Volume 1: The Winter of Halmar Chapter 152: The Future
"Teaming up?"
Robert was surprised.
"Haven't you heard about the academy assessment at the end of the month?"
Andu smiled noncommittally.
"I know about the assessment, but it's the first time I've heard of teaming. ”
Robert pondered, "How did you think of coming to me?"
Andu smiled: "Anyway, there are not enough people, just together." ”
Robert didn't think much of it, and instead asked,
"What have you been busy with lately? I read what the newspaper said, you have solved several big cases!"
Andu said helplessly: "I don't want to either, it's all assigned by the bishop." ”
Robert was a little frustrated, and after a while he whispered,
"I don't know when I will become a trainee pastor, and I didn't choose ...... this time."
Listening to Walkley, Robert's work in the church seems to have many opinions...... Andu suddenly remembered some rumors he had heard when he had spoken to Walkley.
Looking at Robert's lost mood, Andu comforted,
"It's all done slowly, don't be too anxious, maybe you'll be selected tomorrow. ”
With Robert's family's circumstances, it would be almost difficult to become a full-fledged priest in the future, provided that his father supported him...... But it seems that Robert's father did not approve of his work in the church......
Knowing Du Ming's Andu, it was not easy to forcibly persuade him, so he had to find a topic casually and expose the matter.
"By the way, do you plan to continue in the church after graduation?" Robert said with a sudden curiosity.
"I haven't thought about this yet. Andu replied with a smile, not saying anything about the possibility of leaving.
After chatting for a while, Andu thought about it and had nothing else to do, so he prepared to leave.
"On the day of the assessment, see you then!"
Sent all the way out of the villa by Robert, Andu turned around and smiled.
"No problem. Robert said briskly.
Leaving the tulip community, the carriage slowly drove towards the southern district again.
He doesn't have a job today, and he's going to go to the South Side to pray, which is his job.
On the day of the assessment, what cards should I draw...... Andu thought in his heart.
"What are you doing!?"
The carriage came to a sudden halt, and George's fierce and angry questioning rang out.
What's wrong with it?
Andu stepped out of the carriage with doubts, but saw a man wrapped in a black cloak, and he couldn't see clearly.
As soon as he saw the other party's appearance, he felt a trace of vigilance in his heart, most of the people who dressed like this in the daytime had problems.
But before he could speak, the other party lifted the black cloak on his head, revealing a face with some vicissitudes.
"Justin?"
Andu was a little surprised, but as if he had guessed something.
"It's me. Justin slowly raised his head and said lightly, "I want to talk to you." ”
Andu thought for a while and said, "There is a café nearby, and it tastes good." ”
Justin nodded, indicating his attitude.
Andu didn't talk nonsense, turned around and left, and Justin followed behind without saying a word, leaving George with a dazed face, at a loss.
"You're just waiting here. ”
Andu shouted to George without looking back, and the latter breathed a sigh of relief and drove the carriage blocked in the middle of the road to the side of the road.
The melodious violin music, gently fluttering with a cheerful rhythm, conveys a happy and comfortable melody to every guest who comes here.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
In a private seat by the window, Andu ordered coffee and spoke unhurriedly.
At this point in time, there were not many customers in the café, and Andu was not worried about being overheard talking between the two.
Justin said in a hoarse voice: "Miranda's matter, you are still investigating?"
"That's right. Andu did not reserve it, and said bluntly: "I think this matter may also involve other issues." ”
Justin didn't care: "I just want to know if there is anyone else involved in her accident besides those two people." ”
Andu thought for a while before replying, "No, at least from what I know so far, there is no direct participation from others. ”
Justin nodded with satisfaction and looked out the window with empty eyes.
"Thank you. ”
Andu couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in a slightly mocking tone: "Between us, it's really strange to say thank you. ”
As if remembering something, he suddenly wondered, "What is the relationship between you and that swordsman?"
As early as when he was in the port, he felt that the relationship between the two seemed to be unusual, but there was no way to investigate, and he naturally had no scruples when he had the opportunity at this time.
"He's my brother. ”
Justin said with a pained expression: "He's dead." ”
Andu was not surprised by this result, the battle that day was too tragic, judging from the situation at that time, the opponent's body had already been seriously overdrawn, and it was indeed unlikely that he would survive afterwards.
It's just that now that he knows the relationship between the two, Andu is even more strange.
"Look at you, it doesn't seem like you're going to take revenge on me?" he looked at Justin suspiciously, his body already subconsciously leaning back in his chair.
"There's no need. Justin said in a cold tone: "He's here to save me, we're here to kill you, it's a fair thing to do, and you had a chance to kill me." ”
The situation that day was very complicated, but Justin also knew that if Andu wanted to kill him, there must be a chance, after all, he was already in a near-death state at that time, and there was no reason to let him go.
