Chapter 30 Chapter Twenty Nine

The peace and tranquility in the temple garden is not something that people like Su Ti can endure for a long time.Although the priestesses are all beautiful, they are not responsible for taking care of the patients, and they always hide away. Therefore, the only person they come into contact with every day is a male nurse who changes his medicine and has a rough temper. Less than a month after the operation, he could no longer bear the loneliness.He was restless when Nefiri came to examine him. "I've recovered." "Not quite, but you are doing very well. There are no ruptures in the sutures, the wound is healing well, and there is no infection at all."

"So I can go out!" "You have to promise me to take good care of yourself." Su Ti couldn't bear the excitement, and kissed her on both sides of the cheek. "You saved my life, and I will never forget your kindness. As long as you say a word, I will go through fire and water. A hero keeps his word!" "You just take a jar of healing water home and drink three small cups a day," Nefiri said with a smile. "Can't help beer?" "You can drink beer and wine, but in moderation." Su Ti puffed up her chest and stretched out her arms and shouted: "It feels so good to be born again! Only a woman can help me forget the pain I have suffered these days."

"Aren't you going to get married:" "Goddess Hador bless me, don't let me suffer from this disaster! Want me to keep a faithful wife, and a bunch of twittering radish heads? No. I want a mistress to change a mistress, and then another mistress , This kind of life is wonderful. Every woman has her own strengths and her own secrets.” "You seem very different from your friend Pazar." Nefiri couldn't help smiling. "Don't look at him as conservative, but he is passionate, maybe even worse than me. If only he dared to confess his love to you..." "He confessed. "

"He didn't just say it casually." "His words scare me." Nefiri said honestly how she felt. "Pazar loves only once in his life. When a man like him falls in love, he is in love for a lifetime. This is something that women can't always understand, because you need time to adapt and invest.Pazar is like a turbulent torrent, not a momentary fire, and his enthusiasm will not fade.He's so real that he's clumsy whether he's daring or eager.He disdains instant love and one-night stands. He can only talk about vigorous love. "What if he's wrong? "

"He will always work hard to achieve his ideal. It is impossible for him to compromise." "Do you think my concerns are justified?" Nefiri asked thoughtfully. "When it comes to love, reason is completely useless. Whatever you decide, I wish you well." Suti can understand Pazar's feelings very well, and Nefiri is indeed glamorous. He has been sitting under the palm tree without eating anything.His head fell to his knees, as if in mourning, and day and night made no difference to him.He is as calm as a rock, and even the children dare not go over to tease him.

"Pazar! It's me, Suti." He didn't respond. "You think she doesn't love you." Su Ti sat down next to her friend, leaned her back on the tree trunk, and continued to say: "There will be no second woman, and I know it too. I don't want to try to comfort you, your pain is something that others cannot Apportioned. But don't forget you still have unfinished business." Pazar remained silent. "You and I can't let Asherton get away with it, otherwise we will be sentenced to death again in the court of another life, and there is no room for rebuttal for our weak behavior."

Pazar remained motionless. "Whatever you want, you can just think about her here until you starve to death. I will deal with Asher alone." Only then did Pazar regain consciousness and looked at Suti: "He will destroy you." "Everyone has their own tolerance limit. You can't bear Nefiri's indifference to you, but I can't bear the face of a murderer appearing in my dreams every night." "I'll help you." Pazar wanted to stand up, but unexpectedly, the world turned around for a while, and he almost fell down on his knees. Suti hurriedly helped him up. "I'm sorry, but..." "You often tell me that you can't break your promise.

So the most urgent thing now is to quickly restore yourself. " The two of them boarded the ferry, which was still crowded.Pazar grudgingly ate some bread and onions. The wind whistled against his face. "Looking at the Nile River." Suti said to him, "The Nile River is the embodiment of holiness. Facing the river water, everyone feels so insignificant." Pazar followed his friend's words and stared at the clear water. "What are you thinking, Pazar?" "Do you still need to ask..." "How can you be sure that Nefiri doesn't love you? I talked to her and she..." "It's no use, Suti.

