Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Joyce wanted to answer that I was not a master, but he couldn't get out of his mouth.

Now he is a noble nobleman. Even in his previous life, he lived in a good era, and he was also considered rich. Although he has seen the poorest people at the bottom through various channels... How can it be compared with the situation he saw with his own eyes? .

Although he had expected it in his heart, all this still made him silent, and the sympathy and pity he felt could only show that he was still a human being.

"Hello, are you working?" Joyce replied, trying to sound as friendly as possible.

Sally gave a soft "um" and explained:

"My leg is broken, so I can't do other jobs, I can only do some simple jobs."

Joyce said softly: "I know what happened to you, so I plan to provide some help. Don't you hope that those children who have the same experience as you will also be free?"

"Really?" There was a light in Sally's eyes. What this light represented, Joyce didn't understand, or didn't dare to understand.

Looking at her brother Barron, who nodded in confirmation, Sally smiled, her eyebrows curled into crescent moons.

"Thank you, master, thank you, master..."

Joyce interrupted the little girl's frequent thanks, turned around and looked around, and found that everyone's eyes were on his side, and when he glanced over, they all avoided them in fear, only two or three years old Yes, the ignorant toddler dared to continue looking at him, his eyes full of curiosity.

Sighing, he said, "Let's go, let's find another place to have a detailed chat."

The former adventurer Pablo was happy to find a like-minded helper, and continued to say:

"There is a small shop near here, just in time for something to eat, chat while eating..."

After getting Joyce's affirmative gesture, he said to Barron: "Go, carry your sister behind your back."

"Thank you sir."

Sally added that although Joyce had already turned around and left the dangerous building.

…………

"This is a colony."

Following behind without saying a word, Mr. Hunter, who had watched the whole process, reminded him aloud.

"I know."

Joyce replied, looking up at the drifting clouds, he said:

"But the sun is still warm and the sky is still blue."

…………

The small shop mentioned by the former adventurer Pablo is a coffee shop. Of course, the environment is not good. It is far worse than the coffee shop on Enmat Street, and it cannot be compared with the coffee brewed by the maid.

Joyce just took a sip and put the coffee cup on the table.

This store sells everything. Joyce ordered white bread, bolognese noodles, and thick soup, and saw the brothers and sisters Barron and Sally savoring these foods with heart...In their eyes, such a rich food may be eaten. Once there is no next chance, so eat very seriously.

Joyce turned his gaze out of the window, looked at the crowd like walking corpses, waited for the two children to finish eating, and then asked:

"Are you full?"

"I'm full, thank you sir."

Barron gave Sally the last sip of broth, said hastily, and even wanted to stand up and bow, but was stopped by Joyce.

He went on to say: "Then tell me about the gangster situation."

Sally burped and began to tell:

"That day I went to help Aunt Mora do the laundry. On the way home, I was beaten unconscious. When I woke up, I found that I was caught in a dark basement. A particularly fierce man broke my leg with a stick. Then teach me how to beg..."

"Then I was thrown into a larger basement. There were many children around my age. Some of them were physically disabled, some were blind and deaf, and they were all caught there."

"We children are dragged to different places to beg every day. How much money we have to get every day, otherwise there will be no food... Even if we get money, we only have a little food. If we are found hiding money, we will be beaten alive. Death, I have only seen it twice, both were beaten to death in front of me..."

Sally has never read a book, and she speaks incoherently, always saying something here and there, and the above content is extracted by Joyce herself.

Although the little girl's words were very simple, she unexpectedly showed compassion for children in the same situation... It's hard to imagine that such a miserable girl would show sympathy for the weaker.

Maybe it's because of her young age, maybe it's because of his elder brother, it was Barron who brought Sally back to avoid being left dead on the street, which made her feel grateful... And kindness is contagious.

"How many people are in that gang?" Joyce asked.

Sally thought for a while, and at the same time counted with her fingers:

"One, two, three..."

Realizing he had asked the wrong question, Joyce re-asked:

"Do you know where you are locked up every day?"

Before Sally could answer, the former adventurer Pablo answered, "I know this question better."

"I've followed the gang members' process, they would take all the kids after nine o'clock at night, take them to a basement three blocks away, and leave them under guard ... and then put the kids up at six o'clock every morning. Go to different places and continue begging."

Proficient, cruel, almost like a complete industrial chain... Joyce made an evaluation in his heart, and then said:

"That is to say, only in the middle of the night can we catch them all and save all the children by the way."

"Master, are you going to kill Cassie and the others?" Sally raised her head as much as possible and asked Joyce.

Cassie was probably a friend she made after she was kidnapped... Joyce nodded: "Yes, don't you want those children to be as free as you are?"

"Yes." Sally said.

Joyce nodded with a smile, and then said to the former adventurer:

"Meet here at eight o'clock in the evening, and you will lead the way."

Pablo asked in surprise: "Are you going to act today? And it's just two... three of us!"

"I understand your feelings, because I was the same as you when I heard this story for the first time, but it is precisely because of this that we should be cautious. It is best to find a few more helpers, otherwise it is no different from sending you to death, and those The child may never be free."

"I'll look for it, you just need to lead the way." Joyce said flatly, perhaps because of his strong self-confidence, the former adventurer didn't say any more.

"Send them both back, I'll go first, see you at night."

After Joyce finished speaking, he paid the bill and left.

…………

Back in the dilapidated dangerous building, sitting on the familiar bed, Sally recalled what happened just now, and asked softly:

"Brother, who are those masters?"

Barron was silent for a while before replying:

"They're good people, they're heroes."

"My brother is a hero too," Sally said.
