Trafford’s Trading Club

“… a memorial service will be held tonight at 7: 30 at the Municipal Theatre. ”

The cab's radio made some noise, but the people in the cab didn't seem to pay much attention - Big Cousin and Second Cousin pinched Caroline in the middle, while Caroline's lawyer sat in the co-driver's seat.

What Lawyer Carlo was going to do was actually take the bus.

But Big Cousin said taxi, big deal, they paid, so lawyer Carlo happily agreed.

“Caroline, are you and your second cousin having a good relationship?” There was some silence in the car, and Caroline's attorney tried to find something to talk about - he watched Caroline and Cousin Two holding hands all the time, although it seemed odd to cover it with clothes.

But who doesn't have a weird hobby?

Cousin Er just glanced at Counselor Carlo coldly, which made Mr. Lawyer shrug his shoulders, so bored that he put on his headset and played with his phone.

Caroline looked down and whispered in her ‘second cousin' ear: "Can you untie my handcuffs? They can easily be broken in the hospital, causing trouble. ”

Cousin Two just smiled at Caroline like a relative and looked out the window without any intention.

Caroline leaned directly against the chair and became more and more disturbed - in fact, she had been trying to find a way out ever since she came out of Boston's humble factory.

Including when she said at the factory that she was paying for her life, everything was just to delay time and find a chance to escape.

It's just that she didn't expect ‘Big Cousin and Second Cousin' to look so tight that she didn't loosen up at all and wouldn't even let her touch anything.

She was just the bottom of a society engaged in sex work, not a special elite. Almost everything she could think of had been thought of, and now it seemed that she could only do as she was told.

By the way, Cousin Two is carrying a gun.

“Oh, the hospital is here!” Lawyer Carlo suddenly turned back and smiled with joy and revealed a good acting look.

Caroline was surprised when she suddenly found herself handcuffed missing when she got out of the car and ‘Cousin II' was wearing nothing like it, but she put her hand on her shoulder and pushed her almost all the way. ‘Big Cousin' followed Caroline closely and left no chance.

……

When Caroline saw Nia again, she seemed weak and even worse. The ward is bright, but there is a low and visible level of sight.

The whole ward seemed to be darkened by Nia's grey breath.

Caroline's in a bit of a complicated mood.

Nia was very tired, apparently because of the side effects of an anti-cancer drug she was taking.

Lawyer Carlo held Nia's dry hand and whispered her intentions in her ear.

Perhaps at the end of her life, it was a blessing for Nia to have such a gentle voice in her ear, as Caroline thought.

Caroline knew that it might be difficult to know what happened to Nia, but there was no doubt that it would be a night without dawn when Nia's final fortune to fight the disease had been stolen by herself and Caroline's lawyer.

Sorry, Nia...

Caroline personally signed this power of attorney, as well as several other documents, while Nia was awake and witnessed by Caroline, who was in possession of a legal lawyer's license.

“Can I have a word with Caroline?” Nia spoke slowly, her voice weary.

Lawyer Carlo nodded and politely gave way to his seat.

Caroline looked at ‘Cousin II' subconsciously, and the other person nodded, making a complete set of reasoning, which they knew better than Caroline.

“Come here...” Nia tried to raise her hand, but could only lift half of it and gave up her sex.

Caroline quickly replaced Caroline's lawyer and sat next to Nia, almost lying on Nia's pillow.

“Nia, you said I could hear you.” Caroline almost put her ears on Nia's lips.

“I... I actually made a will...” Nia grabbed Caroline's hand gently, "Here you go...”

Caroline opened her eyes suddenly, “Nia...”

“Whether… the last surgery succeeds or fails, Counselor Carlo… he will give you something…”

“Nia, I...”

“Actually not much...” Nia shook her head: "After deducting the cost of treatment... not much...”

“Why?” Caroline silenced halfway, “because... because I'm the only one visiting you? ”

“One of the reasons.” Nia was weak: “Thank you for being here with me when I was most alone… Though... although you come less and less often... in the past six months, what I've been looking forward to most is your arrival..."

“Nia...”

