Lorenzo has some understanding of the rules of his life. Either he is idle, he is slowly fermenting and oxidizing in the office, consuming a long time, or all the things are piled together, and his tossing hovered between life and death.

The carriage is fast, galloping on the streets of Old Turin, and you can see the rapidly changing scenery through the gaps in the windows of the car, and sometimes you can also see the patrolling “riot suppressors”.

Compared with other cities, Old Turin is obviously becoming more and more strange. Advanced technology and various systems put this city under strict protection inside, and now with the arrival of Nine Summers , This weird city is bound to usher in new changes.

In a slightly narrow space, Lorenzo sits opposite Seleu, next to Oscar.

Seleu is still as simple and indifferent as usual, as if nothing can affect her mood, Oscar looks younger for several years, his face is red light, Lorenzo has not seen this guy so spirited for a long time Up.

Recall carefully the last time Lorenzo saw Oscar like this, when he was in school, when Lorenzo went to the class, and after class, he sometimes sat in a daze by the flowerbed.

Lorenzo was still a detective at the time, and the so-called Nail sword was buried inside the grave by him.

The first communication between Lorenzo and Oscar happened at that time. While Lorenzo was enjoying the warm daylight, Reverend, who had just taught himself, approached and sat with himself by the flower bed.

“youngster, I understand very well.”

With one mouth, Oscar said something inexplicable.

Lorenzo looked at the Old Guy suspiciously, only to see him laughing hehe, looking towards the students who passed by in a hurry.

“It’s nice to be young, not to mention the youngsters in midsummer.”

The hot summer made white dresses everywhere in the line of sight. They were flowing in front of the two of them, as if they were inside the sea of ​​skirts, and Oscar was the rotten fish wandering freely in the sea of ​​skirts.

Oscar smiled slyly, but Lorenzo didn’t understand what he meant at all.

Lorenzo was a very leisurely guy at the time. When he was not working, he was a vagrant who needed all kinds of things to pass the time. The reason why he was in a daze in front of the flower bed was just to pick a good place to kill time. .

“So, what’s the matter with you? You are in the sea of ​​skirts again? But it’s winter now, but no one shows you in a skirt with white legs.”

Thinking of these not too bad memories, Lorenzo teased.

“No, that’s just relaxing… Now there is a big event to be announced.”

Oscar may be too excited, and the words seem a little at a loss.

“Huh?” Lorenzo couldn’t understand what he was talking about, “make it clear.”

“no no no, this kind of major event needs to be announced on a more serious occasion.”

“Then what did you tell me to get in the car?”

The two quarreled, and just then, Seleu said without emotion.

“I will succeed Oscar Wilde as the next nation builder.”

The quarrel in the car stopped for a moment. Lorenzo and Oscar both looked shocked, but the reasons for their shock were completely different.

“Are you going to replace this old bastard?”

“Why should such a major event be announced in the carriage!”

The quarrel sounded again, if it weren’t for the narrow carriage, the two might have started fighting.

This feels a bit bad, Seleu felt like a group of zhi zhi ya ya yelling crows in her ears, endless and endless.

Fortunately, the carriage finally stopped and they arrived at their destination.

It is Stuart’s mansion. Although it hasn’t been here for a long time, it doesn’t seem to have changed much here.

Old steward had already stood by the door waiting for the return of several people. When the car door opened, Seleu and Oscar walked out, and then a guest who was no longer expected appeared.

He looked confused, as if he had been dragged from the bed as soon as he woke up. He could see that his collar was still caught under his clothes, and he was not ready at all.

“Lorenzo Holmes!”

Old steward saw this damn face, immediately his blood pressure came up.

Seleu just said that she was going to pick up Oscar in person. No one thought that she would pick up such a thing on the way back.

“Oh oh oh! long time no see!”

Lorenzo did not feel old steward’s dislike for him at all, and waved hello.

“Why did you bring him also.”

Old steward whispered to Seleu.

