From the day he killed someone, Garen has been waiting for that person's subsequent actions. In other words, he has been wandering around his home and school. After filling out the map of the surrounding area, he began to be wary of that person.
The appearance of the owner with red eyes.
No matter what kind of leader you are, you shouldn't just give up on killing the opponent's subordinates.
drop......
The crisp ringing of the end of get out of class bell suddenly woke Garen out of his trance.
He sat in his seat, shook his head slightly, and glanced around the classroom.
Some students in the class were sitting in their seats and stretching, some got up and started wandering around, and some were yelling at others to help them buy things for them.
The whole class was noisy right after class.
"Are you going to participate in the competition? Galleon?" Kaledo, wearing a small tan suit, ran down from the seat in front and sat on the seat in front of Galleon, squeezing in a thin boy who was originally sitting there.
Squeeze. "Sorry, let me squeeze a little."
The boy mumbled and said nothing more.
Garen looked at him speechlessly.
"Is it the archery and swordsmanship competition? I have no plans to do so, but my sister is going to participate in the archery competition. I will definitely go to cheer for it. Where are Finn and Czech? What are those two guys doing?"
"I don't know. After class, those two people became mysterious and disappeared. I don't know where they went." Kaledo shrugged. Kaledo was unkempt and dressed in an eye-catching and weird way, so everyone didn't like to have contact with him.
Garen, on the other hand, has a relatively cold personality due to his poor family background. Only Caledo, who is carefree and doesn't care about anything else, can easily get along with him.
Therefore, the two of them are much closer than Finn and Czech. Plus Effie, although they are a small group of five, each of them has differences in how close they are to each other.
"Anyway, I only went to watch the archery competition." Garen said nonchalantly. In his eyes, these activities in the school now feel very distant, distant and boring. Perhaps because of killing people, these so-called competitions are in his eyes.
It's as boring as children playing house.
Caledo pouted, with an expression that showed he knew you would say that.
"It just so happens that you have time. I have something to ask you for help." He looked around and then pulled Effie over to his right who was immersed in solving problems and studying.
"What are you doing? I'm doing a question?"
"You'll find out when you come here."
The three of them got together, and Calledo began to talk about his affairs.
Because his friend is back, he plans to bring the two of them to a party.
As Gallon and Effie are his friends and buddies at school, it is certain to invite them to attend his friend's party. Finn and Czech have a time conflict because their girlfriends have to participate in Xu Xiao's competition, so
Can't go.
"The party is attended by my best friends. In fact, it is hosted by my most admired brother. You must give me this face this time! Just treat it as accompanying me."
"What do you want us to do with you at the party!?" Effie asked doubtfully.
"My family has found an engagement partner for me, and I want you to give me a reference for this party..." Caledo was a little embarrassed.
"Engagement partner..." Effie and Garen were both speechless.
"How old are you before you get engaged..." Garen's face looked strange.
"You're 16 years old. You can't get engaged at 16 years old?" Caledo said confidently.
Garen pondered for a moment.
Recently, he has been trying to ask Old Man Geguo to take out the book and show it to him again, but the old man seems to have become extremely stubborn and has not let go. It just so happens that the one-month official student subsidy in the martial arts school is about to be paid, and there is still work to be done.
An internal competition determines internal ranking.
Also, beware of the red-eyed owner looking for trouble that day. After all, if you kill the other person alone, there is no way that there will be no remorse.
"Fortunately, there was no news report at all about the person who was killed that day. After the murder on that street was handled by the police, the detectives who came found nothing... I have to say that the technology of this era is really too advanced.
I’m lagging behind. If it were the Earth, surveillance video would be able to detect my suspiciousness to a great extent.”
Garen was thankful but also lamented the chaos of this era.
"Actually, even on Earth, there are not many people who have killed people without being caught and are at large. The technology here is backward and there are countless unsolved cases. No wonder a great detective like Tali Mercury has a high status...
"
He wasn't worried about the other party finding his family. It was dark that day and he couldn't see his face clearly. No one knew he went to the martial arts gym at night, and the street was deserted. On the basis of not knowing his name and identity,
Trying to find a passerby who killed one of his men among the hundreds of thousands of people in Huaishan City is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack. Not to mention that with the investigative capabilities of this era, it is possible to find his family members.
Thinking of this, he also felt that he should relax and get together with his school friends. Otherwise, he would drive himself crazy before the other party showed up.
"The competition will start in a few days. Let's talk about it first. I only have time for the swordsmanship competition."
"It's just for those few days. Don't worry, I won't delay you from watching your sister's game." Caledo glanced at Garen sympathetically, with an expression that said, "I understand."
