Chapter Thirteen: The False Family

() In the morning, Xia Han and the choir sang music praising the church in the square.

Ethereal, sacred... Religious music is different from other music. Its themes generally start from the human soul, and the melody is simple, but it can arouse a strange effect of "vibration" in the human auditory organs.

The pure voices of girls and children are the best weapons for religious music. The choir's clever transition between individual and mass chorus can give onlookers the feeling of being embraced by the breeze.

People from the ghetto are easily attracted to such songs.

Xia Han, standing at the front of the choir, was full of surprise when he saw more and more onlookers gathering. Although there was no crowd of cheers, the tickle behind him told him that this method worked.

Xia Han was sure that listening to music also had an object. After discovering the alienation of the poor from him yesterday, he found a highly prestigious church choir to help - these girls really opened a gap for him.

Even though people are still wary of him now, as Xia Han and the choir appear more frequently, they will soon lower their wariness against him.

And even if their hostility remains unabated, Xia Han can still join in the chorus and gather a little faith in the worst possible outcome.

Of course, this method is not perfect. The nuns all have work to do, so it would be good to spend two hours a day to help him - they all leave at noon.

Xia Han couldn't force them, so he could only make full use of their time as much as possible.

The choir and his busking in the square continued like this. What made Xia Han happy was that he found that the girl named Wu Jian was hiding and peeping at them every day.

Xia Han pretended to accidentally ask a well-informed nun about Wujian, but he got unexpected information.

"Wu Jian?...Ah...that dark girl, I know her."

"Miss, your observation skills are very keen. She is a famous child here...the whole family is an anomaly."

This nun said a word that no one could ignore - alien.

Does this mean that the other person’s family is very mysterious and powerful?

Wu Jian was of great importance to Xia Han. Xia Han was afraid of missing this information, so he continued to ask more questions, but the answer he got was once again unexpected.

The reason why Wu Jian's family is strange is because her family are all "heartless" people.

"Her family is all alien and has no ordinary feelings... The three members of the family never communicate with other people. Someone dumped a dog's body in her yard a few days ago, but they didn't complain a word."

"There was a corpse in the yard. They came and went freely as if they didn't see it. Now they can still smell the putrid smell when walking outside."

The nun said this.

Naturally, Xia Han didn't believe it at all. The Wu Jian he saw last time had a rich expression - just like other children. How could she not have human emotions? Such rumors were just spreading rumors.

He felt that the credibility was too low, so he did not ask the nun again.

A few days passed quickly, and Xia Han's actions paid off. The seal of the second flower on his back had opened three petals, and the number of primary believers in the slums had increased to 5%.

Wu Jian still stayed in the darkness of the square every day and peeked, so Xia Han felt it was time to get in touch with her.

However, at noon that day, a choir nun took out the basket before leaving.

"This is the cheesecake Aunt Wuqian prepared for you."

She took out an exquisite cake from the basket and handed it to Xia Han.

This just goes with Xia Han's wishes. With lunch, he has a reason to stay here and look for opportunities to contact Wu Jian.

The girl hasn't left yet - Xia Han is sitting under the tree enjoying his lunch.

"...delicious...much better than that disgusting meat..."

With just one bite, Xia Han felt her mouth full of fragrance - Wu Qian's craftsmanship was excellent.

She compares with the Lord of Jade City who likes raw meat...Why are people's tastes so different?

Xia Han initially thought that Wu Jing was pretending to be cool by eating bloody meat and to torment the others at the same table with him...but he accidentally overheard a conversation among his servants and found out that Wu Jing actually liked to eat raw meat.

Strange man.

"Um?"

When the cake was almost eaten, Xia Han discovered that Wu Jian, who was hiding aside, was discovered by other children first.

"Ah, look, it's this monster!"

"Everyone, hit her quickly!"

"Die, monster!"

They threw pebbles at Wu Jian, and some even hit her directly on the head.

【These naughty kids...are so cute!】

Xia Han was not angry but happy. The actions of these children were so timely. It was like a natural stage was set up for him to heroically save the beauty!

He ate the cake quickly and in big gulps.

"Your Highness, wipe your mouth."

Xiao Sheng reminded, Xia Han casually took the handkerchief from his hand and wiped it a few times, then ran towards Wujian.

【Kids, keep throwing, don’t stop!】

As Xia Han ran, he felt secretly happy in his heart - he was smart and had already seen the ending...

First, he ran over, and then used his identity as a noble to scare away these children. Then he squatted down, took out a silk scarf, and tenderly wiped the injuries on Wu Jian's face, and then said a few sweet words...

Is there any little girl in this world who can resist such a perfect plan?

"Hey, you guys!"

Xia Han let go of his voice and ran to the children's side with righteous words: "How could you..."

"Wow!"

"Run quickly, she is a noble who wears a beautiful dress and eats people!"

"Mom, save me..."

The naughty kids dispersed in one fell swoop, and Xia Han was delighted. This combination was so amazing...

"Are you okay?"

He turned to face Wu Jian, his voice full of concern: "Your face is injured, let me wipe it for you..."

The girl's face was indeed injured, with several cuts on her face.

Xia Han reached out and wiped her scar, and the red scar immediately healed into a healthy color - no, this is cheese!

"..."

"Sorry, I got the wrong one."

Xia Han's expression remained unchanged as he shook away the handkerchief Xiao Sheng had used to wipe his mouth, and reached into his pocket to find a scarf.

"..."

Wu Jian was stunned for a long time, then his eyes suddenly shrank like a mouse meeting a cat, and he ran back.

This script is a little different from what I imagined...

Wu Jian appears next to the square every day, why did she run away again when she saw Xia Han?

【Are you shy?】

Xia Han remembered the look in Wu Jian's eyes just now, but it was not a shy look, but genuine fear.

This fear does not seem to come from the gap in status.

If Wu Jian was afraid of Xia Han because of his noble status, then there was no reason for her to hide and peek every day.

what happened?

Xia Han looked at Wu Jian's back, hesitated for a moment, and then chased after him.

"Ding...discovered a new plot: fake family..."

"False family...difficulty level D...completion conditions: reveal the truth...completion reward: little maid."
