(Two chapters in one)

...

When the big man looked at this arm, he laughed directly and screamed: "Are you sure? I'm afraid I'll break your little arm. ”

"Then you come, break me and take your surname directly." Lorna has no regrets about her noble dragon surname, and she doesn't know how her father will feel if he finds out.

"Hehe, let you know today that the sky is high and the earth is thick!" When it came to this, the big man was not polite, and directly lifted his sleeves, revealing muscular arms thicker than Lorna's small waist, and there were actually crazy and cool dragon tattoos on them.

Lorna was stunned when she saw it: "What are you doing with a lizard tattoo on your arm?" ”

"you! Lao Tzu is tattooed with a dragon! The big man patted his arm vigorously and grinned, "Don't you understand?" I've heard that the dragon knights of the Regnome family sign a contract with the dragon to tattoo their dragon on their arms to show that they are of the same soul and blood, so as to gain great power! ”

Lorna thought to herself: Is there such a thing? How did I not know.

After the two of them pulled the skin, they clasped their palms and stood on the table.

Lorna's smile grew worse and worse, and she began the countdown: "Three, two, one." ”

The big man shouted: "Give it to me!" ”

"Boom!" Suddenly, Dahan only felt a chill in his right arm, and there was a violent feeling of weightlessness all over his body, not only his wrist was knocked down, but the whole person was also thrown up and fell to the table.

Dahan woke up after a coma for three seconds, his face was pale and he covered his arms and muttered, "I... I can't feel my arms anymore..."

"Bear with me, it will hurt a little." Lorna pressed down on Dahan's joints and pushed the dislocated place back with precise force.

"Click." The joint was reset, and Dahan's arm was able to move.

"Convinced?" Lorna smirked.

The big man sat on the ground, touched the back of his head, and couldn't cry or laugh: "What's going on in this world now?" Why is it that the more beautiful people are, the more powerful they are... So you are, and so is the Chino Administrator. ”

As soon as he heard Chino's name, Solandale suddenly asked curiously, "What kind of person is the administrator of Chino in your eyes?" ”

As soon as Dahan heard this question, he immediately showed a mysterious smile: "You two are not locals, are you?" It's impossible for a local to ask such a question. ”

Although Solandale was punctured, she was very calm and smiled calmly: "That's right, we are outsiders, and we have come to play in Twilight City." ”

The strong man seemed to remember something bad, sat back in his seat, shook his head and sighed, and said: "Twilight City is actually not a good place, the area is remote, next to the desert, all kinds of people come and go, the law and order is very chaotic, and it was once one of the main cities that outsiders hate the most. ”

"Not to mention the original officials of Twilight, where the power of the Trojans is deeply entrenched, and the former administrator, Huck Lorrison... Oh, the last name is Lorrison, but it's actually a dog from Troy! ”

As soon as she heard the word "Troy", Lorna's original giggling appearance suddenly disappeared, her face sank significantly, and her eyes were gloomy as if she had dissolved poison.

Solandale seemed to know why, and gently took her hand from under the table, trying to change the subject: "There's nothing to say about the past, by the way, Twilight lately..."

Lorna silently interrupted, "It's okay, go ahead and talk about it." ”

The strong man didn't pay much attention to this little episode, and he didn't notice the change in Lorna's expression much, and continued: "In short, Huck is a rotten person, not only neglecting government affairs, but also having a disgusting fetish, and he likes the kind of little girl who hasn't grown up yet. It is said that he specially collected a lot of little girls or baby girls who lived on the streets, raised them, and then..."

The strong man shook his head, unable to continue.

Solandale tightened her fists, and her face was not very good: "Where is the local ombudsman?" When you encounter this kind of thing, shouldn't you report it to the Provincial Governor's Office as soon as possible?! ”

The strong man shrugged: "I said, Twilight City is Troy's territory, the former military commander Brooke Troy is the real boss, and the other eight officials, including the Inspector, are his dogs." Have you ever seen a dog dare to bite its owner?

Solandale asked, "No one wants to come forward?" There has never been an upright official? ”

"It's not that there have been no administrators with righteous conduct, but these people either 'drowned in swimming', or 'stumbled' and fell off the balcony, and one administrator 'choked to death' while eating..."The strong man laughed coldly twice, "Hehe, Brooke has too many ways to deal with people who don't cooperate with him. ”

Solandale pursed her lips vigorously and whispered, "I never knew these things before..."

