Ademisor said nothing today and was unwilling to go out.

"Fate told me that it is not appropriate to go out today." He closed his eyes and shook his head firmly at the people outside the door. "Please let me rest for a day. I want to write a letter to Mrs. Norma."

"Okay then, you write the application and I'll pass it on to Miss Maria."

Sean scratched his blue hair, and actually pulled out a pink bow. Thinking that it was already noon, and he had been swaying around with a bow all morning, this 1.8-meter thick man couldn't help but grin. one red.

While thinking that it must be the youngest daughter who used her hair to practice with the doll while he was not paying attention, he carefully smoothed out the wrinkles and put it in his pocket: "Today we are going to expand our processing plant, it is all hard work, you Those with small arms and legs really can’t help much. There are too many people, Gavin said that it’s not easy to work with living corpses during the day, so he let me go, and he will bring his subordinates to help at night.”

"I've already written it." Ademisor took out a note from the language textbook and handed it to Sean, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Your path to destiny is really miraculous." The wind favored person marveled, "Can you predict when I will win the lottery?"

"I'm not good enough," said Ademisor honestly. "You don't seem to have much luck with your money lately."

"Oh! You kid!" Before being frightened, Ademisor quickly closed the door.Sean stood outside the door and cursed angrily and amusingly, then walked away muttering.

At this time, Maria was in the processing factory, and bag after bag of rough bread was shipped from her own bakery, as a lunch reward for the employees who had worked hard for a month today. The usual work meals are the most common ones that cannot be eaten without water. black bread.There are several lathes and workbenches for grinding metal in the two workshops. There is a strong smell of kerosene everywhere. There are unopened boxes and parts to be processed today in the corners.

After being processed by the workers, the semi-finished products will be sent to other factories with long-term cooperation, and the monthly order is enough to pay the employees more than half a pound of weekly wages.The men, women and children in the factory wore burqas to prevent oil stains, took off their rough thick gloves, and gorged themselves on today's noon bread with the self-service tea in the vat.People are walking or sitting, talking and laughing loudly, looking lively and full of vigor and vitality.

After eating, they will go to the two newly rented factories to clean up the sundries and arrange the workshops, which will double the size of the entire factory.

The expansion of the factory means more job opportunities, more orders and a more stable salary, so everyone is smiling, looking forward to a better life in the future, and even dare to quietly imagine a weekly salary of 1 pound.

Therefore, the processing factory recruited dozens of permanent workers, many of whom were female workers who had been laid off when the textile factory introduced machines.The machines made them uneasy, but the new job somewhat smoothed the gloom of recent days.

Maria was sitting on two layers of boxes, eating a simple hamburger she made herself.She gave herself a cup of light tea with the tea leaves that she was usually reluctant to drink, savoring it carefully, her movements were very casual and relaxed, not ladylike at all.

The workers passing under the box greeted her, and she greeted her back one by one, with a smile on her face.The sun at noon today is warm, and it makes everyone feel at ease and relaxed, and the stuffed stomach adds a little bit of happiness.After waiting for a few minutes, a group of tall blue seaweed appeared in the crowd in the distance. The seaweed gradually approached, came to the factory, and came in front of Maria.

"Admisol is on leave, and I won't be here to help today!"

As soon as Xiao En came in, he said loudly, waving the leave note in his hand: "Miss Maria, have you started working?"

"You are here, let's start! You are our strong man!"

Sean was embarrassed: "I've never beat you by arm wrestling..."

Maria couldn't help laughing, then stood up from the box, and said loudly to all the employees in the factory: "Everyone get ready, after a 10-minute break, we will expand the factory according to the arranged plan! Assemble the machines Technicians, as soon as you install the machine, we will start working immediately!"

Last night, Klein sneaked into Dr. Allen's dream, saw the tower and Will Auceptin hidden in it, and took away the thousand paper cranes left by him.When he listened to Dr. Allen's nightmares in the club, especially when he saw that he took out the thousand paper cranes that were dropped by the Nighthawks and were uglier than the ones he folded, Klein took a lot of effort to hold back. I want to laugh.

After bidding farewell to the frowning Doctor Allen, the next day, Klein accompanied Mike, a reporter from the "Daily Observer", into the East District to interview the rescued girls.

In the face of a full £1 interview fee, no one refused, even some girls who had been tortured.

Although the police have made a conclusion on the Capin case, there are always many journalists and detectives who are active or want to catch people's attention and believe that there is something hidden in it. Therefore, private interviews and tabloid rumors abound, and it is not impossible to mention it.In this interview, Capin's crimes are one focus, and the current situation of those girls is another. The former makes people angry, and the latter makes people feel heavy.

