"Gayat, this time, have you found the clue?"

The old man sitting in the rocking chair looked at the sunshine outside the balcony and asked the question without looking back.

Gaiyat sighed as he walked into the room, walked around the long table, came to the window leading to the balcony, and stood next to old Hoffman: "No, I still can't find Camian Mi

Hajlovic."

"It's not that easy to find someone in this vast sea of ​​people. Speaking of which, you're getting old soon, haven't you given up yet?" The old man closed his eyes, seeming to be recharging his energy.

"Some things don't mean you can give up just because you are old." Gaiyat shook his head and sighed as he looked at the setting sun outside.

The old man and the middle-aged man were silent until the old man's cough broke the silence.

After coughing, the old man turned his head and looked at Gaiyat: "Gaiyat, who are you going to pass your mantle to, Marin or Maya?"

In response, Gaiyat just shook his head.

"...If possible, let my cursed career end with my death." He said: "I really don't want these two children to be hurt like me."

"If that's what you think, then you should go back and talk to Marin." After finishing speaking, Old Hoffman pulled up the blanket covering his legs.

………………

Maya was very happy. The small crossbow quiver and the equally small crossbow bag were hung on her waist. The little leopard girl jumped upstairs. Marin walked a little slower because he saw the old landlady opened the room.

Door.

"Good evening, madam." Marin said with a smile.

"Good evening, Marin." The old lady greeted Marin with a smile, and the bouquet in his hand made Marin a little curious: "Madam, this flower..."

"Go to the church to meet my husband." The old lady smiled, a little sad and sentimental.

Marin nodded and raised the small flat hat he was wearing: "Madam, be careful along the way."

"Don't worry, old lady, I'm not blind enough to see the road." The old lady closed the door with a smile, then turned and pointed behind Marin: "Come up quickly, don't keep little Maya waiting.

."

Marin turned his head and glanced behind him, and saw Maya standing at the top of the steps, smiling sheepishly.

"Madam, be careful." After saying that, Marin quickly walked up to the second floor, held Maya's hand, and watched the old lady walk out of the room.

"Where is the landlady going?" Maya asked.

Marin reached out and patted the little leopard on the head: "She, go meet someone very important to her."

"Is it so important that you need to go out at night?" Little Leopard Girl frowned and asked, "It's not very peaceful in the city recently."

"Well, I think so, that must be someone who is more important to her than life." After Marin finished speaking, he led Maya back home.

Her father was busy in the kitchen, and Maya ran over happily, and then quickly returned to Marin: "Dad called you, brother."

So Marin took off his coat and put on home clothes and followed his sister over.

Putting down the kitchen knife in his hand, Guyat patted Maya's little head and motioned for Marin to follow him to the living room.

Returning to the living room, the middle-aged man sat on the sofa and motioned for Marin to sit on the chair opposite him.

"Old Hoffman told me all your recent affairs." He said straight to the point.

So Marin nodded: "Yes, is there any problem, father."

"It's a good thing to have a detective dream, my child, but in the final analysis, there are some dangers that you should not touch now. I can even say that, you can seek your own death, because everyone has their own ambitions, but you cannot put your sister

It's also a dead end, you know." Marin's adoptive father was not angry when he said this, but said it in a serious and thoughtful tone.

"Yes, father, I understand." Marin also replied with a serious face - he had already keenly felt the fact that his skills were inferior to others from Mr. Michel's battle with the werewolf. Extraordinary, even if only

The eighth step is also an existence beyond the reach of the apprentices on the tenth step.

"Although I am very angry, I have to admit that you adapt well to changes. The most important thing is that you make good use of your appearance. No one will take a child's detective dream seriously. Well done, my little one.

Detective." The old man stretched out his hand and patted Marin on the head: "But no matter what, you have to remember that danger always comes uninvited, and you have to stay away from danger."

Marin nodded seriously: "I understand, father."

Next, the father and Marin reviewed Marin's recent reconnaissance work in detail and confirmed that Mr. Michel did have a problem, but as Colin said, without evidence, there is nothing.

"Colin is right, kid, you don't have any evidence right now to prove that he is the murderer who drove his wife to death, and you are not his opponent, so my personal suggestion is to suspend your dreams first and wait until you grow up.

