Chapter 61 The Heart of the Clock

When the girl heard Starmark's words, she was stunned, and her eyes showed a look of confusion, and she muttered, "Family..."

After muttering a few words, the girl looked up at Starmark, and soon, her eyes regained their brightness, and she reached out to hug Starmark's neck, and said affectionately: "Daddy, Daddy." ”

Starmark smiled helplessly, but he didn't resist, letting the little guy put his arms around his neck.

He had long known that this was a dream starmark, and in fact, he could have woken himself up, but he didn't. Perhaps because of his childhood encounters, he also longed for someone to rely on in his childhood, so when he saw this lonely little girl, he found his shadow.

Starmark picked up the little girl and took her out of the darkness, through the streets, perhaps because he knew that he was in a dream, or because the little girl touched his heart, Starmark was rare and generous, and bought a lot of food and play for the little girl. In the company of the starmark, the little girl smiled very happily, very happy, and the starmark was also full of smiles. This feeling has never been felt before, and at this time he can no longer tell whether he is accompanying her or the little girl accompanying him.

After a long time, Starmark had woken up from his dream, and he lay quietly on the bed, not getting up quickly, but recalling this strange and warm dream. I can't remember the star marks of the scene in the dream, but the appearance of the little girl is firmly imprinted in his heart. Stretching his waist and putting aside the falling star in his arms, Xingji shook his head self-deprecatingly, he didn't expect that he would have such a dream.

"Cute little girl..."Star Scar muttered to himself, he thought about it and found an adjective to describe the cuteness of the little girl, "Cute little girl like a gold coin, yes, just like a gold coin, if you dream of her again, call her a gold coin." Saying this, Starmark grinned, rolled over and got out of bed, changed into a clean set of clothes, and took the Heaven and Earth Tree Fruit to find his teacher Abner. However, he didn't notice that as he finished speaking, the falling star lying on the bed flickered again.

......

It's still the same old residential area, but this time Starmark is obviously in a much better mood, humming a little song, and his steps are relatively fast, and it won't take long to reach Abner's residence. However, at this moment, Starmark suddenly felt that something was wrong, because he was in a good mood before, so he ignored a problem, it seemed that it was too quiet here, and there was less hustle and bustle in the past.

Xingji's gaze gradually cooled, he did not continue to move forward, but stood in place, looked at the two old men playing chess on the stone table not far away, and said coldly: "The dignified Prime Minister of the country, you actually have the leisure to come here to play chess?"

One of the two old men put down the chess pieces in his hand, turned his head and smiled at the star mark: "Little friendly eyesight, worthy of being a master of Abner's master." "This old man with a rickety body, white beard and hair, and a smile looking at the star-mark is the prime minister of the dynasty, Brands. This prime minister is not good-looking, always with a kind smile, and looks no different from an ordinary old man, but he is known for his formidable iron fist! Not only that, Brands is also the teacher of the current Emperor Milley, and he is also one of the people who has the Overseer's Sword, so although the rank is the same, the real status is faintly higher than that of Shaw Sennard and others, and can be regarded as one person below ten thousand people.

Xingji had also heard some things about the old prime minister, so he didn't have much of a good impression of him, and he just sneered at the old prime minister's praise, "It's over, if it's okay, I'll go first." ”

When the old prime minister heard this, he was not angry at the disrespect of the star mark, but said with a smile: "If Xiaoyou is going to find the master, don't go over there, the master has been invited by His Majesty to drink tea." ”

Hearing the old prime minister's words, Starmark's pupils shrank suddenly, staring at the old man, and a cold aura emanated from his body and surged towards the old man. If there's anything that would make Starmark angry, it's the teachers Abner and Andre. Because, that's his reverse scale!

However, the old leader didn't care about the evil aura that emanated from the starmark, he was like a fireplace, keeping out the icy evil aura that invaded him.

Starmark glared at the old prime minister, and he restrained his imminent outburst of emotions and tried to calm himself down. The invisible aura on the old prime minister made him jealous, and more importantly, the old prime minister had already shown his bargaining chips, which he couldn't resist.

Starmark said in a deep voice, "Say, what do you want? Starmark?" For Starmark, the reason why Brandz is here is obvious, except for Starmark, Starmark can't think of any connection he has with the royal family.

