Chapter 327
Has a half-length beard, square cheeks, and wears gold-rimmed spectacles.
Wearing a black cloak, holding a wooden stick in his hand, but holding it in the middle, there is no snow on the bottom of the stick or on the cloak.
Not coming back from outside, but going out.
Meeting in the corridor, the expressions of the three people are the same.
surprised.
“Professor Phil?”
Marina recognizes each other, a new professor who has joined Imperial Family DeLorean in the past two years, and has studied at Imperial Capital. Communication, only met a few times at the school’s several receptions.
I heard that in order to do better in his studies, he lives in Imperial Family DeLorean just like some ordinary staff, even though he is a professor. His wife and daughter are no exception.
“Are you…Professor Marina?”
Obviously the other party’s memory is not bad, and he recognized the person very quickly.
The hand holding the wooden stick loosened, and the cold light between the handle and the pole was hidden.
“Yes, it’s me, Professor Phil just finished his work?”
Marina regretted saying this, because she remembered that Professor Phil was a professor of history, Even staying up late would have to be at DeLorean’s library, how could it be near the parking lot.
So…what is he doing here in the parking lot?
“Professor Phil is going out?”
The whole family lives in DeLorean, so it’s not a morning walk when you come to the parking lot.
This season, Imperial Family DeLorean at 3am isn’t a good time for a walk.
“Yes, there is an…old friend who is dying. I just called me, I have to go see him, and I just woke up at night.”
There was a brief pause between the words, and Stuart glanced at him without a trace before turning his eyes away again.
“Then go, don’t waste your time.”
Marina quickly stepped aside, Professor Phil was nodded, and then went to the side.
Wait for the sound of the car over there starting, and Marina and Stewart were already in the car.
“At this time, even if it’s going to die out, it should be accompanied by family members. How can I let my friends go there?”
Starting the car, Marina is still thinking about the chance encounter just now. It’s strange to know that according to the customs here, the period of time before death should be the time to explain last words and say goodbye to family members, but outsiders should avoid suspicion.
“It’s just an excuse.”
Stuart, who was sitting behind, was tucking the corners of his clothes, and the beard on his lower jaw became a little stiff due to the cold wind outside, so he reached out and pinched it. Pinch, casually replied.
“What?”
Turn on the lights, Marina looked up towards the rearview mirror.
“That Professor Phil, the reason he said was false, an excuse, really like what he said, an old friend is dying… there is still time to take care of the tie on his chest like this. Neat? The shirts on the inside are meticulously buttoned, and the leather shoes on the feet have been wiped on purpose. I see, I guess it’s a tryst.”
Stuart’s tryst is naturally a tryst with a lover , of course, he is not sure, this is just a joke.
Opening the scroll in his hand and savoring the lines on it carefully, even if he couldn’t read it, he still felt it was beautiful. It was much better than those deceiving spell scrolls.
“Professor Phil lives with his wife and daughter. It’s impossible to go out for a tryst at this time, right?”
Obviously, poor Marina, who has little emotional experience, believes that Stuart’s statement.
“Wife and daughter…Is his daughter Julia Potter?”
Stuart suddenly remembered that he had been with him for some time. The little girl behind Donald had chatted with her.
“How do you know, that’s a very cute little girl.”
Marina has met Julia Potter at a few cocktail parties and is more impressed than her parents even deeper.
“This little girl seems to have a good relationship with Donald, at least not a while ago. After Donald’s resignation, she came to ask me several times… It seems that I am more sure of Phil. Mr. Er must have a new love outside.”
“Why do you say that?”
“Because both of them ignore Julia, I can feel this little girl Lack of love, that’s why I care so much about Donald, who I’ve only just met.”
“Lack of love? Really…I met the Potters a few times at school, I can see they care about Julia, and one of the two always has her eyes on her to make sure she doesn’t run around, doesn’t that seem like neglect?”
Marina believed what she was saying. What I saw should not be a show by the Potters. The behavior of alternating attention cannot be achieved without long-term practice and tacit understanding.
“Marina, you have to understand, concern and care, these two words do not mean the same thing, just like when you were a child, there was a bad dog on your way to school, you always have to stare at it when you pass by, Do you want to care about it? Believe me, as a fairly competent father, I can see Julia’s alienation from her parents. She may not say it to others, but she can tell from some of her words and actions. I see.”
“Okay, I have to admit that you have a say in this regard.”
As a daughter, the father’s education and care since childhood, she is naturally the most experienced of.
