"What! Master Echos, are you leaving for a while?" When Bulwer heard the news, his whole body froze in place for several seconds as if he was electrocuted.
"Some personal matters, you'll be back in two or three months. You can find some tasks that require you to go out and arrange them for me, and I can do them along the way."
On the highest floor of the city guard building, in the commander-in-chief's office.
Wayne was bored, watering the row of cacti on the windowsill while talking.
Bulwer finally came back to his senses, suddenly realized something and hurriedly reminded: "We have already watered once during the day, please don't water too much..."
Wayne paused, clicked his tongue in boredom, and put down the watering can.
I have done a lot of work for the city guards these days, and even the crime rate in the royal capital has dropped significantly, so I can be considered worthy of my salary.
Bulwer also knew this very well. Echos had already become the trump card of the City Guard. Having such a capable person at his disposal would help him gain more trust from His Majesty the King. Coupled with the deep admiration in his heart, he would naturally not dare to be disrespectful to Ecos. However, he was worried that this was a sign that the other party would run away with the bucket.
Regardless of whether they are strong or beautiful, they will always go where they should go.
He calmed down and forced a smile: "Although I don't have much personal relationship with you, I always feel like I have known you for a long time."
Wayne glanced warily at Bulwer.
He had not forgotten that when he was chasing Norman, Bulwer lost his temper after drinking and confessed to him in front of Tasia, causing him to die on the spot.
Want to get close? no way.
"That's it, I'm leaving." Wayne was completely uninterested at the moment.
"...Please walk slowly."
In fact, there was still some time before Wayne's official departure, but he could not expose that Echos and Wayne's actions were completely synchronized, so as not to arouse unnecessary suspicion.
After leaving the City Guard, Wayne found an opportunity to meet Tasia again and informed her of his travel plans during the lecture.
While Tasia was surprised, she was also worried about his sudden departure.
But she understands that she is still too weak now, and the teacher is unwilling to tell her the specific content, because she must feel that she is not yet capable of sharing his worries.
So, she didn't say any forceful words like "I can't bear to be a teacher", she just opened the drawer and solemnly handed another pocket-sized stuffed bear she had made into Wayne's hands.
"No matter where you go or where you are, you will always be one of the most important people to me." She said with a very serious expression, "Please keep it with you, just like the doll given by the teacher. me too."
Wayne looked at her for a while, and finally couldn't bear to refuse her kindness and accepted the gift.
Seeing the doll's neatly sewn stitches and delicate and exquisite appearance, Wayne was filled with emotion.
Alas, there is really nothing we can do against her.
A strong person who lives alone can naturally do whatever he wants, but once he is bound and cared for in this world, he can no longer be free.
However, this feeling is not bad.
He rubbed Tasia's head in a teacher-like manner and felt her soft hair brushing against his fingertips. "Take good care of yourself, and don't relax your demands on yourself. I will check your homework next time I come back."
Tasia seemed to feel that she was being underestimated and protested softly: "I don't know how."
…
Summer is coming quietly, and the chirping of cicadas has already begun to sound in early summer, lest others miss this important moment announcing the change of seasons.
The one-month exchange and study of the Holy See delegation has come to a successful conclusion. In exchange, Wayne and Tasia will also go to the Holy See for a month of study.
Originally, Tasia had no intention of leaving the Royal Capital, and for some unknown reason, Wayne suddenly changed her intention at the last moment, saying that since she would have to go to the Holy See sooner or later after graduation, it would be good to experience it in advance. Maybe the people from the Holy See finally convinced her.
This reason is perfect
It's irresistible, neither the academy nor the royal family can refuse.
In fact, you can't really learn anything essential in just one month, but it is enough for Wayne who just wants to "spy on military intelligence."
"As expected of a pampered young master, he even brings pets with him to study in the Holy See——"
A disdainful voice came. Wayne pushed Xiaobai's head back into the car, looked back and saw that it was a male student from the exchange group.
Wayne had almost never spoken to these people alone, and he didn't know where he had offended him. After looking at him casually, he asked speechlessly: "Bishop Smith didn't say anything. Do you have any objections?"
The Vatican student who seemed to be about the same age as himself blushed when he heard this.
Although they are all talents trained by the Holy See, they have not yet obtained formal teaching positions. Their potential will be evaluated and titles will be awarded based on their performance after graduation. An apprentice who is not even a trainee priest cannot question the decision of a cardinal.
Just when the conflict between the two was about to escalate, another female student came from behind the team.
"Alex, have you finished writing your communication and learning insights? You will hand it in when you get back. Don't just deal with it and end up being criticized."
The young man named Alex suddenly became even more embarrassed, but he stopped pestering Wayne and left angrily.
Wayne just felt baffled.
Seemingly seeing the confusion in his eyes, the girl saw that no one else was paying attention, and reminded her softly: "Alex has a good impression of Tasia, so..."
Wayne instantly understood what she meant and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "That's it."
"However, considering that his delusion is almost impossible to realize, I forgive his offense this time."
What a typical loser, you want to use this method to regain a sense of superiority from yourself? So sad.
But the girl didn't leave.
"Ven...classmate, do you...remember me?" After saying this with a little effort, the girl mustered up the courage to stare at him without blinking, as if expecting to see the slightest change in his expression. to get some kind of reaction.
"Um?"
Wayne looked at her face in surprise.
She wore a single lens and a white gown. The breeze blew through the corners of her clothes, giving her a somewhat intellectual aura.
"Are you—" Wayne hesitated slightly.
As if seeing the dawn, the girl in white seemed to be excited in her eyes. She subconsciously took half a step forward and then stopped forcefully. She just stood not too far away and looked at him with a smile, her eyes full of tenderness, looking forward to his next words.
"I remembered!"
"Your name is Camille, right? We met for the first time at the welcome party, and I remember your name." Wayne showed an impeccable smile, "Thank you for saving me just now."
The surrounding wind suddenly became quiet.
The girl was stunned for a moment, then lowered her eyes and gave a slightly bitter smile.
"Um."
