Chapter 048: New Year's Gift

On the first day of the new year, the sun rises three poles.

Ludon was a little tired.

By the time he got up, it was already noon.

As the director of the orphanage, Ludon gave a gift to every orphan, even Bailey, who was already an adult.

Most of the orphans' gifts are not valuable, they are books, quills, small toys and the like.

A gift to Bailey, a dark gold brooch, which Ludon says is gilded.

Hannibal, who spent the New Year together, also received a birthday present.

Ludon taught him a first aid method, which is designed for people whose airways are blocked by foreign bodies, which is easy to learn and can be rescued in the first place.

After hearing about the usefulness and efficacy of the first aid method, Hannibal's eyes lit up as a doctor, and he knew the value of this first aid method too well!

As long as this first aid method spreads, even if he does not receive the Order of Lane for it, Hannibal will not regret it.

That's the regret of the Order of Lane.

Todd also received a New Year's gift, and Ludon promised to pick an auspicious day to celebrate his wedding with his deceased wife.

After expressing his gratitude, Todd chose the anniversary date, which was the day he and his deceased wife met.

The happy hour for lunch passed quickly.

Hannibal hired a donkey cart and transported Columbus from the coma back to St. Peter's Sanatorium.

Columbus's condition is now somewhat stable and he will need to be treated in a nursing home for a while.

After lunch, Miss Millet and the Lord came to visit.

They are natives of Wudu, orthodox Wudu masters, and it stands to reason that they are no more than the Year of the Divine State.

However, according to the Code of the Fog Capital, there will be a holiday around this day, and everyone simply celebrated.

Interestingly, in the New Year of the Divine State, the fog is given three days off, while the Divine State is only closed for one day.

However, there is no overtime pay on the Wudu side, and the two sides are tied 1:1.

Naturally, Luden also prepared gifts for the two.

Miss Miller's gift was a quill with a strange bird on the top, which was beautifully made and of extraordinary quality.

As for the lord, Lutden made an apple out of silver and gave it to the lord, and the apple was bitten down.

The lord held the heavy silver apple and asked curiously,

"Why not gold?"

Ludon politely replied, "Too cheesy." ”

High EQ: too vulgar.

Low EQ: Poor.

The lord who has the ability to make money, of course, doesn't care whether the apple is gold or silver.

For the lord, he never cared if the other party had money or not, anyway, he didn't have money.

After drinking afternoon tea in the parlor, the lord got up and left, and he had a dinner party, although he invited Luden, but he was politely declined.

As a member of the Divine State, on the day of the Chinese New Year, Ludon was very busy.

After seeing off the guests, Ludon went non-stop and went to the Strange Bird Bookstore.

Luton gave the Strange Bird Bookstore a greeting card, thanking them for their help over the past year, and hoping that the Inquisition would continue to work hard to restore the glory of 400 years ago.

The old man who received the greeting card couldn't cry or laugh.

The last glory of the Inquisition directly wiped out the Republic of God, and the civilized world fell into endless wars and strife, which have not subsided to this day.

Father Phuket was in a stable mood and even wanted to have a drink to celebrate. …

In his opinion, white prostitution is Mr. Ludon's style.

What can be done without costing money, Ludon never spends money.

Ludon is like a New Year's greeting, rushing from here to there, non-stop.

Although these customs are vulgar, Ludon is not exempt from them.

By the time he returned to the Santa Fe neighborhood, it was late at night.

Sitting in the armchair of the tailor's shop, the exhausted Ludon sighed softly,

"If only Ponger were here."

In the past, Ludon threw this kind of mundane thing to Ponger, and he and Eldo went to the world.

Ahem, in fact, sometimes Al will help Ludon cope with it.

To be precise, among the three giants of the Divine State, the only lazy person is Luden.

However, Lu Deng also has something to say, those who can work harder!

Among the three of them, he is frail and sickly, and he is already tired enough on weekdays, and if he is entangled in these trivial things, he really won't have a few years to live.

Thinking of Pong, Ludon felt a little sad for no reason.

In the state of God, it took the two sides nearly ten years to forge a great country, and then planted the seeds of subversion with their own hands.

They left their best years in those years.

Even if he encounters the same scene again, it is difficult for Ludon to have the same fighting spirit.

People grow old.

Fortunately, Ludon is still young.

Ludon poured two glasses of wine, touched them lightly, and drank one of them.

The sadness didn't last long.

Although in Luden's perception, Ponger seemed to have died only last year.

However, in history, Ponger has been dead for more than four hundred years, and the grave is already lush.

If a sapling had been planted at that time, it would have grown into a tree and borne fruit...

Hiss –

Luton was a little greedy.

According to the custom, the cadres will come to the tailor's shop in turn tonight, which is not only to pay tribute, but also to express their loyalty.

Canary Polly with a watery girl is blasted out by the godfather.

The righteous godfather, righteous and stern, said,

"I'm bringing my wife!"

When the Empress didn't come back, Ludon didn't mess around.

