Genius remembers the address of this site in a second: []https://The fastest update! No ads!
Annie didn't know what happened—she just had time to see two strangers standing at the gate of the cemetery, when the old guard's slightly bent body blocked her view, and the old man's slightly nervous voice came to her In the ear: "Child, don't look over there."
The little girl was a little nervous: "Grandpa, what's wrong?"
"Don't move, don't talk, it's okay." The old man said softly, while his eyes still stayed on the burly figure. The hand was on the chest - there was a talisman there, which could be used to set off an alarm throughout the cemetery if necessary.
The burly figure came towards this side.
The muscles of the old man's whole body tensed up.
"Good morning," a deep voice came from under the thick bandage, as if echoing in the tomb, "this should be my first official 'door visit,'"
It is a clear language communication, and the attitude is very friendly-like the previous contact, this unnameable "visitor" showed a friendly stance.
But the muscles on the old guard's body did not dare to relax at all. He had thought that this visitor would visit again sooner or later, and also thought about the circumstances under which he would communicate with the other party, but he never expected that the other party would come In this way, he came to the gate of the cemetery openly, stood opposite him and greeted himself. He didn't know whether Anne behind him would be affected by this visitor, so he could only stand between the two as much as possible, thinking quickly about what to do next. down coping.
The nervousness of the old man completely fell into Duncan's eyes.
You look even more nervous than when we first met - is it because of the child behind you?
The old guard looked at the thing that the other party took out in astonishment, and he subconsciously took it before he realized it. He blinked in confusion. Write yourself a letter.
A... letter? It turned out to be a letter? !
It seems that because of the sudden change in the atmosphere, Anne seemed a little nervous, she shrank behind the old guard: Yes, yes. "
"Ah, that's good, I can save some trouble," Duncan said, raising his hand to dig in his pocket-this action made the cemetery guard in front of him obviously startled, and he smiled and shook his head when he saw this. Shaking his head, "Don't be nervous, if I really have bad intentions, I don't need to raise my hand."
But the cemetery guard beside him suddenly reacted.
Duncan quietly looked at the little girl who was poking her head out from behind the old guard, staring at his eyes, as well as the outline of eyebrows vaguely similar to Captain Bartokto.
"It's easy to slip on snowy days," Duncan nodded, then looked at the little girl and asked casually, "What's your name? How old are you this year?"
"My name is Anne," the girl said unsuspectingly, "Anne Bardencan, I am seventeen years old this year!"
"Captain Bartokto Ba Qiuying, what is your relationship with you?"
Duncan bent over slowly, keeping his eyes on the same level as the girl, and making his tone as gentle as possible: "Your surname is Ba Duncan?"
As Annie spoke, her voice suddenly became louder.
"He's... my father." Annie whispered, then subconsciously grabbed the old guard's clothes, looked up at the old man, as if she wanted to ask for help.
Duncan suddenly stretched out his hand and rubbed Annie's head—on the thick woolen hat, a little snowflake that hadn't melted fell down and mixed with the snow.
The pupils of the old guard shrank slightly, but he quickly covered up the change in expression.
"Give this to the gatekeeper named Agatha, or directly to your cathedral," Duncan said casually, "Anyway, it's just news, as long as the news is delivered."
He just asked a random question, but he didn't expect...it would be such a coincidence.
But he was a step slower.
The old man suddenly pressed Annie's shoulders to tell the child not to continue talking, then he raised his head and looked directly into Duncan's eyes: "What you said...is the real situation?"
"Just want
It’s just a visit to the cemetery, someone who has nothing to do with the church,” the old man said immediately, and after realizing that Anne was really not affected, he relaxed a little, “He is trying to persuade the child to go back, today The weather is terrible."
"Make a small contribution to the safety of the city," Duncan smiled, but unfortunately his friendly expression was completely blocked by the bandages, and then he looked past the old guard and looked at the little boy who was hiding behind the old man Girl, "Did it scare you?"
