Darkwalker of the Sky World

Chapter 48: Nothing

The winter in Florida is also very warm, and Tallahassee, the best city in the United States to live in, is still green with evergreen trees.

After months of healing, Marianne's leg finally healed completely. However, her emotions are getting more and more annoying.

At the beginning, she didn't tell Zhou Zhen about joining the Psychological Society, and met Horford's pursuit again. The two things added together made it more difficult for her to speak.

Horford's pursuit of her has begun to affect her life, but because she didn't tell Kevin at the beginning, it is even more difficult for her to talk to Kevin.

It was an ordinary winter afternoon, the school began to class, and the coffee shop gradually became deserted.

Marianne was sitting behind the glass window enjoying the warm sunshine, and in front of her was a new fashion home magazine.

Feeling someone approaching, she raised her head, Horford was already sitting across from her.

Horford is a young and handsome young Irishman with a melancholy temperament and is very popular in school.

He and Kevin are two different types. Although such men are very popular with girls, for Marian, with Kevin, she has no interest in this young boy.

"Marian, there is a play in the little theater tonight, can you come with me to see it?"

Marianne shook her head and said, "Horford, we have known each other for more than three months. Did I give you wrong hints during the interaction?"

"No." Hoffman showed a trace of disappointment on his face and lowered his head.

Marianne explained, "I am six years older than you and a married woman. Your attention should be on the young girls at school, not on me..."

"But I love you! Marianne, I don't know what happened to me, you seem to have a kind of magic power that stole my heart..."

Rodriguez, the chef of the cafe, heard the movement and walked over. "Marian, do you need help?"

He stared at Horford coldly and said, "Mr. Horford, you should have seen Kevin too. Marian has a very good relationship with his husband and wife. You are like this and have brought trouble to her life."

Marianne said, "No, Rodriguez, please let us solve it by ourselves?"

Rodriguez shrugged and said, "Of course, I will help you stare at him."

Before the words were over, Horford suddenly took out a pistol, pointed at Rodriguez madly and said, "Asshole, don't you know that I love Marianne? I love Marianne more than that Kevin!"

Rodriguez took two steps back, and said comfortingly: "Hey, man, don't get excited."

Horford didn’t even have the mind to listen to him. He stood up with his hands on the table overlooking Marian and said, "Marian, I will love you more than Kevin. I can’t imagine you and Kevin lying on the same bed. Situation, marry me..."

Marianne was also a little stunned to see the gun. She only reacted when she heard Horford's words. She instinctively shook her head and said, "No, I love Kevin."

"give me a chance!"

"Sorry……"

Horford shed tears, shook his head and said, "If you can't live this life with you, then what's the meaning of life!"

"Bang...Bang!" With two gunshots, Marianne looked at the blood on her chest in surprise, stretched out her hand, trying to grasp something, but was unable to hang down.

There was a scream in the cafe, and the waiter and a few guests rushed out.

Rodriguez also hid behind the table, and threw a chair out, but did not hit Horford.

Horford didn't have the idea of ​​chasing other people. There seemed to be no other people in his eyes, just staring at Marian who was sitting down on the sofa.

There was a hint of horror on Marianne's face, which made her face look a little distorted, her eyes staring weakly at the ceiling above.

Horford came to her, gently hugged her head in his arms, and gently helped her to cover her eyes.

Then he sat down on the seat, put his arms around Marianne, raised the gun with his other hand, and pointed it at his temple.

"Bang..." There was another shot.

"Kevin, recently, the media has been criticizing you and the police for illegal activities in the investigation and evidence collection of the Woodville robbery. I personally think that you are not suitable to follow up this case."

Woodville is a small town 20 kilometers southwest of Talaha. Half a month ago, there was a robbery by a Latino man.

Half of the residents of this original miner town were Latino. They were very united and used threats and other means to intimidate other ethnic groups, which greatly hindered the police in the investigation process.

Zhou Zhen has been busy working on this case recently. I know that the police do not actually violate the rules. It's just that some people are fanning the flames behind their backs and artificially creating a sense of confrontation.

Such criminal cases involve racial disputes, which are often difficult to handle and unprofitable.

Zhou Zhen didn't care about this case, but was a little annoyed by the media reports.

They filmed that Zhou Zhen took a leather bag from Chief Colin, which contained information.

But deliberately used the same leather bag with two thousand dollars in it and took a picture.

