(8.13 2nd Update)

The day before crossing the border, according to the agreement, it was not an elegant place to visit an old friend. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Drunkards and gamblers, almost as a feature of the street, shuttle back and forth.

Bypassing the foul-smelling market, there is a filthy house, and the idle people are contemptuous of our presence.

"Bell, where is this? Do you have any friends who belong to us? ”

"Well, she once invited me to visit, and this is the shortcut provided by Siqi, but it is not the end."

Across the slums, there is a crack-like gap that allows people to wander.

Fresh air was whistling outside, and when I walked out, it was already a suburb outside the city, a farmstead with smoke rising.

"Wow, it's unbelievable that the sky is so close to two colors."

"Well, the people who are hoarding inside are looking forward to the life of the city, but they are suppressing their mood, and the tightening mood is no longer suitable for this vast world."

Passing by the farm, it is harvest season, and the courtyard is neatly dried for the winter.

The simple fences made of wooden strips are hung with house signs, making the tedious search easy.

"No. 19, this is here, there seems to be no one?"

Xiao Yi looked at the space inside, as if there was no human being, but it was not deserted.

"Who is the big sister, my mother said that I can't open the door to strangers, they will kidnap me!"

Children who are lying on the ground playing are ignored by the field of vision, and there will be an illusion of a phantom.

"It's really a front-end education, I'm probably your mother's friend, well, it seems so."

"Huh? Mom said she had very few friends, and recently heard about a lovely earl, and the earl was the name? ”

"Poof, the Earl is a title, he's the Earl, can you let us in?"

Xiao Yi, who laughed out loud, squatted down and stroked the child's head, even if it was a familiar relationship.

"No, I'm not sure of your identity, if you're bad guys, you'll scare my younger siblings."

The child's palm, supporting the fragile wooden fence, seemed to be able to blow it down with a gust of wind.

"Do you have a lot of younger siblings? You seem to be young too! ”

"Well, in fact, we are all abandoned babies adopted by our mothers, and she works very hard, which is the most glorious."

I pulled out the candy I had prepared in my pocket and handed it to the child, who was still hesitating and refusing the temptation.

The awkward situation is a waste of waiting, and I even suspect that it is the wrong address.

"Count, how can you be interested in coming to such a desolate place?"

There was no footsteps approaching, and I realized that there was no omission, and it was indeed Anne.

"Phew, this rejection is bothering me, so is it a strange hospitality?"

Anne was carrying the ripe corn, which was a golden color that did not match my impression in the slightest.

"Well, since it's a cute boy, you must treat it specially, Your Royal Highness, see you again!"

Walking into the courtyard, it is actually more desolate, with almost no extra furnishings, let alone handicrafts.

"Yes, in fact, I am the new housekeeper of the Earl's Court, and the identity of the princess has faded!"

"Wow, the Earl is very cunning, and he can only deceive such a beautiful princess, I can only admire!"

Anne's words are all provocative, and there is hardly a slight admiration.

The child ran into the house, probably shy because of the proximity, calling out to his companion, and soon occupied a small space, with a dozen children, playing in the welcoming ceremony.

"This kind of life is inevitably too tight, in fact, with your past, money is easy!"

"Well, as a killer's daily life, sometimes you can have a luxurious commission on a single duty, but that kind of violent teaching material, I really can't pass on it to these children, it may be a shadow."

Anne's eyes were pouring out tenderness, and she had completely sunk into temporary family affection.

"Are these children? Don't tell me it's the harvest of your kidnapping! ”

"The Count is still very humorous, in fact, they are abandoned babies I picked up at the garbage dump, most of them are poor families, and they have no strength to raise them, so they can only be placed in small cardboard boxes, waiting for God's salvation."

"That's almost giving up on life, why did you suddenly think to do this kind of work, fallen angel!"

Perhaps it is this title that makes me reflect on the past, that there are many people I have slaughtered, and there are innocent lives, even if it is a comforting atonement. After discovering the cuteness of the child, he completely gave up the old story and started a new chapter. ”

Anne was boiling tea, and the smell was wafting away, and she was no longer Anne.

