Endless vast other world

Chapter 46
Kongzhen is in the capital, looking for houses for sale.

He is watching from house to house now.

Squeezed between two large buildings, the house has a yellow-yellow exterior.The stone steps in front of the house were not only dirty, but too dry to have a trace of moisture.But along the base of the wall, weeds were still growing.

All the walls of this house have a sort of prison atmosphere.Once in this place, even the most indifferent person will feel unhappy for no reason.

Sora went into the house again to take a look.

The hall, however, was clad with parapets.It's a pity that the color of the lacquer can no longer be distinguished, only the strange shapes drawn by oil stains remain.The table was sticky, with a dull, cracked water bottle on it.There was a small cupboard in the corner for the stained and wine-stained napkins.

What about the furniture?It's full of indestructible junk, thrown here in a fake way.A few chairs with broken legs and arms, a few poor rugs, and disgusting antique fake paintings hanging on the walls.The stove in front of the wall was black as coal.The furniture looked like a dying old man, old, cracked, rotting, and dying.

Worse still, is the smell in the house.Clogged, moldy, and sour, it makes people chill.It was moist and greasy in the nose, and it went straight into the clothes.It was an indecent smell, a revolting composition.

Sora couldn't help frowning.

Sora himself doesn't mind living in such a place.He has suffered a lot in his life, and it doesn't matter if he eats a little more.

However, it is possible that Kerney will move in together.He couldn't let Kernie suffer like this.

Sora sighed.He walked out of this shabby house.

He was a little depressed.So I just walked aimlessly on the streets of Wangdu.

It was afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, and the air was quite fresh.Looking at the people coming and going on the street, before walking out of the emptiness of the moldy house, it feels like a world away.

Why is Sora so anxious to find a house?In fact, it was just because he really didn't want to live in Herringborg anymore.

In the case of the shape change potion, the case of Anaisa's amnesia, and the case of Hannes's insanity, only Sora knows the truth.The Kangsuo detective guards led by Edson are really a bunch of idiots, they can't solve the case at all.

So in the end, those three cases were put on hold there, and became inexplicably unsolved cases, and finally fell through.

but.Cases can be left alone, but people can't.

Anisha finally returned to the small town where she was born.No matter how reluctant Miriam was, she finally gave in to her.

What about Hannes?After he was driven crazy by Lucia, he would only keep apologizing.Couldn't cheat on girls anymore.However, his family is a great nobleman after all.Under the care of many servants, his life is not bad.Such a day was really a fitting ending for him.

but.Kong really felt that he was ashamed to live in Helenburg any longer.

The reason why Kong Ma lived in Herringborg at the beginning was more because of Ke Ni.Sora knew that Kenney would go with him.Only when she lives in Herrenborg, can Kenny also live in Herrenborg and enjoy a good life.

But now?So many things happened.

In Modan Lite, Sora failed to rescue Biviti.Although King Buson didn't blame him in the end, Sorama still felt that he had failed the king's trust.

Miriam asked herself to investigate the case of Anisa's amnesia, but she couldn't give Miriam an answer.

Sora really blamed himself.He repeatedly let people down.

He felt that he did not deserve to enjoy such a nice house arranged by Herringborg.Therefore, he decided to move out.

But he searched outside, but couldn't find a suitable house.

There are many beautiful houses, but Kongzhen can't afford them.With the money in your hands, the only thing you can afford is the dilapidated house you saw just now.

The streets are full of houses, but it's not Sorama's turn to live.This world seems to hope that everyone is like a snail, born with a shell.

Sora knows that if he leaves Helenburg, Kerni will probably leave Helenburg and choose to live with him.Kong Zhen really didn't want Ke Ni to be squeezed into that kind of house with him.

headache...

Kong Zhen turned around outside a few times, but he didn't think of any good solution.So I had to go back to Herringborg first.

When I arrived at Helenburg, I found that it was noisy inside.

Numerous Kang Sotan guards swarmed in Helenburg.

What's wrong with this?
A bystander told Sora that Edson was investigating a "vault theft".It is said that a thief broke into the underground vault of Herringborg and stole a wand of some kind.The thief was really amazing, and he stunned all the guards in the vault.

Sora saw Edson.He spins like a spinning top.

Sora shrugged and went back to his room.

