Her voice trembled inexplicably and asked, "Where's Klein?"

Leonard closed his eyes, took a breath and said, "I'm sorry, your brother Klein died at the hands of a ferocious criminal in order to save some people. He is a hero, a true hero."

Melissa's eyes widened slightly, her body shook a few times invisibly, and the three tickets in her hand fell to the ground weakly.

They face up and bear the title of the play The Return of the Earl.

In the living room of Moretti's house, Leonard hardly dared to look at Melissa and Benson who were opposite.

But his mind always involuntarily flashed the appearance of the other party:

The youthful girl opened her eyes without saying a word, her pupils were out of focus, quietly like a doll.

The man who somewhat resembled Klein tried his best to maintain a normal posture, but he was always in a daze from time to time, and his speech would slow down a bit.

"That's how it happened. I'm sorry for this. I couldn't stop it in time. The Blackthorn Security Company, the police department, and those who were helped all promised to give you a pension, which is about 6,000 pounds..." Leonard looked at Said slightly hesitantly.

Suddenly, Benson interrupted his words and asked hoarsely, "Where's his body? I mean Klein's body?"

He pursed his lips, paused and said, "When will we see him?"

"In the company, you can do it now." Leonard replied with unconcealed sadness.

"Okay." Benson twitched his stiff mouth and said, "I'll go to the bathroom first."

Without waiting for Leonard to respond, he quickly entered the bathroom on the first floor, and closed the wooden door with a bang.

Walking to the sink, Benson turned on the faucet, letting the tap water drip down.

He bent down, lowered his head, held the water in both hands, and kept patting his face.

Patting and clapping, his movements suddenly stopped, and there was no change for a long time. Only the sound of running water echoed in the whole bathroom.

After dozens of seconds, Benson raised his head and looked into the mirror, only to see that his face opposite was covered with water droplets, and his eyes were so red that he could no longer hide them.

A few days later, a corner of Raphael's cemetery.

After Dunn's funeral was over, everyone gathered in front of a new tombstone, with a black and white photo of Klein on it, a very bookish photo.

Melissa stood in front of the grave, her eyes were slack and out of focus, while Elizabeth beside her kept wiping away her tears.

Leonard, Benson, Frye, and Brett carried the coffin, walked over, and put it into the grave.

After the pastor's eulogy and their respective prayers, the earth began to fill in the rustling, and the black coffin was gradually covered.

At this time, Melissa squatted down and threw the copper whistle that her brother had found into it.

Leonard looked sideways at this scene, feeling very sad in his heart, and admired the girl's strength. After learning the bad news, she kept neither crying nor fussing, and her silence was so painful that it made people feel distressed.

The grave was filled up and the stone slab was covered. Leonard finally looked at Klein's tombstone. His epitaph had three lines: "Best brother;"

"Best brother;"

"Best colleague." JrNovels.com
