"Josh, what are we going to do now?"

Just as Josh was stunned, Geralt asked. It wasn't too difficult for him to survey a scene, but the problem was that he knew that there was something wrong with the baron, and he deliberately hid something, and then Geralt was so unhappy that he was going to solve the problem in the way he was best at.

What is Geralt's best approach?

That's what he uses his steel sword to force the baron to hide, so that he can accomplish the task more efficiently.

But now, with Josh by his side, he can also consider Josh's ability, compared to when he confused himself and then said a lot of words, Geralt still remembers it vividly.

"Actually, it's nothing to look at, there are traces of a fight in this house, right?"

"Sure, isn't that obvious?"

"Please, if I can see so many things, do I still need to ask you to deal with this with me?"

“......”

Well, Josh does have a point. But what gave Geralt a headache was that he now looked like he was going to find the owner of the amulet he had just picked up, which could be used for decoration or to prevent harassment from some low-level ghosts, and God knows who made it to deceive people.

"Looks like we need to make a run, doesn't it?"

"Actually, there's no need for that, go and call the baron in."

Geralt froze at Josh's words, but he quickly reacted.

Nodding, he walked straight outside, since Josh did this, it means that Josh has a way to solve the problem this time.

It was true that Josh could solve it, because he really didn't want to run to some witch doctor and have to help him find the lost sheep.

In particular, the witch doctor and the sheep seem to have some very 'special' relationship, which makes Josh a little unbearable.

He had no interest in seeing an upgraded version of the legendary 'harmony between man and animal', or watching the witch doctor perform his magic and communicate with the spirits, which was too much trouble for Josh to do.

"Do you know what happened to the Baroness and his daughter?" Watching Geralt walk out, Ciri suddenly asked.

"Of course you do, don't worry. There's nothing wrong with Philip, except for drinking too much and beating his wife that causes some bad things to happen, he's actually doing pretty good. Josh gave Ciri a reassuring look.

"So why did you go so far before? almost hanged him directly, and said that Wei Lun could change a lord. ”

"I approve of him very much, but don't you know what his men are like? And this guy is not an officially recognized baron, this is his self-styled, of course I didn't think about killing him, it was enough to give him some threats. ”

"Huh, the mage's threat?"

"Yes, don't you think he's yielding?"

Ciri really doesn't know what to say about Josh, and this kind of thing is actually taken for granted.

Of course, the Baron is fine, but what if you don't control it? Anyway, he is also the one who has helped him, and Josh's cooking really makes Ciri very dissatisfied.

But Ciri didn't have a chance to say anything, and the baron had already followed Geralt in.

At this time, the baron did not seem to be in good spirits, or he heard Geralt say that Josh, a mysterious magician, had let him in, and he couldn't help but think about how he had almost hanged himself.

"Is there anything I can do to help you, Master Mage?" For Josh, he was still a little more respectful.

"I think we already know what things are going to look like." Josh ignored the baron's attitude and said to himself.

"Oh..... Is it, then who took my wife and daughter ....."

"I don't know why your relationship is so bad, but it's not a good thing to hit a woman."

As Josh said this, the room went dark, and a transparent figure made of magic appeared in it.

What happens next is a family ethics drama that moves both Geralt and Ciri by watching the baron get drunk and beat his wife and cause a miscarriage.

No wonder they run away, so that's it!

At this moment, even Ciri, who had received help from the baron, couldn't help but look at the baron with a dangerous eye, what he did was indeed too hated! That's his own wife, and his own children!

"It turns out that you are hiding these things!" Geralt's words were still calm and low, but the coldness in his tone could be felt by anyone.

The baron did not reply, but stared at the scene in front of him with a blank expression, and only slowly sighed when everything had dissipated.

He never dreamed that this magician would be able to restore all the previous days of that night, and he knew that he might not be able to explain it.

"Alright Geralt, let's hear from His Excellency the Baron." Josh stops Geralt, who is about to come forward and ask him, there are some things that Philip himself needs to say.

"Is there anything unspeakable about you beating your wife?" Ciri couldn't help but ask at this time.

"Hey." The baron sighed, glanced at the three people in front of him, and finally locked his gaze on Josh's body, and finally nodded: "I know that I am not a good father and a good husband, but..... It may be too late to make amends. ”

The baron shook his head and continued, "I am a Temerian veteran who seized the local lord's castle, the crow's nest, and claimed to be the new ruler here. How ridiculous is not, but in such an age of war, anything ridiculous can happen. ”

After that, the Bloody Baron told all his own circumstances, which also gave Geralt and Ciri a deeper understanding of what kind of person this Baron really was.

Philip and his wife were very affectionate at first, and his wife often waited on a garden chair for the baron to return and bring him a flower.

The baron knew that his wife loved flowers, and even prepared a garden for his wife.

It was love at first sight between the baron and his wife, who went from a nobody to a superior officer, and he and his wife walked together.

It's a pity that there is no way to be so strong in the cruelty of the times in a beautiful love.

With the start of the Third Civil War, the baron went to the battlefield again, and this time the battle situation became more and more exciting, causing the baron to be unable to return home for a long time.

So he can only keep his wife alone to run the family, but unfortunately his wife met his childhood sweetheart at this time at this time.

It may be that he has not been able to see each other for a long time, and the baron has a bad habit of numbing himself with alcohol, and his wife cheats.

When the baron returned home elated by the calm of the war, he found that everything had changed, which made the baron break down from within.

The broken Baron Philip used the knife he had hung on his chest all the year round to chop the man into pieces in front of his wife, and he also took the pieces to feed the dogs!

Such a crazy and cruel approach made his wife go crazy, but she couldn't stop the baron's approach at all, and could only watch her current lover being smashed in front of her!

And this time, it was also the first time that the baron beat his wife, and it was the beginning of everything.

By then they already had a daughter, but they were probably too young to remember anything about it.

All she can remember is her mother's grief and her father's beating of her mother.

And the baron, because he had always loved his wife deeply, did not drive her away or kill her, and remained with him as before, hoping to restore their love.

But he was wrong, because his daughter had always followed her mother when he was away from home, and perhaps it was not the baron's fault that it all began, but it still did not fully excuse his later drunkenness, domestic violence, arbitrariness, and cruelty.

So his daughter hated him too, and the baron couldn't accept such a result, but his heart still wanted to redeem everything.

From then on, the baron needed alcohol to numb himself even more, not only because of the wounds left by the war, but also because of the constant tearing scars on his heart.

Eventually, everything broke out again, and after another argument, his wife miscarried.

After that, his wife and his daughter disappeared from his sight, but the baron did not want to lose face and was also worried about the safety of both of them, so he tried his best to find the two of them in order to save his face.

"If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't know what to do." The baron, who had told everything, seemed very calm now, and if it weren't for the slight redness in his eyes, he spoke of his sorrow.

"I see." Josh nodded, glanced at Ciri, who also had reddened eyes, and Geralt, who was still silent, and Josh could only speak: "This is indeed a tragedy, but I hope there is still room for redemption." ”

"I hope so, too, and I've been working in that direction."

"What do you do with the kids?"

"I took her.... Dumped in a dry well in the backyard..... God, I'm ......"

Before the baron could finish his words, Geralt's brow jumped: "If the aborted baby is not properly buried, it will become a corpse baby and go back to attack the people who once abandoned it." Your Excellency, it seems that you are in some trouble this time. ”

"Tell me what I need to do." The baron sighed and asked seriously, "I caused all this, then I will also make up for the wrong things I have done." ”

"Of course you need it, Your Excellency." Geralt nodded, "Later, we'll deal with it." Now, please tell me what happened after Ciri. ”8)
