Returns to the oneself dwelling, Alstay to leisurely stroll to enter the bedroom. He lies down toward the oneself bed on, and rotates the hand of bedhead low cabinet. floor under bed sank suddenly, the tail block downward dump, under floor really also has a secretly thought. When the bed inclines 45 degrees, Alstay then slipped into the secretly thought neatly. The induction lamp of secretly thought shone, passes through not too long passage, the fat minister arrived at the secretly thought end. 回到自己的住处,阿尔斯泰信步走进卧室。他往自己床上一躺,并转动床头矮柜的把手。床下的地板突然沉了下去,床尾向下倾卸,地板之下竟然还有条暗道。在床倾斜成45度时,阿尔斯泰不费吹灰之力便滑进了暗道里。暗道的感应灯亮了起来,走过一条不算太长的通道,胖大臣来到了暗道尽头。 A leaf of titanium alloy front door blocked the way, after inputting a series of passwords, the alloy front door enters toward the inside slip, again since the left sideslip opens, reveals the following spacious space. Alstay walked, here is a covert basement, the thick and long electric cable lays down in the ground, has extended toward ahead, the end point is a metal pedestal base, above is the drum biochemical trough. 一扇钛合金大门挡住了去路,输入一连串密码之后,合金大门往内滑进,再从左侧滑开,露出后面一个宽敞的空间。阿尔斯泰走了进去,这里是个隐蔽的地下室,粗且长的电缆铺设在地面,一直往前方延伸,终点是一个金属基台,上面则是个圆桶似的生化槽。 In the biochemical trough overbrimmed the light blue biochemical Kiribati fluid, since has the air bubble to brave from the foundation unceasingly, is drifting together silhouette in that. That is a man, only wears shorts, vigorous and healthy on has several obvious scabs. A mask buckles on his face, the mask is connecting the oxygen machine as well as other equipment, its function is to maintain the oxygen supplies as well as supervises man the life characteristics of peak. 生化槽里注满了浅蓝色的生化基液,不断有气泡从底座冒起,在那里面飘浮着一道身影。那是个男人,仅穿着条短裤,健壮的上身有几道明显的伤疤。一个面罩扣在他的脸上,面罩连接着顶端的氧气机以及其它器材,它的作用是维持氧气供给以及监察男人的生命特征。 Alstay arrives in front of the biochemical trough, looked at various readings on electronic board, nods. The man in biochemical trough as if felt that his arriving, under the mask that closed eye opened suddenly, then in nearby intercom resounds a sound: „Did you tell Horne that matter?” 阿尔斯泰走到生化槽前面,看了一眼电子板上的各种读数,点了点头。生化槽里的男人似乎感觉到他的来到,面罩下那双紧闭的眼睛突然张了开来,然后旁边的对讲机里响起一个声音:“你将那件事告诉霍恩了？” „Un, he imagines compared with me calm, I think that he will fly into a rage.” Alstay sighed: „Originally is most ideal prevents Alan through our strengths, but even the clown also wants to bribe the Son of Dusk strength, I can only offer this bad plan.” “嗯,他比我想像中冷静,我本以为他会暴跳如雷。”阿尔斯泰叹道:“本来最理想是通过我们的力量阻止阿兰,可连小丑也想染指黄昏之子的力量,我只能出此下策。” „If the Laotian Horne know oneself old friend unexpectedly is the Hidden Light Council important member, the expression will be very splendid.” The man's in biochemical trough with a tone of taunt said. “要是老霍恩知道自己的老友竟然是光隐会的重要成员,想必表情会十分精彩。”生化槽里的男人用一种嘲讽的口吻说道。 „You want to say that I do use Horne? Even, but I do not think oneself making the mistake. The Hidden Light Council objective is to observe and guidance, now the Alan behavior has started to lose control, the clown they must interfere, they have departed from this organization's tenable original intention. I just revise the impact that they have, as for Horne, my know he cares about Allen very much, although in that part of compensation psychology in unseemly behavior, but you are undeniable, the Allen's importance is increasing day by day. No matter out of what goal, Horne will not allow the oneself most potential family members is so treated.” “你想说我利用霍恩吗？就算是吧,但我不认为自己做错。光隐会的宗旨是观察和引导,现在阿兰的行为已经开始失控,小丑他们则要干涉,他们都已经背离了这个组织成立的初衷。我只不过修正他们所带来的影响,至于霍恩,我知道他很关心艾伦,尽管那里面有一部分补偿心理在作怪,可你不可否认,艾伦的重要性正在与日俱增。