Locke carefully read the map on the table, then folded it and placed it on the table next to him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He grabbed his hair a little annoyedly, then sat down in his chair expressionlessly, looking at the entrance of the town hall in a daze.

Something about Bridget has already happened, there is no need to explain it, and it does not need to be explained. Although this is not his intention, it is true that he does not control it, which is also an undoubted fact.

It's over, it's over.

The asymmetry of life between elves and humans, between you and me, is a thread that cannot be ignored. Now, finally, I don't have to worry about this anymore.

Perhaps, it's time for me to reflect on why I made such a mistake. Is it like Norris said, I'm such a shameless person in my nature?

Locke leaned back in her chair, her eyes staring at the ceiling and her head went blank, and she always popped up the words she had just scolded herself.

What Norris said was too heavy for herself.

Alas.

At this moment, the greetings of the guards were heard outside, and Bridget came over.

Then, the sound of footsteps rushing in, Bridgit, dressed in judgment armor, stood in front of Locke in a heroic manner, and when she entered, she turned her head to look around.

"What about the elves?"

Locke remained leaning back in his chair, looking at the ceiling, not responding to her.

"What for!?" Bridget walked over and knocked him on the thigh, "You look like you've seen through life, I ask you what about elves?" ”

Locke lowered his head slightly, his eyes on her, and the heroic girl in front of him was looking at him with a little excitement.

Bridget was assigned by Locke to the Eva General Management Office today to help Shiloh with Eva's civil and political affairs, otherwise the two would have quarreled a long time ago.

"Gone."

Locke said two briefly.

"Why did you leave?" Bridget asked strangely, the excitement on her face disappeared, and then she said dissatisfied, "She just came back, how can she leave if she is not close to you?" ”

Locke ignored her, still looking at the ceiling.

Bridget reacted quickly, and she said with a smile, "You guys quarreled?" ”

A wave of boredom suddenly rose in Locke's heart, and he was very reluctant to talk about this topic now. But Bridget held on.

"Isn't it!" Bridget leaned in front of Locke, "Tell me!" ”

Locke let out a deep breath and stood up and walked towards the outside of the town hall.

Brigitte looked suspiciously behind her, and after Locke left, she asked the guards standing guard outside.

Locke came to the square of Eva, and he stood quietly in a corner looking at the endless flow of people, stunned, still thinking about the words that Norris scolded him.

He sighed deeply again, and walked up the unconscious town.

"Sell bread! Baguettes, buns, all kinds of bread! ”

In the distance, the girl who sells bread is still selling bread in this bustling area.

Still wearing the clean patched clothes.

She was always smiling, even when others rejected her.

Locke stared at it for a moment, and slowly the boredom disappeared. He suddenly felt that compared with the happy life of the citizens, his worries were completely negligible.

They are now their de facto managers, and they rely on themselves to live happily here. They believe in themselves and embrace themselves, isn't that what they want? Isn't that what your original goals are?

There is a saying that does not say; With great power comes great responsibility. Now is the time to focus more on rescuing more refugees and restoring Lordaeron's glory than on getting caught up in these children's relationships.

Thinking of this, Locke suddenly relaxed, and he smiled.

"Hey," Locke called to the bread girl, who turned around when she heard the shout.

"Oh, it's you," the girl patted her chest in relief, and immediately she asked expectantly, "Your Excellency, do you need fresh bread?" Just baked. ”

"No," Locke laughed and shook his head, "I don't need to. ”

The girl was disappointed for a moment, but she immediately smiled again and said, "I'm sorry for wasting your time." ”

"No, that's what I should have said." Locke smiled and pointed to the homeless people waiting on the corner looking for a job and said, "I don't need bread, but they do." ”

"Give them all your bread, and I will pay for all your bread."

The girl looked cautiously at Locke and asked, "My lord, I heard you right, did I?" You say, you asked me to give these breads to the refugees? Are you going to pay? ”

Locke smiled, he fumbled in his bag for a while, took out 1 silver coin and handed it to the girl.

"These bought all the bread in your basket, right? There is no need to look for more. ”

"Enough! That's enough! The girl said in surprise as she took the silver coin and placed it in the backpack she was carrying with her. Then, she bowed to Locke.

"I thank you on behalf of the refugees, and may the Light always protect you."

"My lord, let's come along!" The girl smiled and invited Locke, "To do this kind of thing, you can only feel the warmth if you participate in it yourself." ”

Locke wanted to stand and watch from a distance, but the girl invited him.

Locke was a little embarrassed, he really hadn't done this before.

