Here, the Lord said this is a good thing

Chapter 121 Prelude to the Festival Day
September 9th, morning, 15:6.

The woman was awake, but she did not open her eyes and her breathing was as calm as ever.

Until that light little guy, with light and graceful steps, squeezed in through the crack of her bedroom door that she had left open, jumped onto her bed, and sniffed her breath gently.

"Meow?"

The dark kitten called to its owner.

In order not to scare the little guy, the woman opened one of her eyes at a particularly slow speed.

She saw a piece of soft black fur, which was sitting in front of her face. It was a very large kitten because it was too close.

It tilted its head and met its owner's gaze with its round eyes.

There was little light in the dim bedroom, but both the woman and her cat enjoyed the quiet atmosphere.

After confirming that the owner was not dead, the little black cat gently licked the woman's cheek, urging her to get up quickly and fill his small dinner basin.

"Okay, okay, I understand."

The woman sat up contentedly, because if she didn't get up, this little guy, who would become fierce when he was hungry, would start to step on her face with his little paws.

As she sat up in bed, her face emerged from the sunken pillow, and she opened one eye, for it was her only good eye.

Some hideous scars almost filled up the right half of her cheek, completely destroying her appearance and completely taking away one of her eyes.

The thin quilt slipped from her shoulders, revealing her bare right shoulder.

In addition to her right eye, the woman is also missing a right arm.

These wounds have long since healed, and it looks like it must have been a long time ago.

The woman didn't seem to care about her own disability. Anyway, her cat didn't care, so she didn't care either.

After putting a coat on herself with one hand, as soon as the woman got out of bed, the little black cat jumped down and rubbed her legs.

There seems to be a problem with her right leg. The right knee cannot bend, which makes her walk a little weird. However, the little black cat can sit on her right foot when she drags her right leg to move.

Until the woman came to the kitchen and took out a jar placed in the cupboard and opened it, the little black cat immediately jumped on the stove and stared at the jar in her hand with longing eyes. Inside was some fried small Dried fish, it already smells that tempting smell.

The woman pinched the little black cat's head lovingly and poured a few small dried fish into its small dinner basin. The cat immediately pounced on it and started to feast on it.

After satisfying the little guy, the woman put the jar away with a smile and took a look in the cupboard to confirm her rations.

Just like she remembered, there was no bread at home, but there was still some bacon.

I have to go out today...

Reality is always so easy to accept, but you have to accept it.

Fortunately, when the woman finished washing and getting dressed, and limped to the door of the house, the little guy chewed the last bite of dried fish, followed quickly, and consciously jumped into the bag she placed on the ground next to the shoe cabinet. In a vegetable basket.

The woman lifted the vegetable basket and touched the little black cat inside.

With this little guy by her side, she could have the courage to live and face this unacceptable reality.

She covered her scarf and made sure her face was completely covered before opening the door and stepping out of the house.

Today is the day of the founding celebration. The entire Shigwig, no, the entire Laurent Empire, is immersed in a festive atmosphere, because today is a rare statutory paid holiday in the Laurent Empire.

As the capital of the Laurentian Empire, the residents here are the most excited.

The royal parade in the morning, the grand celebration in the afternoon, and the fireworks show in the evening were all grand events that even commoners like them could participate in.

As for the nobles, those nobles may be busier than the common people, because on this day, they need to show their noble status and carry out some "fun with the people" activities for the common people. They also have many noble banquets in the evening To participate, it is too late to rush to the venue.

However, because it is still early, many people who have been tired from running around on weekdays are still taking advantage of the holidays to replenish their sleep and are still immersed in their dreams. It will be a few hours before everyone gets up and starts to be active.

"Lady Corinna?"

When the woman passed by the back door of a nursing home, the door just opened, and Valentin, who was about to throw away the trash, saw the woman with her face covered, carrying a cat.

He remembered that this lady lived in the apartment building next door. For some special reasons, this lady lived alone. She would never go through the door of the apartment building, but would pass through this small alley to go to the bread shop at the entrance of the alley. shop.

Valentin knew the lady's last name, and Jennifer had told him it.

Jennifer also asked him to be respectful to the lady if he met her.