不管出于什么目的,霍恩都不会允许自己最有潜力的家族成员遭到如此对待。” „But you are also clear, once the Horne involvement, matter will be out of control. Alstay, thinks with your brain well, what consequence does this will cause. Perhaps after today, because the federation a you careless decision is split up!” “可你也清楚,一旦霍恩介入,事情就将一发不可收拾。阿尔斯泰,用你的脑子好好想想,这样做会带来什么样的后果。或许今天之后,联邦会因为你一个草率的决定而四分五裂！” Alstay laughed: „Felt strange, this matter most does not have the qualifications to accuse my should be you. However you do not need too to worry, I too understood Horne, he can operation, but operation limited.” 阿尔斯泰笑了起来:“奇怪了,这件事最没资格指责我的应该是你吧。不过你也不用太担心,我太了解霍恩了,他会行动,可行动是有限度的。” „You also are really his good friend!” “你还真是他的好朋友！” „Naturally. In fact I hesitant evening, makes this decision. Because besides Horne, whom I really cannot find out to reverse now this aspect. More importantly, I do not have time to continue to consider to get down. Horne is my good friend, before was, in the future will also be, this will not have anything to change. merely my standpoint, decided I am unable only the position of stood on friend to consider this matter, I need to worry compared with many that you imagine.” Alstay knocked the biochemical trough gently: „In any event, my Allen. Bethkode rescues go out, no matter with what means.” “当然。事实上我犹豫了一个晚上,才做出这个决定。因为除了霍恩之外,我实在想不出有谁可以逆转现在这个局面。重要的是,我没有时间继续考虑下去。霍恩是我的好朋友,以前是,将来也是,这点不会有什么改变。只是我的立场,决定了我无法仅站在朋友的位置上去考虑这件事,我需要顾虑的远比你想像的多。”阿尔斯泰轻轻敲了敲生化槽:“无论如何,我会把艾伦.贝思柯德救出去的,不管用什么办法。” „Then I, when you plan to let my go out!” “那么我呢,你打算什么时候让我出去！” „You need to heal from a wound.” “你需要养伤。” „My wound is good!” “我的伤早就好了！” Alstay sighed: „Now is also not the time, friend of mine. You must have the patience, when the world needs you, I ensure can make you go out of this region.” 阿尔斯泰叹道:“现在还不是时候,我的朋友。你得有耐心,当世界需要你的时候,我保证会让你走出这个地方。” „When that is, world Judgement Day?” “那是什么时候,世界末日吗？” „Perhaps, whose know.” Beckons with the hand, the Alstay round trip walks. “也许吧,谁知道呢。”摆了摆手,阿尔斯泰往回走。 In the biochemical trough the air bubble wells up anxiously, the eye anger under mask ascends, but the man also has no alternative. 生化槽里气泡急涌,面罩下的眼睛怒火升腾,可男人却又无可奈何。 Black Galle old castle. 乌加勒古堡。 Horne sits in the oneself position peacefully, on his knee, conceals famous blade Autumn Winds turning weaponry horizontal. He overlaps both hands to place this gently on the turning weaponry, as if can feel sharp firm will that the among Autumn Winds that thin as cicada wing knife glows. At the same time Yang illuminant shield is opening in his before one's eyes, the picture of illuminant shield presents say/way silhouette one after another, these are the Bethkode important members. among included eldest son Rodey, elder Tyre and Ed Ricker as well as other ten people. These people crowd together, is the Bethkode Presbyterianism member. 霍恩安静地坐在自己的位置上,在他的膝盖上,藏着名刀秋滟的拐仗横置。他交叠着双手轻轻放在这把拐仗上,仿佛能够感觉到其中秋滟那薄如蝉翼般的刀身所焕发的锋利锐意。一面央光屏正在他眼前打开,光屏的画面相继出现道道身影,这些都是贝思柯德的重要成员。其中就包括了长子罗迪,长老泰尔、埃德里克以及其它十来人。这些人凑在一起,就是贝思柯德的长老会成员。 Visits them, in the Horne heart sighed lightly. 看着他们,霍恩心中轻叹。 After everyone attended this temporary conference call, Rodey first could not bear ask: „father, calls us anxiously, has an accident?” 在所有人都出席这个临时的视频会议之后,罗迪第一个没忍住问:“父亲,这么急召集我们,是出了什么事吗？” „Some matters must announce.” Horne looks at these humanity: The matter that „everyone, then must announce is extremely possibly hasty, you will feel puzzled even angry. But I want to ask you to believe, believes all these for the decision that family's future makes.” “是有一些事要宣布。”霍恩看着这些人道:“各位,接下来要宣布的事可能太过仓促,你们会感到不解甚至愤怒。