Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

A few days later, Raphael Cemetery.

A light mist surrounds the forest of stone monuments, making the scene in the distance blurry, so that people walking here can only stare at the pain in front of them. Although there is no rain in the sky, the eyes of those attending the funeral always have lingering clouds of sadness. Their black clothes look like silhouettes through the fog, being pasted on the final act of the buried person's life.

Leonard, Dunn, Benson and Fry carried the coffin and placed it in the newly dug grave. Dunn's body has not fully recovered. There is a strange and extraordinary power remaining in him, which makes his recovery extremely slow.

But he still insisted on coming as a coffin bearer. Daly stood a few steps away, looking at Dunn sadly. He covered his mouth and coughed twice silently when no one was paying attention.

To a friend or family member buried six feet below, the pastor's eulogy and individual prayers are like watering a dead flower through glass.

Melissa half-crouched next to the grave that was starting to be filled, and threw the copper whistle and broken tassel knot that Klein always carried with him into it. She didn't know what significance these things had to Klein. I will never know from my brother.

Leonard gritted his teeth again. He became more and more determined in his decision to join the "Red Gloves" and mastered the acting method. He will definitely be able to climb higher and go further. He must become stronger and sacrifice for the innocent. Colleagues and others affected seek revenge.

After Melissa learned about Klein's death, she tensed up like this. She didn't cry or make a fuss, she just stayed silent and helped Benson prepare for all the follow-up matters.

Send your worrying, gentle and hard-working nerdy second brother to a cemetery where the deceased can sleep forever.

The grave pit was filled.

Melissa's friends Selena and Elizabeth were standing next to her. Elizabeth gently leaned her head in Melissa's ear. Her face was full of tears, and her baby-fat face looked extremely haggard.

Dunn glanced at the expressions of everyone present, and then he closed his eyes gently, not knowing what he was thinking. When Dai Li asked him in a low voice, Dunn just shook his head silently, saying that he was fine.

Three lines of words are engraved below the black-and-white photo of Klein Moretti and the dates of his birth and death, condensing the bitterest hearts of those who miss him deeply:

“The best brother;

the best brother;

Best colleagues ever. "

Most of the people attending the funeral had heavy faces, a few had tears on their faces, and some quietly comforted Melissa and Benson. The brother and sister nodded numbly, silently responding to these empty words of comfort. language.

Dunn's face was so gloomy that even the sun could not fall into his deep eyes. He never expected that it would end like this. He thought he had paid the price with his life to save Tingen, but he did not expect that someone would forcibly save him from death. He took it back from his hand.

Tingen was not destroyed, but some people left them forever.

Luo Shan had cried several times in the past few days, and today she started to shed tears again, with only two gaps left in her red and swollen eyes. Sika handed her a handkerchief, but Roshan shed more and more tears.

But Tingen could not live without the Nighthawks, and they had to rush back to the Blackthorn Security Company as soon as possible. In coordination with the police, they temporarily rented the building next door and waited for the original house to be repaired before moving back.

Leonard's footsteps stopped again after passing several tombstones, and he stared at another name quietly.

It was an arched stone tablet. There was no picture of the sleeping person on it, only a bow-tie-like symbol was engraved on it. The name below had no surname, and his birthday was just a question mark. Contrary to the concise message, the epitaph below was Quite long:

"Four tablespoons of butter, half a cup of cocoa powder, two eggs,

Half a cup of white sugar, two-thirds of a cup of flour, half a bowl of fresh cream,

Stir vigorously until uniform and simmer in a large oven for 30 minutes on high heat.

Sprinkle with white icing sugar, chopped nuts or delicious ice cream. "

Leonard twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

When Dunn walked to him, he couldn't help but stop and look at these lines of extremely strange epitaphs. There was almost no room for them on the tombstone, and all the inscriptions had to be squeezed together and pasted together. .

Dai Li next to her cast her eyes over curiously.

Of course, a recipe was incompatible with the silent cemetery, which also made Dai Li smile sadly: "I seem to know why Roxanne and you value this girl so much."

"She is also a member of the Tingen Nighthawks," Leonard said softly, as if he was afraid of waking up the beings buried under the cemetery, "I am very happy to know her, and I will remember her name."

One day, I will seek revenge for her and Klein on the culprit of all this!

The old man in Leonard's mind sighed deeply, and the sigh contained complex emotions that Leonard could not understand.

Dunn didn't know how to answer Leonard's words. He knew that within a week, the sadness about the accident would continue, but after two or three weeks... would they still remember Esther?

On the day Esther was buried, Deacon Sesima took away all the "written records" related to her in the Tingen Nighthawks, including the notes Esther had written, the books she had read, and the knitting materials she had used. Colorful string and all the items in her room.

Esther was buried with only another silver Holy Emblem of the Night. She was wearing the simplest linen skirt. If it weren't for the hole in the bottom of the coffin that could be seen through her forehead, Esther looked like she was injured because of Weak and asleep.

There was still a funeral for Klein, but the church's instructions for Esther's hasty burial filled Dunn with sadness. Only the next day, her pale face was covered under the coffin.

Amidst Roxanne's painful sobs, everyone took out the braided bracelet or knot that Esther had given them, but the threads that she said were "full of blessings" when they were given out had all been broken.

Dunn only discovered after Crane's funeral that he didn't even have anyone to inform—no one needed to know about Esther's death. She was so easily erased by Ince Zangwill, and after saving her own life, she completely left the Nighthawks in Tingen.

When we all forget her, who will come to pray for her and pay homage to her death?

Until the day when the Nighthawks who came to patrol Raphael Cemetery walked past Esther's tombstone without any trouble, the last memory she left for us also disappeared...

"Dunn, it's time for us to go." Dai Li's voice sounded softly. She looked sadly at the "unknown" name on the tombstone, always feeling a little familiar.

"Yeah." Dunn strode away from the cemetery.

Leonard glanced at Esther's tombstone again, trying hard to recall her voice and smile, and engraved the vows he made to the two deceased people in his heart today.

A black crow hovered in the sky for a long time, until everyone attending the funeral in the cemetery had left, then it flew down, folded its wings, and landed in front of the brand new monument.

It made no sound for a long time at the funny recipe epitaph.

Soon, the crow spread its wings again, and its hoarse chirping sound moved away to the east.
