Kapitel 164: Trip to Colmar (2)

Finland did not answer. She did not want Jean to know that the man had taken the immortality potion that was supposed to be for Finland, but she also did not want to lie to him.

"You will like Aleksis... I named her after my father, Aleksis Makela. You searched for my father for years and then found his tracks in Colmar." Finally, Finland diverted the conversation to the purpose of their departure to Colmar. "You have always been very kind to me. Since you moved to Paris, you spent a lot of time looking for my father... as my birthday present 3 years ago, you took me to Colmar to see his grave..."

"Is that true?"

"We will meet Uncle Etienne... and you can hear from him yourself..."

Finally, the question that had been in Jean's mind for so long was answered. He had been wondering for the past few years why he often went to Colmar, and why he was there before he was shot.
