Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

He really couldn't imagine that such a thing could happen in this era.

This matter is very simple to explain, and there is not even any beginning, development, climax or end.

In a nutshell, it was a tragedy in which a group of soldiers broke into the village and started burning, killing and looting.

When Hen and Raven arrived, the other party had already packed up everything and was ready to leave.

But seeing the two men approaching, the soldiers who had just finished a robbery obviously felt that they were lucky to have come across this extra reward.

After all, the off-road vehicle driven by Raven was actually very nice, and the two of them were both handsome and beautiful. The clothes they were wearing were expensive, and they didn't look like they were carrying any weapons. The only difference was that they had the word "fat sheep" written on their faces.

As expected, the soldiers raised their rifles at them, and then... nothing happened.

All I can say is that these people died in a very unpeaceful way.

"What are you going to do with this child?" Raven pointed at the girl the boy was holding and said, "She is probably the only one alive in the whole village."

The cruelty of the methods used by these soldiers was so great that even the mercenaries who had seen a lot of the world could not help but be surprised.

The cause of all this could perhaps be attributed to a simple lack of food, because she and Shi Hen found a large amount of packaged food in each other's cars.

Well, these were all things looted from the village.

"Let's wait until she wakes up. We can't just leave her here like this."

Speaking softly, Shi Hen stroked the hair on the girl's forehead.

Looking at the young man with a gentle expression, Raven opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just nodded slightly and said:

"……it is good."

Chapter 41 I also like little rabbits

"are you awake?"

As soon as Peggy opened her eyes, she heard a pleasant voice and a handsome man was sitting by a bonfire, looking at her.

No, perhaps he should not be called a man. The other person did not look much older than himself, and his face was as delicate and flawless as the cakes displayed in the window.

“…Did you save me?”

Peggy opened her mouth and spoke, her voice was so hoarse that even she could feel it, and her throat was so dry that it felt like it was on fire.

"It seems that your memory is still normal." Nodding slightly with satisfaction, Shi Hen handed a small bowl to the girl, "Drink some of this, you will feel better."

Nodding, Peggy emerged from the blanket and took the small bowl while carefully looking around.

This seems to be a hunter's cabin. The house is not big. Apart from the campfire in the middle and the pretty boy sitting on one side, there are only some simple daily necessities around.

Peggy held the small bowl in both hands and lowered her head to drink a mouthful of soup. She felt a warm current rushing straight from her throat to her heart, and then quickly flowing to her limbs and bones. Her whole body seemed to become warm.

But soon, the memory before she lost consciousness began to revive, and the biting cold surrounded the girl again.

"Is everyone...dead?"

Peggy asked the question in a trembling voice, moving her lips.

"..." Looking at the girl who was shaking all over like a frightened animal, Shi Hen could not help but remain silent for a moment, then chose to confess, "Well, if you are asking the people in that village, they are all dead."

Even if she was hiding in that abandoned cellar, the girl should have been aware of what was happening, and lies would not have fooled her.

Moreover, Shi Hen was too lazy to weave lies to make the girl live in a false world.

Although it is pitiful, since we live in such a world, we have to face this reality.

The world will not change according to one's will.

At least, the girl who was trembling in front of Shi Hen couldn't do it.

In an instant, the girl's eyes were filled with tears, and tears as big as beans rolled down her cheeks and fell into the soup.

However, the other person did not cry. He just raised his hand to wipe his tears and continued to drink the soup.

Glancing at the girl who was crying silently, Shi Hen poked the fire with a branch. He didn't say anything to let the other party cry out loud, saying that he had a shoulder to lean on.

He didn't intend to keep the other person with him all the time.

Eventually, the girl has to learn to face this cold world alone.

Although considering that the other party seemed to be only eleven or twelve years old, this was a bit too cruel.

"My name is Peggy."

After drinking the soup, the girl sat closer to the fire, stealing glances at Shi Hen with cautious eyes while introducing herself.

"Hen, just call me Hen."

Shi Hen spoke lightly, his voice was neither gentle nor cold, just like the sunshine in the coldest time of winter, seemingly warm but without any extra temperature.

"Um, Mark?"

As if she had noticed something from Shi Hen's indifference, Peggy looked at the boy tentatively and called out softly.

Shi Hen nodded.

He didn't want to be the other person's brother or father, so a simple relationship like this was enough between them.

He just happened to encounter this incident and saved a person, that's all.

"I am thirteen years old."

Peggy said as she stared at the fire, glancing at the boy out of the corner of her eye.

