Chapter 451: Outer island

The "News of the World", to be precise, should be the reaction of the "Sun", Evan Bell didn't know, and he didn't care. After leaving London, he put all the troubles behind him for a while.

Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. In this city, known as the Venice of the North, there is a beauty that Venice can't match, snow. This old city, which has a history of more than 700 years, has now been covered by white snow, and the white snow that covers the sky and the earth has painted the ancient Stockholm into a pure white world. Since Sweden was a neutral country in both world wars, the country was spared the destruction of the war, and the city still retains the wealth left over from the distant era. The city walls decorated with carvings and moments, the ancient castles made of stone and bricks, and the narrow winding streets make Stockholm exude an old and young, elegant and prosperous temperament.

The splendid palaces, magnificent churches, towering spires, and streets like a chessboard have constructed the style of the ancient city of the Middle Ages: high-rise buildings, neat streets, green trees and sparkling b-light symphony. The new age is more prosperous than the urban area. Cars, planes, ospreys, and seagulls are intertwined in the snow-covered city. Looking up, the satellite cities dotted in the distance bring a feeling of smoke and dream, making this "peaceful city" more outstanding.

When arriving in Stockholm, the airport did not see any media and fans. It's not that Evan-Bell is not well known in Sweden, but because no one expected Evan-Bell to come to Stockholm to do it, it's all about his personal itinerary. After Evan Bell left Arlanda Airport, the news of his arrival in Sweden spread on the Internet.

During the summer vacation last year, Evbel visited Stockholm. Although he only stopped for three days, he was deeply impressed by this city that is a bit like Venice, a bit like Paris, and a bit like Madrid. Leaving the Arlanda International Airport surrounded by endless forests, Evan Bell did not have the joy of visiting the city for the second time, because after arriving in Stockholm, Eden Hudson was a little unusual.

Although Eden-Hudson's iceberg face was never really happy, Evan Bell could still feel the bluntness and coldness beneath his iceberg face. At this time, Eden-Hudson's stiff face was even more cold, and he was a little distracted, staring at the familiar and unfamiliar city scenery outside the subway.

In Evan Bell's memory, Eden Hudson hadn't been back to Sweden since the two of them met. Evan Bell always thought Eden-Hudson was a native American, but his father was British and his mother was Swedish. This time, Eden-Hudson suddenly took a leave of absence from the law firm and rushed back to Sweden. The incident itself was very strange.

The only reason Evan Bell didn't ask is that Eden Hudson doesn't seem to have any intention of speaking. Now, after arriving in Stockholm, Eden Hudson's performance was even more abnormal, which made Evan Bell have a bad feeling in his heart.

Unlike Venice, which is "walking by boat", although Stockholm of the "Northern Venice" is also an island city, its main means of transportation is the subway. The subway in this city crosses the seabed and extends in all directions. Looking out of the subway window, this azure blue world exudes a coldness of winter, just like the cold and arrogant temperament in Eden-Hudson's bones.

Sweden produces handsome guys, which is a fact recognized worldwide. There was once a travel website that voted, and Stockholm won the list of the world's most handsome cities. With an average height of six feet, a sculptural figure, a handsome blond face, and the temperament bred by the Nordic soil and water, it is always unforgettable. Obviously, Eden-Hudson has inherited the fine lineage of handsome men from Britain and Sweden. The blue light outside the window reflects on Eden-Hudson's angular face, and the slightly curly short blonde hair has also changed. It got sharper, and the cold temperament on his body that refused to be thousands of miles away was like a big iceberg moving slowly on the calm seaside, which cooled the surrounding temperature a lot.

Transfer, transfer, transfer. Evan Bell followed the silent Eden Hudson on the subway all the way for about two hours, then changed the bus and took a ferry, and arrived at an unfamiliar island. . The city of Stockholm mainly has thirteen islands and a peninsula. If you add the suburban islands, there are a full 24,000. Even if Evan and Bell have a good sense of direction, he can't figure out where he is at this time. . It is also possible to say that it has left the city limits of Stockholm.

Following behind Eden Hudson, Evan Bell looked at the scenery calmly. The lush forest stretches all the way along the shore of the island, and the white snow spreads out on the ground and connects with the floating ice on the shore. The whole island, even the air has a cool smell. If Eden-Hudson grew up here, coupled with his parents who ignored him, there is a reasonable explanation for his iceberg temperament.

