Chapter 3332 The Trial of the Big Fool (One Hundred and Thirty-Five)
Chapter 3332 The Trial of the Great Fool (135)
The two moved to the corridor, and after they were some distance away from Sophia's ward, Petrus asked: "So, Captain, why did you come to see me?"
"Let's hear your answer." Daniel said without emotion: "You listened to that piece of music so seriously just now, and you seemed to have the answer."
"That piece?" The uncle said with a smile, "Isn't that a very ordinary piece? It was because Sophia played it so seriously that I listened politely and carefully."
The Silver Knight boy had a serious face: "Don't beat around the bush with me. I know what you know."
Petrus smiled: "That's alright. It seems that I can't hide anything from you, captain. So I'll tell you. Although this is not an interesting story, it will probably be so boring that you will doze off."
"Let's talk about it."
"It was about ten years ago," the Black Iron Knight began to recall.
"At that time, I was not affiliated with the Knights of Great Britain. I was an intelligence officer of another organization.
At that time, we were sent to a certain country to perform some...intelligence collection work. I can't tell you which country it is specifically and what kind of intelligence we want to collect. In short, that's it."
What do you mean, it's just like that? Daniel murmured in his heart. Petrus described it mysteriously, so it was probably some kind of dirty work.
"That country was actually in a state of civil strife, and some people wanted the country's leader to fall. So our group had collaborators in that country. And the collaborators sent help, including various supplies.
There are informants who facilitate our intelligence work and even slaves who serve us."
Daniel found it incredible: "The slave owner gave his slaves to you for free?"
"No, it's just a temporary loan. The ownership is still in the hands of the original slave owner." Petrus laughed and said: "There are many ways to control slaves. You can also use spells to restrain their actions. Before they
It’s OK to plant a bomb in your heart. As long as slave owners are willing to spend enough money to [reform] a slave, their slave cannot be lost, and others cannot take it away.”
Daniel snorted: "Don't change the subject, okay."
"Well, now we are about to get to the point, be patient." The uncle continued to laugh, "There must be a dozen slaves borrowed to serve us. They are all very capable guys, and they provide great convenience for our work -
-Whether it is from the perspective of intelligence collection work or from the perspective of daily life. Our group even seriously considered kidnapping these borrowed slaves and using them for their own use. But considering that
The slave owner was a big shot who couldn't be offended, so we didn't really take action.
And among that group of slaves, there was a particularly capable boy...that little lion with blood-red hair all over his body."
"lion……?"
"The legendary orphan of Solis Kingdom." Petrus sneered: "Speaking of which, the child who acted with you, captain, is also a white lion. He is also from the Soris Kingdom? Is there any connection between them?
?"
"I don't know. Don't interrupt and go on." Daniel urged: "What did that blood-red lion man do?"
"Well... no. He didn't do anything. He was just responsible for leading the way, allowing us to more easily detour through the mountainous terrain with complex terrain, saving time and energy."
"...Is it really just like this?"
"Really." Petrus looked away and deliberately lit a cigarette.
"No, you are hiding something." Daniel chased after him.
"You are such a nosy person." The black iron knight uncle sighed, looked around the corridor, and then replied: "That guy... provides [services] at night."
"...Service?" The young Silver Knight frowned.
"Well...it's the kind of service you imagined. There are many slaves who provide this kind of service, and some are trained and have superb skills. Even if the kid is a man, the work on his hands and his mouth
The work here is very good...It is said that even the lower body is not inferior to that of women."
Daniel blushed: "Stop talking, I don't want to hear this. You guys are so perverted."
"It has nothing to do with me. I was still young at the time and was very resistant to this kind of service. Others in the team asked that guy for [services], but I didn't. Well... basically none. In order to fit in with the group, I couldn't do anything.
No, I only let that kid do it to me once. It was really just [hands], not even [words]."
Daniel covered his face: "That's enough, that's enough. There's really no need to say any more."
"Anyway, that's it. That kid left a deep impression on people, so I remembered it, even if he was just an unknown slave." Petrus continued to recall: "Then... one night,
When our reconnaissance mission was about to end, other people drank and caroused all night. They were drunk and had sex with the slaves. After having fun, they all fell asleep. The whole camp was in a mess, with disheveled people everywhere, and they fell asleep on the ground.
drunk."
(How rotten is the life of you guys...)
"However, I didn't integrate well into the team. They didn't know that I could never get drunk no matter how much I drank. Every time I would drink with them, and then pretend to be drunk and fall asleep. But when
After everyone fell asleep, I got up and walked out of the camp to try to catch my breath. The camp was full of the stench of wine, meat and other things. Who could stay here except a drunkard?"
"Hahaha……"
"Then, under the moonlight, on the cliff next to the camp, I heard the sound of the harmonica. It was the music of the harmonica." Petrus recalled: "The blood-red little lion was indeed the same.