"Oh."

But Shi Hen simply responded without any intention of telling his age.

But, thirteen years old?

Taking a look at the skinny girl who looked no more than twelve years old, Shi Hen could only conclude that she was malnourished, just like a certain Bronya whose name was not to be revealed.

From 2012 to 2016, Yulandel has transformed from a cute girl into a long-legged mature woman, but Bronya is still an underage loli.

This is a truly sad story.

"I like rabbits. They are furry and cute."

Paige continued.

"Yeah, I like it too. Their meat is delicious."

Shi Hen acted as a good topic terminator.

Peggy: “…”

There's absolutely no way to chat today.

The girl has deeply felt that there is a pitiful and thick barrier between herself and the boys around her.

But despite this, Peggy was still unwilling to give up easily.

"Those... people who rushed into the village with guns, they... did you see them?"

Paige stumbled.

But as soon as the words came out of her mouth, the girl couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

Isn't this just pure nonsense?

If the other party really encountered that group of devils, how could he still be sitting in front of him safely?

But contrary to Peggy's expectations, the boy just nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I saw them. They are dead too."

"They...are all dead?"

The girl opened her mouth wide, seemingly unable to believe it.

"They're all dead, I killed them."

Glancing at the girl, Shi Hen said indifferently, as if it was something as small as the wind blowing in front of him and not worth mentioning.

For Shi Hen, killing a group of ordinary soldiers was indeed a simple and easy thing.

crackling——

The flame jumped for a moment, and Peggy seemed to have received some signal. She opened her mouth and burst into tears: "Wooooooa ...

Covering her face with her hands, the girl's body trembled constantly, and her hoarse cries echoed and swirled in the hut, as if she wanted to vent all the fear and sadness of missing out in one breath.

What a hassle...

Looking at the crying girl, Shi Hen couldn't help but think in his heart.

That's why he doesn't want to meddle in other people's business.

But, now that he had taken care of it, Shi Hen seemed unable to just walk away.

After a long time, the girl's crying gradually subsided.

"Give."

Shi Hen patiently waited until the other person's emotions stabilized a little before handing him a wet towel.

"Thank...Thank you."

Peggy whispered as she took the towel and wiped the wet marks off her face.

"Do you have relatives elsewhere?"

Shi Hen finally asked the first question in their conversation so far.

Hearing the boy's words, Peggy was slightly stunned. After a long silence, she slowly shook her head and said, "I escaped from the orphanage."

"so……"

Shi Hen sighed.

No more words are needed, this one sentence is enough to explain the girl's rough first half of her life.

Not every orphanage is called Cocolia.

In Siberia, many orphanages are actually set up by the military, which is responsible for uniformly training these children who have lost their families due to war and chaos, and then using them to create more war and chaos.

What kind of [servant] behavior is this?

Shi Hen couldn't help but complain in his heart, thinking that these guys should go to another set.

But then again, these people's behavior is actually quite reasonable. After all, is there any cheaper labor in the world than orphans?

Even with just a piece of bread and a few rags, you can get a loyal subordinate.

As for the unfaithful...you can choose to feed them a peanut.

Moreover, due to the existence of Honkai energy in this world, even the crude training methods of the Siberian military can occasionally produce some amazingly powerful beings.

For example, the Ural Silver Wolf.

In this land, the Ural Silver Wolf is even more famous than the Raven.

As a result, these people became more enthusiastic about training orphans. After all, everyone wanted to raise another Ural Silver Wolf.

A bunch of short-sighted guys...

This is the only evaluation Shi Hen could make about these people.

They were just hoping for another Ural Silver Wolf, but Cocolia had already chosen to cling to Anti-Entropy and even hooked up with the World Serpent, and was no longer on the same track as this group of people.

Not only was he able to become an anti-entropy executor, he almost became the leader of the anti-entropy alliance.

This is the difference.

So when Bronya assassinated Cocolia, the other party turned around and killed the little wolf instantly.

In front of someone who truly masters the power of Honkai, no matter how famous your name, the Ural Silver Wolf, is, you will be killed in seconds.

Even such a Bronya almost topped the list of Charon, which shows how watery this killer list is.

As I said, who would want to be a killer if they have real abilities?

While thinking about something else in his heart, Shi Hen continued to ask: "Have you thought about what to do in the future?"

It might seem ridiculous to ask a thirteen-year-old girl to think about the future.

But for Peggy, this is a reality that she has to face.

It is impossible for Shi Hen to take care of the other person for his entire life.
