Chapter 149 Fake death to escape(1/2)

When Fannie Valentine arrived at the Green Tombstone.

What he saw was the dead body of Blackmore.

Thunder pierced the night sky.

The rain is heavy.

The patriotic president is angry!

...

...

On the other side, Kansas City.

After making sure that no one was around, Lucy quietly led the horse into the stable, hugged the cloth bag, and quietly returned to the apartment.

Her husband, Stephen Steele, was still at work. She breathed a sigh of relief, went straight to the bathroom, took off her dirty clothes, and washed away the mud with hot water.

Lying comfortably in the bathtub, Lucy had a lot of thoughts.

The "saint's body" was indeed snatched up.

So......

What’s next?

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became, and Lucy held her head helplessly.

I don’t know how long it took, but there was movement outside the bathroom.

——Stephen Steele is back.

Lucy quickly stood up, wiped her body with a bath towel, and hid the remaining two pieces of the "saint's body" in the wooden cabinet above the wash basin.

After all this was done, she adjusted her expression and walked out of the bathroom with a smile, "My dear, you are back."

Seeing Lucy who was only wrapped in a bath towel, Stephen Steele blushed and turned his head deliberately, "Lucy, I've told you many times that girls should be careful about the influence."

Stephen is fifty-three years old.

Lucy is fourteen years old.

Although the two are nominally husband and wife, Stephen has always regarded Lucy as his daughter...

Well.

Most of the time, she is treated as a daughter.

However, Lucy's thoughts were different from Stephen's. She truly loved this man who was nearly forty years older than her.

"We are husband and wife." Lucy smiled slightly.

Then, she suddenly remembered something and quickly stopped smiling.

Stephen Steele, who was always bumping into each other, didn't notice anything strange about his wife and said softly: "I'm going to change clothes first."

After saying that, he arched his body and walked away without looking back.

Lucy breathed a sigh of relief, both amused and shy.

Ten minutes later, the couple gathered in the restaurant and sat across from each other.

Lucy said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, Stephen, today..."

After a pause, she made a random excuse, "I overslept this afternoon."

Stephen Steele, who was eating cold soup and cold bread, waved his hands indifferently, "It's time for you to grow, so you might as well sleep a little longer."

Lucy:......

Long body?

With my current figure, I can make you press the gun so hard that you don’t even dare to raise your head, okay?

On normal days, Lucy would definitely tease Stephen a few words to enhance the relationship between the couple.

But remembering the "saint's body" hidden in the bathroom, she pursed her lips and pretended not to care and asked about Stephen Steele's work.

Stephen said casually: "There is nothing much to say about the competition. Although it has only reached "STAGE 4", the team of Gerald Zeppelin and Jonny Joestar is already far ahead in the standings.

Diego Brando, the only one who might pose a threat to them, for some reason, joined that team..."

‘Jonny Joestar’!

When she heard a certain name, Lucy's eyes lit up and she continued, "Speaking of Johnny Joestar, I am very interested in him."

Um?

Hearing this, Stephen's expression froze slightly.

After carefully recalling everything about Johnny Joestar, he found that the boy was indeed good-looking, with blond hair and blue eyes. He was almost the template of many girls' dream man.

But...

"Johnny Joestar has excellent riding skills and handsome appearance, but it's a pity that he is disabled." Stephen deliberately pointed out Johnny's shortcomings.

Lucy blinked.

She always felt that her husband seemed to have misunderstood something.

Stephen looked at Lucy, and while his heart ached, he also felt relieved.

It’s hard to stay in college if you’re a female.

Shaking his head, he simply refused to do anything and said proactively: "Compared to Jonny Joestar, his cousin Jon Joestar is more suitable as a marriage partner. If you are interested, when the S.B.R competition comes to an end,

, I can introduce you to them."

Lucy stared at Stephen Steele suspiciously.

That probably means

——Are you serious?

"I know that this day will come sooner or later." Stephen smiled lovingly, "I have already prepared for it."

Lucy:......

Taking a deep breath, she knew she couldn't hide it anymore.

Under Stephen's doubtful eyes, Lucy walked into the bathroom, and not long after, she brought back a cloth bag.

Stephen Steele was confused and asked: "What is this?"

"Sacred bones." Lucy answered truthfully.

As she spoke, she opened the cloth bag and exposed two spines.

‘Click’

The spoon in Stephen Steele's hand suddenly fell into the bowl.

"Holy...Holy...Holy..." He pointed at the two broken bones on the table, his teeth trembling and trembling.

Suddenly, Stephen Steele suddenly stood up and closed all the curtains in the house without saying a word.

Her husband looked like he was facing a formidable enemy, which made Lucy nervous.

She was like a child who had done something wrong, sitting still.

After repeatedly confirming that there was no one else at home and no monitoring equipment, Stephen quickly returned to the dining table and asked in a low voice: "How come you have the "remains of a saint"!?"

"On the train, I overheard some information and knew that this competition was far from simple as it seemed.

After I came to Kansas City, I found a teacher who taught me lip reading. But this afternoon, I happened to see Fannie Valentine talking to his secretary."

"They said that a man named Ferdinand lost contact with them, and also said that Johnny Joestar, who was carrying the "saint's body", was difficult to deal with."

"Also, the 'Sage's Spine' is at Green Tombstone outside of Kansas City."

"Originally, these are nothing. It's just that Fannie Valentine's secretary said that you are a chess piece that can be replaced at any time. I was shocked and scared, thinking that you would be killed by them sooner or later, so I kept doing nothing and took advantage of the heavy rain.

, rushed to the 'Green Tombstone' on horseback, and happened to see the president's men lying in the grave pit holding the holy bones."

Stalking, monitoring, riding for dozens of miles in the rain, shooting, killing people and taking bones...

Is this what a serious girl should do?

After listening to Lucy's words, Stephen Steele felt numb.

So numb that I can't move at all.

He opened his mouth and was speechless.

After a long time, Stephen Steele pinched his eyebrows with a headache, "Is the pistol the one in the study?"

"yes."

"The horse you are riding is also my horse?"

"right."