可我想请你们相信,相信这一切都是为了家族的未来所做出的决定。” Tyre coughs lightly a sound said: „Please say that Sir Clan head. I want to present everyone am experience the person of great storms, even if must resort to violence with the federation, we will not frown.” 泰尔轻咳一声道:“就请说吧,族长大人。我想在座各位都是经历过大风大浪的人,哪怕是要和联邦动武,我们也不会皱一下眉头。” The people approve. 众人纷纷赞同。 Horne shakes the head: „No, I must announce that is completely another matter. Then, is witnessed by the Bethkode Presbyterianism whole staff. Starting from this moment, my Horne no longer is Bethkode Clan head. Even I will remove, my name emigration genealogy. When I go out of this door at that moment starting from, I no longer will be Bethkode one. The position of as for Clan head, I want to give Rodey temporarily, he will replace the business that I handle the family......” 霍恩摇了摇头:“不,我要宣布完全是另一件事。那么接下来,由贝思柯德长老会全员见证。从这一刻开始,我霍恩将不再是贝思柯德的族长。甚至我将自我除名,将我的名字移出族谱。当我走出这扇门那一刻开始,我将不再是贝思柯德的一员。至于族长之位,我想交给罗迪暂替,他将代替我打理家族的事务……” „What?” “什么？” „What's the matter?” “怎么回事？” Rodey called out: „Day, what father are you saying? How this, wait/etc., actually what happened makes you probably make such decision?” 罗迪叫道:“天,父亲你在说什么？这怎么可以,等等,究竟发生了什么事才让你得做出这样的决定？” Other elder also closely examine, Horne suddenly announced abdicates, and self- exile. This decision must make war with the federation is more astonishing, facing face that expressions vary, Horne stood up, said solemnly: „I hope is clear very much with explanation, but I do not have time now. I must leave immediately, the as for reason, I hold Helsing Butler to reorganize a concrete written document, at the appointed time will transmit by him to everyone.” 其它长老也纷纷追问,霍恩突然宣布退位,并且自我放逐。这个决定比要和联邦开战更加让人吃惊,面对一张张表情不一的脸孔,霍恩站了起来,沉声道:“我很希望跟各位解释清楚,可现在我没有时间了。我必须马上离开,至于原因,我已经托海辛管家整理出一份具体的书面文件,届时将由他发送给各位。” „The just now those words, please believe me, I make such decision, what consideration will be family's future.” Horne nods: „This, the gentlemen, want also to have the opportunity of meeting.” “还是刚才那句话,请你们相信我,我做出这样的决定,考虑的是家族的未来。”霍恩点了点头:“就这样吧,先生们,希望还有见面的机会。” Then, he left the conference room. 说罢,他离开了会议室。 Outside the room, Helsing Butler looks at Horne saying: „Master, the matter that you explain I have handled. Now issues the young masters and other elder the material?” 房间外头,海辛管家看着霍恩道:“老爷,你交待的事情我已经办好了。现在把资料发给少爷和其它长老吗？” „No, first issues Rodey. Waits to issue Tyre tomorrow again them, if issue goes together, they cannot the cooker.” Horne shows a faint smile, said: „Helsing Butler, these years was laborious you. Every so often I am not a competent manager, this time is also so, these years makes you have a headache very much.” “不,先发给罗迪。等明天再发给泰尔他们,要是一起发出去的话,他们还不得炸锅。”霍恩微微一笑,道:“海辛管家,这些年辛苦你了。很多时候我都不是一个称职的管理者,这次也是如此,想必这些年让你很头痛吧。” The Helsing body trembles, bends the waist to bow saying: „Can serve for the master, is my being honored.” 海辛身体一颤,弯腰鞠躬道:“能够为老爷服务,是我的荣幸。” „No matter how said, in me, you are one of the I most important friends. Before these words, places at heart , because did not facilitate to say. But can say today finally, know had not imagined is so difficult. Ok, my did flying warship prepare?” “不管怎么说,在我心里,你是我最重要的朋友之一。这些话以前都放在心里,是因为不方便说。可今天终于能够说出来了,才知道原来也没有想像中那么困难嘛。好了,我的飞舰准备好了吗？” „Has awaited orders in the square.” “已经在广场待命了。” Horne helps up Laotian Butler, indifferently said: „This time did not need to deliver, sees again.” 霍恩扶起老管家,淡淡道:“这次就不用送了,再见。” „Master!” Helsing wanted to say anything, finally swallows back the words, said with a nod: „All be careful.” “老爷！”海辛想要说什么,最后还是把话咽了回去,点头道:“一切小心。” Horne has turned around, the stride goes. 