Yang was the uncooperative student before. On the way here, Loris had already told the three of them about his basic situation. Now he asked again, obviously wanting to start with him.

After all, he is just a child, and it would be better to pull him out of the quagmire as soon as possible.

"Yang? The university he applied to refused to accept him. Maybe he'll have to learn a proper trade?"

The clerk stood there, looked up and recalled.

"He has a good talent for magic and his grades in high school are not bad either. Why is there no university willing to accept him?"

Listening to the clerk's answer, Loris asked in surprise.

He was very familiar with Yang. He could say that he had watched the child grow up. His academic performance had always been excellent. How could no school accept him?

However, the next second, the clerk's answer made Loris cover his forehead.

"He threw away the letter of recommendation you gave him."

"That kid..."

Loris couldn't remember how many times he had sighed today.

Today's Leithania is not what it used to be. Even though the nobles' tower has been opened to the public and turned into a university, it is still extremely difficult to get in without a recommendation from someone relevant.

The so-called relevant persons are... the nobles.

Obviously, Yang does not belong to the latter.

"He also said that instead of worrying about what school he should go to, you should spend more time trying to find out where Yulia is."

The clerk stood there, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "...Well, now that we've come to this, Mr. Boulding, I think Yang has been acting strangely lately."

"The day he received your letter of recommendation, he asked me why his father didn't need it when he was in school. His father had once entered the tower of a certain earl on his own merit."

"When that Majesty was still around, talent was much more important than family background. That's what he said."

After hearing what the clerk said, Loris finally understood why Yang, who was originally a good boy, had changed so drastically.

No comparison, no harm...

The Age of the Sorcerer King valued talent, while the Age of the Gemini Queens valued background. Coupled with the disappearance of his sister and the powerlessness of the gendarmerie, Yang became increasingly disappointed with this era.

Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that we would yearn for that era.

"Where has he been hanging around lately?"

Rubbing his temple, Loris asked tiredly.

"I don't know..."

The clerk pursed his lips, also looking confused.

"Corner sculpture."

Just when Loris was about to give up, Talina suddenly reminded him.

"what?"

"As you said, Yang probably didn't know what the horn sculpture looked like before, which means someone showed it to him."

Federico added on to Talina's words, looking at the clerk with sharp eyes.

“Where were the most angular sculptures in the past?”

"Uh... Gustavus Park, not far from here. It's now called Forest Park."

The clerk was about forty years old, about the same age as Loris, and was obviously stunned when Federico asked him.

PS: Two updates today. I’m going to buy corn tomorrow. It will be ready for eating after about three months of growth. Hehehe, I’ve harvested so much corn, it’s finally time for me to eat it!

Volume 8: Chapter 23: Aren’t you here to pick someone up?

The four of them sat in the store for the entire afternoon and drank a lot of alcohol and drinks, most of which were drunk by Loris.

Perhaps influenced by Yang, Loris drank one glass after another, as if he was going to take over all the drinks in the restaurant.

Only after the rain stopped did Loris stop what he was doing, rummaged through his clothes, took out a wallet and slapped it on the table.

"Bill, please!"

Waving and shouting, Loris stood up from his seat.

The clerk rushed over after hearing the news and took Loris's wallet and looked through their spending this time.

The wallet was bulging with three cards in it. The clerk only took out a hundred-dollar bill from it and then rummaged through his pockets to prepare the change.

But just as he moved his hands, Loris picked up the wallet on the table and forcefully stuffed it into his hands.

"Mr. Boulding...? This is enough to buy beer for a year. You don't need so much."

The clerk said bewilderedly as he held Bolding's wallet.

They spent less than a hundred yuan on drinks this afternoon. Not to mention the cash in the wallet, the three cards alone showed that they were worth a lot of money.

If his eyesight was not blurry, it should be a bank card for nobles, not ordinary people.

"Keep it. I'm going to come to your place to hold my retirement party later..."

Loris waved his hand nonchalantly: "As for the rest, please pass it on to Yang for me. This money should be enough for him to gain a foothold in Victoria or Columbia. It will be a good thing for him to get out early."

After saying that, Loris turned and left. The clerk looked at his back silently for a long time before taking Loris's wallet.

A sigh was heard, but it did not shake Loris's steps.

"This child should have a good relationship with you, right?"

Looking at Loris, Talina asked curiously.

The salary of a gendarmerie chief is probably quite high. To be able to survive in the brothels of Victoria and Columbia, it would cost at least hundreds of thousands of Longmen coins.

You are so generous.

"Not really. Anyway, he probably dislikes me right now."

With a wry smile, Loris straightened his collar and said, "I watched that child grow up. Fifteen years ago, his sister disappeared, and the case was naturally assigned to me..."

"I've been looking for a long time... until now."

"When I first came to Leithania, it was their father who helped me so that I could gain a foothold here. Otherwise... heh, I would probably be lying in the park now."

His best friend's daughter is missing, but he has no clue about the cause. This feeling of powerlessness has been tormenting Loris. Not only does Yang look down on him, but even he looks down on himself.

