Chapter 677 Report
Above the endless sea, the sky was gray, the sea breeze was howling, and among the surging waves, a white passenger ship was sailing with a long trail.
On the deck of the passenger ship, there are many passengers gathered here at the moment. According to the time calculation, this passenger ship should arrive at the destination soon. They have come here specially to witness the end of this journey.
One of them was a tall woman with dark skin, wearing a light-colored windbreaker, a windproof cotton hat, and long boots. Nephnis leaned on the railing of the front deck of the passenger ship, looking at the vast sea in front of her, with a trace of melancholy in her expression.
"It was around this time that I was also traveling by boat... If I remember correctly, it seemed to be the same route, crossing the same sea... This hour passed by like this, it felt so fast..."
As the sea breeze blew, Nephnis whispered with a hint of sigh, thinking of the study tour she had experienced in the past. It seemed that it started from the beginning of the year. At that time, she also set out from Tivian and rushed to Farajo, taking the same route. Now, a period of time has passed unknowingly. Thinking of the various experiences she had in the past period of time, she couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions.
"During the semester... the first half of the semester plus the summer vacation, I traveled around the world with Miss Dorothy. I experienced a lot... It felt like time was passing very slowly. After that, I went to school normally and spent every day peacefully. A semester was gone in the blink of an eye. Although the life in the first half of the semester was very fulfilling, in the end, I am more suitable for an ordinary life..."
Nephnis thought so in her heart. The stable life for half a century completely relaxed her nerves that were tense because of her frequent secret activities. She thought the boring university life had become unusually comfortable. If possible, she hoped that this comfort could last longer. However, the reality was that her comfortable days seemed to be coming to an end.
'Invite me to travel to Farajo... Miss Dorothy's words sound very nice, I guess she needs me for some private matters. Hmm... What a pity, I originally wanted to go somewhere to have fun during my remaining vacation, but since Miss Dorothy said so, there's nothing I can do...
"But I have been resting at Miss Dorothy's for several months, and now is the time."
Nephnis thought with a trace of distress in her heart. Although she also liked to live an ordinary life away from the secret, she also knew that it was almost impossible to stay away from the secret given the situation of her family. Only Dorothy could win a glimmer of hope for herself and her family in the cruel family fate, so if Dorothy asked her to do something, she would not refuse. After all, Dorothy was also a ceremonial guard for whether he could go further on the road of extraordinary life.
"I hope this isn't something too dangerous..." Neveu thought hopefully as she looked out at the sea in the distance. As time passed, the tip of the lighthouse began to appear on the sea surface ahead, and the desolate coastline gradually emerged behind it. Her not-too-long journey was about to end.
…
After the ship docked at the port city of Basel in Farajo, Nephnis immediately got off the ship. Then she began to stroll around the city she had visited before, carrying her luggage, looking around and admiring the scenery. When she left the dock area and came to an intersection at the agreed location, Nephnis saw a black carriage parked on the side of the road at the busy intersection. The coachman was a familiar figure.
After seeing the carriage, Neveu quickened her pace and walked to the side of the carriage. The driver in the driving seat saw Neveu approaching and got down to the ground with a smile. After a slight greeting, he opened the door of the carriage. Seeing this, Neveu nodded in greeting, then got into the carriage and sat on a seat on one side. Then she saw a more familiar figure opposite her.
"Good afternoon, Miss Dorothy." Neveu said with a smile as she looked at the white-haired girl in a black and white dress and a lady's hat sitting in front of her. Dorothy nodded and spoke after letting the corpse driver close the door and return to his seat.
"You've had a hard journey, Senior Neveu. How was your winter vacation?" Dorothy said as she asked the coachman to drive the car forward, and Neveu responded immediately.
"I've been having a pretty good time, but the school is about to start, so I wanted to prepare for my studies. I didn't expect that Miss Dorothy would suddenly invite me to travel to Farajo. Well... I thought our trip wouldn't last too long, as there are still some things I haven't prepared yet." Neveu said to Dorothy with her hands clasped together, and Dorothy waved her hand in response.
"As for this... I'm afraid it won't be finished in a short time. It will probably take a week or two. But don't worry, if your homework is really troublesome, I will help you deal with it later. Now just concentrate on our 'travel'." Dorothy said to Neveu. After listening to her speech, Neveu couldn't help but pursed her lips, and then continued.
"Then... where is the destination of our 'tour'? Wanfuluoz? I remember that it is the capital of Farajo."
"Of course we have to go to Floss, but Faraday is so big, it would be a pity to go directly to Floss. Anyway, we are not in a hurry right now, so we can go to other places first."
Dorothy responded to Neveu in this way. In the meantime, she took out a stack of things from her clothes and unfolded them in her hands. After Neveu took a closer look, she found that they were certificate envelopes. Each envelope was sealed with red sealing clay, and on the sealing clay was printed a letter "K".
Looking at these mothers and children, Neveu couldn't help but shiver all over.
…
A few days later, in the north of Farajo, Flots.
In Flotz during the day, the weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly. The late winter and early spring sunshine illuminated the huge city. Citizens were walking through the streets and alleys, politicians were shouting at each other, ordinary people were working hard for their livelihoods, and the upper class were enjoying last night's dance in various high-end places. Everything was just like in the past.
On a busy street somewhere, with people coming and going and cars busy, a barefoot newsboy held the newspaper high, ran on the sidewalk, and shouted loudly.
"Action! Thief K strikes again! The Albuquerque Museum has been robbed! The entire police force is on guard but to no avail! The thief who never fails has once again fulfilled his promise!"
Holding a newspaper in his hand, the newsboy was running and shouting. After hearing the newsboy's shouting, the people on the road stopped him one after another, and then took out copper coins to buy a newspaper. The countless newspapers held by the newsboy were quickly consumed in this hot news topic, and soon all the newspapers were sold out.