After realizing that he could not stop all of this, old steward chose not to see and not to be bothered, so he and Lorenzo had not seen each other for a long time, and they got together again today.

“On the way, and there are some things later, he will be used, it is better to call him in advance.”

Seleu probably didn’t notice Old Steward’s emotions either, she asked, “Yahweh, how are you?”

Old steward could only bear the pain nodded, and signaled Seleu not to worry too much, and then invited Lorenzo into the house with a gloomy expression.

Speaking of, Lorenzo has a kind of psychedelic feeling all day, first the Red Eagle who came to visit, then Seleu, and Oscar.

Seleu arranged Lorenzo and Oscar in the living room, and she didn’t know what to do, leaving them with big eyes staring at small eyes, and there was a short silence. Both seemed to be thinking about whether to continue the carriage. Quarrel.

After a long while, Lorenzo broke the calm.

“What do you think, you want Seleu to replace you?”

The job of building a country is not easy, even said to be dangerous, Lorenzo can’t understand why Oscar does this.

“It’s not my idea, it’s the girl’s idea. After returning to Old Turin, she came to me.”

Facing Lorenzo, Oscar didn’t have to hide anything, and he couldn’t hide anything. Oscar knew Lorenzo’s abilities.

“She seemed to have made all the plans at the time, and told me about the pros and cons, and let me consider it.”

There were only Oscar and Lorenzo in the empty meeting room. He was very frank and told these things that shouldn’t be told.

“She first fiercely damaged me, saying that I was an old bastard who was about to retire. It was useless except for writing some books that no one liked. She felt that I was not worthy of the duty of building a country.” [19459002 ]

Lorenzo’s expression was a little stiff, “I don’t think Seleu can say such things.”

“Almost, almost, about that,” Oscar added salt and jealously, “Anyway, I should step down, at least find a successor before leaving.”

Oscar seemed to have a deep resentment for Seleu’s words at the time, “She said that I, a lonely Old Guy like me, should one day slip in the bathroom and hit the ground with one head, just breathe one’s last… [ 19459002]

The dignified country builder just died, no matter how you think it is wrong.

Maybe no one will notice when I die. Anyway, I don’t have many friends. No one will come to visit me. Maybe I won’t realize it until my neighbor smells the smell of my corpse. “

Oscar complained endlessly.

“Then she recommended herself. Seleu has learned the secrets of the world, has seen Demon, and killed a few with a knife. She is so young, and she is the Duke of the Stuart family, with huge benefits behind her. Group…

She thought she couldn’t be more suitable. “

“Then you promised her?” Lorenzo asked.

“How is it possible! She hurt me so badly, could I promise her?”

Oscar was full of grievances, but Lorenzo felt that what Seleu said was definitely not the same thing as Oscar.

“But the place you are staying now is the Stuart’s mansion, and the road still said that you want to announce this… You still agreed.” The more I listened to Oscar’s complaints, the more Lorenzo felt that Oscar who appeared here was very different. funny.

“I guess Seleu made a offer you can’t refuse.” Lorenzo said.

Oscar thought for a while. The whole person was like a puffed ball, completely collapsed into the chair, sighing, and his sigh was full of resentment for the powerful and such a trace of…envy.

“No way, she gave too much.”

Oscar said embarrassedly.

“You really sold the position of country builder!”

Lorenzo shook, and Oscar couldn’t believe a word of it.

“Oscar, you are simply the worst country builder!”

“What should I do! I always need a successor. Since the respected Stuart Young Lady is so enthusiastic, it is not impossible to entrust this important mission to her!”

Oscar shouted shamelessly.

The two yelled at each other for a while, and then fell into peace again. Lorenzo rubbed his head vigorously. He didn’t know for a moment whether he should think about why Seleu did this, or reflect on how the guy Oscar got involved. Of the country.

He glanced at Oscar, he couldn’t understand how this guy who lived a life of failure got such a duty.

“So… how did she move you?” Lorenzo asked.

“The Stuart family will unconditionally support my creation, and the headlines of “Queen’s Daily” will also be used to promote my work.”

