Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries

Chapter 195: Kissed by an Angel ( words updated, please subscribe)
Blood dyed the luxurious manor hall red, and the smell of blood spread quickly.
Neither the short and fat Baron Leander Gavin nor the fifty-year-old Viscount Emerson Daniels escaped the fate of death, because their entries showed that there were no innocent people here at all. They were all people who had repeatedly accepted Jamie's invitations and participated in many similar dances. They took pleasure in inflicting violence on girls and were the direct cause of these girls' [misfortune].
Li En didn't want to taste this dirty blood at all.
"How could you kill me? You can't kill me. I'm also a believer in God. The money I donate to the church every year is ten times more than these girls, oh no, a hundred times more. God must bless me, you can't kill me."
A wealthy businessman stumbled to his feet, tears and snot mixed together, and ran while accusing Li En.
However, he only ran two steps before he fell to the ground, his neck and head separated, and he became the next corpse.
The nobles and wealthy businessmen were completely terrified.
"You... aren't you a merciful one favored by God? Aren't you a hero? Aren't you a good person? How could you kill so many people?!"
The few remaining guests in the manor were so frightened that their legs were paralyzed and they were completely unable to move. They were dominated by extreme fear, but they tried their best to survive.
"You...you let us go, we are willing to give you everything. Everything."
"I never said I was a good person."
As soon as Li En finished speaking, he ended their lives in a hasty manner.
Killing these people doesn't even require using any abilities, it's as easy as stepping on a cockroach.
This scene had a great impact on Parker. When he saw these people kneeling and begging for mercy, he actually felt a little soft-hearted and wanted to take them back to the Magistrates' Court for trial.
Because the distance was too close, warm blood splashed on Parker's face. Parker was stunned, like a speechless puppet.
"Are you scared already? Don't you still want to go to the battlefield? The battlefield is a hundred times more cruel than here."
Li En said lightly.
Parker, whose mind was blank, was awakened by Li En's words. His Adam's apple rolled and saliva kept secreting. He gripped the sword in his hand and then lowered his head.
He found that he was too weak. Even though he knew that all the people he killed were bad guys, he still felt panic.
Oh, he didn't kill it, he was just watching.
He hated his own incompetence and weakness, and he also wanted to be as brave and strong as Li En.
He now not only respected Li En, but also felt a little bit of fear.
So when Li En patted his shoulder, he trembled subconsciously.
Li En was not surprised. This was just a child who had not grown up.
"Parker, I'm glad you can feel afraid. Fear is the first step to growth. For someone who doesn't know what fear is, fear will make you progress."
"Brother, if I make a mistake one day, will you treat me like this?"
Parker asked tentatively.
"No." Li En looked at Parker, "Grandpa will take care of you himself."
Parker breathed a sigh of relief.
"And you wouldn't make such a mistake. You're a kind child. And these cockroaches that just died can't even be called human beings."
"I see."
Parker's mood improved slightly after receiving Li En's affirmation.
"Annie, stay and take care of the girls while Parker and I go down to the basement."
Li En stretched out his hand and put it on Parker's shoulder. "My dear brother, please lead a blind man like me to the basement here."
"what?"
Parker then realized that Lee En couldn't see.
But how did he behave like a blind man just now?
"Have you forgotten that I am a disabled person now?"
Lee En asked.
"Brother, I remember, but."
"Don't worry, let's go. The basement shouldn't be difficult to find."
Anne stayed to look after the knocked-out girls, while Lee En went to the basement of the manor with Parker.
Even though Parker was a young man with bright eyes and sharp ears, he still had to rely on Li En's guidance to find the basement of Mason Manor.
“Oh, I found it!”
Parker wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was very curious about how Li En did it.
"If your knight level reaches my level, you will be able to identify directions by smell."
Li En said.
"Brother, then you don't need me at all."
Parker said somewhat disappointedly.
"No, I need you to help me down the stairs."
Li En knocked the guard unconscious, pushed open the rusty iron door, and tilted his head.
Parker volunteered to act as a guide cane.
The two brothers walked up the creaking wooden stairs, and the humid air was like an invisible hand, squeezing Parker's breath.
For some reason, Parker always felt that it was very scary down there.
The five-minute walk down seemed to have passed through the dust of time and arrived at the abyss of oblivion.
