Chapter 88. Act II 4 King's Station(1/2)
Yin Hui can't betray his surname, but he can give up everything for the manservant.
Zhou Jinru couldn't believe what he heard. This was probably the most touching sentence he had ever heard, but it came from a man.
The Victorians really spared no effort to express their romance, and even portrayed characters like this in a movie. Is this the selling point of the producer... Zhou Jinru thought divergently and believed that corrupt people in any world would like to play this way.
"Zhou, there is one more thing today. You and I will go to King Station."
"Are you going to welcome any guests?"
Yin Hui's expression became complicated, and he said softly: "Yes, there is a guest, my sister, you know Enya."
Zhou Jinru was stunned for a second and asked deliberately: "Isn't your relationship always very good?"
Judging from Yin Hui's tone, even in the sitcom, the relationship between him and Chu Xue is still not harmonious?
Yin Hui coughed slightly and walked out of the manor: "The relationship you mentioned is good. That happened a long time ago."
Chuxue and Kakufeng followed Dupin's team. In theory, they should arrive at Londinium tomorrow morning, but now Chuxue appears in the plot, indicating that their current location is already within the radiation range of Londinium, at least already
Got the ID card.
Yinhui asked Zhou Jinru to go with him to pick up Chuxue, firstly to prevent him from being attacked again, and secondly so that when he met his sister, both parties would not be so indifferent that they would not even say a polite word.
Zhou Jinru deeply believed this and was already prepared to be a wingman.
The Yin Hui in the game is a man of great wealth, and Du Bin has repeatedly reminded Rhode Island's decision-makers to be careful of the Kjerag warlord. His kindness to the doctor seems more like sympathy for an opponent.
But Zhou Jinru didn't dare to bet, because this was Victoria's melodrama, and he couldn't guarantee that Yin Hui wouldn't propose entertainment activities other than playing chess.
Since Yin Hui's plot had not yet been implemented in the game before he traveled through time, he could only figure out Yin Hui's true thoughts from his personal files and voice conversations.
It is worth mentioning that the people of the Yan Kingdom have a strong sense of hard work and have no objections to Yin Hui's approach in Prince Revenge. However, the views of the players from the neighboring East Kingdom are quite radical, and some people even publicly accused Yin Hui of selling his sister for glory.
On the way to King's Station while driving, Zhou Jinru looked at the gray sky. The city was the same as two years ago. There was no blue sky all year round. The sky was always shrouded by a layer of clouds. Rain and fog became lingering, making the air moist.
.
"The child labor abolition bill two years ago seems to have brought no substantial changes, and the city is still so demoralizing."
Listening to Zhou Jinru's words, Yin Hui, who was sitting in the carriage, replied: "The world is like this. If we can't change the world, at least I have to find a way to make myself live more comfortably."
The translation of Yin Hui is that if we cannot change the world, we must adapt ourselves to the world. He is exactly such a person.
Zhou Jinru was thinking about something else. The tone of the entire sitcom was completely opposite to Yin Hui's thoughts. What the heroine and the Jacobins she joined had been doing was how to change the world.
The carriage walked on the road for a while, crossed the muddy road, and came to the King's Station where the crowd was even denser. In reality, this station has long become a museum with many historical collections, which records an era.
The end of.
In the melodrama, it comes to life again, showing people the past history in its past posture.
Packhorses pulled heavy carriages, and carriages with freight company license plates continued to pull goods out of the station, entering the labor-intensive industrial area from the edge of the city. Countless pairs of anxious and numb eyes watched everything happen, wearing dark blue coarse cloth coats.
The adults held up signs in their hands that said job search and salary expectations. They crowded together and waited for the start of the day's work.
Shivaash's carriage was parked in the VIP area, separated only by a not-so-wide driveway from those waiting for work. When Yin Hui opened the door and walked out of the carriage, his eyes fell on those people, and his eyes twitched.
Fluctuating, but without any hesitation in his movements, he walked out of the carriage smoothly.
"Mr. Shivaash, your private room is ready. Please come with me."
The station staff greeted their arrival respectfully and led the way, politely keeping a distance to give them a safe space for communication.
Yin Hui and Zhou Jinru walked side by side, with a calm expression as always: "I thought you would say something."
"It makes no sense for me to say it."
Zhou Jinru recalled the relevant records he had read when he was in Rhode Island. Londinium is not yet in the form of a mobile city, but as a big city, it continues to develop and expand, using its own excellence to absorb talents and money from surrounding towns.
It will form the Matthew effect, that is, the powerful will become stronger and the weak will become weaker. In the era of mobile cities two hundred years later, this phenomenon will be more serious. Super mobile cities will have advanced technology, drones will fly everywhere, and dozens of
Even fossil-fuel vehicles are rare in small towns kilometers away, and freight basically relies on pack horses.
Suddenly there was a glimmer of realization in his heart that this was a real piece of history, but it had been slightly artistically processed.
"Yes, I'm very happy that you have such an idea. You need to change yourself to adapt to the times. If you want to change the times, you must be prepared to be shattered to pieces."
In the distance, an Originium fuel train with multiple chimneys entered the station, gradually slowed down and stopped steadily.
