Finally I met a child who was not crying. He quickly picked up the child and asked: "Kid, I am not a monster. Do you still remember where your home is?"
The child looked at Roger carefully for a while, and after confirming that he would not eat him, he replied: "My home is in Twilight Town, and so are the other children. We all know him!"
Roger was also very surprised after hearing what this child said. [ ] He didn't expect that the police team of Twilight Town would be so bold as to transport children from this town out for sale.
However, Roger still didn't understand what the child meant when he said "a monster that eats children." Judging from the conversations between these men, they clearly called children goods and had nothing to do with monsters. Not to mention the entire Toulonzo
There are no creatures in the world that only feed on children, which makes Roger even more aware that the whole thing must not be that simple.
It's a pity that the child is too young. Under such circumstances, it is already good to tell where he lives without crying or making a fuss. It is unrealistic to ask more questions from him. So Roger quickly paid attention
He transferred his power to the guys who were knocked unconscious and decided to ask these people for their confessions.
Roger winked at Chris and together with the knight dragged several tied men to the woods on the roadside. He expected that the next situation would be bloody, so he didn't want to do it in front of the children.
thing.
Roger and others were not heavy-handed, so many men had already woken up at this time. The few people dragged into the woods by Roger did not know what they would face. Many of them were trembling and scared.
I dare not let out my breath.
Facing the pitiful-looking human trafficker, Roger didn't feel any pity in his heart. These guys were all like this. They were all vicious when facing the weak, but they pretended to be pitiful when they encountered stronger opponents.
Not worthy of sympathy.
Without saying a word, Roger dragged one of them far away from the sight of the others, and then asked in a low voice with a straight face: "What's your name?"
Frightened by Roger's ferocious look, the man stammered: "Jo...Joad."
"Hello, Joad!" Roger smiled at the other person, and then punched the guy and knocked him unconscious.
However, Roger was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he stayed there for a while before returning to the others and said coldly: "Qiao De has said everything. Now I will give you a chance. If anyone tells the truth,
I will let him live, you come first!"
The first person Roger designated was a guy with a rough face, who was never easy to deal with. As expected, this guy's attitude was very arrogant. As soon as he opened his mouth, he said arrogantly: "I am a member of the security team of Twilight Town. How dare you?"
Aren't you afraid of going to jail for attacking the police?"
"Wrong answer!" Roger waited patiently for the guy to finish, said with a smile, and then chopped off his head with a sword.
Seeing Roger beheading his companion with a smile on his face, everyone else became even more frightened. No one dared to look at him again, for fear that it would bring disaster to themselves.
Roger acted as if nothing was wrong, pointing the bloody sword at the next man and saying, "Say it!"
The man glanced at the accomplices beside him, rolled his eyes, and said to Roger sincerely: "We are really members of the Twilight Town police force. These children... are sacrifices to a nearby monster. That monster specializes in eating
Children, we have to send ten children every year, otherwise the monsters will come and destroy our town..."
What this guy said is very close to that child. However, this kind of nonsense can only deceive foolish men and women in rural towns, but it cannot deceive people like Roger who have received modern education. What's more, even the Lord of the Castle
I have also confirmed that there are no monsters in the world of Toulonzo that specifically feed on children, so this guy is obviously lying.
"Wrong again!" Roger cut off the second head without hesitation, then pointed at a random person and said, "You tell me!"
The guy who was called looked at Roger fearfully, but there was no clue from his face. He just felt that his heart was about to jump out of his mouth. I saw the two people in front of me being beheaded by Roger, and then I thought about him.
As I said just now, Qiao De has already been recruited. This guy's psychological defense finally collapsed and he told everything he knew.
The fact is exactly as Roger guessed. These people smuggled the children out of Twilight Town and planned to take them to big cities to sell them. According to the laws of the kingdom, child trafficking is a serious crime, so these guys are just deceiving the residents of Twilight Town.
The children were sold. And these people used the magical beast that specialized in eating children as an excuse to deceive the townspeople into believing that they had to hand over the children in exchange for the peace of the town.
Although this guy's confession was relatively credible, Roger still felt that there was something unreasonable, and then asked: "Since there are monsters around the town, why don't you report it to the lord? Those families who were selected to hand over their children,
Haven’t you ever thought about leaving here and living somewhere else?”
"This matter was originally instigated by Mr. Billy, the administrator of the town. He also raised the monster that occasionally appears near the town." Now that he had spoken, the man no longer hesitated and simply told everything he knew.
"He never reported this incident to the lord, but he claimed to the residents of the town that the monster was so powerful that even the lord could not deal with it, so he had to sacrifice ten children to the monster every year in order to maintain the peace of the town.
.”
Chris had been listening attentively to the man's confession. At this time, he couldn't help but interjected and asked: "Those families who want to hand over their children are fools. Won't they choose to leave here and live somewhere else?"
Roger, who had a frosty look on his face, gritted his teeth and said: "Of course there were families like this in the beginning, but after they left the town, our police officers would catch up and kill them all. Then they would deliberately kill them all.
Make the body mutilated and claim it was done by a monster. After doing this several times, no one will dare to escape the town casually."
"You despicable bastards!" Hearing this, Chris couldn't bear it any longer. He cursed and drew his sword and slashed at the man.
However, Roger stopped Chris in time and prevented him from attacking the guy who was scared to death. Facing the knight's doubtful eyes, Roger just said lightly: "We don't need to take action to deal with these scum, just hand them over."
Let the people of Twilight Town deal with it."
Although Roger said this in a calm tone, the security team members were all frightened after hearing this. They all knew in their hearts how the angry townspeople would treat them after this matter was exposed.
Under Roger's command, everyone quickly escorted the men and took the children back to Twilight Town. Although it was still early in the morning when Roger led everyone back to Twilight Town, it quickly caused a sensation in the town.
