Durin's Diary

Durin stroked the black cat on the armrest of his chair, sitting on the black leather sofa. Through the glasses perched on his nose, his gaze passed over the long table in front of him and settled on the man kneeling on the carpet: "I understand, you've made money in Naples, your business has been very successful, and you've led a happy life. You've had those secret police, friends in both the law and the underground, and even the Royal Family speaking on your behalf." "You don't need a friend like me, I know that. You're afraid of owing me a favor, and you don't want to get involved in troubles." "But now you come to me and say, 'I beg you, Mr. Durin of the Corleon family, please help me seek justice, so that my life and my family will not suffer and sink into despair.' Yet, in your eyes, I was nothing more than a second-rate artist involved in movies and music. Even at the brink of death, you still show me such disrespect, not even willing to call me by my title... Keeper of Secrets."

Chapter 198: Someone Remembers

Durin didn't sleep all night.

Lina, the young dragoness, also stayed awake with him.

She would fly out from time to time, and then fly back in again. During the darkest time before dawn, Durin couldn't contain his curiosity any longer and asked why.

"Because I'm the strongest, Anta said she took Irene and left, everyone else was busy, and Melinda is a foolish girl who doesn't know how to comfort people, so they asked me to take care of you," Lina sat on the balcony railing, her golden eyes so conspicuous in the night.

"Lina, what do you think my father was like as a person?" Durin asked this question.

"A martyr. I just went downstairs, and that's what everyone was saying,"

Durin sat up from the recliner at Lina's reply, "Are there people downstairs?"

"Yes, quite a few. Some people arrived as early as four o'clock,"

"Let's go downstairs and take a look."
