Count of Monte Cristo

When Lin Ke woke up, he found Edmond beside him, but he didn't care, they were very familiar after all.But now he is in a bit of a dilemma. He didn't know what kind of strange dream he had last night. He felt very comfortable in the dream, but when he woke up, he forgot everything. He only remembered the feeling.

Christmas is over!The following days are going to be busy days.

Edmond was still asleep, his brows were not tightly wrinkled, and Edmond's face was very pale. Lin Ke guessed that it was because he hadn't seen the sun for more than ten years in death row.In fact, Edmond was very handsome, with deep eyes shining with wisdom, a high nose bridge, three-dimensional features, extremely pale complexion, healthy and strong limbs, and extremely charming in every move.

Probably because Lin Ke's gaze was too intense, Edmond also woke up.

"Morning, dear baby," said Edmund.

Lin Ke also replied with a smile, "Morning, dear Beibei."

"You look so handsome today! Babe!"

"You too, baby."

The two joked with each other, and then got up with a smile. Lin Ke climbed out of bed first. He had to get over Edmond's body to get out of bed. He unconsciously turned over on Edmond's body, and then half of his body faced Look for his shoes under the bed.

Edmund's eyes were deep, and one hand slowly stroked his back. Lin Ke felt itchy, and then he turned his head with a smile, "Do you still want to eat spicy strips today?" He still remembered Edmund at dinner last night Meng asked him, when will the spicy strips be made for him to taste?

Unexpectedly, Edmund's eyes froze, and he suddenly stretched out his arms to hug him, and turned Lin Ke face to face with him.

Edmond's eyes were dark and mysterious, filled with endless emotions!

Lin Ke's mouth suddenly went dry!

He felt uneasy, Edmund's hand was pinching his shoulders, getting tighter and tighter, Edmund's face was getting closer to him, their breaths intertwined, close and audible, and their breathing became more rapid.Lin Ke saw Edmond's face contorted and painful for a moment...

Suddenly Edmund pushed him away!

Then turned over and got out of bed, and left!

Lin Ke stayed on the bed silently, then touched his face, it was so hot.He took several deep breaths to stop the frantic heartbeat.

Lin Ke jumped out of bed and opened the curtains. The weather outside was very good, and the festive atmosphere had not been completely discarded. Some people were still immersed in the sweet dreams of last night.

After Christmas, it's time for people to start working.

Edmond decided to go to Caderousse.

He went to the mayor first. Although he had learned the truth from Priest Faria, he still wanted to go there to read his file, and he also wanted to know what happened to the prison after he escaped from the prison of Château d'If. What did the people around me say.It is best to find some paper evidence so that you can do the next step of deployment yourself.The most important thing is that he needs to know the situation of Menglian Company in detail. No one knows the situation of a company better than a mayor, and he also knows that the mayor is also a creditor of Menglian Company?A creditor is most concerned about his own property.

Edmund dressed up as a banker.

He didn't let Lin Ke go with him, and Lin Ke avoided him a little recently.

Although they still eat and study together, Lin Ke's eyes are always a little evasive, and there is always a trace of embarrassment spreading when the two get along. They are obviously still smiling at the next moment, but they will stop laughing uncomfortably at the next moment.Edmund took a deep breath at this thought, he thought he needed to slow down a bit, this speed might frighten the boy.

When Edmund was going out, he ran into Lin Ke.

"Are you going out?" Linke asked shyly.

"Yes. Are you going to watch Molière's play today?" After receiving Lin Ke's affirmative answer, Edmund continued, "If you want, you can wait for me to come back and watch it together. Of course, if you want to If you appreciate it, I won’t force it.”

Lin Ke muttered, "I'll wait for you, when are you coming back?"

Edmund pondered, "This afternoon, read this book first." Edmond returned to the room, and after a while he took a book and handed it to Lin Ke.

Lin Ke looked at the title of the book, and his head grew big—"Elements of Geometry"!

Holding it, Lin Ke felt that he was holding a college entrance examination paper, and that feeling was really sour.

Edmund nodded to him, and left.

Lin Ke held a hot potato in his hand, wanted to throw it away but didn't dare, so he had to take it back to the room, and then flipped through it, but he was so dizzy, he wanted to go back to his mother's womb, damn it!

When Edmund came back, Lin Ke was already asleep with his head resting on a book.