"Come on, sir." The girl held out her hand again and invited him.

Looking at the bright smile on the girl's face, Locke couldn't bear to refuse.

But he didn't dare to take the girl's hand, he took the girl's basket of bread, and the girl's face showed obvious relief.

Locke carried the basket of bread and followed the girl towards the refugees around the corner.

The refugees who had gathered in the corner of the wall showed frightened expressions one by one when they saw Locke coming, and some women hugged their children tightly.

"Don't be afraid," cried the girl to the frightened refugees, and she pointed to Locke beside her, "this lord has bought all my bread to help you, he is a good man!" ”

The refugees didn't eat this, and they still looked at Locke warily.

The girl didn't try to explain, she turned and walked over to Locke's side, and lifted the cotton cloth from the basket.

She looked at the amount of bread in the basket and counted the refugees in the corner, her brow furrowed.

"These are not enough, it seems that we can only divide these breads."

The girl took out the black bread in the basket and tried to break it in half with her hands, but the strength of the black bread was something that a weak girl like her could solve?

Just when she was at a loss, Locke took the bread from her hand and broke the black bread into several pieces in a few clicks.

The girl looked in amazement, and she was surprised by the strength of Locke. You know, these breads have to be cut little by little with a knife. She hadn't seen anyone who could break it with her hands.

Then, without her prompting, Locke divided all the bread in the basket into sections.

"Alright, that's it." Locke took the basket in his hand and said to her, "You send it, I'll help you." ”

"Oooh," the girl came back to her senses, and she smiled embarrassedly at Locke, and then took out bread and handed it out to a child.

"Here, little friend." The girl bent down and handed a large piece of black bread in her hand to a little boy, who swallowed the saliva in his throat and did not dare to take it.

Soon, a woman came up and took the child away.

"This—" The girl looked at all this in front of her depressedly, and Locke sighed.

Recently, there have been some vicious cases in Eva.

For example, the case of the disappearance of the servant, which was discovered by the scouts. They were originally used to spy on other forces that had infiltrated the town of Eva.

The scouts discovered that a baronial nobleman who had settled in the town of Iva was always recruiting refugees as his servants in the squares of Iva and re-recruiting them every week or so. This caught the attention of the scouts, who began to investigate and discovered that the refugees had not been seen since they entered the nobles' estates.

When they disguised themselves as soldiers of the garrison and came to investigate. The baron said that the refugees had fled, which convinced the scouts.

Captain Lulbes, who was in a hurry about the recent social security of Eva, directly led people to surround it, and because of the identity of this suspect nobleman, Locke personally gave the order to arrest him.

After raiding the nobleman's house again, the result surprised everyone.

Inside the large house of the manor there is a basement with dense human skins underneath! The human skin was hung from the ceiling of the basement, and a huge summoning circle was painted with blood underneath the basement!

Clearly, this is an evil sacrificial ritual.

Under torture by the scouts, the baron confessed. Due to the invasion of the Scourge Legion, the Baron is caught in doubts about the Light. At the instigation of others, he began to convert to the faith, began to believe in the dark demons, and lured them to the manor and killed them as a tribute to the demons under the pretext of recruiting servants!

Soon the news spread in Iva, and the refugees no longer believed the nobles' information about recruiting servants, preferring to wait for the daily salvation of the Crusaders.

Compared with the vicious case above, the single female ** murder case has stopped for a while.

In this regard, Locke could only express his deep helplessness, and the reputation of the aristocracy was ruined in this way.

"I'm your lord Harvey, don't you still believe me?" Faced with the refugees' doubts, Locke had to explain out loud.

After Locke's repeated explanations, the refugees became suspicious of their beliefs, and they began to step forward and take the bread from the girl in an orderly manner.

It was getting late, and the refugees took the bread and left with great gratitude.

"I'll send you back," said Locke, looking at the sky, "lately, the case against the girl hasn't been settled. ”

"No, no, no! Your Lord! The girl hurriedly lowered her head and waved her hands, she carried the basket in one arm and bowed her head and said, "Please forgive me for offending my previous lord, I didn't know it was you!" ”

"I have received your kindness, and I am very familiar with the roads around here. Moreover, we are now very safe, with several patrols around us every day. The area where that case took place was far from where I lived. ”

"Thank you, my lord, for being a good nobleman. People will be glad to have such a noble lord as you. The girl bowed and saluted Locke again, and then hurried away with the basket on her shoulder.

Locke looked helplessly at the girl's distant back, "Am I so scary?" ”