Daisy is actually quite lucky. She can go to work immediately after returning home, and she can get food in exchange for her own labor. No more than one-third of the rescued people like her are those who have some savings at home. Their situation allows them, who have been physically and mentally traumatized, to not be busy for a while, but to patiently look for suitable jobs.

I heard that her elder sister, Freya, participated in the recruitment of Miss Maria's expansion factory, but unfortunately she was not selected.

"I thought you'd get some kind of compensation."

Mike blurted out, and after he finished speaking, he himself fell into a deep silence first.

The other two-thirds of the rescued had to run around in order to survive. In the case of a large number of unemployed textile workers, they often could only find some temporary jobs with low wages.

Some people can squeeze into Miss Maria's expanded processing plant, but those lucky ones who are in urgent need of help are only a few hundred people in total, which is a drop in the bucket for the unemployed in the East Side.

Those whose parents, siblings and sisters have never been unemployed are okay, at least they can help each other and barely fill their stomachs, while those whose family situation is not so optimistic have already embarked on the road of street girls.

Never seeming to be rescued, they sell their bodies once, perhaps just for some food.

This made Mike become as silent as last time. He didn't come back to himself until he left the East District when it was dark, and thanked Klein: "Sherlock, thanks to your help, otherwise I would definitely be killed by those hooligans and gangsters today." blackmail."

"Isn't that why you hired me?" Klein smiled politely without any complacency.

With the previous advice, the old Kohler and Liv's family did not disclose that he helped find people for free, especially Daisy, who was very smart, when Mike asked them if they knew any special people, she directly answered "Mr. Reporter and Mr. Detective." ".

Mike nodded habitually, and walked in silence for a while.

Before getting into the carriage, he suddenly let out a sigh of relief: "I would like to appeal in this report, calling on the government to take out Capin's real estate and set up a special rescue fund, and use the annual income to steadily help these rescued people. Girls, help others who have been hurt by Capim and give them a chance to move out of their current situation."

"Although Capin's safe has been wiped out along with the mansion, his greatest wealth is in the purchased real estate. These, these should be obtained illegally."

Klein listened carefully, took a deep look at Mike, and praised sincerely: "You are the best reporter I have ever seen."

He also said: "In fact, donating to established foundations and charitable organizations can save a lot of time, and they are more experienced. For example, Maria from the Ernst Foundation, we have all seen it, from various behaviors. Look, she should be a good leader."

Although the relationship between the Foundation and the Aurora Society is confusing, according to my observation, Maria is indeed a good person and worthy of trust.

"I'll consider the offer."

"There are still many reporters like me. But you are right. There are always some idealists in this world. Maybe we are all like them." Mike sighed.

After speaking, he paid Klein the employment fee of 10 pounds, took off his hat and waved it.

After watching the reporter get into the taxi, Klein was going to take public transportation in another direction to go home.It was getting dark, and the appointed time was approaching.At this time, Mike suddenly opened the car window and asked with a teasing smile, "Sherlock, I'm not the only reporter you know, am I?"

Klein was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Guess."

Crowmon, wearing a flannel peaked hat, stood on Edward's shoulders, feeling a strange tension.

In the memory of this group of Amon, I have participated in various banquets, visited many times among nobles, and there are countless dances. After all, I was one of the great nobles who supported the Tudor Empire in the Fourth Epoch.But Amon felt that compared to those records in the distant past, the things to do today are more exciting and interesting, because this time he is not parasitic on anyone, he is not playing anyone, he is not even being himself.

He wants to be a...human crow.

"Gah."

Is this too risky?When the simple wooden door in front of him opened, revealing the smiling face of a young man with black hair, brown eyes and beard, Amon couldn't help but hide beside Edward's sideburns and let out a cry.

"fine."

He believed that they had all seen the thin gray mist covering the young man, carrying a faint aura of a high-level spiritual world that made Amon want to get close to him and was a little scared, and his own sealed Extraordinary characteristics and mystic connections were slightly active some.His hands were itchy, eager to steal, and he successfully stole the one-pound banknote from Klein's pocket.

Klein didn't notice.

"Bring so much?" After receiving a large paper bag from Edward, he found that the paper bag was heavy and filled with all kinds of packaged pastries and fruits. Klein was pleasantly surprised and a little embarrassed, "You are too kind, I thought it was just a normal meal."

"It's okay, I did it all by myself, and only spent money on raw materials."

Edward didn't take it seriously, and wanted to take off his coat after entering the house, but found that the fireplace was not turned on, and there was no charcoal fire in it, and there were almost no traces of use.He remembered that it was November now, and he looked at Klein with a surprised expression, so Klein looked away.

