"I will definitely do it. I will strive for more benefits for Miss Alt, and at the same time, I will strive for more benefits for myself. At this moment, we are good partners on the same boat."

Phoenix was generous to strangers and spoke kindly and pleasantly. The blond woman with blue eyes and carrying her schoolbag leaned against the armrest and chatted with Fourier for a while, letting Fourier know that she was 18 years old and lived with her parents. There is also an older brother, and the three family members are all workers.

Perhaps thinking that the quarrel between his parents last night might be overheard by Fourier, Phoenix's expression turned gloomy, and he smiled reluctantly and asked about Fourier's situation. In this regard, the young man had nothing to hide. Five Ten also told Phoenix.

At this time, Heizhen, who had already tidied himself up, poked his head out. From the neighbor girl's perspective, it looked like a bunch of stupid hair sticking out of Fourier's arm.

"Good morning, Joan of Arc." Phoenix waved his hand, "I'm leaving first, come to school quickly."

Fourier and Heizhen behind him watched the girl next door go downstairs. Phoenix grew up in a working-class family. After seemingly being suppressed by the rough and cheerful family atmosphere, he developed a gentle personality, moved slowly and methodically, and wore leather boots. The aftermath of stepping on the stairs echoed for a long time.

The young man turned around, his shadow covering Hei Zhen who was standing very close, and said: "Actually, there is no need to poke my waist with your fingers crazily behind my back, because I have a sense of what to say. And this is a great friend, She was worried that I, a stranger, was plotting against you, so she waited until you showed up and confirmed your status before leaving."

"What are you talking about? We haven't known each other for more than 24 hours. We can only trust you." There was a trace of resentment in Hei Zhen's voice, "Besides, your vision is not honest. Are you men so superficial?"

Phoenix is ​​average-looking, and the only impression left after the brief exchange was her gentle personality and her figure.She and Hei Zhen are about the same height, but the cup size is visually two times larger.Unless Fourier is a eunuch or a tablet lover, it is impossible not to be attracted by the swaying silhouette.

"What a pity, at least I am so superficial. Miss Alter, is that little girl next door your informant?"

"Yes."

"Is she your enemy?"

"No, I can trust her on this."

Fourier breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great. In Miss Foer's condition, even as an enemy, attacking her would be detrimental to martial ethics."

Does a guy like you still have martial ethics?I would rather believe that Toby Gerrard is a philanthropist.

When Hei Zhen's words came to her lips, she swallowed them back. She was afraid that when the words came out of her mouth, this sinister guy with a smile would say dirty things to her again.

Chapter 5 The Philosophy of Foreigners·Combined

Under the pretext of understanding his client's life, Fourier acted as a young lawyer from a law firm that reversed black and white and entered Santa Mantua Girls' School.The Law Firm of Reversing Black and White was one of his former clients. After completing their commission, Fourier registered a vest there.

The same vest also exists in the secret police, the navy, the largest wizard organization in Europe, the Tiantian Tower, and even in the witch organization "Confessions", he has the title of a gynecological master. He has a lot of professional acting experience.

The girls' school actually doesn't lack men, it just lacks an excuse to legally enter.Fourier happened to catch up with the open day. It was obviously a girls' school, and there were more men than women in his field of vision.

He and Hei Zhen walked in tandem, keeping a reasonable distance from strangers.The young man sent Hei Zhen to the door of the classroom from a distance, and then left despite the curious eyes of a few people.

The client is here to fulfill her duty as a student, and he is here to fulfill his duty as an operator.Near the corridor window, Fourier saw Toby Gerrard arriving at the school with his family and bodyguards.

Then, the evaluation of the target family begins.

Fourier took out the gold-rimmed glasses from the breast pocket of his vest and put them on. This was the last piece of the puzzle of his disguise. At this moment, he became gentle, a little clever, and showed an arrogant, nouveau riche temperament. The big gold chain swung back and forth on his waist bag, exactly like the young lawyer in the capital.

In this progressive school, the one who had the best relationship with Hei Zhen was Felix. After class, she sat on the seat next to her friend, leaning on her arms and looking at her with a smile.