In front of me is a cold basement. The solidified water droplets on the wall reflect the dim light, and the accumulated water on the floor casts mottled shadows.
Parker's gaze suddenly froze, he could hardly believe his eyes. The dark and damp basement had been converted into a torture cell.
Iron and leather torture instruments hung on the walls, their designs varied and bloody. Perhaps while the people in the manor's banquet hall were still reveling, a brutal torture was taking place in the manor's basement. The air was filled with the smell of decay and rust, so strong it was almost tasting, making Parker's breathing rapid and dull.
Lee En followed closely behind, his nose catching the suffocating smell, a mixture of blood, mold, and the smell of past crimes, like an invisible evil spirit, wandering in the corner, ready to grab their souls at any time.
He instinctively covered his mouth and nose, but he could not escape the smell that penetrated deep into his lungs.
"This place is disgusting," Li En whispered, his voice filled with barely concealed disgust.
Parker's gaze slid down the wall. The iron shackles, whips, and branding irons emitted a cold glow under the dim light.
His gaze was fixed on the corner, where a vague shadow was wriggling.
As he got closer, the shadow gradually revealed its true appearance. It was a corpse. No, to be precise, it was not one corpse, but several corpses merged together, as if they were piled up haphazardly. The skin had lost its elasticity and turned into wrinkled leather, tightly attached to the bones and stuck to limbs that did not belong to them.
The rats burrowed in and out of the corpse, their sharp teeth making a rustling sound as they rubbed against the rotten flesh, as if they were playing a hymn to death.
Parker felt his stomach churn and a sour taste in his throat. He quickly turned around and stumbled towards the door, trying to escape this cell filled with death and terror.
With every step, he had to avoid the torture instruments scattered on the ground, those cold tools that had taken countless lives. His heart was beating wildly in his chest, as if he wanted to break through the heavy cloak and escape from this place full of despair.
The air was filled with the smell of corruption and blood, and Parker couldn't help but vomit again. He held on to the door frame, supporting his body hard, trying to stay standing.
His face was covered in sweat, every drop of it a mixture of regret and fear. It seemed that seeing these gnawed female corpses was even more terrifying to him than the scene of Li En killing people just now.
Although Li En did not see this scene, the entry did not deceive him. He saw a bunch of dead people.
At the same time, there were some living beings in the cell, whose hearts were beating and breathing, and they were locked up with these dead people.
Perhaps it was precisely these tortures that could quickly cause a noble girl to be burdened with the term "bad luck constitution".
The living people in the cell heard the footsteps but did not react at all.
Their expressions were numb and their eyes were empty. Even if someone around them was being gnawed by rats, they seemed unaware.
They are more like real blind people than the blind man Li En.
In addition, they have one thing in common, they all have [bad luck constitution].
Including the 7 people with [bad luck constitution] in the manor banquet hall, there are a total of 32 people!
This number is shocking enough.
If left unchecked, the entire capital will face a catastrophe.
Li En didn't believe that this was not a counterattack by the Eye of Doom.
Li En opened the door of the cell, but the girls still didn't react, like soulless bodies.
Until Li En approached one of them, reached out and touched the girl's shoulder.
The girl trembled instinctively all over, then she held her stomach and roared wildly.
【Bad Luck Constitution】【Mental Disorder】【Pregnant】
Yes, the girl's belly is bulging.
Perhaps it was her body's instinct that made her hug her abdomen, wanting to protect the baby in her belly.
But she didn't know that [Pregnant] was a red entry, which proved that she was pregnant with a monster, not a healthy human child.
Li En felt unprecedented anger at this moment.
He took out the Green Shade Territory's specialty anesthetic and gave the out-of-control girl an injection, causing her to fall asleep.
Considering that clearing the entries would mean facing the Eye of Doom, Li En planned to give himself a layer of insurance.
"Parker, come down."
Li En called Parker down and asked him to bring the surviving girls to the manor hall one by one.
He also asked Parker and Annie to take the girls who were not infected with the [Body of Doom] away in a carriage, send them to the Sheriff Court, and then come back to pick him up.
Li En piled up the bodies of the nobles and wealthy businessmen, built a small altar, and sacrificed them and the indifferent servants of the manor to the [Mouth of Bewitchment].
