13 Mink Street

"Squeak..."

Neo pushed open the inner door, and Miye walked over with a smile on his face and asked, "Is your meeting with the dice roller over?"

"You come in first."

"OK."

Miye walked in, and the first thing he saw was Leon standing behind the door, leaning against the wall in a daze, then his eyes shifted, and he saw the head placed on the gaming table.

"this……"

"This is her suicide note." Neo handed a letter to Miye.

Miye took the letter and did not open it in a hurry, but mourned the dice roller's head with the ritual of Ganalad.

After a while, Miye took a deep breath and said, "I thought it would be a long time, but I really didn't expect everything to happen so quickly."

Leon froze for a moment, he didn't expect Miye to react like this, and it didn't seem like he made a compromise because he was afraid of being silenced by Neo, but more like he had a premonition.

"The contents of the letter should be enough for you to deal with the above." Neo said.

Miye nodded and said, "I understand."

He heard other meanings, and Neo didn't hide it, but he knew very well that it was in his best interest to declare in accordance with the normal process. Gamblers are often very concerned about the capital they have invested or lost.

Neo twisted his neck slightly, signaling Leon to go out with him.

Leon didn't resist, and walked out following Neo silently.

The priest of Ganalad did not follow, and the two of them walked from the inner street to the road as if they were taking a walk.

"Snapped!"

Neo lit himself another cigarette, turned to look at Leon, and exhaled smoke at him.

Leon didn't respond.

Neo said, "Her feet are level, not bad."

Leon swallowed, and replied bluntly: "I don't want to talk to you about this now."

"If I tell you that she used to be a person who valued her virginity more than her life, would you believe it?"

Leon looked at Neo, obviously he couldn't believe it, after all, she did such a thing directly to a strange man whom she met for the first time.

"Do you know the role of the dice roller in Ganalad?"

Leon hesitated for a moment, but asked, "What is it?"

"It's the wheels."

"wheel?"

"They promote the progress of Ganaladism, and what wears and tear is themselves. Every once in a while, the dice rollers will gamble. The object of the gamble is not real people, but... You can understand it as Mingming The incarnation of desire in it is not the god Ganalad, but it is not considered an evil god either, it is not that advanced..."

"Cthulhu..." Leon looked puzzled, obviously he couldn't get used to Neo being able to casually pull out an evil god as a metaphor.

"Hehe, don't be so surprised, you will find it very ordinary in the future."

"What?"

"You will know soon." Neo stretched his waist, "Let's go back to the previous one, every once in a while, the dice rollers will be in touch with those evil ghosts and shadows, which are intangible but real. In gambling, winning or losing depends on luck, but in gambling, as long as you play enough times, you will never beat the dealer, and the dice roller is not the dealer."

"If you win..."

"If you lose, you will be punished, because you will lose part of your chips."

"Then... what if we win?"

"The reward for winning is that there is no punishment."

"this……"

"It's unfair, isn't it?"

"unfair."

"But this is the essence of gambling. In this world, there has never been an absolutely fair gambling game, and what the dice roller wants is actually this continuous state.

In this state, they can have a special self-media, which can exert many strange effects.

even,

Divination is also possible. "

"Divination?"

"Yes, the seal you saw is just one of them, but what they are really good at is divination, and it is even no worse than those divine religions that specialize in divination."

"What chips will they lose if they lose, in order to maintain this gambling state?"

"There are various chips to lose. It can make you 'paralyzed' and lose the ability to walk even if your feet are normal; it can deprive you of your kindness, deprive you of your conservativeness, deprive you of your self-respect, and deprive you of love... …

What do you have, the more you care about something, the more Xie Ying likes to win from you.

After a long time, you are still you, but you are not you anymore. "

"so……"

"You should know what I asked her to do for me, right?"

"Help you... no, you coerce her to help you seal... seal your personality."

Leon immediately recalled the scene he encountered in the reading room of the library that day.

"Yes, that's right, but not coercion."

"She said she was scared, she didn't want to die, and you forced her to die."

"Why do you think she's telling the truth?"

"Truth?"