"Huh?" Hei Zhen made a nasal sound.

"That Mr. Strife is the one who showed up in your shop yesterday."

"Well, he came from the capital. At first, I thought he was an ordinary customer. It wasn't until closing time that his true identity was revealed."

"What do you think about that inheritance?"

"I don't have any ideas, I haven't thought about it yet."

"As for me, although I told Mr. Strife that I was very happy in the morning, in fact, I am not so happy." The girl said hesitantly: "If you inherit that inheritance, you will go to Sufaye Let’s live a better life...Ah.”

Tears welled up in Felix's eyes, and Hei Zhen retracted her finger. Just now she flicked the noisy little sparrow on its forehead.

"I won't leave if you are still here." Hei Zhen turned away, "If you, a fool, become that kind of hopeless woman, others will doubt my taste."

Felix just giggled, her face turning a light peach color as she felt the happiness of friendship.Hei Zhen's impatient expression gradually disappeared, and a soft halo enveloped her face, although only for a moment.

This girl who seemed to be born with resentment returned to her awe-inspiring posture, her pale golden eyes refracting the sunlight into a diffuse cold light.

Some people who originally wanted to be friends with Hei Zhen were dissuaded by her aura of not killing anyone. They didn't understand why there was anger and hatred hidden in that little body, and those who could stay could always pay attention. Under Heizhen's hard shell, there is tenderness and softness wrapped up.

If you don't take care of her, this girl will probably fall into the deepest part of hell, so I have to hold her up before she falls... This is the reason why Felix made friends with Heizhen.

"Joan of Arc, what do you think of that lawyer?"

"What do you think? I don't like it very much."

"But I think he likes you very much."

"so what?"

"You have to be careful. I asked him about his situation this morning." Felix sighed: "He is 25 years old. He has a car and a house in a place like Beijing where land is very expensive - although he still has a 15-year mortgage. , but at this age, he is considered young and promising.

He has a stable job in a law firm, and has an older brother and two older sisters at home. The three of them have already planned their own paths, and they have no disputes with Streif (pseudonym). It can be said that this man has a successful career and is currently A period of steady growth in accumulated resources. "

Heizhen yawned and was not interested in the information Felix said about Fourier. After all, Fourier was a stranger with whom she only had a brief encounter. She only needed to know the other person's strength.

"Oh, it's excellent." The client commented casually.

"That's why you have to be careful. My mother told me that any wealthy bachelor always wants to marry a wife. This has become a universally recognized truth."

Hei Zhen sighed. This sentence was used by the wife next door to educate her daughter, so that Phoenix could guard against the two hot-blooded young men of the Gerald family. He did not expect that Phoenix would say it in a serious way to educate others.

At the same time, Fourier walked into a corridor covered with vines, and a light spot hit the back of his hand.He looked at the Gerald family from a distance, and watched the school teachers surrounding him begging like beggars.

Toby Gerrard wanted the women and children of Orleans to remain ignorant forever. This is equivalent to Peano's axiom in local cognition, and is the starting point for deducing Gerrard's other evil deeds.

Although he has such a strong desire to destroy the female education system, in order to maintain the image of the nation's good godfather, he is still the largest sponsor of girls' schools. From time to time, he also holds lottery draws through newspapers, attracting some dogs with low self-esteem. Begging for food from the master in the circle of public opinion.

In terms of appearance alone, Toby Gerrard can be said to be kind-hearted, elegant and easy-going, giving strangers the illusion of "Ah, what a good guy."Because of this, Fourier felt inexplicably ironic when he thought of the dirty information he asked his former patrons to collect about Gerrard before coming to Orleans.

The person holding Gerald's arm is undoubtedly his wife Ines. Unlike her energetic husband, she looks frail. Her pale face, prominent cheekbones and dry hair all indicate that she is in a certain situation. Suffering from this kind of mental illness, she appears to be more than twenty years older than her husband... and the real age of the two people is opposite to their appearance.