The strong man didn't understand the deep meaning of her words, and his tone slowly became high: "You are outsiders, and it's normal for you to not know about the affairs of Twilight City. In short, the former Twilight City was a rotten land, and offending Brooke was a dead end, nothing more than a direct death, or the difference between life and death. ”

"But when the Chino administrator came, everything changed! Especially last year's Grace Day banquet, ha! Brooke's scum has been blown up! It's rare for visitors from outside the world to do a good thing! ”

Solandelle blinked and asked curiously, "Executive Chino is very different from Executive Huck?" ”

"Little girl, don't ask this kind of question to anyone else, or you'll be taken for a fool. Comparing the two of them together is nothing short of an insult to Chino's administrator! The strong man wrinkled his nose and deliberately put on a cold and stinky face, "You know, most nobles have this expression when they see commoners, as if they owe them money, as if they are dirty to talk to you. ”

"But the magistrate of Chino is different, he always smiles, whether he is facing nobles, commoners, or slaves, he is always polite and respectful to everyone."

A woman next to her helped: "Last time I set up a stall on the street, the carriage of the magistrate of Chino passed by, and the horse was frightened for some reason and knocked over my stall, and he came down directly to apologize to me and compensate for all the losses." ”

"If you want to change to other nobles, heh, maybe you will complain that my stall is in the way, and it would be good if I didn't let the servants teach me a lesson."

A veteran with a scar on his face who looked like he had experienced the war lifted his trouser leg to reveal a prosthetic leg, which he removed and placed on the table: "Lao Tzu used to be a centurion in Twilight, and he lost a leg in the war, and this dog thing Huck deliberately accused me of not fighting well and expelled me from the army, just to save those thousands of copper months of pension." ”

"After the administrator of Chino took office, he made a special investigation of these things, not only came to comfort the veterans in person, but also made up everyone's pension. So, you're going to ask me what I think of the two administrators? That's what I'll tell you, he-tui! This phlegm is given to Huck Lorrisson, wishing him a happy life in Hell. ”

The veteran then raised his glass and shouted, "May the Chino administrator live forever!" ”

One person raised a glass, and everyone responded, and everyone shouted "May he live forever" one after another.

The strong man grinned at Solandale, "As you can see." We don't know why the Chino administrator is so good to the commoners, maybe it's for his career, maybe it's to buy people's hearts, maybe it's really good character... We don't need to know that. Our principle is simple – we respect whoever respects us, and Administrator Chino is the one who deserves our respect. ”

Solandelle pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, two small dimples appeared on her cheeks, obviously proud of having such a friend.

"Come on, drink! Let's wish him forever! Lorna poured herself a full glass of wine and toasted with the group, smiling happily, admiring what Chino had done, and partly as long as Solandelle was happy, she was happy.

...

After drinking, the time was not early, and the two left the tavern to prepare to return to the mansion.

Solandale took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, with a sweet smile on her face, looking at the sky and saying to herself: "It's so good~"

"Huh?" Lorna tilted her head, "What's so good?" ”

Solandelle grabbed Lorna's arm and said happily, "I mean, it's good to know Chino~"

Lorna turned her back, her tone obviously sulking, "I've known you for so long, you've never said that about me..."

Solandale knew that the little vinegar jar had been overturned again.

Of course, the coping method has long been mastered.

"Okay, I'll say it now! It's good to know Lorna~" Solandelle jumped in front of Lorna, held her face, and tiptoed to kiss her face, "mua~"

"It's pretty much the same~" Lorna giggled like a child who had been rewarded, and for a moment made people wonder who was 12 years old.

"Solan, I don't think it's too early, or we..." Before Lorna could finish speaking, her eyes suddenly froze, and she pounced on Solandelle, "Be careful!! ”

"Boom—" The horse's hooves thundered.

A cavalry contingent ran through the narrow streets, the horses' hooves kicking up a cloud of mud on the road after the rain, scattering the crowd and scattering the crowd, knocking over many roadside stalls, and mixing exclamations, cursing, and crying, all muffled by the sound of horses' hooves.

The cavalry at the front of the road kicked the horse's belly wildly, and kept dispersing the crowd with a long whip: "Administrator aisle, retreat immediately!" Get out of the way! ”

Solandale was in the middle of the road and was nearly hit by a horse, but Lorna picked her up just in time.

After the two stood firmly, they looked at it, this is obviously a pedestrian commercial area, except in wartime, horses are forbidden to pass on weekdays, why are there cavalry running here? And they still say that it is "the aisle of the administrator"... Could it be Chino?

