"Chris, I want to ask you a question."
After briefly adjusting his mood, Wayne successfully regained his usual energy.
"Um?"
She was in no hurry to leave.
Anyway, it has been seen by so many people, and it won’t be short of such a short time.
Wayne said softly: "If you had the ability to make the world a better place, but you would lose something because of it, would you do it?"
——Why is it that no matter whether it is as Wayne or as Echoes, it is inevitable to be restrained when dealing with problems?
Wayne had thought about this question seriously.
Later, he figured it out.
That's probably because I'm too afraid of losing what I have.
Whether you want to make gentle improvements or want to maintain the status quo, in the final analysis, it is just because you are satisfied with your current life.
Once the noise is too big, a series of chain reactions beyond one's control may occur. By then, you may no longer be able to live as freely as you do now.
After hearing his slightly strange question, Kris paused.
"For me." She hesitated for a moment. "Probably, it depends on what I have to lose for this, right?"
She suddenly joked: "For example, if Wayne must be sacrificed for some strange reason like the so-called 'world peace'... I will definitely not agree to it, no matter what the consequences will be."
When she said this, her tone was extremely natural.
Perhaps because it was said in a joking tone, it made people feel the unswerving determination even more.
"Chris, have you read a lot of lines in the script recently and secretly made up lessons?" Wayne couldn't help but said.
The rank has gone up a lot.
Chris's expression suddenly turned awkward, and finally she couldn't help but rolled her eyes at him, and went back to the classroom angrily.
Silently watching her back disappear from the classroom door, Wayne shook his head helplessly.
Even Chris seems to be much more determined than herself.
Forget it, just think of yourself as a member of the special operations team and make a rare contribution to the city guard.
…
then--
The situation in the capital, which was already tense, was rising one after another.
This time's explosive news is finally something to be happy about.
Because - the "pig man" was caught.
It is said that Miss Echos, who belongs to the [Red Rose Squad] of the City Guard, has been tracking down clues about the Pig Man, patrolling countless blocks, and finally, on a dark and windy night, she dumped the body of the person who came to dump it. The murderer was caught on the spot.
It was obvious that it was only Aikos who acted alone throughout the whole process, but those who talked about it were as excited as if they had witnessed it with their own eyes.
"Let me tell you, Lady Echos pursues justice and once vowed to kill all the evil people in the world. That's why she spent so much effort to apprehend the murderer this time!" One person spat at the mouth with an impassioned expression. Full of admiration.
Good guy, why don’t I know the oath I made myself?
Sitting in a corner of the hotel, Wayne listened to the conversations of those people speechlessly.
"And, and... I heard that she is one of the most beautiful in the world..." The topic of those people got lost in conversation.
Several black lines appeared on Wayne's forehead.
Sitting opposite, Herbert was trembling with fear and restless.
"If you didn't follow my instructions and continued to sneak out in the middle of the night like you did before, you might be the one who gets caught this time." Wayne said lightly.
At this time, Herbert no longer pretended to be a pig man, but showed his handsome face.
Occasionally, women who noticed Herbert's true appearance couldn't help but their eyes lit up, and they even came over to talk to him.
But they were all driven away by Herbert with a look of disgust.
Realizing that what this person said was absolutely correct, Herbert couldn't help but reveal a wry smile.
"I hate interacting with people who approach me just because of their looks," he whispered.
"So, I hardly go out during the day and only eat two meals a day. I rely on the store to deliver meals to my room."
"To this place, I am just a traveler who comes here to relax. Maybe I will leave soon to travel to other places. I didn't expect that my sudden intention would cause so much trouble."
He sighed quietly.
"Fortunately, the real culprit has been caught..." As he spoke, Herbert asked in a slightly tentative tone: "Does Mr. Echos have any connection with you?"
Wayne replied very coldly: "This is not a problem you should be concerned about."
"Ah, I'm sorry!"
Herbert immediately apologized, drinking to cover up his panic.
He didn't forget that this "hero" didn't have a kind temper, he just relaxed his mind temporarily.
With one hand on the table, Wayne tapped the table casually. The brown pupils under the mask stared at Herbert, seeming to be thinking about something quietly.
Herbert's drinking movements became more and more stiff, and gradually he did not even dare to breathe out.
What should I do... Isn't this "hero" also coveting my beauty?
Woo! I, Herbert, am so miserable!
Seeing that his whole body was curled up a bit, like a frightened quail, Wayne couldn't help but frowned tightly.
"Are you a bard?" he asked slowly.
"Yes," Herbert replied weakly.
"You haven't learned anything about your ancestors' pharmacy knowledge?"
Although Herbert had already said these things, in order to avoid surprises, Wayne asked again.
"Yes." Herbert nodded.
Tsk, should I say this person is stupid or smart?
A half-baked bard has almost no use value. No wonder he seemed to have a rich family background and could escape so easily.
By the way... Since he is from Stuart, he should know something about the situation there, right?
Wayne chatted with him without leaving a trace.
"I heard that the system of the Stuart Kingdom is not like Lownes, which will establish the order of succession to the throne early. Instead, the throne will be passed down according to the princes' administrative abilities. In your opinion, the Stuart Kingdom Who is more likely to succeed a king?"
"ah?"
As if he didn't expect the other party to mention this issue, Herbert showed a complicated expression.
After a moment of silence, he replied: "If you ask me, it is more likely that the first prince will succeed in the end."
"Well, why?" Wayne asked.
According to what Senior Raphael once told him, the competition between the first prince and the third prince of the Stuart Kingdom has reached a fierce stage. But even his younger brother couldn't tell which side had the greater advantage.
But Herbert seemed certain.
