Chapter 4 Activities under the Darkness
Soon, the guards who were doing patrol came to the scene of the accident. After explaining the causes and consequences, the goblin merchant was taken away for illegally selling dangerous goods.
What awaits it must be the disputes in court and the entertainment time in prison.
While watching himself, Green breathed a sigh of relief, then took Loniti's little hand and walked towards the direction of home.
Just as he passed by a small stall selling jewelry, Loniti suddenly stopped and looked at a headdress without moving.
Helplessly, Green followed her gaze and saw a pink ribbon with diamond-shaped glass on both sides lying quietly in the middle of the stall.
Looking at the ribbon, then looking at the pair of star eyes of Loniti, Green asked the price with a bitter face.
"What? Ten copper coins!"
Green tried to lower his voice and shouted, thinking that this thing was a bit too expensive.
I knew that black bread was just a piece of life-saving thing, and a small ribbon, would it cost ten black bread?
Green hesitated and planned to make up his mind to pull Ronitie away, but Ronitie took out a small purse from his arms, counted ten copper coins and placed them in front of the boss, and then happily took away the silk belt.
OK! My sister has her own small vault!
Green rolled his eyes and decided not to ask where she got so much money, just hoped that she would not waste it on this expensive jewelry again.
And Loniti seemed to be satisfied, but she looked at the ribbon in her hand happily and did not make any moves to buy anything, which made Green breathe a sigh of relief.
Soon, the two of them would arrive at home, and it was completely dark, so Green lit a inferior candle to obtain limited light.
Although the monthly salary of the guards is not too generous, they generally distribute some cheap daily necessities every month so that they don’t have to spend more on it.
With the faint candlelight, Loniti stroked her soft short hair and planned to bring the silk to tie it.
However, because her hair was just as long as her shoulders, it was very difficult to tie it up. In the end, Green helped her tie her short ponytail.
After changing her hairstyle, Bai Ru'er is less weak and more capable, but she feels like a hero among girls, but she is just a child.
Looking at the cracked mirror and looking again, Loniti smiled with satisfaction. She felt that the pink ribbon was very compatible with her.
Every girl has a pink heart~
It was almost time to go to bed, and Green then remembered a serious problem...
There are not enough beds at home!
Although Green's cottage is small, it has a living room, kitchen and two bedrooms. However, because only one person lives alone, one room has a bed and a work table, and the other room has a wardrobe and a mirror.
Although there are three sets of bedding and pillows, there is only one single bed in the bed.
Well, my sister is still young anyway, should I squeeze into a bed?
Green thought this way, so he planned to ask Loniti for his opinion.
However, as soon as he turned his head, he found that Loniti was looking at her with a perverted look.
OK, she doesn't want to...
Green scratched his head, and suddenly he realized that he had thought less before. One more person at home is not just an extra mouth, bed, bedding, and clothing expenses. Moreover, children love to get sick, and it costs a lot of money to see a doctor...
Green once again regretted that he was overwhelmed with sympathy at the time and brought Loniti home. And it seemed that the loopholes in the funds could not be made up for a day or two.
Forget it, I have brought Loniti back. Can I drive her out again?
Green sighed, stood up and took out a set of bedding from a large wooden box in the corner of the bedside room and spread it on the floor.
"You sleep in bed tonight!"
Green said to Loniti, then stretched and lay on the paved floor, intending to fall asleep early.
As a guard, he has a duty work every day, so he needs to go to the barracks to report early before leaving and then go to the substitute when he is patrolling.
Loniti blinked, slowly walked to the edge of the bed, climbed onto the bed, looked like she was about to sleep, and blew out the inferior candles.
Suddenly, the room was pitch black, and only the slightly dim moonlight shone through the window, bringing a little light.
Loniti lay on the bed, lowered her breathing and waited quietly.
After a while, Green's steady and slight snoring sounded. Loniti trembled for a moment, slowly lifted the quilt, and walked out quietly.
The wooden floor where rats would crunch when passing by was at Loniti's feet, but it seemed like it was mute and didn't say a word.
Soon, Loniti pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, making a little noise in the process, but did not wake Green up from his sleep.
Close the door and breathe the cold and fresh air at night with some mild moldy smell. Loniti breathed easily, then moved her muscles and bones.
When you are in a slum, who dares to sleep at night? Maybe you have just fallen asleep, but the next second you are wiped from your neck and can't wake up.
Although this is a much better security in the old city, Loniti still cannot immediately change her habit of hiding at night.
It’s very hard to pretend to be energetic during the day! No matter what happens at night, you have to go out and do it!
Slowly walking into the shadow of an alley and hiding his figure to avoid being discovered by the guards patrolling at night. Loniti quietly thought about where she should get some money back and treat it as her own living expenses.
Although Green regarded her as his sister, eating and drinking for free is not good, so he should do his part!
As for whether Green would accept it, it was considered an ill-gotten fortune, and Loniti didn't care about that much.
Wandering aimlessly on the streets, Loniti searched for the target she thought was suitable.
"Tread, step, step..."
At this time, the sound of the guards' metal boots walking on the ground came from the corner of the street. Loniti's face did not change and directly flashed into the shadow of the alley next to it.
The guards quickly walked over because during the day, Green accidentally told her that there were two guards patrolling at night. Basically, it took an hour and a half to see the second guard.
Loniti returned to the street and continued to find her target.
Soon, he found his goal for tonight - a shabby and dark cottage that looked uninhabited.
The cottage is located in a remote location, located at the end of an alley, and it looks like it is not a rich family.
Originally, Loniti planned to skip this house directly, but after seeing some things at the door of the cottage, she smiled and walked over.
…………
Speaking of which, Dell was also very depressed today. He was the boss of the teenagers who did no business on this street, but today he fell on a girl.
After all, I am a royal descendant, so it is a life force to do such a thing, but it is too embarrassing to be easily knocked down by the little girl and snatch it clean!
At this moment, he suddenly stood up on the chair, walked to the door vigilantly, pressed his ears on his side, and listened carefully.
Just now, he heard a faint sound of a bell keenly!
It was a trap set by myself at the door of my house, which was used to remind myself that someone had broken in.
Let me see how I can make this person who enters my uncle's house at will pay the price!
Dell gritted his teeth and thought.