霍恩转过身,大步而去。 He saw Anna in downstairs hall, puts on Anna carries both hands behind of one western-style clothes as before, looks that the eye of Horne said: „Can master go?” 他在楼下大厅见到了安娜,依旧穿着一套西服的安娜双手负后,看着霍恩的眼睛说:“老爷非去不可？” „Ten years ago, Lannie left me. But my anything has not done, eventually caused to lose him forever.” The Horne footsteps keep: „Therefore today, I cannot lose Allen again. No matter he is what Son of Dusk, is the federal prisoner. My only know, he is my family member! No one can like treating the pig sheep treats my Horne family member, the federal president is not good!” “十年前,兰妮离开了我。而我什么也没做,最终导致永远失去了他。”霍恩脚步不停:“所以今天,我不能再失去艾伦。不管他是什么黄昏之子,还是联邦的囚犯。我只知道,他是我的家人！没有人能够像对待猪羊一样对待我霍恩的家人,联邦总统也不行！” „But you have other family members.” “可你还有其它家人。” „Therefore I send into exile from already.” Horne stopped, looks to the oneself warrior: „Allen I must rescue, but simultaneously I cannot make the federation have the handle because of this point to seize. Now Horne is only Horne, even if today what happened, has nothing to do with Bethkode. If your bright White's words, please make way, Anna.” “所以我放逐自已。”霍恩停了下来,看向自己的武士:“艾伦我要救,可同时我也不能因为这一点而让联邦有把柄可捉。现在霍恩仅是霍恩,纵使今天会发生什么事,也和贝思柯德无关。如果你明白的话,就请让开,安娜。” „I will not make way.” Anna smiles: „Because I must go with you, Master. Anna is the Horne secret warrior, there is nothing to do forever his status, because only he is Horne.” “我不会让开。”安娜笑了笑:“因为我得和你一起去,老爷。安娜永远是霍恩的秘密武士,这一点无关他的身份,仅因为他是霍恩。” „I cannot you do that you have the child.” Horne shakes the head. “我不许你这么做,你还有孩子。”霍恩摇头。 „My know, but you could rest assured that I have arranged all. Anna said solemnly: „ I am a mother, but I before am a mother, is master's warrior. Which the master goes, where I am naturally. Even if you must move toward the darkness, I must follow.” “我知道,但你放心,我已经安排好一切。安娜沉声道:“我是一个母亲,可我在身为母亲之前,便已经是老爷的武士。老爷去哪,我自然在哪。即使你要走向黑暗,我必跟随。” „This is the say/way of my warrior!” “这是我的武士之道！” Horne deeply looked at her one eyes, said with a nod: „That comes, time does not wait for the person.” 霍恩深深看了她一眼,点头说:“那就来吧,时间不等人呢。” In the afternoon, the federal information located discover flying warship that did not have marking from Black Galle old castle set off, without registered the whereabouts to the federal control bureau, then left Babylon. The federation sends out the fast battleship interception immediately, actually be relentless strikes to drop to the opposite party. When Alan receives the notice, the information place has lost that flying warship trace. 这天下午,联邦情报处发现一艘没有标识的飞舰从乌加勒古堡出发,没有向联邦管制局登记去向,便离开了巴比伦。联邦立刻派出快速战斗舰拦截,却给对方毫不留情地击堕。等阿兰接到通知时,情报处已经失去那艘飞舰的踪影。 On the same day, the Black Galle old castle issued a statement in the name of Horne outward, stated that announced Horne hands over the Bethkode Clan head position, and expelled the family oneself, since then does not have one point to relate with Bethkode again. When this statement issues through the media, entire Babylon just like experience a macroseism, everyone felt bewildered about the decision of Horne, only few talent know this stated the back profound meaning. 同日,乌加勒古堡以霍恩的名义对外发表了一份声明,声明里宣布霍恩交出贝思柯德族长的位置,且将自己逐出了家族,从此和贝思柯德再无一分关系。当这份声明通过媒体发布时,整个巴比伦犹如经历了一场强震,所有人都对霍恩的这个决定感到莫明其妙,只有极少数人才知道这份声明背后的深意。 Alstay absolutely is one of the among, when receiving this news he was just oneself but actually one glass of liquor. After hearing this news, he tosses down, thought that normally mellow delicious good wine, today becomes bitter and astringent incomparable. 阿尔斯泰绝对是其中之一,接到这个消息时他刚好为自己倒了一杯酒。听完这个消息后,他一饮而尽,却觉得平日香醇可口的美酒,今天变得苦涩无比。
