A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 61. Chapter 61

When Fataya walked out of the dilapidated cabin, he looked up. The slums were spread out with tattered cloths, and there were scattered baffles. The sun couldn’t get in here, and the whole place looked very gloomy.

Staying in this kind of place for a long time does make you feel bad.

She thought, and then she found that the child hadn’t come out yet. Turning her head to see, the child was putting the large piece of malachite into the bag, and it seemed that she was going to take it away.

The boy stood by and watched, his lips squirmed, but after all he didn’t say anything, he lowered his head with a sad expression on his face.

“This kid is doing this to protect you.”

Fataya stood at the door and said, “Such a valuable thing, even if the fragments are left here, if those people see it when they come again, you and your mother will be dead.”

“…I know.” The boy lowered his head deeply and said, “Really, I’m sorry.”

Garland glanced at him and said, “Say yes, your mother is cured, so you can go to the city guard by yourself.”

After speaking, he slapped the little bag and ran to Fataya, reaching out and handing it to her.

“Sister, here it is, hold it for me.”

Fataya grumbled, touched his head, and took the bag of malachite fragments. Then, she took the child in one hand and left the broken house in Muzha that was almost smashed.

Not far away, Fataya couldn’t help but ask.

“Aren’t you afraid of him running away?”

Gallan shook his head.

“His mother’s illness is very serious. He can risk stealing things for his mother, so he will definitely not leave his mother and run away by himself.”

“That’s true.”

The female knight nodded.

The child who was holding her hands lowered his head in thought, then looked up and looked around. In the slum shrouded in shadows, his golden eyes looked particularly bright.

Then, Gallan raised his head and tugged Fataya’s hand.

“big sister.”

The child’s voice was soft and sweet, and the female knight squatted before him with a smile.

“Huh? What’s the matter? Are you hungry? Big sister will take you to eat delicious food~”

“Do you have time?”

“Yes, of course~”

“Then you walk with me here, OK?”

“what?”

“I want to ask more to see if this is the case with other people.”

“Huh? But…”

“Can’t it?”

The child’s beautiful big eyes like amber jewels flickered at her, with an expression of expectation, that look was so lethal that Fataya couldn’t bear it.

She sighed.

“What’s your name?”

“Gal.”

“Gal, do you think they are pitiful, do you want to help them?”

“Yeah.” Gallan nodded, “King Camos…er…” He almost said the word’brother’, and he choked before continuing.

“It was clearly to help these poor people to give such an order, but it made them worse. It must be because some people did something wrong.” He said, “If you do something wrong, you must find a way to correct it.”

“Gal, you are a good boy.”

Fataya said, touching Garlan’s head, “But you are still young, and you don’t know how powerful the people who did it wrong. Even if you know the facts, you can’t do anything.”

Just like her, even if she knew it, she couldn’t do anything about it.

Besides…

“What’s more, those people are just untouchables.”

The female knight said, her tone was an understatement, of course.

If slaves, as the private property of the nobles, still allow the nobles to shelter one or two, then the untouchables will not care about their life or death at all.

Untouchables are the humble and lowly existence of this country like weeds.

They were born with sins, so they were punished by the gods and were born as untouchables.

Gallan smiled, her eyes curled up like crescent moons, making the child’s face with a baby fat look more and more cute.

“It’s fun.”

He grinned and said, “I have never met a pariah, big sister, can you play more with me here? I don’t dare to play here alone.”

The child tilted his head to look at her, shook her hand gently, as if acting like a baby.

The appearance of looking at her with his little head up and big eyes open, and the little hand holding her, is so cute, it suddenly made Fataya’s heart soft.

Who can refuse such a cute child’s acting like a baby?

never mind.

she thinks.

What a child knows, probably because he has never encountered such thrilling things and found it fun, and he has never encountered untouchables who are a little curious about their lives.

Thinking about this, Fataya nodded.

Next, she was dragged by the child and wandered around the slums. Garlan is almost like a young deer Sahuan, running around, taking her from time to time into those dilapidated houses that look poor or seem to have been smashed recently, facing curiously. The people in the room asked this and that.

