Overcome everything just to find you

Chapter 14

One morning when the wind and snow were not strong, Makukai and Kevin left Yelena's house.The two drove to Abakan, but they only stayed there for two days. Then they drove and had fun, admiring the scenery along the way, tasting the delicacies of various places, and enjoying the customs of different places.During this period, Canglang didn't contact them, and didn't go to Ivan's house again.Then he left Russia and took a plane to Germany.

The two made a short stop in Germany.The clear purpose allowed them to finish their work in Germany quickly.Just as the two were in the waiting room at Munich Airport, Marcus' cell phone rang.

There was a loud roar from the other end of the phone, "Why didn't you tell us about such a big matter? Are you not paying attention to us? You didn't tell us about such an important matter as getting a marriage certificate until after it was done." Ah, you didn't report the truth when your wings grew hard enough to fly? You don't care about us, Marcus..." Before finishing listening, Marcus hung up the phone for a long time.

Kevin smiled, "Casper?" Marcus nodded in response.

Paris France

It was just dawn, with a little white light.Marcus and Kevin had just gotten off the plane and were getting ready to collect their luggage at the Charles de Gaulle exit.Marcus has already found a hotel.In the Roissy Oceania Hotel in Paris, Marcus went through the formalities at the front desk, took the room card, and rested with Kevin.

The two had a good night's sleep and didn't wake up until nearly 6 o'clock in the afternoon.After waking up, the two took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and tidied up their clothes.After that, I left the hotel and went to a well-decorated and emotional restaurant on the street for dinner.After the meal, Marcus took Kevin by the hand and walked on the brightly lit streets.The weather is still chilly, but the romance and passion of the French cannot be restrained.The two had enough time and were not in a hurry, so they walked slowly, enjoying the unique style.

The next day

At noon, Marcus left the hotel alone without telling Kevin where he was going.

At 3 p.m., Kevin received a text; he left the hotel and, shortly after, came to an intersection.There is a cake shop on the side of the intersection, and Kevin bought a black forest cake in the shop.Go back to the intersection and observe the situation at the intersection.

A woman with dark green hair and sunglasses entered Kevin's field of vision.The woman walked towards Kevin's left hand, and Kevin followed her with a cake, keeping a distance of about 50 meters.

Kevin followed cautiously, and the woman seemed to keep Kevin within a distance of no more than 50 meters on purpose.The women wandered around in the street, walking aimlessly.Kevin was a little skeptical, wondering if he had made a mistake, and at the same time guessed what this woman was trying to do.

Suddenly, the woman stopped in the middle of the street and turned to take a look.Kevin calmly walked on.Then, the woman continued to walk forward, and Kevin gradually slowed down to follow.

The woman walked into a coffee shop, and Kevin followed in calmly.The woman went straight to the piano in the corner, sat down and played the piano.Kevin looked around but didn't see him.Chopin's Nocturne No. [-] in D flat major echoed in the small coffee shop. After a few minutes, Marcus came out from the inside, nodded to a waiter, walked to a table, and motioned for Kevin to come. go around him.

The waiter served them two lattes.

"Marcus has been waiting a long time ago." The woman playing the piano turned slightly to them and said, her slender but somewhat rough hands were still playing skillfully, "I just deliberately spared the way. There is no need to be so angry Right? Besides, I showed Morgan a view of Paris.

"I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Jenny Ayuyi, and I am the nominal owner of this store. Can I be considered a friend of Mr. Wolfe?" the woman asked.Marcus ignored it, and Jenny pretended to be angry and stopped playing the piano.

Marcus hands Kevin his phone, and Kevin takes it.A few seconds later, Kevin smiled comfortably and looked at Marcus, only to see Marcus nodded, and Kevin said softly that it would be good.

"Would you like to play the piano for a while?"

Kevin got up and walked to the piano, his fingers slid across the keys, and a smooth sound of the piano sounded.Afterwards, his slender and fair fingers danced recklessly on the black and white keys, and the pleasant and brisk melody poured out uninterruptedly, resounding throughout the coffee shop.

