Nino's brain buzzed, and the memories that he had tried to avoid remembering for so many years instantly revived, and he pointed at the girl in front of him with a trembling voice.

"Lily...?"

Lily has really changed too much, after all, she was still a little girl when she was abducted, and it is normal for Nino to recognize it, but Nino has not changed much, after so many years, Lily can vaguely remember his appearance.

Nino pinched his face fiercely, making sure that what was in front of him was not an illusion, looking at the girl's reddened eyes, his thoughts seemed to return to that snowy night many years ago, and he became the helpless teenager back then.

"Lily....Lily..."

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! It's my brother's fault, it's all my fault, I'm sorry! ….”

hugged Lily, crying and apologizing constantly, Lily couldn't hold back her tears, she could no longer maintain the calm image she had at work, and her tears kept flowing down.

……

"Have you calmed down?"

Herman handed over two cups of hot drinks, and someone hurriedly called him over, thinking that something was wrong, but he saw the brother and sister crying on the street, and their eyes were swollen.

Of course, I'm also happy for Lily, but this Nino, but on the watch list drawn by the sea breeze, I have to say that the sea breeze's observation skills are quite proficient, and he squats in the registration office every day to see if there are any suspicious characters, if he is absolutely unable to do it.

"How have you spent all these years?"

Nino's voice was still a little choked, she couldn't imagine what happened to Lily after she was taken away, and quietly listened to Lily's account of her experiences over the years.

Of course, Lily was lucky, compared to many others who had the same experience, she was taken away not long after she suffered from coughing and asthma due to wind and snow and exertion, and the original buyer wanted a daughter, but he was worried that it was tuberculosis, so he didn't dare to ask for it.

The local snake head thought that he was still too young, and he raised him for a while, planning to wait for a few years to look better before deciding how to sell, and it didn't take long to meet Herman who was adopted as an adopted son by the Lane family, although Herman couldn't pay for Lily to ransom him, but he still didn't dare to act in the face of the Lane family.

When he heard that the Ryan family had fallen and Lily had been forcibly taken away and almost became the personal maid of a certain aristocratic family, Nino's fists clenched, and his heart was full of self-blame, why he hadn't tried to look for Lily again for so many years, and he felt that Lily was gone, and even avoided thinking of this pain.

Compared to Lily's years of displacement, her own pain is nothing compared to her endless life in the slums! Thinking about it, he looked at Herman, he could see the relationship between Lily and this young man, and also knew that Lily was safe and sound until now, all thanks to him.

So he made a decision to have a showdown with Herman.

After listening to Nino's narration, Herman had no joy or sorrow, but Lily was a little panicked, her long-lost brother was actually one of the people who attacked the lord's black hand a few days ago, what should she do?

"I know you may not forgive me for saying that, but I also want to atone for my sins as much as I can, and if I can, I want to meet the adult."

Nino's attitude was extremely sincere and respectful, and if nothing else, Leo was willing to be a cow and a horse for the other party when it came to the fact that Leo had saved his sister.

"I know, I'll tell ..... about this."

"Oh, I don't need to tell you, it seems that the teacher knows"

Herman pointed out the window, the Ancestral Eye floating silently.

…….

Nino met this city lord in person, although the purpose was completely opposite to the original, this lord who was praised by the whole city of Drifting Snow was so young, but Nino did not dare to slack off, and saluted respectfully.

The Ancestral Eye slowly drifted back to Leo's desk and came to rest on a small cushion, leaving Nino to wonder if the lord had known he was here from the beginning.

"I know everything, let's get straight to the point, now you are the top person in charge?"

"Yes, the new bishop from above has not yet been sent"

Leo is a little strange, there is no state religion in the Iron Country, but there will still be some large and small civil groups, but he has never heard of the Shadow Sect, and after asking questions, Nino nodded and expressed understanding.

"The Shadow Religion is just a general term, but in fact, because the beliefs of each region are different, we preach according to the local beliefs."

"Oh? What is the name of the Iron Country's faction? ”

"Black Dragon Cult"

"Poof.....

Leo just drank a sip of tea and sprayed it directly on the table, so he could only wipe it awkwardly and ask Nino not to care, and the expressions of Herman and Lily were also very weird, which made Nino a little puzzled.

"Uh... Do you think there is any problem?"

Leo waved his hand, and silently took out a black scale from his close-fitting pocket, which was the dragon scale of the sound, which had been experimented before, except for a few people who knew each other in the castle, everyone else would feel inexplicable coercion when they saw this dragon scale, which naturally included Nino.

Feeling the coercion of the dragon scales, Nino's expression also became strange, and then he was relieved.

"I finally understand why that fool is so obsessed with taking the life of an adult, I can't imagine that the rumors are true"

A sect that believes in the black dragon, and a lord who has been blessed by the black dragon, if the believers know about it, I am afraid that the position of the pope will be changed.

Leo put away the dragon scales and coughed softly, this matter was indeed a little embarrassing, but Nino's eyes lit up, and he knelt down directly.

"See the Pope"

“？？？”

"But I'm not..."

Nino interrupted Leo, a smile in his eyes.

"You are now"

Leo also understood, yes, the archbishop died violently, the new appointee has not yet arrived, and he is naturally the most suitable candidate for the Pope thanks to the blessing of the black dragon.

"But the believers will not have objections?"

Nino shook his head, except for some high-level people, ordinary believers didn't know the connection between the Black Dragon Holy Sect and the Shadow Sect at all, and now that the archbishop had died violently, and the second person in the second position had defected, the rest of the people had nothing to fear.

As one of the top folk sects in the Iron Country, the Black Dragon Holy Sect has a far-reaching influence, and if Leo can subdue this sect, not to mention benefiting the country and the people, it will also have great benefits for the future governance of the Northland.

Not to mention that the previous assassination did not bring any losses to himself, but also inexplicably upgraded the Eye of the Ancestors, the matter is completely the arbitrariness of the burp archbishop, the Black Dragon Holy Sect is indeed a great gift.

Although the Black Dragon Holy Sect does not have any significant notoriety in the territory of the Iron Country, and if there is a royal family, it will not be allowed to exist, but I am afraid that there is no less rumors and deception of people and money, but they cannot ignore these, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public.

"I've received your sincerity, but Drifting Snow City has always been disciplined"

"Shall I announce your verdict now?"

Nino swallowed and spitted, he explained everything he could, this city lord wouldn't unload the mill and kill the donkey, right? Lily was also a little nervous, and quietly squeezed Herman's hand, but Leo smiled slightly.

"Well..... five years of voluntary labor, no salary, taking care of food, well, that's all for the time being"

Nino couldn't see that this was letting him go, and immediately knelt on the ground to thank Leo for his tolerance.

"Oh, and, there's an add-on"

"Make amends to your sister and stay with her"

Tears welled up in their eyes.
