"There's only one last one left." After cleanly wiping off the neck of the person in front of her, Xiao Yueluo took out a cloth towel from her waist and slowly wiped the blood stains on the dagger.

Speaking of which, Xiao Yueluo didn't have the habit of carrying a dagger, but yesterday Ronald gave her a dagger after hearing that her big sword was taken and reforged, saying that it was not peaceful for her to hold it for self-defense recently, although she herself didn't think she needed it, but "in line with the "Rita-style" principle of "not taking it for nothing", so she still accepted it very decisively, but she didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

"Did that guy know I'm going to be attacked today?" casually threw the used cloth towel next to the corpse, and at the same time, a trace of doubt flashed on Xiao Yueluo's face, "Forget it, hurry up and finish it and call it a day." ”

glanced at the moonlight that had risen at some point, and then Xiao Yueluo closed her eyes and thought for a moment the general direction of the leading man's escape just now: "It should be...... Well? How can it be a pauper's kiln? ”

His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his eyes were staring at the exit of the deep alley. In fact, when Xiao Yueluo was killing the third person before, because of a momentary negligence, the person released a signal flare, so she was also prepared to solve everyone here at once, but she didn't expect that the leading man was very alert, and as soon as he noticed that something was wrong, he directly left everyone and ran away, and the direction of running was still ......

Glancing at the three corpses stacked together, Xiao Yueluo ran directly in the direction of the slum kiln, fortunately, her position was not far from there, and at her speed it was only a matter of a few minutes, but ......

"I hope it's too late......"

Five minutes later, the pauper's kiln

"I didn't expect you to run away before, but now I will see you here."

With a hint of madness in his hoarse voice, Blaise leaned his back against the wall and looked at the body that was swaying towards him with a look of fear: "You, you, don't come here......"

"As long as I bring you back, as long as I bring you back, I believe that Lord Earl will be able to forgive me......"

The leading man's hand slowly stretched out towards Blaitze, and the laughter that came out from time to time made the already somewhat terrifying atmosphere even more eerie, and at this time Blaise also opened his eyes wide, only the tears on his face that had already dried showed the fact that the girl had shed tears.

"No, don't ......"

"Poof!"

The scream sounded along with the sound of the sword sinking into his body, followed by blood splattering, and Blaise, who felt the warm liquid on his face at the same time, was also suddenly silenced, and then his eyes slowly opened to reflect the scene of the leader falling to the ground.

"Dead ......"

Blaise sat on the ground with his mouth covered, his eyes never taking his eyes off the man in charge.

"Blaize, are you alright?"

Obviously, it was just a plain tone, and even the voice was not very familiar to each other for a short time, but at this time, it made Blaise feel unusually cordial. Especially when his gaze touched the cold cheek that was so strange and familiar, the tears that should have been dry in Blaze's eyes poured out again: "Big ...... Sister ......"

"Alas, it seems that she must have suffered a lot of sins...... Xiao Yueluo sighed helplessly, how could she not hear the choking in that voice? It's just that she understands that no matter how much she says now, it's not much use, so she ......

"Can you still go?"

Just like when they first met, Xiao Yueluo rubbed the girl's hair comfortingly, but this time the corners of her mouth couldn't be hooked no matter what.

"I ...... Big sister, my legs ......"

Her gaze moved towards the place where Blaise had said, and although the light was dim, Xiao Yueluo still had a rough look at the injury on her calf. The remaining blood had clotted into clumps, but the wound was like a twisted centipede that took over her entire vision.

"Looks like that's all it takes......"

"Eh, big sister?"

The sudden weightlessness of his body made Blaise subconsciously close his eyes and wrap around Xiao Yueluo's neck, but the next second he slowly opened his eyes.

"Bear with me first, I'll take you to treatment."

Xiao Yueluo said expressionlessly while hugging Blaitze.

"That...... That ......"

"What's wrong? Is the wound painful? The movement under her feet froze slightly, and then Xiao Yueluo looked down at Blaitze, and her dark eyes flashed with an imperceptible chill.

"Hmmm......"

Blaise nodded, and the hesitation on his face completely fell into Xiao Yueluo's eyes: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I don't like to beat around the bush." ”

"That...... That's ......" Blaize's eyelids drooped slightly, but he quickly moved his gaze back to Xiao Yueluo's face, the only difference was the firmness in his eyes as if he had figured out something, "That big sister, that person just now...... Doesn't it matter if you just leave it there? Yes...... No, I'm not worried about that person, I just feel ...... If someone dies, the big sister will be in big trouble......"

