"If you are talking about the place where those little mutes live, this is it." A refugee, also in ragged clothes, nodded and bowed to an armored knight.
Behind the knight, there was a lost middle-aged aunt, who was the former manager of the Blue Wave Bay Bakery.
The door of the dilapidated shed was pushed open by the armored knight, his fierce eyes wandering around, but there was nothing inside.
"Didn't you say they are like this? Where are the people?" The armored knight looked at the refugees coldly.
The refugee also looked at it in confusion. He had obviously seen the two little bugs come back before, so why did they suddenly disappear? The knight's eyes became darker and darker, sweat began to ooze from the refugee's head, and his eyes rolled.
"Are you kidding me?" the armored knight snorted.
The refugee's already tense heartstrings were suddenly broken, and he fell to his knees in fright.
"No, no, I really saw them coming back... By the way, I remembered it! The vicious peasant woman who lived here before seemed to have dug a cellar in the backyard. Maybe they were hiding in the cellar!" The refugees wanted to increase the number of people.
He kept nodding to his own degree of conviction: "Yes, it must be in the cellar!"
"A peasant woman lived here before?" The armored knight repeated the doubts raised by the refugees, while bypassing the gate and walking towards the backyard mentioned by the refugees.
"That's right, that vicious peasant woman is cunning and harsh, and she looks very tall, very much like..." When the refugee said this, he glanced at the aunt in the bakery, as if he thought this was inappropriate, and coughed twice:
"Anyway, those of us who live in this area hate her. But a month ago, the evil peasant woman suddenly disappeared, and then came the two little bed bugs. No, there were three little bed bugs, but there was a boy.
She came and then left. I guess the reason why the evil peasant woman disappeared was killed by these little bedbugs."
The aunt at the bakery suddenly raised her head, and her expression suddenly changed from a lost expression to gritted teeth: "It must be true, those two children are devils, they killed my Nini!"
The knight ignored the suddenly crazy aunt and turned to look at the refugees: "This area is occupied by you refugees. You said others are cunning and mean, but from the perspective of a peasant woman, what good things have you done?"
As a knight of judgment, he never listens to one-sided words. Refugees say that others are evil peasant women, but they never review their own behavior. Now a shadow hangs over the entire Hailan Kingdom, and a single peasant woman wants to survive in a place where refugees gather.
Is it okay to be less cruel?
The refugee smiled, nodded and bowed but did not dare to talk back.
When they came to the cellar door in the backyard, the knight suddenly frowned: "Why is there another... putrid smell?"
"It seems that your previous guess may have been correct." The knight glanced at the refugee.
He pushed the door, and as he expected, it couldn't be pushed open. However, there was light and shadow flickering in the crack of the door, and it was obvious that the reason why the door couldn't be pushed open was because someone was holding it back.
The knight sneered, took out his long sword, and slashed hard at the wooden door of the cellar.
The wooden door shattered with a sound, and at the same time, the figure behind the door was revealed. Two children, one fat and one thin, looked at them with frightened eyes.
"Lord Judge, it's them, it's them! The two children the sailor mentioned must be them! They killed my Nini..." The aunt held on to the knight's iron boots with trembling hands, and tears kept flowing.
.
Before the knight could speak, the two children looked at the shining iron sword in the knight's hand and were so frightened that they hid in the cellar.
The knight also walked down. After walking a few steps, he saw a half-rotten female corpse at the corner of the stairs.
The strong putrid smell before was emanating from the female corpse. Her face was so rotten that she couldn't see clearly, and there were fat and white maggots squirming among the green and white.
The refugees following the knight had also seen many hungry and rotting corpses. They were not afraid of this scene and even looked out curiously.
"Looking at the clothes, this corpse belongs to that vicious peasant woman!" The refugee exclaimed, "I asked why she disappeared. It turns out she died here..."
The knight took a look at the peasant woman's corpse and roughly judged the time of her death. After thinking about it for a moment, these children moved in as soon as the evil peasant woman died. It was obvious that her death was closely related to them.
The knight looked back at the aunt who was still crying, and he had already come to a rough conclusion in his mind.
I guess the sailor at Blue Wave Bay was right. With the viciousness of these two children, it was really possible for her daughter Nini to be pushed into the sea.
The knight sighed, in this dirty world, even children have picked up murderous weapons.
There was no way to walk in the cellar. Zilla and Yaniga stood in front of the cradle, looking at the knight in iron armor and the aunt behind him, with fear and despair on their faces.
"Did you kill the man outside?"
No one answered.
"Did you push her daughter into the sea?"
Still no one answered.
"It's okay not to say anything. You pushed her daughter into the sea and it was seen by a passing sailor. I will arrest you now in the name of the Judgment Knight. If there is a miscarriage of justice, you will be fine, but if you resist now
Don't blame me for the arrest..." The knight took out his sword and pointed it at Zilla and Yaniga. The cold iron light of the weapon made the two of them take a step back unconsciously.
