Silver Blade and Rose

What happened next was basically the same as what Edwin said, but Zales was more professional than him in terms of firearms. When he saw "myself" shoot the gun with his own eyes, he had a judgment on where he would hit.He looked at the two bullet holes on the kidnapper's head and hands, and clearly understood that Edwin's guess was correct.

He did fire, but it hit the assailant's right hand holding the knife, rather than killing him with a shot right between the eyebrows, as the report said.The one who shot in the head was Harold Trisius, who was traveling with him, an experienced SWAT officer. If he remembered correctly, the other party had been promoted to the deputy captain of the SWAT team after that incident.

His own memory came to an end like a movie screening. Zars opened his eyes, met Edwin's worried gaze, smiled at him, and said in a relaxed tone: "Finally figured out this problem, I feel a lot more relaxed .”

"You don't care?" Edwin asked.

Zales shook his head.

"It's been so long, and it's meaningless to pursue responsibility." He said, "I have found a job I like, which has nothing to do with the police force. Naturally, I am no longer a victim of lost vested interests."

"But he would have been punished for this incident, and now he is praised and even promoted for 'assisting' you."

"It doesn't matter if you give him all the credit." He acted that he cared more about the fairness of this matter than himself, and Zals couldn't help laughing, "I don't need those anymore. Whether now or in the future, I will Stay here. Let him continue to worry about the false glory, for fear that one day I will go back and settle accounts with him, isn't it pretty good?"

After he said that, Edwin's face turned pale, and he finally didn't express any opinions.Zales solved the problem that had been bothering him all this time, and felt relaxed. Looking out the window, it was getting dark, and his stomach started to growl.So he got up and told Edwin that he was going downstairs to see what Hannah had prepared for supper.

It was only when Zals reached the door that Edwin said abruptly: "I'm serious about what happened just now, you can think about it."

It is impossible to take back the foot that stepped out of the door. Zals stopped in the corridor, a little unresponsive, and looked back at the light shining through the crack in the door of Edwin's room.

What does "just now" refer to?He thought slowly.

After going through the conversations between him and Edwin in the previous few hours like a revolving lantern in his mind, Zarles caught the possible answer in disbelief.

He looked at the dim light leaking from under the door, across a door panel, and suddenly felt that he was more like a dream than before.

"Don't doubt it, it's just what you think."

It wasn't until Edwin's voice sounded through the door that Zales suddenly came back to his senses and ran away without looking back.

Elvins was chatting with Munn downstairs, and there was a plate of freshly baked biscuits on the table, which still exuded heat with the aroma of sesame seeds.

"Come and try, Hannah's new product." Elvins pushed the plate of biscuits towards him, "White...sesame seeds bought in Chinese supermarkets? Is that what you say, it tastes good. "

Zars sat down on the sofa in shock, even forgot to say hello to him, took two mouthfuls of tea from the cup handed to him, and couldn't help but pinch his thigh, only then did he come to his senses—he What I heard just now should be true, Edwin seems to have really said something serious.

He took a biscuit, tasted nothing in his mouth, took two mouthfuls, and finally couldn't help asking Elvins next to him, "Do you think Edwin is a joker?"

"Huh? What did he say?" Elvins looked at him in confusion, and said in a tone as sure as the sun rising from the east, "Abel is usually very boring. I have known him for so long, and I seem to have never seen him." He was joking."

Zales: "..."

If it wasn't just a few minutes past, he would start to doubt his memory again.

Maybe it was because his face was too ugly, Elvins asked again: "What's wrong?"

"...It's nothing." He waved his hand with difficulty, and said, "The biscuits are good, but I'm not too hungry. I'd like to have some of this at night."

Zals was carrying the biscuits and the tea that Muen poured him, and was about to go upstairs to think about life, when he heard a familiar horn sound from outside the door, he stopped by to open the door, and found that it was Grant who hadn't seen him for a while.

"What's there to eat? Give me some." Grant parked the car at the door, and took a biscuit from his plate when he entered the door. "Drove for hours in a row, and there was nothing along the way." Eat, I'm starving to death."

He strode through the door, chewing a biscuit, across the porch into the living room, and although there were a lot of people there, he wasn't treated very well.Zals was obviously out of shape, and Muun didn't want to talk to him, but Elvins smiled politely: "There are some cookies left by Hannah, do you want to try them?"

Grant wondered: "What were you doing just now? Why is Zars so out of his mind that he doesn't even have time to show me a face."

Good question, too bad neither Elvins nor Munn knew the answer.When Zals opened the door, he held the plate and was distracted. He didn't even notice that Grant had taken half of the biscuits. It wasn't until a hand waved in front of his eyes that he suddenly came back to his senses: "What's wrong?"

"Why have you been distracted?" Grant stood in front of him, withdrawing his hand with a puzzled expression, "Where's Edwin? I need to find him."

Mentioning Edwin, Zars' face quickly turned red suspiciously: "I...he should be upstairs, but what are you asking me for?"

Grant felt that he was a little puzzled: "They said that you just came out after talking with Edwin, and you also know about me, don't you just ask by the way?"

It was only then that Zals managed to bring his wandering thoughts back to the right track, patted his face to sober up, and said solemnly: "He is in his room, you just have to knock on the door if you have something to do."

"No need," said Edwin, standing on the stairs.

No one found out when he came out, only Elvins, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, got used to it naturally, bent down and picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea, signaling him to sit in his usual exclusive seat.

Edwin sat down on the sofa over the petrified Zars, and said calmly, "Just talk about it."

"You all looked unhappy. I thought you were in the dormant period again." Grant glanced at him, as if confirming whether the person in front of him was himself or a counterfeit, and then said, "You promised me before." It’s almost time to cash in.”

They still remembered Grant's previous agreement with Edwin. If things didn't make much progress, he probably wouldn't come here.Now that he was about to get down to business, Zales quickly adjusted his state and asked him first: "Have you figured out a way to sneak into Unsaster's territory?"

Anyway, no one in this room would go out to leak secrets, and Grant didn't hide anything: "Flesa's white coat, I found it."

Zals froze for a moment, then subconsciously turned his head to look at Edwin.

Only he here knows about the relationship between Friesa and Edwin, and even Elvins doesn't know about it, let alone Grant, who has never heard of it before.Maybe it was because his gaze was too earnest, or maybe it was because the atmosphere between him and Edwin was very strange, Elvins was keenly aware of the abnormality, and asked, "What's going on?"

"Nothing—"

"Where did you find it?"

Zals and Edwin spoke at almost the same time, but the latter's question was slightly longer than the former's denial, and it sounded like Edwin had interrupted him.Zals sneaked a guilty glance at Edwin, thinking that the other party could read minds, and his thoughts at this moment could not be hidden in front of him, so he couldn't help but look away again.

Grant witnessed the whole process of their suspicious interaction, and felt that the two men had some ulterior secrets, but right now his business was more important, so he suppressed his doubts without curiosity, and answered Edwin's question: " A small place called Chanol, about five hours' drive away from here. The things are collected by ordinary people, and they are said to be relics left by his mother, and I bought them with some money."

The place name Zals still has an impression. It is very close to the ruins, and it should only take about half an hour to drive.If Grant had found Flesa's stuff this close, there was a good chance it was genuine.

"Take a look."

After pondering for a moment, Edwin said.
