Mr. Galway once left a secret about the Berkeley family. He was originally going to write it in his diary, but later he probably thought it was inappropriate and tore up the page.
As for why it was kept, maybe he forgot to throw it away, and ended up putting it with a bunch of manuscripts and books.
The notes recorded that Mr. Galway had watched the Berkeley brothers and Mrs. Shasa grow up since he was a child. Before the two families got engaged, Siqin had madly pursued Shasa, and the two even dated under the big banyan tree behind the villa.
However, I was caught by Mr. Galway.
Their parents didn't know it at the time, and Mr. Galway never mentioned it to his master.
Due to the premature death of the third brother, the Berkeley family's property will definitely be inherited by Daqi, and Shasa herself is also of the blood of a great noble. In order to jointly manage a huge asset empire, the two families entered into a marriage contract, and Shasa was married to Daqi.
Strange.
Siqin, who learned the truth, of course strongly opposed it, but at that time their father was still alive and Siqin had no say in the family. Shasa's family would only marry their daughter to the heir of the Berkeley family and would not consider side branches.<
/p>
In addition, Dachi himself does not object to marrying Shasa, so he has no objection. This is tantamount to excluding Siqin, which triggers conflicts within the family.
At that time, the only option left for Xiqin was to elope with Shasa.
However, something outrageous happened. Shasa was unwilling to elope with Xiqin, but she actually accepted the wedding.
The situation suddenly changed in an instant. Siqin became the only clown who was sentimental, and everyone was a liar who fooled him. His mentality collapsed in an instant.
According to the records of Old Galway, even after the two families got engaged, Siqin continued to harass Shasa, and he did it more and more excessively, and was eventually noticed by his father, who later locked him up tightly.
It was closed and not released until a few months after the wedding.
After being released, Siqin may have realized that he could not win over his beloved, so he gradually became withdrawn and taciturn. Sometimes he would run away from home to hang out with friends outside, and he did not come back even after his father died.
Attend a funeral.
Later, when Dutch came to power, he found Siqin and gave him a lesson. Then he slowly returned to the right track of the family business and began to help his brother handle banking business.
Since then, Xiqin's whole person seems to have changed. Although he still has a hot temper, he is no longer as reckless as he used to be.
Suddenly one day, Sitchin found Mr. Galway and said some very strange words to him.
He believed that he was guilty and had done something wrong. He could not gain peace of mind and could not sleep at night.
When Mr. Galway asked him what he had done, Sitchin was unwilling to talk more and simply mentioned: He was swayed by his own desires.
Mr. Galway suggested that he go to church to confess to the priest, and also recommended him the Bright Cathedral in Recton.
In the end, Xiqin really went, and went every week. However, the situation changed strangely.
After Shasa got engaged to Daqi, she basically ignored Xiqin and always firmly refused his harassment.
However, after Siqin went to confession, Mr. Galway was surprised to find that whether in private or on the surface, Shasa was actually willing to talk to Siqin intentionally or unintentionally, and the two of them chatted happily, as if
It goes back to the period when young love was born, and there is a hint of the rekindling of old love.
Although the two of them did not cross the line, Mr. Galway felt an incomprehensible strangeness in these changes.
He chose to write these in his notes, but felt that it was inappropriate to record the master's family behind his back, so he tore up the pages.
After reading these clues, De Gaulle patted Victor on the shoulder excitedly and vigorously: "We are only a hair away from the truth. Fortunately, Mr. Galway did not throw away this diary. Did you see it? Watson! Siqin is very
Maybe I have come into contact with some taboo power."
Victor didn't say anything. He really felt strange from Mr. Galway's record.
The strange thing lies in Shasa's change in attitude towards Siqin and Siqin's inexplicable confession.
Believers in the Realm of Bright Light will always tell the priest about the mistakes they think they have made, as if not talking will stifle them to death. Victor doesn't understand anyway.
So what is Siqin confessing?
"Although I don't understand the invisible art, but if it were me, I might try to use unnatural power to save the person I love." De Gaulle analyzed, "Mrs. Salsa may have been deceived by that guy. We have to figure it out."
I know exactly what Siqin said to the priest every week."
De Gaulle's ideas coincided with Victor's. In Old Galway's notes, Sitchin believed that the crimes he had committed were probably related to Madame Salsa.
De Gaulle decided to go to the church to investigate, and he had an idea that he could only do alone, so he decided to give Victor a day off, and they would meet again after he finished it.
"Thank you Mr. Galway for writing down the time and address where Siqin goes to confession every week. Then Watson, just wait for my good news!"
……
Taking the train back to Renekton, it was already evening. Victor said goodbye to De Gaulle and returned to Xianxiang Mansion, wanting to talk to Will about Dr. Depp's reply.