When he arrived at the door of his room, he saw that Fu Nuo had already been guarding the door.

Seeing Fu Nuo, Sora was subconsciously a little scared.

Sora knew that Fu Nuo was really unfriendly to him.

really.When Fu Nuo saw Sorama, she complained: "Where have you been hanging out? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Before Sora could answer, Fu Nuo handed over a letter.

"Here, it's a letter from Terry."

What!A letter from Terry?
Sora was excited.

Ever since Souma won the Warrington Cup, Terry left the human kingdom and returned to a life of wandering.Although Sora and Pulev tried their best to keep him, Terry insisted on leaving.

Sora can understand Terry.After experiencing the baptism of war, he no longer wants to be a blacksmith.He prefers the life of wandering around.

Some people have wind in their bones.Life is doomed to wander.

Kong Ma has always wanted to contact Terry to thank him for his help.But can't get in touch at all.

Unexpectedly, now Terry took the initiative to send a letter.

Sora was really excited.Before he had time to enter the room, he opened the letter.

Terry's letter reads:
"Mr. Kongma, see the words as you see them.

It's been a while since I left you.I don't know how you are doing now?Of course I hope you are well.

but.I'm actually having a little trouble right now.

I am now trapped in a place called Oberstein.This is the largest horse racing city in the entire human kingdom.I'm having a little trouble here.

Although a little ashamed to say it.But I still have to say, I really need your help.

Please think about it, can you help me once.My situation is worse now.And if I don't get help, I will be so desperate that I will kill myself.

I know your sacrifice well.You should also believe that I am not teaching you to sacrifice for no reason, then I am simply a beast.My request is imperative.I depend on this one help.

In the future, it will be up to the sky, or stay in the mud, it all depends on it.

I will tell you to my face.Because it would take several books to understand my situation.

in addition.Just remember, don't mention a word about this to Pulifu!Do remember this!Don't let Prive know my danger.Perhaps he would go mad and go mad and lead the troops to Oberstein himself.

best wishes.I also wish Ke Ni, Fu Nuo, Pu Lifu, Ou Ya and the others well.

Sincerely, Terry. "

After reading it, Sora was taken aback.

This is actually a distress letter!

What the hell happened to Terry?
Seeing the uneasy look on Kong Ma's face, Fu Nuo asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

Sora showed her the letter.

Fu Nuo took the letter, glanced at it twice, and was also shocked.

"What? Is Terry in trouble? Or in Oberstein?"

"Where is Oberstein?" Sora asked.

"Don't you know?" Fu Nuo said.

"Obstein is a city in the human kingdom. This city is very famous. It can even be said that its fame is second only to the capital. It is because the whole city is a horse racing city!"

After listening to Kong Zhen, he couldn't help but feel his heart tighten.

Terry's distress letter made his heart beat and tremble with fear.

Terry was such a discreet, such a proud man.Now he actually took the initiative to ask Kong Zhen for help.Can meet, he must have encountered a big trouble.

Could it be that he lost a lot of money in the city of horse racing?
Sora couldn't help but worry.

He clutched Terry's letter tightly.It was as if that thin piece of letter paper was equivalent to a verdict of life and death.

Seeing Sorama's worried expression, Funo comforted him and said: "Don't worry. Anyway, Terry was also a person who participated in the Waverid War. He can survive such a big war. What will happen this time?" What's the big deal?"

Kong Zhen said: "Of course I hope he is fine. But I must be a little worried. He is my benefactor, and this time he is in trouble. There is no doubt that I will definitely help him."

Fu Nuo nodded: "Naturally. I'll ask Helenburg to arrange a carriage for you right away."

"Don't, don't!" Kong Zhen stopped immediately.

"Have you forgotten what was written in Terry's letter? He specifically told Prive not to let him know about it. If you asked Herringborg to arrange a carriage, maybe Prive would know about it."

"Oops, I almost forgot!"

Fu Nuo lightly tapped his head.

"Terry definitely doesn't want Pliff to know about this. Also, if Pliff finds out that Terry is in trouble, with their relationship, Pliff will definitely bring thousands of troops to crush Oberstein ..."

Kong Zhen said: "I don't need to trouble you. I will find a private convoy and take me to Oberstein."

Sora was very worried, and asked again: "Prive didn't see this letter, did he?"

