Chapter 84 is coming, brother!
The reason why Dai Luoli chose to believe the letter was actually very simple.
Just like what was said in the letter, Dai Luoli really wanted to be admitted to Shrek Academy so that his mother could live a good life.
But despite such hard work, Dai Luoli knew clearly that his hope of being admitted to Shrek Academy was very slim.
In the Duke's Mansion, although Dai Luoli and his mother were not abused, they were obviously not treated very well.
Just like in the book, when someone asked Dai Yueheng how many sons Dai Hao had, Dai Yueheng directly told the other party that there were only two.
This shows that in Dai Yueheng's eyes, he does not regard the other two as brothers at all.
It is conceivable that everyone from Dai Yueheng to the Duchess probably holds the same opinion.
The person in charge of the Duke's Mansion has this attitude, and the people below will naturally follow suit. So except for Ben's recent treatment, Dai Luoli has not enjoyed any decent treatment in the Duke's Mansion.
After the news of Dai Huabin’s death reached the Duke’s Mansion not long ago, Dai Luoli no longer appeared in front of the Duchess casually.
After all, who knows whether the other party will vent his anger on other people because of Dai Huabin’s death.
Now that you have decided to go, you have to go quickly.
In the next few days, with the help of his mother, Dai Luoli prepared a carriage, some dry food and money and set off.
Nothing went wrong along the way, and Dai Luoli reached Shrek City smoothly.
However, when he got here, Dai Luoli was dumbfounded.
The letter only told me to come to Shrek City, but did not specify where in Shrek City I should go. Isn't this a mess?
At this moment, a young man in coarse linen clothes guarding the city gate was holding a portrait and staring at the passers-by.
When he saw Dai Luoli, his eyes lit up. After checking again and again to confirm that it was correct, the young man in coarse cloth walked over and saluted Dai Luoli.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Dai Luolidai?"
Dai Luoli's mind moved, and he nodded and responded: "I am Dai Luoli."
"Mr. Dai, I'm hired to wait for your arrival. Please follow me in." said the young man in coarse cloth.
Dai Luoli asked doubtfully: "Who hired you?"
"The employer said you'll be able to recognize it once you see it." It was obvious that the young man in coarse cloth had been reminded of this.
Dai Luoli had no other choice but to follow and take a look since they were already here.
Then, under the guidance of the young man in coarse cloth, Dai Luoli came to an ordinary bakery in Shrek City and waited.
Just when Dai Luoli was getting a little impatient, the door of the bakery opened again, and a black-haired boy in Shrek school uniform sat down opposite Dai Luoli with a smile on his face.
Dai Luoli looked at the other person, his eyes full of confusion.
"Hello, is this letter from you?"
Even though he had expected this, Huo Yuhao still felt a little uneasy when he saw that this guy didn't even recognize him at all.
Huo Yuhao put his hands under his chin and looked at Dai Luoli with a smile on his face: "Don't you know me?"
"I really... don't know you." After observing carefully a few more times, Dai Luoli said with difficulty.
Huo Yuhao said: "I am your brother."
"I'm your brother! Why are you taking advantage of others?" Dai Luoli retorted dissatisfiedly. You should just talk, why are you taking advantage of others right away?
How could I not know what my brothers are like?
Are you kidding me? "You little brat, you are really outrageous." Huo Yuhao was furious and slapped Dai Luoli on the back of his head.
"What are you doing?" Dai Luoli questioned Huo Yuhao, covering the back of his head.
The hit from Huo Yuhao didn’t hurt, but this behavior was undoubtedly annoying.
However, what Dai Luoli didn't expect was that it wasn't too late after the slap. Huo Yuhao put his arm around Dai Luoli's shoulders and said sinisterly:
"My name is Huo Yuhao, and my mother's name is Huo Yun'er. Do you think I am your brother?"
Dai Luoli was shocked when he heard this: "Who is Huo Yuhao?"
Snapped!
Huo Yuhao slapped himself on the forehead, this guy!
It seems that I have to use the most traditional method. Fortunately, I am well prepared.
Huo Yuhao took out a small bowl filled with water and ink silver liquid from the storage soul guide, dripped a drop of his blood into it, and then signaled Dai Luoli to do the same.
Water and ink-silver liquid mixed together can be used to identify relatives by blood drop. When Dai Luoli saw Huo Yuhao take out these two things, he gradually realized that the stranger in front of him might be telling the truth.
Dai Luoli glanced at Huo Yuhao and seeing his confident look, he cut his finger and dropped a drop of blood into it.
The blood dripped into it and did not spread out, but instead condensed into the shape of a blood-red gem.
Huo Yuhao gently shook the small bowl. If the two people had the same blood, the two drops of blood would merge together and become one drop of blood.
On the contrary, if not, the two drops of blood would be clearly separated in the small bowl and would never mix with each other.
Dai Luoli took a deep breath and looked at Huo Yuhao again. He saw that Huo Yuhao looked calm and didn't show any worry at all.
Dai Luoli quickly lowered his head and stared closely at the changes in the blood in the small bowl.
As the two drops of blood got closer and closer, Dai Luoli became so nervous that he could hardly breathe, and a guess slowly emerged in his mind.
Finally, when there was only one drop of fused blood left in the small bowl, Dai Luoli's eyes went blank and he was completely shocked.
“Do you believe it now?” Huo Yuhao said with a slight sigh.
"How is this possible?" Dai Luoli muttered to himself as he looked at the blood in the small bowl.
"The facts are right in front of us, how can it be impossible?" Huo Yuhao said.
Dai Luoli looked at Huo Yuhao with difficulty and said, "Then why is your last name Huo? Are you the one my mother had an affair with?"
Dai Luoli thought of a possibility, then quickly shook his head to drive the idea out of his mind.
"No way, it can't be like this."
“Of course it’s impossible!” Huo Yuhao rubbed Dai Luoli’s head vigorously and said, “You and I are half brothers from the same father, not from the same mother. What are you thinking?”
"Is that so? I was scared to death!" Dai Luoli let out a long sigh.
Dai Luoli looked at Huo Yuhao and said with a smile: "So you are my half brother, then - that's not right." The smile on Dai Luoli's face froze: "If you are really my half brother, then why haven't I seen you in the Duke's Mansion?"
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao sighed and said, "Then listen to me and tell you in detail."
Then Huo Yuhao told Dai Luoli his very beginnings bit by bit.
"My mother, like your mother, is that man's woman. The difference is that my mother is just his maid and grew up with him..."