Neo stopped and leaned forward towards Leon.

Leon immediately retreated half a step, his neck tilted back, and now he couldn't bear the pressure from Neo at all.

"Remember, I once told you that sometimes the me who talks to you may not be the real me."

"Then you... do you know which one is the real her?"

"Yes, I knew it through correspondence. Although I am not like Karen, he seems to have the ability to capture the laws of people's hearts, but there is one thing that Karen does not possess, that is, me and her, Is a patient.

She wants to be free.

No,

Every dice roller will end up on this path, as you can see from Miye's reaction. "

"But... why are you telling me this?"

"Yeah, why should I tell you this." Neo exhaled a puff of smoke towards the front, "Probably, I thought you were Karen."

"I……"

"Okay, did you see that car, did you see Alfred sitting in the car, you go."

"I...I will report you to Minister Karen, I will definitely." Leon clenched his fists and said.

"what ever."

After you report to Karen, then the report file will be sent to me.

Hehe, report another bright remnant to another bright remnant?

Leon walked towards the car, while Neo stayed where he was with a cigarette in his mouth, then took out the letter that the woman had left for him, opened the envelope, and what was revealed was a piece of letter paper with a very short content , are the names of the two daughters and a series of identity information.

Other than that, there is no extra word.

But there is a photo that falls from the envelope and is caught by Neo during the fall.

In the photo is a young and plainly dressed woman, squatting on the ground, holding a lovely girl in each arm, very warm and harmonious.

You can't combine the woman in the photo with the woman at the gaming table earlier, they don't seem to be from the same world at all.

"Tsk..."

Neo put the envelope back in his pocket, turned into a black mist, and appeared on the roof of a nearby building.

Standing on the edge, with half of his foot hanging outside, Neo lowered his head and swayed for a while. He looked dangerous, but in fact he would never fall, because he would not die if he fell, he was a bloodthirsty strange monster.

"You are eager to escape from the depravity at all costs, alas, but I can never find the entrance to the depravity."

Neo turned his head and looked to the west, which was the direction of the cemetery where his wife was buried:

"Elisa, when will I fall, and when will I end."

"puff."

The cigarette butt was spit out and landed on the roof.

Neo opened his hands and began to deliberately walk on the railing at the very edge. As he walked, he lowered his hands, because he didn't use his hands to maintain balance at all, and he walked very steadily.

"Damn, trying to find the joy of living is really tiring."

...

"Here he is, Leon?"

Obviously, Vik didn't expect that the person who stopped and waited was actually Leon.

"He's more loyal than you." Alfred said bluntly.

"But I'm better than him."

They are all former sons, one without a teacher and one without a family, but in terms of level, Vic is much higher than Leon. If it wasn’t for Rasma’s disappearance, he is now labeled as a symbol of the old school. Encountered liquidation, under normal circumstances, his "student" is actually the successor of his teacher's faction and banner.

Besides, in terms of related abilities, he felt that Leon was completely incomparable with himself.

But loyalty...

How could I be loyal to Leonbi, and I don't have any family members to be killed and let Karen avenge myself. The only teacher who can be killed, no one knows where it is now.

This kind of thinking is darker, and it is impossible for Vic to say it, but it does not prevent him from thinking like this in his heart.

Um?

Why does he look so dazed?

"Mr. Alfred, I have something urgent to report!"

Alfred nodded, and said calmly, "Get in the car."

"I want to report to Minister Neo, who..."

"boarding."

"good."

Leon obediently opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot seat.

"Mr. Alfred, do you already know?"

Alfred didn't answer, but started the car.

"Minister Karen, do you already know?"

After calming down, Leon's thinking ability also returned. After all, it was Neo who watched him get into this car.

"Leon, do you trust your Minister Karen?"

"I believe." Even at this time, he still did not hesitate.

"Then rest quietly for a while, or enjoy the scenery on the side of the road. When I get to that place, I will give you the answer, give you... the answer."

...

"Master Karen, you are back."

Every time Karen came back by car, he had to enter through the gate and get off at the back of the castle. This was etiquette, and every time, old Anderson would greet him respectfully.