“In our line of work… most of them have no choice but to go this way… we can only go on and then try… to find another way out. ”

Caroline looked at Nia, and Nia's eyes fell on her as well, but Caroline felt Nia's eyes somewhere else.

She said, "I think, I thought… I thought I had found…”

Memories are very painful things, they are like a flood of impending dykes, a point suddenly weak, breaking out with thousands of troops.

Nia... was one of her 'predecessors' who took great care of her.

She's old, she's old, she's old. She dressed brightly every day, sitting on the street, sometimes smoking a cigarette, sitting still, knowing that the ash burned out, she would move a little.

You know how to make a man happy and make him shoot faster? There's a little trick...

You can let a man kiss you anywhere, but only on your lips.

I've lived a long life on my own, so I learn to cook more or less, and eat outside every day is a waste of money, isn't it? Actually, I think my craftsmanship is pretty good.

Learn to protect yourself, take this thing, hit the ones who don't pay to spray his eyes, and kick his dick.

I came out when I was fifteen.

- Someone you've loved? Have you ever loved anyone?

- Actually, opening a cafe by the sea would be nice, maybe even better if a guy who can play guitar sings me love songs every day.

- Caroline, I think I'm sick...

Caroline, will I die?

“Nia!” Caroline suddenly grabbed Nia's palm, "you'll be fine, the surgery will succeed... it will succeed! ”

Nia smiled, perhaps she felt comforted, “It's not much money in the will... but... when you get it, maybe you can try to read... you're much younger than me... there should be a way out...”

“It's going to be fine... it's going to be fine!” Caroline grieved.

“Finally..." Nia closed her eyes slowly, seemingly accumulating, reaching the limit, "man's words… don't believe when you can't believe them. They are... animals who are good at fraud...”

“Nia... Nia?” Caroline suddenly freaked out when she suddenly closed her eyes, "said Doctor! Call a doctor! Doctor...”

She tried to shake Nia's shoulder, but let Counselor Carlo stop her, reminding her: "She's just asleep, the medication she's taking makes her drowsy, don't wake her up, she's still weak. ”

Caroline nodded a little.

Outside the ward door, 'Big Cousin' suddenly spoke to Carol's lawyer, while 'Second Cousin' quickly handcuffed Caroline's hand again and covered it with clothes.

Counselor Carlo seemed surprised to see the two of them ‘holding hands' and still very enthusiastic: “Well, gentlemen, it was a pleasure to work with you. Believe that in a few days, we will be able to get a very good outbound. ”

“Lawyer Carlo?” ‘Big cousin' suddenly laughed: 'Do you have a card? Perhaps we'll have a chance to deal with each other later. ”

“Oh, what an honor.” Lawyer Carlo smiled and handed over his card.

It happens all the time, gangsters, and treating professional ethics like a shitty lawyer is like fucking fireworks. Caroline had no interest in the sudden likeness between the two.

A nurse next to him was pushing a car over with a wide variety of medicines and medical tools. She just quickly grabbed something from it and stuffed it in a bag of her own clothes while ‘Big Cousin and Second Cousin' were not paying attention.

Lawyers Caroline and Caroline said goodbye in front of the hospital.

After that, 'Big Cousin' asked ‘Second Cousin’ what he was going to do next, ‘Second Cousin’ said: 'Bring this woman back, wait a few days for the lawyer to take the money... you follow this lawyer and see where he lives. ”

They do things with caution.

‘Cousin' nodded and followed Counselor Carlo quietly.

‘Second cousin' suddenly pulled Caroline's arm, cold-blooded: 'Come on, stay with us for the rest of the day, we'll take good care of you, Miss Caroline. ”

“Wait... I want to go to the bathroom.” Caroline stopped suddenly and covered her stomach, "really! ”

‘Second cousin' frowned and then dragged Caroline back to the hospital silently.

He took Caroline to the ladies' room on the first floor, looked at the neighborhood, and quickly pulled Caroline in —— in the toilet, "Cousin Two" chose Caroline's toilet for the disabled.

Cousin Er opened the handcuffs on the side of his hand and locked them on the railing of the armrest next to the toilet before saying softly: "I'll give you 10 minutes. ”

Cousin Er quickly closed the door and looked at the door and window in the ladies' bathroom before walking out of the door and leaning against the wall outside the bathroom.