Follow the cobblestone path between the dry grass covered by the snow, all the way away from the coast and in. The silence on the island is somewhat empty, and occasionally the sound of the wind is mixed with the cry of seagulls, and there are also long echoes.

This seems to be a very small town. At the end of the line of sight, you can see the appearance of seven or eight families. There are no high-rise buildings. .

As you get closer to the building complex, you can see that there are more and more figures, and some are even more abnormal. It's just that the people in front of me, a piece of black crow, and other colors that occasionally show up, are just white shirts hidden under black jackets. This small island was originally cold enough, and the snow and ice in winter tightly wrapped the surrounding area, and now seeing the oppressive black color, it made people shudder for two. Evan Yibel lowered his head and looked at his clothes. Although they were also cold gray and brown, they still had some warmth.

Seeing the figures of Evan-Bell and Eden-Hudson walking by, the passers-by stopped, their expressions seemed suspicious, and then they left in a hurry. This is a bit strange. It is reasonable to say that there are only a few families on a small island, and everyone looks up and sees each other, so they must all know each other. But why doesn't everyone seem to know Eden-Hudson now? Is this the first time Eden-Hudson has been here? No, he was very skilled just now, so the only explanation is that Eden-Hudson lived here when he was a child and left when he grew up, so most people here don't know each other.

"Eden...?" An uncertain voice came over.

Evan Yibel raised his head and saw a white-haired gentleman, dressed in a white shirt and a black suit, without a trace, even his gray hair was neatly fitted. This reminds Evan Bell of the McJeffrey I saw a few days ago. However, McGeffrey's temperament is more refined and gentle, and the old man in front of him is more serious and old-fashioned, especially the tight curve of his chin, which makes people see that he is a very strict old man.

"grandfather

' Eden-Hudson nodded stiffly and politely, and shouted.

Evan Bell was a little surprised. He didn't expect the old man in front of him to be Eden Hudson's maternal grandfather. As for Eden-Hudson's unfamiliar address - he called each other "grandfather, grandfather" instead of "grandfather, grandfather" Evan-Bell is a little more clear. It seems that in Eden-Hudson's family, not only did his parents ignore him, but the relationship between the previous generation did not seem to be harmonious. It's just that I don't know if it's because there is no emotion, or because the family is a nobleman and the relationship is estranged. Looking at this small island, if all of them belong to Hudson's grandfather's family, then they are indeed a noble.

Eden-Hudson's grandfather Mason Thomas' expression changed slightly, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed, but he didn't know what to say, opened his mouth, closed it again, and finally said, "Come back to the room and wash up. , it's the same room as before." After speaking, he paused and added, "Your parents are late." Eden-Hudson nodded, carried his luggage and walked forward, without any thought for Eden. The intention of Wen-Bell and Mason-Thomas to introduce each other. Evan-Bell had to nod slightly with Mason-Thomas as a greeting, and then walked over behind Eden Hudson.

Walking into the three-story building in the middle, although there are not many people, but everyone's black and white color matching makes people feel very depressed. The architectural style is very simple It is not like a wealthy family with profound background, only some traces of the era can be seen from the decorations such as carpets and wallpapers. People in the room were coming and going, and Eden-Hudson didn't seem to recognize him when he saw him, but just passed him by. Evan-Bell vaguely guessed something, but didn't say it. The point was, he didn't know what Eden-Hudson planned to accompany him?

Eden-Hudson walked up to the second floor with ease, found the innermost room on the west side, and opened the door and walked in.

Evan-Bell was still looking at this room. It was in a simple black and white style, with a large room, a desk, and a wardrobe. There was nothing else, it was as simple as a cheap motel. Then I heard Eden-Hudson's voice, "Sorry for pulling you into this muddy water." Evan-Bell turned around and saw Eden-Hudson standing by the window, a cold figure, The figure is low, with a touch of sadness "My mother (nn) has passed away." Mother, which means grandma and grandmother in Swedish. This is much more intimate than the tough "grandfather" just now.

Looking back, Eden-Hudson still had a calm expression on his face, but there was a little more emotion flashing in those eyes, "I'm afraid I'll hit them, so I hope you can remind me at any time, don't let me destroy them. Mammy's funeral."

them? referring to who. ! .
