273. Passerby

Hevin was lying comfortably on the sofa. In front of him were the chocolate cakes and freshly brewed black tea that Hola had specially brought for him. The fireplace not far away exuded steady and continuous bursts of warmth.

The man flips through the Wharton Daily News in his hand.

He had to admire the wisdom liberated by the stabilization of human social structure. A small newspaper took into account multiple functions including entertainment, politics, guiding public opinion, enlightening people's wisdom, etc.

The huge black letters will represent events that will change the world structure one by one.

Is Prince George Pendragon's decision to step into the House of Lords and the Grand Regent of the Order justified?

Alec, the former Bishop of Firth, was promoted to Cardinal by His Holiness the Pope.

The leader of the Cat Circus announced that the next stop on the tour will be Wharton!

Cardinal Alec and Prince George signed a private agreement. The Church of Original Fire is about to invade the borders of England? Where will the future of the people go?

The Lord Chancellor's daughter Enid has become the honorary vice-captain of the White Dragon Knights. Young people's fun? Rising knight star? Political deal? We invited political experts from Aaron to analyze this matter with you.

Please also pay attention to the next five issues of Wharton Daily.

Hewen put down the newspaper:

"Ha La, is anyone bullying you at school?"

Ha La smiled sweetly, showing two cute canine teeth:

"Hewen, no one bullies me, everyone is gentle."

Hewen smiled and said:

"If someone bullies my little Hela, you must not think about anything for me. The most important thing is to protect yourself from being bullied first. If necessary, don't get hurt even if the abnormality is exposed."

Ha La pretended to have a ferocious expression, like a kitten showing its teeth and claws:

"If someone bullies me, I will eat him."

Hevin patted Ha La on the head:

"Little Hola turns into a big lion to scare away bad guys.

"By the way, what do you play with your friends at school?"

Ha La clapped her fingers and said:

"Antotica and I usually talk about good things, and Silla talks to me about some interesting things about Wharton City. By the way, Antotica wants to ask me to go to a tea party with her. I wonder if I want to go.

…”

Hewen asked:

"Who else is participating?"

"They are all friends of Antotika. One of them is in my class and I have a good relationship with her. There are two others I don't know, but Antotika said they are all people with the same interests as her."

Ha La thought for a moment and added, "They are all girls."

Hewen nodded happily:

"If you want to go, go ahead. Anyway, there's usually nothing to do. It would be nice to meet more people."

Hewen took out a small lady's wallet from his arms, and first put five hundred pounds in it. Then after thinking about it, he opened the dark layer and stuffed fifty large-denomination banknotes with a face value of one hundred.

stop.

Hevin handed the wallet to Ha La:

"You usually spend money to play with your friends. These five hundred yuan are your pocket money, and the five thousand yuan in it are for emergencies. If you don't have enough, come to me.

"But remember, don't spend your emergency money casually. If you want anything, just come to me directly."

Hala suddenly discovered that Hevin seemed not so sensitive to the amount of small amounts of money.

Through insinuations during this period of his life in Wharton, Holla discovered that even for steel workers, the most common occupation in Wharton, a political center, the monthly salary was between twelve and thirty-five pounds.

For every ten pounds of profit a worker creates, not even one pound comes into his hands.

The remaining money is left in the hands of capitalists and aristocrats through layers of exploitation, but even such a wealthy aristocracy does not give their children much pocket money.

For example, Antotika's father is the powerful leader of a steel-making company, and his monthly pocket money is only 80 pounds, while her brother only has 50 pounds.

As the son of a duke, Ciro's monthly pocket money is only one hundred pounds because his family does not run many businesses.

Hara held this bulging little wallet to tell everyone that her father was rich.

By the way, Hevin is now claiming to be Hala's adoptive father. In fact, based on everything he has done, he has also shouldered the responsibilities of a father.

Hevin didn't say this before, mostly because Ha La's last so-called "father" was still alive, and he claimed to be Ha La's uncle, and he was also afraid that Ha La would have some psychological shadow on Fa Fa.

But since Hal told Garrett that Hevin was her father and bit his throat herself, all these problems no longer existed.

Ha La touched the small purse:

"By the way, Hevin, Jimmy seems to recognize me. At least he keeps looking in my direction recently. Is there any trouble?"

Hewen said:

"According to Jimmy's common sense, it has only been less than a year since you and he separated. There is no way to confirm that you who are now a young girl are the same little girl back then.

"And isn't there going to be a parent-teacher meeting? From Jimmy's perspective, the Hevin and I he knew before are completely different people, so when he sees me, even if he has doubts in his heart, most of them will be dispelled.

"

Ha La nodded:

"Haven, are you really not going to let Jimmy know who we are?"

Hewen asked:

"Why do you ask that? Do you want me to tell them?"

Ha La shook her head repeatedly:

"No, but I'm just curious. Hevin, you lived with them in a small town for many years, right? Don't you miss them?"

Hewen sighed:

"Jimmy? Jimmy is a child with good nature, but his nature is not very good. After experiencing the death of his father, I don't know what he will become, but I don't want to interfere in his life."

Ha La quietly lowered her head and looked at her toes:

"What about sister Nelly?"

Hewen said:

"Nellie? Nellie is a very kind person by nature. Although she is a bit stupid, she is still a very good child. However, it is difficult for me to say whether she will adapt to this place.

"Her mother Rebecca was once a prominent nobleman. The favorable living conditions will corrode people's hearts. A strong and fearless heart will melt, and a kind and righteous heart will sink.

"It's like Rebecca was able to hold the ax in Morningside, but she should no longer be able to gain its recognition now.

"It's hard to say how Nelly will become. Maybe she will stick to what is most important in her heart, or maybe she will become like most people.

"But having said that, no matter what Rebecca, Jimmy, or Nellie become, it has nothing to do with me. I am just a passerby in their lives. I actually did not leave any deep impact on them.

"I gave Jimmy a chance to escape reality, I gave Rebecca an ax, and I gave Nellie several misunderstandings, but in the end, they were just a few acquaintances who lived in the same town as me.

That’s all.”

Hewen looked to the southwest, which was the direction of Chenxi Town:
