Chapter 2538 Separation of paths and deviation (31)
At the same time (?), around 7:50 in the morning, in a dilapidated apartment in the old town of Edinburgh.
"Beep---beep---beep---, beep---beep---beep---" A series of alarm clocks rang, waking up Saab.
He opened his eyes and looked at the alarm clock beside his bed. His first thought was that he was going to be late, and he almost jumped out of bed. However, when he thought about it again, he remembered that his boss Daniel had actually given him a
He had a whole week off, and he didn't have to report to the Knights today. So he didn't have to worry about getting up at this hour, and there was no need to worry about being late.
"Well...what am I doing..." The bunny boy turned around from the bed and covered his face. He even felt ashamed of himself who was always startled. He obviously
He should be a soldier, a knight in the Knights. But since when did he turn into such a "social animal", getting up on time and going to work on time every day, working in a "company" called the Knights of Great Britain?
Doing some mundane and menial work honestly, just living every day without hope or dream?
Is it really okay to continue like this? Sometimes he couldn't help but think so. But what choice did he have? Just "living" had exhausted all his energy, and he couldn't even live well. He was plagued by illness and couldn't move.
Surgical treatment is unlikely to last long, and the cost of that operation is exorbitantly high.
That's right, his boss, Silver Knight Daniel, said that he had helped him obtain funding for the operation from the Knights, and that he would be able to have the operation soon, and then he would finally have a chance to survive.
Then what?
Just survive. Still stay in the Knights, with no hope of promotion and no considerable salary, just living in this ordinary and boring position for the rest of your life?
If you survive, you just survive. You still have no dreams and no hope.
Sabo buried his head under the pillow and meditated for a long time. He even had the urge not to get up from the bed. It would be great if all this was a dream. If only he had never left the Dark Area from the beginning, even if he lived in poverty
, how nice it would be to still live with my mother in the territory of the orcs.
Is it really the wrong choice to bring his mother to Great Britain in the hope of getting a chance to treat her? As a result, his mother is no longer here, and he is stuck in this hellish place where he cannot achieve anything, and suffers from all kinds of human beings.
Discrimination, no dreams and no hope.
Even the place to go back to was lost.
Damn...
Knock knock knock. The gray rabbit young man's meditation was interrupted by a knock on the door outside.
"Are you awake, Brother Sabo?" The voice of Mason, the mysterious boy temporarily staying at his house, came from outside the door: "I made breakfast. If you wake up, do you want to come and eat?"
"...I won't eat." Sabo whispered: "It is very likely that my operation will be arranged within today. Maybe they will send me to the operating table tonight. This kind of surgery
Before major surgery, it is said that you need to fast."
"Oh, I understand." Mason replied: "In that case... let me make you some drinks. You should be able to drink something, right?"
"...Then it's hard work." The young gray rabbit man replied. He was indeed a little thirsty. And just thinking about not being able to eat from now on until the operation started made him feel a little scary.
That means he has to be hungry all day...is he really not going to faint from hunger?
Sabo lazily got up from the bed, went to freshen up, and then walked into the living room. Just when he sat down and planned to drink a glass of milk placed on the table, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and half a second later there was a leisurely sound.
knocking on the door.
Mason, who was busy in the kitchen, turned and exchanged glances with Sabo.
"I'll answer the door." Knowing that it was not convenient for outsiders to see Mason, Sabo stood up and said.
"Here we come." He walked towards the door and glanced through the door. The person outside the door was indeed Daniel.
"So early...?" he asked as he opened the door.
"Well, I need you to sign some documents, and then the procedure will be completed." The Silver Knight boy opened the door unceremoniously and walked into Sabo's house, sat down, and put the backpack he was carrying next to him.
On the chair. The backpack was bulging, and there seemed to be a lot of belongings in it.
"Um...what does this mean?" Sabo took the document handed over by Daniel and at the same time glanced at Daniel's backpack uneasily. Something seemed to pop out of the corner of Daniel's backpack. It looked like a
Sleeping bag for camping only.
"As I said, I will move into your house starting from today." Daniel said, "I originally planned to build a bed here, so of course I brought a sleeping bag."
"I understand the truth, but are you moving everything here at once..." Sabo still couldn't accept it. After all, he and Daniel hadn't known each other for long. Even though Daniel was in the Knights, he
It still feels strange for my immediate superior here to suddenly let such a stranger live in the same room with him.
But then again, why didn't he have this strange feeling when he took in the mysterious young man Mason? Is it because Mason seemed weak and harmless, while Daniel seemed stronger and could do whatever he wanted at any time?
Push Saab to the ground?
"I know what you are worried about, but I have also said that after the operation, you will be very weak and you will not even be able to get out of bed. You really need someone to take care of you------"
"Brother Sabo, it's enough for me to take care of him." Mason suddenly ran out of the room, interrupting Daniel.
