Chapter 26. All beaten by Gaul

Levi stopped in place and looked at the injection in his hand. He could not return to Norman Manor now. If Melin did not spread the news, then his condition would be death.

The inability to find the body can be explained as jumping into the sea. Anyway, the people who jumped into the sea every day feed a large salvage team.

This injection is enough to show that Melin has set her sights on him from the beginning. In the final analysis, the problem lies in that extremely paradoxical robbery.

...

Four o'clock in the morning.

Queens.

Hal rubbed his sleepy eyes, opened the door, and put Levi in.

"Why are you here now?"

Logically speaking, Levi should have slept at Norman Manor and could not have come over overnight.

Li Wei took off her coat and hung it on the hanger, looked at the faint door, and asked, "She is still sleeping?"

"What else?" Hal went to the kitchen to pour Li Wei a cup of hot water. "She is still a child, she looks younger, and she is actually fourteen years old. She is sleepy and doesn't have to worry about survival."

"Four years old?"

Levi was a little surprised. Leah looked only eight or nine years old on the outside, but she was actually so different.

He couldn't help but say, "I'm not her dad."

"I agree, I don't think you can get an adult woman pregnant at the age of ten."

Hal sat opposite Levi, with his hands crossed on the table, and said carefully: "But this child likes you very much. In the words of your gods, you are destined to be."

Li Wei took a sip of hot water and whispered: "Fate is also a part of it."

Scream.

The door opened, the little girl stood at the door, looked at Hal, then looked at Li Wei, and said in confusion: "Dad?"

It seems that the cheap dad still has to continue playing.

Levi walked up to Leah, squatted down slowly, and said softly: "Did we disturb Leah?"

"No."

"Good boy, keep going to sleep, dad won't bother you."

"Um."

Lea turned back to the room, but she walked two steps, stopped again, blinking: "Will dad suddenly disappear?"

"Why, why did I disappear suddenly? Don't think so much, I'm always there."

"oh."

Levi pushed Leah gently, watched her lying on the bed, and covered her with a quilt, and whispered: "Good boy, go to bed."

Ten minutes later, Hal watched Levi walk out of the room and couldn't help but shake his head: "I began to suspect that this child is really your daughter."

"How is that possible," Levi picked up an expired newspaper and read it in a glance. "But isn't it human talent to take care of children?"

"I may not have the talent in this regard."

Li Wei didn't speak, and focused all his attention on one piece of news.

"The Pirate Queen from Outer Sea is approaching New York!"

The second page headline took a full page and was quite eye-catching.

Hal glanced at it and said: "The legend of the Pirate Queen has always been there, but I'm not sure which one it is. Many people suspect it is a fabricated drama character."

"But there are indeed pirates."

"As rumored, after the demise of Gaul, those who fled their country built warships that were coming and going, drifting on the ocean, vowing to retaliate against those countries that had attacked Gaul."

Levi turned a page and turned his eyes to other sections, and said while watching: "This kind of legend is suitable for being on the stage. It is a clichéd revenge story that attracts attention. New York needs such news."

Hal yawned: "Who knows, even if there are pirates, can they still fight against the Royal Fleet of Victoria? I'm going to sleep, where are you?"

Li Wei looked up at the sofa in the room and said, "You go back to the room, I'll sleep on the sofa."

"……good."

Hal got up and returned to the room. He lay on the bed and did not fall asleep immediately. Instead, he recalled what happened about Levi in ​​his mind.

Bruce is a strange person, so strange that Hal felt that he was too detached. If he was an ordinary speculator, he would probably not miss any chance to make a fortune. However, Bruce gave most of the money he earned and used it to improve his life.

Hal has never seen any kids, such as the Five Flags Association in the Immigration Area. Most kids will use work intensity beyond the understanding of Anken people to get better job opportunities, and even use some cunning means to get opportunities.

But Bruce is not such a person, he is too...decent.

In fact, when Hal said he was about to take a break, he was testing Bruce's idea, and the answers he could get were still beyond his expectations.

This two-bedroom and one-living apartment has a good environment, clean and hygienic, and the used furniture has been well maintained, which is quite livable and naturally has a lot of rent.

"He didn't take it at all, and didn't even ask for the room and the bed."

Hal found that forty-year life experience was useless, and he couldn't see through this young man.

...

early morning.

Li Wei opened his eyes and quickly got up from the sofa, and after falling asleep, he was energetic.

"Good morning, dad."

"Good morning."

Lea opened her eyes wide and asked, "Are Dad very busy today?"

"Is there any place Leah wants to go?"

Entertainment activities in this era are definitely not as fun as more than a hundred years later.

Hal took the little girl into the bathroom and shouted: "Leah wants to go to the circus and also wants to go on horseback, right, my little cutie."

Li Wei was not able to satisfy this wish for the time being, so Melin made an appointment to meet him in Brooklyn.

After saying goodbye to the two, Li Wei left the apartment and found the specific location according to the address provided by Melin.

It is a Sicilian bar that offers meals and entertainment.

"You're late."

The person near the window spoke.

Levi looked over and found that besides Melin and Susan, there was another person, Father Donne.

"Mr. Dorn is with us too? Oh, thank you."

The priest handed over an envelope containing 10 anles, today's overtime pay.

Melin picked up the cup and said, "To be precise, Dorn is in a cooperative relationship with us, and Rutland needs to know about this operation."

Li Wei smelled a trace of unusual meaning.

He asked, "What does it mean?"

"The threat Anken suffered may have something to do with the Gauls."

"Hasn't Gaul destroyed the country?"

Melin sighed: "Destroying the country does not mean that the Gauls no longer exists. Bruce, you are a smart person and you should understand what I mean."

Father Dorn smiled and said, "Bruce may not know something, I can help you answer. Corsica I once captured the last territory of the Knights of the Hospital and conquered the Rutland Palace."

This can explain.

Li Wei leaned back and narrowed his eyes. It turned out that these people had been beaten by Gaul, and they were a feud.
