Chapter Twenty-Four: I Have Money

Oscar Sauron didn't answer Sean's question head-on, but simply threw him a blood-stained revolver and a box of bullets.

Sean took the revolver and bullet box that still smelled of blood, as if he understood something, and said, "The captain is leaving." ”

Oscar Soren's newly illusory figure paused slightly, then glanced at Sean, and disappeared completely.

Sure enough...... Sean rolled his eyes, and reluctantly held back the words he had prepared.

As he got in touch with the captain, he gradually felt the captain's style of doing things, although it was just an accident just now, but it has been clearly explained that the captain's previous "elusiveness" was not aimed at him, but by nature.

Or rather, a subconscious habit?

Bang bang bang......

Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door.

Sean was shocked, subconsciously glanced at the clock, and found that it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, and the aunt had not come back yet.

Could it be Auntie?

He instinctively wanted to open the door, but suddenly noticed the blood-stained revolver and bullet box in his hand, and he was dazed, so he hurriedly ran back to the house and put the pistol and bullet box in the drawer, and then came out again, just in time to see his aunt Arianna, who had already opened the door with the key and entered.

Arianna looked at Sean, who had just come out of the house, his clothes were a little wrinkled due to water stains, and frowned, "What are you doing here?" ”

Sean snorted and coughed lightly: "It's Inspector Oscar, he personally came to treat me for the second time, I was lying on the sofa, and my clothes were wrinkled after a long time." ”

"I see." Arianna changed her slippers and put her handbag away, then expertly picked up her apron and tied it and walked to the kitchen, "Inspector Oscar is such an understanding gentleman, well, next time I'm going to bring some gifts to visit him personally....... By the way, how was your treatment today? Are you feeling better? Besides, you must be hungry, right? Wait a minute, I'll make you your favorite mashed potato tossed beef tonight, huh...... How about a little more pepper on your favorite food? ”

"Wait, wait." When Sean heard the back and noticed that Auntie had entered the kitchen and started to move the stove, he immediately trotted over, "Auntie, I have already eaten, you don't have to do it again." ”

He knew that his aunt's school had a cafeteria, and his aunt would come back to cook for him after eating in the cafeteria.

One is because the school cafeteria is cheaper, and the other is because my aunt believes in the Great Mother God religion and does not eat meat, and he needs to grow his body.

"Have you eaten?" Arianna half-squatted and let go of her grip on the stove, got up in confusion and said, "How did you eat?" ”

Sean was afraid that his aunt would be worried, so he hurriedly said: "I bought a few pounds of bread and was going to stew some meat for myself, but Inspector Oscar came and brought delicious sandwiches, fruit salad, well, and delicious pies." ”

If the aunt knew that he only ate bread and water, she would definitely continue to make mashed potatoes and beef stew for him, although the taste in his memory was particularly attractive, but when he thought of his aunt's hard work, he only felt bitter in his heart, and he didn't want his aunt to be too tired.

Arianna opened her mouth slightly in surprise, not knowing what to say for a while, and after a while, she pressed her left hand to her chest and said with a reverent face: "May the Mother God bless him." ”

As she spoke, she seemed to think of something, took off the apron she had tied on her body, took out two more silver coins from her inner pocket and handed them to Sean:

"Well, you take the money, if I come back late these days, you can buy something delicious, huh...... Like the sandwiches, fruit salad and pies you just mentioned, oh yes, and remember to eat more meat. ”

Tears flashed in Sean's eyes, and he almost couldn't help but say: "Auntie, you can take the money, let me tell you good news, Inspector Oscar asked me to be one of them, and my weekly salary is at least three gold coins." ”

After all, he still restrained this impulse, because he knew that this sentence was even more outrageous than his admission to St. Paul's College, and his aunt would not only not be happy, but would also be worried about whether there was something wrong with his head.

He silently took the two silver coins, which were obviously very thin but extremely "heavy", looked down at the head of Augustine II on the silver coins and said, "Auntie, where did you get the money?" ”

The aunt stroked her hair lightly and said with a smile: "The library is our school library, I just have my spare time every day to help Mr. Smith organize the books, and be responsible for the hygiene of the library, Mr. Smith will give me a salary of 5 silver coins a week, deducting the cost of my meals, and the rest is still very sufficient, so you can relax and spend, well, I have money." ”

In the end, the obviously slender aunt seemed to be imitating a heroic businessman, which made Sean even more sad.

Although it is easy and simple for Auntie to say, as a traveler, he knows very well how tiring and boring it is to sort out books and clean up in the library every day, and Auntie has to complete her studies while doing such work, and even take care of herself, a "big meat eater......

Thinking about the bill that Professor Arya said before, Sean vaguely understood something, pursed his lips vigorously to prevent himself from tears, and said in a low voice: "Okay, auntie, then I will go back to my room to rest, and you will ...... Rest early. ”

He finally knew why his aunt had to stay up late every night to read, of course, interest was one of them, but the most important thing was that a lot of time in school was used to earn money to support him......

His heart trembled, and he said goodnight to his aunt, then went back to the room alone, closed the door, and lay on the bed.

At this moment, he made a decision in his heart.

......

After a while, he seemed to remember something, his face changed, and he said anxiously: "It's not good, today is Sunday, I have entered the mysterious space, if I don't enter the time......"

Although the "little white face" did not say what would happen, his intuition still told him that it was definitely not a good thing.

So, he gritted his teeth slightly, bent over and covered his stomach to open the door and walked out, just in time to see the aunt sitting on the sofa soaking her feet.

Seeing Sean's appearance, Arianna wondered, "What's wrong?" Stomach ache? ”

Sean nodded "hard", and said embarrassedly as he bent over and walked to the bathroom: "I, I've eaten too much." ”

Arianna was stunned, shook her head helplessly, and said to herself, "Hmm..... Next time, ask Intix to ask her chef how sandwiches and pies are made, and she can't let Sean always buy them outside and eat them, what if she eats them unhygienically......"

Sean finally moved into the bathroom with "difficulty", and after locking the door, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began to put water in the sink.

Until the pool was full, he made a sound that anyone could understand, pretending to be having difficulty pooping, then took a deep breath and sank his face into the pool.