Before he reached home, a hand suddenly stretched out from a dark corner and grabbed his arm.
Victor subconsciously reached out to draw his gun, and the hand that was caught had already drawn a fire spell out of thin air.
"Shh!~! It's me!"
A familiar voice sounded, and Victor loosened his hand after recognizing the other party's identity.
He followed the other person into the alley, and under the moonlight saw Mike, whose face was full of sadness, as if he had aged ten years.
"Why are you hiding in a place like this?"
After Victor asked, Mike slumped down on the wooden box in the corner and lit a cigarette for himself.
Seeing that his fingers were trembling and he could barely hold the cigarette, Victor seemed to realize that something was wrong.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Mike handed Victor a newspaper with only half a page. The light was too dark to see the words on it, and he could only see a headline - "Fake Public Security! Gang Fighting Reappears"
The picture is of a warehouse burning with flames.
"My sister is dead..." Mike suddenly said, his voice also trembling.
Recently, because I have been helping de Gaulle, I haven’t read much of the news in the dock area. Now that I saw this report, Victor has basically guessed that this was probably done by Mike.
"I heard about her..."
Mike said again, his mood becoming more and more unstable.
Victor felt a strange power, which seemed to affect his mind and emotions, making him involuntarily empathize with Mike, and sad thoughts filled his mind.
Fortunately, his secret transmission level is high enough and his spirituality is beyond ordinary people, so he is not like Mike.
"You know... I hate gangsters very... very much!" Mike said to Victor with tears in his eyes, almost gritting his teeth, "They have brought more suffering to the already painful world. I saw it with my own eyes when I was a child.
He killed his father, blindfolded and tied those who disobeyed him to the edge of the pier, opened the gourds on them one by one, and kicked their brains into the sea together with the corpses."
The alley was filled with smoke, but Mike was still expressing his disgust.
"In the past, I hated my birth. I never liked to follow my brothers to manage the family business. I went to school and joined the army just to wash away the marks on my body. I hope that when communicating with others, I will not
Facing the other party’s fearful and strange eyes.”
"They are afraid of me and disgusted with me. They want to spit at me when the name Campino is mentioned, but they are also afraid that I can see their fear..."
"In this way, we are being squeezed out and humiliated by the real upper class, and at the same time we are oppressing and ravaging the poor who are weaker and helpless than us. We are just like the minions of the devil in hell, ugly, disgusting, and dirty..."<
/p>
The air seemed to freeze, leaving only the sound of Mike smoking.
Victor also lit a cigarette for himself, and he slowly said: "The original value of life lies in family, and only family... It is the meaning of the beginning of your life, the fetters of fate, and also a curse."
p>
Mike's hands were shaking more and more, and then he said again.
"Later, the night before I joined the Navy, my father suddenly came to talk to me. Only then did I realize that when he had nothing, he was just a dock worker with mixed wages. After he married his mother and had children, he would
Half of Zhou's income has to be given to the White Hand, and the rest cannot support us at all."
"Then he secretly started smuggling and found two partners who were also porters. The money he earned allowed us brothers to eat coarse bread every meal."
"The White Hand will not allow anyone to fish for money on their territory. After the incident was exposed, they chopped off the heads of my father's two companions and then let the corpses kneel on the dock to warn all those with evil thoughts.
workers."
"My father was forced to spit out all the money he earned, and we had to write down IOUs for the part we spent. When we grew up, we had to work for the White Hand at the dock to repay..."
"Father didn't want us to suffer such a fate, so he took on this curse, entangled the dissatisfied workers, killed those bastards, occupied the other party's territory, and fought with various gangs at the dock to snatch resources. With this
The constant deaths have accumulated the power of the Cambino family. He established his own moving company and protected us with blood and violence..."
Even though he had military experience, experienced several naval battles, and developed a strong will, Mike's eyes were filled with tears at this moment.
"Yes, even if the Cambino family is synonymous with the devil, its hands are stained with the blood of countless people, and everyone is qualified to accuse and curse it, but I am not qualified... Because of the blessing of the family, I can receive education.
, only then can you join the navy and have the life you have now..."
Mike breathed rapidly, his mood became more and more excited. He held his buried head in his hands, and the cigarette butt had been thrown into the water grate.
After a long time, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Victor.
"I came to say goodbye to you, Mr. Victor."
Say goodbye?
"Didn't you say goodbye to me already? That message."
Victor looked at each other calmly.
Mike stood up and shook out his dirty long windbreaker.
Victor discovered that he had a gun he got from somewhere in his arms.
"No...it's different this time, it's different."
Mike's voice was full of loneliness. He walked out of the dark alley, as if he was about to disappear into the silent city.
"If you have doubts, you should know where to pray..." Victor said behind Mike, who left without pausing.