According to what Heizhen said, if we only count the facts, Gerald had two sons. The eldest son was born to an English woman, named Kane Gerald. After the English woman died, he married again. He married a Portuguese woman and gave birth to his second son, Jota Gerrard.

In addition, it is said that before Gerald went to Germany to study in Germany in his early years, he had an unknown number of children with a woman known as the Sword Witch. Those illegitimate children disappeared into Gerald's history like their mother. Become a fan.

Among Gerrard's legal descendants, the eldest son Kane has a better reputation because he is weak and has a little more conscience than his black-hearted father. And judging by the standards of the heir of a giant monopoly group, conscience means a pustule.To make matters worse, according to the primogeniture system popular in mainland China, Kane's inheritance rights are undisputed. Once this pustule comes to power, the family fortune will be completely ruined in less than 40 years;

The second son, Jota, was naughty and good at fighting. Because of the pronunciation of his name (Jota), people gave him the nickname JoJo. Unlike his elder brother, he was impacted by new ideas and actually sat on his buttocks. On the civilian side, he has a rebellious spirit towards his family. If Shinra Company falls into his hands, it will probably fail even faster.

Because the successor is incompetent, as long as Gerald is eliminated, the Concern Group he created will collapse. This period of time is enough for Heizhen's friends to graduate from the girls' school, and Heizhen's wish will be fulfilled.

As for what will happen to this girls' school, what will happen to Orleans, and what will happen to Shinra Company, Fourier doesn't care, and neither does Kurosada.

Gerald used sinful and bloody methods to accumulate astonishing wealth, but the two sons he gave birth to were both useless. This is a common thing in the world. Stern and strong parents will have a high probability of having weak offspring, just because of their brilliance. It was too dazzling and completely destroyed the talents of future generations.

While Fourier sketched the analytical equation of heat with his fingers on the wall, he observed the Gerrard family and watched them turn in his direction, probably because the sun was making them dizzy and wanted to cool off.

Entering the corridor were Gerard's family and three bodyguards, two of whom were holding pistols, and the other was carrying a sword as tall as his body. The man with a unique painting style was the first to see him standing in the center of the corridor. Fourier, and people who are on guard.

At that time, Fourier did not carry an eye-catching weapon box. He only had a roll of posters in his hand, which was to promote the performance of "Thunderstorm" by the drama department of the girls' school.

On the drama club's list, he saw the names of Hei Zhen and his neighbor Phoenix. The former was in charge of doing odd jobs, or in other words, taking care of these rookies like a mother, while the latter was the heroine of the drama, playing a character who cannot fall in love with someone. The tragic woman of the man.

The overlapping shadows of Gerald and the six slaves controlled by Gerald were crawling on the ground, slowly approaching Fourier.The fake lawyer took off his gold-rimmed glasses and put them into his vest pocket. Just now, his previous doubts were answered.

At the same time, Gerald also noticed Fourier.

The King of Orleans walked around with a cane, and his cane was engraved with the sacred formulas of electromagnetism. When these formulas were fully operated to extract the energy stored in the alloy core in the cane's sandwich, it was enough for him to briefly reappear the power of the God of Thunder in the mythical story. .

Of course, the only disadvantage of good things is that they are expensive. If it were Fourier, he would have to work around the clock for about 300 years before he could buy an artificial artifact.

The meaning of hard work is to shorten or even surpass the 300-year distance on specific occasions.

For example at this moment.

Gerald's footsteps echoed in the corridor, and Fourier watched him stop at a subtle distance, one sword step away, which was the most threatening killing radius for a skilled swordsman.

Even at this moment, Fourier was just holding a roll of paper in his hand.

Chapter 6 Broken Rose·Start

Time froze at this moment, Fourier and Gerald saw each other, and everything else turned into a gray background.Mrs. Gerard's melancholy, the eldest son Kane's curiosity, the second son Ruota's rebellion, the three bodyguards' nervousness... These were all regarded as irrelevant by Fourier, and the same was true for Gerard.

The young man's hand tightened the end of the scroll, as if he really held a sword in his hand.

