"All right! We came from the direction of Kyle Dick. We didn't eat or drink all day and night along the way. The younger son has had a fever for a long time..." A woman with tattered clothes and a muddy face was hissing. Exhausted, shouted at the silver-haired boy who was walking by. The latter seemed to have no response to the cry of blood and tears, and went straight to the woman's kneeling and kowtow, and walked to a weak old man aside.
"Well... the injury is almost healed. Let the nuns from the church bring me the medicine. After a day or two, you should be fine. After that, your old man and his family will go to the refuge to rest."
"Hmm...Thank you." The old man said weakly, and stood up with the support of the two hunters. There was a hint of timidity and hesitation in his eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it.
"I know... but this is the rule. Elderly and children without the ability and skills to work, as well as disabled people injured in the war, all have only half of the food ration. However, during the period of recuperating, this rule is not counted. After all, we don’t want to cause your injuries and illnesses to worsen because of chronic malnutrition and consume more medical resources.
The boy said with a smile,
So as long as you rest at ease, don’t worry about those for now.
"Why—" The women on the side saw the different treatment of the teenagers, and immediately began to cry loudly again, and the voice made the surrounding medical staff and other staff members who were doing other jobs look at.
"I said before-either honestly accept half of the ration, stay in the shelter and don't cause trouble, or take part in labor and use your own hands to get the rewards-you think you changed your clothes and then Put mud on your face and I can’t recognize you? Three days ago, didn’t you still say that you were a refugee from the Plains of Oloklos? Why did you suddenly change into Kyle? Dick man?"
"I..." The woman was speechless for a while, looking at the young man in surprise, speechless.
"Why, I didn't expect that this refuge is almost half full, can I still remember exactly who everyone is?" The boy sneered, "The law is the law-I have already given you a chance. Since you are not willing to obey—then I have to ask you to leave. Alan."
"Master Heliga, I am here." A tall man on the side saw this scene in front of him, regretful and helpless.
"Find this woman's children and drive them out now." Heliga said lightly. Then, Alan and the two hunters faithfully executed the order-dragging away the woman cursing loudly in front of them.
"..." A man and a woman who had just rushed over from the corner of the street had different expressions on their faces when they saw this scene. The man is the famous A-level guerrilla, "Zero Drive" Torval Landner, and the girl who is dressed in plain clothes and simple but still can hardly conceal her noble temperament is exactly what the Ereponia Empire belongs to today. The queen, Alfin Lazer Yanor.
"Your Royal Highness." Toval on the side saw the sad expression on Alfin's face and whispered.
"I understand...I understand. Although Heliga looks very cold and fierce, I also know that it is one of the principles that allows the entire refugee income to continue... But I didn't expect that the war... is so cruel It’s just less than a week, and it’s a border town far from the center of the war. It’s a scene like this... Before I, I had absolutely no idea about war, and the same is true for all kinds of things the country might suffer... …"
Toval did not speak. Yes, when did the pious Queen Elfing be so downhearted that she needed to hide in secret in this border town to escape the nobility? How could she have seen a real war? Now just the impact of the war on the surrounding areas has taught this innocent lady a good lesson.
"Even so... Isn't it a little too harsh?" Toval thought like this. How would you feel when His Highness Olibat was young when he saw this scene?
"That... Master Heliga!" A hurried shout interrupted Toval's thoughts. Alan, who had just been sent out by Heliga to execute the order, ran back now out of breath, "We found the woman's son, but..."
"But what?" Heliga stopped asking another old man's movements, and asked dissatisfiedly.
"But, we checked... the little boy is only three or four years old now, and he is indeed suffering from a high fever..." Alan said with a sorrowful expression, "We have also asked thoroughly, the woman was indeed Kai. People around Erdik, but during the Warcraft riots caused by the war, her husband unfortunately passed away. She originally wanted to go to the Orlos area to join her relatives, but was blocked by the leader of the Kruchin State army there. Stopped, tossing and tossing..."
"So, she really hadn't eaten anything for a day and night before?" Heliga frowned.
"Yes...because she said that her original job was weaving, and she didn't know anything else, and we didn't need her here, so she... stayed in the shelter all the time. And because her son's illness was too serious, she took all the food in her hands, plus half of what her son should have rationed... but it was still not enough, so she was excited for a while and just..."
"Come to lie to me." Heliga interrupted Alan calmly and firmly, leaving the latter stunned on the spot.
"..." The other refugees who heard these on the side also showed complicated expressions. Most of them were sympathetic and regretful, and a few were expressionless, and a few even showed smirking smiles.
"That... Master Helika. If they are really driven away... There is nowhere to go, no food, no medicine... They will really die in the wilderness." Alan was almost begging. Up.
"We really don't have a place for her to work here." Heliga said, "Even if she is allowed to stay, she will still be able to get half of the ration as an unemployed person-if her son could not survive. Then continue this situation, and it will still be the same."
"In that case..." Alan gritted her teeth, "I will give her half of my ration until her son recovers, how about?"
"Don't be stupid." Heliga reprimanded lightly. "You have to work with me all day every day. Without sufficient nutrition, how do you work?"
"I...In short, I will never let your expectations down." Alan hesitated and said.
"...If your sympathy is overflowing regardless of occasion and timing, I think it would be good to make you hungry for a day or two." Heliga sneered, "Okay, then--"
"Master!" Alan suddenly said loudly, revealing full of unwillingness in his tone, "Why are you—have not seen you in a few years, how did you become like this—"
"Mr. Alan..." The colleagues on the side immediately uttered comfort.