Before the aura of the [Mouth of Bewitching] completely dissipated, he immediately began to clean up the [Body of Doom].
Li En grabbed the red entry, and his consciousness immediately entered a void.
[Eye of Doom] seemed to have been waiting here for a long time.
His eyes were indifferent but cold.
"Leen Moriah, you want to break the deal between us."
"If you want Mary, I am certainly willing to give her to you, but if you want my child, I'm sorry, I can't do it. Our alliance ends here."
"Do you think that a deal with God can be canceled whenever you want?"
[Eye of Doom] is angry.
Countless chains made up of mysterious runes bound Li En.
But it didn't have the intense burning pain like last time.
[Eye of Doom] sensed the presence of [Mouth of Bewitching] nearby.
"Damn it! You actually chose that hypocritical guy. You will pay the price for your stupid behavior."
Just by sensing the breath of the [Mouth of Bewitching], the usually unruly [Eye of Doom] retreated.
He knew that in the royal capital, there was no chance for him to defeat the [Bewitching Mouth].
Because the [Mouth of Bewitching] is stealing the power of [Tiger]'s faith through His Holiness the Pope.
The chains loosened Li En, and the [Eye of Doom] disappeared in the white mist.
Li En fell to the ground that didn't seem real enough, and he was still frightened.
This time, Soraya's ability was not used, but the game between the two gods was relied upon.
Li En's work of cleaning up the entries this time went very smoothly.
[Entry Points +5000]
[Entry Points +200]
[Entry Points +100]…
In the past, each time you cleared the bad luck constitution, the points could only increase by 1000, but now it can increase by 5000. This is enough to show that the harm caused by these red items has exceeded that of a witch out of control.
After all, this is Yalong City, the royal capital.
Li En cleared the [Bad Luck Constitution] entries of 32 girls and obtained 160000 entry points. Together with [Mental Loss of Control] and other miscellaneous negative entries, he accumulated 188000 points. In addition to the remaining 70 points from the Yusofa incident, he now has a total of 88.8 points.
The points finally increased significantly.
Even if it is impossible to break through 200 million in a short period of time, there is hope of at least 100 million.
Li En felt that the [Special Believer] was already waving at him.
The next step is to find the deceased Duke Giles. If Jamie has been working for him all along, then he might be the one favored by the Eye of Doom.
Thinking about the attitude of the Eye of Doom just now, Li En felt that he had provoked a very terrifying existence.
[Mouth of Bewitching] seems to be even more powerful than [Eye of Doom], otherwise it would not have such a deterrent effect.
The more he thought about it, the more doubts arose in Li En's mind.
The royal city is guarded by Sequence 1, and no evil gods or demons can enter. So why can he summon the [Mouth of Bewitching] here and even touch the [Eye of Doom]?
Does this mean that they themselves are not evil gods?
Are they, in some sense, also righteous gods?
Thinking of this, Li En couldn't help but feel a little scared.
If this is true, all the facts in the canonical chronology remain to be verified, and it is very likely that it is just a pseudo-history written to satisfy the missionary work of [Tiger].
"Kid, what did you find?"
A gentle voice came from [The Bewitching Mouth], which sounded very much like a mother's, making people feel that their tired hearts were relaxed.
However, Li En was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.
I have been cleaning up the entries for so long, but He hasn't left yet.
Could it be that he wants me to sacrifice all these living people?
No, it was because he had sacrificed so many people but had never asked the [Mouth of Bewitching] for any gifts, so He would continue to stay here.
Having said that, He is also very polite and principled.
"what do you need?"
[The Bewitching Mouth] asked. He didn't seem to mind that Li En didn't answer his previous question, but asked questions according to Li En's thoughts.
This made Li En think carefully and fearfully, and he suspected that the "Mouth of Bewitching" had the power to read minds.
Whatever you think, He knows it immediately.
"Great Being, I only want to ask you three questions."
Li En felt that most of the people he sacrificed were ordinary people, and it would not be appropriate to ask for too many things.
"You ask."
[Seductive Mouth] said gently.
"Where is Duke Giles?"
"Budd Manor."
"Was Duke Giles saved by Randall?"
"Yes."
"Is Duke Giles the favored one of the Eye of Doom?"
"Yes."
"Thank you for your generosity."
Li En bowed slightly to the [Bewitching Mouth] in the sky, and then the [Bewitching Mouth] disappeared.