Most of the poor untouchables are timid and timid people. Seeing Garlan being followed by a city gate guard, one by one was terribly scared, and Garlan said whatever he asked. Honestly, he didn’t dare to take a mouthful. , Dare not conceal the slightest.

It didn’t take long for Gallan to listen to some important things at random.

Fataya sometimes couldn’t help asking a few more questions next to her. Although she felt that these were untouchables, the tragic experience of these people still made her natural sympathy as a woman rise.

Thinking of what happened to these untouchables in the future, she couldn’t help sighing.

Although untouchables live in distress, they are still free at any rate. As soon as it is reformed here, those powerful people instruct thugs to come over and force debts. I am afraid that all the untouchables here will break their families and become slaves whose lives and deaths are controlled by others.

The female knight sighing in her heart did not notice the thoughtful look of the child who was walking by her hand.

Collect a little more information so that you can go back and tell Brother Wang.

Gallan thought so.

Fataya also didn’t notice, the behavior of her and Garlan inquiring around also fell in the eyes of some caring people.

In the dark corner, the tall man who broke into the boy’s home not long ago stared at Fataya with gloomy eyes like a lizard.

He naturally doesn’t care about that child. In his opinion, the female knight is leading this matter. She asks about it so much, not knowing what she wants to do.

“Go, report to the master, saying that the female knight Fataya has been inquiring about news in the slum.”

When the man finished speaking, a strong man behind him nodded, turned and walked away quickly.

Soon, the news reached the Kabei Money Company. Of course, the real power behind the scenes would not easily show up. Therefore, a lower-level aristocrat who was the front-controller of Kabei Money Bank and also a distant relative of the Chief Secretary received this news, and suddenly became furious.

“Which one who doesn’t have eyes dare to oppose us?”

You know, it is not only the Chief Secretary who participated in this feast, but there are also several extremely powerful presences in the royal city.

They intertwined into a spider web, deceiving the top and the bottom, and joined hands to block the sight of Wang and the people around Wang, wanting to eat this piece of fat together.

A small city gate guard dared to take care of this kind of meddling—it’s a guts!

Must teach that woman a tough lesson!

…………

……………………

It was almost evening, and the slums were extremely gloomy even at noon. By this time, they became even more gloomy.

The winding path is like an open spider web, it is so cold that the end of each place is blurred, only the endless darkness can be seen.

The skinny untouchable eyes shrank silently in the corner, and some scumbags were making noise and noisy unscrupulously here, and if nothing happened, they would bully the weak ones.

At this time, a pitch-black boot stepped into this muddy road.

The black-haired boy looked around, the air faintly smelling of rubbish piled up everywhere.

“…It’s a familiar taste.”

Huimos murmured to himself.

This kind of atmosphere, this place, the atmosphere of this garbage gathering place, is like a stinky water ditch where only rats and bed bugs can gather, exuding a rotten and fishy smell.

He grew up in this stinking ditch, and now he is back here again.

However, the child is not suitable for staying in such a dirty place.

Huimos thought.

He had to find Garlan as soon as possible.

Just when he discovered that Garlan was missing, the little fat man who wanted to help the female officer or the knight also ran back, and the two bumped into each other. The little fat guy who was stared at by Huimos was so frightened that he hurriedly said everything. Huimos didn’t say a word, and decided to come out and retrieve Garlan by himself.

In order to avoid being known about Garlan’s sneaking out of the palace, he would be punished. He also asked the little fat man to continue to pretend to be Garlan and lie on the bed.

Therefore, he had to take Garlan back before dinner.

Thinking about it this way, the boy’s gaze was cast on several little ruffians who were laughing not far away.

In the smelly water ditch, the most well-informed is naturally the mouse living here.

Those few young people who were scornful and not good at first glance were looking at the stranger who suddenly entered the slum. His eyes were on his decent clothes and scattered accessories. It’s full of greed and calculations.

Seeing that the young man’s gaze turned towards them, they no longer concealed it, and walked over to the fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered in their eyes with a smile.

“Little guy, this is not the place where young masters like you come to live.”

The leader laughed and said, “Come on, get acquainted, this is brother’s site, little brother, if you pay me enough protection money, brother will let you go, otherwise…”

He chuckled twice, and several people around him who also showed malicious smiles had surrounded Huimos.