He didn't sleep, and he wasn't drunk. Although he was dirty and disheveled in order to [serve] other people, he just sat there, playing the harmonica calmly, as if everything that happened had nothing to do with him.
It’s irrelevant."
The Silver Knight boy showed a gloomy expression.
"To be honest, I really admire that kid. Even if he becomes a slave, even if he has to sell his body to survive, he can still be so calmly immersed in his own little world, without despair or collapse. This kind of thing
, how many people in the world can do that." The uncle took a deep breath of cigarette and hummed: "I even suspect that he is enjoying all this - enjoying the scene of himself being soiled, ruined, and humiliated."
"So...is that the song?" Daniel asked.
"That's the tune. Because it's so impressive, I won't remember it wrong." The uncle nodded and said, "I asked him what tune it was. He only replied that it was the tune from his hometown. The so-called Kingdom of Solis.
The country was destroyed a long time ago. If that is the tune of his hometown, then the tune must have been passed down from the destroyed kingdom."
Daniel blinked: "That's it?"
"Well, that's it. I told you, this story will bore you."
Daniel still didn't believe it, "It's really just like this. Nothing...has happened between you?"
"It's not a good habit to ask questions in a place like this, captain." Petrus looked away awkwardly and put out his cigarette: "You want to get some clues from me, but there is actually nothing."
Clues. The only clue is [it is a tune handed down from the destroyed Kingdom of Solis].
And you probably can guess this without asking me. Isn’t that white lion also from the former Solis Kingdom?
But that child is so young, he probably has never seen the scene when the kingdom was destroyed, and it is impossible for him to know what the previous kingdom was like."
Well, God knows. Elaine seems to be older than she looks. Daniel also tried to ask Elaine before to confirm that the guy's body seems to be in a special state that will not continue to grow. In other words, Elaine
Ryan has always looked like a white lion boy from a long time ago (at least that's what Daniel thinks).
The Silver Knight boy touched his chin thoughtfully.
All the clues were broken. He only knew that the music came from the Kingdom of Solis, and that there was another lion-man slave with blood-red hair who knew how to play the harmonica music. There was no way of knowing whether the blood-red lion man was alive or dead.
.And as a person who became a slave ten years ago, he is probably in bad luck now. It is simply impossible to find a blood-red lion man in an unknown country who became a slave ten years ago.
Daniel had no clue at all except that his hair was blood red and he was a slave.
Moreover, even if you know that the blood-red lion can play that tune, it doesn't mean anything. Maybe it was really a tune that was very popular in the Kingdom of Solis in the past, and most of the older lion people know it?
But Elaine, the White Lion, burst into tears when she heard that song, and her reaction was really exaggerated. It really made people care.
"Well, I have nothing to do here, right?" Petrus asked Daniel, who was in deep thought: "Should I go back to the ward? It's a rare vacation. I want to spend more time with Sophia."
"Oh, of course. I won't disturb you anymore." Daniel nodded and said, "Say hello to your daughter for me."
"How many times have I told you, Sophia is not my daughter." The uncle scratched his head: "That is the child left by my late friend. I am only responsible for taking care of her at the moment."
"What kind of disease is that?" Daniel asked casually.
"Cartilage is congenital." The uncle shook his head and said: "Although modern medical technology can be used to strengthen her bones to prevent her from turning into the so-called glass bones that break when touched, it is difficult for her body to grow.
And I estimate that I will have to live in the hospital for the rest of my life."
"Is that why you need so much money to treat that child?" The young Silver Knight looked askance at his subordinates: "Uncle, you are unexpectedly a good person?"
"There are not only two kinds of good people and bad people in this world, Mr. Daniel." Petrus smiled mysteriously: "Don't judge people simply by good or bad. Most people are not good or bad, they are in that gray area.
, only acting for their own interests."
"Are you also a person in that gray area, Mr. Petrus?" Daniel also showed a poker face to the uncle: "You can do any bad things for profit? In order to save your family's Sophia, just
Can you hurt innocent people?"
"I also have a bottom line. I will never attack women or children." The uncle replied: "For other people, it depends on the situation."
"Indeed." Daniel smiled. He didn't say anything more to Petrus and teleported away.
"What a bad-tempered captain." Petrus laughed, scratched his head, and walked towards the ward.
At the same time, Daniel also teleported and came to the surface of Atlantis, the ruined city.
He shouldn't have interfered with things here. He knew that the lost city of Atlantis was a death trap with no way out. But that didn't stop him from coming to visit Elaine. After all, he said he would help investigate the song.
Regarding the song, after the investigation is completed, you must report the matter to Elaine.
"Uh," when he appeared at the camp, he happened to see Queeg putting a tied blood lion on the ground, while Elaine was sitting on a stone nearby, showing a depressed expression.
