Just as he was about to continue his accusation, the smart girl heard something hidden in the man's tone. The girl's expression froze and she closed her mouth.
Although she hates evil, she is not so domineering that she does not allow others to speak.
Moreover, things seemed not as simple as she imagined.
Glancing gratefully at the girl in front of her who gave her the right to speak, Elsie looked at the woman holding the boy. The woman noticed her gaze and quickly avoided it out of guilt. Only the little boy was still staring at her with hatred.
as always.
"Before coming to Jade Territory, we were from the village on the east side. My wife is beautiful and generous. Her name is Sandra. She is friends with many people in the village. Sandra thinks so too, so she always
Treat people sincerely and never put your guard up, which also leaves opportunities for people with ulterior motives.
What happened was that one night, when Richie saw that I was not at home, he became lustful and wanted to insult my wife, so he tricked Sandra into opening the door and letting Richie into the house in the name of a night visit...
Sandra, she really regarded Rich as a friend, but her 'friend' pressed her to the ground, stripped her clothes off, and committed evil acts. During the struggle, Rich
He stabbed Sandra in the stomach with a knife... I should be lucky that Rich showed mercy and didn't kill my crying daughter too."
Misha stared blankly as the man lifted the shackles, wiped his tears, and then hugged his right hand with his left hand, his face full of despair.
"When I got home the next day, all I saw was my wife, who was half-clothed, dead, and my daughter on the verge of collapse. I asked other villagers what happened, but they kept silent and just walked around from a distance.
Open me.
It took me a long time to coax my daughter back from the edge of madness, and then I found out that the murderer who killed and defiled Sandra was Uncle Rich."
Misha turned her head, trying to see the accusation on the victim's wife's face, but found that all she could see was a guilty look, which she didn't seem to notice at all just now.
As for the crying boy, for some reason, Misha always felt that it was a reflection of herself, a little silly, a little naive, but annoying.
"I couldn't stand what I was seeing, so I entrusted my daughter to a trusted friend. I took the kitchen knife at home and went to Rich's house. Even if I exchange one life for another, I want to ask for a life for Sandra.
justice.
Only later did I find out that Richie had taken his family to the Emerald Territory. I understood without even thinking that Richie was trying to avoid me and because of the Emerald Territory's law against killing people. After all, before that
, we discussed moving there.
Sure enough, after I sold all my family property, used my last savings to travel all the way, and came to the Emerald Territory with my daughter on my back, Richie had already joined the Emerald Territory through deception and became a protected Territory citizen. I was desperate.
, Fortunately, the adults in the Emerald Territory were very kind to my daughter and I. They arranged a place for us to live and assigned me a job, so that my daughter and I would not starve to death."
"I once told the adults of the Emerald Territory about Richie's evil deeds, but they could only shake their heads in embarrassment and said that since they had joined the Emerald Territory, they would no longer care about past crimes and start from scratch. I know that I
There is no way to rely on Jade Collar to avenge my wife. I know that I can't rely on anyone but myself.
Every night, I will think of the moment when I returned home, the despair and pain on my wife’s face, the stained and scarred body, the red-stained knife, and the crying, calling for mother, almost
Crazy daughter...Miss Misha, Miss Misha, you are so smart, tell me, what should I do if you were me? Where is my way out?"
Staring at Elsie's desperate eyes, as if being charged by an invisible and terrifying giant beast, Misha couldn't help but take a step back, her mind going blank.
She found that she simply could not imagine what the consequences would be if she experienced all this.
It seems that at a certain moment, maintaining order and justice and protecting the weak law has become an umbrella to protect the wicked. The law is not all fair and righteous as I imagined.
Under the umbrella of the law, there are also chilling shadows.
"Hug...sorry, I...I don't know..."
"Originally, originally...originally..."
Naturally, she didn't expect to get the answer from the little girl's mouth. The man began to cry, the iron chain rattled, and tears flowed down one after another. Misha couldn't describe how sad this was. She only knew that she had to listen.
Go down.
"Originally, with a new life, I was ready to let go of the hatred in the past and forget the evil deeds Richie did to Sandra. Just like you said, I lost a wife, but I still have another one to raise.
My daughter, if I die, she will lose her father, and no one will raise her up. I was ready to let go...
Three days ago in the evening, Richie drank wine and found me working alone in the fields, and looked at me with a proud look on his face..."
After that, Misha started talking intermittently due to excessive grief. She had forgotten what Elsie said. She just found that a picture appeared in front of her eyes. A drunkard approached a simple man who was farming in the fields. The man
Unexpectedly, I just went to the shopping street to buy some delicious cakes for my daughter to earn more money, and met the enemy who killed my wife in the evening.
The drunkard patted the trembling man on the shoulder with a proud look on his face. First he showed off that he had obtained a better job and salary, then told how wonderful the man's wife was, and described what happened on that unforgettable night.
The drunkard also said that the smartest thing about him was that he came to the Emerald Territory in time, otherwise the man would not let go of this hatred based on his impulse, and both sides would suffer in the end. The drunkard even proposed to let the man's daughter marry his son.
The two families become relatives, forget the unpleasantness that happened in the past, and start a new life...
Why, why could he be so casual, tear open the scars on someone else's heart with a nonchalant expression, and still want to make peace with him as if nothing had happened?
The strings of reason were completely broken, and as night fell, the man no longer trembled. He turned his back to the starry sky, his eyes filled with hatred, and the life-nurturing tool in his hand turned into a killing tool. The man raised the hoe in his hand and faced the drunkard ruthlessly.
He swung it hard and did what he had longed to do countless days and nights.
He used a blunt hoe to chop off his enemy's head. Every time he swung it, he could hear his wife's gentle chuckle.
It wasn't until the man regained his senses from the rage that he realized what a serious crime he had committed. In the Emerald Territory, unless the lord comes forward, the murderer has no second ending other than death.
Sitting paralyzed in the field, the man thought about a lot of things, and finally buried the body in the soil to buy himself a day. The desperate man entrusted his daughter to a family that was not very knowledgeable, but had a good relationship.
He came to the Emerald Patrol Team alone, reported himself, put himself in chains, and waited for trial and death...
When she came back to her senses, Misha discovered that her tears had blocked her sight and turned her into a living blind man.
