I have a food city [infrastructure] Section 280
Because of the episode just now, when Elizabeth and John arrived at the station, it was almost time for the train to depart.
The two of them began to run around the station, daring to the carriage as fast as they could.
*
"Miss Emily, are you scared? This is the latest milk tea to hit the market today, and you-"
"I'm sick of it! Leave me alone! Get the hell out of here! "Emily is about to get married, but because of the rush of time, many things are not ready, although the Lord of Stana treats Emily as a commodity in exchange for money, but her value determines the benefits that can be exchanged, so in terms of dowry, he is very willing to pay for it.
Lanceville's Starfire Road is the most famous equipment street, where countless gems, magic crystals, and equipment ...... Especially the various accessories that can best show the beauty of the girl.
Stana gives Emily a large sum of money to buy her own things, and Emily knows very well that this is the price her father will pay for her to buy her future.
She accepted this fate a long time ago.
Although she is a high-ranking little princess in the social circle, she is not really a job, and all the good things her father treats her are because she has a good face and good talent, and she can contribute to the family.
She had been instilled with this idea since she was sensible, so she was neither upset nor upset when it happened as expected.
She naturally accepted it all and happily took the money to buy everything for herself.
During her time in Lansvelly, she stayed in a luxurious room in the best "Prince of the Sea" theme hotel, and the price of a day cost 5,000 gold coins, which is money that many people can't earn in a lifetime.
Everything she bought was casually placed on the table, on the bed, and on the carpet, exuding an air of luxury and beauty.
But Emily felt that she was not as happy as she imagined.
She loves gems, gold coins, magic crystals, and beautiful dresses...... There's nothing wrong with that.
Who in the world wouldn't love these things?!
She got everything that everyone else had so easily, what else could she not be happy about?
Look at Elizabeth's grizzled face! What's the use of her trying!
Decade? Twenty years? A hundred years?
How long will she have to struggle to live a life similar to hers?
The goal she is working hard for is not enough to be her starting point!
"Yes, that's right, that's it!" Emily looked at herself in the mirror, who was as beautiful as a jewel in the world, and tried to make a smile.
But the heart was as quiet as dead.
There is no despair, anger and hatred, and there is no joy and anticipation of becoming a bride.
"I'm not—"
"Don't struggle!"
A deliberately muffled voice came from behind, and Emily recognized the other at once.
It's Elizabeth.
Elizabeth didn't hide what she meant, time was pressing, and although there was a perfect way to disguise, she didn't have all the equipment in her hands, and it was not good to miss this opportunity.
So she was very bold.
"Emily, I'm sorry, I know you hate me right now and can't say for sure things like 'you'll be grateful to me later,' but, I'm sorry. If I don't, I'll probably never be able to level up again. ”
Elizabeth gagged her, tied her hands and feet, and dragged her into her suitcase, not daring to use her magic for fear of leaving traces of magic that could be easily traced.
Elizabeth didn't dare to look Emily in the eye and didn't explain too much, just stuffed her into a suitcase, and then left in a waiter's clothes pretending to be room service pushing the cleaning cart.
I was lucky not to run into anyone along the way, and it went incredibly well.
Emily curled up in her suitcase, the small one could only hold her, not even turn over.
But in the darkness and crowding, Emily has no intention of resisting.
“……”
Emily knew that the rope used to bind her hands and feet was just an ordinary strip of cloth, and although she was a weak spellcaster, she also had 13 strength attributes, and if she used force, she could break free.
What about after you break free?
Are you going to send Elizabeth to jail?
But if you are taken away like this......
What is Elizabeth trying to do?! Where is she going to take her? What is the purpose?
Emily's mind is very messy, on the one hand, the extravagant life after marriage, and on the other hand, the miserable hostage life after Elizabeth moves, she can only nibble on black bread.
Eventually, she fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she was lying in a completely unfamiliar room, where a symphony was being sung.
It's the house that's leaking.
It was snowing heavily, and the eaves were covered with thick snow, and the walls were warmed by a charcoal fire burning in the house, so that the snow turned into water, leaked through the holes everywhere, and was caught by the broken bowls, making all kinds of noises.
"Where is this?" Emily slept for a long time and woke up a little dizzy.
"Oops! My—" She paused suddenly, as she found that her spatial gear was in her hand, and that it was neatly organized with full-level storage.
But in the next second, her face still turned iron-blue.
Her dress was dirty.
The hut was filled with braziers and thermal insulation magic, but the civil structure of the hut remained the same, and when it rained on a rainy day, it was a disaster!
It's not raining, but because the mud walls are warm and the snow melts away, the house is sparsely covered with muddy water.