Valentin still didn't understand this, until one time the kitten raised by Mrs. Corinna ran into the nursing home and took risks. When he handed the little black cat back to Mrs. Corinna, who was looking for the little black cat everywhere, He accidentally noticed the injuries on Mrs. Corinna's face and the fact that she was missing an arm.

Perhaps she had suffered some terrible disaster?Is Jennifer just showing sympathy to her?

Valentin also sympathized with the lady, so he put down the garbage and gave a good bow to Lady Corinna.

"Good morning, Lady Corinne, have a nice day."

Mrs. Corinna seemed to be taken aback by Valentin's "politeness". She paused for a moment, then nodded to Valentin and replied to the boy:
"Good morning...thank you."

After saying that, she rudely quickened her pace and quickly escaped from Valentine's sight.

Just a kind boy... Just a kind boy...

Mrs. Corinna had to keep emphasizing this sentence to herself in order to calm down her heart again.

"Meow?"

Sensing the abnormality of its owner, the little black cat in the vegetable basket raised its head and called to Mrs. Corinna, and then its owner resumed his normal pace.

Are you too enthusiastic?Scared Lady Corinne?

Valentin scratched his head in embarrassment. He was about to lift the garbage bag at his feet and continue to throw it away. Suddenly, he felt someone behind him.

Looking back, Valentin saw Jennifer standing against the bedroom door, looking at him with a complicated look.

"Uh... what's wrong?"

Valentin moved a little, and then he realized that Jennifer was not looking at him, but at the position where Mrs. Corinna had been standing just now.

He put the garbage outside the door, closed the door and returned to Jennifer, who was still looking in that direction.

However, he found that Jennifer's eyes quickly relaxed and became less complicated.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Valentin asked again to Jennifer, his mentor and his wife, in the gentlest voice he could make.

Jennifer glanced at him. Whether as a mentor or as a wife, Jennifer decided that there were some things that she didn't need to tell Valentin yet.

So she just hugged Valentin gently, enjoyed her lover's arms for a while, and then said to Valentin:
"I'm hungry. Let's prepare breakfast. By the way, there are a lot of appointments today. Those guests who are looking forward to the noble banquet tonight will keep us busy all day today and have no time to participate in the activities."

"clear."

Valentin was not hit by the reality of not having a vacation. Since confirming his relationship with Jennifer that night nine days ago, he has always felt that he has inexhaustible enthusiasm and vitality, and a full sense of happiness in his heart. I feel that no matter what difficulties I encounter, it is not a problem.

As long as he has his beloved Jennifer by his side.

……

"Oh, Mrs. Corinne, the old rules?"

The owner of the bakery seemed to have known Mrs. Corinna a long time ago. As soon as the lady with the cat appeared at the door of his shop, he took the initiative to say hello to the lady in a natural and ordinary tone.

"Ah."

Mrs. Corinna had already relaxed. The bakery owner was her "acquaintance" and knew how to treat her so as not to irritate her, which made her feel very comfortable.

The bakery had just opened at this time, and the surrounding housewives had not yet arrived for shopping. Apart from the scent of wheat that filled the air, only Mrs. Corinna and the boss were in the store.

The boss put two pounds of soft bread and one pound of cookies into a paper bag, along with a glass bottle of milk, and finally placed these products on the counter.

While Mrs. Corinna was putting the vegetable basket on the counter, he secretly reached out to touch the little black cat inside, and took the little guy out of the vegetable basket so that Mrs. Corinna could return the paper bag with bread. There is milk in the vegetable basket.

"Take care of your master, you hear me? You brave and great little guy, hehe."

After seriously explaining to the little guy who was struggling with the hair on his arms, the boss put the little black cat on the counter as soon as Mrs. Corinna loaded the things.

Mrs. Corinna put down a one-pound note next to the little black cat, and then placed the little black cat on the paper bag in the vegetable basket.

Then she nodded to the boss, picked up the vegetable basket and turned around, ready to go home.

"Meow!"

Maybe the freshly baked bread was a little hot, but the little black cat suddenly jumped out of the vegetable basket and fell to the ground.