This time, He did not invite Li En to make a deal with Him or become His man.
Those who are resurrected by Randall will be unconditionally loyal to Randall.
But Duke Giles is the favored one of the Eye of Doom.
Although Randall is a follower of Tiger, he has a deal with the [Mouth of Bewitching].
Great Tiger, could it be that all your subordinates are traitors?
Li En gathered his scattered thoughts and decided to use a large-scale purification to erase the presence of the two remnants.
He is now a silver believer. Except for the fact that one person cannot activate a destructive-level formation like Saint Raymond's Purification Formation, he can perform ordinary purification formations by himself.
Of course, if he agreed to join the seminary, he would have the opportunity to learn the Saint Raymond Purification Array.
Unfortunately, he doesn't want to live under Randall's nose.
After completing the purification, Li En moved all the girls out of the manor and lit the torch in his hand.
The torch streaked across the night sky, casting a long shadow.
The raging fire spread rapidly, devouring every inch of the manor.
This manor, filled with sin and darkness, will be reduced to ashes along with this fire.
The manor's wooden structure was quickly engulfed in flames, and its once ornate decorations twisted and crackled in the intense heat.
Li En watched expressionlessly as the flames continued to rise until the entire manor was decorated like a huge torch.
The firelight shone on his face, bringing a hint of warmth, but it could not conceal the coldness and determination in his eyes.
Since you are declaring war on me, don't blame me for fighting back.
Li En didn't believe that Jamie's kidnapping of Viscount Benjamin's daughter was just an accident.
Because, with the exception of Stella Benjamin, none of the other girls were locals. Even the nobles were from other counties, and most of them were commoners, not the nobles Jamie mentioned, but they were more or less involved with the nobility, such as the nobles' mistresses, illegitimate daughters, and personal maids.
In any case, this was a serious case of human abduction and trafficking, and Li En decided to take these girls to the magistrate's court first.
Although the people in the Security Court are incompetent, this is the royal capital after all, and he helped to find the victims. Now he just needs the cooperation of the Security Court to find the families of these victims and send them home.
Li En believed that they could still do this. Besides, solving such a big case would make the president of the magistrate's court very proud.
After all, this case involves many real nobles.
The Sheriff Court couldn't have taken it lightly. Parker and Annie returned just in time to see a large bonfire that no one was celebrating.
In the firelight, the two men carried the unconscious girls onto the carriage.
Because there were too many victims, one pumpkin carriage could not pull them all, so Parker requisitioned the carriages in the manor. In short, these carriages now had no owners and could be used without any psychological burden, and no rent had to be paid.
The trouble is that without the help of a coachman, they can only be tied to the back of the pumpkin carriage with ropes, which sacrifices the speed of the pumpkin carriage.
A series of ornately decorated carriages, cleverly linked together, resembled a strange train led by a pumpkin carriage, moving slowly forward in the afterglow of the setting sun. Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, dappling the dusty path.
The silence of the suburbs was gradually broken by the slight creaking and clattering of horse hooves as the convoy moved forward.
However, the place is sparsely populated, with only a few early-rising residents occasionally poking their heads out curiously to watch this strange procession slowly pass by.
As the convoy approached the Kaiton district, the situation was completely different.
More and more onlookers gathered on both sides of the street, pointing and talking, and some even couldn't help but follow the convoy to find out what was going on.
The enthusiasm of the crowd almost caused a traffic jam. Fortunately, Li En had already told Parker to notify the group of officials in the Sheriff Court who were just sitting there doing nothing.
Under the command of numerous uniformed sheriffs, the crowd was evacuated in an orderly manner, ensuring the smooth flow of traffic.
This is because there is no family crest of the Moria family on the pumpkin carriage. It is only rented from a carriage shop. Otherwise, it might cause greater unrest.
The convoy finally arrived at the Sheriff Court, where officials were already ready.
From the first-level president of the public security court, the second-level secretary-general to the third-level deacon, the fourth-level administrator, and the fifth-level public security captain, all the core cadres are there.
No one wants to offend the Moria family.
Parker had already revealed his identity when he came to deliver the victim, which gave the officials time to prepare.
"Master Li En, thank you for your hard work this time."
The president of the magistrates' court took the initiative to step forward and wanted to help the blind Li En, but was given a cold look by Annie.
