Hatsuizumi received her share of the nun's robes, asked Sister Martha to write her a letter of introduction, and wanted to leave the convent.

As a result, after walking a few steps, she was pulled by someone, it was a young girl, who was also wrapped in a thick black robe, and her voice was still a little milky, her eyes were full of expectation, and she said to Chuquan: "Sister, are you from outside?" ”

"Yes."

Her eyes widened, and she said to Hatsuizumi pleadingly, "Sister, take me out, I want to see outside." The girl wanted to say something next, but was pulled by an older woman.

"Mommy......" The little girl winced a little, but her eyes were still fixed on Hatsuizumi.

The woman was an older woman, only in her early thirties, and her life in the monastery had taken a good toll on her anger, at least Hatsuizumi didn't read much positive sentiment on her face.

A mother who gave birth to a child in the monastery, and a child who never left the monastery. Which nobleman's secret is it? Hatsuizumi thought.

This child is not even a "girl", and after Hatsuizumi analyzes it, he discovers that this is a little boy who is dressed as a girl. At a time when this gender was still very vague, the thick nun dress concealed a qiē anomaly.

"You want to come with me?" Hatsuizumi asked, her face not showing much affection, as she looked at his mother.

She guessed that the child's mother had a reason to let him go with her.

Sure enough, hearing that Chuquan did not refuse, the woman's eyes lit up, and she said hesitantly, "You...... Would you like to leave here with this child? ”

Of course, Chuquan didn't move her kindness for no reason, without him, she couldn't find out who the child's father was, which was worth letting Chuquan bring this child.

"As long as he doesn't make trouble, bringing a child won't delay my affairs," Hatsuzumi said, "It's just that you gave me the child, and you have no plans to go out yourself?" ”

"No......" the woman's expression was a little frightened, and she smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid, if it were me, I wouldn't even be able to reach the town below." ”

"Alright then," Hatsuizumi nodded, "this kid...... What's his name? ”

"Southwark." The woman looked at her son reluctantly, as if she had something to say to him.

Seeing this, Hatsuizumi stepped aside and looked at the clear blue sky beyond the high wall.

After a while, they had finished speaking, and the woman put Southherk's hand on Hatsuizumi's hand, and after a moment of silence, Hatsuizumi asked a question: "Why do you believe me?" She looked up at the emaciated woman.

"Because I have no choice," replied the woman without hesitation, "this child is a boy, and this fact will be exposed sooner or later, and then the monastery will not continue to accept him, and he has not learned anything to survive in this convent, and I cannot get out, and you are his only straw." ”

"Although there is no ornamentation on your robe, the material is quite good, and it is a material that can only be used by the upper class, and those who claim to be the niece of Mother Martha are generally not too poor," the woman smiled, "and your steps and manners show that you are a rather calm man, and the promises made by such a person will not be broken lightly." ”

"Besides, Southwark is profitable."

Chu Quan couldn't help but look at her a few more times, she didn't expect that this woman had already considered Southherk's situation clearly, and she could see from Chu Quan's overly refreshing response that she had taken a fancy to this child, should it be said that it was a gambler's psychology? As long as the benefits outweigh the risks, they are willing to take risks.

However, Hatsuizumi thought indifferently that after the Devourer was taken out, these were just empty counts.

Although Southwark wanted to go outside to see, he just wanted to go out and see, but he didn't expect his mother to give himself up in these few words, although he had already understood that he was going to leave her through Guò's mother's previous words, but for a child, the concept of parting was still too vague.

He looked at his mother with red eyes, biting his lower lip but not crying, he was already quite strong as a child.

Hatsuizumi saw his reaction, and she still welcomed her companion with both hands if she didn't cause trouble.

What's more, as Southwark's mother put it, he was "profitable."

In the era when human life was as cheap as a mustard, Southherk's mother was not really worried about what this seemingly wealthy woman would do to Southherk, but she thought that Hatsuien would treat him well, of course, she didn't say anything about this speculation, but just watched Hatsuizumi pull Suthwark's figure from afar, and cried a little happily.

"I'll never see my mother again." Approaching the foot of the mountain, Southwark said timidly.

The woman holding his hand thought for a while and said, "When you grow up, I guess there will still be a chance." ”

"So...... What do you need me to do? ”

"Follow me, don't get into trouble, that's enough." Does Hatsuizumi really expect to raise this child into some flowers?

But the plan has changed...... How to get to the Holy City with a child?

"No, there's still something."

"How much do you remember about the classics?"

"Most of them have been memorized......"

That's good, at least in the pilgrimage procession, I hope that "pilgrimage with my brother", this statement will not seem too strange.

"Southwark, have you been wearing girls' clothes since you were a child?"

"Hmmm......"

He had to change his clothes after going down the mountain, and if no one knew that the child was a boy, the chances of detection would be much smaller.

It's all about who Suthwark's father is, his mother herself doesn't know who she gave birth to this child in a daze, and having a child out of wedlock will only be directly accused of uncleanness and be executed, but fortunately, although Martha is a nun who sees money, but seeing money is sometimes not a bad thing, at least no one cares if there is another person in this convent.

Since his father is the object of high authority to know, he can't even protect the mother and daughter...... Hatsuizumi felt that this matter was really suspicious.

After descending the mountain, the sun had sunk in the west, but fortunately the shop on the street had not yet closed, at least the clothing store was not closed, and Hatsuizumi asked the tailor to measure the size of Southherk, and agreed to pick up the goods two days later.

Then he went straight to the weapons shop, picked a handy sword, and returned to the hotel where he had stayed.

For Southwark, who had never left the monastery, this qiē was a novel experience, and he was silent when he was concerned about the first spring, but his eyes were rolling around.

After returning to the inn, he was also jumping around, even if he got into bed, he was rolling around, compared to the hard bed of the monastery, the bed in the hotel was incredibly soft, but fortunately he was only a child after all, and he fell asleep soon after being tired for a long time.

This finally gave Hatsuizumi time to act, and she grabbed the silver sword she had just picked up and climbed out of the window.