It seemed to have discovered a suspicious big rat next to the trash can across the street. Taking advantage of the quiet street with no pedestrians, it suddenly rushed over there.

"Ah! Don't run..."

Under the stiff gaze of the bakery owner, Mrs. Corinna chased her kitten in the direction she left and left his bakery.

And... left the street.

The boss breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately looked at Mrs. Corinna who was leaving with some trouble.

He hesitated for only a second before stepping out from behind the counter and chasing Mrs. Corinne in the direction she had left.

In the process, he gently broke a small wooden stick filled with monster power in his pocket.

This is the southeast side of the lower city of Shigwig. In a building not far from the bakery, many people with serious faces suddenly poured out and chased in the direction where the bakery owner left.

These people quickly followed the bakery owner. One of the leading men asked the boss: "478, report the situation! How did the target leave the house and run over there?"

They had noticed the figure of Mrs. Corinna running into a small park. Everyone's faces were gloomy and scary, as if they were facing a very serious disaster that was about to break out.

"Yes, as you can see, Corinna Laustaff's stabilizer left her side."

The bakery owner pointed to Mrs. Corinna, who was looking for the little black cat in the distance, and said to these people:

"According to the regular fourth special plan, I initiated an assistance application to all members of the Fourth Alert Area of ​​Infinite Eye and quickly helped her find the cat."

"Copy that, everyone disperse! Hurry and retrieve Corinna Laustaff's stabilizer!"

"Yes!"

Of course Mrs. Corinna didn't know that she suddenly had so many "helpers". There were no people walking in the small park early in the morning, so Corinna could safely observe the traces of the little black cat.

But this pure black little black cat was too hard to find. Even she could only catch it running into this small park. After following it, she could only carefully observe some dark shadows. Is there a little black cat here?

But she never hesitated to change to another pet with a more eye-catching color.

This little black cat is a gift given to her by the gods. She will not give up on this little black cat, just like this little black cat has not given up on her.

She couldn't give it up, she was the only relative left.

Corinna moved around the small park so anxiously that she even forgot that the scarf covering her face was a little crooked, exposing the scars on her face to the air.

It wasn't until she saw a young gentleman sitting on a bench reading a newspaper that she subconsciously covered her face and prepared to pass by the gentleman without disturbing each other.

"Meow, snoring..."

The familiar voice startled Corinna. She looked towards the direction of the sound and saw her beloved little black cat lying on the bench next to the gentleman.

The young gentleman was reaching out with one hand and stroking the soft belly of the little black cat skillfully, making the little black cat purr comfortably.

Corinna, who had found the little black cat, subconsciously showed an expression of surprise, but she couldn't help but restrain her smile, somewhat complaining that the hateful little guy had allowed her to run away so far.

She took a step or two closer to the bench, then stopped because she didn't want to interact with strangers.

"Madam, is this little guy your cat?"

The young gentleman's dark eyes crossed the top edge of the newspaper and noticed Corinna. He put down the newspaper and smiled gently at Corinna.

Corinna then noticed that this young gentleman had an oriental face. He was very handsome, had a very gentle temperament, and his gesture of stroking the kitten was very gentle.

This made Corinna even more afraid to approach the other party.

"Sorry, because I also have a cat, so when I saw this cute little guy, I couldn't help but pet it."

However, the other party's words suddenly broke through many of her defenses and aroused her interest.

This is the first time she has met other people who also have cats. The security and cleaning in the lower city of Shigwig are actually very good. Wild cats are not common. Families who have time to raise cats usually live in the upper city. .

After hesitating for a short while, Corinna took two steps closer to the oriental-faced man and came to the other end of the bench.

She didn't sit down, she just covered her face with fear, as if she just wanted to take the little black cat away.

This kind of encounter with a stranger of the opposite sex was too advanced for her, and she was a little afraid to talk to him.

Feeling inferior because of your scars?
No, for Corinna, she just didn't have enough courage to accept the monster-like looks from outsiders.

Once I can't help but get stressed...

Corinna really doesn’t want to kill anyone anymore!

So, sir, for your safety, please let me take my cat away quietly.

The agents of the Infinite Eye who came to "assist" Corinna in finding the cat also noticed the situation on the bench and discovered that Corinna's cat was in the hands of a man.