The father and daughter on this side were happy, but the atmosphere in the car on the other side was cold and silent.
Of course, Phil was the only one in the car originally, and he had no one to speak to, but the stern expression on his face still showed the restlessness in his heart.
What a huge oversight tonight.
How could he have imagined that at three o’clock in the morning, it was still snowing heavily outside, and there were still people in the underground parking lot.
Fortunately, his identity is still somewhat useful. The other party is only two professors in the Academy. No matter how you think about it, at most he thinks that he has some private affairs.
Watching the snowflakes drifting in front of the headlights, grip the steering wheel with both hands.
I have persevered for so long, and must not fall short at the last minute!
After wandering around the long streets of Tallinn, he finally came to a very ordinary tavern. The car was parked two blocks away, and he came on foot.
When he reached the door, he curled his fingers, two short and three long.
“The lion.”
Some muffled voices came from the door.
“Glory!”
This is the code.
The door was opened to a gap, and he quickly squeezed his body in, keeping the wind and snow out of the door.
“Just waiting for you, let’s go.”
The person who opened the door for him slapped the snowflakes on him without any jerky movements.
“It took me a while to go around in circles, sorry.”
I didn’t tell my friends about what happened in Imperial Family DeLorean, which would only cause unnecessary worry.
“Haha, why are we talking about this, we haven’t been together for a long time, Besimo just opened a good bottle of wine, he is in a very good mood today, I’ll sell you one first Guan Zi, you’ll find out later.”
Walking on the stairs, the person in front grabbed the handrail of the stairs, turned back and said with a smile.
“Semir, you are still the same. It seems that the mayor has been working for a long time. Not only has he not changed your habit, but it has made you more like cheating.”
Phil Some helplessly shook his head, but the ease in his words could not be concealed.
That’s right, today’s party members are Behemo Edwards, the current police chief, and Semir Garcia, the current Mayor of Demingham.
On the second floor, there was only a corner wine table with candles and stacks of side dishes for drinking. There were already two people sitting on the bench beside it.
A man with half-length hair and a somewhat artistic temperament was holding Behemoth Edward’s shoulders, mumbling something non-stop, when he saw the two of them go upstairs, Deliberately beckoned.
Behemoth Edward also turned around and smiled a little more on his face, but maybe it was because he usually reserved too much time, and now his smile seems to be a little stiff.
“Haha, every time I see Besimo’s expression, I want to laugh. When I asked him to be the police chief, I just took a fancy to this. As long as he wants to, they are obviously two people who are very familiar. Others who don’t know think we have a relationship… Walsh, sit with me, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, I heard Uncle talk about your situation the other day. I had a breakthrough, so I was thinking of getting together. In the past two days, I learned that there is a bigger happy event on Beximo’s side, so I called you all here. After we came out of Imperial Capital, we didn’t do well. It’s a pity to think about it a few times.”
As the highest leader in Demingham, he became the one who was active at the wine table, and the imposing manner of the superiors has long since ceased to exist. Know where to be thrown.
Going out of this door, everyone in Demingham has each one, and I am afraid that there is not even one of them who know their true relationship.
They are classmates and like-minded confidants.
At that time, in order to study normally in Imperial Capital and not be influenced by the outside world, Semir and Borsh, who were born from nobles, used pseudonyms.
I happened to meet Beximo and Fern of commoner background, and the four of them hit it off.
Nowadays, they are striving for the same goal, supporting and motivating each other…
Even if they want to have a simple party now, they have to be so sneaky , it was the early morning again, and it was an ordinary tavern. Even the wine table had to be chosen in a remote corner, but as long as everyone was there, it was still full of joy.
“Let’s talk one by one…I know you all have good things, Behemoth comes first.”
Pour wine to the other three before finally When it was his turn, Semir was still wearing his coat, leaning against the wall of the tavern, his face flushed.
“I’ve been looking for a person for 7 years, and I finally found it!”
When I raise my hand, a glass of wine falls, which is the most joyous thing.
“The spear of Aden stabbed me, and I’m the one in the airship this time, they may have to do something to the airship.”
Wait for Semir to fill up , this time Beximo drank half a glass, which is more important.
“I made the assassination of the Spear of Adon a success, and for those people to show up, I had to ‘die’, Borsh, it’s up to you, when the time comes you may be needed Help, I can’t die too fast, I may be used in the end.”
It didn’t matter, he had already made up his mind.
The other three toasted the wine.
Silence.