"That's him?" A small voice sounded behind Kevin, and there was some doubt in the pure French pronunciation.

"Where's Calton?"

"parking."

At this time, a fat middle-aged man in a dark brown coat and a hat entered the cafe.Walking into the coffee shop, the man took off his hat, revealing a bald head.He made a beeline for the service desk and ordered a hot latte before walking over to Marcus and sitting down.

"Long time no see, how are you?"

"It's okay, it's okay, but this hair is a bit annoying, and it will fall out a little every day when I comb it, and now it's a little bald, not handsome anymore."

"You? You weren't handsome in the first place." said the man who came in at the beginning.

"Too lazy to talk to you."

Marcus didn't want them to fight each other, so he interrupted the conversation between the two of them. "I came here to meet and chat with you, don't make the atmosphere so heavy, okay?" Marcus asked the two guests in pure French.

"Kevin Morgan, 29 years old, a teacher in the Chinese Department of the University of Chicago."

"Any opinion? Martial."

"No." Martial threw out a word coldly.

"What about you?"

Caldon heard Marcus ask him, looked up and then stared at a small hole on the table and said: "The people you like are not bad, no matter who they are. I have no objection, besides, I can What's your opinion?"

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and Kevin closed the lid and sat in front of the piano. "Marcus, is this necessary?"

"I just want you to meet them, there is no other purpose." Marcus explained the anger mixed with Kevin's calm voice.

"Who do you think you are?" Martial's temper was ignited.

Kevin stood up and turned around to face Marcus, Caldon and Martial, and said firmly: "Kevin Morgan, an independent person, a person with ideas, and a capable person."

"Kevin, I'm sorry. I just wanted to introduce you to someone I know and approve of, and didn't take your feelings into account, sorry. Don't be mad, okay?"

Marcus' gentle voice surprised Caldon.He has known Marcus for five or six years, and he has never heard Marcus speak in such a tone. In the past, Marcus's voice was not mixed with any emotion.Markus has changed, Caldon thought.

"You want everyone you know to know you. Is there anyone around Marcus?" Kevin was really angry, although what he said did not sound angry to outsiders, his tone was calm as if he had never experienced it before. Just about anything.But Marcus and the others, people who have been walking in the "battlefield" for many years can hear it at once.

Marcus didn't speak, he did think so, he felt that letting everyone know might do more good than harm.It is impossible for him to stay by Kevin's side all the time, so there must always be someone who can protect him secretly to prevent things like that from happening before.

Kevin sighed and wanted to speak, but the words stopped when he reached his mouth.He glanced at Martial and Caldon before leaving the cafe.

"It seems that you did something wrong." Jenny gloated and said in a mocking tone.

Leaving the cafe, Kevin walked alone on the street.He came to Paris once when he was a child. In his memory, he came to Paris that time just for fun, it seemed.Those memories and the name Liang Jinyan were sealed away by him when he left Singapore, until what happened this year made these memories escape from the "Pandora's Box".When he knew he was coming to Paris, he was unhappy but didn't tell Marcus.Moreover, Kevin also tried to change his impression of Paris.Now it seems that Kevin is a little disappointed.

Kevin didn't return to the hotel until around 10 pm.However, the lights in the hotel room were not turned on, and the outside lights actually illuminated the room.Kevin's sense of loss was ignited.

Suddenly, someone hugged Kevin's waist from behind; Kevin's heart tightened.

"I thought you weren't planning to come back."

Hearing the familiar voice, Kevin let down his vigilance. "Not coming back? Where do I live? Sleeping on the street?"

"Still angry? Sorry, I didn't consider your feelings."

"I'm angry not only because you let me meet people suddenly, but also for other reasons."

"Other reasons? The old ones?"