Everyone became nervous. After they sneaked closer to the bench and saw clearly who the man sitting on the bench was, everyone's expressions instantly became very exciting.

Why is this gentleman...appearing here?

The man who picked up the little black cat raised by Corinna was Ye He.

The reason for his appearance here is simple. In the past nine days, he has come to Shigwig City every day, changed his position, and stayed for a while to let Caesar thoroughly investigate the surrounding area.

Nine days!Nine whole days!
Counting the previous five days, it has been two weeks since today, but Ye He has never found the whereabouts of the first generation Williamt.

For a professional mercenary with a nanorobot system like Caesar that can explore large areas in a wide area, it is "simple" to find a target who will definitely appear in this city in a not-so-big city. Task, but nothing has been achieved in the past two weeks, even Ye He began to feel a little embarrassed.

In terms of alerting the nobles, and in collecting statistics for the whole area in the lower city, all the "easier" ways that Ye He could think of to achieve his goals failed.

So Ye He started looking for someone personally. To put it bluntly, he was a little anxious.

Today is the Founding Celebration Day. In a few hours, all the Willamettes will go to the Willamette family cemetery near Shigwig for a celebration ceremony.

Ye He really couldn't accept it. His employer, William Mut IV, used his life to lead him to the result of the goal of the first generation William Mut.

But as Corinna thought, reality is always unacceptably cruel, and people have to accept this reality.

This area is already the last area that Ye He has explored. In the city of Shigwig, Ye He has confirmed that there is no trace of the first generation of Williamt.

The cruel reality that he had to accept made Ye He feel very bad. Just then, a little black cat that was comparable to the owner of the black cat shop suddenly appeared next to him.

Just use this little guy to calm down your mood.

I didn’t expect this little guy to have such a special and interesting owner as Corinna.

This made Ye He feel better.

Corinna's specialness is not only reflected in the agents of the Infinity Eye who came with her and are now hiding around the park, but she herself is also very strange.

Ye He saw a full and active white light from her body.

This disfigured woman who even lost an arm turned out to be a favored one by God.What surprised Ye He even more was that he felt from the divine power in Corinna's body... an aura of divine power similar to that of Father Andre.

She is... the favored one of [Holy Cross]?
This righteous god who has no successors in the Federation is actually still here in the capital of the empire, leaving behind a favored person?
Facing the shivering Corinna, Ye He smiled at her and said:

"Don't worry, I don't care about your scars, and you can't kill me. Let's sit down and talk about cats."

After hearing Ye He's words of completely opening the wound and stepping over directly, Corinna finally used her remaining eye to seriously meet Ye He's gaze.

This man's eyes were magnanimous and he was so confident that he was almost arrogant, but if he could speak to such an extent and see his own threat, he must not be some ignorant arrogant maniac.

An inexplicable impulse drove Corinna to actually sit down.

She picked up the little black cat and put it on her lap, but did not get up and leave immediately.

If... this man is really a powerful man who will not be killed by her...

If...this man really doesn't care about his scars...

Corinna's thinking was a little disordered, and she couldn't explain the complicated feelings in her heart.

But Ye He knew that she was just too lonely.

Humans are social animals, and social interaction is inevitable and essential for humans.

In this world without the Internet, where it is impossible to socialize with people without meeting in person, Corinna, who is overly powerful and has serious psychological problems, is actually almost being swallowed up by the loneliness deep in her heart.

"you……"

Corinna did not look at Ye He, but just lifted the scarf off her face a little. She knew that this angle would expose the scars on her face to Ye He's eyes.

"You don't care about my scars?"

"Yeah, I don't care."

Ye He's voice did not fluctuate at all, and his eyes did not change at all. As always, it was as if the hideous scar on Corinna's face did not exist.

"Oh, I'm not pretending not to see it, it's like this. I once had a comrade-in-arms who was also a woman. This unlucky guy happened to be disfigured by fire. It was so complete that not a single hair was left on her. .”

As he spoke, Ye He also made gestures on his head with his hand. Without the need for him to describe it too much, Corinna quickly empathized and imagined how bad the lady's situation was.