For some reason, when this woman looked at him, the president felt a chill on his neck, just like the time he was attacked by an assassin a few years ago.
The judge withdrew his hand awkwardly and continued, "Have all the criminals been apprehended?"
"The criminals are all dead. I only brought back the victims."
Li En said in a calm tone.
The presiding judge and the officers of the Public Security Court were all very surprised when they heard this.
"Are all the gang members dead? They captured so many girls, so they must be a big organization, right? Why are they all dead?"
They had preconceived notions, thinking that aristocratic sons like Lee En and Parker, who lived a life of luxury, would definitely not kill people themselves. Moreover, Lee En was known as Yusofa's hero, a man kissed by an angel, and his nature should be kind and noble. How could he kill people?
"A sudden fire burned them to death."
Annie said lightly.
This answer was recognized by everyone.
"So that's how it is. If you offend a man who has been kissed by an angel, you will definitely be punished by God."
A sheriff's captain muttered quietly, and Lee En heard it.
The man kissed by an angel? When did this nickname come about?
Li En raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't know that his appearance had caused heated discussions among the women in the royal capital. In order to praise his beauty, everyone gave him such a title.
At the same time, he felt that he had a new entry.
[Man Kissed by an Angel] As major newspapers across the country announced, you have become the perfect lover in the eyes of all women in the Holy Empire. In order to praise your appearance, they call you "Man Kissed by an Angel."
With this entry, you will become a walking hormone. No matter who sees you, they can't help but stop and watch, causing traffic jams.
With this entry, you will be more likely to win the hearts of women, but 99% of them are just after your body.
With this entry, people will have a preconceived notion of you, thinking that you are extremely kind, pure, and noble.
Tsk, what's the pure-faced dog entry?
Thinking about it carefully, I have really been kissed by an angel. I was indeed kissed by Soraya when I first met her.
"But we have already obtained a valid clue from the criminals."
Parker coughed twice and said.
There was no way. Because Li En was at the scene, this two-meter-tall, blond handsome boy seemed to have no sense of existence at all. He could only rely on making noises to attract everyone's attention.
You have to know that Parker has always been the focus of any party he attended.
Unexpectedly, as soon as his brother came back, his brilliance was completely overshadowed.
But he was not jealous of this. He just felt very proud to have such an outstanding brother, and occasionally felt a little inexplicably inferior.
Parker didn't know anything about Budd Manor. He only knew that Jamie talked about Duke Giles before he died.
Although this is somewhat unbelievable, Parker still has to tell the magistrates court about this clue to facilitate their possible investigation.
"A human trafficker named Jamie, he's the one who kidnapped these girls."
Parker said.
"Investigate this Jamie immediately!"
In order to show how much he valued the matter, the president of the court deliberately yelled at the secretary-general, and his voice almost broke.
Parker paused, "He's dead, but he said he was just a small figure, and behind him was Duke Giles."
"Investigate Giles immediately... Wait, what did you say? Duke Giles?"
This time the president's voice really broke.
Because he was so surprised. Wasn't Duke Giles already dead? He had personally witnessed the Duke being sent to the guillotine.
How could this case be related to the Duke of Giles?
Could it be that the ghost of Duke Giles has returned?
Not only the president of the court, but all the officials of the Public Security Court showed expressions of disbelief.
"How could Duke Giles still be alive? He's been dead for ten years."
"Yes, Master Parker, you are mistaken."
"Or maybe he was deceived by that cunning human trafficker named Jamie."
"Yes, that must be the case."
They talked at once and expressed their opinions.
Parker now suspected that he had been deceived by Jamie. How could he believe such a lame lie?
"Mr. Judge, I think we should first contact the victims' families. Many of them are noble ladies of high status. We can't let them stay in the magistrate's court forever."
The Secretary-General interrupted their conversation and made a suggestion.
The judge nodded slightly. "Yes, the most important thing for us right now is to help them go home. Oh, what a group of poor girls."
"Since everyone still has official business to attend to, we will go back first."
Li En looked at the time on his pocket watch. If he went back now, he would just be able to catch dinner.
Although he didn't need to eat, Parker and Annie were already hungry. They had done a lot of physical work today.
"Let's have dinner in the Sheriff Court. I've asked the chef to prepare the best dishes."
