A slum southeast of Odo town.

This is a slum where poverty and death gather together. People's eyes are full of numbness, with no hope of survival, and they are as muddy as walking corpses. In the crowded tide, it exudes a disgusting stench.

Rebanna, Cliff and Ai Geli were wrapped in linen cloaks, and their appearance could not be seen clearly under the linen. They blended in well with the crowd and didn't look out of place at all. Wrap yourself tightly, like a monster afraid of the sun.

This kind of dress should be eye-catching, but the slums southeast of Odo Town are simply hell on earth, and no dress here will look out of place. The man who was tortured by drugs and left indelible marks was as ugly as an evil ghost crawling out of hell.

Cliff just looked at the man's appearance out of curiosity. What kind of face was hidden under the cloak? Cliff regretted it. For the first time, he regretted his curiosity. If he had the choice, he would rather Choose to dig out your eyes instead of looking at that person's appearance.

Margery walked up to the man whom Cliff had offended, handed him a piece of bread, and gave him a gentle smile.

The person who was offended by Cliff left, and Cliff asked in a low voice: Margery, aren't you scared? You know, that is a monster. Didn't you notice how ugly he is? My whole body is covered in blood. It’s goosebumps! I want to dig out my eyes.”

Margery looked at Cliff with a very bad expression, angry and disgusted, as if he was looking at a piece of shit. She did not reply to Cliff. The people here are all kind and sad civilians. They were affected by the war. He lost his home, and because of Marshall, he became a human being and a ghost.

Cliff has no mercy for such a group of pitiful people.

With a cold snort, Margery walked to Rebanna's side. She found that Rebana had no such thoughts, nor did he have the idea of ​​discriminating against these people.

Margery asked: Rebanna, what do you think of these people?

I don't have any opinions. They are all poor people, people who have suffered and are struggling in hell. Rebanna's tone was a little sad. He could not save these people.

The slums in the southeast of Odo Town are much larger than Odo Town. The population is four or five times that of Odo Town. However, the resources here are less than one-tenth of Odo Town. Under such circumstances, it is doomed. , these people will not have a good standard of living.

And this place will be filled with killing and death. In order to survive, people will abandon the last moral bottom line between people.

Margaery said: The slums were not like this in the past. There were also many people in the slums in the southeast of Odo Town. These people were survivors who were attacked by monsters. They had no ability to work and had no choice. If you can survive, you can only live in the slums southeast of Odo Town.

I came here just to survive. There were not many people at that time. Later, robbers appeared. They were chased by bounty hunters in Odo Town and fled to the slums. For the lives of ordinary people in the slums, the Bounty Hunters Association allowed them to survive Come down.

Contrary to expectations, the thieves got a chance to breathe, and they used ordinary people in the slums as human shields. More and more thieves gathered here. Finally, Caesarru unified the thieves in this area and launched a war against Odo Town. Counterattack.”

Rebana looked into Margaery's eyes and asked, Do you regret it? If you had chosen to sacrifice these poor people, the Bounty Hunter Association would not have had such a problem.

Margaery frowned and said to Rebana, Do you think so too?

Cliff interjected: Isn't it? If you had chosen to exterminate those thieves, there would have been no Caesarlu Thief Group, and the Bounty Hunter Association would not have been driven to this slum. This was all committed by your own kindness. mistake.

Rebana shook his head. He really didn't know what to say about Cliff. Everyone had their own opinion. This was Cliff's right, and Rebana was not going to deprive him of his right.

I just disagree with what Cliff said. He said this just to see what Margaery's attitude was and whether she would regret it.

Margery snorted coldly and said, You are really stupid!

Cliff was very unhappy. He had been praised as a child prodigy since he was a child, but now he was pointed at his nose and scolded for being stupid. He couldn't get angry. Stupid? You're talking about you, right! You stupid bastards, you did things uncleanly and left hidden dangers, which led to the current situation. Why don't you even have the courage to admit your mistakes?

Rebana pulled Cliff and said, ‘Can you please stop saying a few words! ’

Why do you want me to say less? Isn't this their mistake? Are you afraid of being criticized for doing something wrong? Is this the so-called bounty hunter? Cliff shook off Rebanna's hand and faced Margo Rei questioned.