"But..." Ye He showed a very unhappy expression:
"This hateful guy later sent me photos of her twin daughters. Those two children are so cute. I'm so jealous of them!"

Corinna blinked, and she felt that she suddenly understood what Ye He meant, and Ye He continued:

"So, since then I have understood the truth that scars are not hereditary, but happiness really makes people jealous and helpless."

Ye He looked into Corinna's eyes, smiled at Corinna and said:
"So I don't care, I don't care about your scars. A lady with such beautiful eyes like you will definitely have a cute child that makes me jealous, right?"

Corinna pursed her lips. Her mind was completely distracted by Ye He's emotional story. She only noticed that Ye He was indirectly praising her beautiful eyes.

Ever since Corinna's disfigurement, no one has ever been able to talk about her appearance so loudly in front of her. But in the face of Ye He's unwavering praise, Corinna felt a little hot in her face and felt sweet in her heart. Yes, there is no uncomfortable feeling like before.

"You understand, right? Oh, I really don't want to keep talking about this, let's talk about your cat."

When she heard Ye He change the topic, Corinna realized that she was the one who initiated the topic about appearance, but Ye He ended the topic uncomfortably.

This reverse experience also made Corinna find it interesting. Her defenses had unknowingly collapsed and her whole body relaxed.

"cat?"

"Meow?"

Corinna glanced at the little black cat on her lap. This was the first time she met someone who also had a cat. She didn't know what topic to talk about cats with Ye He.

"Well, your cat doesn't have a name?" Ye He noticed the way the little black cat responded to Corinna and couldn't help but laugh: "You shouldn't just call it 'cat', right?"

He noticed that Corinna was blushing again.

Is this really the case?Is it true that some people don’t give their cats a name but just call them “cat”?
"It...it...it's Nicholas! Nicholas, come..."

Corinna, who was a little embarrassed and angry by Ye He's laughter, forced herself to pull out the first name in her mind and put it on the little black cat.

She put the little black cat on the bench and tried to let the little black cat react by calling the name "Nicholas" to prove to Ye He that the name was not just hers and that she was not the kind of person who would call a cat "Nicholas". "Cats" are weird people.

Unfortunately, the little black cat naturally didn't understand what Corinna meant. Amid Corinna's increasingly urgent calls, the little black cat turned back and glanced at Ye He helplessly.

"Ha ha ha ha."

This interaction between master and servant made Ye He laugh happily, and the bench in the park was filled with a happy atmosphere.

The surrounding spies had been squatting in the dark for a long time. They were surprised to find Corinna sitting next to Ye He and chatting "happily" with Ye He.

"As expected of...a man worthy of His Highness's fancy."

The leader of the spies murmured with admiration, and then his eyes became strange again.

Although it is a good thing that these two have no conflict, but... this kind of scene where a strange man and woman meet together and have a heated conversation...

The leader knew that these two people would not continue to develop their relationship in a normal direction, but if something happened...

No, this matter still has to be reported to the Highness for a decision!

After making the decision that a loyal subordinate should make, the leader secretly retreated and evacuated the small park. At a distance that he ensured would not disturb the two people, he quietly passed through some of the holes inside the Infinity Eye. communications, sending an urgent message to his superiors.

The use of the power of monsters has been very mature within the Infinity Eye organization. His superior quickly received the message he sent. After a few tenths of a second of consideration, the superior continued to pass the message on.

In the end, this message was verbally relayed to Catalina’s ears by a maid within 1 minute of being sent by the leader:

"Your Highness, Yehe is in contact with Corinna Laustaff, but the two are getting along well."

After saying that, the maid leaned down and took care of Catalina's hair, who was putting on makeup.

Catalina was stunned for a moment after receiving the message. There was another piece of information on her side, the latest information about Corinna Laustaff.

After the two were combined, Catalina reached out to stop the makeup artist who was doing her makeup, smiled heartily, and then said to the makeup artist:
"It's okay, continue."

Today is a big day for the Willamette family, and members of the royal family like Caterina get up earlier than Corinna.

This set of complicated makeup took three hours to complete, and the complicated and dazzling royal costume next to it took Catalina an extra ten minutes to put on.