"Pazar just couldn't think about it. "Those who drown may really enjoy blessings, but they are still dead after all. What's more, you promised to bring Asher to justice." "If it wasn't for you, I would have given up." "Because you are not you anymore." Su Ti said reproachfully. "No, the current me is the real me, alone in the most miserable world of loneliness." Pazar was still occupied by hurt emotions, and replied pessimistically. "You'll forget." "You do not understand." "Time is the best pain reliever."

"Time does not erase memory." As soon as the boat touched the shore, the passengers pushed the donkeys, sheep and cattle off the boat one after another.The two of them waited for the crowd to disperse before climbing up the ladder and walking to the office of the Justice of Thebes.Upon inquiry, there was no letter to Pazar. "We're going back to Memphis," Suti said. "Are you in such a hurry?" Pazar glared at him resentfully. "I can't wait to see Asher. Can you briefly tell me the results of your investigation?" Pazar weakly recounted the process of the investigation, while Suti listened intently.

"Who is following you?" "have no idea." "Is it the style of the chief of police?" "possible." Su Ti thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Kani first, and then leave Thebes." Pazar meekly agreed.He still hovers on the edge of reality, indifferent to everything.Nefiri's refusal left him disheartened. Carney no longer takes care of the garden alone, and there are some more balanced irrigation systems in the garden.Most of the manpower is concentrated in the vegetable garden, and he is responsible for taking care of the herbs alone.Carney's shoulders became thicker and his skin became more and more wrinkled. He carried two heavy buckets and moved very slowly.But he would rather work hard by himself than allow anyone to touch his most beloved plants. Pazar introduced Suti to him, but he looked up and down and asked, "Your friend?" "In front of him, you don't have to hide what you have to say." "I continued to inquire about the ex-soldier. Carpenters, carpenters, water bearers, laundry workers, farmers... all walks of life have not been missed. Only a very weak clue: the person we are looking for is missing I used to work as a car repairman for a few days." After hearing this, Su Ti said, "It's not too weak, at least I know he's still alive!" "I hope so," Carney said. "Will he be killed too?" Su asked. "In short, there is no one to be found." "Keep looking," Pazar said. "The fifth ex-soldier is still alive." At night in Thebes, when the north wind blows the cool air, and two or three friends sit together under the pergolas and flower sheds to drink beer and enjoy the beauty of the setting sun, what could be more sympathetic than this in the world?The fatigue of the body has been eliminated, and the torment of the soul has also ceased. The western sky shows the beautiful face of the goddess of silence with red.Several pairs of white cranes flew by in the twilight. "Nefeli, I'm going back to Memphis tomorrow." "Work required?" "Suti witnessed a treasonous crime." Pazar hesitated, "For your safety, I'd better not say more." "Is the situation so critical?" "It's about the military." "You have to think about yourself too, Pazar." Nefiri said with concern. "Will you care about what happened to me?" Pazar's shy tone made Nefiri's face flush red. "Don't make fun of me. How I wish you were happy." "You are the only one who can make me happy." "You are always so absolute, so..." Facing this stubborn person, she really didn't know what to say. "Come with me." "Impossible. My feeling is not as strong as yours. Admit it, I am different from you. I have always been lukewarm." "It's simple: I love you. You don't love me, that's all." Pazar made a simple dichotomy of feelings, and Nefiri was very disapproving: "No, it's not that simple. Day and night cannot be clearly separated, and the division of seasons is not so clear. "Is there any hope for me?" " "If I said yes, I would be lying to you." "Look." Pazar's original hopes were extinguished. "Your feelings are too strong, too impatient... You can't ask me to return them with equal enthusiasm!" "No need to explain." "I don't know what's in my heart, so how can I give you a definite answer?" Nefiri was also flustered. "As soon as I leave, we will never see each other again." Pazar left with heavy steps.He secretly hoped that Nefiri would speak out to persuade him to stay, but in the end he was only disappointed again. The clerk Yalow bears little responsibility and is therefore not seriously at fault. The whole area is very peaceful, and no major crimes have occurred.After finishing the details, Pazar went to his residence as summoned by the chief of police. Meng Moxi's voice was still nasal and eager, but he was more smiley than usual. "My dear judge! I am very glad to see you again. Have you gone