The president of the court invited him graciously, and he also wanted to establish a good relationship with Li En, the new upstart of the empire.
"Grandpa is still waiting for us at home. I'm sorry. Maybe next time."
Li En politely declined the president of the magistrates' court.
"You must take good care of the victims and help them find their families, understand?"
Parker reminded.
"Of course, that's our responsibility."
The judge looked serious.
Because a noble was also kidnapped, he couldn't suppress the matter even if he wanted to. Fortunately, the victims are now in the Public Security Court, so it can be said that they have made a contribution to saving people.
Even though they didn't save the person, since Li En took the initiative to find them, it was like he was doing them a huge favor.
At least after the case is exposed, the Security Court will not be scolded as a group of useless people who only eat the emperor's food and the parasites raised by the empire in vain.
The reformists represented by Earl Hall will not keep holding on to the Public Security Court and want to change it into a police department.
Of course, they cannot take all the credit for Lee and Parker's achievements, otherwise it would be a bit ungrateful.
The court president and the cadres accompanied Li En and his party to the door and watched them get on the carriage. They did not go back until the carriage was 200 meters away from the Security Court.
"Mr. Judge, what about the dinner we prepared?"
The deacon asked.
"Master Li En is unwilling to stay, so why are you holding this banquet? Cancel it immediately and notify the reporters to come and interview the victims."
The judge shook his fat belly and said.
"Isn't this a bad idea? Shouldn't we contact the victim's family first? What if they don't want to expose the truth?"
A security captain said.
"We will do whatever the president says."
The Secretary General said with a cold face.
The president of the court wants to achieve political achievements, and inviting reporters to report on it is the best achievement.
They don't care what the victims think. The judge thinks that since these victims were saved, they should sincerely thank the God of Tiger. Why should they expect future reputation?
Of course, the president of the court did not want to offend local nobles, such as Viscount Benjamin, so he notified them early on.
As soon as Li En and the others left, the Viscount rushed to the Public Security Court and took away his battered little daughter.
Li En, Parker and Anne returned to the Duke's Mansion.
A sumptuous dinner has been prepared in the restaurant.
Grand Duke Moria has also returned home from the palace. He has been very busy recently because he has to prepare for the coronation ceremony of King Augustus, so he is not at home most of the time. Of course, he will not miss the daily dinner, nor will he allow other family members to be absent.
Even the rebellious little daughter Kelly was sitting obediently at the table.
Grand Duke Moria is obviously a conservative, but her daughter inherited the family genes and is not willing to stay at home just because she is a woman.
Of course, he also raised many daughters with good character, such as the eldest daughter Vicki Moriah, the second daughter Lillian Moriah, the third daughter Eve Moriah, and the fourth daughter Joanna Moriah. They all married well, but unfortunately they were far away from him.
On the contrary, this undisciplined Kelly has always been by his side.
So Grand Duke Moria also figured it out. As long as Kelly likes, she can play however she wants. Why should his daughter have to be like other nobles' daughters and follow the rules?
I have made so many sacrifices for the kingdom, so what's wrong with letting my descendants be a little willful?
So, even though he knew that Kelly and her knight were flirting with each other, he pretended not to see it.
Just like when he was young, his mother always indulged him in having an affair with the maid.
Of course, that was many years ago, and now Grand Duke Moria just thinks that he was too naive back then.
And Kelly is at a childish age.
Compared to Kelly, Grand Duke Moria cares more about his grandson Li En.
Grand Duke Moria, who usually doesn't like to talk while eating, rarely spoke and asked Li En what he was doing today.
"We've been busy rescuing damsels all day."
Parker excitedly replied, "You'd never imagine what we saw today. A group of innocent girls were chained and imprisoned in a basement like livestock slaves. Oh, and those traffickers even held a cherry party, letting those shameless and vulgar businessmen choose the girls at will. There were even nobles involved. It's a disgrace to the nobility."
Parker kept talking, and Grand Duke Moria's brow gradually frowned.
"Parker."
Angelina, the gentle sister, reminded her, "Shut up, I'm not asking you."
Parker stuck out his tongue helplessly and lowered his head to cut the steak with a knife.
But when he saw the steak, he couldn't help but think of the scene in the basement. His stomach churned and he almost vomited.