Emily was placed in the only spot without many holes, and the broken bowl circled around her, preventing the muddy water from staining her clothes directly, but the muddy water that dripped into the bowl still stained her dress.
"Elizabeth?! Elizabeth! Where are you?! Damn it! What a place here! ”
Emily's eyes were red with rage, and the proud noble lady had never suffered like this!
She was about to settle accounts with Elizabeth, but as soon as she pushed the door open, she was stunned by what she saw.
A group of children in thin clothes hide under the eaves and snuggle together to keep warm.
Clothes? Is it clothing? The clothes they wore were so torn and dirty that Emily couldn't tell what they were made of.
"Why are you so unhygienic!" Emily took two steps back in disgust, "Oh, don't pass on the smell to me!" ”
As she retreated, the children were also moving their bodies carefully, as if trying to pull away a little, but their bodies were already frozen, and they couldn't control their bodies smoothly for a long time.
"Hurry up, don't stay here, don't you want to go to Building 5 first?"
In the midst of the stalemate, Elizabeth returned.
She was all embarrassed, covered in mud and sand, dirty as if pulled out of a swamp, only her face was barely clean.
"Who are you? What about the Elizabeth?! Emily obviously didn't recognize the person in front of her as Elizabeth, because she could feel that the other party's level was higher than her own, and Elizabeth's shouting voice seemed a little lacking.
Elizabeth was too tired to have time to explain to Emily.
"Hurry up and take a hand, aren't you a water mage? Get some more snow, they're frozen, and they're going to die! ”
They probably came here to warm up from the warmth of the walls, but how much heat can the walls have? Compared to such a bad snowy day, that little bit of warmth is not worth mentioning!
As soon as Emily heard that someone was going to die in front of her, she instantly had a terrifying feeling of numbness in her hair, and she didn't care who the other party was, what she wanted the snow to do, and quickly took out her staff to gather piles of snow to her side.
When you are frozen, you can't bake it directly, and it's easy to get hurt when it's cold or hot.
Rubbing the body with snow is to use friction to gradually restore the circulation of blood in the body, warming up from the inside out.
Elizabeth expertly rubbed their bodies and then gave them a diluted elixir of life.
Seeing that their faces had turned from pale to rosy, Elizabeth breathed a sigh of relief.
"Where's your clothes? Didn't I send you thick cotton clothes before? ”
There are too many people in Xinrong territory, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are given priority to the distribution of materials, and the people who come here to warm up are all children, and the children's material distribution priority is the highest, and everyone has a set of suits that can resist the cold, from close-fitting autumn clothes and pants to thick sweaters and cotton jackets and pants that block the wind, and even socks and shoes.
It stands to reason that none of these children will be frozen like this, but the fact is that the group of children in front of them did not even have a pair of shoes, and their dark feet could not see the original color of the skin, but it was obvious that ten toes were exposed.
When Elizabeth rubbed their bodies with snow just now, she found out that these children were ...... All of them are girls.
"Where's your family?" Her expression could even be called stern, "You should know who I am, the person in charge of this territory is my brother now, if my question can't be answered properly, do you understand what a serious consequence it is?" ”
"In, where!" The little girls immediately pointed to the room in the distance.
Elizabeth drove them like sheep: "Go, take me to them!" ”
Not all parents are born to love their children.
Teenage girls are valuable and are property.
Teenage boys are already a workforce who can earn money at home to relieve stress, and they are important family members.
A boy of a few years old can become a laborer with support, and he is a boy.
A girl at a few years old has become something that can be given up at the first time.
The cotton garment factory in Lanceville was working on a tight schedule, but it was an impossible task to get everyone at once!
Pregnant women, children, the elderly, young women, young men, this is the order in which the supplies are distributed.
In a family, some people have supplies and some people don't, that's a normal thing.
Everyone has a share of the big pot of rice, but cotton clothes are not necessarily.
Although snatching is prohibited, what if it is given "voluntarily"?
Elizabeth was furious! Whether these girls are "volunteering" or "being volunteered", there is a fire burning in her heart!
They are children with families!
But why is it worse than those orphans?
Elizabeth thought of her brother again, obviously a child with a father, but the so-called father ruined the first half of his life, if it weren't for Lord Philos and Boss Bank, my brother would have been tortured in that hell forever until he died!
Elizabeth admits that she is selfish, that she is not motivated by justice and mercy, but by a wave of unwillingness and anger.
Like taking Emily away, she was obviously not sure what Emily was thinking, but like her father, took her away against her will.
She is unwilling, unwilling to be so proud Emily to become what she once was.
She is now also unwilling, unwilling to let these girls "voluntarily" dedicate themselves.
"Wait, wait for me!"