What broke the confrontation was the sound of footsteps not far away. The two men looked sideways at the same time. Felix and Heizhen were walking side by side. They were also shocked when they saw Fourier and Gerald in the same frame.

The moment he saw Heizhen, Gerard's momentum wavered. If this was a duel between swordsmen, then every flaw Gerard revealed would be enough for Fourier to kill him three times.

At the moment, Gerald's guards moved their steps and used their bodies to accurately seal their master's flaws, making the Shinra Company's flag bearer (boss) invulnerable again.

So far.

After making this judgment, the young man took out his gold-rimmed glasses from his vest pocket and put them on again. The spots of sunlight remained on the glasses, blocking the window of the soul behind the lenses.Fourier stepped aside, and Gerald also took steps, but his eyes stayed on Heizhen, and a sad breath came to his face.

It turns out that this great villain, who is hated by many, also has the weak emotion of sadness.

Gerald's eldest son Kane looked at Phoenix tenderly, and Phoenix also smiled at Kane; the second son Ruota first looked at Phoenix happily, and then looked at his brother jealously; and Mrs. Gerrard, that The sickly Portuguese young woman looked at Phoenix with resentment. If the distance was closer, maybe she would rush over and perform the triple combo of pulling hair, tearing ears, and scratching skin.

It was only when Gerald's family passed by Fourier that they looked at this "inconspicuous" passerby lawyer with doubts. Kane smiled kindly at Fourier, and Ruota lifted Fourier up and down. After reading it once, the Portuguese young woman, whose soul had withered, took Fourier into her eyes and became one with the scenery of the school building.

The existence of evil things mixed into the human body, the existence of selling souls for money, the existence of cowardice and selfishness, the existence of passionate but reckless existence, the existence of living as if dead... When their figures completely wiped out Fu After Li Ye, the young man left the corridor with the poster and said hello to Heizhen and her female companion.

Phoenix said with a smile: "We have been preparing for the play "Thunderstorm" for a long time. Mr. Strife must come to see it then."

"Definitely if there is a chance." Fourier nodded and replied.

He then left on the pretext of official business.It wasn't until the afternoon that he appeared in Heizhen's coffee shop. By that time, the customers and employees had all left. The proprietress who ran the offline business casually pulled out a chair and sat down, crossing her arms in front of her chest and looking at The young man took out the boiled chicken and started to eat it again. His poor look made her... laugh.

"Where's your money-making ability, Mr. Lawyer?" she said with a mocking tone.

Fourier quietly took out a few cans with strange words on them, crystals with high-energy reactions, chemical materials with questionable uses, and a first aid kit. He introduced: "I went to visit some friends today. Krypton Gold I have replaced some good things, including nutrients that can quickly restore physical strength, charging crystals, explosive raw materials that can blow up the entire Shinra Building if used properly, and things to treat wounds."

"You have a lot of friends, and being glib isn't all a bad thing."

"There are many friends, many paths. As an operator, a very important skill is to 'make friends out of nothing'. You must make use of the environment where friends are available, and you must also use the environment where there are no friends to create friends. This is the same as learning. A truth..."

Before Fourier started to persuade him again, the client waved her hand and said: "Very good, it seems that you have made up your mind to fight. The operators I paid so much for that weird woman are not for free." Come around and talk dirty to me every day."

? ? ? Miss Alter, it seems that you are still in a state of prostitution for free, as a six-star operator.Fourier thought.

"I have always believed that dealing with Gerrard is the best solution to the trouble he caused," the young man said. "If I say before, I was still thinking about whether I could deal with him rationally and through legal means. ... This innocent thought disappeared after I saw him.

That is a monster. His history of fortune cannot be that he got ten tons of gold from the witch of gold.I saw mourning and death flowing through Gerald's body. Combining the information you provided, it is very likely that he deliberately caused an accident in his early years and sacrificed 2300 lives at once to gain the power to subvert common sense and surround him. With an aura like a black rose.

Orleans has become this monster's pasture, and every moment he drinks blood and grows stronger.In the battle between humans and humans, I only need to follow the entrustment of my employer and follow my own emotional actions. In the battle between humans and monsters, justice requires me to go all out. "

"Justice? I didn't expect you to have such boring principles. Really, I had a little crush on you just now, and now I'm back to the starting point."