"You?" Daniel glanced at the blond boy and sneered: "With all due respect, kid. You don't even seem to be able to take care of yourself. It's already good enough if you don't cause trouble to Sabo, let alone take care of others."
"
"It's not your turn to interfere in this matter, Mr. Silver Knight of Great Britain." Mason pushed back unceremoniously: "What, is the Knights in short supply of manpower or funds? How can they arrange hospitalization for a knight who has undergone surgery?
You can't do it, you can't even arrange a nurse for this knight, but you want a dignified silver knight to take care of your subordinates? This is unreasonable no matter how you look at it."
"No, Saab has special reasons that prevent him from being hospitalized and arranging nurses, so I came." Daniel replied, "This is Saab's own wish. Why didn't you confirm it with him?"
"Really, Brother Sabo?" Mason looked at the Gray Bunny with a ferocious look that he had never seen before, as if questioning Sabo.
"Well...that's what happened..."
"...So you still don't believe me," Mason said.
"Isn't this nonsense?" Daniel took the opportunity to interject mercilessly, "Who would go to the hospital at a time like this and let a guy like you with unknown origins occupy his hometown and do whatever he wants?"
"Wait, you're going too far..." Sabo wanted to interrupt.
"And the Knights of Great Britain are not a charity. The fact that the Knights are willing to fund this guy's surgery is already very tolerant. You also plan to ask the Knights to fund his hospitalization and hire a private nurse to take care of his surgery."
Daily life after that? It’s so beautiful to think about.” Daniel continued.
"Hey..." A drop of sweat broke out on Sabo's forehead.
"Even so," Mason said, refusing to admit defeat, "I still don't think you, as his boss, should live in his home at this time. Are you a Silver Knight? There should be many black men in your team.
Are the Iron Knights at your disposal? Wouldn't it be nice to have those Black Iron Knights at the same level as Brother Sabo come and take care of him? Why does it have to be you? What is your relationship with Brother Sabo?"
"Do you even need to ask this?" Daniel snorted.
"Wait, wait a minute!" Sabo hurriedly stopped him because he was afraid that Daniel would tell the secret between them and the previous attack on the Death Scorpion Thieves.
"He is my ex-boyfriend. Is it okay to say so?"
"Pfft---------!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sabo almost spit out all the milk he drank.
"What the hell!!" he yelled.
"You are still embarrassed to admit it?" Daniel looked at Sabo and said calmly: "There are not many people here, so just admit it honestly. You always have a morbid obsession with boys younger than you.
, you treated me like this before, and now you will take this guy in for the same reason, right?"
"I didn't expect you to be such a person, Brother Saab..." Mason suddenly looked at Saab with a strange look.
"Nonsense!!" the Gray Rabbit young man said angrily, grabbing Daniel's collar: "You! Come with me!! Right now!!"
Then he led Daniel into his room and slammed the door.
"Why did you say that?!" In the room, Sabo said angrily at a volume that was as loud as possible without being heard by the outside world: "If you say something like that and someone hears it, wouldn't it mean that you are tainting my innocence out of thin air?!"
"I'm doing this for your own good, Sabo." Daniel said calmly: "That kid is obviously interested in you, don't you see it? And now I'm making things clear so that he can die to you.
This heart."
"But I'm not gay!" Sabo said angrily: "If you say these nonsense, Mason will know it. If he says nonsense outside in the future, won't my reputation be..."
"What are you afraid of? He is just a passing guest in your life, and he is still secretly staying in your house. He is probably avoiding someone."
"Mason is my cousin------"
"Oh, put away your nonsense, Sabo, you knew I wouldn't believe it." Daniel interrupted, as if he had seen through everything.
"...Okay." Sabo was like a deflated ball: "He is indeed avoiding someone, and I am just being nosy and letting him stay here for a few days. Other than that, you can
Don’t ask."
"I won't ask, I'm not interested in knowing who that guy is." Daniel rolled his eyes at Sabo: "I just need to help you keep our [shared secret]. It's enough. Live in your house and tell the lie just now."
, I think all of this is what must be done to keep the secret, nothing more."
"But you still soiled my innocence..." Sabo said unconvinced.
"Listen, that kid and you are from two completely different worlds." The young Silver Knight said again: "Now you may have let him stay at your house temporarily, making you mistakenly think that you are very close to him. But in fact
Where is he? After the temporary stay period is over, he will leave here and never come back. Just like he is a passing guest in your life, you are also a passing guest in his life. It is estimated that it will take a few weeks or how many days.
Months and years later, he doesn’t even remember what you look like. How can he remember the trivial things he heard today?”
"That's the truth, but..."
Is the relationship between people really just passing by each other?
If this is really the case, it would be too lonely.