Even if he didn't do it himself, as long as Andu reported this matter to the church, he wouldn't be able to escape, but until now, the wanted warrant for the church has not been issued, which shows Andu's attitude.
The conversation between the two fell silent for a while, as a killer, Justin was not good at chatting, on the contrary, he was familiar with this strange silence, and he did not feel embarrassed at all.
"What are you going to do after that? ”
In a somewhat depressing atmosphere of silence, Andu took the initiative to speak.
"Get out of here. Justin said without hesitation: "The murderer is dead, and there is no need for me to stay here." ”
Andu remembered the scene of assassinating the prisoner in the heavy rain when he went to the execution ground that day, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
The information in his brain kept flowing, and he thought about it before he said,
"Go to the north, or to the Sea of Chia. ”
To the north, there is the Principality of the Holy Honoro, a paradise for the free and a longing home for wanderers.
The Sea of Chia, the world and paradise of pirates, is also full of opportunities and treasures.
However, both places have one thing in common, that is, the frequency of evil things is extremely low, and it will be safer for such a person with a wound in the chest, at least at this stage.
In fact, he still has a speculation and idea that he has only had in the past two days, but it can't be confirmed yet.
Justin silently raised his head, looked at Andu intently, and shook his head slightly.
"I always feel that you are a little different from ordinary people, you are like a black hole with too many secrets. ”
In the battle at the port, Justin, as a participant, was the person who felt the deepest, and he was the only participant on the scene at that time who survived, and he knew better than others the reason for that incident.
Later, he also investigated Andu's past, and the result was undoubtedly an inspirational history of the poor.
Until Miranda's incident broke out, although he left the scene that day, he did not go far, and he saw the battle very clearly at that time.
It can be said that from the perspective of the enemy, there is no second person who knows the judge in front of him better than him.
Andu listened to Justin's words and suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
"Who doesn't have a secret?"
The two men who were supposed to be rivals and mortal enemies just looked at each other and picked up the coffee they had just brought at the same time.
Weird, but extremely calm, there is no imaginary shot, assassination, or even a bit of sympathy in it.
After drinking his coffee, Justin stood up and walked outside.
"Darcy is dead, and the assassination of you should stop. ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly said: "Before he died, he had a robbed mistress, in the Swadia manor in the southern suburbs. ”
After saying these clueless words, the lone wanderer in the middle of the night walked out of the café and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
"Nanjiao?mistress?" Andu put down his coffee without a clue and repeated it softly twice.
After settling the consumption and walking out of the café, Andu saw George in the distance at a glance.
Back in the carriage, this time he didn't choose to go to church again.
"To the South End, the suburbs. ”
George answered, and set off again in the carriage.
......
The uninhabited path leads straight to the west of the city.
Justin was still wearing the black cloak, and he walked lightly.
As he walked, the man who was good at assassination suddenly stopped in place, and the long sword at his waist was already in his hand.
"Come out. ”
His tone was cold and stiff, like an ice brick in winter.
A man in a suit and leather shoes slowly walked out from the side and walked towards him with a complicated face.
"Rossetti. Justin looked at the visitor and said in a slower tone.
"You're leaving?" asked Rossetti.
"Did Darcy tell you to kill me?"
Justin didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.
Rossetti sighed softly and nodded, "He did say so, the night he died. ”
Justin sneered: "Then you should bring more people, it's not enough for you alone." ”
Rossetti hurriedly raised her hands, expressed her intentions, and said with a wry smile,
"He's all dead, only I know about it, no one wants your life. ”
The cold light in Justin's eyes did not decrease: "Then what are you doing here?" ”
Rossetti said melancholy: "His two younger brothers are busy fighting for the family property, and if I stay any longer, I am afraid that I will not live long." ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Justin and said with a sincere gaze: "I have been arranging for people to look for you everywhere, wanting to give this thing to you." ”
Justin was stunned and frowned, "What is it?"
Rossetti said abruptly: "Grover saved me, he has one thing that he has always kept with me, just for fear that one day he will die outside, and this thing will be taken by others." ”
As he spoke, he took out a cloth bag from his pocket,
"This is the card ring he prepared, originally intended to be used in the future when the three rings are used, he said, if you die outside, I will give you this card ring. ”
Justin took the bag, and vaguely felt that the contents were very light.
"I'm leaving too. Rossetti lamented: "I don't know if we will have the opportunity to meet in the future." ”
Justin put the bag in his pocket and stared straight into the distance with a deep gaze.
"Who knows what will happen in the future......"