“Give me the purse, and this, this.”

The man pointed to Heimos’ golden yellow fluorite earrings and the exquisitely carved sterling silver armbands, and motioned to his companions to peel off these valuable accessories. Although it is not a very valuable thing, it can still be exchanged for some money and things for them to have fun for a period of time.

“Heh, young master, if you don’t want to suffer, you’d better listen to our boss obediently.”

The man standing on the left side of Huimos smiled strangely, and as soon as he reached out his hand, he grabbed him.

Before the man’s outstretched hand touched Hiemos, he was caught.

“Why, you are a kid, why do you want to resist?”

When the young man dared to resist, the leader became angry. He wanted to threaten the young man with a few words, and suddenly heard a scream from his companion.

Accompanied by the screams, there was a cracking sound of fracture.

The boy who seemed to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old actually crushed his companion’s wrist with his hands in front of them.

Everyone was startled and then angry.

“You fucking dare to fight back!”

“I killed you–”

They swooped up at the teenager with their fists.

At this moment, the young man raised his eyes, and his golden red eyes glanced at the leading young man faintly.

The man was so excited that he suddenly yelled.

“stop!”

He stopped his companion who wanted to do it, and then, bending over and laughing with Hui Moss, he said: “Misunderstanding, it’s all misunderstanding, I don’t know that you are your own person, otherwise we would definitely not dare to do this. Things come.”

“I want you to help me to find out if there is a female city guard who came here with a child in the afternoon, where are they now?”

The young man said that no matter whether the young man acted fiercely at first or now he behaves humbly, his expression is faint and he can’t see any emotions.

After speaking, he threw a silver bullion to the leader.

“This is the deposit, if I find someone, I will give you the rest.”

“No problem, wrap it on our brother, and I’ll find it for you right away!”

The man laughed and said, holding the silver nugget, and seeing the young man walk away and sprint away from here, he was greatly relieved.

But his companion was not convinced.

“Boss, what are you talking about, what is your own person?”

“Yeah, why let go of that kid, that’s a fat sheep.”

“My hands were broken by that kid–”

“Okay, it’s just a broken hand, it’s not bad that you can save your life.”

Interrupting the complaints of his companions, the man whispered, “That kid…don’t look down on him, his eyes…the eyes…”

He paused, remembering the look in the boy’s eyes just now, like the cold vertical pupils of a poisonous snake lurking in the dark.

A glance is chilling.

That is the look that only people who have survived in the dark world will have, and it is not something that little rascals and hooligans like them can provoke.

“…Damn, provoke a fiend.” He slapped his comrades away with an annoying slap, and said, “Hurry up and find someone, contact more people, and look for it.”

…………

Although he felt that the collection was not enough, looking at the sky, Gallan could only regretfully drag the female knight away.

After all, if you postpone it any longer, the incident of your sneaking has been exposed, and there may be a mess in the palace. I only hope that Taer can help him hide it well before he goes back.

Then he began to ponder again.

How to get rid of this female knight who said to send him back is another big problem.

While pondering, he followed the female knight back to the entrance where he had just come. The tied horse was still standing there obediently, and saw the master come over and snorted.

Fataya touched the horse’s neck, untied the reins, and was about to turn around to hug Garlan on the horse’s back. Suddenly, there was a sound of horse hooves, and a group of people came from the front and surrounded her.

The leader is a young man riding a horse, with raised eyebrows, always looking down from top to bottom when looking at people, his chin is slightly raised, with a domineering aura.

The clothes are gorgeous, the waist is decorated with a golden waist, and the outside is covered with delicately embroidered tassel shawls.

“Fataya.” He unceremoniously pointed at the female knight with a whip embroidered with gold stripes, and shouted her name, “What are you doing here?”

“Gore.” Fataya frowned and replied, “You are not qualified to control where I go, right?”

Gore sneered.

“I’m naturally not interested in where you go, but if you want to trouble me and cut my money, I naturally have to take care of it.”

To cut people’s wealth is like killing one’s parents.

The above-mentioned major forces joined forces to cover up the slum affairs, and if they were exposed, their financial avenues would be cut off.

