The moment he heard this sound, Abbott's body suddenly tightened, and his seemingly old body was about to prey like a fierce cheetah. His expression was cold and murderous. However, there was a flash of guilty conscience and panic in his eyes, as if he was worried about being discovered.

　　 "Don't worry, it's me."

It seemed that he felt the undisguised hostility from Abbott. In order not to irritate the other party, so that he made some stupid actions, the dark voice came out again, but this time it was a little more real than before. , There is no such husky and dry jerky as mechanical.

　　 Hearing this, Abbott's tight body slowly relaxed, and his face was relieved a lot, as if he was relieved.

　　 However, if anyone could see the musculoskeletal and blood flow under Abbott's robe, then he would know that Abbott did not really relax his guard.

　　 Click.

　　 The power switch placed on the wall was turned on, and the lights in the house suddenly came on.

　　 pale white but yellowish, cold and warm light flooded the whole room in an instant, showing the scene unmistakably in front of the two of them.

　　 The spacious and simple bedroom does not have any extra dress, a small but very delicate, at first glance, a wooden bed made by a famous artist is leaning against the wall on the left hand side of the entrance.

　　 Next to the wall on the side of the door, there is a huge log-colored wardrobe.

　　 The bedroom is very large, so the passage is not narrow. Not far from the door, there is a simple coat rack.

At the end of 　　's bedroom, near the window, there is a bookshelf filled with various books and materials, and a desk used by the speaker for office reading.

　　 Although these two things look very simple, but from the smooth texture and extremely simple aesthetic design, you know that these two things are not as simple as they seem.

　　 Scattered books are placed on the desk, and around it there are also round-bellied mahogany fountain pens that have been closed with their caps. From these placements, it seems that Abbott leaned over the desk and worked hard.

　　 However, Abbott did not rush back to his seat.

　　Because, there were already unexpected visitors on the seat at this time, an old man with a hooked nose and a shameful face.

　　 He is wearing a solemn and solemn tuxedo. He is not very tall, but he unexpectedly feels stable.

　　 If anyone could see this scene where Abbott met this person, then he would be surprised and yell out.

After all, being able to see these two enemies of life and death who should have drawn their swords face each other in this kind of place, this kind of time. Fear is enough to shock anyone who knows.

　　Because he is one of the three major families in Dilno City. The contemporary patriarch of the Tierros family, Gallup Tierros, was also one of the existences who planned the death of Diels Augustus.

According to common sense, these two people should not have such a late-night meeting, because whether Abbott is loyal to Diels, Dalton, or the entire Augustus family, he should and The opponent's momentum is the same.

　　 After all, what the other party did was digging the foundation of the Augustus family.

　　 It's just that the development of facts did not proceed like common sense.

　　 Abbott, who recognized the caller, had a pale complexion and seemed a little unswerving, but he didn't rush to speak.

　　 Seeing this, Gallup stood up and greeted with a smile.

　　 "Long time no see, my friend."

　　 This kind of extremely sincere smile with a bit of enthusiasm could not help diluting the first impression of his face and alleviating the threat of the evil.

　　 However, for the other party's enthusiasm, Abbott seemed to have tasted something difficult to swallow. His complexion was not good and he saw the extreme, and said in a dull or even unwelcome tone.

　　 "Why are you here?"

　　 "The plan is about to come to the end, and this grand performance is about to usher in a climax. How can I not come at this critical time?"

　　 Hearing this, Abbott's expression worsened. A trace of shame and a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, as if inadvertently squinted, looking at Gallup.

　　 "I'm afraid it's more than that. If this were the case, Mr. Gallup would not have taken such a big risk to come to the Augustus family."

　　 Hearing Abbott’s unkind tone, Gallup didn’t get angry either, just smiled.

　　 "Of course, I hope you can help me control the entire Augustus family."

　　 "Impossible, we said at the beginning, I will help you find that thing, but you must give up on the Augustus family."

　　 Looking at Abbott who was so angry that he was like an irritated lion, Gallup suddenly laughed, his tone of sarcasm was indescribable.

　　 "Abbott, you have been with the Augustus family for so many years. Have you not understood these things yet?"

　　 "I have reached this point, do you think you have a choice?"

　　 Gallup's slender eyes were slightly raised, with some contempt.

　　 He didn't say any extra words, nor did he make any threats, he just took a sudden step, walked from the desk to Abbott, and looked directly at Abbott's eyes.

　　 Gallup circled in front of Abbott with great interest, not hurriedly or slowly, as if taking a walk after a meal.

　　 It's just that the footsteps seemed to be on his heart, making his heart beat violently.

　　 Abbott’s squinted eyes suddenly opened, and his sharp gaze directed at Gallup’s narrow and narrow eyes, full of blazing anger.

　　 Gallup, who had just walked around in front of Abbott, chuckled, and looked at Abbott without evasiveness, his eyes deep, like a bottomless pool.

　　 "What do you want."

　　 After a while, Abbott finally narrowed his sharp gaze, lowered his head slightly, and asked tiredly.