Fu Nuo said no: "Definitely not. I heard from the Letters Administration that there was a letter from Terry, so I went to get it. When I found out it was addressed to you, I came to you. I didn't let Prive Know."

After bidding farewell to Funo, Sora returned to his room and began to prepare for Oberstein.

Since Terry described the matter so seriously, Sorama suspects that force may be needed in all likelihood.He decided to take the suit with him.

Under Modan Lite's battle, the battle suit was almost completely damaged.Fortunately, after Sora returned to Herringborg, he repaired the battle suit again.

I packed up my things and went outside to find the convoy.In the blink of an eye, it was night.

Although Kong was really anxious and wanted to leave overnight, the team still insisted on leaving early tomorrow morning.

After all, this convoy is just a private transport vehicle, unlike the convoy in Herringborg, which has so many weapons and equipment, and entourage.It is very unsafe for this small folk convoy to travel at night.

Kong Zhen had no choice but to give up.He decided to take a good rest tonight and set off early tomorrow morning.

at night.Sora finally finished his work and was ready to go to bed.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of his room.

Sora opened the door and took a look.

It's Kerney.

Holding the wax in her hand, Kernie appeared at the door of Kongzhen's room.

Sora was stunned.

To be honest, Sora is really embarrassed to see Ke Ni now.

why?Because until now, Sora still doesn't know what happened to the "inappropriate" dream he had about Ke Ni.

Sora once thought that the "inappropriate" dream came from Lucia's charm to him.But unexpectedly, Lucia never admitted it.

Could it be that that dream was really made because of the desire in my heart?
Some people say that this world is a world that sinks deeper than the bottom.The world itself is driven by savage and primitive desires.

But Makoto doesn't think so.He was ashamed of himself for having such a desire.

Kerney didn't realize that Sora was really shy."May I come in?" she asked.

"Of course, of course!" Sora welcomed Ke Ni into the room.

As soon as Ke Ni entered the room, she asked, "Sorama, are you leaving tomorrow?"

Sora was surprised: "How do you know?"

Kernie said, "Furno told me."

Ke Ni is actually very shy now.In the middle of the night, she ran into the empty room alone.

but.A kind of unbearable embarrassment made her forget the night and her dignity.What's more, her conscience, her spirit of righteousness and her sense of happiness are emboldening her.

Ke Ni stepped forward, put the candle on the table, and said with a somewhat excited voice: "Kongzhen, why did you leave without saying a word, and refused to tell me?"

Sora never expected that Funo would tell Ke Ni about this.

He froze for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"Why don't you tell me about it?" Kerney asked excitedly.

"Even if you don't let me go with you, I can at least see you off...Why don't you tell me?"

Without waiting for Kongzhen to respond, Ke Ni continued to say like a cannonball: "When you went to Modan Lite before, you refused to tell me. I almost failed to see you off. Now you still refuse to tell these things I, just walk around...why?"

Facing Ke Ni's questioning, Sora really wanted to give Ke Ni an answer.

But he opened his mouth and thought for a long time, but couldn't say anything.

Even Sora himself was surprised: Yes, why.

Why do I think that I can tell Fu Nuo and Karen about this, but I can't tell Ke Ni?

Sora just felt it from the bottom of his heart.Whenever he wanted to tell Kenny something like this, it felt like a big stone was stuck in his throat, making him speechless.

The truth of this, Kong Zhen himself can't explain it.

Seeing that Sora didn't answer her, Ke Ni was even more disappointed.

She rubbed her eyes.Covering his eyes, there are some reddish.

Kerney is disappointed.

She felt that the reason why Kong Zhen refused to tell her what was in her heart was because Kong Zhen didn't value herself at all.

"Sorama." Kenny called his name.

"What's the matter?" Kong Zhen answered quickly.

"I'll go with you," Kerney said.

Sora really thought he had heard wrong.He subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Before he could refuse, Ke Ni went on to say, "Why did I come to you? Because I regretted it. I regretted not being by your side when I was in the Linton Cup and Modan Lite."

Sora fell silent for a moment.

"And..." Kerney said.

"Anything else?" Kong Zhen asked.

"You need my help too," Kerney said.

"I heard that this matter is quite big. What if you are injured? What if you are unlucky? So I will go with you."