"That's it... It seems that what I should bring is not pastry, but hot pot. Let's save it for next time. Roselle likes it very much, and the spicy taste is also very suitable for the taste of Intis nobles, because they are all hunter."

"However, spices were expensive at that time, and they had to be transported from the southern continent together with peppers. It cost a lot, took a long time, and the output was very small. In terms of selling, the price was high, and almost all of them were reserved by nobles, so at that time It's a luxury food."

"Hotpot..." Klein clearly showed reminiscence, and then put the bag on the table regretfully, "But there is no electricity in this world, if you want to eat hotpot, you have to cook it on the cooking table and eat it at the same time."

Edward recalled: "No. Hot pot is very popular in Intis, and it is a status symbol. Just imagine, in the resplendent living room, under the high dome, gold sculptures and crystal lamps, the viscount and above Noble people gather together for extravagant banquets, and put caviar, deep-sea tuna, and the top wine in a certain adult's winery together in a steaming hot pot, and then let the servants cook all kinds of food in it reservedly , eating while laughing, and eating red pot together until tears flowed down my cheeks and tears. This is a rare gourmet gathering every month."

Klein thought about it hard, and he barely relied on the image above the gray fog and added a hundred million decorations to make up the resplendent palace. People with noble status just copied and pasted Miss Justice instead.

Then he discovered that the first thought that popped up was not "extravagance and waste", but "I can't even afford hot pot"...

The huge gap made Klein frown and bewildered for a while, then smiled, not paying much attention to it.It was almost time for lunch, and the two of them took out various foods from the bag together. The colorful pastries and food were packed in boxes similar to metal lunch boxes, which miraculously played the role of heat preservation and sealing. When Klein opened a box casually, Every now and then, he could smell the warm aroma coming to his face, which brought back his memories of sesame seed cakes and fried dough sticks and various morning teas, which made people's index fingers move.

After taking his seat, Edward unwrapped the meringue puff pastry, opened the preserved egg and lean meat porridge, and drank it slowly in a very elegant and reserved way. Klein, who was about to gobble it up, couldn't help raising his airs.

But after he straightened his back and ate for a while, he revealed his original shape, and started a happy dinner activity with shrimp dumplings in his left hand and seafood porridge in his right hand, eating sweet cakes in his mouth and looking at rice rolls in the distance.

The two abandoned the tradition of "not talking when eating, not talking when sleeping", and chatted while eating, from the life of the old days to the recent daily life.

Edward didn't pay too much attention to Klein, and this appropriate sense of distance also made Klein feel more comfortable. He was very good at interpersonal communication.Otherwise, even if he is the only fellow from the same village, he will soon have nothing to say if he looks up and down every day, not to mention that they are very different in every aspect.Klein wasn't worried about what troubles he would bring to the other party. Instead, he occasionally worried about whether he would be affected by the mysticism of the demon angel, especially during the period of investigating the demon dog.

Edward watched him unknowingly revealed a lot of information in the communication—maybe it wasn’t that important to him—for example, the man named Allen had a tall tower in his dream, and there were silvery red eyes before. The giant snake, and the child named Will Auceptin was holding a wheel of fortune, and these things had already been reported to the Church of Evernight, so Klein took it as a special experience.

He is not stingy with knowledge: "You are right, Will is the name of the chairman of the "Life School", that is a Sequence 1 Mercury Snake, one sequence higher than me, it is best not to get involved s Choice. "

"And the devil dog..."

"The people behind it are indeed still lurking."

He loves to eat these old food.Amon secretly observed how much this human being related to Origin Castle came to eat.There are several pastries he likes on the small plate in front of him, and he steals something he wants to eat from time to time.

There is also a desire to communicate.Amon thought.

It is also related to Origin Castle.He lowered his head and took two sips of the fermented glutinous rice balls. Feeling a little too sweet, he quickly took a sip of water.

"By the way, recently..." Klein's itinerary for the past two days is inseparable from the Eastern District, and there are also rumors about the Eastern District being big or small in newspapers and Extraordinary circles.When Klein thought about Capin's matter, he was still a little curious about what happened, but then felt that the other party might not care about this aspect, so his words turned into another sentence,

"Do you know anything about the Ernst Foundation?"

With everyone's efforts, I got stuck, haha ​​(.

I took the time to look at the book review website. I was prepared for the polarization of the evaluation of this article, but some comments are really mysterious.

Let me share the one that I think is the most amazing:
"The author designed a hanger that is stronger than the original one."
