Some things happen faster than you think.
When the public opinion gradually calmed down, Nasha, who had been quiet for many days, suddenly used the name of the Holy Religion of Light to make public what Kerry had done, including the reasons for the defeat of the old Count Hilal. For a time, Count Guaguez was also in unfavorable public opinion.
"It's simply more success than failure!" Count Guaguis threw the cup angrily.
Gabor watched from the side, with an embarrassed expression on his little face that still had a hint of baby fat: "Father..."
"Oh, my dear son..." Count Guaguez realized that he had scared Gabor: "This is not your fault, you don't need to blame yourself."
"But father, Brother Kerry didn't mean it either." Gabo was still helping to put in nice words.
Speaking of Kerry, Count Guaguez's face was very ugly: "Huh! You are still a young boy, and you dare to break off the engagement with the saint without consulting me. The defeat of the Hilal family is just a matter of time! "
"Father, please help brother Kerry again!" Gabo requested.
How could Count Guaguez still help Kerry? Now he is also trapped in the whirlpool of public opinion and cannot protect himself.
"Gabor, don't go looking for Kerry recently." Count Guargues gave the order.
Although Gabor was good friends with Kerry, he couldn't ask for anything more for him in this situation.
Kerry's situation is very passive. Now more and more people in the city are opposing him, and some people are even blocking the gate of the castle. If this continues, if the Queen hears about this, he will become the second old Earl of Hilal.
"Sir, this is today's document." The housekeeper came over, holding a stack of letters in his hand: "Sir, the outside world's opposition to you is getting louder and louder." This is not the way to go.
Kerry looked at him irritably: "Don't worry!"
"Can… "
"Put the papers here and get out."
The butler sighed leisurely, sighing in his heart that he was the butler at his best.
The words on the document were like strings of twine, disturbing Kerry's heart. Throwing down the quill in his hand irritably, Kerry stood up and fiddled with two books on the bookshelf. The bookshelf on the other side moved slowly, revealing the secret room behind it.
After Kerry walked in, the bookshelf closed. The temperature in the study slowly dissipated, as if there had never been anyone inside.
"Ayan."
Qi Yan, who had his eyes closed in the crystal coffin, suddenly heard a soft call from beside him. He opened his eyes, and Kerry's figure was reflected in his ice blue eyes.
Across the crystal coffin, Kerry was all smiles: "Sure enough, my mood improved when I saw Ayan."
"You shouldn't be here now." Qi Yan said softly: "Kerry, go clarify those rumors."
"Those are facts." Kerry smiled bitterly.
"If you don't refute, things will get worse." Qi Yan moved his fish tail. He was not in good health after not swimming for a long time: "Nasha just hopes that you won't refute and don't follow her wishes."
Kerry was silent, neither agreeing nor refuting Qi Yan's words, he just looked at Qi Yan with a faint smile.
It's like this again, Kerry always looks at him like this, saying nothing, but showing a satisfied look.
Qi Yan couldn't dislike this kind of Kerry.
- He has never received any family affection and has been beaten and humiliated. So far in his life, his only hope is Qi Yan.
"Kerry, get out."
No matter what the outcome is, he will help Kerry without any regrets.
The difference in species creates many gaps between the two that cannot be bridged.
This time Kerry left and didn't come back for a month. I don't know how he could trust a maid and let her come to bring food to Qi Yan every day. The maid was also very frightened. Every time she put down her things, she didn't dare to look at Qi Yan and left.
Qi Yan felt uncertain and wanted to go out even more. But the crystal coffin is obviously not that easy to open. Even the food trough is integrated with the crystal coffin, and there is no way out.
Qi Yan, who was getting depressed day by day, felt that his vision was a little blurry, his fish tail was not waving often, and it was a little stiff.
On this day, the maid still came to deliver food, and Qi Yan quickly stopped her when she was about to leave.
"I won't make it difficult for you. You just need to tell Kerry that I want to see him."
The maid nodded casually, and then left quickly. Qi Yan didn't know if she told Kerry. Anyway, Kerry didn't come.
The next day, he still didn't come.
It wasn't until another week that Kerry reappeared in the secret room.
"Kerry!" Qi Yan's eyes widened when he saw him.
"Ayan." Kerry responded. He did not immediately go to the crystal coffin. Instead, he came to an oil painting on the other side, took it off the wall, and walked out of a small mechanism inside.
Kerry took a deep breath, his eyes full of complicated emotions, but he still put his hand over it without hesitation, gently turned the mechanism, and the crystal on the top of the crystal coffin slowly moved away.
Shock hit him overwhelmingly, and Qi Yan felt that Kerry... was probably going to die.
"Ayan, leave here for a while and never come back."
Kerry's urgent instructions came from above his head. Regardless of his soaked clothes, he took Qi Yan out of the crystal coffin.
"Never go back to this sea area, you know?"
"Kerry, what happened?" Being held in his arms, Qi Yan grabbed Kerry's sleeve: "Tell me, what happened!"
"Nasha and Tom are together." At this point, Kerry's voice revealed a trace of hatred.
I thought I could take revenge on Tom by putting him under my nose, but I didn't expect that he colluded with Nasha and told Nasha about the mermaid...
They used this incident to make a big fuss, spreading rumors that the Kree imprisoned other races and involved a race war. This matter reached the Queen's ears, and she wanted to bring someone to investigate thoroughly.
If Qi Yan is discovered, he will be sent to a museum.
Kerry knew that he was finished. Without the blessing of Count Guaguez, his journey as a count has come to an end.
-However, he has no regrets.
It's still the familiar road, go out from the side door and go straight to the beach. The rock is still standing there without any change.
Putting Qi Yan into the sea, Kerry's heart and eyes were full of reluctance, but there was nothing he could do.
"Ayan, I..." opened his mouth, thousands of words were choked in his throat, and finally turned into three words -
"sorry."
It felt very good to be back in the sea, but Qi Yan did not leave. Instead, he raised his head and looked at Kerry as if he had met him for the first time. Although his ice blue eyes were indifferent, they were extremely serious.
"Kerry, I'm leaving, and so are you."
If the Queen knew that Kerry killed the old earl, his fate would only be one life for another.