The old man smiled at the star mark, he smiled very naturally, as if he was looking at a young and promising junior, but this junior didn't have a good impression of him, and all he gave back was the eyes full of anger.

Brands sighed softly, and instead of answering Starmark's question directly, he turned his head in the direction of Abner's residence.

"Master Abner is revered, his life can be described as a great man, he was the savior of Lune. The old prime minister sighed with emotion, "I also admire Master Abner, the old man is also very admired, and the young people like Krell and Andre also appreciate it very much." ”

Hearing the old prime minister's words, Star Scar's pupils shrank again, and he suddenly felt that this matter was probably more than just falling stars. This matter involves not only Abner, but also AndrΓ© and Krell. These two are veritable important members of the DPRK and China, and if they are all involved because of the falling stars, it will be a bit of a fuss.

The old prime minister turned around, moved his gaze back to the star mark, and said with a smile: "Including your child, although your identity has always been very controversial, no one can deny your excellence, if you are willing to serve the country, then there will be a place for you in the court in the future." ”

Hearing this, Xingji sneered: "Don't say these useless things, you didn't come to me to recruit An, if you have anything to say, don't ink." ”

"Hmph, the boy is a little too rude!" A cold snort sounded from behind the old prime minister, and it was another old man who had played chess with the old prime minister before. Because the old prime minister was there, this person Xingji hadn't paid attention to it before, and at this time, he snorted coldly, Xingji only felt that his head felt like he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and he was dizzy, and his body shook uncontrollably.

The old prime minister still maintained that gentle smile, and stretched out his hand to wave at the old man behind him.

"There is indeed something that needs your help, Xiaoyou. The first thing, please return the falling star, the theft of the falling star has indeed caused some negative effects on the rule of His Majesty's imperial power, of course, we also learned that the falling star was not stolen by Xiaoyou, so in order to make up for your loss, we are willing to buy it for 200,000 gold coins. ”

The old prime minister's words were somewhat unexpected by Starmark, but Starmark was also more concerned about the old prime minister's real purpose. Star Mark originally planned to sell Falling Star, but his identity will sell Falling Star, and it will be difficult to increase the price. And although the price given to him by the old prime minister is not very high, it will not be less than what he sells, which is equivalent to doing him a great favor. Don't forget that the other party is already detaining Abner and others, not to mention spending money to buy them, even if they ask for it directly, he can only give up Luoxing. He is a thief, even if he has a lot of ability, it is impossible to oppose the country, let alone go deep into the imperial city and rescue Abner and others.

After seeing the Scarlet's face soften, the old prime minister smiled, this was something he expected, he originally wanted to ease the relationship with the Scarlet and let it be used by him, and even the price of the 200,000 gold coins was obtained by him for the Scar, because it was all for the second thing!

"What else?" Starmark stared at the old prime minister and asked, he naturally understood that there was absolutely no pie in the sky, the other party had gone to great lengths to do such a play, and even risked that even Abner and the others were under house arrest, how could he just buy Falling Star with himself.

"Xiaoyou is very shrewd, and he deserves to be a proud disciple of Master Abner. After the old prime minister praised him, his smile was put away, and the whole person became much more serious: "Don't hide it from Xiaoyou, there is indeed a small matter to trouble Xiaoyou." ”

The old Prime Minister Brands continued: "I wonder if the little friend has heard the heart of the clock?"

"The heart of the clock... I'm not a watch repairer, so how do I know the heart of a watch!" Starmark glanced at the old man, looking at him with the eyes of a fool.

The old prime minister frowned slightly, although the heart of the clock is not known to everyone, but with the identity of the star, it is impossible not to know. However, he was not annoyed by this, but explained with a smile: "It's not surprising that Xiaoyou doesn't know, after all, in Lune, very few people know the heart of clocks, and even the old man only learned about it not long ago. ”

"Then I guess Alparan's bell tower, Xiaoyou must know. ”

"I don't know, I don't have any money, I can't afford to go there. Starmark threw out such a sentence tepidly.

This time, the smile on the old prime minister's face was no longer natural, and became stiff, if the heart of the clock did not know that there was still a circumstance, after all, it was indeed a state secret, but the bell tower is the landmark of Alpalan, just like the Plondra Cathedral, which has long been popularized into children's books, as long as it is a person from the country of Lune, even a three-year-old child knows. Starmark said this, completely sincerely.