"Kennie..." Sora didn't know what to say.

"Shh, shhh. Sora, keep your voice down. It's nighttime, don't wake others up. Listen to me," Kernie said.

"Until I met you, I didn't know why I became a magician. I didn't understand the meaning of practicing magic by myself."

"But after meeting you, everything is different, Sorama. Everything is different."

"Before I met you, even for a second, I couldn't figure out what the magic was for. But after I met you, you made me understand that magic is used to help others."

"You know, Sora. Before I met you, I was very confused. Deep in my heart, there was unspeakable pain."

"I don't know, what's the use of learning magic by myself. I feel confused, lonely, like a person trapped in a high tower."

"So, I can only escape, escape. I even escaped from Helenburg and hid in the Hidden Forest."

"But. Even if I run around, I still can't really find myself."

"But, Sora. After I met you, everything changed."

"Your actions, your ideals, and your efforts have made me discover the true meaning of magic."

"Real magic is by no means a trick for the entertainment of nobles. It should be a scalpel to dissect society."

"Magic should not be used to maintain rule, but to loosen the unreasonableness of the world."

"Kongzhen. Do you know why I was willing to leave Yinqi Forest and go out with you? Do you really think that I am afraid of the Queen of Demons?"

"No, it's not, Sora. Not for that reason."

"Actually, it's because, I, I, I..."

Kerney stopped talking suddenly.

She blushed.

Kerney is half a grown woman, half an innocent child.

Kong Zhen didn't say a word.

The emptiness hammered the will of the two of them.It was as if time stood still in the room.

Kerney panicked.She didn't expect to be rejected.

"Oh, it's not...don't want to..." Ke Ni thought to herself.

Her heart was beating loudly in the silence.

After a long time, Sora still didn't speak.

Kong really hesitated, making Ke Ni unable to step down.

Could it be that what I said just now was really just wishful thinking?

but.In Ke Ni's heart, the different feelings for Sora made her feel more urgent and more obvious.

Ke Ni asked Kongzhen: "Kongzhen, you, you... you just said something..."

In fact, Kenney misunderstood.

The reason why Sora didn't speak was not because he wanted to refuse.

But because he was genuinely moved.

Kernie has always been Sora's idol.It was precisely because of following Ke Ni that Sora grew up step by step.

Being praised by your idol?

Kongzhen has mixed feelings in his heart.Joy, excitement...every kind of mood.Those moods are mixed in a melting pot, burning in the empty heart.

"You'll let me go, won't you?" Kerney pressed.

Sora could not help but shed tears when he heard the noble soul utter such a hot voice, and dripped onto Ke Ni's hand.

These hot tears are by no means the fake tears of a dandy who coaxes a woman.

Sora couldn't help himself, and grabbed Kenny's hand.

After receiving the few tears from Sora, Ke Ni was also moved.

"Hey, you agreed, didn't you?" Kenney cried with joy.

"Don't worry, Sora. I'll be of great help. I'll go back, polish my wand, and get ready."

Sora was finally able to speak his mind:

"Kennie, if I don't agree anymore, I'm too ignorant."

Unknowingly.The hands of the two were held together.

The dim candlelight in the room illuminated the pair of fateful mandarin ducks.

The two suddenly realized that they held hands together.

Both blushed.

Ke Ni gently pulled her hand out of Kong Zhen's.

Of course Kong Ma didn't stop him.

Kerney wanted to go.

She took the candle and opened the door.

Sora walked her to the door of the room.The two stood on the threshold.

"Can you be so gentle all the time?" Kerney asked meaningfully.

"I can always be so gentle." Sora replied instinctively.

Hearing Souma repeat what she just said, Keni glanced at Souma.

That was the first sight of a woman in love.Charming and soulful all at the same time.

"Of course you said that." Kenny lowered her eyelids.

"Okay, Sorama, go to bed. I have to get up early tomorrow. I'm going to rest too. See you tomorrow morning."

"Go to sleep." She refused to let Kong Zhen send herself away.

Sora backed out.

Sora had seen how playboys flirted with girls.According to the habit of those "love saints", at this time, it seems that Kong Ma should hold Ke Ni's hand and kiss her.

But Sora didn't do that.

So they just looked at each other with a smile and said goodbye.

The two fell asleep.

The dreams they had were all the same.
