book of old days

Chapter 26 Fool
When the last light in Xiao En's house was also extinguished, the whole house fell into darkness again.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and it soon came to three o'clock. In the silent night, a figure suddenly flashed in the mirror. Alhaz quietly observed the people in the room through the mirror. everything.

In order to find this place, he spent a lot of effort, but it was good, just let Xiao En sleep a little bit, so that he could move easily.

Alhaz was thinking, silently peeping at everything in the study room, the study room was completely silent, a few rays of moonlight shone in from the skylight above his head, and fell on the desk, reflecting a few scattered books, ink bottles, and a very familiar purse.

that's it!Alhaz felt excited, "Sean Forrest, you ungrateful guy, you don't deserve this power at all, and now, this power is mine, and I won't let you destroy it of!"

After making sure that there was no one in the study, Alhaz slowly leaned out from the mirror.

He walked cautiously, lightly and without a sound.

Walking to the desk, he picked up the leather bag, but immediately he felt that something was wrong, the weight in the bag was a bit too light, he opened the bag and saw that there was a paperback illustrated book inside, which was not old at all. The book of the sun, but a "Biography of Fools", he has read this book, it tells some stupid things in ancient times, teaches people some basic principles, and has a collection of jokes that are entertaining and entertaining. popular literature.

At that time, he felt that the story was very philosophical, but now he looked at the guy on the cover with a stupid smile, and a chill rose in his heart. That face seemed to be mocking him as the fool in the book.

At this moment, the lights in the study room suddenly turned on.

As soon as Alhaz turned his head, he saw Sean sitting on a chair in the shadows of a corner, looking at him with a mocking face. He was wearing a black canvas raincoat with the hood covering his head. He couldn't see his face clearly in the dark, which made him look like the legendary Grim Reaper,

But the person in front of him was not holding a scythe, but a revolver, which was pointed at his head at this moment.

"Good evening, Mr. Ryder." Sean said, looking at the dagger in Alhaz's hand with a sneer, "I'm not mistaken, you brought such a thing to kill me?"

Alhaz threw away the knife in a hurry, just when Sean thought the other party was going to say something, Alhaz rushed towards the mirror, but the next second, Sean pulled the rope at hand , the mirror slipped off the shelf and smashed to pieces on the floor.

Alhaz looked at the shards of mirrors all over the place, his face was surprisingly ugly, he looked at Xiao En viciously, "What are you going to do? Kill me?"

"That's right." Sean said frankly, and now Alhaz was a little at a loss.

"Hehe, you won't, otherwise you would have done it when you were at my house, why bother."

Sean shook his head: "When I was at your house, if I killed you, I couldn't get rid of it. The gunshots would cause trouble, and I hate trouble, not to mention that disposing of corpses in a university town is much more troublesome. , it’s much more convenient here, the Ryan River is not far outside, just tie a stone and throw it into the river.”

Sean said, standing up from the chair, "You are right about one thing. From the moment we attacked Lancet, we have no way to turn back."

As he spoke, he gradually approached Alhaz.

Alhaz retreated subconsciously, but was blocked by the desk, and there was no way to retreat.

He forced a smile and looked at Sean, "You dare not shoot, this is your home, once you shoot, everyone will hear."

Sean had already walked up to him at this time, and nodded in agreement, "You are right, so I prepared this."

When he waved his hand violently, Alhaz felt a pain in his chest, and when he lowered his head, he saw a sharp knife pierced deeply into his chest.

He looked at Sean in disbelief, and was speechless for a moment in pain.

"You - Hehe -"

Blood gushed out of his mouth, clogging his windpipe and blocking what he was trying to say.

Sean slowly put Alhaz on the ground, still explaining: "You are right, the power in this book is indeed unimaginable, how could I really destroy it? Don't worry, I will Make good use of it.

You know, I originally thought about letting you join my team and share this strength, but unfortunately your performance disappointed me too much.

Reckless, impulsive, self-righteous, of course these are trivial things, do you know what is the biggest difference between me and you?That is to be cautious, as long as it is not necessary, I will never take extra risks, just like now, I inserted the knife into your body first, and then explained to you, I will not make that common sense mistake... ...hehe, I guess you have no idea what I'm talking about. "

There was a trace of unwillingness in Alhaz's eyes, and the luster of life was gradually extinguishing. His hand firmly grasped Xiao En's hand, but eventually lost the last bit of strength.

Sean didn't care whether he was listening or not, and said to himself: "But you are different, you are too troublesome, you don't know when you will kill yourself - just like now, look at me You are right.

Maybe it will hurt me one day, so——I think you can understand, right? "

Alhaz didn't answer him, Sean checked Alhaz's pulse, and he was already dead.

The air was filled with the smell of blood and the stench of the dead.

Sean sighed, sat down beside the corpse, covered his face with his hands, let out a long breath, and tried his best to calm himself down.

He was indeed mentally prepared to kill, but when he actually did it, the feeling still surprised him.

It wasn't gross - ok, a little gross, but that had more to do with the smell.

More excitement, nervousness, and a tinge of trembling with fear.

His hands were shaking constantly, killing someone with his own hands was different from watching a water monster drag a person into the water and eat him.

After a while, he calmed down.

After washing his face with cold water, Xiao En knew that he still had work to do, so he had to deal with the corpse quickly before dawn.

He stuffed the corpse into the prepared body bag, cleaned up the blood stains on the ground with a mop, and then carried the corpse out the door. The night in Sword Castle was very quiet. Alhaz was relatively thin, but he was still panting from exhaustion.

When he came to the stone embankment of the Lane River, he stuffed a few stones into the bag, and he glanced around to make sure no one saw it, so he pushed the body down.

Sean heaved a sigh of relief as the bag sank into the water and disappeared after a few bubbles.

Back home, Sean changed his clothes,
Early the next morning, taking advantage of the misty morning fog, Sean got on the train to Port Holden.
