Calamity Crown
Chapter 44 The So-Called Secret
The Wayne family secret?
Goethe frowned secretly, but moved forward.
It's not that I don't believe it.
On the contrary, Goethe genuinely believed that Sheila might have discovered some secrets that he did not know.
As the "only" survivor of the Wayne family, Goethe knew that his previous "self" was well protected, and there were many things he didn't know-in fact, according to the memories he saw, not only Goethe For generations, Goethe's parents, uncles, aunts, and aunts have completely left the "supernatural world", otherwise, his "aunt" would not have suffered such a tragedy.
Perhaps in the entire 'Wayne family', only his grandfather knew something.
But his grandfather was tight-lipped.
Maybe he would tell his 'father' or some 'uncle' or 'aunt' at some point, but the sudden death disrupted everything.
The 'secret' of the Wayne family was completely covered up.
Goethe, who was the 'only' survivor of the Wayne family, naturally felt sorry for this.
However, this does not mean that he will choose to 'cooperate' with Shira!
That's right!
It is cooperation!
The other party appeared in front of him and said a 'secret'. Naturally, because of this 'secret', it was necessary to cooperate with him in order for the other party to gain something.
Beyond that, Goethe couldn't think of anything else.
And then it proved that Goethe's conjecture was correct——
"Goethe, don't you want to know what secret I have discovered?"
Qian La picked up the corner of her skirt with her hands, and walked quickly in front of Goethe, blocking Goethe's way, with a kind of joy flashing in her emerald green eyes.
even……
Still a little excited.
After seeing such gazes, Goethe didn't want to have anything to do with the woman in front of him.
Because, experience back home told him, when a woman looks at you like that, you're in trouble.
And if this woman is still very beautiful, then the trouble is fatal.
He already has too much trouble now, and he doesn't want to cause more trouble at all.
certainly!
The most important thing!
Goethe didn't trust the other party!
Beautiful women are the most deceiving!
In his hometown, what Zhang's mother said was still fresh in Goethe's memory.
After all, the top card of a garden club may be good-looking or sing well, but it is absolutely impossible to have that kind of skill.
And that weapon!
It's not normal either, there will never be a direct confrontation, it can only happen to one kind of person...
assassin!
An assassin disguised as the head of the club, just thinking about it, Goethe knew that he should stay away from him.
so--
"In no mood!"
Goethe said with certainty.
After speaking, he bypassed Shira and continued forward.
However, Sheila stood in front of Goethe again, her figure was light and her skirt fluttered like a butterfly. The head of the garden club looked at Goethe's young and handsome face, and at the pair of hidden sharp eyes. With her eyes, looking at the calmness that did not match her age at all, and feeling the special temperament formed by these mixtures, she suddenly laughed.
Sweet smile as always.
Then, she used her fan to block herself in front of her, blocking the sight of the surrounding people watching here, and a low voice came slowly——
"Of course you don't want to."
"because……"
"You know the secret well, don't you?"
"My respected guardian and successor of the 'Mad King's Treasure'."
'Mad King's Treasure'?
Goethe narrowed his eyes.
This was the first time he heard the term.
However, this reaction misunderstood Shila.
There was a touch of affirmation in the emerald green eyes full of joy and excitement.
Then……
It's scrutiny!
It was a scrutiny that seemed to see Goethe through.
In fact, Sheila has been full of curiosity about Goethe these two days.
After that unsuccessful return, more and more information was collected in her hands, and she was surprised to find that this big boy who seemed to have just grown up in front of her had not only disturbed the "Murder in the Mist" several times plan, and killed more than one Transcendent.
More importantly, the other party acted meticulously and cruelly.
It's not like a big boy who has just grown up.
Instead, it looked like some veterans she had come into contact with.
No!
Even some veterans are rare.
Therefore, Shira is very sure that the Goethe in front of her is the last guardian and heir of the secret of the "Wayne House"—the grandfather of the other party has given everything to Goethe in front of her.
And Goethe did not disappoint that grandfather.
But it wasn't good news for her.
Because, the heir in front of him is really excellent.
In general, it's hard to get what she wants out of it.
but!
Right now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
The Keeper who came to help is dead.
She had heard a little about Puli's reputation, and she never thought that Puli would be killed so easily by another guy's subordinates.
She didn't feel sorry, though.
On the contrary, she should be more happy.
Because, the situation after Puli's death was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her.
Goethe...
Lack of support!
She is well aware of this.
Therefore, she couldn't wait, and immediately came to Goethe.
"Do you want to cooperate?"
"Pulli is dead, and the Keeper is unlikely to have reinforcements in a short time—that guy is a bastard, but he is good at hiding. I haven't caught his tail until now, and the 'Church of Flesh' That group of idiots, being played around by that guy, thought that the situation in Lust was under their control, so those idiots had already planned to do things in several cities around Lust. I was completely attracted to the past, and there will be no reinforcements in a short time!"
"So, now, in Luster, there are only you, the seriously injured Morey, and the equally seriously injured Mrs. Burns!"
"And the three of you are no match for that guy!"
"You know, that guy's allies are pretty scary!"
"But, to add my words..."
"But it can turn the tide of the battle!"
Sheila said softly.
Goethe did not answer, but stared at Shira with both eyes.
It seems to be asking Shira why she knows so much.
Even though Sheila is the head of the Garden Club, and the Garden Club is a well-informed place, the news in front of her has already exceeded the range that the other party can grasp.
Is it like an assassin's intelligence network?
Moreover, turning the tide of battle...
The other party speaks with certainty.
Is there any hole card?
Still have any help?
Goethe pondered, his eyes became sharper.
"Oh, don't look at people like this, they will be shy."
Facing Goethe's gaze, Sheila lowered her head, and a blush really appeared on her face.
As if he didn't want Goethe to see his shy appearance, the head of the garden club once again covered his face with a fan, only showing a pair of eyes to look at Goethe.
Clear and bright, without a trace of panic.
The sound was even more like a mosquito, only Goethe standing in front of him could hear it.
"Get to know each other..."
"Sheila, owner of the Hunter Bar."