Therefore, they will never allow any possibility of leaking this matter.

“Fataya, for the sake of our long acquaintance, I warn you, don’t be nosy, or you will kill yourself.”

“Gore, you are just a small character.”

The female knight angered.

This Gore was also a low-level nobleman who was similar to her family, and he dared to put this arrogant and instructive look in front of her.

“Doing such a dirty thing, afraid of others saying it?”

“Hmph, don’t you know the adult standing behind my little character?”

Gore sneered, “Do you have the guts to offend that lord?”

Fataya’s face was ugly, but he didn’t refute it anymore.

So Gore laughed more and more frantically. Since his parents took refuge in that adult to do things for him, let alone ordinary nobles, even aristocrats with a little status dare not easily offend their family.

Being held up high by the crowd, his mentality has already swelled infinitely, and naturally he will not put Fataya, who is the mere chief of the gate guard, in his eyes.

“Fataya, I’m here to teach you a lesson today. You’d better get to know yourself and guard your gate well. It’s best to leave it alone. Otherwise, it won’t be something that can be solved in a single fight next time. .”

Gore finished threateningly, and then waved his horse whip.

“Come on, teach her a good lesson.” He said coldly, “I will bear all the consequences!”

The group of family guards he brought with him rushed forward, and as soon as they swarmed, the person in the front stabbed Fataya with a single shot.

Fataya’s expression changed abruptly. He raised his hand and pulled out the two short barrels on his back. With a click, the two short barrels joined together to form a silver gun.

With a clang, she held the long|gun that had rushed at her, and then picked it back with her backhand, and immediately picked the guard off the horse.

She danced the silver spear like water, and instantly pushed back three or four cavalry.

The female knight’s martial arts is naturally very powerful if she can hold the post of the city gate guard as a female. But two fists are hard to beat four hands, and it is already very difficult to be besieged by everyone. She has to protect the children next to her, and she can’t use her hands and feet for a while.

On the opposite side, Gore rode on the horse triumphantly watching Fataya’s embarrassed look, feeling extremely good. He had long seen this woman not pleasing to his eyes. Women should serve men honestly. What martial arts should they learn? Hey, he actually got the official position of a military commander.

Garlan, who was guarded by Fataya behind him, was in a bad mood, and the young man in front of him was probably one of the running dogs behind the black hand.

This guy just wants to jump out at this time, he must not be able to rush back in time.

Wait for me.

The little prince thought depressed.

When I get back, I will find Brother Wang to arrest you.

He was thinking about it, and suddenly out of the corner of his eye he saw a long|gun pierced diagonally toward the female knight’s thigh.

However, the female knight was gritting her teeth and holding the two people in front of her, and she had no time to take care of it.

Seeing that the tip of the spear was about to pierce Fataya’s thigh, Galan suddenly pulled out the dagger hidden in his boots.

With a bang, the tip of the gun slammed into the blade of the snow-white dagger, igniting a series of sparks.

Gallan only felt that his arms were numb. If he hadn’t used the force-relief skills that Sheemur taught him, he would definitely not be able to stop the blow with the strength of a child.

However, he just breathed a sigh of relief, when the man on the horse saw that his gun had been stopped by a child, he was immediately furious, and raised his long |

Although it was not at the tip of the gun, the barrel of the gun was drawn heavily on Garlan’s body, and the small body was knocked out in an instant, hitting the wall behind.

“Gal!”

The female knight was so angry that she swears out of control.

“You fucking big man actually hit a child! His face was chewed by a dog?”

She fought the person next to her, and slammed her backhand on that person’s thigh, splashing blood.

Then, she smashed the people around, rushed to pick Garlan up, and quickly turned on her horse. After several more blows, she still kept her head down to protect the child in her arms. That’s it. Rushed out from the crowd.

“Follow me all–”

Gore shouted, pulling the reins one by one and chasing them up.

“I must let her know the fate of offending me today.”

The fight at the entrance to the slum finally stopped, and the people around had already hid far away, shivering and daring not to approach.

In the far corner, a dirty big boy watched the group of people go away, and immediately turned around and quickly got into the alley, intending to report the letter.

Found it, the female knight with a blond child.

He thought happily.

The bonus goes to him.