Edmund woke him up, and the two went to dinner first.Finally, Edmund went back to his room and carefully put away a stack of documents. He put the documents together with some precious stones and diamonds.Their treasure was divided into two parts, and part of it was still in a safe on their small yacht.The small yacht was placed in a safe place by Edmund, and he also found someone to guard it. The other part was mainly gold coins, and Edmond customized a safe and put it in his room.

It is very risky to do this. In fact, Lin Ke wanted him to put it in his room at the beginning, so that he could feel the happiness of me being a local tyrant every day when he woke up. In my own room, if I fell asleep and a thief or a robber came in, what should I do? Does he want money or his life?He climbed out of bed for a while to see if the safe was still there, and climbed back into bed for a while, suspicious, and didn't sleep well that night.The next day, with dark circles under his eyes, he asked Edmond to move the box away.Alas... He really is not the life of a rich man!

Lin Ke watched Edmond's movements, and suddenly said: "Can you show me the document? This is what you brought at the mayor's house in Marseille today?"

Edmund paused, then handed him the document.

Lin Ke flipped through it carefully, it was written in French, and he is no stranger to French now.The document consisted of several pages, all of which were stamped with bright red stamps.

Lin Ke saw the top one at a glance.Beneath Edmond's name there is an accusation in parentheses: Dantès Napoleonist, responsible for assisting the return of rebels from Elba.Should be strictly guarded, careful alert.Below these lines, there is another person's handwriting: "read, no need to review." The bottom signature is Noirtier Villefort.Then Lin Ke looked through other documents and found the informant letter, the judgment, Morrel's petition, M. Villefort's note, and the judgment.

Lin Ke was in a very complicated mood. It was these things that made Edmund stay on death row for 14 years!The best 14 years of my life!

Lin Ke was shaking with anger, he really wanted to beat those people to death!

Edmund suddenly held Lin Ke's fist, and said, "Don't feel sorry for me, I will make these people pay the price!"

When he said this, it was like a demon crawling out of hell, demanding the lives of those who hurt him!Lin Ke shuddered!

The documents in his hand fell to the ground and scattered aside, Lin Ke hurried to pick them up.Edmund also bent down to join him, and Lin Ke saw a bill, a check for 20 and a bond transfer letter!

"This is?" Link asked.

"God's gift." Edmund laughed, then packed up the documents and put them back in the safe.

"Now we can set off." Only then did Lin Ke realize that Edmund had changed into a different outfit. He looked noble and handsome, except that his face was a little too pale, but it did not damage his temperament.

Lin Ke set off for the theater with him.

Edmund smiled. He noticed that Lin Ke's attitude was gradually softening, and getting along with him became more and more natural. Maybe he didn't realize it yet.In fact, Lin Ke is very dependent on Edmund.He not only regarded him as a reliable partner, maybe he didn't realize it himself, when he looked at Edmund, his eyes would shine brightly, no matter what kind of things he encountered, good or bad, the first The person who thinks of it is always love.Moreover, he would secretly observe Edmund intentionally or unintentionally, but he seemed to have buried these thoughts consciously.

In the theater, another incident happened. An escaped prisoner sneaked into the backstage and performed on the stage, and the audience didn't notice it. Finally, the military police appeared to arrest him, and the audience suddenly realized and talked a lot. .Lin Ke was also very surprised, and said to Edmund: "Do you think he is stupid? Now that they have escaped, why don't they hide their names and flee to a place farther away, and appear in front of everyone?"

"Because he loves life and wants to return to his original state, but the reality is helpless. Everything he has has been destroyed by God. He must do something to prove that he is still alive. To prove that he is alive, and Not a corpse. O God! Isn't that how I live? I must live hard, incognito, to punish the bastards you have forgotten! Endure all reproach for vengeance."

Lin Ke was stunned by Edmond's words, he said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Edmond, I didn't..."

"Lin Ke, you are my best...partner, I don't blame you, I just express my feelings."

Lin Ke's figure appeared in Edmund's eyes. He stretched out his hand to hold Lin Ke's hand. His palm was hot, but his fingers were cold. This contradictory contrast stirred up waves in Lin Ke's heart.

"I know, I know, Edmond." He didn't open Edmund's hand.

Edmund smiled. He quietly clenched Lin Ke's fingers and held him in his palm. His whole heart seemed to be filled with strength.

The next act begins.
