"Mr. Ronan, this is your letter."
Rand City, Lower City, when Ronan came downstairs to his rented apartment again, Old Jack, the administrator in charge of the door, respectfully handed over a letter covered with fire paint.
This gray-haired old man watched Ronan transform from an ordinary Reserve Officer into a police officer respected by everyone.
In just two months!
"Thank you."
Ronan took the letter with some curiosity.
He came to the apartment today to handle the matter of renting out. On the one hand, the lease period here is about to expire, and on the other hand, Sea Cliff Villa has been able to move in.
I didn't expect someone to send me a letter.
Ronan opened the envelope, took out the letter paper and read it again, then realized that this letter was from home.
Or more accurately, his former home.
Raymond Manor located in the countryside!
Ronan was informed at home that his sister Jenny. Raymond would be engaged in three days, and they hoped that he could come to the engagement ceremony.
In addition, there are very important things that need Ronan to go home to discuss!
Although the last signature of this letter is Ronan's cheap dad, Baron Malcolm. Raymond.
But when he saw it, he knew it was the butler's handiwork.
And although the letter contains words such as "hope", "please" and "discuss", the condescension and bossiness between the lines is lingering.
This made Ronan's past memories flash into his mind.
Interestingly, there were actually 5 silver coins included in this letter.
According to memory, Ronan tasted compassion.
After thinking about it, he calmly put away this "letter from home".
If it had been another descendant, most likely he would not have ignored this letter. After all, the original person had already been separated from the Raymond Family and was an abandoned object.
Now that the relationship has been severed, why bother getting together again?
But Ronan thinks differently.
He could feel the extremely complex emotions the original person had towards Lineage and towards his biological father Malcolm. Raymond.
It was a mixture of awe, admiration, resentment and humiliation.
Such emotions were deeply engraved in the soul of the original body, so much so that Ronan cannot completely eliminate them now.
Therefore, he decided to go back and completely end this cause and effect!
After completing the procedures for canceling the lease, Ronan came to Third Precinct and asked for leave from Deputy Chief Sean.
Sean readily gave Ronan a week's holiday.
As the Night Watchman troops launched Operation Raid and Sweep into the Rand City sewers some time ago, they cleared out a large number of members of the underworld, including many Blackbeard Pirates spies who had infiltrated.
The entire Rand City and Underground Forces were hit very hard.
Therefore, the public security environment in Lower City has become very good during this period. Although it has not reached the point where Doors Unlocked at Night no longer picks up lost items on the road, the vicious crime rate has dropped significantly, and several police detectives in the police station are rarely dispatched.
It really doesn't matter if one Ronan is missing.
In addition, Sean also intends to befriend Ronan, a promising young police detective, and asks if a week's vacation is enough.
If it's not enough, you can give it a few more days.
Of course Ronan said that was enough and expressed his gratitude to Deputy Chief.
The next morning, he got on the train to the Raymond Manor.
Raymond Manor is located in the outer suburbs of Rand City, about fifty kilometers away from the main city. Coupled with the restrictions of the road environment, riding a bicycle back is obviously not a smart choice.
There is a railway between Rand City and Sinzochi City, and the station on the way from Frey Town to the Raymond Manor is only a few miles away.
Ronan originally took the train in Frey Town and came to Rand City alone to study and make a living.
Although the journey was not long, Ronan did not feel wronged. He spent 3 silver dollars to buy a first-class ticket.
The trains in this world are still in the development stage of the steam age. The railway lines of Kingdom of Invya mainly connect several big cities. There are many stations on the way, so the start and stop speed is not very fast.
The 50-kilometer road from Rand City to Frey Town takes more than two hours to reach.
But it's faster and more convenient than riding a horse.
As for cars, in this era they were still a luxury item for aristocratic gentlemen.
The first-class carriage was at the very back of the train. When Ronan got on the train, there were only a few passengers sitting inside.
The decoration and seats in the carriage are luxurious and well worth the ticket price. It is also equipped with a bar and beautiful female flight attendants, providing free drinks and meals.
Ronan After sitting down, he asked the flight attendant for a glass of champagne.
It cost him another 2 silver dollars.
As the driving time approaches, more and more passengers appear in the first-class carriage.
These passengers, both men and women, were all well-dressed, and they were basically nobles, businessmen, and upper-class professionals such as lawyers and doctors.
A girl wearing a floral hood and a plain white dress sat down in the seat opposite Ronan.
She brought a large leather suitcase with her and wanted to ask the flight attendant to help put it on the luggage rack above the seat. As a result, several flight attendants were busy dealing with other passengers and did not hear the lady's call.
As a young police officer, Ronan showed his gentlemanly demeanor at the right time. "Let me help you."
As he spoke, he lifted the suitcase and stuffed it into the luggage rack.
The girl in the white dress raised her head and showed a shy and grateful smile, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Ronan sat down again and asked casually, "Are you going to Xin George?"
Sinzochi City is a big city in the interior of Kingdom of Invya, four to five hundred kilometers away from Rand City.
The girl in the white skirt shook her head. "I am under Frey Town."
"That's a coincidence."
Ronan smiled and said, "I'm going to Frey Town too."
The girl in the white skirt raised her hood, then stretched out her little hand to him. "My name is Audrey. Norton. Nice to meet you."
Ronan shook hands with her. "Ronan, Ronan. Raymond."
Only then did Ronan notice that this young lady had a pure and beautiful face, her skin was whiter than snow, her nose and starry eyes, and her appearance was much higher than Third Precinct's policewoman Selina.
It's a bit surprising that such a beautiful girl is riding the train alone.
However, Ronan can feel the power hidden under the beautiful appearance of Miss Norton - Extraordinary Strength!
The other party is an extraordinary person.
The journey of more than two hours was neither too long nor too short. Ronan and Audrey. Norton had a great conversation during the journey. When they arrived at Frey Town, they even exchanged contact addresses.
Ronan keenly noticed that when this young lady saw her handwritten address, her eyes changed obviously!
