Chapter 237

"Camus, where do you want to go today?"

Bertoltiga, wearing casual clothes, stood at the door of Camus's house, put his hands to his mouth in the shape of a trumpet, and shouted towards the second floor of Camus's house.

"I don't want to go anywhere! Miss Bertotiga, don't you have your own job?"

The window of Camus' room on the second floor was pulled open, and a blue-haired boy stuck his head out from inside, clenching his fists and roaring.

"…What a homebody."

There was some resentment in Betotiga's eyes as he looked dimly at the young man who stuck his head out.

"Come out and play with me! I finally have a day off!"

Bertolucci spoke to Camus in a deliberately delicate and artificial tone.

Camus frowned fiercely.

The implication here is naturally that there is some disdain for this unreliable adult, but at the same time it also has some strange meaning.

Strange at this annoying guy's attitude today.

Although Bertoltiga was consciously approaching him - the perceptive Camus had already noticed this - he would never behave in such a persistent way.

What's more, Bertolucci gave Camus a very strange feeling today, as if he came to see him for the last time before making some decision.

Camus tilted his head slightly and retracted it.

"Wait for me, I'll be down right away!"

Camus shouted out the window while putting on his pants.

In any case, Bertuccia has been taking good care of me recently. If she wants to do something dangerous, I have the obligation to persuade her.

Camus's thinking is completely in line with the way adults think.

Or it is the way children think adults think, which is "correct."

"Let's go, where do you want to go?"

Camus was wearing his classic blue tights, and he was pushing his hair back as he walked out the door, revealing his eyes, which were considered soft among women.

But that gentle impression was immediately destroyed by the anger in Camus' eyes.

It was obvious that Camus still didn't want to go out with Bertolucci.

After all, this woman really took care of Camus as a child.

"Come with me to the commercial district. I want to buy something."

Camus had no intention of vetoing and turned around to lead the way towards the parking spot for the shared cars.

But Bettija didn't follow him immediately, but turned around and made a "yeah" gesture towards the intersection behind him.

"hurry up!"

At Camus' urging, Bertolucci turned around and trotted to Camus' side and followed him.

At the intersection where Bettiga had just made the "yes" gesture, a figure slowly emerged from the side.

If you look carefully, you can find that it is Camus' childhood sweetheart, Hanazono Rei!
Hua Zheng puffed up his cheeks, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he looked at Bertotiga's back.

Although he could clearly sense that Betotiga's mood was slightly different, he could not realize that there were other people who cared about him right next to him.

This can be regarded as a reflection of Camus's immaturity.

In the commercial district, Bettija really seemed to be shopping, asking questions like an ordinary girl, and wanting to buy anything she found that interested her.

Are you overthinking it?
Camus couldn't help but wonder this.

"Hey, if everything is ok, I'll go back."

Thinking that his worries were just unnecessary, Camus crossed his arms over his chest and spoke to Bertolucci.

"Wait a mininute!"

Bertolucci spoke to Camus without turning his head, lowering his head to carefully examine the items in the glass counter of a jewelry store.

After a careful look, Bertoltiga finally found a necklace and pointed at it and said to the cashier, "I want this, can I try it on?"

"I'm sorry, this necklace has been reserved."

The teller shook his head and rejected Betotiga's request, and at the same time, he changed from his initial carelessness to a business state.

"I see...Do you have the same necklace?"

Bertoltiga was not discouraged and spoke to the clerk in a tone that Camus thought was a bit shameless.

"Yes, but the price is more expensive than this. Is that okay?"

"Don't worry, I'm ready for today~"

Is Bertoltiga usually like this?
Although she was a slightly troublesome woman, Camus could sense a certain determination beneath Bertucci's sweet appearance.

Originally, Camus thought that was a determination to join the Titans, but after spending a long time together, he rejected this idea.

Otherwise, Camus, the spiritual Augus, would not have agreed to go on this trip with Bertolucci.

But no matter what, there was definitely something wrong with Bertoltiga's current look, which was like a girl encountering something she liked.

Camus frowned, leaning against the door of the jewelry store and carefully looking at Bertolucci's back.

“Here’s the merchandise you want to see.”

The teller brought a tray with the necklace on it and handed it to Betotiga.

"Well, thank you!"

Bertotiga reached out, picked up the necklace, and put it around his neck.

Only at this time did Camus see the necklace clearly.

Unlike the delicate shape of ordinary women's necklaces, this necklace is inlaid with huge diamonds.

In this era, diamonds are not expensive items, so no one would find it strange that Bertolucci picked up such a large diamond necklace.

After all, the Titans' salaries are indeed twice that of ordinary federal troops.

But Camus sensed something was wrong.

First, he noticed Bertolucci's nervousness and a little anger, and then Camus noticed the unnaturalness of Bertolucci's movements.

After Bertuccio put the necklace on her neck, her right hand fumbled with the largest diamond for a little while.

It was like something was pushed in with great force.

Camus calmly moved sideways a few steps, blocking the store door, then walked towards Bertolucci, blocking the mirror she was facing.

After this set of actions, Camus finally felt slightly relieved.

At this moment, Camus suddenly felt someone was looking at him.

When I looked up, I saw the teller looking at me and then gave me a friendly smile.

"Okay, I bought this necklace. Please pack it and send it to this location."

Bertolucci took off the necklace, handed it to the teller, paid quickly and briskly, then took Camus away and started the return journey.

"Betotiga, are you hiding something from me?"

Camus looked at his wrist being held by Bertolucci, and finally asked softly.

"What? Don't be so sensitive, boy. You won't be able to find friends this way..."

Bertoltiga turned his head, wanting to tease Camus as usual.

But her smile quickly faded.

Because Camus's gentle face reveals a determination that everyone can understand.

"Recently, the Titans discovered signs of large-scale Zeon remnant forces in Earth orbit, so they sent out troops to investigate and obtained..."

As the two looked at each other, the news reported by Betotiga began on the screen behind them.
