In the evening, the carriage stopped at the outside of the village.
Old man walked down from the carriage, insisted on a cane, boots trample in the mud in the village, stepping stool chickens and ducks, went inside the village.
In front, there are a few kicks in the mud of a child saw him, they feared them to hide away a little.
The old man wore a thick overcoat, hat on his head, hands and boots are also very valuable crutch.
Dirty, they can not pay.
"Go home, the dinner."
On the door in front of the bench, young children accompany children to play slapstick smile, will make just a few wooden toys gave them, cajole these children leave.
He does not look like a farmer in this village, in fact, even the nobility few people like him so handsome.
And good-natured, good manual labor, or a doctor, will use some herbal cure fever.
Here only two weeks, everyone liked him.
The only pity is blind in one eye.
Many village girls are secretly watching him, and then he quietly argue in private eyes intact, then there will be more good-looking pair of eye.
"Long time no see, Mr. Constantine."
He looked up, looked at the old man smile. Unfortunately, with a very good-looking goggles, smile becomes so unfortunate.
"Ah, Charles, long time no see."
Gaius crutches, slowly walked over to him, and then sat on a mud on that stool, fatigue seems like a long sigh of relief.
"I'll see you."
"I have recovered okay."
Charles smiled, wiped his hands on an apron with the pants, "I go and you go looking for something to drink."
"No, I just come around."
Gaius said: "Wait a minute left."
In order to avoid riots like that before, Charles these days are secretly convalescence rest in a small village in the vicinity of the capital.
In addition to a limited number of guards, and protectors of darkness, and no one knows this gentle and handsome young man is the son of God.
Many people use some wheat in exchange for his work to help their children at home, Charles is also bored.
Long time no see, Charles does not feel zoning, if TB is still: "This is fine, Mr. Constantine, you are free to live should also be a live.
I was about to slaughter the chickens, when I first came was so little sleep at night, get into the house, chattering called ...... "
Gaius nodded, "and slaughter them when I come back, I do not want to take a chef?"
"The best is with a bar, I cook very tasty, all rub someone else's." Charles laughed a little embarrassed.
"Nice to see you live like, as quickly as possible, without you, I have a lot of things are busy." Gaius hat and walking stick in her arms, looked up and rubbed his hair, the hair becomes somewhat mottled mess of.
Conceal tired.
"I envy you, ah, Charles."
He sighed softly "In the past, a lot of things nothing for me. After meeting you, only to find they have old, not that age of unlimited energy."
"Occasionally, give yourself a break, sir." Charles smiled, "In the summer, this side of the river but also fishing,I can accompany you. "
He turned for a long time, at home, only to find a bag of dried fish can be used to entertain people.
I feel very embarrassed.
Gaius took the dried fish repeatedly looked reluctantly into his mouth to chew the two, bite does not move, the wholeness swallowed.
Then choke.
"I'll get water ......"
Until five minutes later, Gaius was breathed, smile.
"too salty."
"A gift, put a little more salt."
Charles explained awkwardly.
In fact, who sent him is well-intentioned, today's expensive salt, dried fish but not worth much.
Unfortunately, I did not expect to choke people.
Gaius listening, but some happy: "make new friends, ah, Charles, I said, everyone will love you."
"Ah." Charles nodded and did not speak.
"How?" Gaius asked.
Charles was silent for a moment, whispered: "Mr. Hoffman, who is sent me dried fish, died the other day ......"
Gaius nodded his head, did not speak.
"He sold the land, to the city of factory workers, before leaving the home of dried fish to me. But not two days, he was sent back, the workshop where the machine tie broken hand, infection , here they can not buy medicine, I can not help him fever and he died. "
Charles said here, laughed bitterly: "If it was like before, before I have power, can save him."
"Charles, this is not your fault."
"I know, I'm just sad."
Charles looked at his head, finger calluses and scars: "the village a lot of people like Hoffman, like many children, just that the child is his son, he is also going to town to work in two days he signed a three-year contract.
Obviously earn much money in the workshop, hard labor, as slaves work half a year they can only make it a little bit. Work will not starve to death.
Plainly in the harvest, but the food is not cheap price, then simply sell. Want to buy it, but can not afford expensive, even buy ...... Mr. Constantine, is this why? "
Gaius did not speak.
Charles did not wait for the answer.
"We have not won yet, sir." He asked, "War is gone, a lot of people worked very hard in life, but still difficult to survive. Holy city was struck down, but a lot of nasty things still continues .