Karen is unwilling to engage in these forms, but this is the insistence of the old Anderson.

If it is said that Allen Manor placed all its bets on this young man because of his surname, that is, his grandfather's face, then the experience of witnessing Karen's rapid ascension was enough for old Anderson to include the entire manor The people who live in this world have a more thorough surrender to this "young master", "patriarch", and "uncle".

Even putting aside his surname, with his current status, trying to pinch to death the Allen Manor, which is now much better developed than before, is still as easy as pinching an ant to death.

Just find an excuse, plant a spoil at will, and the power of order can annihilate this family in an instant.

Just like the Rafael family back then, they were involved in the Qihe case and were wiped out overnight.

The influence of family background and the role of personal ability have completely different effects.

In short, old Anderson felt that every time he saw his "grandson-in-law", his waist would subconsciously bend lower.

Karen and Anderson Sr. exchanged pleasantries.

Then,

he looked up,

The window of the upstairs bedroom was opened, and a beautiful girl in a long white dress put her hands on the window sill, looking down at herself with a soft smile on her face.

When they first met in Luojia City, Eunice felt like a delicate black rose to herself;

If you follow the requirements of the blind date at home, you can hardly raise any dissatisfaction with the blind date. Of course, under normal circumstances, even if you don’t have a blind date, you can go as a young shareholder of the Karen Inmeles Funeral Society at that time. It is difficult to find such an object.

But now, after more than half a year of slumber, the girl who has awakened her family blood has lost her spiky delicacy, and has become softer and gentler, just like the warm afternoon sun that is relaxing by your side. Slowly flowing stream.

Old Anderson subconsciously wanted to reprimand his granddaughter why she didn't come down to meet Minister Karen with the family members. He thought it was very disrespectful!

Then, the old Anderson slapped himself in the heart first, is he mentally ill, to teach other young couples to respect each other, isn't it good for them!

Ophelia also got out of the car. Her appearance surprised the surrounding Allen family members, and everyone greeted Her Highness the Princess one after another.

Ophelia greeted them according to the etiquette, and showed great respect to old Anderson, which was a treatment that old Anderson had never enjoyed before.

Karen and Ophelia walked into the castle together and went upstairs. When they reached Eunice's bedroom, all the maids at the door retreated automatically.

Pushing open the door and entering, Eunice was placing snacks, turned around, first smiled at Karen and said:

"I'm home."

"Well, I'm back."

Obviously not really married yet, but the exchange of conversations seems to have been married for a long time.

Eunice took the initiative to walk to Ophelia and grabbed Ophelia's hand: "I have already made several samples, let's take a look at them tomorrow."

"I also brought my design, okay, I'll take a shower first, get a good night's sleep, and we'll have a good chat tomorrow."

There is no contradiction between taking the initiative to come over to say hello, and taking the initiative to give up the space.

Ophelia walked out.

In the bedroom, only Karen and Eunice were left.

Karen sat down on the sofa, and Eunice handed him a glass of ice water, then walked to the back of the sofa and gently pressed Karen's head with her fingers.

"This time, it seems that you didn't come back after being injured."

"I want to come back." Karen grabbed Eunice's hand.

Eunice leaned closer, wrapping her arms gently around Karen's neck, pressing her face against Karen's.

"I miss you too."

"How much do you want?"

"I don't know, because there is no reference."

"hehe."

"I heard from grandpa that you have been promoted again."

"Um."

"It must have been hard work."

"Fortunately, it's not too hard. The current conditions are much better than before, and there are many helpful helpers around me."

"It must be hard work."

Eunice didn't say the next sentence, but Karen understood, because every time she came back, she was either deeply exhausted or seriously injured.

He regarded Allen Manor as his lounge.

"I will always be here waiting for you, Karen, whenever you are tired or injured, I will always be here waiting for you."

Karen nodded. At this moment, there was no need to talk, and the two hugged each other quietly.

There is no erotic catharsis, and no ethical hustle and bustle. Eunice knows that peace is what he needs at this time, and Karen is enjoying it quietly.