……

……

“Three days ago, we experienced a despair in our lives here. Some of us have unfortunately died in this disaster...”

In front of the theatre, people were dressed in black, holding white candles in their hands, quietly lined up in a row.

There are many white roses surrounded by candlelight that dye them yellow white.

In addition to the chauffeur's message, a crying voice can be heard in the invisibility, presumably a family member or friend who lost a loved one in a disaster.

In the distance, a black private car was parked. The back seat of the car went out, and the windows just shook down, and a pair of indifferent eyes swept across the crowd in front of the theatre door.

“Why don't these people have a memorial service in the theater?” All of a sudden, the voice of questioning came in.

That's the same in the back seat of the car… Kosty. Naturally, she was accompanied by Doflamingo, who turned into Dr. San Francisco.

The reason for this is that St. Francis had long been operating covertly during this memorial service, which had led to the denial of the memorial service's request for a venue, allowing only the area in front of the theatre to be opened.

In fact, the theatre has been in a closed phase since the hijacking ended that day, when the Ministry of Security and the police searched the scene - after all, there have been shootouts and many things have been damaged.

“Didn't I tell you?” St. Francis.

“Nuclear bomb?” Costney frowned - she docked with Vita of the ‘LK Brotherhood' in São Paulo in the morning and rushed right back here at noon with her horses on her feet.

For what St. Francis told her, the reason why he chose to sponsor the redecoration of the theatre, Krissny just assumed it was an irrelevant joke.

“Of course it's a joke.” St. Francis laughed strangely at this moment, "actually, just hiding something that was just as important to me before Roger died. Nothing was found on his body, and it should not have been found by the police. So I suspect that things are still hidden in this theater. ”

“What is it?” Corsini frowned and asked.

St. Francis calmly said, "If you can find it, you'll know… well, let's keep an eye on it, don't let anyone suspicious in, I doubt Roger's people are dead. Roger is crazy, but not stupid. He should still have the rest of his men, not directly involved in the hijacking, but outside to support him...”

“Then I'll stay here.” Kirsney nodded.

“No, you can still accompany me to the waiting reception.” St. Francis shook his head: "Just tell the people below to do the job. Besides, hurry up and find Bucky as soon as possible. There's something I need to ask him. ”

“Got it, father. ”

“Drive.” Saint-Française chauffeurs silently commanded.

The sedan slowly drove out, almost at the same time, from the side of the car parked, and the two figures slowly walked in, measuring the memorial service in front of the theatre.

One of them lowered his voice at the moment: "Miss Yunight, did you bring me here to attend this memorial service? ”

Sure enough... Bucky and the club's maid, Young-night.

The maid's eyes suddenly swept away from the black private car she had just driven away, then looked at Bucky and said softly: "It's not a show, it's a show. ”

“Performance?” Bucky blinked.

The maid said, “These people are in a very interesting state, just what you need. Listen, you're going to develop your faith, there's some trouble. If it's a normal situation, it takes a long time, and that's slower. But you have a good opportunity because of the hijacking. ”

“I still don't get it...” Bucky shook his head.

The maid said softly: "They heard some news. At the same time, they are wondering one thing...”

“What is it? ”

"My husband had a group deal with these people. The owner is not hiding anything...”

“This…” Bucky seemed to have something in mind.

“Go, do your miracle power. In one night, let me see how many believers you can reap.” Night smile: “Let me see how high your potential is. ”

“But I...” What else does Bucky want to say?

But in the blink of an eye, the maid had vanished into thin air, and Bucky knew that the woman was afraid of hiding and watching herself in the dark.

Don't have any plans in advance, what exactly needs to be done, and don't make it clear, just let yourself be on the field? Bucky grinned and bit his teeth, walking hard on his scalp toward the crowd.

……

On the rooftop opposite the theatre building, the maid holds a street food Pastel in her hand.

I bought this from the brother-in-law at the street stall.

Only Boss Lo bought it last time, bought two copies. The maid bought it tonight, only one.

She ate quietly and the night breeze lifted her hair.

“This is the smell of loneliness...”
