Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 43 The So-Called Secret
The Wayne family secret?
Goethe frowned secretly, but kept moving forward.
It’s not that I don’t believe it.
On the contrary, Goethe truly believed that Silas might have discovered some secrets that he did not know.
As the 'only' survivor of the Wayne family, Goethe knew that he had been too well protected before and there were many things he didn't know - in fact, according to the memories he saw, not only Goethe's generation, but also Goethe's parents, uncles, aunts, and aunts had completely left the 'supernatural world', otherwise, his 'aunt' would not have suffered such a tragedy.
Maybe in the entire 'Wayne family', only his grandfather knew something.
But his grandfather remained tight-lipped.
Maybe he would tell his 'father' or an 'uncle' or an 'aunt' at some point, but the sudden death disrupted everything.
The Wayne family's 'secret' was completely covered up.
As the only survivor of the Wayne family, Goethe naturally felt sorry for this.
However, this does not mean that he will choose to "cooperate" with Sheila!
That’s right!
It's cooperation!
The other party appeared in front of him and told him a "secret". Naturally, it was because of this "secret" that he had to cooperate with him in order for the other party to gain something.
Goethe could think of nothing else.
And then it was proved that Goethe's guess was correct——
"Goethe, don't you want to know what secret I have discovered?"
Qianla reached out and lifted up the hem of her skirt, then quickly walked in front of Goethe, blocking his way, with excitement flashing in her emerald green eyes.
even……
Still a little excited.
After Goethe encountered such a gaze, he wanted even less to have anything to do with the woman in front of him.
Because his experience in his hometown taught him that when a woman looks at you like that, you are in trouble.
And if the woman is very beautiful, the trouble will be fatal.
He already has enough troubles now and doesn't want to get into more troubles.
certainly!
The most important point!
Goethe didn't believe the other party!
Beautiful women are the most deceptive!
Goethe still remembers what Mother Zhang said in his hometown.
After all, the top girl in a garden club might be good-looking and might sing beautifully, but she definitely couldn’t have that kind of skills.
And there are weapons like that!
This is not normal either. A head-on battle will never happen. It can only happen to one type of person...
assassin!
An assassin disguised as the club's top star, Goethe knew that he should stay away from him as soon as he thought about it.
so--
"In no mood!"
Goethe said with certainty.
After saying that, he walked around Xila and continued forward.
However, Sheila stood in front of Goethe again, with a light figure and flying skirt, like a butterfly. The top girl of the Garden Club looked at Goethe's young and handsome face, his sharp eyes, and his calmness that was totally inconsistent with his age. Feeling the special temperament formed by these mixed qualities, she suddenly laughed.
Sweet smile as always.
Then, she used the fan to block the sight of those around her, and a low voice came slowly -
"Of course you don't."
"because……"
"You are also well aware of this secret, right?"
"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 this term.
However, this reaction caused Sheila to misunderstand.
A hint of certainty appeared in those green eyes that were filled with joy and excitement.
Then……
Just scrutinize!
It was a kind of scrutiny that seemed to see through Goethe completely.
In fact, Xila has been full of curiosity about Goethe these days.
After that unsuccessful attempt, more and more information came into her hands. She was surprised to find that this big boy who looked like he had just reached adulthood not only disrupted the plans of the 'Killer in the Fog' several times, but also killed more than one extraordinary person.
More importantly, the other party acted meticulously and ruthlessly.
He doesn't look like a grown-up boy at all.
Instead, they looked like some veterans she had met.
No!
Even among some veterans, it is rare.
Therefore, Sheila was very sure that the Goethe in front of her was the last guardian and heir of the secret of the Wayne family - the other party's grandfather had handed everything to the Goethe in front of her.
And Goethe did not disappoint the grandfather.
But this was not good news for her.
Because the heir in front of him is so outstanding.
Generally speaking, it's hard to get what she wants from it.
but!
Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
The keeper who came to support was killed.
She had heard a little about Puli's reputation, and she didn't expect that Puli would be killed so easily by another guy's men.
However, she did not feel regretful.
On the contrary, she was a little happy.
Because the situation after Puli's death was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her.
Goethe...
Lack of help!
She is well aware of this.
Therefore, she couldn't wait and came to see Goethe immediately.
"Would you like to cooperate?"
"Pulley is dead, and the Secret Keeper won't get any reinforcements in a short time. Although that guy is a bastard, he's very good at hiding. I haven't caught him yet. And the group of idiots in the 'Flesh and Blood Church' were fooled by that guy and thought they had the situation in Lust under their control. So, those idiots have already started to stir up trouble in several cities around Lust as planned. The Secret Keeper's forces have been completely attracted there, and there won't be any reinforcements in a short time!"
"So, now, in Lust, there are only you, the seriously injured Morley, and Mrs. Burns who is also seriously injured!"
"And the three of you are no match for that guy!"
"You know, that guy's allies are pretty scary!"
"But, with my words..."
"But it can turn the tide of the battle!"
Sheila said softly.
Goethe did not answer, but stared at Xila.
It seemed like he was asking why Sheila knew so much.
Even though Sheila is the top star of the Garden Club, a well-informed place, the information before her is beyond the other party's grasp.
Is it similar to the assassin's intelligence network?
Moreover, turning the tide of the battle...
The other party was very confident.
Is there any other trump card?
Or is there any help?
Goethe pondered, his eyes becoming sharper.
"Oh, don't look at me like that, I'll be shy."
Facing Goethe's gaze, Sheila lowered her head, and a blush actually appeared on her face.
As if she didn't want Goethe to see her shy look, the top girl of the Garden Club once again covered her face with the fan, leaving only her eyes exposed as she looked at Goethe.
Qingming Festival, without a trace of panic.
The sound was even more like that of a mosquito or fly, and only Goethe, who was standing in front of him, could hear it.
"Let's get to know each other again..."
"Sheila, owner of the Hunter Bar."