After a long time, Karen opened his eyes, looked at the girl who was leaning on him supplely, and naturally reached out and gently brushed her hair away, so that her face covered by the hair was completely exposed in front of him.

I really want to say sorry, but the words of sorry have been stuck in my throat and I can't say it.

There are objective reasons in reality, such as my own identity, my grandfather's awakening, Rathma's deadline, and everything, all of which force me to do a lot of things in a short period of time.

But the real subjective reason is that when my soul met her, it had already skipped the link of young men and women's passionate love.

There is no sticking together, you and I don’t want to be apart, there is no quarreling, crying, separation and reunion, no changes and bumps in emotions and directions, even when two people are together, it seems that they have never imagined and described to the moon that they belong to the future blueprint.

Those childish, passionate, romantic, regretful, crying, laughing, shouting, etc., are just a small taste, more like a perfunctory.

It was she who wanted to perfunctory, but she was cooperating with her perfunctory.

In this relationship, I always lie down in my most comfortable way. I know very well in my heart that it is wrong to do so, but I have been deliberately ignoring it, or unwilling to change it. This is a kind of selfishness.

Correct, rational, and equal feelings should be shared and managed by both parties, rather than unilateral comfort and enjoyment.

The two gazed at each other for a while, and Eunice put her hand on Karen's chest, and said, "Karen, actually, from the first time I met you, I really liked the feeling of being with you. Although at that time, I didn’t know what liking was, it’s also possible that my definition of liking is wrong now.”

Karen was a little surprised, she actually understood her gaze and her inner thoughts.

"But what I can be sure of is that I am very comfortable with you." Eunice raised her head slightly, her chin resting on Karen's chest, and the two faced each other, "I have also fantasized about what so-called love is. It seems that it is a little different from our experience."

"It's different..."

"Karen, not all the things that are missed are a pity, because they may not exist in my life, exist in my life, if I didn't meet you, I should be very unhappy now. "

If it hadn't been for the choice of the Inmeles family, if he hadn't come to the Allen Manor, the Allen family would have been doomed to decline, and even now they are completely ruined.

And once a family with a family belief system declines, the remaining members of its clan will become very miserable. Pu'er once described... a breeding pig.

"I have known from a very early age that my marriage and my destiny are bound to my family. There are some things that I never thought I could have." Eunice pursed her lips and thought , "Also, I thought too early that those would be a little naive."

"Eunice..."

"I am very free now. Because of you, the family has turned the corner, and it is also because of you. Although I still live in the manor, I am the most unrestrained one in this manor.

I don't have to be arranged anymore, I can do what I like to do in my own time, and even grandpa doesn't make any specific demands on me.

I can read books, I can ride a horse, I can design clothes in my imagination, I could do all of these before, but I don't have this real relaxed mood, and now I have it.

Moreover, sometimes when I think of you suddenly, I will feel very happy in my heart. I look forward to your coming back next time, I look forward to meeting you, and I look forward to sticking with you like this.

Karen, I don't have the ability to help you in other ways, but every time you come back, I can feel that at this moment, you need me and I am being needed.

I am satisfied. "

Eunice took the initiative to step forward, kissed Karen lightly on the face, and then rested her side face on Karen's chest again, letting Karen's arms wrap around her shoulders.

"What I want to say is that we have never owed each other. Both of us actually enjoy this way of getting along. If one of us gets tired one day, or wants to change the way of getting along, don't bury it in the bottom of our hearts. , take the initiative to speak out, okay?"

"good."

"Um."

Karen closed his eyes again. At this moment, he completely let go of all psychological burdens.

After enjoying the quiet atmosphere for a while, Karen asked, "What costumes did you and Ophelia design?"

"Do you want to see it? I'll show it to you."

"OK."

Eunice got up from the sofa and went to her study, or her workshop. Soon, she came out with some clothes.

Very elegant clothes, from Karen's point of view, even in the past 100 years, this style of clothes will not be outdated.

She is really doing what she likes seriously, and she is really talented.

"How about it?"

"It looks great, I think it's fine."

"I can change them, you can help me take a look and give some advice, I have always been very confident in your aesthetics."

