Chapter 17
Hearing the little girl's stomach growling, I couldn't bear it anymore.

"Waiting for me here?"

"Oh!"

Ziman withdrew from the door, and about half a cup of tea, brought in a meal and placed it in front of the little girl, signaling the little girl to eat with her eyes.

The little girl was stunned for a moment, and said uncertainly, "Is this for me?"

Ziman pretended to be cold and said: "Could it be that I get up in the middle of the night to make food for myself? I don't have this habit."

The little girl pounced on it, and without thinking about finishing a mouthful, she stuffed another mouthful into her mouth.Looking at Ziman from time to time, tears suddenly flowed down the dirty little face like a dam that opened the gate.With a vague sob in his mouth, he said, "Thank you...sister..."

Deep in her eyes, Ziman seemed to see the shadow of happiness.

At this moment, Ziman's heart finally burst, and the tenderness fiercely tore up the pretended coldness.Lovingly stroking the little girl's head, she said softly, "Eat slowly, don't choke."

In her previous life, she used the money she got from killing people to support those poor children, because she was one of them.She didn't want those children to go astray like she did.

This scene is so familiar, it seems that at a certain moment in the previous life, she also treated a child like this.

The girl finished her meal in a hurry, licked her lips with her small tongue, and looked at Ziman without fear, and said, "My name is Zi'er, sister, you are a good person."

Ziman laughed, and said: "Silly girl, you can't tell who is good from who is bad after a meal in this world. What about your family? Why did you come out to steal things by yourself?"

Zi'er's eyes turned red, and she said sadly: "My parents died in the war, and I am the only one left. If I don't steal, I will starve to death."

At this point, the reddish eye circles began to shed tears again.

Ziman felt a pain in her heart, hugged Zi'er in her arms, and comforted softly: "Zi'er doesn't cry, just follow my sister from now on!"

At dawn, Yuxuan knocked on Ziman's door.

"Miss Ziman, are you up yet? We're going on our way."

The door opened from the inside, and a young girl in purple clothes came out, which made him startled, thinking that he had gone by the wrong way.

"My sister is washing up. Young master, wait a while and come out soon."

Then he closed the door again.

After a while, Ziman came out with Zier, and seeing Yuxuan cast a puzzled look, Ziman explained: "This is my new younger sister, her name is Zier. Come with us." To explain, he took Zi'er downstairs.

Yu Xuan smiled helplessly, and didn't care, it didn't matter if there was one more person.

As soon as the carriage drove out of the inn, a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper hurried to Yu Xuan and whispered in his ear.Yu Xuan's expression changed, and he turned his horse's head and ran towards a dark alley.

Ziman didn't know what to do, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yu Xuan smiled and said, "Just now my people said that they found a group of black-armored warriors at the gate of the city, and a man wrapped in a black robe. I guess it's the bronze-masked guard of Huangquan Road. But don't worry. , just relying on those little guys, I still can't catch this young master."

Speaking of a secret door appeared in the dark alley, it turned out to be connected to a tunnel.

"This tunnel leads directly to the outside of the city, but we have to abandon the carriage."

Without saying a word, Ziman took the lead and walked in with Zi'er.

The tunnel is very long, and a torch appears on the wall at every short distance for lighting. Obviously, people often come here.
