Luo: "Then who saved you?! Uncle Redrosa said that the battle there lasted only a moment!!"
Pask: "In a moment..."
Lehman's sleepiness was broken by Luo's exclamation. He sat upright on the hard bed board, rubbed his eyes and quickly adapted to the choking light, and asked in confusion
"Where is this...Uncle Pask."
Pask was still mumbling to himself, somewhat unable to understand the current situation.
An instant??? Is it also an instant when dealing with an enemy like that? Who saved them? And for what purpose? Why are they there!?
Is it the church? Or is it the kingdom’s troops? But why???
Pask's lips and teeth trembled slightly, but it was difficult to get an accurate answer.
Lehman slowly raised his head, a little puzzled by Pask's state, and confirmed again
"Uncle Pask??"
Only then did Pask notice the child beside him and said hesitantly
"Ah...yes, this is one of our destinations in the future. It is a pub and a casino. You can call it the terminal..."
After a short pause, Pask turned his head as if he thought of something, and stared at Lehman to get the possible answer
"By the way, did you notice our attacker before Lehman fell into coma?"
But Lehman just shook his head gently and dismissed Pask's last thought. Pask's brows furrowed and then dispersed in an instant. He shook Lehman's head lightly and stood up and put on his muddy boots.

"Let me catch up with uncle, I know the location of the contact station! You were just attacked and it's not convenient to go out now, right?"
Luo looked at Pask who was getting up and said in a panic.
Pask raised his eyes coldly, originally wanting to suppress Luo's innocent curiosity, but he silently put away the pressure that could be released, leaned his hands on his legs and gently grabbed his hair, sighed deeply and said "Okay, let's go now, Luo."
Hearing Pask's order, Luo couldn't believe his ears. He didn't want to confirm again but responded quickly. Fearing that Pask would take back the order again, he turned around and walked out of the door without any hesitation.
"Uncle Pask, I think it's not a good idea for her to act alone."
Pask smiled bitterly
"Yes, the more eager you are to do something, the further you will go..."
"Then why?"
"So I guess you can keep up with her, Lehman."
Lehman hesitated but did not mean to refuse, he just asked calmly
"What about you."
Pask didn't want to bury it. He stood up and patted the dust on his body. He raised his hand and extinguished the kerosene lamp on the wall. The light from the fire flowed on his cheek. Pask said calmly
"Usually in situations like this, the organization will send a less important killer to the orphanage to confirm the situation. Whether he comes back on time will correspond to the corresponding signal, but I want to confirm it myself."
Lehman sat on the edge of the bed and put on his boots. He also patted the dried dust on his body and followed Pask outside as he echoed
"So that's it."
Pask: "I'm sorry Lehman, if I can't come back. Just follow Luo in Redrosa, he is trustworthy."
Lehman: "I believe you will come back."
Pask: "I hope so."
During the conversation, they walked through the dark corridor and came to a rusty iron door. The foul smell faintly flowed in from behind the door, and was drawn away by the old exhaust fan next to it.
Pask firmly grasped the door handle tied by the reins and opened the door with force. Facing the stench and walking into the dark sewer, he grabbed Lehman's hand and started to move him towards an unknown direction.
Not long after, they stopped again. Pask knocked on the ladder beside him without saying anything, and climbed straight up. With the sound of twisting buckles, the manhole cover was opened, and a beam of light poured into the dirty room.
sewers.
Pask looked around the environment of the trail and did not see any suspicious figures, so he said to Lehman who was still below.
"Come up, Lehman."
Lehman controlled his breathing and did not answer. He just grabbed the ladder and climbed up quickly. In fact, Lehman could barely accept the previous environment. After all, the living environment of this body was not much better. It was just
The first time he entered the sewer really made him feel uncontrollably nauseated.
Connecting his left hand with his right hand, he quickly pushed his body and thrust his head through the boundary between light and darkness. He took a deep breath of the turbid air outside and pushed his body out of the sewer.
Pask looked at Lehman, who looked a little embarrassed in front of him, but chuckled reassuringly, kicked the manhole cover naturally to close the source of the stench, pointed in the opposite direction of the city gate, looked at the familiar figure not far away and said "This direction keeps going forward. It shouldn't be difficult to catch up with Luo at your pace."
Lehman slowly exhaled and adjusted his breath while looking at Luo's figure and replied
"Yeah."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave, but Pask grabbed his shoulder again, took out a silver pendant from his inner pocket and put it in his hand. It was two sharp-edged wings locked on a gear. Lehman gently weighed the pendant in his hand, then turned his head and looked at Pask with some confusion.
Pask: "Keep it safe for me, Lehman."
After saying that, he turned around without hesitation and walked quickly towards the city gate.
Lehman was stunned for a moment but had no intention of saying anything else, because he knew that Pask's trip was not as dangerous as he imagined, because he himself was the last variable in that battle.
He turned around lightly and looked at Luo's figure. Just as he was about to catch up, he was suddenly rushed out from the shadows around the corner. He grabbed his neck and quickly dragged him into the alley. Then he threw Lehman directly into the garbage.
Next to the box, he threatened him with a dagger in his eyes
"Hand over the necklace!"
Looking at Leman's panic, his eyes gradually calmed down but became sharper. One foot stepped directly on Leman's hand, and the dagger gradually came closer to Leman's face. Behind him, two men who were about seventeen or eighteen years older than him
Several companions also gathered around.
"If you want to grab it, can you move more quickly? What will happen when the guard comes!"
"Don't worry, the guards won't care. I'm just going to give you a personal demonstration. Watch it carefully and learn from it. You're a coward."
Not paying attention to the teasing behind him, the person threatening Lehman had already noticed Lehman's unusual calmness.
He had threatened many people, but now this child was almost motionless. This person made him feel a little frightened and made him feel extremely unhappy. He smacked his lips and his eyes darkened.
"Shit."
The knife struck directly into Lehman's hand, but in disbelief, Lehman grabbed his wrist with his backhand and was unable to move. It was more humiliation and disbelief than fear!
Without hesitation, he directly held the dagger with his left hand and tried to push the knife into Lehman's hand with both hands. However, he lost consciousness in just an instant and kissed the gray wall with his head.
The three of them were all hit hard almost at the same time, losing consciousness and falling in the alley.
Lehman walked out of the alley leisurely. He could still see Luo's figure, his eyes flashed slightly, and he started to chase after him.
