Greetings, Mister Principal: Leave
It was noon the next day when everything was packed up. Reiner visited Dr. Felice again, and they decided to take the afternoon train to leave the town at the same time.
The steam train passing through the town of Sur runs every two days. The station is located in the east of the town. There are few people here on weekdays. For the townspeople, the outside world represents danger and terror, and there is only their own corner. Heaven and earth are the best.
Fina was wearing a dark brown dress with a small vest on it. This was her mother's old clothes. Paired with her intellectual glasses, Reiner suddenly felt that Fina's father would have fallen. Very normal.
She was holding an old box in her hand, which Fina's father brought when he came to this town. Now it contained the academic achievements of Fina's father's life.
Leiner went to the hospital with Fina first. Doctor Phyllis had already packed his luggage. He had been in Sur Town for so many years, and only a small suitcase could carry all his things, but about Fina There were two large boxes filled with information about his father's illness and all the patients he had come into contact with over the years.
Dr. Felice was originally going to take the nurses to a larger hospital for storage. When he saw Reiner, he nodded slightly.
"Give it to me."
Reiner released the mage's hand and lifted two large boxes of luggage, which actually helped Dr. Felice a lot.
The four of them walked towards the station, but before they saw the shadow of the station, they saw a group of people first.
These were the townspeople headed by the mayor. Reiner saw several young people mixed in. He reached out and gently put his hand on Fina's shoulder. He could feel that the girl was trembling slightly. .
This is not timidity, but anger.
"Calm down, I'll handle it."
Reiner whispered in Fina's ear, and then took a few steps forward.
His actions made the townspeople take a few steps back. These people still remembered Reiner's intimidation a few days ago, but they could not just watch these people leave from under their noses.
"Are you here to see me off?"
Reiner asked. He looked at the mayor and the people behind him. Perhaps it was one of these people who attacked Fina's father that day.
"You can't leave like this, Fina Nabistin should stay in the town."
The mayor said without confidence that he was afraid that Fina would become stronger in the outside world and use other methods to retaliate against them.
"Why?"
Reiner found it a little funny. He had never met such a stupid guy before.
"...She is a member of Soul Town, and it is my responsibility to make sure she does!"
The mayor seemed not to expect that Reiner would ask this question. He was stunned for a moment before searching his brain to find such a reason.
"From now on, she is no more."
Reiner took out a piece of paper, which was an appointment letter he drafted yesterday. It said that Fina Nabistin would be hired as an assistant teacher at Crescent College. According to the laws and magic of the kingdom, According to the association's regulations, a mage who serves as a teacher in a school can move his household registration to the school for easier management. In other words, Fina should be considered a member of Crescent College now.
"I know that you don't know much about reading, mayor, so I will give you a simple explanation. If you have any objections, you can contact the Baron who has jurisdiction over this place."
Reiner's words made the mayor blush.
How dare he use the baron to suppress him! ? ?
But for a moment, the mayor couldn't think of any words to refute, and watched helplessly as Reiner and Fina stepped over him and the townspeople.
"Oh, by the way, one last thing."
Reiner stopped and said to the mayor.
"Mr. Nabistin left a black box. I wonder if anyone has seen it?"
He asked, scanning the crowd. Several people's eyes were wandering, as if they were avoiding Reiner's sight.
"How could we take his stuff?"
The mayor said with a look of disgust, and behind him, several people agreed.
"Well, there are very precious gems in that box. It seems to have been lost in the mountains."
Reiner sighed as if helpless, then turned around and led Fina towards the station.
He gave these people opportunities, but no one cherished them.
......
After Reiner left, Sur Town seemed to have returned to its original peace.
But a few young people were not so restless. As night fell, they were gathering together in a corner of the town.
"Cassin, we snatched that thing back together, now you can't keep it all to yourself."
A young man said. His words made everyone look at the mayor's son who was leaning against the wall. His face was gloomy and he looked around at the others.
"Isn't it me who suggested teaching that old man a lesson? I was the one who provided the information to you, right? It was I who finally suggested keeping that black box. What qualifications do you have to own that thing?"
He has always been the leader of this group of people. As the mayor's son, he felt that he was destined to lead these people. At that time, he decided to take action on Nabistin, whom his father had been targeting, and lead him Someone secretly attacked the frail old mage and snatched away the black box he had been holding in his arms. At this time, the box was under his bed.
Normally, when Cassin said these words, everyone else would have avoided arguing with him, but maybe Reiner made him make a fool of himself a few days ago~IndoMTL.com~ He is in this group There is not much prestige left among people, and these words did not cause any waves.
"Split it equally, otherwise we will report you to the Baron for murder."
A woman said that she had sacrificed her life to please Cassin in the past, but now, she was decisively on the side of money.
"You all share in Nabistin's death!"
Kashin threatened fiercely, and a few people seemed to retreat, but most people were indifferent.
"Kashin, if you are not willing to split equally, I think we can find another way."
A tall man said calmly that in the past, due to his family background, he could only follow Cassin's lead, but now he also feels rebellious.
"What do you want to do..."
Kashin sensed that something was not right about the atmosphere, and secretly picked up a wooden stick by the wall.
But the others were faster. The tall man clamped Cassin's hand, and then the other young people picked up the stones on the ground and threw them at Cassin.
Ten minutes later, when the woman realized that the stone in her hand was already stained with gray-white brain matter, everyone stopped what they were doing.
The Cassin in the middle of the crowd could no longer be called a humanoid. It was a filthy mixture of flesh and blood.
"We killed people..."
It was only then that someone realized what they had done.
"Don't panic, he deserves it."
The tall man trembled slightly and said while suppressing his inner wavering.
"Now that we are all in the same boat, the next step is to find the black box!"
After hearing his words, everyone with dull expressions slowly turned their heads and looked at the mayor's home not far away.
