"Take someone to work?"

Corneerys remembered the conditions that the Secretary of State had offered at the gates of the city, and she had forgotten about them, but she had thought that the refugees could survive in the inner city by working with their own hands in exchange for food, which was probably the only good thing among all the bad things.

The buzzing crowd outside lasted only for a short time, but the hurried running was louder, and everyone seemed to be in a hurry, even Vinson's father, the elderly transport driver, was called by name, hurriedly opened the curtain to say hello to Vincent, and went to work.

As soon as the parents left, the babies left behind in the camp began to cry so loudly that their voices were hoarse and no one cared for them.

Cornelies sat in the plank cubicle, vaguely feeling that none of this seemed to be what she had imagined.

"Can't breastfeeding women stay and take care of their babies?"

Wen Sen, who was sitting on the bed board with her, glanced at her when he heard this, let out a sneer from his chest, and said, "We are from the outer city, and it is already the kindness of the adults in the inner city to have a wooden board to shelter from the wind and rain in the inner city, where do you dare to ask for so much."

Corneerys heard the displeasure in his tone and asked, "What's wrong?" Wasn't it said before entering the city to exchange labor for food resources? No one objected to this condition at the time?"

"You really didn't grow up? Or have you lived in the inner city for a long time, and you will believe whatever people say?"

Vincent pointed outside, and said angrily, "As soon as I entered the inner city in the morning, I went to work, and my job was to help in the back kitchen and prepare lunch for the nobles."

Corneliese blinked, looking at him for some reason.

"Doesn't it sound normal, then let me tell you the abnormal place, the nobles in the inner city have a family of four, two of them are children, and the standard for a lunch is eighteen dishes, eight meat and eight vegetables with two soups, and in order to maintain a balanced nutrition and maintain their figure, they only ate a little of each dish, and some of them didn't even move."

"One of the refugees working with me was a mother whose three-year-old child had not eaten for a day and a night after the fall of the outer city yesterday, and she begged the steward for a little food for her to take back to feed her child, but the steward insisted on pouring all the food into the swill bucket."

"Even so, the mother waited for the housekeeper to leave and went to pick up food in the bucket of swill and secretly hid it to take it back, but who knew that she would have to search her body before going back to prevent us refugees from outside the city from stealing the property of the nobles."

"The pitiful little food in her arms was found, and this incident alarmed the nobleman, who poured all the discarded food into his guard's trough in front of all of us."

Vincent's chest heaved with anger, and the corners of his eyes turned red, "Guess what he said? He said that the leftovers of the people in the inner city would rather be fed to the cats and dogs, and that the mouths of the people in the outer city were not worthy of being contaminated."

"The woman was dragged away alone, and not long after she came back, her daughter was also taken away, and we tried to stop the soldiers, but they had guns, and we could only watch them take the child away, and we haven't seen their mother and daughter come back until now."

Vincent shook his head and said, "I guess I won't be able to come back......

Cornelies, listening to Vincent's narration, only felt a chill in her back, as a person of the inner city royal family, a person who was higher than the nobles, she had never thought about how precious the leftover food they ate on the table every day was for the people in the outer city and even in the wilderness.

She never knew that almost everyone in the inner city was so disgusted with the people of the outer city.

The ancestors of the Ninth Star spent hundreds of years pursuing the unification of the nation, and the towering city walls destroyed all this in only twenty years, and the forbidden place between the inner and outer cities was an insurmountable gap for the people of the outer city, even if they successfully forced the inner city to open the city gate to accept them, but the prejudice in people's hearts was not so easy to let go.

In the eyes of the people of the inner city, the only role of the people of the outer city should be to be their meat shield when the orcs attack, and there are many children like Cornelis who were born in the inner city, and they are not even aware of the existence of the outer city and the orcs.

This was a very ridiculous thing, Vincent remembered that before the orcs attacked, he was still there

When I went to school in the city, a sentence in the extracurricular book -

"Princes and generals, rather have a kind."

But here, people are born as if they were demarcated and cannot cross them again in their lifetime.

Isn't this a reversal of history, a regression of civilization?

He clenched his fists, stood up with a "whoosh", gritted his teeth, and said, "You're right, I'm going to find Shu Yungui too!" Only he can lead the people of the outer city to overthrow the rule of the inner city! Only he can set us free!"

Cornelys was pulled up by Vincent, the camp was much empty, they had to work twelve hours a day, only half a day off a month, and the food and water were served every three days, and the portions were pitiful.

From the time they entered the inner city, they had not received a single bite of food, and most of them were so hungry that they had to lie down in wooden cubicles to rest and conserve their strength for their next work.