After all this is done, it is just preparation work. Next, according to the "royal tradition", there are some special activities of the Williamt family. Catalina needs to wait until about 10:30 in the morning to board the Williamt family. The carriages of the convoy headed towards the imperial mausoleum.

She had no way to rest, she had to show the etiquette she "should" as a royal princess during the procession of the motorcade through the entire Shigwig, including but not limited to waving to the people to thank the people and accepting the children. Lay flowers, deliver people-friendly speeches, etc...

All for the sake of the throne... Catalina used this reason to give herself a lot of motivation.

But when Ekaterina, who just casually wore an expensive evening dress, with her hair down and no makeup at all, passed by the door of her room, Katerina still clenched her fists hard!

hateful!Damn!

At this time of year, she was so envious of Ekaterina!
As a Williamite, her aunt could completely ignore these "royal rules", and no one inside or outside the family dared to say anything about her.

Who can say anything to a William who gave up the throne he had already obtained, who has been hiding in the dark since he was 11 years old, and who silently contributed to the prosperity of the entire country?
Even the elders of the Williamt family, those who abide by the "rules" the most, the elders of Katerina, only showed expressions of surprise when they met Catherine passing by.

They thought it was a surprise for Ekaterina to participate in this celebration!

"Family glory", in their hearts, this word has been equated with Ekaterina.

Of course, this is just Catalina's intuitive feeling. In fact...

"roll."

"Yes Yes."

A group of clan elders ran away from Yekaterina's sight with pale faces. The old men in their 80s and [-]s all ran away with the vigor of the young lads.

Because they are really running for their lives!

Ekaterina has always disliked them, and this eldest niece is the kind who really dares to kill her!

Why is the reputation of the Williamite royal family so high in the hearts of the people of the empire, and why is it so respected and loved by the people?
Why is the reputation of the Laurent royal family an absolute clean slate among high-level aristocratic circles across the continent?

Because those "unclear" Willamettes were either directly crushed to death by Ekaterina, or she threw them to the cold places in the north to die.

When knowing the greatness of Ekaterina's ability to give up the throne, everyone should also understand that this is also a ruthless person who can even give up absolute power!

God knows how much effort William IV put in, both overtly and covertly, to prevent Catherine from digging up the imperial mausoleum, which was the ancestral grave of her own Williamite family!
Both Christine and Katerina have realized that Ye He and Yekaterina are very "similar", they are really similar!
Even now, when Catherine appears in William IV's palace and looks at her brother who is wearing imperial clothes, William IV still feels a tingling sensation in his scalp.

Before Yehe arrived at Sigwig, King William IV lifted Catherine's ban and respectfully asked her to return to Saidaweil. An unreasonable sister avoided this year's founding celebration.

But he failed.

Ye He, who seemed to be getting impatient, had already made William IV feel a little bad. His sister, who hated red tape the most, had stayed until now and asked to participate in the founding celebration...

"you……"

William IV looked at Ekaterina in the mirror and spoke. He really wanted to have the courage and confidence to forcefully ask Ekaterina to leave.

"To shut up."

But Ekaterina always had more courage and confidence, which made him, the elder brother, dare not say anything more.

Until he put on the emperor's clothes for the celebration and prepared to complete the sacrificial activities inside the palace, he still left the palace a little cautiously.

……

Siegwig became lively, the time was almost up, and the people had already poured into the streets to prepare for the royal motorcade parade of the Williamt family.

The noise on the street spread into the small park, disturbing the two people who were chatting more and more enthusiastically and happily.

"It seems that the celebration is about to begin. You...I need to go get busy. Let's chat next time."

Ye He originally wanted to ask Corinna if she wanted to go to the celebration together, but considering Corinna's character and his desire to get into a fight later, he chose to end the chat.

"Ah."

Corinna nodded without surprise. When Ye He stood up, she also put the little black cat into the vegetable basket and stood up.

She did not lift the vegetable basket, but looked at Ye He cautiously.

As soon as she got up, she forgot about the relaxation she had felt when chatting with Ye He just now, and became a little nervous again.

