Mystery: Beginning with the Warrior Path

Chapter 111 Hugh

Seeing the four children walking towards him under the watchful eyes of the fierce men behind, Roman continued to walk forward slowly as if he didn't realize it, but adjusted his direction slightly.

A few children in front of him pretended to be playing and ran towards Roman. From Roman's perspective, their every move was clear, and the way they acted desperately seemed so ridiculous.

But Roman couldn't laugh at all.

Looking clumsy, but actually flexible, Roman easily avoided the hands of those children reaching out to him, ignored them, and continued to walk in the direction of the big men in front.

They also seemed to realize that Roman had spotted them, and turned around as if they were running into the dark alley behind them.

There are very few gas lamps on the main roads in the East District, and the lights are dim, let alone those small alleys.

He probably wanted to use the dark alley to block Roman's sight, taking advantage of his familiarity with the terrain to avoid Roman.

Roman looked at the three people who kept their backs for him, bowed his head, picked up three small stones from the ground, shook them with his hands, and then threw them into the dark alley.

what!what!what!
Three stones accurately hit the calves of the three of them, and they fell to the ground in an instant, hugging their legs, and kept rolling.

The people outside heard the screams coming from the alley, no one wanted to see what happened, everyone ran away.

The way for people in the Eastern District to survive is to stay away from these troubles.

Except for the few children who stood behind Roman and saw all of Roman's movements, they seemed to be frightened in place and did not dare to move.

Roman ignored the children behind him, but walked into the dark alley and came to the three strong men.

The three who rolled and screamed in pain on the ground also saw Roman's arrival.

Among them was a bearded man with a long scar on his face, yelling at Roman, what about the Northern Wind Party, what about Boss Griff, what do you want to look good at.

Roman didn't bother to listen, and picked up a not-so-thick wooden stick from the side, and smashed it on the mouth of the scarred face.

He broke a few teeth in an instant, typed back the rest of his words, covered his mouth, and whined.

Roman looked at the two men next to him, and asked in an emotionless tone:

"Can you speak well?"

The two men hugged their injured leg and trembled. One of the older men looked at his blood-stained companion with some fear, and said, "Yes."

"I just listened to him." Roman pointed to the scarred face covering his mouth with a stick, causing him to hide back in fright. "Listen to him, what is the North Wind Party? Tell me, what's your name?"

"I'm Craig, from the 'Northern Wind Party.'"

"This is a gang composed of many people from the coast of the Middle Sea, controlling several blocks around here."

It was only then that Roman realized that the accent of the slightly white-haired man in front of him didn't sound like a local.

"What's up with those little kids?"

Listening to Roman's question, Craig didn't know that he had seen the actions of several of them just now. Looking at the miserable Lugar next to him, Craig didn't dare to hide it, and said honestly:

"Some of them are orphans we brought over from the cities of Jianhai County, and many of them are from the East District. We..."

"Wait, are they really all orphans?"

Roman looked at Craig in front of him. He didn't use his Extraordinary ability. Just the coercion from the Extraordinary's spirituality made Craig a little breathless.

"No, not all of them. Some of them are from the countryside beyond Jianhai. We brought them out while their parents weren't paying attention."

A layer of gray mist seemed to condense in Roman's eyes, "Aren't you afraid that these children will call the police? This is Backlund."

Craig didn't dare to look up at Roman, and replied with his head down: "These children were originally going to be transported to the colonies by smuggling boats. Recently, Pritz Harbor and the surrounding waters were under martial law, and the smuggling boats were affected. They can only temporarily stay in Baker. Rand."

"Our boss said that we can't raise them for nothing, so let us take them out..."

Roman didn't choose to continue listening, and kicked him in the stomach. Even if he withdrew his strength, Craig was lying on the ground, hunched over, like a cooked Enmat red shrimp.

Roman looked at the last younger man, who had been shaking on the ground with his head bowed from the beginning until now.

He poked him on the shoulder with the stick in his hand, "Where are the children captured by you? How many guards are there? How many children are still outside?"

"In the basement of a single building at No. 24 Alanke Street, there are not only those children, but also some other people who are going to be sent to the colony. There are about ten guards. I don't know how many children are outside now. , but they will all be taken back to that basement at twelve o'clock in the evening."

When Roman turned his head, he saw the four children standing far behind him.

Roman walked over and looked at them:

"Why don't you run away?"

"Sir, this area is their chassis. Without your help, even if we run away now, we will be caught by them soon."

One of the older boys with dark red hair and freckles looked up at Roman boldly and said.

Roman squinted his eyes when he heard this, and looked at him:
"What's your name? Did you go to school?"

Roman listened to him as if he had been educated.

"My name is Claret, sir, Claret Pace, and I did go to school."

"Clayte, how did you get brought here?"

The boy named Claret Pace looked a little sad, and said in a low voice:
"I come from Conston City, Jianhai County. I originally had a happy family. My father was a grain merchant. A few months ago, my father's company went bankrupt. After the bankruptcy, he drank all day and died at home. My mother was injured. If there is no shock, he will soon become ill and eventually pass away."

"Originally, the house and manor in my family were taken to pay off the debt. I became a homeless orphan and was abducted here by them."

"your family……"

Roman was about to ask more questions, when he suddenly saw a small figure coming from the entrance of the alley, at first Roman thought it was a companion of these children.

When the figure approached, Roman saw a girl in a traditional knight practice uniform, with messy and rough shoulder-length blond hair, less than 1.5 meters tall, with delicate features but a little baby fat.

Her baby-fat face had an unusually serious expression, and she was looking at Roman and the figures lying on the ground behind him.

This sense of sight...

Could this be Miss "Judgment"?

Roman thought to himself, but his face was a little calm. He looked at Claret next to him, and said in a relaxed tone:

"Clette, is this lady with you too?"
