Nolan stopped in his tracks, pressed Alex's lips with his slender fingers, and sealed his next storm of cursing.

"Pay attention to civilization, Alex."

Alex's throat rolled, and the chill climbed up his spine from the soles of his feet.Nolan's eyes looked as if he would take him to pour soapy water at any time, just like the way parents educated children who swear in the era before the law on the protection of minors.

The guy was really angry.he thought.This is how he vents his anger.He just didn't dare to make it too obvious, so as not to be accused of bullying an unrelated brother, just like a stepmother's daughter bullying Cinderella. If it gets out, it will be a big scandal for the Norfolk family.

Alex couldn't help being proud - he finally saw Nolan's jealous side, this guy is not a perfect saint, he still has the emotions of a mortal; but he couldn't help being afraid - Nolan never put him down No matter how hard he struggled in the past, Nolan tolerated (or ignored) him infinitely.If he is so arrogantly close to Roman, will he touch Nolan's only back scale?

Maybe he just didn't touch Nolan's bottom line before, so the stepbrother didn't bother to care about him.What about this time?He can't guarantee it.

Half of his foot has already stepped into Nolan Norfolk's spiritual minefield, and if he goes one step further, he may be blown up to ashes.The most sensible thing to do at this moment is to turn around and retreat obediently, pretending that nothing happened, but Alex always loved to die.He finally explored this unknown area in Nolan's spiritual world, how could he just taste it like this?

"If you're jealous, just say it." He said, "If you don't want me to play with Roman, I might give due consideration to your feelings."

"Which friends you associate with is your private matter, and I will not interfere."

"Oh, stop duplicity, your eyes are green with envy!"

Nolan seemed to want to say something to refute him, but in the end, the thousands of words turned into a helpless sigh that hesitated to speak. "Forget it, as long as you are happy."

Alex frowned happily.He successfully stepped into Nolan's minefield and survived!It seems that Nolan chose the latter between "becoming a jealous woman on the spot" and "continuing to pretend to maintain his image".What a dishonest man!

Alex's goal today is to anger Nolan and expose his weakness.Although Nolan didn't show much anger, Alex still felt complacent.At least the second goal is almost achieved.Therefore, his attitude towards his stepbrother was unavoidably a little bit more kind—there's no need to shy away from this guy, after all, he's just a mortal!

"Let's go, I'll take you to take the civilian subway."

Nolan is still a novice when it comes to experiencing common people's lives, and this time Alex is finally ahead of his stepbrother. ...Wait, this kind of thing is nothing to be proud of!

Nolan didn't talk too much this time, and followed his brother honestly.He put on a thoughtful expression all the way.When he walked into the subway station, he looked at his younger brother's back and tapped his lips with his index finger.

***

"It's really interesting. It reminds me of when I went to Africa to support poor children." In the subway station, Nolan looked curiously at the crowd in front of the ticket vending machine.I really don't know how this guy puts the general public and impoverished children in Africa on the same standard.Perhaps in his eyes, all those whose living standard is not as good as his are similar to African children.

When they were about to line up, there was a large wave of people who had just got off at the exit.One of them, in full knight's armor, caught all eyes.The metropolitan people, who are used to all kinds of strange things, politely accommodated these non-mainstream people, and did not rudely ask questions.Although Alex was very curious about how he could see the road in front of him wearing the mask.

Every time a knight in full armor takes a step, the parts on his body will jingle non-stop, which can be regarded as the number one source of noise in a subway station.He came to Alex with clumsy steps, and patted the red-haired youth on the back hard.

"Do I know you?" Alex rubbed his sore back, the boss asked unwillingly.

The whole circle is that big, and most people know each other, or at least nodding acquaintances.

"It's me, little red hair." The armed knight raised his visor, revealing a rough and weather-beaten face.This person is the old man who led Alex into the circle - Humphrey, the owner of the "whale bone".

"Fuck, why are you dressed like this? Is there any competition today?"

"I'm going to a promotional event, so I'm going to dress like this. Did you just come out of the Aurora Club?"

"It's none of your business."

Nolan interrupted: "Alex, that's rude."

Recalling the fear of being almost picked up by his stepbrother to wash his mouth just now, Alex honestly shut up.

Humphrey put his hand on the visor and turned his gaze to this well-dressed gentleman. "Are you...?" He stared at Nolan's prosthetic for a while, and suddenly realized, "Alex's brother, right? He's been famous for a long time!"

"Nolan Norfolk. It's an honor to meet you."

The two shook hands politely.When he touched Humphrey's steel gauntlet, Nolan's expression distorted for a moment, as if to say, "It's actually the real thing."

Humphrey lowered his helmet and said in a low voice: "We plan to organize a new historical reenactment campaign, and today we are doing publicity for this. You two seem to be very skilled, do you want to be an actor?"

"Not interested!" Alex said impatiently.

"Really? But Cesar and Roman have signed up enthusiastically! If you don't participate, the leading actors this time will be a few people from Aurora!"

Upon hearing this, Alex immediately changed his words: "Then I will participate!" He didn't want to be robbed of the limelight by his competitors.

"Great! I'll send you the details later!"

After Humphrey swaggered away, Nolan raised his eyebrows: "You guys who hit the ring are so fond of soliciting customers and advertising?"

"There is no 'both'! Only those two people!"

***

A few minutes later, inside the Aurora Club.

Humphrey, who was fully armed, looked down at Cesar, who was scolded bloody by Lindsay. "We are planning to hold a new historical reenactment campaign, do you want to participate?"