Margaery took a deep breath. For Cliff, this immature and childish child, she really wanted to give him a slap in the face, but the current situation requires tolerance. This is a teammate, and internal strife is really not what it is now. What to do when the time comes.

Cliff, you live in a sunny world, so your world is full of sunshine. You don't understand what darkness is, and you don't understand what people in the darkness need.

Cliff had no idea what Margaery was talking about. If you speak human language, say it directly. I am not a person who likes to beat around the bush. As long as what you say makes sense, I may not necessarily agree with it, but I will not refute it again.

When we first considered whether to adopt an encirclement and suppression strategy in the slums, more than two-thirds of the bounty hunters in the Bounty Association voted against it, Margaery said.

Cliff sneered: You still don't admit that your decision-making was wrong? You are a bunch of stupid people.

Margaery did not refute but continued: None of the bounty hunters who voted against it came from the slums, and those who voted for it were all from the slums.

Cliff was stunned and said doubtfully: You are wrong! How could it be like this?

You simply don't understand how much entanglement and sadness the people who voted yes have in their hearts. In order to execute the thieves, they have to personally kill the parents who raised them and the friends who grew up with them in childhood. Can you understand? Gram Reeve, have you ever had this thought? When your parents are taken hostage, will you kill them for justice?

Margaery's words echoed in Cliff's mind. Cliff didn't know, didn't understand how to choose, what decision he should make if he encountered it.

Margaery questioned Cliff and said, Tell me! What decision will you make? Kill the parents who raised you with your own hands, kill your beloved relatives and friends, or live for them like thieves?

Cliff was very irritable. He had never made such a decision before, and no one asked him to make such a decision. The only decision he made in his life was to travel around the world. I don't know, I don't know what to choose. I should choose to protect my family.

Yes! You would choose to protect your family, and why would they choose not to? Because they know that these thieves are hidden dangers and will subvert the existence of Odo Town. For the people of Odo Town, they are willing to sacrifice their families. Margery choked up as she spoke. When she sat down to make this decision, her heart was bleeding.

Cliff said harshly: But you still chose to let these thieves go, which resulted in the current situation.

'idiot! ’ After Margaery cursed, she said: “You have no idea what a wise choice it was to vote against it at that time.”

Cliff retorted: A wise choice, a wise choice is that the town of Odo is occupied by these Caesarlu thieves, a wise choice is to create a Caesarulu?

Do you know why the top brass of the Bounty Hunters Association didn't pass the siege on Kaiserru? Margaery asked.

What else could it be? Greedy for life and fear of death! What else could it be? Cliff was full of contempt for these bounty hunters. His unprincipled kindness has led to the tragedy in Odo Town now. A group of bounty hunters who are greedy for life and fear of death. Gold hunters, they don’t deserve to be called bounty hunters.

Margery sat on the steps, looking at a tall building in the distance and said: It seems that Pihou has told you nothing and hasn't told you anything! That's right! I have told you everything, so you won't come to carry out this mission. Mission accomplished.”

Rebana also sat on the steps and looked at the tall building in the distance. It was a five-story building with an old-fashioned style and looked dilapidated, but it gave Rebana a sense of danger.

What is the truth? Rebana asked. Rebana was very curious as to what the truth was and how Pihou deceived him. He really didn't sense from Pihou that he was lying.

Sun Yiming originally gathered bounty hunters to prepare to attack Marshall. However, he was attacked by monsters on the day he gathered. In that battle, the bounty hunters were defeated miserably, and all fronts collapsed, without any defense. , ordinary people in Odo Town suffered numerous casualties, and the Bounty Hunter Association lost more than half.

In which crisis, Sun Yiming died in battle. Those monsters are fully capable of killing the entire Odo Town. There will not be a single person left alive in Odo Town. Margaery couldn't help trembling when she said this, that memory It must have been terrifying for her.

During the crisis, it was Caesar who led his band of thieves into the town of Odo. They drove away the monsters and saved Odo. Otherwise, the Odo you came to see would not be a ruin, but a dead place. .”

Cliff was dumbfounded. A big bastard thief became the savior of Odo Town. He really didn't expect such a plot.

Rebanna also understood that Pihou did not lie to him but just concealed some truths. Everything Pihou said was true, so he could not sense any deception.