It seemed that he had lingering palpitations about the coldness of that moment just now, so in the end, Blaize's speed of speech was not only slow, but even his voice gave people a sense of caution, especially the kind of tentative inquiry coupled with a somewhat evasive winken gaze, like a wounded little animal, which suddenly aroused Xiao Yueluo's desire to protect.

"It doesn't matter, someone will naturally deal with those when the time comes."

Xiao Yueluo's cheeks were slightly red, especially in Blaize's unaware admiring gaze, but fortunately it wasn't daytime, so she didn't have to care about being noticed by other people now, and the other people naturally included the villain in her arms.

"I see."

As if sensing the change in the aura around Xiao Yueluo, Blaise simply shrank his head and stopped talking, but when he passed by Bruce's room, he subconsciously looked inside.

"Want to go in?"

Because she had just gone in, she naturally knew what kind of scene it was inside, and when she thought of the man who insisted on living for the sake of her daughter, Xiao Yueluo couldn't help but be moved. She is not a virgin, so naturally it is impossible for there to be a flood of compassion, but she is also not a demon, and she still has the sympathy that humans should have, at least when something like this happens, she will still help them as much as possible.

"I ......"

"Let's go and see, it's the last time I'll see him."

Xiao Yueluo sighed slightly, and without waiting for Blaise to say anything, she carried her into the room. And because it was close to the window, the room was much brighter than the previous aisle, so the two of them could see the expression on Bruce's face very clearly.

"Your father, he...... There should still be some unwillingness...... "Unlike the horror of ordinary people when they are killed, Bruce's eyes can be said to be full of hatred, and Xiao Yueluo can naturally distinguish this.

"Is it someone you know......

Xiao Yueluo muttered in a low voice, and then her eyes moved from Bruce's face to Bryce: there was no imaginary crying, not even half a drop of tears that should have appeared in her imagination, and the girl at this time just sat quietly beside Bruce, bidding farewell to this relative who had been with her for many years in her own unique way.

Maybe this scene will make some people feel a little cold-blooded and unfilial, but Xiao Yueluo understands: some grief cannot be expressed in words and actions, even if it can't be seen on the surface, but the pain in the heart will not be reduced by half a point. Just like Bryce now, the silence and desolation that emanates from her body alone is enough to make people feel the pain in her heart at this time.

"Big sister, let's go......"

I don't know how long it took for Xiao Yueluo to hear Bryce's voice again, but the voice sounded a little hoarse at this time.

"Yes, but wait a minute."

Saying that, Xiao Yueluo walked directly to Bryce's side and knelt down, and Bryce didn't speak anymore with interest, just watched her quietly wipe her palm on Bruce's face, and then closed her eyes and drew a cross not far from her chest, while quickly muttering something in her mouth: "...... May the dead rest in peace......"

"Big sister...... "Thank you......

Bryce's eyes turned red again, and although she could only hear the last sentence, she knew what was being read from Xiao Yueluo's mouth just now: the blessing, the thing that the nuns used to pray for the deceased.

As I have said before, almost all the people on this continent are religious, even Bryce, who is a pauper, is no exception, but due to economic and identity reasons, it is naturally impossible for her to invite the nuns and bishops of the church to help Bruce with the prayer ceremony, and this regret is now realized because of Xiao Yueluo. Despite its simplicity, the scene before him was more precious to Bryce than any other ceremony.

"Alright, now we can go."

After covering Bruce's face with something, Dawn leaves the Slum Kiln with Bryce. And this time, because of various reasons such as time and safety, Xiao Yueluo directly chose to go to the blacksmith shop to rest.

Fortunately, Beard gave Xiao Yueluo the key to the blacksmith shop before, otherwise she would have a headache tonight. After all, it was a killing, and with the blood stains on his body and this bloody smell, if he went to the hotel in a grand manner, I am afraid that she and Bryce would not have to wait until the next day to attract those patrols in the royal capital.

"Big sister, am I causing you trouble?"

On the second floor of the blacksmith's shop, Bryce looked at the girl sitting on the windowsill with some apprehension, and the arrogant back always gave her the illusion that she might leave at any moment.

"What's the trouble?" Xiao Yueluo turned her head, because she had taken a shower and changed her clothes, Bryce at this time was no longer as dirty as before. Although she looked a little timid, Xiao Yueluo knew that this was only affected by the previous incident, and if it was a while, I am afraid that no one would be able to see Bryce's identity as a pauper.

"Big sister, I'm ......"

A moment of looking at each other, a moment of excitement, and then the next second Bryce lowered his head again, and the futile pause of the voice Even if there was no follow-up, Xiao Yueluo could guess a rough idea.