After a moment of silence, Yaniga suddenly pushed Zilla away, walked up to the knight, pointed at himself, and kept saying "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", but couldn't say a word.
The knight looked at Yaniga's empty mouth, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
I heard from the refugees that there was a mute living here, but I never thought that this mute was not born mute, but had his tongue cut out?!
Seeing Yaniga's movements, Chaila's eyes darkened, and he finally stepped forward, protecting Yaniga behind his back.
"He didn't do it. It was me who pushed that woman into the sea, because her mother..." Chai La turned around and stared at the aunt beside her with a sinister gaze: "She insulted us! She also let dogs bite us! We are just
Self-defense.”
"That's because you blocked my business, so I let the dogs out..." Before the aunt could say anything, the knight stood in front of him.
"The trial court will make its own judgment on the merits. You all follow me."
Chai La said quietly: "I'll just go with you."
"Not only about her daughter, you also need to give an explanation for the dead woman outside. So you must follow me together."
Zhaila's eyes were dark: "We didn't kill that woman outside."
"Whether it was you who did it, we will know when we get to the trial court."
"I said, I will go with you. If Yaniga also leaves, who will take care of my sister?" Zilla looked at the knight fearlessly.
"Sister?" The knight's eyes wandered for a moment, then he focused on the cradle.
The refugee murmured in confusion: "Do they have a sister? I haven't seen her before?"
The knight moved forward, and Yaniga and Zilla were forced to retreat. When the knight came to the edge of the cradle, he looked inside.
His pupils shrank suddenly.
"What happened to her? Who did it?" The knight's tone was trembling, but his eyes were full of anger. As a judgment knight, his principle is to hate evil as much as he hates it. Although he doesn't like the actions of these two children, he
Looking at the girl in the cradle with no arms or legs, and even her mouth being sewn shut, she felt even more indignant.
Killing only lasts for a while, but torturing someone lasts a lifetime. What’s more, this is just a child?!
The knight looked at the girl in the cradle, with distress flashing in his eyes. The refugees also leaned forward curiously and looked into the cradle, while Yaniga and Zilla protected the cradle and looked at the knight with wary eyes.
Except for the aunt, everyone gathered around the cradle, and most importantly, everyone had their backs to her.
A look of resentment flashed in her eyes. She didn't care what was in the cradle. She just wanted to avenge her daughter. Now that everyone had their backs turned to her, this was the best chance!
She reached into her pocket with trembling hands, and slowly pulled out a knife she usually used to cut bread.
Her eyes were fixed on Chaila. According to the sailor she met before, it was the fat kid who pushed her Nini. Therefore, her first goal was to kill Chaila! If she had a chance, she would kill her too.
Die Yaniga.
She carried the knife behind her back, pretending that she wanted to see what was in the cradle like everyone else. However, when he approached everyone, he held the knife high and stabbed Zilla into the abdomen fiercely.
With blood spurting out and cries of pain, she was kicked back by the knight.
"Hahaha... Nini, I avenged you... Mom avenged you..." The aunt was kicked aside. Even though her chest hurt, even though Yaniga was not killed, the murderer of Nini was already there.
The bloody blade is gone, nothing else matters anymore...
Zhaila's knife instantly broke the balance of the cellar.
The knight glared at the aunt, he had no idea that she would dare to kill someone in front of him?!
"Zila...Zila...don't..." Yaniga, who had never been able to speak ventriloquism, seemed to have an idea at this moment.
Even Guina, who was lying in the cradle and pretending to be deaf and mute, couldn't help but struggle and asked in sharp and weird ventriloquism: "What's going on? What happened? Chaila? Chaila, answer me,
What’s wrong with you?"
"I...it's okay." Zhaila was lying on the ground, vomiting blood from her mouth, but still comforting Guina.
"I don't believe it. What's wrong with you?" Guina said anxiously, "Judge, please let me see Chai La?"
The knight glanced at Kuina who was struggling in the cradle. Her ventriloquism was very strange, and her appearance was extremely scary.
"Zilla, he..." The knight wanted to comfort Guina, but looking at Zilla whose pupils were gradually starting to dilate, he really couldn't tell the lie like 'he's fine'.
The aunt was laughing crazily, but there was dead silence here.
When Chaila's body temperature completely disappeared, Yaniga lay on top of him, tears streaming down her face.
At this time, Yaniga suddenly saw a blood-stained knife falling on the floor not far away. It was the knife that the aunt used to stab Zilla, but after the aunt was kicked away by the knight, the knife fell on
on the ground.
Yaniga looked at Zilla who was no longer breathing, suddenly smiled sadly, and picked up the knife.
His eyes were dazed for a while.
Guina, I'm sorry, and brother Feng Man... farewell.
Yaniga picked up the knife and stabbed himself hard in the heart.
Just as the knife pierced his heart, Yaniga suddenly heard a familiar call: "Yaniga?"
Yaniga endured the pain and turned his head to look in the direction of the cellar passage. A figure suddenly rushed over.
He was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised a smile.