“That’s it?”

“That’s it.”

“Oscar, you bastard!”

Lorenzo couldn’t think of it. Seleu bought Oscar with these conditions. He knew what Oscar was like. Lorenzo should have let him die because of some accident, or live in a nursing home as soon as possible.

The two yelled at each other for a while and sat exhausted in the chair. Lorenzo only felt a headache. The joy of the Holy Silver mine was mixed by Oscar.

“Lorenzo, you have to understand that for an author, there is nothing more worthwhile than seeing my story by more people.” Oscar was still stiff.

Lorenzo didn’t bother to reprimand any more, after all, he had no right to interfere with this.

“But speaking of which “Demon Hunter” was forced to end. Oscar said slowly.

“What’s that again?”

Lorenzo began to feel that Oscar felt helpless, and he hated it.

“I told you before, the novel based on the Demon Hunter person, unfortunately, I was targeted by the cleansing agency, and the story was forced to end before it was finished,” Oscar eccentric said. ” Just the last volume,’you’ is about to come to an end.”

“Oh? What will my ending be.”

Loren didn’t know what Seleu was going to do, and didn’t know how long he would have to wait. Hearing Oscar talk about this, he became a little interested.

Although Oscar’s writing is very third-rate, some people still like it, and Lorenzo has seen some before.

“You were impoverished and died in a dark and damp alley.”

Oscar said bluntly, but looking at Lorenzo’s expression, it seemed that he would be violent and hurt in the next second, he shouted quickly.

“It’s not just you!”

“Huh?”

Oscar slowly said, “Actually, the endings of my characters are almost the same, they all end in a perfect tragedy.”

Seeing Oscar’s intoxicated look, Lorenzo said with a look of disgust.

“I seem to know why your book is not popular anymore.”

“I know, I know,” Oscar continued, “When I was young, I liked tragedy very much. Joy is all the same, only sadness, all kinds of strange things, deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.”

“I disdain to write good endings that are similar to the mainstream. Only sadness can make people impressed.”

“Yes, your impoverishment is quite impressive.”

Lorenzo’s words made Oscar look embarrassed for a while, and he didn’t know how to continue.

“I am going to continue my creation after handing over the builders of the country. I like to first conceive an ending for writing. I haven’t figured out the ending yet.”

“Write another sad ending, and then be scolded by readers?”

Lorenzo speaks viciously, he has a masterful mentality.

This time Oscar didn’t refute loudly. He looked straight ahead and said softly.

“No, this time I want to write a… a softer ending.”

“How?”

“Probably it was a change of mentality. When I was young, I felt that tragedy was very cool. I felt that the protagonist should die so handsomely. As a result, I was hit badly with many teeth knocked out by reality. , Can only be used for heating in winter.”

Oscar said and shook his head. It seemed that in his failed life, there were so many bad memories.

“I now feel that… the gentle and cliché ending is actually good and cool. Life is already terrible. People should have something beautiful to sustenance and warm their hearts.”

Oscar said looking towards Lorenzo and asked.

“What do you think?”

“It’s not that I wrote the book, what use do I think?” Lorenzo said, “but it sounds good, the reality is terrible, people should have something beautiful to comfort themselves.”

Perhaps because of Lorenzo’s understanding, Oscar smiled and was immersed in his own ideas inside.

Lorenzo is also sighed, and to be honest, he and Oscar are quite depressive.

In fact, he also wanted to complain about Oscar’s extremely irresponsible behavior, but when he saw his slightly stubborn eyes, Lorenzo felt that there was no need to say anything.

Lorenzo knows many people who are so stubborn. They can be stubborn to death for certain things, just like their ultimate creed.

The creed of Secret Protectors is to continue civilization, the creed of Plague doctor is the truth, Frocki’s is the chart, and Oscar’s seems to be his creation.

Such things could not be persuaded by words, and Lorenzo gave up wittily.

He also looked forward to what kind of ending Oscar would write.

After all, Lorenzo is one of Oscar’s few readers.
