An inspiration, like a shiver rushing from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, straightened the entire spine as if it had been electrocuted, and the calm eyes became deeper, and a thousand thoughts spread out in the vast sea of brains, and the lids that drooped lazily concealed the look.But Robben still noticed Holden's abrupt expression, and instantly interpreted the deep meaning in Holden's eyes, and couldn't help but call softly."
Hoden?"
The question in the call conveyed his thoughts, and then he could see Hoden's eyelids gently raised, responding seamlessly, as if the momentary wandering just now did not exist at all, and Ray Peters did not notice it at all, but Brutus and Robben were able to catch the subtle difference.Brutus immediately asked, "Did you think of something?"
”Robben looked at him to indicate that he and Brutus were in the same mind.The curvature of the corners of Holden's mouth was still the same, and a relaxed smile flowed slightly, "There are some conjectures, but now there is a lack of evidence to support it, so let's keep the possibility open." ”It's the truth.The inspiration just now, it is true that there is not enough evidence to support it, it is purely his own crankiness, it may or may not be, but it does provide a direction for thinking, and maybe he can continue to follow the clues; However, there is no need for them to think cranky until the truth comes out.Robben was not so easily fooled, his eyes fell firmly on Holden's body, and his eyes conveyed inner firmness.But Hodden's thoughts were unmoved, and he turned to look at Ray Peters, "I need some help from you and Blue. ”Immediately afterward, Hoden began to draw the noble insignia in the void.Robben knew Holden, if Holden refused to speak, then they couldn't do anything, not to mention, Holden was always the most conscious of them, Holden always knew what he was doing and what they should do, he didn't need to worry too much.It's just that today's situation is somewhat peculiar.Robben was always faintly uneasy, the uncertain unknown and apprehension were secretly surging, the turmoil of the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of turmoil that made him unable to calm down, "Maybe I was thinking too much", from the change in the atmosphere of the academy to the unexpected discovery of dinner, too many things happened in just one day, so he couldn't control his cranky thoughts.Realizing this, Robben forcibly cut off the thoughts in his head, refocused his attention, and followed Hoden's voice to the point.At this time, Hoden had already drawn twelve noble insignia in the void, all of which were displayed in front of their eyes.Ray Peters, who is usually happy, revealed a trace of caution and rigor in his eyes, and the atmosphere became a little solemn.If Ray Peters was completely on the side of the aristocracy, and his nervousness was due to concern and concern, then Brutus's expression revealed more information.The prodigal child who is always giggling is completely gone, his deep eyes are as black as the starry sky, all the fancy emotions are all converged, showing a rare seriousness, and there is a hint of tension in the slightly frowning eyebrows, which makes the atmosphere in the room more and more tense.Woo!
The sound of the steam light rail passing through the window suddenly exploded, destroying the silence of the room, but after the sound faded away, the silence came again, mixed with the bitter cold of the night, and then the atmosphere became more and more solemn.Robben's gaze also fell on the twelve noble badges, and at this time, Thunderpeters had quickly made a mark under each badge: one badge corresponds to a nobleman, a name, and an identity, and twelve different noble identities are also presented in front of him.At the same time, there are also their titles.Even Robben, who didn't have much research on the nobility and didn't hear much about it, could see several familiar and thunderous surnames.No words, no explanations, no explanations, these names are the most powerful voices, stirring up a deafening force in the silence, striking the eardrums again and again, and even the soul trembles faintly, and then the uneasiness throughout the whole day ripples out layer by layer.Now I finally know what it means to "stir up a thousand waves with one stone".Twelve badges, no nobodies.After Repeters recognized all twelve badges, even Brutus looked at Repeters sharply, his eyes quickly skimming over the last two badges, with a hint of shock and consternation.Thunderpeters didn't speak, just lowered his eyelids, among the four people present, the impact he felt was the strongest and the greatest, his fingertips trembled uncontrollably slightly, and he still couldn't control it despite all his might, and after closing his fingertips and clenching his fists, his forearms were still trembling slightly.Brutus has got the answers he needs.Turning his head, Brutus explained to Hoden and Robben, but the voice that came out of his throat was also tinged with a little hoarseness."
Do you remember Count Giocomo?"
At the back-to-school prom, two brothers of the Giocomo family were involved in a murder case, and finally Horden found the real culprit through his own wisdom, only to learn that the Giocomo family is one of the most powerful aristocratic surnames in Iwabuchi, and even His Royal Highness the Third Prince had to sell them some face."
These last two badges represent surnames that are even older than the Giocomo family, and their history is even older than that of the Long Champ family.Of course, they are not famous now, and many people think that they have weakened, but in fact they have only moved from the light side to the dark and become a hidden family. ”"To put it simply, if these two families want to regain control of Iwabuchi, the Giocomo family will not be able to fight back at all."
Brutus doesn't go into detail about the history of the two families, because the text is too abstract and boring, and the analogy is much clearer and more straightforward.The tail of Hodden's eyebrows was slightly raised, "It shouldn't be that simple, right?"
One is the past and the other is the present. ”He is saying that the Giocomo family is now in power, how can it be easy to hand over the initiative?
Brutus smiled wryly, "The infiltration of these two families into Iwabuchi has been accumulated over many years, and even the Giocomo family is no exception.Of course, if they want to seize power, the Giocomo family will definitely not agree, and there will be a bloody storm. ”"However, you don't think the Giocomo family is their match."
Holden immediately understood, not that the Giocomo family really has no power to fight back, but that the Giocomo family may still lose, which is what Brutus really means.From the side, you can see what these two family names really mean.()