away?" "It's a job requirement." Pazar replied blankly. "Your jurisdiction is one of the safest jurisdictions. It seems that your reputation has indeed exerted a certain influence. Everyone knows that you absolutely act in accordance with the law." The chief paused, looked at him and said, "Let me take the liberty, you Good Oak is tired." "No big deal." "Yes Yes……" "What do you want me to do?" "This is a sensitive matter, and you are... regrettable. I followed your plan exactly as you planned regarding the suspicious grain storage tower. Do you remember? I once questioned the tower's function. Let me tell you a secret, I think There's nothing wrong with that." "The steward has escaped?" The young judge was startled. "No, no... None of his business at all. He wasn't there when the accident happened" "What accident? " "Half of the grain was stolen overnight from the storage tower." "What are you kidding?" Pazar couldn't believe his ears. "Oh, it's not a joke! It's the sad truth." "But you have guards." "Indeed. But the guards had to intervene because there was a fight near the granary. How can they be blamed? When they returned to their posts, they found that the grain had been stolen. Incredible!" Now, the condition of the storage tower does match the steward's report. " "Are there any suspects?" "There is no important clue left." "No witnesses?" "There are never many people around the barn, and the theft is perfect. It's not easy to find the burglar." "I suppose you've got your best police force out there?" "You can rest assured about that." Pazar suddenly changed his tone and asked, "Meng Moxi, tell me the truth, what kind of person do you think I am?" "Well..." Meng Moxi was at a loss for this sudden question, "I think you are a very conscientious judge." "Do you think I have any wit?" Meng Moxi said hehe twice: "Dear Pazar, you underestimate yourself too much!" "In that case, you should know that I don't believe what you just said at all." Madame Sirix was restless again, and she was now being carefully examined by a dream interpreter.The clinic was all painted black and was gloomy.Every week, Sirix would come here, lie on a straw mat, describe her succubi to the analyst, and ask for his opinion. The dream interpreter is a Syrian who has lived in Memphis for many years.He used many magic books and dream-interpretation books (some dream-interpretation books were discovered in modern times, which indicated the nature of dreams and attached explanations), and attracted a lot of customers who were mainly ladies and wealthy middle-class women.Even though the fees he charged were extremely high, didn't he also soothe the fragile hearts of these poor women?There is no time limit for the analyst to insist on treatment, yes, how can it be possible to stop dreaming?But only he can decipher the visions that haunt the brain in sleep.If a patient approaches and expresses his love for him, he will carefully decline and only accept some widows who still have charm. Sirix bit her finger. "Have you quarreled with your husband?" the analyst asked. "For the sake of the children." "What did the child do wrong?" "Lies. But it's not that serious! My husband was furious. I was protecting the child, and he yelled at me." Sirix seemed to be full of grievances. "Will he hit you?" "Occasionally, but I'll fight back." "Is he satisfied with the transformation of your figure?" "It's very satisfying! He always touches me... Sometimes, he will do whatever I tell him, as long as I don't mind his business." "Are you interested in his affairs?" "Not at all. We have enough money." "After this quarrel, how did you react?" "Same as before, locked in the room and yelled, and then fell asleep." "Did you have a long dream?" The dream interpreter began to cut into the topic. "The dreams were all the same. First, I saw a cloud of fog floating on the river. Then, something, probably a boat, tried to get through the fog. Then the sun came out and the fog cleared. I saw I saw a huge male genitalia, which was going straight forward. I turned around and tried to hide in a house by the Nile, but the room turned into a female genitalia again. I was curious and scared." Sirius gasped.The dream interpreter said to her: "You have to be careful. According to the dream interpretation book, dreaming of male genitals is a precursor to theft." "What about the female genitalia?" "It's poverty." Mrs. Sirix rushed to the warehouse immediately, regardless of the disheveled hair.Her husband was blaming two people, while those two were shaking their arms with sad and helpless faces. "I'm sorry, my dear, to bother you. You have to be careful, we might get stolen and lose everything." "You warned me too late," Meifeng said angrily. "These two captains, like the others, said that there was no ship that could transport me papyrus from the Delta to Memphis. Our warehouses are still empty." go down."
