Moonlight on the Bay of Naples

Chapter 10 Evil Dogs Eat Dogs

Midsummer is not over yet, but there is already a message of autumn.

The chamber was silent. "No, no, no, no!" Louis threw a proposal on the ground, "It's all trash!" The young man standing at the front hung his head, his hands hanging by his sides, and they were clenched tightly.

The youth watched from the sidelines with cold eyes.

The famine has just passed half a year, and it is time to recuperate.But King Louis only cared about his great ambition - the progress of building art galleries all over the country.The Senate rejected the order by a majority of negative votes—yes, he always thought he was talking about an order rather than a proposal.

It seems to be dreaming back to the era when the royal family was arbitrarily authoritarian.

The king retaliated and successively overturned the New Deal proposals from the Senate, and the young people never expressed their views on this.

The young man who had been reprimanded head and face caught up with the young man after the meeting was dissolved. "Senior, I think your silence is inappropriate!" He graduated one class later than the youth, participated in the revolution, and has been in politics for almost two years, but his words and deeds are still reckless.

The young man sees a trace of innocence and enthusiasm from his recklessness, just like another self who died in the past.

What can he say? "I think your abruptness is even more inappropriate, please move away." The young man was pushed away by him with a resentful expression.

Then came the captain of the guard, Qian Ken.

"Sir, tonight's night patrol will focus on the south and east."

"Thank you." The young man gave him a piece of gold as usual.Qian Ken is his man, and he has always treated him kindly.

"To our affectionate." The landlady gave him a firm hug with a burst of fragrance, and then stuffed into his pocket the gift that the young man had ordered for a long time.

It was a set of shell combs, edged with iridescent pearls, from the distant Gulf of Naples.

Young people have always liked to give Nuo Lin something with a warm luster.In the night, in the silence, they are one with Noreen and the moonlight.

How inhumane is his moonlight, how far away from him...

Young people roam the streets.

The pessimism and disappointment of feelings and the future of the whole country were dizzy in front of him.

He turned the corner of the street and ran into his former classmate unexpectedly.

There was similar distress in the eyes of the two people.

The classmate was stunned at first, and then raised his eyebrows: "Does the big red have troubles?"

"Hells, don't do this." The young man invited him to drink with him.

It has been a long time since they sat at the same wine table and talked about things.

Hull Hess picked a secluded place, his serious and cold face made prostitutes stay away.

Young people think they will talk about ideals, the situation, and have a few drinks as usual.

But old friends were the first to accuse him.

Accused him of forgetting his heart.With his right to speak, if the Senate does not remain neutral, it is not difficult for the Senate to implement these policies.

"Is it useful?" The young man just sneered, without refuting.

Hershey drank his head down.

Odin is a bloated machine that has been in operation for too long, and is full of bad habits, which can affect the whole body.What the Senate is doing now is nothing more than keeping it in its old form and introducing policies that don't hurt or itch.

He could only watch as the machine continued to stumble and work until it finally collapsed.

The young man muttered to himself while holding a wine glass.His eyes were already a little drunk, "Such a king, it doesn't matter. How can such a royal family be above the people."

Helhes was startled, he never expected that the young man would say such a thing.

"Come on, Hells!" The old friend's funny expression slightly dispelled the youth's depression, "I'm not the same as you."

How different it is, the young man did not tell Hershey.

The power of the Helhes family comes from the north of Odin. When he argues for the reform in the council hall, he will never talk about the north.

The young man understands him. Although his ideals are good, they must not harm the real family interests.

Everyone thinks so.Hell Hess is, the juniors are, all the students who shot the revolution are.

Except for youth, of course.

He was a commoner... not so pure a commoner.

The princess elopes with the bard, becomes pregnant and lives in seclusion in a foreign country.No matter how embarrassing the royal family, the illegitimate child must not be degraded to the point of being illiterate. The Queen Mother Murphy instructed her confidant, Baron Firth, to bring him back to Odin for education.

The strange death of the queen mother made his life experience secret forever sealed in the tomb. He entered school to study in the name of the baron's distant nephew, and communicated with the powerful.

But his childhood life established his youthful disposition early, and he deeply sympathized with the civilian class who were born to support the powerful with their flesh and blood.

If it weren't for Noreen, he might have stayed at his alma mater to teach, and he would have ended up cynical.

Now that he is standing in a position where he can lift weights lightly, the direction of the wind may not be unaffected by him.

What should he do?

Young people can see the moon when they look up.It was silent.

not the right time yet.He shook his head and pressed the gift he had brought to Norin.

Ever since Norin put on a gesture of withdrawing at any time, their relationship has become uncertain.

"I need my own space, don't let people follow me, okay?"

Nuo Lin's attitude would become elusive every now and then, and a few more hickeys of unknown origin would be added to his body afterwards.

The young man hurried away.He walked with anger, as if he was going to seek revenge, but he was heartbroken.

Lorraine actually stood under the plane tree and looked at the moon.

He was cold and wet.

"What's wrong? It's so cold!" The young man was so nervous that he took off his clothes and covered him.

Nolin was wrapped in a black coat and melted into the night, "I will be burned by the fire of hell."

"Nolin, my fool," the young man hugged him tenderly, loving him infinitely: "There is no god in this world."

He is also an atheist.

Norin trembled in his arms, and opened his eyes blankly.

He surprised two people in the same day. , but there is always only one person who can make him feel up and down.

"Let's go back to the room, you should take a hot bath."

But Norin seemed to have taken root, tightly grasping the trunk of the sycamore tree.

"Someone died here."

"Who?" The young man was shocked.

"A dog."

"It's okay." He bowed his head and kissed Norin with infinite tenderness.

Qian Ken raised a vicious dog, which was half the height of a man.Its fur is black and shiny, and its saliva smells fishy.He gave the vicious dog a majestic name, Cerberus.

This is really a good dog, vicious and warlike, rarely barks, and only listens to Qian Ken.

The only disadvantage is that it has a huge amount of food, and it needs to be fed at least half a cow to fully feed it.In order to support Cerberus, Qian Ken went around taking private jobs.

Chinken had always liked the extravagance of youth.Especially today, a piece of gold and a good meal from Cerberus.

He simply couldn't love youth.

Noreen watched from an upstairs window.Dripping saliva, Cerberus buried himself in his stomach and gnawed.The treacherous and pleasant sound of eating slid across the pond, and it didn't float very far before being swallowed by the dullness in the air.

"Crack - crunch, click."

Huge canine heads move, casting shadows on their bodies.

Cerberus picked and picked, crushing the thigh bones with several bites.The smell of blood was unavoidable, and Noreen felt sick, but enjoyed it.

The moonlight was cold and cold, illuminating this scene like an oil painting on earth.

"As you wish, I will send you to hell. Do you like it? Your Excellency."

Noreen recalled the distorted face of the bishop before his death.

He doesn't like to go to the opera.But one song was remembered by him because of its funny tune and simple lyrics.

It'sa world where the dog gets the dog.

Bad dogs eat dogs.

Excellent.

The author has something to say:

The lyrics are from the Les Miserables musical Thénardier, not an opera