"Oh..." Toval, who was watching, also sighed helplessly. "The two people... just have different ideas, but neither is wrong... It's just reality and ideals, and sometimes this and that happen. Conflict."
"Well, stop both of you. Heliga, Alan is right, you are indeed a little fascinated, and you are on your head." A faint female voice came from behind Heliga, passing it on his head. Knocked on, "Alan, what Heilija said is correct. During the war, rationing and other things are limited. If there is no effective and strict compliance with laws and regulations, there will be no way to maintain it for long- You can’t be unclear, can’t you? It’s not that Heliga has become indifferent now, but that he has to do it—because he is now an agent of the lord.
"I..." Alan was dull.
"However, what you did just now, I still like it very much." The visitor-a petite girl with silver hair in a cool dress, showed a nice smile, "So although the law does have similar regulations-it didn't say that it could not be Give your share to others."
"Miss Fei, do you think..." Alan vaguely guessed what Fei meant-the lover whom the young master met after a long time seems to be a hunting soldier. It is hard to imagine that such a person will be able to win the shelter residents so quickly. Loves, "No, you don’t often perform patrol missions outside towns--"
"I take a vacation one day a week." Fei interrupted Alan slowly. "And the day of the folds happened to be today. Just now Heliga was right. Alan was busy with him every day. , Must not be dragged down on nutritional issues, so you can’t let it—and I, during the six-day mission, can’t let it. But at least today, I was resting in the town, and it was rare. I took a nap-if the consumption is not that big, I think, at least letting out the dinner, it should be fine."
"It's Miss Fei." A soldier beside Alan laughed. "Tomorrow I will also be on vacation-in this case, I will give them tomorrow's dinner too."
"I'm every Monday--"
"It's Friday—"
Immediately, there was a sound of discussion from refugees who had job skills and therefore participated in general work. They scrambled to express their willingness to give up half of the ration during the holidays. The noise was so loud that the mother who was embarrassed when he was brought back, and her face was ashamed when he heard Helija's words. Immediately on the spot, tears began to fall uncontrollably.
"After a long, long time, people's chattering discussions subsided. All of them, with a ritual look, looked at Heliga who said nothing, waiting for his final decision. "
He is the agent of the lord—according to the laws of the empire, the nobles have the right to interpret all local laws in the territory, which is only lower than the national constitution created by the royal family—if Heliga insists on implementing his previous laws, there is no People can stop it.
Fortunately, Heliga is not the kind of person who ignores everything for the sake of his own face. He did not obsessively do not understand, willful and reckless, but showed a hint of helplessness, but he was convinced with a wry smile: "You are all up to this point, can I say "no"? "
Cheers began to ring immediately around.
"You can do it." Heliga approached Alan in cheers, and patted him on the back lightly.
"Master, I'm sorry." Alan admitted honestly.
"Oh, it's okay, I also feel that in the past few days, Heliga has been tossed a little bit hard, and his personality has basically completely changed...You don't have to blame yourself too much." Fei also walked over at this moment.
"Oh... after the matter is over, I really want to find a chance to rest with him for a month or two." Heliga spread his hands helplessly, "Then, Alan, you go and arrange the affairs of the woman just now. Since it is. Your strong request..."
"Yes!" Alan said loudly.
"It's great." Seeing this scene before him, Alfin was sincerely happy-even in a cruel war, I can see such a picture-the thoughtfulness and understanding between people is really A cure.
It's just... I don't know if it is my own illusion. Just now, it seemed that there were two other people with very disgusting expressions...?
"So... it seems that the final result of this thing should be pretty good." Heliga took a bite of the rice ball in his hand-this was lunch four hours late-at this time he was sitting with Fei. On the big desk that belonged to his father before, "I just said that the woman's technology is useless here, and you immediately broke this sentence."
"Didn't you let us go by yourself?" Fei was dissatisfied. "Go to the surrounding areas and see if there are any other resources that can be used temporarily besides the previous logging farm and medicinal material field-this is what you said. ."
"Yeah...but I didn't expect you to find it either." Heliga spread his hands. "Mr. Toval is really worthy of being an A-rank guerrilla. This kind of thing can be considered almighty."
"It should have happened sooner or later, if the winter problem is not solved."
"Then what can I do? The refuge's heating problem-it's a refuge, not a holiday house, some are just fine. Houses with that structure have a certain risk of poisoning by burning charcoal, so direct heating What's more, it's impossible... Mr. Toval's method is really unexpected. He is really a surprise maker-just like the waterway he prepared before, it saves a lot of trouble."
"Then, when will you leave?"
"I think about it... tomorrow. Tomorrow afternoon, I think Mr. Tovar would be more willing to help."
"Then it's settled." Fei nodded and turned to leave, but was stopped by Heliga.
"What's the matter?" Fei turned around and asked questioningly, instinctively caught the rice ball thrown by Heliga, "What does this mean?"
"You gave the dinner to someone else, and I will give you part of it." Heliga laughed.
"...Idiot." Fei whispered, quietly squeezing the rice ball in her hand, and walked out of the room quickly.
"Oh... it's only a week." Heliga smiled bitterly and shook his head. "There are so many problems... If it is delayed and the right time is not delayed, what should I do?"
