One Eyed Monster
Chapter 118: secret
The secret is like a blazing fire, arrogantly torturing everyone.
Scorching, heat waves, warmth... This group of fierce fire exerts the ferocity and temptation that flames should have, playing with everyone as much as possible.
Everyone has more or less their own secrets. These secrets may be painful memories or sweet experiences. They will show the complexity that they should have, and then they will become extremely simple. These secrets accompany you and me day after day, year after year, sometimes making you and me happy as chasing slapstick cats, jumping on the open grass, and sometimes making you and me ashamed and distressed as if doing something wrong. The hunting dog cowered and swallowed in a corner where no one cared.
These secrets accompany everyone, alert everyone, threaten everyone...
They burn your mind in every lonely day, and consume your body in every long night. They are your hidden privacy and the shadow you are eager to get rid of.
There is an incredible story behind every secret.
And the story behind Estoff’s is a secret in itself.
As the deputy chief of the imperial local guard court, he himself holds secrets that most people don't know. He knew that the river in Liuli was the dirtiest, he also knew which street was the quietest, and he knew which tavern had the most fragrant wine.
Some people are born to deal with all kinds of secrets. Just like Estef, the process of arresting those fierce fugitives made him understand another function of the river. On the surface, the smooth and clear water surface is not necessarily clean. It means that the bottom of the water will be covered with bodies tied to stones; and those streets that seem to be loud and swearing are not necessarily dangerous. Some people often yell out because of fear; as to whether the wine in the tavern is fragrant, go for it. A few times will naturally discover the secret among them.
Estef has a pair of small eyes. Many people say that these small eyes have magical powers and can always see through many things sharply. If a criminal is caught by Estef, there is no need to interrogate in any way, because Estef's small eyes can see through all secrets.
But Estoff said otherwise. He always emphasized that he just likes to gamble on luck, and every time he happens to be lucky.
But no matter how he explained it, none of the politicians of the Lili Municipal Council dared to approach him, because the group of people were afraid that their secrets would be seen through by Estef.
Of course, the world is fair. There is a perversion like Estov that can unearth the secrets of others at a glance. On the contrary, there will also be a kind of people who can guard the secrets of others with one hand.
This kind of person who desperately guards secrets is called the guardian in the mainland of Uway.
And like Estef, this kind of big guy thinks that guys who can see the secrets of others at a glance are called gravediggers.
These two titles are two ancient positions that are separated from the six existing professions in the Uween Continent. Because positions are scarce, those who master this skill are now the secrets of the entire continent.
guarding the spirit, digging the grave, this is not called for no reason. People with secrets always want to hide the secret, or even to the extreme, want to bury the secret.
Secrets will always be taken to the tomb. Even if some rice mahjongs are not in the soil, they are no different from those in the soil.
Therefore, the two ancient positions of the guardian and the gravedigger are not made out of thin air. They are supported by relative theoretical basis.
However, Estef did not take any time to deal with this. Since receiving the letter from his old friend Alpha Forlan, he has become nervous. His favorite squinting, smoking and gambling luck no longer proceed step by step. He works all day long. In a trance, he doesn't even care about the daily work of the guarding court.
The subordinates naturally did not dare to ask more, after all, Estef was a famous "gravedigger" in Lili City, and no one wanted to risk his secret tomb robbing to alarm this adult.
This strangeness didn't make the guard court of Liuli City struggle for too long, because their deputy chief had suddenly disappeared.
Estef’s disappearance was sudden, and even the head of the guard court of Liuli City was at a loss. Originally, an Estef in Liuli City would be half of the guard court. Now half of the guard court is gone, you say Can you not worry.
For a while, it spread up and down in the city, and the secret "gravedigger" guarding the court suddenly disappeared and became a secret.
Estef naturally didn't know these rumors. Of course, he didn't have the idle time to manage those rumors. He rarely smokes cigarettes now, so there is no time to manage other people's gossip.
But now he wants to control, and he didn't have this opportunity, because at this moment he has already far away from Liuli City, drinking in an unknown tavern at the foot of Gulu Mountain.
After replying to Alpha Fran's letter, he set out to go to Gulu Mountain.
He knows more about Gulushan than anyone else. It seems that his small eyes can really see through many secrets, even the secrets of Gulushan.
But, Estoff’s tiny eyes are not that magical...
"Day after day, year after year, you wear this outfit and work hard." The tavern owner poured wine on Estoff~www.ltnovel.com~ The owner is a camel, and today he did not accept the old man. The reason for the call of the Mayor Mu was that he could not receive three guests in this tavern in half a year.
"I am nothing compared to you." Estov finished drinking the wine in his glass and said lightly.
"Is the secret here showing signs of loosening?" The boss raised his eyelids, his face full of carelessness.
"Yes, and it's Willim." Estoff was weak.
"Hiss——" The boss of the hunchback took a breath, "This is not so easy."
"Yes, I won't be surprised what this traitor does." After speaking, Estov raised his neck and drank another glass of spirits.
"We don't have any advantage in front of this traitor, how are you going to deal with it?" the boss of the camel asked.
"Hmph, I have no plans for the time being, Willem is very sly, as long as I move, he will definitely notice it." Estef said quietly, "So I can only hide here for the time being. Watch the changes."
"Since you are here, it means that you are not fully sure about this incident, otherwise you won't show up to me so easily."
"You are right, I almost understood the current situation of Gulushan while drinking in other pubs."
"Any new discovery?"
"William's movement is not small, even the Alchemy Red Workshop was deceived by this group of people."
"Where are the secrets, have they been leaked?"
"Not yet."
"That is not bad."
Estef poured another glass of wine fiercely, looked at the scenery outside the window, and kept shaking his head.
After all, what should come is here.
The secret will be killed sooner or later. There is no impenetrable wall in this world.