Vincent led her down the muddy path to the camp walls.

It was also the first time Corneelis knew that there was such a filth in the inner city, there were no toilets in the camp, there was no place to wash, and they were not allowed to use the toilets in the homes of the nobles.

Most people pee in front of their homes, like Vincent, and if they are a little more particular, they go to the courtyard wall to solve the problem, but because the camp is so crowded, there is no difference between peeing here and peeing on the doorstep.

More than 50,000 people gathered in this small courtyard, and the smell by the courtyard wall was particularly unpleasant, so that the guards outside could not hold on, and they left their posts early.

There was also a dog cave here, which was discovered by Vincent's father, and Vincent didn't care about the smell and climbed out first, while Cornelies couldn't stand still, and frowned at the unknown liquid on the plant.

"Come here!"

Vincent whispered to her, "Those cops are still looking for you, they should be here in a moment!"

Before he could finish speaking, the police dog chased him all the way with his head down and sniffing the footprints, and barked wildly when he saw Cornelies.

"There! Chase after you!"

A large group of policemen rushed over, and Cornelies couldn't care about the stains on the ground, and hurriedly got out of the dog hole.

The policeman behind him swooped down, stuck his head into the dog hole with Cornelies's heel, and was about to crawl out, Vincent's eyes were quick, he picked up half a brick by the courtyard wall, and gave the policeman a head flower. Look at the book

"Why are you still stunned?! Run!"

Vincent pulled Cornelies's leg and ran away, but neither of them knew where Shu Yungui was taken to, running around was not only easy to expose the target, but also a waste of time, the two discussed it for a while, and decided to go back to the palace first, and find a way to sneak into the room where King Fern Laurener was under house arrest.

When it comes to getting in and out of the inner city without being seen, Corneliese has an absolute say.

She has been different from other girls since she was a child, climbing trees, climbing walls, tearing down roofs, and doing the same dangerous things, and often sneaking out of the palace to buy some snacks and small toys for her younger brothers and sisters that are not in the palace.

It is precisely because she has been like this since she was a child, that she has been missing for so long this time, and her mother has not reacted too violently.

She took Vincent to find a loose place under the walls of the palace, which she had dug by herself when she was a child, and dug for half a year, and was afraid that someone would find out and block it, so she made a disguise, not only planted a row of shrubs here to cover it, but also remembered to restore the stones every time she went in and out, pretending that nothing had happened.

Tossing for a day, when they entered the palace, the sky was already in the turn of day and night, the palace had not yet reached the time of the lights, but the guards had already begun to change guards, this was a good opportunity, taking advantage of the gap in the change of guards, she took Vincent to the corner of the palace wall in the shadows, like two gray-haired rats in the corner of the corner of the unnoticed.

The Council declared that the King was seriously ill and that since two years ago, he had not been summoned to see anyone without a call, and that all the affairs of the royal family were handled by the Council with full powers.

When she was not familiar with the world, Cornelius never brought this message

Taking it to heart, only occasionally hearing the conversation between her mother and her uncle can she feel a little different emotions from her mother's sigh and her uncle's righteous indignation, but she still does not take the helplessness and anger of her relatives to heart, and still acts as her carefree Highness Cornelies.

It wasn't until she climbed over the courtyard wall and saw her cousin because she was picking up a kite that she suddenly understood what the sighs and anger of her relatives were.

Every descendant of the Holy Queen will not allow anyone to trample on the people of the Ninth Star at will.

Maybe it's because of the blood in her body, or maybe it's because she has a more independent consciousness than ordinary girls since she was a child, after listening to her cousin's words, she not only didn't feel afraid, but even subconsciously thought that that was what she should do.

So she resolutely climbed over the inner city wall, and met Shu Yungui falling from the sky at the moment she landed.

This may be a wonderful fate, there seems to be a pair of invisible hands in the dark, pushing her to take that step and meet that person.

At this time, she returned to the courtyard wall where she had picked up kites, and looked up at the sky, where there were still stars in the sky.

"Is this it?"

Vincent squatted in the bushes and whispered, "I'll give you a lookout, you hurry in, and whistle if there's something!"

Cornelies nodded emphatically, and at this point, she was no longer the girl who had climbed over the wall alone.

Behind her are Shu Yungui, Wen Sen, and thousands of people of the Ninth Star.

She climbed up to the big banyan tree next to her, and glanced in, and a faint human figure could be seen behind the closed curtains, which was none other than her cousin—

The current monarch of the ninth star, Finn Lauren.
