"I'm glad you are willing to talk. I assure you that the content of this conversation is only between the two of us." Kraft made hot tea and moved an armchair with cushions and armrests. "Coop, for the time being.
Can you please leave for a while? Remember to close the door when you go out."
Considering the taste, he added two spoons of honey to one cup and pushed it to the other person, "Relax, no matter what it is, it will not have any impact on the good relationship between us. I will only look at it from the perspective of therapeutic needs."
He adjusted his expression and put on a suitable smile that was gentle but not contemptuous.
It's not difficult. As long as you follow your inner feelings, you will be able to smile naturally. Everything has been going smoothly recently. The demonstration of ether anesthesia technology was a great success. Taking advantage of the momentum of the operation, the first achievement of the society since its establishment was also launched, artificial pneumothorax.
technique.
The authority to call funds has also been gradually released to him. He can withdraw money directly from Rivers University, and the amount is hard not to laugh. If necessary, he can even request some assistance that is not limited to financial aspects, and use physical means to solve the problem as appropriate.
The word "discretionary" is worthy of consideration, but Martin's position seems to have been promoted recently. I believe that in the Westminster world, he will definitely favor the Society as appropriate.
The only person worth worrying about is Yin Feng, but now it seems that things have suddenly turned around, and perhaps the information she provided can provide some help for the condition.
"Don't worry, I don't have anything to do. You can speak slowly." Kraft took a sip of hot tea, put a plate of biscuits on the table, put the to-be-processed items in the drawer, and made a scene for afternoon tea.
Posture, try your best to lighten the atmosphere.
In fact, as a rising star in the academic world, there is a mountain of things waiting to be dealt with. After the party presentation, there was no need to wait for the next day. A large number of letters were delivered to the residence that night, including invitations from various individuals and groups, as well as wishes.
Take the internal route to schedule treatment requests.
Letters can be processed at any time, and it is rare for Yin Feng to be willing to take the initiative.
Besides, he didn't think it would be something that would require much energy. The girl had always seemed mature, sensible, and independent-minded, and a little outside help was enough to get her out of her psychological shadow.
Kraft looked at her with encouraging eyes, waiting for Yin Feng to speak.
"Whatever?"
In such an environment, the girl was still a little nervous. She held the cup firmly with her ten fingers, giving people the illusion that the cup wall was slightly cracked by pinching.
"Of course, no matter what it is." Kraft said solemnly and looked at him candidly. He hardly thought about it. After all, from his point of view, no matter how big the matter was, it couldn't be too big.
Yin Feng was encouraged by his attitude. She observed Kraft's expression and could not find any hidden meaning.
The whisperer chattering in her mind seemed to have read her thoughts. The amount of information was instantly denser by an order of magnitude. It was as if she had transferred from an empty room to a conference venue. Everyone was whispering in low voices, and all the voices were repeating a message:
【leave!】
No, Yin Feng refused in her heart. She was sure that was not her idea. She hoped for something beyond common sense to gain the initiative over her destiny, but if it intended to interfere with her own will, it would go against the original intention. She
Never give in to this.
Blowing on the rising hot air, inhaling a sip of tea to moisten her throat, she straightened herself up and spoke the first sentence of the day with a slight nervousness.
"Professor Brimmer is dead."
"He deserves it." Kraft commented, feeling relieved a lot. If Yin Feng's problem was just guilt about Brimmer's death, that would be easy to solve.
"You probably don't know that Brimmer was the culprit who caused all this, which directly led to the death of more than ten people and the disappearance of several others."
"No matter what the reason for his death is, it will be considered an advantage for him. If there is a hell, and the soul is roasted by flames in the deepest soup pot until the world is destroyed, there is no way to offset this crime."
"Do you really think that?"
"no doubt."
"That's great." Yin Feng's expression became firm, he sat up straight and placed the tea cup upright on the table.
"I killed him."
"This is not a big deal...ah?" Kraft was just about to confirm the legitimacy of her actions in a timely manner, but his brain, which was still running, briefly shut down after saying these words again.
They are all words that are very clear to hear, but when put together, it makes people feel that they heard something wrong.
"I killed Professor Brimmer." Seeing that he didn't seem to understand, Yin Feng repeated it thoughtfully and added the exact name.
"ah?"
The development of the situation was obviously a bit unexpected. The professor thoroughly analyzed the possible ambiguities in the short sentence such as grammar, similar-sounding words, and the same name. In the end, he was sure that it did mean what he thought.
This seems to explain why Yin Feng, who has always been relatively mature, is unwilling to be honest with him from the beginning.
Faced with a guardian and teacher who has returned from a business trip, no one will rush to report that he has done something shocking and put an extra burden on the other person's heart and brain.
Even so, he still held on to his last hope.
"If your actions indirectly led to Brimmer's death, there is no need to feel pressure. In that case, his death is inevitable, and dying earlier might have reduced the torture."
As a channel for fungi to invade the human world, the caster will bear the brunt and be corrupted by the proliferation of fungi. The most frightening thing is that, as far as the preacher is concerned, his consciousness is still alive during this process.
"I'll kill him, use this." Yin Feng took out the dagger from his skirt, held the leather sheath and handed it to Kraft.
Although the appearance has changed drastically, the weapon can still be recognized from its appearance. It came from the depths of the southern hills and almost took the lives of all those who stayed behind. The blade is now polished and even colder.
He realized that every second of his hesitation now was a form of denial.
"Brimmer, he deserves to die." Kraft took the dagger and pulled out a section. There seemed to be a trace of rust in the sheath due to the inexperience of the wiper.
There are not many weapons in this world that have only seen blood once.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He began to recall whether there was a problem with his initial impression, or whether his inadvertent neglect caused the current thorny problem.
There is no doubt that Yin Feng did everything right. If Kraft was present, it would only make things worse. Then he poured two cans of kerosene to disinfect him. But this was definitely not something a normal person of the same age could do.
After playing with the dagger for a while, he decided to return it to its original owner. Whether he had the dagger in his hand was not the key to the problem.
"You are very brave, but I don't want you to put yourself in danger." Kraft finalized the nature of the matter.
It is foreseeable that he will have to manage an entire academic organization in the future, with a complex staff. But at present, the training expectations of the only two people under him who are paid a salary have a faint tendency to escape control, and this feeling is getting stronger and stronger.
Kupu is willing to follow the most direct path and gain merit on the battlefield; while Yin Feng's goal should be to follow him and learn with peace of mind.
It hasn't even been a year yet.
"I want to help you." She raised her head and looked squarely at the man who had been trying to extend a non-existent childhood for several months. She took the dagger and put it back in her waist, "Just like Coop."
"I'm glad you think so, but it's not the time yet." The study tour south is about to reach its end. There is the center of the cobweb that clues point to, the origin of the black liquid incident. He will build momentum in Westminster and fully After expanding the current influence, find an entry point to go there.
Of course, there is absolutely no place for Yin Feng in the plan. It is best for her to stay in the safe circle and receive regular reviews.
"Killing a Brimer doesn't mean anything, and it doesn't mean you have the power to match a real professional trainee. Besides..." Kraft wanted to correct this mistake.
The cup on the table was pushed forward.
Its capacity is relatively small, but after a few sips it is still overflowing, and the full tension liquid level is slightly higher than the rim of the cup. The wall of the cup is crumpled and sunken like waste paper, and tiny fingerprints are pressed into the silver pattern.