"By the way," Ye He saw that Corinna was worried about gains and losses, and worried about whether he would appear in her life again, so Ye He took the initiative to extend his left hand to Corinna:

"I am Ye He. I am temporarily staying at the First Hotel. I am the priest of Yue Zhihui, but now I am temporarily working for the royal family."

Name, address, identity, Ye He told Corinna this information frankly, expressing to this poor lady that he didn't mind making friends with her, which made Corinna's eyes light up a little bit. of light.

"I'm...Corinna, Corinna Laustaff."

Corinna mustered up the courage to give her left hand to Ye He and shook hands with Ye He.

"Well, hello Corinna, it was nice chatting with you. See you next time."

The friendly handshake was quickly ended by Ye He. He knew that Corinna could do this because she was extremely charming. If she held her hand for a little longer, she would become stressed.

"Ah."

After nodding to each other, Corinna watched Ye He's figure go away until it disappeared at the edge of the park. Then she picked up the vegetable basket and headed back to her home.

After Corinna left, the spies in the park also dispersed. Although they did not receive instructions from above, everything was fine, which was the best outcome for them.

Ye He suddenly looked down at his left hand. When he shook hands with Corinna just now, he came into contact with some very thin calluses on Corinna's palm.

He bent his fingers, looked at the posture of his hands, and understood how Corinna's hand calluses came about.

It seems that this favored person of the [Holy Cross] not only has a wonderful past, but is also a first-class swordsman who has made the body of the favored person cocooned!
Not bad... Whether it was this encounter or Corinna herself, Ye He felt very satisfied, and today's trip was considered worthwhile.

On the other side, Corinna, who was in a happy mood because of her encounter with Ye He, had a rare lightness in her steps and even hummed an unknown tune slightly.

This small park was not far from where she lived. Passing by the bakery that had just opened for some reason, and passing through the alley at the back entrance of Jennifer's nursing home, Corinna quickly returned to the apartment building where she lived.

When she arrived at the door of her house and opened it, the little black cat suddenly meowed "meow" and ran into the door.

"Geppard?"

Corinna called the name Ye He gave the little black cat, and pushed the door in with some confusion.

"Meow!!! Ha!!!"

The little black cat Geppard stood at the door of the living room, making a threatening gesture towards a stranger who appeared in Corinna's house.

With a stern look on her face, Corinna limped past the little black cat and stood in front of the stranger.

"Hey, Corinna, it seems like you're doing well lately?"

The man said hello to Corinna in a somewhat naughty manner.

"Roy..."

But Corinna didn't give him a good look, because she knew that every time this man appeared, nothing good would happen.

"Don't do this! Don't do this! I swear to you, this is the last time I appear in front of you, okay?"

The man named Roy seemed to sense Corinna's displeasure. He waved his hand in fear, stood up, and slowly walked to Corinna.

"Snapped."

Then he slapped Corinna with his backhand, causing Corinna to fall to the ground.

"Meow!!!"

The little black cat jumped up protectively and bit Roy, but Roy grabbed the back of his neck and pinched it.

"Haha, does this cat look like you before?"

"Let go of it..."

For some reason, Corinna didn't dare to fight back when Roy was violently attacking her. Even when the little black cat fell into Roy's hands, she didn't attack him.

"Haha, don't worry..." Roy shook the kitten in his hand at Corinna who was lying on the ground. He took out a photo from his arms, threw it to Corinna, and then told Corinna: :
"This is your last "debt", hey, I don't understand why the Lord would let you go so easily. In short, the Lord said, kill this guy and your "debt" will be paid off, oh, Let me play with this little guy first, I hope it won’t starve to death after being hungry for a whole day, haha.”

After saying that, Roy left Corinna's house with the struggling little black cat Jeppard.

Geppard was taken away by him, and Corinna trembled involuntarily when she realized this.

Debt...the last debt?
Pay it off quickly... kill the target quickly... redeem Jeppard quickly...

Corinna's sanity was still there, she cleared her thoughts, and then picked up the photos on the ground.

When she saw clearly what the person in the photo looked like, she froze on the spot, and her eyes gradually became hollow.

Her left hand holding the photo dropped weakly, letting the photo fall on the floor of the living room.
