn't say this, so when he needed companionship, he wouldn't be the first to soften his attitude.
When Andreas heard what Jonas said, he stretched out his head buried in the quilt, looked at Jonas with red eyes, nodded for a while, and then climbed to the pillow, lay down, covered the quilt tightly, and said to Jonas at the end.
"Brother, don't you have a problem and want me to help?"
Good boy, he still remembers that he needs his help with a favor, but at this time Jonas is not in a hurry, he is only 7 years old, and the weakness of his physical strength makes the sleepiness come very quickly, he walked to the pillow, and got in, faced Andreas, and after saying a word, he closed his eyes and went to sleep.
"I'll talk about it tomorrow, good night. ”
A gust of wind blew through the unclosed window, blowing out the fading candles, making the only light in the room change from firelight to starlight, much darker, but the gentle breathing of the two children lying on the bed made the light in the room brighter.