"No time! I'm busy teaching students, so I don't have time to play medieval cosplay with you!"

"But I met Alex and the others just now, and they signed up very enthusiastically! They also said that this time they must show off and make the name of the Griffon Guard. If you don't participate, then I will set them as the leading role !"

Cesare rolled his eyes. "That little bastard...is it great to have a brother backing him? He actually pushed his nose in the face with me! Then we will sign up too!"

"Spine! I appreciate it!" Humphrey gave a thumbs up.

What a lie!he said in his heart.

"By the way, there's something I've been forgetting to ask." Humphrey hooked Cesar's shoulders sneakily, and dragged him aside, away from Lindsay's ear, "What did you have with your little cutie that day?" Is there any progress?"

Humphrey had a flattering face, as if the ancient Persian chief eunuch asked the prince for credit after he had advised the little prince and the princess' bed.However, in the eyes of the prince, his plan did not have any positive effect. Not only has the prince not climbed into the bed of his concubine, but he also scared her away just now. dead eunuch.

"Absolutely not!"

"What?! I stripped him naked and brought him in front of you, but you held back? When did you become a saint?" After speaking, Humphrey glanced suspiciously at Cesar's lower body, "Is there something wrong with your body?"

"What's wrong with you! Do I look like the kind of person who takes advantage of people's danger?"

"Like!" Humphrey said decisively.

Cesar reflexively punched him in the stomach, only to hear a "bang", the fleshy fist hit the metal plate armor, he let out a silent scream, and squatted down shaking his red and swollen hands.

Humphrey sneered: "Do you know the benefits of full armor?"

Cesar pursed his lips and said depressedly: "I only changed his clothes that day, saw his naked body, and did nothing else."

The only good thing is to harvest the sheets that Roman slept on.Now as long as he lies on that bed, he is so happy that he is about to ascend to heaven.Rounding it up means they are sharing the same bed!

"Wow, I can't believe you just 'looked at'."

"I had a nosebleed all over the place and almost called an ambulance. What do you think I could do in that situation?"

"Is it romantic to die under a peony flower and be a ghost?"

Cesar still wanted to punch him, but looked at his shiny armor and finally chose to endure wisely.That night was really a wonderful night of pain and joy. When he changed Roman's clothes, he felt as if his whole body had entered a state of sublimation of the soul, as if there were angels singing hymns in unison.Then the nosebleeds gushed out like a burst pipe, sending him back to the hell of desire.

"Not only did I make no progress that day, but I also met a person I least wanted to meet." Cesar gave Humphrey a hard look, "Why didn't you tell me about Edward?"

"Oh, you never asked!"

The answer was exactly the same as that of Mr. Blackson!Cesar suspected that the two had been trained in the same place, and had a solid grasp of the art of smooth talk and avoiding the important.

"Why won't he come back?"

"Isn't it possible to come back? After all, it's all like that. Do you want him to come back? If you tell him about the 'thing' after you, he will definitely come back crying and begging for your forgiveness."

Cesar was shaken for a moment, but he quickly regained his senses, and said contemptuously, "Forget it, I imagined that scene, and I was so disgusted that I almost fell over."

"It seems that you haven't calmed down yet. I'm surprised that your enemies are not overly jealous when they meet. You have finally grown up and learned how to behave as adults!" Humphrey said with emotion.

"Actually, I was a little jealous, but Roman is more important, so I let him go." Cesar paused, and asked in a low voice, "How is he doing now?"

Just as Humphrey was about to answer "It's better than when he ran away from home anyway", Cesar said first: "Forget it, if I didn't ask, I don't care about such insignificant things at all."

——You are obviously very worried!

The wise shopkeeper was silent this time.Making fun of and complaining about your friends is not a good way to grow friendships.Sometimes it is also necessary to pretend to be stupid at the right time to give the other party a step down.

"I will email you back with details about the battle. This time, Luke and I plan to hold a large-scale event, and we have invited a TV station to broadcast it live. There are several of your foreign friends among the participants, and I am looking forward to your performance. .” Humphrey chuckled.

"I have foreign friends? Why can't I remember?"

"Oh, it's the Viking, the Spaniard, and the Italian."

"...you must have a major misunderstanding of the definition of 'friend'."

"Don't you often have friendly exchanges on the field?"

Cesar raised an eyebrow. "Has such a thing happened? Why don't I remember?"

"By 'friendly exchanges' I mean you beat people to pieces."

"That's a lot of exchanges." Cesar nodded in agreement.

"As soon as I heard that your newly recruited student shocked everyone, they all expressed their desire to compete with him. I said that the historical reenactment battle is a good opportunity, so they rushed to sign up for it!"

"You sold Roman just like that?!"

"Why did you sell it? It's a fact! And Roman was the first person to sign up! I was talking to Luke about it at the time, and he happily ran over and begged us to give him a chance!" Humphrey said , "Of course what I said by 'excited' refers to his insane state of drunkenness. But I think that is probably a kind of registration!"

"So you had this purpose in abducting Roman to the bar!"

"It's all said that he took the initiative to participate!"

Cesar lost to this scheming old fox!Roman's kind of hidden medieval nerd must have been eager to try it when he heard that history is repeating the battle, plus Luke and Humphrey, two wily rogues, who intentionally or unintentionally guide him and the courageous effect of alcohol... It's basically packing himself It's here, Roman!Cesar thought bitterly.

Why did these two guys lure Roman to the bait, but he spent a lot of effort, Roman still can't arouse the slightest interest in him?Where did he go wrong?
