After the dinner, Aaron, who went to visit his fiancée Meisha, dragged his tired body back, but he was proud, but Aaron had the task of arranging the night watch, so he had to report to his father, or rather, to report his safety.

Aaron deliberately made a pear soup in the kitchen, because Sydney can help with hangover, and Mayor Foudy, apparently drinking to his heart's content at the dinner, and Aaron knew that at this time, his father must still be in the office on the second floor.

"Knock knock, father, I'm Aaron. ”

Aaron knocked on the door of the office.

"Come in. ”

Foudy quietly looked at the scroll on the table, what was he worried about, maybe only he knew, he was thinking about what he should do, if someone really coveted his position as mayor, and threatened him with his two children, whether he would compromise, Foday himself did not know, but he felt that if it really happened, maybe he would compromise, not that he was not responsible for Merlin Town, but that he was old, he was not only a mayor, but also a father.

"Father, this is a pear soup made in the kitchen to help sober up the wine. ”

Aaron placed the pear soup on Foday's desk.

"Sobering up?"

Foday hadn't changed significantly, except that his movements had probably slowed a little slower than usual, and the flame of thought that had burned in his eyes was now dimmed, and it was almost impossible to tell that he had just fallen into deep thought.

Foday didn't need to sober up, he had always been sober, but he still picked up the pear soup and took a sip slowly, as if it was just an organ in the body, and needed the pear soup to suspend the anesthesia of the alcohol, after taking a sip, Foday was still quietly holding the pear soup, not remembering what he drank or how effective it was.

"Are all the security measures in place?"

Foudy blinked, focusing on Aaron, his young son.

"Twelve soldiers have been arranged to guard the four parts of the house, and three witchers have volunteered to guard the safety of the house, and my room has been given to a witcher. ”

Aaron looked down at the palms that overlapped his thighs, he didn't know if his father would be satisfied with these arrangements, in order to ease his nervousness, he stared at the lines of his palms, and then supported the other with one hand.

"It's well arranged, I'm satisfied, Aaron, if you put Merlin in your hands now, will you be able to manage it. ”

Foudy's face was expressionless, he didn't move, and he said this in a light tone.

"Father, I still have a lot to learn, and Merlin Town can't do without your management. ”

Aaron's eyes flashed with a hint of heat, but he clearly understood the reality, because he may not be able to manage Merlin Town now.

"If I were forced to choose between Merlin Town and you, which side would you want me to choose?"

Fody's eyes suddenly flashed like lightning across his body, making his old face a little younger, and the scar on his forehead made his momentum even higher.

"Choose me!"

Aaron almost yelled.

"Father, as long as I am alive, even if we lose Merlin now, we will have a new Merlin Town, there will be other towns, and even another prosperous district will be established in the City of Chaos. ”

Aaron was also aware of the letters, and he could not let his father hesitate.

"Very good, worthy of my Foday's son, after these two days, you can go to Meisha's house to propose, we have to give the girl's family an explanation." ”

Hearing his son's answer, a smile appeared on Foday's face.

"Father, do you know about me and Meisha, and you don't object?"

Aaron blushed a little, and although he was aggressive in front of Mesha, he was also just a child who hadn't grown up in front of his father.

"Of course I know, my father was also young, so I have to give someone an explanation, aren't you, are you a master who eats and wipes clean?"

Foudy smiled a little teasingly, and was in a good mood, and when his son got married, maybe he would be able to let go of the mayor's burden.

"Father, don't worry, Meisha and I really love each other, I will treat her well, no, I have to tell her the good news, she has always been worried that you will not agree. ”

Aaron was a little overjoyed.

"Let's go again after these two days, you are such a big person, you don't have a calm temperament at all, go down first, have a good rest, and pay attention to safety." ”

After figuring everything out, Foday's mood also became very good.

Aaron said goodbye to his father and left the office, maybe Foday would stay in the office until dawn, but Aaron was ready to spend the night on the soft futon.

Aaron didn't have the ability to see in the dark, so he had to bring an oil lamp, and suddenly the fire in the oil lamp suddenly burst out, and Aaron's heart also burst out.

Aaron pulled out the short knife from his belt, and then stepped into the hall, and the sound of it made him clench the short knife in his hand and slowly move forward.

Except that his vision was blurred, there didn't seem to be anything wrong, but the window that shook slightly in the breeze made Aaron's back chill, could it be that the servants were so negligent that they forgot to close the window?

"Huh?"

Aaron frowned a little, the servant's mistake seemed to be too great, not only did he not close the window, but he also did not wipe the water stains on the floor.

"Ugh!"

With the help of the vision provided by the oil lamp, Aaron finally saw what the water stain on the ground was, it was undried blood, and fear firmly gripped the back of Aaron's neck.

"Come on, come on. ”

At the end of the bloodstain, Aaron finally saw the "incompetent" servant, and the blood on the ground flowed from the servant's body, and the servant fell in the shadows, torn to a pulp, almost like shredded.

It's just that Aaron's cry for help seemed to be a little late, and a black shadow penetrated Aaron's chest at lightning speed, and Aaron fell in a pool of blood, and the blood flowed to the floor like a fountain.

"Oh no, is this my blood? Meisha, I think, I think, I think I can't keep my promise. ”

The oil lamp flickered and went out, and a wave of sleepiness hit Aaron, and Aaron's consciousness fell into darkness forever.

At the same time, Foday, who heard the shout, quickly took out a crystal nuclear weapon from the drawer and prepared to rush out of the office.

"Tick tick. ”

There seemed to be some kind of liquid, dripping from the ceiling of the office onto Foday's desk, and when Foday looked up, he saw only a huge shadow pounce on him, and then the monster in the shadow grabbed Mayor Foday, smashed directly into the wall on the second floor, and disappeared into the night at lightning speed.