Before the gate of the cemetery, there was suddenly silence.
He still couldn't understand what Duncan's words meant—he didn't even understand the existence of this tall and burly figure in front of him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a sealed letter from the windbreaker pocket, and handed it to the old man in front of him.
"...I think it is," Duncan thought for a while, I don't know what happened to the gate of Death Chris, and I don't know what humans will experience after death, but in front of a child, I knew what I had to say—and it was something I wished with all my heart, "He sent me off himself."
"Also, don't forget this letter."
"You are Captain Bartokto's daughter—you live with your mother on Hearth Street?" Duncan looked at the little girl in front of him and asked again.
Duncan nodded slightly.
The same goes for the old guard on the side.
"...I've met, although I'm not too familiar," Duncan said softly, "He asked me to visit you and your mother. I haven't had time to look for you, so I didn't expect to meet here."
Annie nodded calmly, and then seemed to react: "You...know my father?"
In fact, since a long time ago, he no longer doubted what the old man had told him.
"Is that priestess not here?"
Duncan glanced in the direction of the cemetery curiously, "I have something more important to tell her."
However, the old man didn't respond. He just showed astonishment, as if he had thought of something, looked at Duncan with an incredulous expression, and at the same time looked at the young woman with a veil and a blond hair shawl in surprise.
Annie raised her head and blinked.
The old guard was silent for a while. He knew what the other party meant, and he also knew that Anne, as a normal person, would not be affected by some extraordinary power like himself, but he still did not relax, but asked cautiously: " What do you want to do here this time?"
The mark and serial number of a small local printing factory can be seen on the back of the envelope—this is not even a "secret ceremony letter" condensed by some extraordinary power, it was bought from a newsstand at the intersection, and even Maybe I bought it by chance this morning when I was passing by.
"She just left," said the old guard, and at the same time he became more cautious when he mentioned Agatha, "what do you want from her?"
"Oh, then she's safe," Duncan said, "You should understand what she can't see."
"No," Annie shook her head, carefully looking at the tall and burly figure across the old man's fingers, "I'm very courageous."
"I know you are friendly, but your very existence may affect ordinary people," the old guard said cautiously, trying his best not to offend the visitors in front of him. training in this area.”
The old guard blinked, and before he could speak, he saw the green flames flashing away in front of him.
The old guard's heart tightened, and he wanted to remind Annie, who had never been in contact with supernatural power, not to speak. After all, it is quite dangerous to reveal her name to a superior supernatural who has a clear history——
"Relax," Duncan said, with a slight smile in his voice, "I have no hostility—much less the kid behind you."
Then he paused, and added: "I can contact her at any time - the cemetery guard is also a priest, and can directly contact the cathedral and the gatekeeper."
"I have a niece, she is also very courageous," Duncan said, looking at the old man, "this child is..."
The sound of stepping on the snow came from the side, and Alice was a little surprised
Looking at the little girl who claimed to be "Anne Bardencan" ~IndoMTL.com~ and turned to look at Duncan: "Ah, I remember the surname Bardencan, isn't it...
The old man raised his head, with obvious doubts and inquiries in his slightly cloudy and yellow eyes.
I looked over the envelope again.
"My father..." Annie opened her mouth, but she couldn't think of what to say for a long time. After trying her best to organize the words for a long time, she asked cautiously, "He is really not dead...is he?"
"Captain Bartokto is a great man, very great - he should be in a country by now, and rest there."
"It's almost time for me to leave," Duncan said. He looked at Anne, who was still a little confused, and then at the guard of the cemetery. "Although I have a lot to say, I have to be busy." There are still many things to do, let's meet again when we have a chance.
"Then... will he still be sent here?" Annie asked calmly again, "The adults say that people who believe in the God of Death will return to Chris's tomb after death. Then I was led to the gate, and the grandpa guard told me that this cemetery is..."