"That's fine with me. Just call me when you leave." Effie thought for a moment and agreed directly.
"That's good. By the way, Effie, can you lend me your physics homework for reference?"
"Why don't you look for Galleons?"
"His handwriting is too ugly."
"Go to hell! Your words are uglier than mine and you have the nerve to say it!!" Garen said angrily.
Not only Caledo, but he himself often asked Effie to borrow homework to copy. After all, he was not good at all subjects, especially foreign languages. He learned the Montian language that was so popular at the time. This language is convoluted and fragmentary.
The pronunciation is short and fast, and it also has to be combined with some weird syllables, making it difficult to remember.
After trying many times, Garen could only score around 30 points and gave up completely. Since then, he has been looking for Effie's help. As the only girl in the five-person group, and a beautiful girl, Effie can be said to be the leader of the five-person group.
She is the core driving force for learning in the middle. If you have any learning problems, you can come to her to solve them.
*****************************
Three days later....
At night, Gallon and Effie followed Caledo to a hotel in the central area of Huaishan.
"This is it." Caledo took the lead and walked in first. Behind him, Garon was wearing black plain clothes and Effie was wearing a light red dress.
A nameplate hangs above the hotel: Mira Night Star. Below the nameplate are more than a dozen bright yellow electric lights. Electric lights are not very popular in this world. Due to wiring and cost issues, generally only families with a good financial background can afford them.
Cars stop at the rectangular gate from time to time, and guests come and go, so the flow of people is not very sparse.
"My eldest brother is a very good man. I will introduce him to you when he comes soon." Caledo said with excitement, "He is a strong man who has created an industry in Donghai Province with his own strength!"
"Looking at the excitement on your face, people who don't know better would think you were going to meet your lover..." Garen walked behind speechlessly. Effie couldn't help but laugh softly on the side.
"Can't you just say a nice word?"
The three of them entered the gate and were greeted by a waiter who asked their name and then led them up to the second floor and entered a beautiful and resplendent hall.
Walking into the entrance of the small hall, Caledo kept greeting the young men and women inside, and seemed quite popular for a while.
"You go and say hello first. We can do whatever we want." Effie saw that Caledo was a little busy, but she took the initiative to speak in a considerate manner.
"Okay, then I'll come over in a while. You guys have something to drink first. You can do whatever you want on the table..." As soon as Caledo finished speaking, he was dragged away by a short-haired boy.
Garen shrugged and looked at the situation in the small hall thoughtfully. Judging from the fact that Caledo became the center of everyone's attention as soon as he entered the door, this guy's background was definitely not as simple as he said.
"Let's just walk around, this place looks pretty good."
"Um."
At this time, there was a man standing in the corner. He had a fair complexion and a well-proportioned figure. He looked vaguely like a woman. He was wearing a white slim-fitting suit and looked extremely noble and handsome. This man was chatting quietly with several boys and girls around him.
"Caledo, we haven't seen each other for so long, why don't you come over and say hello to us? Who used to follow me and yell at my brother when I was a kid?" The man saw the three people coming and stepped forward to hammer him.
Caledo punched and said with a smile.
Some of his friends around him also chuckled.
"Brother Weimar, didn't I come? I came right away as soon as I received your telegram, but I didn't dare to delay at all..." Caledo said with a bitter face.
"Okay, stop pretending, I don't know you yet! Let me introduce you." Weimar said to a few friends walking around, "Calledo, the only son of Viscount Strong. The others are all old friends.
But I still need to introduce the two new friends who came today."
Then he pointed at the blond boy and the girl with yellow eyes who came over.
"William, his father, General William, is very familiar with Uncle Strong. The other one is Jesse, who belongs to the Kaifei International Hotel Group."
When introducing Jesse, he gave Caledo an ambiguous look. The latter immediately understood that Jesse should be the engagement partner his family had reserved for him.
"Since you are Brother Weimar's friend, you are naturally my friend. If you have anything to do when you come to Huaishan, you must come to me! I will help you if you can!" Caledo patted his chest generously.
William nodded and said nothing.
"I have to rely on you to take care of me in Huaishan." Jesse pursed his lips and gave Caledo a wink.
"no problem."
"Why don't you introduce your two friends?" Jesse looked at Garen and Effie not far away.
"They are all my classmates at school. The boy with purple hair is called..." "Okay, okay, let's have something to eat first. I'll go greet my other friends first, and you guys can chat first."
Weimar interrupted him, smiled, picked up a glass of blue wine and walked towards the others.
