Even though Nair didn't say anything, Hodden was able to make simple calculations.In order to take care of his younger brother, Nair kept most of his salary and only traveled with the most basic expenses, but Tuno's consumption level was only higher than that of Iwabuchi, and he didn't need to ask at all to imagine how Nair spent his busy life on business trips.After returning home, the first thing Nair did was to be concerned about Holden's condition.It's become a habit for Nair.Facing the worry on Nair's face, Hodden smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is what I earned through legitimate means." ”Then, Hodden explained the ins and outs in the most concise words.But Nair's brow was still tightly locked, without the slightest youthful vigor of a twenty-four-year-old, and the weight of life forced him to mature early."
Isn't there any danger?"
Nair said worriedly, "Are you sure there's no danger?"
Is it really no problem for you to meddle in the affairs of the security team like this?
”Hodden brought up Issa's request, "I'm just acting as an advisor.Even if I wanted to go to the front, they wouldn't agree. ”Nair nodded in agreement: although the detection rate is very low, the vigilantes still have a lot of power within the city, and they really don't like to be dictated.Despite this, Nair still didn't look happy, just shook his head lightly in frustration, "That's not right.Holden, it should be my responsibility to make money, you just need to concentrate on your studies.You shouldn't worry about all this stuff. ”A trace of self-reproach slipped through the depths of his eyes.Perhaps, it was in order to share the burden of his brother that Horgan Harrow went to apply for a part-time job, and then he met Samuel, but he didn't expect to lose his life.On the surface, Horden still did not reveal his emotions, but smiled and launched a small rebuttal, "This should be our shared responsibility."
You don't want me to be a nerd who doesn't know anything, do you?
Nair, I'm an adult in three months, and I should learn to grow up. ”If it was before, Hoden wouldn't have spoken to himself like this, but now......
Nair raised his head and looked at his brother quietly through the light, only to find that Howlen's green eyebrows were slightly stretched, and there was a touch of resolute determination between his eyebrows, a little unfamiliar, more familiar, which reminded him of his mother in his childhood memories.Nair showed a touch of helplessness, a little sad, "I wish you could be carefree forever." ”As for those bad things, leave it to him to worry about.They all need to learn to grow up, especially in this era of undercurrents.Even the former "Holden Herlo", he has grown up, he may be stronger and more mature than Nair and Holden imagined, but he has disappeared like a wisp of green smoke.The vigilantes' case against Viscount Philo did not mention Holden or Samuel at all, and no one has found Holden here so far.On the positive side, at least prove that Hoden is safe now; But on the negative side, they have been forgotten.For the first time, Hoden wanted to dig up the truth, not just to get home, but also to give "Hoden Herlo" an answer.Hodden didn't let Nair continue to soak up his emotions, his eyes drifting towards the bed, "So, what's that?"
”Sure enough, Nair's attention shifted, completely forgetting the topic he was pursuing before, and took the initiative to walk over, and brought the well-packed paper bag over, and did not sell it, and took the initiative to say, "'Anecdote of the Chaos Era' and 'Chronicles of the Sykpace Academy—That Forgotten Years'." ”"Hah!"
Holden couldn't help but open his mouth, and the eyes and corners of his mouth revealed irrepressible joy - emotions from the heart, indeed happy.Because of Holden's cheerful mood, Nair also laughed, "I also said that I grew up, but I turned out to be a child." ”"I know you've been coveting these two books for a long, long time; Moreover, this is also the bibliography of the first year of Sekpe Academy, which happened to be seen in the second-hand bookstore in Tuno, and it is basically eighty percent new, so I bought it as your entrance gift. ”Nair handed the paper bag to Howlen.Before returning home, Nair did not know that Howlen had received a small sum of money, and he was always worried about Hoden's tuition for his first semester.Scholarships that require luck aside, teaching books need to be purchased each semester, which is a lot of money.Nair was always thinking about it, so when he saw the right book, which happened to be what the nerd Haddon liked, he bought it without saying a word.The price was to nibble on bread for three days in a row, but now seeing his brother's heartfelt joy, Nair was also happy.For Hodden, he is in dire need of more books to learn about the world, and tomorrow he is preparing to go to the Iwabuchi Library to find a needle in a haystack; And Nair gave away two books, which is undoubtedly very appropriate, and the mood is brighter."
By the way, guess who's on the scholarship waitlist?"
Feeling the care from Nair, even Holden's emotions are much brighter - of course, part of the reason is acting, after all, he has already exposed his flaws in front of Guzmin, and he doesn't want Nair to join the ranks of doubts.Nair's young and mature face also showed a look of surprise, "Really?
”Then I saw the bright smile in Holden's eyes.Nair couldn't help but chuckle lowly, "Great, that's great."
I knew you could do it.I knew it. ”Nair strode around the desk and gave Hoden a heavy hug.The over-exertion made Hodden a little breathless, but he could really feel Nair's excitement, and his body trembled uncontrollably.Originally, Nair wanted to become a psyker and his dream was to join St.
Cray's College; But jobs for psykers are dwindling, and the future is slim.In order to ease the burden on Aunt Arlo and to shoulder the burden of Hodden's future, Nair abandoned Sekpace College and applied instead to Etias University, the best research school in the Norse continent, leading in liberal arts, science, and engineering, and eventually became an accountant.Immediately after graduating, he found a job and successfully became independent with Horden.The dream he was forced to give up is now being realized through his younger brother, and the mixed and turbulent emotions are difficult to express in words.Nair didn't want to reveal his vulnerability, so he hugged Holden like this, didn't say anything, just hugged hard.Holden, who was born in China, doesn't like such a direct and hot physical reason, hug?
In his memory, it really never happened; But at this time, he could clearly feel Nair's turbulent emotions, and after a moment of hesitation, he still lowered his arm: he was not able to hug Nair, but he did not push Nair away.()
