Even if this Iron-Hand Pinol has nothing to do with the Pope, he must know some secrets. After all, he is considered a core member of the entire inner city.

After determining the entry point, Xiwei chatted with Xinkui about other things for a while.

Maybe it was because she hadn't communicated with anyone for a long time, but Xinkui almost always answered all questions.

Not only did she tell Xi Wei many rumors about the Demon City, but she also told everything about her own life experience without any reservation.

This devil's city turned out exactly as Xiwei expected.

Not all the people who live here are heinous people, there are also some who can't live outside and have to hide in the Devil's City.

Just like Xinkui.

Half-elves are even more miserable than elves in the human kingdom, and once discovered by other elves in the Emerald Forest, they will usually be executed directly.

Because half-elves are a naked shame to pure-blood elves, and the stain must be eradicated.

but.

These refugees like Xinkui don't live well in the Devil's City.

Or he was killed in the outer city.

Or they could just make ends meet by doing menial jobs in the inner city.

Xinkui was brought in by her mother.

It was an elegant and beautiful pure-blood elf mage who was driven out of the Emerald Forest because she fell in love with a human knight.

However, after being kicked out.

She still has not lived the happy pastoral life she hoped for.

She was abandoned by the human knight.

Because the knight's ultimate goal is to obtain the spring water of the fountain of life through her, and use this spring water to save his true lover.

And Xinkui's mother was a tool that could be used and thrown away from beginning to end. She even gave birth to two children for this human knight.

That is Xinkui and her sister Xinzhi.

Xinkui's mother died in the Dream City and was made into a corpse puppet by the necromancer Quinn of the Black Skull Guild.

Now only Xinkui and Xinzhi are left to depend on each other.

Xinkui gets up at four or five o'clock every morning. The first thing she does is scrub the body of her seriously ill sister. Then she prepares simple food and feeds it little by little to her sister Xinzhi, who can barely move her head.

At about seven o'clock in the morning, Xinkui will come to the hotel run by the half-dragon to clean.

Every day the half-dragon will give her one soul point as salary.

After finishing all this work, she would wait at the gate of the inner city, or wander around the city to see if she could get some errand work.

If she wants to cure her sister, she needs more soul points to buy the priest's dispel scroll.

But now, although she has successfully received a job as a guide and is about to collect the soul points needed for the dispersion technique, she may be killed by her colleagues in a few days.

[Sir, I hope you can hire me for two more days. I can do anything. I just want to cure my sister]

[Compared with my sister, I am already a cripple who cannot speak. I will die when I die, but my sister’s disease can be cured by dispelling the scroll]

[In this way, she can still live healthily]

The half-elf girl kneeling in front of her had a sad look on her face, her eyes full of prayer.

Xiwei looked at Xinkui.

His face was dirty and covered with black and gray, and his hair was messy and flea-like. His face was sallow, and his body was thin.

But after all, he is half elf.

You can vaguely see the once delicate and lovely appearance, but the pearl is covered in dust.

But that's not what Xiwei cares about.

He was more interested in the half-elf girl's sketching and geometric abilities, but this was on the premise that Xinkui didn't know magic.

If Xinkui can use magic, then combined with her talents, she will play an important role in various aspects such as battlefield, intelligence, and government affairs.

"I can hire you for a few more days, but you have to help me properly these days. I need information about Ironhand Pinol."

"Including his appearance, strength, and where he usually lives. If you do well, I will also give you some soul points as a reward."

【Thank you for your gift】

Xinkui held the note high with her little hands full of frostbite, and knelt on the ground with her head buried deep in it. A few crystal tears wet the ground.

Xiwei waved his hand and said nothing.

He did not tell Xinkui that he could cure Xinzhi's illness, because the girl in front of him still needed to be examined, not only for her ability, but also for her character.

"You can take action now. I'll give you three days to get what I want."

…

At night, a petite figure appeared near the garbage dump in the inner city.

The garbage generated by the entire inner city is piled here, forming a high ruin.

And around the ruins.

Rows of simple and shabby sheds made of stone bricks and rotten wood were built.

The most inconspicuous one among them is Xinkui's home in the inner city of Devil's City.

Although these ruins have a strong smell, many of the usable things in them can feed these people who are struggling at the bottom of the inner city of the Devil's City.

Xinkui circled the ruins several times, scanning the surroundings with her peripheral vision. After making sure that no suspicious person was following her, she quickly got into the shabby shed in the corner.

"Ahh..."

Xinkui subconsciously wanted to say that she was back, but when she opened her mouth, the words came out in harsh and harsh words. Only then did she remember that she could no longer speak.

A trace of loneliness flashed in Xinkui's eyes, but she quickly cheered up again.

What does it matter if a dying person can speak or not?

"Sister...sister?"

You couldn't see your fingers in the broken shed. You could only vaguely see a small floor mat in the corner, and on the floor mat, there was a vague and petite figure lying.

Xinkui closed the curtain on the broken shed, sealing the entire shed, and then skillfully took out a candle and a box of matches from under a pile of broken pieces.

She lit the candle, and the dim yellow light brought a touch of warmth, dispelling the cold darkness, and she was finally able to see something.

"Sister~, welcome, welcome back."

A weak voice came from the straw mat.

It was a pale half-elf girl, but it seemed that only her eyes could move, and she was lying upright on the straw mat.

Xinkui came to her sister's side and gently pinched her sister's face. The deathly gray in her eyes burned with sparks at this moment, turning into tenderness and love.

"Ahh..."

Xinkui gestured twice.

My sister is illiterate, so she can only express herself in this crude way.

Then, she took out the crystal that stored soul points and showed it to her sister.

There are already 23 soul points in it. With seven more points, you can buy a dispel scroll to cure your sister.

"Sister, you..."

Xinzhi looked at Xinkui distressedly, but she was paralyzed and couldn't move at all, so she could only express her sadness with her eyes.

She lay on this small straw mat, and all she knew about the outside world came from her sister's words.

My sister said that she has a good job outside. Not only can she pay taxes, but she can also save some soul points to treat her own illness.

Xinzhi thought so too at first.

Until one day, my sister came back crying.

She lost the ability to speak.

From that day on, Xinzhi knew

My sister did not have such an easy life as she said.

On the contrary, she lived a very hard and tired life.

She knows these soul points, some of which were obtained by her sister with her own tongue.

What are the remaining ones used for?
