Chapter 74: A little clarity(1/2)
I never thought that I was living in Rajel's house, I never felt a sense of distance from others, and I never thought that all I lost was kindness to my enemies.
Before this, I had never thought that the current Wenti County and Emerald City were only separated by a mountain peak. This severe cold and this heavy snow were actually a world of difference.
Chang Yufeng looked at the people gathered on the street, even some familiar people were there.
Old Tom sat blankly next to the crowd, smoking quietly, the smoke on his body, like a cloud of sadness surrounding him. Under the bleakness, it contrasted with everyone, because everyone here was looking at him.
It's like experiencing a catastrophic godlessness, but it seems inevitable, like something that must be accepted to live in such a world.
That is death.
The blockade of the entire Wenti County main city was not that simple. I heard that a few demons still escaped, and the number of casualties is being calculated. This will take some time, but it is obvious that many people have not escaped.
The people standing here are all people who have passed the demonic energy test. In layman's terms, they are the selected human beings who can survive. Even the people who have been slightly injured are blocked at the edge of the teleportation array.
, the teleportation platform has been destroyed, and of course there are troops responsible for protecting those who are injured and not demonized to reach the designated location, but no one knows where they will be sent.
It's just that Chang Yufeng was surprised by his own thoughts, and actually paused and looked at these sad and frightened people. Many patrol teams and medical personnel were treating or investigating around them.
I don't know why, such an idea is so terrifying, but in contrast, it is so cold-blooded and ruthless.
He suddenly felt a little frightened.
He walked through the crowd, and the snow in the Emerald City was so thin that it fell on everyone's faces, but it was not necessarily cold.
Chang Yufeng lowered his head. The cotton jacket made him feel hot. His face and hands were red. After the heat in Emerald City, his hands actually felt a little itchy.
He couldn't scratch it, so he could only hold it and let go to let the blood flow smoothly. His hands couldn't stop sweating.
Normally, he only needs to activate a small amount of spiritual power to adjust the surrounding air, and even needs to adjust himself to a state, whether it is cold or hot, it will not be too extreme.
But now, whether it was sweat on his hands, itching, or redness and swelling, it all made him feel itchy.
Yes, he is the same as everyone here, how can he care about [those who are screened and can survive]? If he is infected at this time, he may be locked up in the main city of Princess Wenti, unable to
Escape.
Thinking about it this way, I feel a little scared.
"Child, I've been looking for you for a long time..." A hand held her, and she looked along the hand with a sapphire ring on the little finger. Lily Marlene seemed to have seen herself in the crowd, and she was chasing her.
.
"Have you found your parents?" Lily Marian wanted to squat in front of him and look at him, but that would be awkward in the crowd, so she slightly leaned her body to a place where no one was around.
"without……"
How should I answer this question... She probably doesn't recognize herself. Although she doesn't rule out the reason why her appearance has changed.
Now he has restored his black hair and cut it short himself. Although it looks a bit rough, it can still be seen that it is carefully trimmed. Of course it is not very short, but it is trimmed slightly to cover part of the forehead.
People can recognize him by his facial features. He put everything at home and left nothing behind.
"What are your parents' names? Let me check it for you..." Lily Marian took out a roster from her white robe. She looked at Chang Yufeng, as if she really wanted to help, and Chang Yu
Feng was a little awkward and didn't know how to answer her.
"My name is... Hua Yinglan." Chang Yufeng blurted out a name.
"Ah... people from the Empire..." Lily Marian looked at Chang Yufeng in shock.
"Um……"
"Then there's no other way. Then... I might not be able to help you..." Lily Marlene put the book back as if she was thinking casually: "Ah... I still thought I could help you, but
, you surprised me quite a bit, and you didn’t make any noise."
She glanced at the children. Because their parents were isolated, they could only be looked after by patrols. Their crying made people feel frightened.
For a child like this, he had no expression after seeing such a tragic scene. Instead, he was so calm, which really surprised Lily Marlene.
She was also a little confused as to why the child from the empire in front of her was here, and the pause just now made her think that this child was a little shy.
"The verification of imperial personnel requires the approval of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there is nothing I can do to help." Lilima Lian looked at Chang Yufeng with some sadness.
"It's okay, sister, I can just go look for it myself." Chang Yufeng answered in a milky voice with narrowed eyes.
He didn't know whether he should leave now or let the conversation continue. Although he had no place he wanted to go, he shouldn't be nostalgic for this place.
"How should I put it... I'm really sorry that I couldn't help you..." Lily Marlene apologized a little.
Children of the Empire who are not accompanied by their parents will be taken to concentration camps. It is a place that scares all children, not only because of the difference between the Principality and the Empire, but also because the Principality will not take the initiative to raise abandoned children for the Empire.
, they will be adopted or even sold.
Maybe Chang Yufeng didn't think of this, but Lily Marlene had already thought of it.
"No need to be sorry." Chang Yufeng continued to smile. No woman would refuse a cutie with dimples smiling at her.
Lily Marian put her hand on Chang Yufeng's shoulder, and gently leaned into his ear and said to him: "You have to be careful, don't say that you are from the empire. The investigation is very strict now, so just say whatever you want.
Just give me a name. You must not say that you are from the empire. You will be arrested and spanked. Do you understand?"
Chang Yufeng looked at her, surprised that she would tell him this, but in Lili Marian's view, his surprise should be because she told him something, and it was a grateful surprise.
"Thank you..." Chang Yufeng was a little shocked that he had forgotten this.
It seems that the situation is not friendly.
Combined with the situation of the Chulong Conference, this situation may be just one of the incentives for being exploited.
The empire and the principality are at odds with each other, and the tension in their relationship may have begun to affect normal exchanges.
"You're welcome, I didn't help you either. I thought I could have a good vacation after coming back from school. Now it seems that I'm really exhausted." Lily Marlene sighed and stood up.
"Then I'll go first..." Chang Yufeng waved gently like Lily Marlene, and took out his red hands from his coat and waved them gently, like a red flag.
"Wow...what happened to your hand..." Lily Marlene looked at his hand.
"It's okay... I'll leave first..." Chang Yufeng quickly retracted his hands.
"Ah...is it cold in Wen Ti County? It's really pitiful. I have some ointment here. You can use it." Lily Marlene clicked her hand with her wand, and a small box appeared in her hand.
superior.
She handed the ointment to Chang Yufeng.
Chang Yufeng was a little pushy and just looked at the small box.
She grabbed Chang Yufeng's hand from her robe and placed the small box in Chang Yufeng's hand.
"I'm going to help others, but you have to be careful if you are alone." Lily Marlene stood up and waved to Chang Yufeng.
Chang Yufeng could only watch her leave.
I was overwhelmed by the sudden concern.
Well, Lily Marlene still has to accept her kindness. In fact, it was not very sudden. On top of the white horse, Lily Marlene also muttered to herself with concern. Chang Yufeng answered her in a babbling manner.
.
She came from Downton Institute of Science and Technology in Rastare in order to carry out the annual social practice, which is the main evaluation indicator of Downton Institute of Technology and accounts for a large part. This year she met Wen Tijun
In this situation, she joined the rescue team in Wenti County, but the rescue team responsible for transporting her team had all been killed by the citizens of Wenti County who were sick with demonic energy. She escaped by chance, and saw a squatting man on the way.
Chang Yufeng was shivering under the tree. Although Chang Yufeng explained that he was not afraid, Lily Marian still felt that such a small child would definitely burp from the cold. She could not ignore it and rescued him.
He rushed to the Emerald City and immediately joined the rescue team.
Seeing Chang Yufeng struggling among the refugees again, she still couldn't bear it, so she took the initiative to help him find his parents.
But...it doesn't seem to be what he expected. This black-haired boy is from the empire, and the Wenti County member handbook she distributed doesn't seem to be of any help.
Chang Yufeng accepted her kindness not only because he had no direction, but also because he had an inexplicable similarity with this kind of person.
Chang Yufeng didn't know how to refuse her.
Watching her leave, he put the small box into his pocket.
Some people say that there are very few girls who are still pure and kind. Generally, when they reach the age of Lily Marlene, kindness will be a very introverted thing, not only because they are not deeply involved in the world, but also because of the influence of their own family education.
It has been subtle. Before she came into contact with other bad people, everything about her was kind-hearted.
No matter what, Lily Marlene reminded herself of the current situation. A child from the empire should not appear here, and if caught, he would be thrown into a concentration camp.
are subject to trafficking.
You must be more careful.
If this happens, I have no way to resolve it now.
Although he is not at the mercy of others, he will definitely not be able to turn the sky upside down.
There are no crowds, just a lifeless place.
Everyone gathered from Wen Ti County seemed to be shocked, even his mentor Old Tom.
He was smoking in a remote place without any sound, like a silent piece of wood.
Chang Yufeng looked at him and sat blankly on the steps.
Are these the people who live in the entire main city of Princess Wenti? It is inevitable that they are too few... It is definitely not just this few.
What is the situation now? What decision did the Ministry of Internal Affairs make? What led to the current situation? If there is a third person present in Hatulin, will this matter be related to them?
To be continued...