He tilted his head, covered his mouth, and said to the maid,
"Take it, I'm eating vegetarian today."
"Grandpa, this is what happened. Parker and I encountered a gang of human traffickers. All the victims have been sent to the Sheriff Court. I hope the Sheriff Court staff won't be too eager for quick success and hire reporters to report it, otherwise these girls might be harmed again."
Li En said in a calm tone.
Angelina and Diane once again cast admiring glances at Li En.
"Brother, next time something like this happens, can you take me with you? I also want to help."
said the lively Diane.
The introverted Angelina looked at Li En's handsome profile, her cheeks flushed slightly, and her heart was beating wildly. She felt that there was no man in the world better than her cousin.
"I…I want to help, too."
"You can't help. You'll only cause more trouble if you go there. Many of the girls there are nobles. You'd better stay out of the house recently. What if you get kidnapped?"
Parker poured cold water on his sisters and won their unanimous hatred.
Kelly asked with concern, "Those girls, what have they been through? How are they doing now?"
"Aunt, you don't want to know. They were locked up in a dark and damp basement and abused. Some even became pregnant. Others died in the basement. The bodies were piled up together and turned into monsters. Now they are all placed in the Sheriff Court."
As Parker spoke, he recalled the scene and instantly lost his appetite for vegetables.
"I can't eat anymore."
"Parker, I can't eat anymore either. Thanks to you."
Diane said.
Angelina felt terrified just by listening to Parker's description. Her body trembled slightly and she looked at Kelly beside her.
"Auntie, I'm a little scared."
"Don't be afraid, my child. No one dares to harm anyone from our Moria family. You will never encounter such a terrible thing. I promise you."
Kelly's comfort made the timid Angelina feel a little relieved, and she continued to eat with her head down.
Grand Duke Moria also expressed his views on this matter.
"Leen, Parker, you did a great job, but next time you encounter something like this, just notify the Sheriff Court directly. There's no need to investigate it yourself."
Parker looked very proud after receiving the praise from Grand Duke Moria.
However, Li En understood what Grand Duke Moria meant. He was not praising them, but accusing them of meddling in other people's business.
"Viscount Benjamin's daughter was kidnapped when she was leaving the banquet I hosted, so I am somewhat responsible for this matter."
Li En picked up the knife and cut a piece of steak.
"So that's how it is. Is this incident directed at you?"
Grand Duke Moria asked.
"I thought maybe if I didn't deal with it, this would lead to serious consequences."
“Viscount Benjamin’s daughter, brother, are you talking about Stella?”
Angelina asked.
She and Stella had met several times at parties, and she quite liked the girl's lively and cheerful personality.
In order to please Angelina, Stella even gave her gifts.
In Angelina's heart, Stella is a friend. Although not close, she is not a stranger either.
"Yes, that's her."
Parker added, "She was so pitiful. She actually met her fiancé Leander Gavin, and Leander Gavin not only did not save her, but also made her kneel on the ground and lick his toes. What a disgusting guy. Leander Gavin was stabbed to death by his brother with a sword."
Parker suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing and immediately covered his mouth.
But almost everyone present heard it, including the many servants who were serving.
Leander Gavin was a baron, anyway.
Li En did not have a title, so even though he was a lord, he could not easily kill a baron.
There was no expression on Grand Duke Moria's face. He just said lightly,
"Kill, just kill."
The servants breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
They are really afraid of hearing something they shouldn't hear.
Kelly looked at her father with a smile and admiration in her eyes.
"Dad, if I accidentally killed a baron, would you be so tolerant of me?"
Moriah looked at the rebellious Kelly and said, "I will personally send you to the Black Tower."
Kelly was angry and the dinner was not pleasant at all.
Dad is too partial.
Grand Duke Moria knew his daughter Kelly very well. No one in the entire capital dared to provoke her. If she really killed a baron, it must be because she was dissatisfied with the baron. It was absolutely impossible that the baron forced her to do anything.
Thinking of this, Grand Duke Moria also had a headache. Was it because he doted on Kelly too much that she developed this habit?
I hope her future husband will not care too much about her youthful recklessness and be able to tolerate everything about her.
Parker, Diane and Angelina all lowered their heads and ate the melon in silence, fearing that their aunt would vent her anger on them.
Li En suddenly asked, "Grandpa, do you know Budd Manor?"
