Chapter Thirty-Six: The Skinners Family
The moon is sparse, and Roger strolls alone on the tree-lined path in front of the dormitory.
The final martial arts exam is also over, except for a few students who have postponed the exam due to the Alice incident, there are no more students left in the crape myrtle academy, and the entire campus seems empty.
"Yo, Roger",
He leaned on the tree alone and looked at the starry sky overhead, and there was a dense grass in front of him, although there were street lamps on the path, but if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't notice him sitting there.
Gluttony loves the dark, just like the puppeteer, except that the puppeteer is just as receptive to light.
Although Tsukiki Hanama is simply interested in himself and does not know his profession, in Roger's eyes, gluttony and puppeteer are professions that walk on two extremes.
Gluttony devours life and transforms it into its own energy, which is not tolerated by the world, and the Holy See does not explicitly prohibit it only because the number of gluttonous eaters is too scarce, and they are secretive and can transform the corpses that have just died, so there has been no incident similar to "Death Town".
Although the Holy See did not explicitly prohibit it, the Knights Templar, who were extremely powerful, did not mind burying such a demonic profession.
Puppeteers are the other extreme, and their lifelong goal is to create life, although no puppeteer has done so far.
No, that man did, he created the Joker, but is that a full life?
It seems that the puppeteer and the gluttony are destined to be hostile, but now Roger has no intention of finding fault with him.
"You won't be in crape myrtle for long," Roger said.
Hanama Tsukiki put his hands behind his head and smiled elegantly: "Roger, it's rude to say this",
Roger said: "You have reached an agreement with the principal, although I don't know the specific content of the agreement, but two things are certain, one, you can't eat people, including human corpses, most animals can't eat, and the animals that can eat should be as secretive as possible, two, in exchange, the headmaster will help you hide your identity as a glutton, and give you a crape myrtle that you don't have to worry about the Holy See and the Knights Templar",
Adams hadn't told him anything about the agreement, but Roger was able to analyze so much information from just a few words.
Such is his terrifying ability to perceive and analyze.
"You know better than I what kind of profession a gluttoner is, will you stay in a place where you are so demanding on eating?", Roger said, Hanama Tsuki's eyes, those beautiful pupils concealed a fiery craving, a thirst for food, a thirst for power.
Roger has always believed that even a well-educated person can't resist a heartfelt **.
Hanama Tsukiki's eyes showed brilliance, Roger had given him too many surprises, smart, cautious, full and special. In his eyes, Roger was so special, attractive all over his body.
"Ah, Roger, you're astonishingly smart",
Roger said: "I think instead of letting you live up to the principal's expectations of you, it is better for you to leave early",
Is it expected that a gluttonous person will make a healthy transition to another profession? Roger respects Principal Adams, but has no hope for such an expectation.
Roger didn't talk much to Tsukiki Hanama, and he didn't have the slightest interest in the glutton, so he only returned to the dormitory with a few words.
Now it is necessary to plan a plan to rescue Alice, a plan that will not affect the crape myrtle and save Alice.
The administrative power of Srock Town is in the hands of the Bullock family, and the reason why the Bullock family can firmly grasp the administrative power here is only because of two words, "justice", it is the people of the Tully family who are hurt, and it is within the jurisdiction of the Bullock family, so Alice should be handed over to the Tully family, and the decision of the Bullock family is irrevocable, so Roger decided to start from the Tully family.
Before that, he needed to meet the people who had come to negotiate with the Tullys, and in order to meet the Tullys' negotiators at the first time, Roger specially stuffed five gold coins to Aunt Woolling, who had become leisurely because the students had returned home, for her to keep an eye on.
Old Woolin did a surprisingly good job, and every day she would report to Roger about the suspicious characters who came in and out of crape myrtle, and Roger was not too troublesome, ready to listen to her nagging at any time.
"Miss Lolita must be missing me now, and the Queen,
"Little Roger, the person you are looking for has appeared, and the people of the Tully family have come",
On this day, Roger was sitting by the window thinking about Lolita and Olis Old Woolling's excited voice suddenly came, the sixty-year-old Woolin was in good health and walking like a fly, she pushed Roger open the door, and the wrinkles on her face were twisted together with excitement.
Roger stood up and smiled, "Yes, thank you for the notice", he took out two more gold coins from his pocket and stuffed them to old Wu Lin.
"Auntie, go buy some delicious food for your grandson," he walked out of the dormitory quickly.
The Tully family came sooner than expected, and today was only the fourth day after Alice's bloody affair.
A column of people and horses at the entrance of the crape myrtle academy seems to be a group of stragglers staggering bravely, led by two men on horseback, the young man on the left faces gently, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze, the man on the right is wearing an officer's uniform, with a long sword hanging from his waist, a short knife and a horsewhip, with a beard on his face, a strong physique, he looks very strong on a tall horse.
The group of servants who followed them were a little scattered, and a few of them were still chattering around the silver demon.
"Crape Myrtle Academy, phew", the man with the beard spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on the door of Crape Myrtle, and pressed the short knife on his waist and said: "Hell, as long as the old man leaves a word, Lao Tzu will lead people to level this broken place",
The dagger he used to peel the skin, and so far more than thirty prisoners had died under it, and their deaths were extremely miserable.
The young man beside him showed a displeased look: "Dorog, we are here to negotiate with Crape Myrtle, not to set foot in this school",
As an excellent civil official, what he despised the most was a reckless military attache like Dorog who only knew how to fight, kill, and kill.
Dorog snorted, "Isn't that a matter of time? Although that boy from Ou Ying is not well received at home, the people of the Tully family cannot be folded in the hands of outsiders, and how many of the people of the Tully family are still alive?"
The Tully family was also known for their vindictiveness.
"Damn, why hasn't the person who greeted us come yet, is this dog bastard Adams a heart?", Dorog had a short temper and waited less than ten minutes before he started scolding his mother.
In fact, Adams didn't send anyone to meet them, it was just their wishful thinking, but a person quickly walked out of the crape myrtle.
Dorog spat out another mouthful of thick phlegm and scolded and patted his horse as he walked over.
Roger walked to Dorog's tall horse, bowed and was about to say something, but Dorog pulled out the whip from his waist and hit him on the head.
"You're fucking it, you sent such a little bastard for a long time, Adams of the dog's day",
A fierce whip wind blows in the face.