Yin Hui stared at the train and said in a hoarse voice: "It seems we don't need a rest room today."
What he meant was that Chuxue was on this train and it was just entering the station now. He could go back directly after picking up someone.
However, the reality was beyond their expectations. They saw groups of heavily armed police officers running towards the train, followed closely by high-ranking police inspectors on horseback.
"Walk."
Yin Hui stopped staying and headed straight to the station, but Zhou Jinru didn't follow him immediately. He grabbed a little boy who was selling newspapers at the station door, took out his wallet, took out two gold pounds and stuffed them into the boy's hand.
"gentlemen!"
The little boy yelled, his face red with freckles. Even if he sells newspapers for a day, he may not be able to earn so much income.
Zhou Jinru's expression was serious: "I want to know what happened on that train. You go and find out now. I'll wait for you here!"
In this era, those who can sell things in front of the station are organized gangs, and they have their own news channels.
With so many police officers following them in, there must be a very important person on this train, probably not Chuxue... Zhou Jinru thought to himself, he estimated that Yin Hui might not be able to find out anything, Shiva Ash was an outsider in Londinium,
Since he is not a local noble, his status is not that useful.
He took a newspaper and flipped through two pages, but didn't see any useful content. It was basically some tidbits and gossip, or simply story blocks, which were fine to relieve his boredom.
"The criminal was caught on the red stage. He claimed to be an assassin, but he did something after entertainment!"
"The famous underground boxing champion challenged the steam mecha and won a great victory, this is what she said!"
"Shocked! He lied. It turns out that the truth of the matter is very unusual!"
Not long after, the little boy ran back panting. In the cold weather, a few drops of sweat leaked from the tip of his nose. He said excitedly: "Sir, I have heard the news!"
Zhou Jinru returned the newspaper to him, took out a few gold pounds and stuffed them into his pocket. The little boy grabbed the coins in his hand and said without reservation: "Sir, there is a lady in that car. Well, her identity is very important."
Special, currently undergoing treatment."
When he took out more money again, the newsboy didn't dare to accept it anymore: "Sir, you are really generous, but if you don't get a better return for your efforts, we don't dare to ask any more."
The "we" in the little boy's mouth revealed to Zhou Jinru that they indeed have an organization, and they don't accept money to protect themselves, because people who are too greedy die quickly.
"Thank you for your work."
Zhou Jinru took back most of the gold pounds, took out only two shillings, and said with a smile: "Those just now were information fees, now these are tips for you."
He gave the money to the newsboy and turned around to leave. Behind him came the excited praise: "You are such a generous gentleman!"
Inside the station, a silver figure appeared outside the waiting room, talking to someone. The station was also on alert, with police officers standing at the entrance and exit in twos and threes, strictly checking every hidden danger.
"This is my manservant. I asked him to wait for me outside. It seems that he is very worried about me."
Yin Hui pointed at Zhou Jinru who was stopped at the door. The person in charge of the station who was talking to him smiled and said nothing. When the police officer who searched him made a gesture, he said calmly: "Mr. Shivaash,
I'm sorry, this is a necessary process. You have a competent manservant, which is really enviable. Please wait patiently for another ten minutes. I'm sorry."
It wasn't until the uniformed station manager left that Zhou Jinru got a little closer. His senses told him that the man just now posed a great threat.
"What did you find out?"
Yin Hui stood there expressionless, holding his cane in both hands, motionless, like a statue.
Zhou Jinru did not hide anything: "There is a very important lady in the car who is receiving treatment."
He also had a guess in his mind that in addition to nobles with extremely important status, the people who received strict protection would also be prisoners with far-reaching influence. He didn't know which category the lady belonged to.
Yin Hui pursed her lips, stared at the exit of the waiting room, and said softly: "You are still as alert as before."
His subtext was that he failed to get any information from the station manager, but Zhou Jinru got relevant information.
Zhou Jinru nodded slightly: "Because I am a male servant."
Yin Hui asked: "Do you really think so?"
"if not?"
"I never thought so."
Zhou Jinru: "?!"
What expansion is this?!
He had a toothache. It seemed that his previous guess was correct. If he died in the previous explosion, Silver Gray would not hesitate to join the Jacobins to seek revenge. This is very consistent with the character of Prince's Revenge.
A few minutes later, passengers began to come out of the waiting room one after another. His silver-grey eyes kept scanning them, looking for his target. At this time, he noticed a girl wearing a dark blue dress coming out and looking around blankly.
People and things, she was followed by a man with thick hooves who was as tall and strong as an iron tower.
Unexpectedly, Chuxue and Kakumine appeared together. They did come to Londinium together. So the characters who were added later were synchronized with reality?
"master!"
The man with abundant hoofs noticed Yin Hui first and shouted to alert the lady around him to pay attention.
Standing next to Yin Hui, Zhou Jinru could feel the corners of this man's mouth turning up slightly without even looking. Although he tried his best to control his expression, the joy in his heart could not be hidden from him.
The girl's eyes lit up, her little leather boots clicked on the floor, she walked over quickly, opened her arms... and passed through the silver gray, hugging Zhou Jinru next to her.
To be continued...