When you are strong enough, then think about completing today’s vow.”

"Yes, father, no problem." Marin nodded.

"I'm going out again tomorrow, this time going north to Pitts Harbor. I'm tracking someone, so..." "Maya needs me to take care of her again."

"Yes." The middle-aged man pursed his lips: "You are his brother, take good care of her, you know."

"I will." Marin nodded and glanced at the kitchen: "Father."

"Huh?" Gaiyat hummed, then looked at his adopted son.

"I will work hard to become stronger." Marin looked at the similar people in front of him and said seriously.

"...Then I'll wait and see, kid." His adoptive father replied with a smile.

………………

Gaiyat got on the passenger ship heading north early the next morning, and Marin and Maya went to see him off.

"Daddy is leaving again." Little Leopard Girl was a little unhappy as usual.

But this time, her unhappiness lasted a little short. Soon, the little leopard walked up to Marin, jumping happily, as if leading Marin to church.

"Hi, Marin." A carriage followed Marin, and Faye's little head poked out of the window: "How did you get over from the port?"

"Our father is going out again." Marin said truthfully. At the same time, he noticed that Margaret seemed to be sitting in the gap of the car window: "What about you, don't you all live in the church?"

"My sister's father and I came yesterday." The little girl was a little happy and seemed to be praised.

She turned back and said something in rapid Northern dialect, then opened the door and jumped out of the carriage with Margaret's slightly embarrassed smile.

Although the carriage is very slow, its strength is worthy of that of an elf hybrid - the last time Marin saw an unlucky guy jump out of the carriage, he hooked it and almost fell to death.

The girl seemed to have endless topics to talk about today. She was chatting with Marin about some issues related to the announcement work, and then she was discussing with Marin how to sell pharmaceutical products faster and better. Ma Lin replied

It was a bit perfunctory until this person asked a somewhat serious question: "Marin, do you want to become a transcendent?"

"Of course." Marin nodded, then asked with a smile: "What? Do you have any channels?"

"Hey, haven't you heard? The formal apprenticeship selection will start next month, just a week later." Faye blinked her big beautiful eyes: "I want to become an apprentice, because in that case

, I will have the opportunity to become as powerful as my sister in the future."

...Don't be stupid, girl, your sister is still a trainee pastor on the ninth ladder, following Colin all day long. If you want to be like her, your parents will be angry to death.

After finishing complaining, Marin smiled and nodded: "I think you will be more powerful than your sister."

The softest knife in the world is the mouth that praises others.

"Thank you, but what about you, Marin? Do you also want to become a priest like me?"

Priest is the title of all the basic extraordinary professions in the church. The only difference between priests is their faith and the camp represented by the faith, such as the goddess of harvest. This will make Colin completely have no idea of ​​burning fields and barns.

"I, to be honest, I really have a hard time choosing." This is Marin's truth. Speaking of which, as an atheist, Marin can be said to be on pins and needles in the recent period, but he

He still doesn't want to believe in these gods, because he believes that every god in this world is just a more powerful creature.

"Why?" Fazi was very curious.

"Because I feel that the priesthood is not very suitable for me." Marin gave an explanation: "And I heard that if you want to become an extraordinary existence, you must become the kind of person represented by the extraordinary profession."

This sentence was said by Guyat to Marin. He also said that the reason why he explained it this way was because he was afraid that without explanation, Marin would suffer a loss when he went out.

Marin could only say that this old father really cared about his adopted son and daughter. For fear that neither of them could explain it well, the adopted son went to practice the Sunflower Book, while the adopted daughter plunged into the Tomb of the Living Dead.

Please, old man, can you not think of me as a fool? The trick of turning anything into a superman by just cutting it can only fool those children.

With this thought, Marin gave the girl a smile: "However, I will work hard to become an apprentice. After all, no matter what, being an apprentice is the ladder to becoming extraordinary, isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, let me become an apprentice together when the time comes." The girl said.

Marin also nodded - anyway, Marin has never been afraid of ordinary examinations. During the period of studying in the church, Marin was really not panicked about examinations under ordinary circumstances.