Fifteen years have passed now, and even though the case is still pending in the gendarmerie, it is just a pending case.

So much time has passed, and everyone knows the situation. He just doesn't want to give up. He doesn't want to give up. Even if there is only a slight possibility, he still wants to look for it.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy. It was almost dusk and the sky was beginning to darken, but the four of them still walked towards the park.

Soon, they arrived at what the clerk called Gustav Park, which is now the Forest Park.

In the past, this was a "feng shui treasure land" where the Witch King buried dissidents. Countless corpses were buried there, and a number of spiral sculptures symbolizing the Witch King's power were erected on it.

However, after the Gemini Queens took over, the place has been transformed into a beautiful place, and there is no sign that it was once a cemetery.

Lush plants are growing wildly and the trees are growing unusually vigorously. I don’t know if it’s because the soil here is rich in nutrients.

Looking at the quiet and deserted environment around her, Talina secretly moved Youyan, who was hanging behind her waist, to the side.

This place is fine during the day, with people moving around, but it becomes eerie at night, and the historical relics here...

It's so creepy!

She was not afraid of danger. The fact that she dared to pretend to be dead under Roy's arrow proved that she was not afraid at all, but she still felt a little guilty about these invisible and intangible things.

The Witch King... the echo of Herhunzoren... the cruel king... could this be the place where he once tested his magic? A gathering place for countless wronged souls?

Unconsciously becoming nervous, the energy core in Talina's chest began to rotate, making a buzzing sound.

Suddenly, someone grabbed her hand, which startled the alert Talina and she immediately turned around to look.

"Really...don't be so scary..."

Muttering softly, Talina expressed her dissatisfaction with Viviana's "sneak attack".

Viviana said nothing, but squeezed Talina's hand and smiled back.

She could sense Talina's abnormality, so she came forward to stand beside her, holding Talina's hand, and providing her lover with a sense of security.

Being interrupted by Viviana, the fear in Talina's heart instantly disappeared, and she turned to look at the other two.

"The area here is too large. Why don't we search separately? Since Yang might have come into contact with the horn sculpture here, it means those guys have appeared here before."

"Okay, let's get it over with sooner so I can go back and rest sooner."

Loris nodded and agreed with Talina's method.

In fact, even if Talina didn't say it, he would find a way to get rid of these two people.

The title of the Queen's Voice is really too scary. If Yang really joins that organization, he will definitely not be able to escape in order to prevent future troubles.

As long as I find the child first, there is still a chance.

"Agreed, I'll start from here."

Federico had no objection. After adjusting the gun at his waist, he headed into the woods.

But just as he took a step forward, Loris grabbed the back of his collar.

Pulling the wandering Sakota to his side, Loris said with a frown, "We'll be a team of two, so we can look after each other."

He was really scared. Federico was very good at causing trouble, and he was worried that if he didn't pay attention, this guy would cause a big accident.

For example, burning down the park or something.

After dividing into teams, the four of them walked into the park from two directions and headed towards the center.

Although the dense forest park is called a park, it is actually more like a restored forest area. The trees here are dense and thick, and there are numerous towering trees. There is a thick layer of fallen leaves piled on the ground, which feels soft when stepped on.

Talina and Viviana walked side by side, guarding against each other and keeping each other alert to the surrounding situation.

The park is very large, and Talina walked for about half an hour and only walked a little over half of it.

The surrounding environment was quiet. Apart from the chirping of insects, the only sounds were the footsteps of the two of them.

After walking for about ten more minutes, Viviana couldn't stand this weird atmosphere anymore and started talking to Talina first.

"Um...why did you suddenly appear around the art museum?"

Hesitantly, Viviana asked the question she had wanted to ask for a long time.

She was the only one who knew her itinerary for today, not even the two queens knew. In that case, why would Talina come to her?

Thinking of this, Viviana lowered her head and a blush appeared on her face.

The story of a hero saving a beauty is very old-fashioned, but it is also very effective. Although they are already an old couple, she still couldn't help but be moved.

"Ah? That one? I just happened to be passing by, and I noticed the fluctuations of that guy's Originium technique, coupled with the sound of the piano, and then I rushed in."

Talina's answer was a little perfunctory, but it was her true thoughts.

Arturo had long been on her watch list, and in that case, she had to go and see him.

Whatever this guy wants to do, just send her somewhere else.

As long as you don't hang around her, everyone can live in peace.

"Is that so... Then what are you doing out today? Is there anyone watching you, baby?"

Listening to Talina's explanation, Viviana felt a little lost, but she was not a depressed person and quickly regained her spirits.

"Going out? Of course I'm going out to pick someone up..."

After answering habitually, Talina suddenly stopped walking and stood there like a sculpture.

yes...

Didn’t you come out to pick someone up? ! !

.........

At the same time, at the station in Trilinterme.

Maria looked at her watch, holding her small schoolbag in her arms, curled up her legs and huddled in the chair, looking at the deserted station gate with a wronged look.

Didn’t you agree to pick her up?

What about people?
