"I have nothing to say."
Facing Rean's oppressive and Miao Jie's obviously "ill-intentioned" gaze, Ash acted very strong.
No struggle, no begging for mercy, just a plain statement of facts.
"You can arrest me and hand me over to... Mihail's poker face can't do it. The scarecrow will most likely come to get me out..."
"Have you admitted that you are from the Intelligence Bureau?" Miao Jie asked with a half-smile.
"Strictly speaking, it doesn't count. Unlike you noble young ladies, I have never had any reliable connections. I was able to get into the second branch entirely because of my own strength - it has nothing to do with that guy 'Scarecrow' .”
When talking about this matter, Ash couldn't help but feel proud on his face.
The kind that comes from the heart, if Yuna were here, she would definitely feel ashamed.
Although she also comes from an ordinary family, she was able to come to Thors because of Claire's connections. As a student, her most critical achievement was being crushed by Ash.
All the excuses she could come up with were shattered by Ash's performance, except for the gender difference between the two.
It's a pity that this is Semlia, so-called women's rights do not exist or are needed. Women here can not only hold up half the sky, but can also overwhelm men from time to time, making men feel chilled.
Miao Jie didn't think there was anything wrong and said, "In other words, you and Major Alandel have the same relationship as I do with Instructor Li En?"
After saying that, he wanted to use his hugging skill again, but unfortunately, Rean was on guard this time and easily dodged it.
Ash also became excited at the same time and said frantically: "Who would have that kind of relationship with him? You rotten girl, do you only think about colors?"
"Ah, I'm talking about teachers and students, where are you thinking?" Miao Jie has always been very careful about temperament and speech. "You have a rotten eye to see people. Only when you have color in your heart can you see everything." It’s purple.”
"You woman." Ash had the urge to hit someone.
Fortunately, Li En stopped him in time: "Miao Jie, please stop saying a few words. Ash, please continue. Is Major Lecter your teacher?"
"No." Ash's mood calmed down a little. "Although I did learn a lot from him, I also investigated a lot of things for him. It's a deal. If I have to say it, I'm that guy's secret spy. , the kind that is worse than the Mini-Rabbit. I entered the second branch because there is something I want to know no matter what, and the guy said this is the fastest way."
"What exactly is it?" Miao Jie asked again.
"No comment." Ash snorted, "Otherwise, you can also try to torture me and teach me the words of 'Rakshasa'. With that difficult woman around, even a scarecrow will find it difficult to reach out. "
As soon as they finished speaking, Miao Jie and Li En were silent for three seconds, looking at each other, and then they laughed together, a rare loud laugh.
"Ha ha ha ha ha--"
"Hahahahaha——"
"What's so funny." Ya Xiu is still a young man in essence, and he still has a self-esteem that cannot be killed or insulted.
The two of them tried to stop laughing.
"That's what he said, instructor."
"Ash, you really don't understand at all."
"Clam?"
"Although you act very mature, when it comes to your own affairs, you can't see clearly around you... Who do you think of the branch principal and us? With Altina here, do you think the branch principal will care? Really? The second branch was originally established under the watchful eyes of all parties."
"Compared with dropping out of school, the branch principal will let you do it more freely, because it will be more interesting..."
"Or let you take her life at any time!"
"Yes, yes, this is the most likely."
Li En and Miao Jie kept talking to each other, making Ashi speechless and unable to help but tremble all over.
"Stop talking, there is a picture. Really, I have reached a place where I have no common sense."
"What about you? Is it common sense?" Rean asked pointedly.
Ash's pupils shrank: "How much...have you grasped?"
"Not much, just a little bit." Li En gestured with his thumb and index finger, then turned around and said, "Miao Jie, go and walk around."
"Hey, why is this like this?" Miao Jie's face immediately fell down, and she looked like she was about to cry, "I, I have done so much for you, instructor, and you, you actually want to abandon me!!!"
In response, Rean just said lightly: "Don't even think about coming back to eavesdrop. You can't hide it from me."
"You, you, you - you are more ruthless than Captain Randall. I am so miserable..." Miao Jie burst into tears.
Rean and Ash were not surprised, as long as the person left, they were just pretending to cry anyway.
After she walked away, Li En continued: "Ash, you just said that you have no relationships that you can rely on. This is wrong."
"The relationship you want to talk about can't be between you." Ash rolled his eyes. Children in the rebellious stage can't stand this kind of bluntness.
"Yes, if you think so too, the bond is two-way, one-way is not advisable." Rean nodded first, then shook his head, "I mean the other side... Do you remember what I told you before?"
"You mean...someone asked you to take care of me? And it's not a scarecrow?"
Ash's memory is still good. He thought about this sentence many times, but he never got it right.
He thought Rean would tell him soon, but he didn't expect it would take so long.
"Yes."
"who is it?"
"He's from your hometown."
"Do you have any acquaintances of yours in Rakewell?"
"It's not Rakewell, it's a place further back and far away, somewhere that no longer exists on the map."
Rean has been waiting for an opportunity to have a showdown with Ash, and it's today.
He would come out at night just to wait for Ash, regardless of whether Miao Jie was there or not.
Ash's face turned pale, and his body and spirit were shaken: "No, it's impossible!!! This, how is this possible -"
Excited, Ash grabbed Rean's collar, widened his eyes, and tried to find some flaws in him, but still found nothing.
What was waiting for him was Li Enbi's gesture of silence.
This is the biggest, most unwilling person to know, and the secret that must never be told. Ash knows this very well, but he still can't help it.
"You must be lying to me-"
It's a pity that all this anger and all doubts have disappeared under one name.
"John."
His hand slipped down involuntarily, and his tense body relaxed as if it had been stretched to the limit. He murmured to himself in a daze:
"Impossible, you, how do you know this name..."
"Are you admitting that your real hometown is Hamel?" Rean sat down next to him and asked softly.
Ash didn't answer directly, just said: "Tell me, where did you know about it?"
Rean also didn't answer, but took something out of the inner pocket of his clothes and handed it to Ash.
"This is--"
A harmonica? ? ?