Now that the empress is back, it's even more impossible for Ludon to mess around!

Polly looked at the beautiful embryo she had chosen, and she asked herself, no man can refuse this kind of stunner.

So, a bold idea came to Polly's heart:

Could it be that ... Are the Brando Godfathers believers in love saints?!

Polly decided to bring a little boy next year!

Putting aside Polly, who became more and more frustrated, most of the things brought by the other cadres were related to money, and the amount was about the same as Lutdon expected.

The rules of the Santa Fe neighborhood are strict, and on the basis of the Holy Law, there are extensions.

Things like petty theft were even strictly forbidden by the godfather.

The former pickpockets directly changed careers and became supernumerary members of the security team, responsible for anti-pickpocketing.

The reason why the Brando Godfather forbade stealing was simple:

If everyone comes to Santa Fe and loses their wallets, people won't want to come to Santa Fe.

In order to drive the GDP development of the Santa Fe neighborhood, the Brando godfather took great pains.

Of course, the Brando Godfather did this for a reason.

Most of the shops in the Santa Fe neighborhood have shares in the godfather, and the property is the godfather's property. …

In addition to the major changes in the pickpockets, the former thug head Haima Jonny was also evicted from the Santa Fe neighborhood.

The new thug is a guy named Stone.

In a gray area like theirs, there will never be a shortage of fierce and fierce people.

The cadres are showing their loyalty to the godfather, but Todd suddenly breaks into the tailor's shop!

He whispered a few words in the godfather's ear.

"Jack the Ripper showed up in my barbershop, the man was unconscious, and there was a note beside him..."

Before Inspector Ray fled, he once gave the portrait of Jack the Ripper to everyone, and Todd remembered it clearly and would not admit mistakes.

But...

After being missing for so long, suddenly appearing in the barbershop, the whole thing reveals a strange atmosphere.

Even Todd could see that this was a conspiracy.

It's just that he can't guess what exactly is behind the conspiracy.

After a brief explanation of the situation, Todd handed the note to the godfather.

Ludon opened the note and glanced at it, it said,

"A New Year's gift for you."

The handwriting is the empress's handwriting.

Looking at the words on the note, Luden's expression sank, not only did he not have joy, but he was a little angry.

The Empress knew that Luton never celebrated the New Year, less celebrated the holiday, and there was no such thing as a New Year's gift.

What's more, the New Year of the Divine Calendar is essentially the day when Awu 'dies'.

For Ludon, what is there to celebrate?

The handwriting on the note is a good imitation.

But alas, the person who wrote this note didn't know much about Luden.

"Send people to St. Peter's Sanatorium."

Ludon whispered,

"He knows what to do."

Todd raised his eyebrows slightly.

Although Jack the Ripper is a heinous crime, he is not guilty of this, is he?

Falling into the hands of Hannibal ...

Ahem, Todd would rather die than fall into the hands of that pervert.

Since it was Mr. Luden's orders, Todd turned and left directly, following orders.

After following Mr. Luden, Todd had always done things like this, as neatly as he had shaved.

After being disturbed, Lu Deng was also in no mood, waved his hand, and motioned for the other cadres to leave.

This note, no doubt, was the work of the Church of Knowledge.

If it were just a general provocation, Ludon would not be angry.

The other party actually deceived himself in the name of the empress!

Here at Ludon, the matter has already touched the bottom line.

As we all know, Luden's bottom line is also very flexible, and even if it touches the bottom line, there will be no serious consequences.

Now that Lutdon knows about this, the Empress will soon know about it too, and the Empress will only be angrier than Lutden!

The real reason for Luden's anger is simple:

The Church of Knowledge angered the Empress, but she asked Ludon to clean up the mess!

Lu Deng finally calmed the empress's emotions in the past two days, and he was blown up again!

This pot, Ludon doesn't carry it!

Luton began to think about what rhetoric he would have to make up or what gifts he would have to give in order to survive this catastrophe.

As for the Church of Knowledge, Lutdon didn't think much of it.

He is a law-abiding citizen.

You can't do anything that is illegal.

What's more, Lutdon didn't know who the Church of Knowledge was, and he didn't even have a target for revenge.

Ludon didn't know, the Empress knew.

Unlike the harmless Luden, the Empress has always been known for her bloody methods.

Back then, Qiyun, who had a big explosion of science and technology, played himself to a collapse, and the empress stood up to clean up the mess and monopolize power, not by relying on the Virgin Mary and mercy.

During his time in Qiyun, Ludon had legitimately hanged many people.

The blood on his hands can gather into a stream.

And the empress, as his student, is better than the blue.

The matter of revenge on the Church of Knowledge should be left to the empress.

The next day, before Luden could wake up, there was a knock on the orphanage door.

With excitement and fear, the lord hurried upstairs to share the hot breaking news with Luden!

"Mr. Luden, something is wrong!"

Even if his heart is as big as a lord, when he mentions this matter, he can't help but tremble a little,

"The former Herald of the Black Scepter was hanged outside the palace last night!"
