Page 295 [It's Raining]
It's raining.
In the evening.
The tiny raindrops suddenly fell silently.
The hit on the wide lake caused ripples, and the house next to the Dayuan Lake, which was not tall and gorgeous, was a little poetic.
I'm afraid no one can imagine it.
It is just like this kind of old house that is not so prominent in the War Academy. It is a little old and unknown rattan that has almost crawled half the walls. It actually lives. Now the most powerful man in Valorand, the Speaker of the Supreme Parliament, Lalivash.
It's dusk.
Lalivash sat alone on the balcony near the lake, and the tiny raindrops were dripping from the old eaves above his head.
If it weren't for his black robe that never leaves his body all year round, then the old cover book in his hand, the exquisite and quaint chair under him, and the pot of sizzling tea beside him would make him look like an ordinary, old man.
On a rainy evening, I sat alone in the rain, recalling the past years.
pity……
"You're here." He suddenly closed the book in his hand and said to him. "Yes, sir." Behind him was an extremely respectful voice. This man always stood behind him and dared not take a step forward.
"How is it?" Lalivash put the book aside and looked at the lake decorated with drizzle. The misty rain was hazy, as if he was looking into the distance.
"Everything was as you expected." The person behind him answered very carefully, as if he was afraid that he would have made a mistake.
"Are you afraid of me?" Lalivash withdrew his mind, turned his head slightly, and said.
"Your glory makes everyone feel awe." The man held his breath even more and restrained his mind.
"Jerico, I give you life again, are you happy?" Lalivash seemed to smile. In the subtle rain, there was a bone-broken coldness.
"You are my God, I have never had happiness." The person behind him turned out to be, Jerico.
"Jerico, you are a good boy, I like you very much." Lalivash raised his hands and seemed to sigh. A fine raindrop blew from the lake, wetting his black robe, and finally, he had a trace of humanity?
"You are better than Ezreal. He has too many unnecessary ambitions, you don't, right?" Right?
When these two words were expressed, the human flavor dissipated again on Lalivash.
Only terrifying shadows remain.
"When...of course." Jerrico replied a little reluctantly, probably lowering his head unconsciously.
"What do they think now?" Lalivash paused, changed his subject and said something else.
"They naturally want the biggest portion of the cake." Jerry Curd paused and said again. "So..."
"So what do you think? What do you think?" Lalivash interrupted him and asked, "What are your suggestions? You must know that you are the one I trust the most now."
"Thank you, sir." Jericho did not dare to show a trace of joy. Although being able to gain Lalivash's trust was almost equivalent to holding half of the continent.
"My thought is..." Jericho suddenly became excited when he said this, and even his breathing could not help but speed up a lot.
"Gudong--" At this moment, the tea was ready.

The rain is still falling.
Summoner's Tavern.
Next to the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows covered with raindrops.
Sarco's face was tightly pressed against the glass window, as if he was about to see something from outside through the messy window pulled by raindrops.
"Mr. Jax hasn't come back yet." The person sitting opposite him suddenly said in a long silence, "It's almost half a month."
Her voice is pure, with the unique youthful vitality of a girl of seventeen or eighteen.
She was wearing a long white dress, and in the dark lights of the tavern, she looked like a white orchid blooming quietly.
Jessica.
This girl with the same name as the girl who died on a muddy and rainy night is now graceful.
She slowly stirred a cup of light green liquid, her face calmly, and she looked at the enemy who was only half a yard away from him, who was killed by his brother.
Now she will no longer yell at him, nor will she say she will kill him in a vague way.
She just did everything quietly, took orders and scouted the site for him, and walked side by side with him on the night after the murder.
When it rains, open a large umbrella that covers two people.
When it's windy, she will take two coats that can fly in the wind.
Sometimes, she would laugh, or, with him, go to some midnight restaurants to have something to eat.
Sometimes, even she herself felt that she had forgotten what she had done before.
But, did you really forget?
"Oh?" Sarko seemed to have finally come back to her senses and said softly. Obviously, she was not focused on this matter.
"What are you looking at?" Jessica asked, sucking a sip of the green liquid.
"Shh..." Sarko deliberately made a very mysterious look and said, "Secret."
"The garrison hopes that you can kill his deputy for him, because his wife seems to have an affair with him, and the reward is 500 gold coins." Jessica ignored him and talked about the latest order he received, "And there is Marquis of Moren of Demacia. I hope you can go to the West Coast. His younger brother needs to solve it urgently. For family property, the reward is 800 gold coins, and..."
"Shh..." Jessica was about to continue, but was interrupted by Sarco. He continued to stare at the glass window intently and said absent-mindedly, "I don't work lately..."
"Why?"
"because……"
“It’s raining.”
Outside the window where it was already night, the lights of the carriage flashed by, reflecting their young faces.
And behind the counter, Joey was also looking at the darkening night outside, with a deep light in his eyes.

“Did you decide?”
In an underground tavern.
In front of the counter that has accumulated dust.
The two wine glasses are full.
Katerina and Tyron sat side by side.
In this tavern at night, there is an unspeakable bleakness.
"Of course I'm going." Katerina picked up one of the wine glasses and said seriously and solemnly.
"Sister..." Taylon whispered, but didn't know how to continue.
"That's our motherland, it's Noxus, I..." Katerina drank the wine in her glass and suddenly stood up and said, "It's a Noxus soldier."