"Of course, you can always trust my aesthetics. Before I met you, I had always resisted family-arranged marriages. It was my aesthetics that made me change my opinion."

"hehe."

After spending or having enjoyed the first period of silence, the atmosphere between the two began to gradually turn to liveliness.

"That's right, I thought..."

"What did you think?"

"I thought I could see a new style of stockings, or, that style of clothing."

Eunice leaned forward, tapped Karen's lower lip with her finger, and asked, "Amused?"

"Yeah." Karen was honest.

Eunice bit her lips lightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "Yes."

"How many styles are there?"

"It depends on how many days you're going to be at home this time."

"Hehehe."

At this time, the window was swept by the headlights.

Karen stood up, walked to the window, and saw Alfred's car driving into the manor.

Eunice also put away her previous demeanor, walked over and asked, "Shall I tell the kitchen to prepare supper?"

"Well, okay, but don't worry too much."

"You can order the kitchen to prepare more high-end food. Sometimes, high-end food may not taste as good, but it will definitely take more time."

"Can."

Eunice walked out of the bedroom.

In the yard, Alfred got out of the car. He raised his head and looked towards the window. No matter where he was, the loyal Alfred could always sense the existence of his young master immediately.

Behind Alfred, stood Vic and Leon.

Alfred faced Karen's direction, knelt down on one knee, and placed his right hand on his chest, which was making a final request for instructions.

Vic followed Alfred and knelt down on one knee.

Leon stood there stupidly.

Behind the window, Karen said, "Agreed."

The voice couldn't travel so far, but Alfred's heart had already sounded.

He stood up and said, "Come with me."

Vic and Leon followed Alfred to the auditorium. Alfred took out the formation key, opened the defensive formation around the auditorium, and walked in.

Inside, there is a dark corridor.

The three of them walked one after the other.

Alfred's voice came from the front: "Before I met the young master, I was just a wild strange monster, lucky to have a pair of good eyes, and a job that can kill time.

If I hadn't met the young master, I would never have had the chance to get to know the two of you. In other words, even if I met on the road, I wouldn't dare to take a second look at you, and you wouldn't bother to take a second look at me.

But precisely because of meeting the young master,

me now,

Has a sacred mission. "

After walking to the end of the corridor, the three of them walked into a more spacious area, but because of the extremely mysterious formation arranged here, the two of them did not know what the surrounding environment was like without visibility. Sample.

Alfred stopped and turned to face them.

Vic suddenly felt a pressure, which was the pressure brought by the secret. At this time, Leon had lost the perception of his own heartbeat, and even the fact that Minister Neo was a remnant of the light was temporarily forgotten back.

"I will show you what is true greatness; I will lead you on a new and true path."

Alfred slowly raised his arms, and with his movement, layers of candles began to gradually ignite, and in the silence, it seemed that a high-pitched rhythm could be heard rising.

The huge murals on the wall, the 12 coffins around it, and the formation ripples flowing under the feet...

Everything is pushing a certain atmosphere and a certain emotion to the real peak!

"Snapped!"

Alfred snapped his fingers, the huge chandelier at the top lit up, and the solemn luster poured out directly!

The twelve coffins made a slight friction sound, as if in nothingness:

In the past, in the present, and in the future, their masters seem to have been in place, and twelve majestic and loyal gazes penetrated the barriers of fate and time, and gathered in the center.

Vic only felt that there were twelve giants standing beside him, and his body began to tremble;

Leon crossed his arms and wanted to escape, but he didn't know where to escape. He even wanted to kneel down, but he forgot the posture of kneeling.

Alfred's voice became serious and passionate at this time,

He is like the most brilliant conductor in the world, slowly raising the curtain of this musical.

"You will remember this day forever, until you die.

Because, from this moment on, your life will be completely divided into two parts.

Praise... order! "

At this time, Vic and Leon seemed like drowning people, they found a straw, and together they chanted the prayers they chanted most often on weekdays:

"Praise order!"

"Praise order!"

Alfred smiled,

Like an elder leaning over to look at the two immature children, he responded with a loving tone:

"Order, I heard."