The vanguard cavalry dispersed the crowd to the sides of the street, and the ranks behind had noticeably slowed down, and well-armed guards rode through, their horses wagging their tails and pulling down their manure from time to time, exuding a disgusting aura.

In the center of the procession, a sword-eyed man riding a tall white horse, wearing an administrator's uniform, with a cold gaze, ignored the whispering civilians around him, and just rode slowly with his chin held high arrogantly.

"I've seen him," a foreign merchant frowned, muttering, "Thundercloud City's new administrator, Grabo Troy." ”

Lorna looked coldly at the Trojan sword and shield banners, her fists clenched, and the tense joints were white.

Grabo caught a chance glimpse of Lona, and his gaze began to focus, and his eyes grew angry, as if angered by Rona's eyes.

Lorna's eyes were like ice, and she looked at Grabo without flinching, and there seemed to be an invisible burst of fire in the air.

Suddenly, a faint cry sounded, attracting everyone's attention.

I saw a woman kneeling on the side of the road, holding the injured little boy in her arms, judging from the abrasions on his face, he should have been knocked down by a horse just now, although his life was not in danger, but he was afraid that he would leave an ugly scar on his face.

The woman wiped the blood and mud from the face of the crying child with a handkerchief, and sobbed in a low voice: "Why are you riding a horse here... It's a pedestrian zone, you can't ride a horse..."

Grabo's eyes widened with rage, and he pointed at the woman with a long whip in his hand, and his voice was cold: "Are you expressing your displeasure with me, civilian? ”

Although the woman was sad and angry, she obviously didn't dare to anger Grabo, and the people didn't fight with the officials, not to mention that she was still a lord from a royal family.

The woman hugged the child tightly, lowered her head and said in a trembling voice: "I don't, my lord, I'm not dissatisfied..."

Grabo let out a sigh through his nose and said indifferently, "Kneel down and apologize, you can go." ”

As the words fell, the Trojan guards gathered around the woman, condescending and threatening her.

Even though the passers-by next to him were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to make a head bird on this occasion, and secretly went to the Sheriff's Office to report the news, and most of them were still watching in place, cursing in their hearts at most.

Surrounded by guards, the woman had never seen this scene, she froze in place, her reaction was only half a beat slower, and the long whip was already whipped on her face with a "swish", and a hideous blood mark was drawn out in the exclamation of the crowd.

"Can't hear me?!" Grabo raised his hand again and whipped the child in her arms again.

"No—" The woman screamed as she protected the child, subconsciously closing her eyes.

"Smack!"

There was the sound of flesh thrashing, but there was no pain...

The woman subconsciously opened her eyes and found that the whip had been grabbed by someone in the air, and it was a lame old man who came to her aid, it was the veteran that Lorna and the others had just met in the tavern.

The old soldier grabbed the whip hard, and his hands were strangled with deep blood marks, and he kept dripping blood, as if he didn't feel pain, and said coldly: "It's almost enough." ”

Grabo twitched the muscles in his face and pulled the whip back sharply, and the veteran was lame, so naturally he couldn't resist him, and he was immediately dragged to the ground.

The veteran didn't have much expression on his face, just put his hand in his mouth, pulled down the crooked front teeth, "tui" spat blood foam, and said expressionlessly: "May death take your life." ”

The anger in Grabo's eyes was extremely strong, he pinned the whip to his waist, drew his saber with his backhand and pointed at the veteran: "Begging for mercy, maybe I will give you a way to live." ”

The veteran didn't say anything, just spat and spit.

Grabo kicked the horse's belly hard, and was about to swing his knife to destroy the veteran's arm, when suddenly a shout came from behind him: "Stop! ”

Solandale stepped out of the crowd and looked directly at Grabo, "You're not doing the right thing. ”

"You're teaching me how to do things?!" Being pointed at by someone from below makes Grabo furious.

"I'm just telling you the basic principle, you don't have the power to hurt them." Solandale looked calm and said unhurriedly, "According to the Code of Doguland, they are all citizens and enjoy the most basic right to life, and even nobles cannot harm them without cause. ”

"You're going to talk to me about the Kingdom Code?" As if he had heard something very funny, Grabo slowly rode over his horse, his tone quite arrogant, "My father was one of the consuls of the royal city of the cardinal province, and he once led a full army to annihilate five times the enemy of his own army in the "Laurel War" 27 years ago, and was personally named a war hero by the current king. ”

"Who is your father?"