Heizhen held her chin and wrapped her hair around her fingers in boredom. Her face was blurred by the moisture on the table. She said casually: "Anyway, it's a good thing for me that you have the will to fight. You hug me." Whether it is an act of justice or a personal grudge, everything will be ravaged by power in the end, turning the surroundings into a miserable hell.

For me, that's enough. "

Hei Zhen stretched, and Fourier, who was devouring the boiled chicken, felt the girl's slender calf stretched out to touch his trouser leg, and then quickly retracted it, leaving a soft feeling.

Inadvertent physical contact occurs. Is this proof that both parties are building trust?Fourier thought.

In fact, he quite wanted to peel off this girl's shell of hatred and become friends with the real Jeanne d'Arc Alter wrapped inside.

To do this, he must break the rose (Gerald)

At the same time, Gerard had returned to the No. 15th floor of the Shinra Building, where he worked, ate, and entertained. The large glass curtain wall allowed him to overlook the scenery of Orleans City without any hindrance.

He was having dinner while listening to the conclusions of his men's investigation about Fourier. First, this layer of skin of Claude Strife was peeled off, and the name of Baptiste Fourier was restored.

"Of course, we know that this is not his real name, but the name he got after working in the store that can grant all wishes." The intelligence director reported to the boss: "The store that can grant all wishes, and the origin witches It is also taboo. The industry and even ordinary people know the existence of this store, but no one can prove it.

Whenever that store wants to fulfill a customer's wish, it will follow a rare spirit of contract, seemingly not understanding that betrayal is the advanced form of contract, and interpreting faith without understanding the style.In view of this situation, I personally judge that we cannot neutralize the threat of Baptiste Fourier to you through bribery...if your Excellency is sure that he is coming for you. "

Gerald cut off a piece of lamb chop seasoned with milk, onions and garlic and put it into his mouth. He chewed it a few times and swallowed it whole. He stared at the intelligence director with his gray-blue eyes and said: "I am very sure that the swordsman wants to I have experienced the momentum displayed when killing people more than once. The point is, your work is not paid based on the number of words. "

The boss's words reminded the intelligence chief of the rumor that Gerald had been married to the Sword Witch in his early years. The Sword Witch was a person with natural abilities who integrated the skills of swords into his blood. It can also be said to be a natural swordsman.

And since he followed the boss, no swordsman has ever been able to walk up to the boss alive and draw his sword to release his murderous intention... Thinking about it this way, it was the Sword Witch who made Gerald understand the swordsman's killing intention. ?

"Following your instructions, I visited Mino Raiola, the most famous underground intelligence dealer." the intelligence chief said.

"Is that the 'vampire' who, if he holds exclusive information worth 100 million, can get an extra 100 million from the customer when the final deal is made?" Gerald waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, all the troubles can be solved with money. It’s not a problem, I’m just worried that he doesn’t like money.”

"Yes, I used the information exchanged from Raiola at the limit of my authority. The real name of Baptiste Fourier is unknown. He claimed to be 20 years and 6 months old, but five years ago he was the first He was already this age when he first fulfilled people's wishes as a tool of the Dimensional Witch.

Before he was 20 years old, there was no information, as if he suddenly appeared in this world.

He possesses three abilities. The first is called 'Transformation', which is said to be related to his real name. Its function and principle are unknown;

The second ability is 'Oath'. Fourier made seven oaths to a certain character, in exchange for seven bindings, and got something in exchange, but it is not yet known whether it will be used in battle;

The third ability is his swordsmanship, which belongs to the Alsaid style but is different. Whenever he uses it, his pupils will turn red, a nightingale will appear on his clothes, and his heart will be pierced by the thorns of the sacred linden tree. , the weird scene where the blood dyes the white rose crimson, this is not reflected in other Alside-style swordsmen, and it may be related to the above two abilities.

Therefore, Raiola gave Fourier the codename "Red Rose". "

"Rose?"
