Chapter 1 Determination
Spring. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Spring is a pleasant season for the South. The short winter passed in the blink of an eye, and spring arrived, the snow and ice melted, and the bright sunshine sprinkled over Phoenix.
Caesar - oh no, now Kaka, the doorman of Phoenix Academy - was standing at the door of the largest hospital in Phoenix with a fruit basket and muttered in a low voice, "I heard that guy was transferred? ”
Winter has passed, spring has arrived, and the injuries of a guy who was inexplicably attacked and seriously injured after that important banquet is only now beginning to improve.
Caesar had come to visit Hughes.
All the way to the inpatient department, the clean and plain environment made Caesar feel very comfortable, the atmosphere here is very peaceful, and there is no such smell as a hospital.
Occasionally, when he met some patients in the aisle, he would nod lightly to Caesar.
"Nice place. Caesar couldn't help but think.
Compared with the exclusive hospital of the military department, the level of medical care here is not necessarily higher, but it is obviously more "commercial". Patients here are not only treated but also serviced.
Caesar vaguely remembered that the boss behind this hospital seemed to be Earth Street. In fact, behind all the industries of the empire, more or less, there is the shadow of Earth Street.
When I came to the door of Hughes's ward, before I entered, I heard a female voice saying: "Teacher Philo, you can recuperate here, if you have any needs, just tell the staff directly, I will say hello in advance." ”
Caesar was stunned, thought about it, and knocked on the door.
When the door opened, he saw Hughes—oh no, now Philo—sitting in a hospital bed, Joon's face pale and haggard, but even so, he was calm.
It's all a sick number, can you not always put on a paralyzed face? Caesar vomited in his heart.
Then he turned his gaze slightly and looked at the person who was sitting on the edge of the bed, he was very familiar with, Xu Wenjing from Earth Street.
"Hello, Miss Wen Jing. Caesar smiled with a smile that belonged to the doorman Kaka, "It's a coincidence that you're also coming to see Mr. Philo." ”
"Oh, oh, it's quite a coincidence...... Wen Jing stood up, the eldest lady of Earth Street has always been calm and steady, but at this moment, it is difficult to hide the embarrassment in the depths of her eyes.
She thought about it, didn't seem to know what to say, whispered a few more words to tell Philo to recuperate, nodded to Kaka, and quickly left the ward.
The door closed slightly, and the sound of the girl's footsteps faded away.
Caesar placed the fruit basket beside the bed and looked Philo up and down with a smile in his eyes.
"I said, why did you suddenly transfer to the hospital, it turned out that someone was worried about it. Caesar said with emotion, "Wen Jing probably wouldn't have thought that you were the blood ghost Hughes she had known for a long time in Aoki City, right?"
"No, it won't. Hughes said calmly, "My current personality and style are part of the identity protection plan, and Philo and Hughes are two different people. ”
"Hey, that doesn't seem to be the point I'm going to talk about. Even Caesar couldn't help but feel speechless at this guy's low emotional intelligence.
The point is not that Hughes and Philo are different, okay? The point is that Wen Jing, the eldest lady of Earth Street, specially arranged you to the hospital opened by her family!
"Then what's your point?" Hughes frowned at Caesar, nodded after a moment, "I see, the military department agrees with this, and it is easy to arouse suspicion if an academy teacher always stays in the military hospital." So, you don't have to worry. ”
Caesar: "......"
Then there was no word.
In fact, it wasn't the first time Caesar had visited since Hughes was wounded, but every time the two of them were in the same room, there was silence.
It was a strange feeling, Caesar didn't think there was anything special to say, and neither of them seemed to feel anything wrong with not talking.
Caesar has been used to being alone since he was a child, so except for a few people such as Nono and Pit Daddy, there are not many words at other times.
As for Hughes, he's a strange pervert, so he can't be guessed by common sense.
Caesar looked out the window with some absent-mindedness. Hughes picked up a book from the side of the bed and began to read it, turning the pages while calmly saying: "I heard Xu Wenjing say that your friend Xu Keng's father is doing well in Earth Street, and his mother seems to be a powerful person, and now he has firmly grasped the power of the family." ”
"Oh. Caesar nodded, "That's a good thing." ”
"Have you ever seen the cheating father's mother, the woman named Elaine?" Hughes asked casually, not knowing that Caesar had actually participated in the whole banquet that day as Master Yi.
Yes, Hughes knew very well that Caesar was Yi and was the only one other than Nono who knew this, but he never broke it.
Caesar actually has three identities now, Caesar, Kaka, and Yi.
Hughes knew all of his triple identity.
Nuno knows the twofold and doesn't know the identity of Kaka.
Long Qiqi didn't know Yi's identity.
Caesar thought for a moment and said, "I met my pit father and his mother on the street that day, and I felt surprisingly young. ”
At this time, Caesar pulled his gaze back into the room from the window, looked at Hughes, and said in a serious tone: "Hughes, I have something I want to ask you. ”
"You want to ask me how I got hurt that day?"