Xiao Yi held the candy, which was the easiest and most effective way to buy, and soon formed a team with the children, and the kitten also eliminated its laziness, showing off its flexible movements.

"Her Royal Highness the princess is also very involved, the earl is visiting today, I'm afraid the outside world has changed!"

"Well, the owner of this land is the country of Cologne, and the document has been in force yesterday."

"Oh? Is it colonization? Or is it some kind of union? ”

"It's a special kind of colonization, even if it's a kind of integration, it can still maintain the equality of the original people."

"Yes, otherwise we will also suffer, the Count is always able to create magic, and it has not exceeded my expectations."

Anne lifted the boiling hot water and poured it into the unadorned teacup, very simply.

"It's a bit shabby to entertain the Earl in this way, but that's life!"

"I don't mind, in fact, putting in the heart is the best ingredient, and the occasional light taste is not bad."

In fact, all clear teas are bitter, and the leaves that have been squeezed dry are the last glycol.

"Are you going to spend the winter like this? I'm afraid it's hard to hold on to this bit of food! ”

"Well, I still have the savings I have saved, the salvation in the event of a dead end, but I don't want to use it."

"Oh? Is it because of the filth? Actually, that's your labor too, albeit in an extreme way. ”

"Yes, I can't seem to forgive the past, and I'm on the verge of collapse."

Anne was a little nervous, probably because of a long leisure life, and there were always lingering nightmares.

"That's God's irony, you're expecting a kind of relief, so you're afraid. But it doesn't matter, I think that kind of deceptive thinking will soon be annihilated, God, not so solemn. ”

"Huh? Is the earl saying that the bondage will be lifted? ”

"Well, that's an extreme idea created by someone in the first place, and within the scope of the country of Cologne, that's ridiculous!"

Anne also has no absolute beliefs, perhaps she is more concerned about the views of the outside world.

"Also, you've contributed to the process, and I should give you feedback."

"If it's money, I'm going to veto, I have enough resources."

"For a businessman, even if he is rich and rivals the country, he is stingy, how about extorting a sum of money?"

"Blackmail? Does the Count mean by the power of others? Then I can think about it a little. ”

Anne's instantly changed attitude, the thrill of punishing the extravagant group, is about to be recovered!

"In the old Cologne country, various social groups were established, like orphanages, and it has become a habit to force rich merchants to give their strength, and I hope it can continue here."

I pulled out a handprint of the contract from my pocket and handed it to Anne to browse.

"What is this, Count? Could it be a nearby ......?"

Anne looked at the farmstead with a sense of intimacy, and blinked her eyes.

"That's right, Siqi has already used the extorted money to buy this area, and an orphanage will be built here."

"An orphanage? That's a lot of money, and I can't afford it, unlike you groups. ”

Anne's slight complaint was actually asking for the next step.

"That's the folded paper, and the one in the back is even more exciting, Madam Dean."

"Wow, that's a long number, I've never seen so much money."

"This is the gratuitous sponsorship of some people, although there is an element of flattery, but the result cannot be refuted."

Anne took the contract in her arms, and it was probably the best gift of all.

"However, the Earl's intelligence agency is very powerful, and can find out what needs are there."

"That's natural, because I'm selling coffins nearby!"

Truss, who walked into the courtyard, also completed the coverage of the last area, with a smug look, business should be good.

"He's the weird uncle from the other day, Mom, it's him!"

"Hehe, I said it was my brother, this level gap makes me very embarrassed, but I have no regrets about being able to meet a fallen angel."

"Hmph, Truss, who dances with death, can be so vain and hypocritical!"

Anne sees through Truss's identity, and she is also satirizing a certain hypocrisy.

"Yes, that's what he is? But the angel's mouth is very vicious and gentle! ”

Plant also appeared, without the smell of alcohol, and it looked like he was breaking free from the spell.

"A first-class swordsmith, why are you here?"

"Not only them, but also us, want to witness the beauty of the fallen angels!"

Fili and Omiritz also appeared, an arrangement that had never been expected.

"Then, the last ...... is missing"

"Since this is already the case, you can't hide anymore, that will be criticized!"

Si Qi also approached slowly, so he gathered people.

It's time to go home. (To be continued.) )
