Dawn Redemption

Chapter 19 XIX. The Office

The steaming coffee was placed in a delicate white porcelain cup, and it was gently placed on the desk without even making a sound of collision.Half a cube of sugar and very little creamer, this is the taste Noah is used to.Such things that even the kitchen maids didn't know were clearly remembered by Finn.Of course, Finn didn't drink coffee very much, and the only few times he felt that more creamer was more acceptable.

"Thank you." Although Finn didn't know what to thank, after all, he was his adjutant, but Noah said this as always.Fein stood still and said, "The day after tomorrow, there will be a train to take Madam to the station. A train will arrive in a few days. According to your wishes, arrange to avoid them."

"Well, it's hard work." Noah took a sip of the steaming coffee.The white water vapor floating on the cup is like adding creamer to the coffee-no, don't think about the creamer.Finn blinked hard to keep himself from falling asleep and thinking about it.Noah didn't notice his small movements at all, holding the coffee as if thinking about something, hesitated for a while before saying:

"Greta, she is not my wife." Noah said, "We are divorced."

Finn was a little surprised, but it only showed a fleeting expression of surprise.Noah seemed to be deep in thought without noticing it, and continued lightly: "Fin, you can't see it at all, right? But it's true that Greta and I have never quarreled, but her kindness made her unable to accept my work from the beginning to the end." .

"What do you see here? Don't tell me about the glory of the empire. There is only the jungle, blood and killing. I don't know why you enjoy this kind of killing. For me, staying here is only because of this country If you need me, I am obliged."

When he heard the word "enjoyment", Fein suddenly felt his heart constrict, and he quickly recalled the distorted pleasure when he saw the prisoner's blood gushing out.But it was also accompanied by the throes of inexplicable emptiness.

Perhaps enjoyment is an appropriate description.Because Finn couldn't express his feelings specifically.He just built a barrier with cruelty and loneliness on one road, and no one knows what he wants to protect or hide.

Borrowing the power of red wine at dinner, Noah continued: "I am willing to contribute everything to a worthy cause, but Greta can't understand why this road takes so many lives to lay the foundation. I told her the truth, but she Just praying sincerely, so, a month before I came here, we divorced. I think this is very good, I have no right to interfere with her beliefs."

Noah seemed to have no intention of continuing.Finn wanted to say something to show that he was listening, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he didn't know what to say.Noah looked up at him, and that deep gaze made Finn feel a little uncomfortable every time.But Noah just smiled: "I seem to have talked too much." He lowered his head and continued to work.

After the silence, the sound of the clock moving became clearer again.

With the sound of the "ta, da" bell, Finn couldn't help but wanted to yawn again, and couldn't even concentrate.

At this time, it would be nice to have a bottle of Coca-Cola to refresh yourself. If not, coffee with creamer is also fine...

Stop thinking about creamer!Finn said to himself viciously in his heart.
