"What happened to you?"
Kelsey asked doubtfully.
Zhou Jinru shook his head: "I just had a nightmare. I dreamed that you were missing. I couldn't find you."
The big lynx was stunned for a moment, thinking that Zhou Jinru was fooling her. Since he didn't want to tell her, he didn't ask.
Zhou Jinru didn't have the intention to dwell on this issue, so he asked, "I thought you wouldn't come today. From what I know about you, there must be other matters."
"I do have something to ask you. The White Sands prince is dead, and it was Hoover who did it. Your shadow is involved in this. How is your current condition?"
Zhou Jinru suddenly realized that Kelxi suspected that something was wrong with him, and this was the real reason for coming to him.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
"Although I want to believe you, this cannot hide your true appearance."
Zhou Jinru asked with slight interest: "What do I look like in your heart?"
Kelsey didn't speak, just looked at him.
At this time, the big lynx had not yet shown any suspicion or resistance towards him. The two of them seemed relatively close and could even accept his jokes.
It seems that Theresia's death has caused very serious harm to Kelsey.
Zhou Jinru didn't know what happened on the eve of the collapse of the Tower of Babel, but he was sure that he did not play a good role in it.
That period of time was equivalent to a black box for Kelsey. She knew everything but had no way of knowing the truth.
"Okay, let's talk about the White Sands chief first. His attempt to assassinate Talat Pasha is equivalent to challenging Sargon's authority. Even if I don't make up my mind, someone will kill him."
Kelsey sighed: "So, I should praise you for using waste?"
"I ended a dispute. No matter how much Talaat's father dislikes him, he is still a pasha. When can a royal chief kill a pasha?"
This man seems a little different. What has happened to him?
"I will tell you this story again when I have the opportunity. From now on, there will be no peace in the Oasis Territory. The first is Hoover. I guess he will choose to leave in the name of Talaat."
Kelsey nodded: "The Baisha settlement is vacated. The poor royal chief died in the attack of horse bandits. Talaat takes over temporarily, no problem."
How could Talaat have so many manpower to take over an empty city? He had to stay in the oasis territory. At this time, Hoover could step forward and temporarily manage the White Sands settlement for Pasha.
Zhou Jinru said with a smile: "He has such a wonderful idea. No matter who takes over the Baisha settlement, he will face a very terrible enemy next, even if Talaat goes there in person."
"You're not going to stop him?"
"Why should I do this?"
How many good people are there among the four horse bandits in the oasis territory?
Hoover's surrender letter was all to pave the way for leaving here. How could he sincerely defect to Tallaght? The unruly horse bandits would not be willing to live under others.
Sargon is a land of greed, but there are also many more greedy people.
"By the way, there was a person who planned to ambush you last night, but I drove him away. Do you know the identity of this person?"
"You should be talking about the balance of fate. It's not that they are ambushing me, but that I am tracking them."
Zhou Jinru frowned: "The balance of fate?"
He had never heard of this name, and Kelsey had never mentioned it a hundred years later. It had probably disappeared over a long period of time.
"A group of lunatics try to use their own means to influence the fate of others. As far as I know, they plant nails around multiple targets. The characteristic is that the fate of some people suddenly changes, becomes very lucky, and appears at a critical moment. Important node.”
Zhou Jinru blurted out: "Hoover?!"
"I'm still checking, so I can't give you an accurate answer."
The only person who fits this point is Talaat except Hoover, and Talaat was influenced by Zhou Jinru. It is hard to say about Hoover.
But what is the purpose of these people?
"I can't answer your question, because I only know a little bit. They are looking for a pair of wings."
Kelxi left. The purpose of her coming here was just to confirm Zhou Jinru's condition. She didn't expect the two of them to chat so much.
The balance of fate...
Obviously, this is an organization. There are so many organizations on the land of Terra, and there are all kinds of weird ones. But when Zhou Jinru pointed out that he was looking for a pair of wings, the first thing he thought of was himself. He has been called a flying fish more than once. With a pair of longing wings.
Could it be that the balance of fate is looking for me?
It's a pity that we didn't capture that person directly yesterday.
Zhou Jinru felt secretly regretful.
After Kelsey left, he sat for a few minutes before taking out the memory pen. This thing had been glowing during this period, but no one could see it except him. Kelsey was face to face and didn't even notice.
He is holding a pen in his hand. There is a line of small letters on the dark green pen body, which means the abbreviation of Britain. It is produced by a pen factory in Britain.
Eliza gave it to Mostima. When he saw it for the first time, Zhou Jinru didn't have the authority to obtain information, so he didn't expect it to be such a precious item.
It's still glowing.
The silver-white light is particularly eye-catching in the dark night, but only the holder can see it.
Suddenly, the pen of memory broke away from Zhou Jinru's hand, automatically unscrewed the pen cap, and wrote on the table, leaving a string of flaming characters.
"Changing your destiny is not something you can do on a whim, and what you get may not be what you want. When Eliza Dawson expelled Mephisto, she used the stupidest and most effective method. She chooses to fight against fate and fight with all her strength. She can defeat fate, but she cannot escape from it because she lacks a pair of wings."
The memory pen continued: "A pair of wings, breaking away from the shackles of gravity, flying into the sky. No one does not long for these. Fish jumping on the water can briefly see their own destiny. They are unable to change their destiny as they drift with the current. There is nothing you can do to change the direction of a long river, but there are always exceptions, such as fish with wings.”
"Fly, only when you fly will you know what you are going to face."
The pen of memory returned to normal, stopped, fell on the table, and the characters written gradually disappeared.
Suddenly, Zhou Jinru found that he had turned into a fish and fell into the water with a splash. He was surrounded by fish swimming with him. Some fish kept moving forward, while others gradually sank to the bottom of the river. Only a few were strong. The fish jumped out of the water, its tail slapped the water, splashing crystal water droplets.
He also wanted to jump out of the water and twisted his body hard. The moment he splashed out of the water, a pair of wings as thin as cicada wings trembled slightly.
He flew out of the water and looked farther ahead.
The broad river is rushing endlessly, and there are countless fish in the river, swimming forward with the current.