　　 "It's very simple. Dalton was seriously injured. After drinking the potion that you added to him for so long, it's probably not a few days."

　　 "Dalton estimates that he himself feels that his time of death is approaching, so he has recently put pressure on you so urgently, seeking the back hand that Diels left behind, and the family heritage that has been transferred."

　　 "How do you know?"

　　 Abbott had listened to Gallup's words like his fate, and had no intention to speak, but after hearing the key points, he was still a little surprised.

　　 After all, the name Diels is a taboo in today's family. The old don't dare to mention it, and the young don't know it.

　　 And the fact that Dalton is looking for Diels's back is even more secretive to the extent that it can't be hidden. There are only a handful of people who know this, and it's basically an existence that Dalton can trust.

　　 But this is the case. Gallup Tierros had already learned of the news shortly after this incident happened, and Abbott had to think about the implications.

　　 It's just that Gallup didn't answer his meaning, he just glanced at the other person, and then went on without stopping.

　　 Abbott was upset and wanted to say something, but the next moment he came back to his senses. Now, what right does he have to be so angry.

　　Those who have betrayed the family certainly deserve a thousand cuts, but what's better for him.

　　 So, he just changed his face for a few moments, and then fell silent.

　　 Seeing Abbott as if surrendering, he stopped talking, Gallup's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and then continued.

"Although it’s not clear whether the Austin gang can come back before Dalton’s death or after his death, it doesn’t matter. He helped them in the face, but actually helped me plunder the property of the Augustus family."

　　 "By the way, this thing is for you."

　　 Gallup looked at Abbott who did not respond, and there was no unchanging look on his face.

　　 He put his hand into the pocket of the tuxedo and took out a ball that seemed to be engraved with dense and complex magic patterns.

　　 "What is this?"

　　 Abbott asked puzzledly.

　　His expression is much calmer than before, but his tone is still cold.

　　 "This thing can be regarded as a communication tool. Although only a few dozen words can be transmitted at a time, and the remaining number of uses is not much, it is enough."

　　 Gallup's eyes flashed an extremely rare expression of pain, and it seemed to be a little bit sad.

This made Abbott a little surprised. After all, as the patriarch of the Tierros family, one of the three major families in Dilno City, an earl who is considered a high-ranking figure in the empire, he has never seen anything. Never heard of it.

　　 But even so, the other party still showed that painful look when giving this thing. Based on this alone, Abbott knew that this thing was not simple.

　　 So, he swallowed the words that hadn't been asked. There was no foolish choice to question whether this little thing could pass through the circle in the Augustus family. Instead, he took it directly.

　　 Seeing this, although there was still some pain, Gallup nodded in satisfaction.

　　 Although this [Magic Ball] is a magic device from the last era obtained from the ruins, it can only be used in this way when it is impossible to analyze the reenactment.

　　 This kind of expensive consumable is a rare treasure even for the earl family.

　　 After all, this thing can be compared to some golden magic tools under certain circumstances. Gallup couldn't help but feel sad.

　　 However, as long as the goal can be achieved, no matter how much effort is made, there will be rich returns.

　　Thinking of the beautiful scene after the plan was successful, Gallup couldn't help feeling a little lost for a while, showing a look of yearning.

　　 "Well, everything goes according to the previous plan."

　　 "It's not a key message, don't contact me. After all, this thing has a limit on the number of times you can use it."

　　 Gallup told Abbott, and Abbott just nodded indifferently without any extra words.

　　 The next moment, Gallup wearing a black tuxedo seemed to be shrouded in shadows and turned into a phantom, disappearing in front of Abbott without attracting anyone's attention.

　　 Not only people, even the circle guarding the entire Augustus family did not respond.

　　 It seems that no outsider has disappeared from under its eyelids before.

　　 After seeing Gallup missing, the expression in Abbott's eyes gradually became warmer, and it was no longer the numb pupils that looked like death.

　　 He stood there for a long time, but in the end, he just let out a long sigh, walked towards the desk, and picked up the books, papers and pens scattered on the desk.

　　 The cold silver-white moonlight shines from the light-transmitting windows pouring into the room, mixing with the light that has not yet been turned off, and shining a shadow obliquely.

　　 The shadow of the desk and bookcase quietly appeared in the corner as always.

　　 It's just that, beside this still shadow, the usual straight figure is a bit curved at this time, as if it has aged a lot in an instant, with a bit of rickets.

　　……

　　 Liming calendar year 874, February 11th, afternoon.

　　 The sun shining on the earth all day also ushered in the dusk, and the falling sunset shed light on the aftermath, but it could not stop the advent of darkness.

　　 At this time, facing the sunset that was about to sink into the horizon, the steam train that Allen and the others rode also arrived at their destination.

　　 Feeling the slowing of the train below him, Alan's body shook like a jointed firecracker, making a popping sound, and moved his muscles and bones a little.

　　 Allen turned his head and looked out the window, as if enjoying the beauty of the setting sun.

　　 However, only he himself knows what he sees.
