  Chapter 19 Salvation

   Monday, July 24

  Verak spent two days like a walking dead.

  This weekend, Fletcher still guides him all day long, and will still go out impatiently from time to time, but because Dempsey is always by his side, he has no chance to sneak into the study through the window to steal information from Chris.

If things go on like this, there is absolutely no way out. Maybe one day he will run into a joint rebel organization when he goes out. At that time, he will not know anything. After being found out, the situation will be 10,000 times worse than it is now, and he will not even think about turning over again. .

   But now all he can do is to act during the day, recall the layout of Carmine's study in his mind at night, and guess where there is the most likely hidden compartment. Because there is no opportunity to explore and advance the plan on the ground, all the things that have been planned can only be deduced back and forth in the mind.

  It feels like the same article needs to be read hundreds of times every day, and the more you read it, the more bored you will be. This led to Veraker's state getting worse and worse, and he was completely unable to concentrate on planning for the future under extreme irritability. In the end, he simply ignored these things and put the breakthrough point on Dempsey.

At present, after contacting him, he has confirmed that Dempsey betrayed him, so in the cruel moment where it is either you die or I die, he does not need to worry about the old relationship anymore, and directly finds a way to get rid of Dempsey who has become an enemy, and broaden his display Space is fine.

   As for how to get rid of Dempsey, Verac already has some clues.

  I don't have the ability to take action against Dempsey at all now, and it is impossible for Fletcher and the Thomas family to intervene. The only way left is to use more external forces—rebel organizations.

  On Sunday night, Veraker wrote a note saying that he was under the control of the family, and the family even sent a man named Dempsey to act as a bodyguard on the surface, but actually secretly monitored him. It is inconvenient for him to take action himself, and he needs the rebel organization to help him get rid of Dempsey in a subtle way.

  Verak is confident that as long as he goes out, the rebel organization will find ways to arrange people to contact him, and it will not be difficult to pass the note on when the time comes. And as an organization that has been able to survive tenaciously in Laizein for so long, it is even easier to get rid of a little Dempsey.

  As for why he should be obscure, this is also what Fletcher taught him.

  Assassination is carried out on the surface, and the party whose interests are damaged will inevitably find the reason. If Veraker is linked with the rebel organization, it will be troublesome to attract the attention of the Thomas family. As long as there is an accidental death, even if the timing is too coincidental, it is not easy to think that Veraker has a strong connection when he first arrives.

  In the early morning of this day, after Dempsey entered the room, Verac greeted him with a smile.

  Verak knew everything, and Dempsey didn't know that Veraker had seen through his tricks and even helped him set the date of death.

  The two had their own thoughts, and pretended to be close friends, chatting trivially.

   "I should be able to go out today." Dempsey said.

"why?"

   Dempsey was already sitting at the desk very familiarly, flipping through the things on it casually: "Did you forget? Fletcher said before that he would arrange for us to go out to play and get some fresh air."

   "That's a good thing." Verak said, "I'm almost suffocated to stay here all day. By the way, do you know where I'm going?"

"Go to Clay—oh, how can I know where to go? Anyway, it depends on Fletcher's arrangement." Dempsey was a little unnatural, he stood up and stretched himself, "Speaking of which, the weather today is really good... "

   "Yeah, it's a good day to go out." Verak pretended not to hear anything unusual.

   Not long after, Fletcher came in and informed them that they could go out for a trip today. He would not follow him, but planned today's travel route for them.

  Today they can take a special car to go to the three famous scenic spots of Clayton Garden, People's Square and Monse Palace.

   When Veraker heard the news from Fletcher, he didn't react at all, but silently agreed. Because he really didn't know how to behave, he had to pretend to be more relaxed and natural when he was with Demps these few days, and he was more melancholy when he was with Fletcher, and his whole body was almost full of energy split.

   Fortunately, Fletcher did not have any doubts about Veraker's performance.

   The two got into the back seat of the special car followed by Fletcher.

   "Master Chris, take a break and relax, it will be good for your recovery." Fletcher stood by the car and said with concern.

   "Thank you, Fletcher." Verac nodded slightly.

  The car started and drove to the first destination, Clayton Garden.

  When he first arrived in Laizein, Fletcher told him about Clayton Garden, which has a beautiful scenery and is the most frequent place for residents of Laizein to relax during their breaks.

   "It's so nice, this place." On the way, Dempsey was completely attracted by the tall buildings outside which Veraker didn't think was a big deal.

  Villac reached into his pocket and grabbed the note. The note was so thick and hot, as soon as he grasped it, he felt his heart was pulled: "Dempsey."

   "Huh?" Dempsey didn't look back.

   "Do you think this place is better, or the place where you lived before?" Veraker turned his head and stared at Dempsey's back and asked.

   "Of course it's better here." Dempsey replied without thinking.

  Verak's eyes were a little unbearable, he pursed his lips, and said after a long time: "If you were given a chance to choose, would you choose to go back to the past, or enjoy the present?"

  Hearing this, Dempsey finally turned his head and looked at Veraker: "K...Master Chris, why do you ask such a question?"

   "I'm a little tired of this kind of life, so I want to hear your opinion." Verak maintained a gentle face.

   "I will enjoy now." Dempsey said.

  Verak lowered his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "I remember you have a friend named Nord. You came to Lazein together, right?"

   "...um." Dempsey didn't understand why Veraker mentioned Nord.

"He told me before that you don't think there is any difference between expensive wine and cheap wine, and you never envy the lives of nobles and rich people. You are a big brother with a knife mouth and a bean curd heart. People who are not ordinary and see through the essence of life." Verak felt that he could not control his facial expressions.

   Dempsey didn't notice the slightest difference, he paused: "Nord and... told you this about me?"

   "Of course." Verak smiled, his eyes were a little sore, "It's not just him, I always think you are like this."

   "Thank you for your approval, Master Chris."

   "Master Chris..." Verac laughed at himself, "...will you still be that kind of person?"

   "Of course." Dempsey nodded grandly, "I will be a person who satisfies you."

  Verak's sudden angina was almost unbearable. He endured the pain, smiled, and pointed out from Dempsey's side: "It's so beautiful outside..."

   Dempsey looked in the direction Veraker pointed, and there were only a few passersby outside, and the gray sky was nothing special. When he turned around and looked at Veraker again, he saw Veraker facing the other side of the car window, leaving him behind without saying a word.