People can not live, or live. "
Charles asked him, "They have sacrificed so much, then why go to the expense of this world?"
Gaius did not answer.
Just looked away, not far from the gaze of smoke village, watching the sunset slowly falling.
"A lot of things, Charles, I can not understand that. I know some bad things, but for the future, we have to do ...... sacrifice a generation, a generation of blood enchant people follow EMI's prosperity."
He said, "Charles, it is necessary pains."
"But you could not require such ah. Now, if people can not live, EMI's thriving what is the point?"
Charles shook his head, dazed and angry, there is no way to accept this answer: "Mr. Constantine, before you tell me that you want to create a new world, so many homeless people have a place to go,Make a lot of people have been very happy.
We have not succeeded yet? We obviously have done ...... or why it can be so cruel? "
Gaius has finally come back to the.
His expression was calm.
With a trace of aging, there are many more, are familiar with Charles to pull off and mercy.
"Charles, do you remember what I said it to you in the holy city?" He said, "the pain will pass, all the pain will pass.
The world is not perfect, Charles, there is always regret, this is not and manpower. "
He finally uttered harsh words:
"Sorry, I am powerless."
Suddenly, Charles trance.
Like after a lengthy penance, it is difficult to match the focus of the road, unable to contain the hearts of weary and sad, as well as ...... resigned.
"It should not be like this, ah, Mr. Constantine, should not be like this."
He blew raised his remaining eye, gazing Gaius, also it seems to persist among the one-eyed former glow, like a flame: "I want, not such a world!"
Gaius stunned.
"You can do nothing, then, let me come, sir, I can!"
He moved forward, standing in front of Gaius: "I have one eye, I have so much blood, I can give you a miracle, sir, no matter how much you can!
Gaius did not speak.
Just looked at him.
Long, long time, until Charles difficult to sustain their excitement again, feebly bowed his head, sat back in the chair.
Sunset came, the silence of the twilight arrived, the distant mountains came the cry of the beast.
"Too late, Charles, rest, and I have to go."
Gaius insisted cane, got up from the bench, and finally with a good hat, to bid him farewell:. "Sorry, no scruples your condition, said a word out of season"
"Ok."
Charles reluctantly smiled, got up and wanted to send him, but did not think the old man step forward and hugged him.
Aging obviously have to walk on crutches, but embrace forced Charles to have a sense of suffocation.
Like the same as his son goodbye.
So hard.
"Uh, sir ......"
Charles stared, at a loss.
"I'm sorry, Charles." Gaius hoarse voice:. "I'm sorry"
Charles did not know where to put your hands, up, embarrassed: "No, it does not matter, it does not matter, just fight it ...... when you're late, sir you quickly go back and rest, maybe midnight will meet . "
He beat back to Gaius: "Well, so I went back to help keep a good hurt you, when you would not be so tired."
"bye."
Gaius took a step back, one last look Charles.
And he walked away.
"Goodbye."
After Gaius returned to the carriage, the carriage will quietly pulled into the darkness.
Carriage, silent wait for a man, handing me a folder.
He looked older.
Stiff and old.
Unlike a secretary, not like clever deft qualified for the job, and even the so-called political Taizhiruoyu did not detached.
Just slow it.
"Falls on the car stuff." The man said."Medical report, I think it should be you."
Gaius took the folder, shaking a bit, barely smiled:
"Did you watch?"
"No."
The old man shook his head.
Gaius stroking the cover of the folder, for a long time, it will be thrown on the next vacancy.
Long silence.
"My body was long a tumor, right here." He raised his finger, pointed to his right brain: "nerve and grow together."
He said, "began six years ago, I always thought I could control, I thought I could stay longer period of time, even if some time is good."
He remained silent.
The old man froze like a child of God, there is no reaction, nothing comforting words out.
"I have no time, Abel."
Gaius wearily bowed his head, closed his eyes: "I'm going to die."
Dark, long in silence.
Someone whispered, choking back tears.
"Abe, you ...... kill him."
He stopped in front of the palace on the snow.
Gaius opened the door, but did not stand, staggered, the guards wanted to help him, but that he waved violently pushed.
White snow on his shoulders.
He stooped bent down, propped his knees, as if exhausted.
Afford the final weight of the support.
"Sorry."
He gathered his coat, but still cold, said to himself: "I'm sorry, Charles, I'm sorry ......"
In this way, driven to distraction, he disappeared in the darkness.
In addition to walls, Paganini stood silently in the shadows.
Snow on his face, covered the eye pupil that a pair of dark.
He turned away.
quietly.