"Yes. You were in such a bad state before, and I never asked. You went to the masked banquet on Earth Street that day, why were you attacked inexplicably when you came back?"
Faced with this question, Hughes was silent for a while, his eyes gradually revealing a trace of dazedness, and he said softly: "I don't know. ”
"What do you mean you don't know?" Caesar frowned, "With your skills, you always have some ability to resist when someone is attacked, right?" Is the attacker male or female, fat or thin, wind and thunder mage or battle mage?
Hughes smiled wryly and said, "These...... I don't really know anything yet. ”
Caesar was stunned.
His brow furrowed, and he thought of a very important question: to be able to inflict such a heavy blow on Hughes without him noticing anything, the strength of the attacker was probably very, very terrifying. You must know that even if someone at the level of an imperial school officer makes a move, Hughes can at least judge some basic information about the opponent.
The question is, if the attacker was so strong, why did Hughes survive?
He couldn't have any chance of survival.
"Okay, I know what you're thinking, it's strange on the military side. Hughes understood Caesar's thoughts, waved his hand, and said, "Let's not talk about me, what about you, you've been in a lot of trouble lately." ”
At the banquet in winter, Long Jun took his daughter and entered the banquet at the most chaotic moment, calmed the situation, and directly finalized the heir of Earth Street on behalf of the military department, which does not allow any meaning.
On the military side, the military has always been wary of the three powerful behemoths of the Twelve Round Table, Earth Street, and the Forest Clan.
Therefore, when Wen Yuan's vein revealed an obvious desire to gain more autonomy and get rid of the control of the military department to a certain extent, the three generals naturally could not allow it.
But after all, the strength of the military department does not have absolute dominance, and the feelings of these three parties can be ignored.
So after a stick, it seems that you want to stuff a carrot to appease and appease.
This is actually a very simple trick, everyone knows it, and one of the means used by the military department to appease the tripartite forces is Long Qiqi. At a very young age, she made a marriage with the future heir of the Twelve Round Table family.
In the eyes of others, this is General Long's foresight and the spirit of willing sacrifice for the empire.
Even the most beloved granddaughter was so easily married.
But Long Qiqi herself doesn't think so.
She was ashamed, unwilling, powerless, and extremely angry. Anger has been accumulating until a certain opportunity has reached its peak.
That is the time when the last heir of the Twelve Round Table family died in the dragon road, that person was Long Qiqi's original fiancé, who was killed in the dragon road, and the name of the person who did it, Long Qiqi remembers it very well, is a guy named Caesar.
When she heard the news, Long Qiqi even felt grateful to Caesar, whom she had never met and had never heard of, and she thought that she could escape the tragic fate of not being able to even control her own marriage.
But who would have thought that Grandpa and Father would still be willing to marry themselves to the next heir of the Twelve Round Tables.
Long Qiqi felt that her self-esteem had been trampled to pieces.
If the Twelve Round Table changes one heir after another, then will I Long Qiqi have to change one fiancé after another? If I get married in the future, and the heir who doesn't know how many heirs are dies again, will I still marry the next one?!!?!
When anger accumulates to the top, it turns into crazy action.
So at that banquet, Long Qiqi announced the unwarranted news that made both the military department and the Twelve Round Table stunned and angry.
- I'm already Caesar's man.
The one who killed my first fiancé, the one I liked was him, I want to marry, and I want to marry him!
That's what Hughes said about the trouble.
Unexpectedly, Caesar just shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "I'm completely lying down the gun, okay, lying down the gun." What do you mean it's already mine? I haven't even touched that Long Qiqi's hand!"
"You've touched it. Hughes said earnestly.
"What?"
"That time, as Kaka, you touched her hand when you were fighting her in my class. ”
“......”
"Okay no kidding, if you're serious, what are you going to do?" Hughes looked at Caesar, "It's said that the Twelve Round Table family has already set their minds on you to kill you no matter what. You killed their last heir and gave the current patriarch a sky-high green hat, which is even more uncomfortable for the big family than killing them. This is a shame that must be washed away with blood. ”
Hughes himself had been in the extended family, though it no longer existed.
So what he said was not sensational.
Even with the protection of the military headquarters, the Twelve Round Table will find an opportunity to kill Caesar, just as even with the protection of the military headquarters, the battle mages of the northern kingdom will find an opportunity to kill him.
As long as no evidence is left.
So, really, it's a **annoyance.
When Caesar heard this, he suddenly smiled: "I see, this is indeed a trouble, I will pay attention, and you don't need to remind me again and again." ”
The casual tone made Hughes frown, and he wanted to say something more, but Caesar waved his hand and said, "I'm here to say goodbye today." ”
"What?" Hughes was stunned.
"I'm leaving, probably just recently. Caesar said.
"Let's go?" Hughes said incomprehensibly, "Have you forgotten that we're still in the Identity Protection Program, where are you going, where can you go?"
A faint smile of anticipation appeared on Caesar's face, and he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Hengduan Mountains." ”
After a pause, he added, "I didn't tell you, I...... It's already level ten. ”
Hughes froze, looked at Caesar, and was speechless for a long time.