This kind of bribery is enough to ruin the official career of a prosecutor, so Zhou Zhen also has difficulty in arguing.

He looked at Attorney General Gatery, and said, "I just intervened in this case, and I haven't understood the whole case. Why would anyone target me?"

Gatery shook his head and said, "Until your innocence is not confirmed, it will be difficult for us to continue to investigate."

Zhou Zhen shook his head and said: "This kind of thing is very easy to verify. It is easy to clarify by investigating with the reporter in the "Gulf Daily" where the photos are published."

Gatery looked at Zhou Zhen, and it took a long time before he said, "How can you prove that you didn't collect the money?"

Zhou Zhen shook his head and said, "When someone has 600,000 U.S. dollars in cash in the bank, will he lose his job for two thousand U.S. dollars?"

This spring, Zhou Zhen sold Cisco's stock. Since he started to draw some funds, his actual profit was nearly 800,000, which did not reach the million dollars he had initially expected.

But this amount of money is already a lot, and there are very few people in the United States who can come up with 600,000 cash.

Gatery was shocked and asked, "Why do you have so much money?"

Zhou Zhen shook his head and said, "I promise it is all legal property."

His tone eased a lot. "Let’s do this today, we will discuss this matter at the regular meeting next week."

Except for Gatery's office, his secretary Michelle said with a bit of annoyance: "It's really confusing black and white, Kevin, have you offended anyone recently?"

Zhou Zhen couldn't believe it, he smiled and shook his head. "no."

The phone rang and Zhou Zhen answered the phone. At the other end is the Sheriff Hanks, whom he is familiar with. "Kevin, you are coming to the State University soon, something happened to Marian."

Zhou Zhen was dumbfounded for five seconds before asking in a deep voice, "What happened?"

"She was shot and killed by an extreme suitor, who subsequently committed suicide."

Zhou Zhen's anger came from his heart, and the phone in his hand was severely smashed to the ground by him, torn apart.

In the original play, John Milton didn't dare to kill Marianne directly, but used various means to drive her crazy, and finally committed suicide.

But now, he actually used the bewitched person directly to do it.

Since entering this world, he has been maintaining himself as a perfect person.

In the face of John Milton, he has tried his best to maintain, but now, he even lost his wife.

Michelle had never seen Zhou Zhen so angry, and asked in surprise: "What happened?"

There was also a voice from Gatery’s office. He came to the door and stared at the broken cell phone before asking, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Zhen slowly squatted on the ground and picked up the phone. "Marian was shot and killed..."

Zhou Zhen didn't suppress his anger because he wanted to maintain his image in front of other people. In fact, there was not much anger in his heart.

Zhou Zhen always avoided committing one of the seven deadly sins, because any one of them could be used by Satan.

Marian's fate was almost doomed from the beginning, but he didn't think deeply.

John Milton wanted to train him to become a desperate spokesperson for the devil, how could Marianne live well.

He refused to leave Tallahassee, and had actually declared Marian's death sentence.

It's just that Zhou Zhen thought he could still mediate, but now he didn't give him this opportunity.

He was too depressed in this world, too aggrieved.

But no matter what, it will have to survive these five years. Three and a half years have passed, and there is still a year and a half.

Zhou Zhen had already felt that blindly resisting was no use at all, and no matter how tough it was, it would be difficult for him to continue living.

Therefore, he must give John Milton a chance to win, and delay time.

However, it is impossible for him to give in to John Milton now.

Marianne was his wife for three and a half years, and the death of his mother was inseparable from John Milton. How could Zhou Zhen succumb?

He also missed a little bit, that is, since Marianne is dead, it means that he has no weaknesses!

Cadillac stopped at the door of the cafe. Outside the cordon, there were hundreds of students watching the excitement.

When they saw Zhou Zhen, their eyes were filled with compassion and ridicule.

Pity is understandable, why is the ridicule?

Zhou Zhen knew soon.

In a short period of time, rumors on the campus have added a peach color to the murder.

According to Marian and Horford’s rumors, Zhou Zhen’s husband’s hat was already green.

Of course Zhou Zhen knew that Marianne had not betrayed him, and the chefs and waiters in the cafe also confirmed Horford's wishful thinking.

But the rumors, after all, the more bizarre, the more popular.

Many mouths are accumulated to destroy the bones, how many mouths does Zhou Zhen have to argue?

He was also unwilling to argue.

Since confrontation does not work, let's change it!