"Well. I don't want to talk about anything from the past. Also," Kevin broke free from Marcus's arms, looked at Marcus coldly and said, "I don't hate seeing people you know, but I don't I like to meet suddenly. Just like this afternoon, when someone speaks in that tone, it makes me uncomfortable. It’s the first time we meet. Also, one is called Martial and the other is called Caldon, right? Martial Erdubois, 43, owner of a business; but the business was not doing well, but he kept running it, which made it a little curious. Carl East Bernard, 46, a grocery store The boss, and his wife have two sons and a daughter, and their home is in the 15th district. To add, Martial is still single and likes to go to bars in the 10th district. At the same time, the more important thing is that these two people used to be soldiers. Although he has been discharged from the army, it seems that he is still appearing in some places where he should not have appeared."

"Have you investigated so much in one afternoon?" Marcus was a little surprised, but he didn't show it, and there was no surprise in his tone.

"It doesn't take an afternoon to investigate." With the help of the light outside, Kevin clearly saw the smile on Marcus's face for only two seconds.That kind of smile makes people very uncomfortable; that kind of smile is provocative.

"You want to say that you can protect yourself without my help, right?"

"That's right." Kevin replied firmly and without hesitation.

"Okay. You can protect yourself from now on." After finishing speaking, Marcus walked to the door and said, "Come with me to have something to eat, I didn't have dinner."

Kevin followed Marcus silently, accompanied Marcus, but did not say a word along the way.

late night hotel

Marcus woke up, got up slightly, gently closed the bedroom door, turned on the light in the living room, took a can of beer from the refrigerator, sat on the sofa, and drank the cold beer in silence.As the cold beer slid down his throat, Marcus frowned, then sighed.

The author has something to say: For the first time writing, if there is something wrong, please forgive me?

Transit

The atmosphere is a little stiff.Kevin didn't speak, and Marcus didn't speak, and the whole morning passed like this.

"Aren't you going to talk to me? You haven't talked to me since last night."

"I don't want to talk, and I don't know what to say."

"You, forget it. I'm going out to do some errands, and I'll be back soon." After finishing speaking, Marcus left the hotel.

A few minutes after Marcus left, Kevin also left the hotel.

"What brings you here?"

"A Frenchman should not always speak Chinese in France."

"Let's talk, what are you doing here?" The standard Chinese was instantly transformed into fluent French.

"A bottle of whiskey." Marcus also spoke in French.

"Why, what happened?"

"Don't ask so many questions." After finishing speaking, Marcus took a big sip of his wine.The other person put something to eat next to the wine bottle and then went on to do other things.

Half an hour later, someone suddenly sat next to Marcus, facing the bar.

"In just a few minutes, this bottle of wine will be almost finished by you."

Marcus suddenly looked up, looked at the person sitting next to him, and asked in surprise: "Why, why are you here?"

"If you want to know where you are, you just need to call up the surveillance cameras on the streets around Paris." Hearing this answer, Marcus smiled wryly and took another sip of whiskey. "You drank wine last night, and you still drink today? Are you not healthy?"

Marcus was silent.

"Has the current situation made you decadent?"

"Oh." Marcus smiled wryly, and looked sideways at the person sitting beside him, "Decadent? How can you be considered decadent? What is it like now?"

"Have a beer."

Marcus stared at the glass in front of him.A few minutes later, Marcus dragged his slightly tired body out of the bar alone.The people beside him did not follow him, but were still sitting in front of the bar.

"Aren't you following him?" the bartender asked Kevin while cleaning up.

"The purpose of coming here is not to find him, but to find you." Kevin said seriously.The bartender looked at Kevin suspiciously, "I want to know something from you, about Marcus. You should have known him for a while, right?"

"How much will you be paid?"

"A close-up photo of Marcus." Kevin said with a ghostly smile.

The bartender stopped what he was doing, looked at Kevin and said, "Tell me, what do you want to know?"

After more than an hour, Kevin left the bar.He got useful information, but gave what he would not give to others.After leaving the bar, Kevin used some methods to call out the surveillance and walked to another place.All afternoon, Kevin was chatting with others.
