"Why, you can't stand it in just a few days? Didn't you swear that you could make everyone live in peace?" Hong Lei teased Xiang Li. When the conflict broke out in the first scene, she patted her chest and said that it was all handed over to her.

"I didn't expect that there would be such trouble." Xiang Fei's face suddenly collapsed. "One one on the left and the other on the right, it seems like things can never be finished. I was arrested at four o'clock this morning to work. If this continues, I will die of overwork sooner or later!"

Xiang Li's little mouth immediately pouted. Her personality is similar to that of Hong Lei in one aspect, and she doesn't like to do such complicated work.

Kasui was complaining, and Hinata walked in from outside in depression. She looked up at Hong Lei and Kasui, and said nothing, but walked to the table silently and sat down.

The two stared at Hinata who didn't say a word and felt something was wrong. Kaori immediately ran to Hinata and asked her, "What's wrong? Are those unlucky people causing trouble for you again!? You tell me it was that bastard! I beat him up and my mother couldn't recognize him!"

The lively Kasuki made Hinata unable to immerse herself in her world alone. She immediately shook her head and whispered, "No, it's just... I just encountered something, I don't know if it was done right."

Something happened? Hong Lei and Xiang Fei looked at each other, and then Hong Lei asked her, "What's the matter?"

Hinata seemed to be a little reluctant to speak. After hesitating for a while, she slowly spoke, "This is the thing. At three o'clock this morning, the city guards came to me and said that an incident occurred in the granary in the west of the city needed to deal with it..."

Hinata said here, and Hong Lei immediately glanced at Kaori and saw that he got up at three in the morning!

Seeing this, Kaori immediately pretended not to see Hong Lei, and then urged Hinata, "What about that?"

"Then..." Hinata sorted out the language again, and continued, "I only realized when I reached where I got, the so-called incident was actually the guards who were watching in the granary last night were killed."

"Killed?" Xiang Feng was stunned, and then immediately asked, "Why? Is there something wrong with the granary? Poisoning? Or being burned? No, it's too conspicuous if it's burned. I can't not know, so poisoning? Is it dead?"

"No, no." Hinata immediately shook her head when she heard this, "Nothing you said, no fire, no poisoning, just... some food was lost in the granary."

"Did you lose food? How much?", Hong Lei frowned. There was not much material capital in Xueyuan City. If you lose some more...

Fenghua Xiaoxue is likely to throw this problem to him!

Hong Lei immediately began to think about the matter of running away with Hinata and Kasumi in his heart.

"Not much was lost either..." Hinata's face looked a little strange, "And what was lost was not the refined grain, but the kind of grain that had not been ground wheat bran, and there were only two bags."

this……

Strictly speaking, it shouldn't be considered a loss of food.

Hong Lei and Xiang Li were both surprised and killed someone for these two bags of food? It would be too unreasonable to say it.

"Have you found the prisoner?" asked Hong Lei. He guessed that Hinata must have found it, and the other party might have had some last resort, otherwise she would not be so depressed.

"Yes, yes." Hinata pursed her lips, and then continued in Kasumi's curious eyes, "The other party is not a professional person, the method of committing the crime is very rough, and there are many traces left on the scene, so we followed these traces and quickly found the prisoner in a broken room at the foot of the city wall in the west..."

Hong Lei didn't say anything, and he even patted Xiang Li's head and told her to be honest and not to get in the way.

"That's... a woman, she brought a seven-year-old daughter and a three-year-old son. Her husband had to venture into the snowy mountains to hunt because of Fenghua Nutao's heavy taxes, but he never came back since then. The woman lived a very hard life with her two children. There were no lush forests and lush grass. They had tried their best to have a full meal. However, even so, the tax on their heads was not less than that, so in this situation where she really couldn't make it, she bets on Fenghua Xiaoxue..."

"But after she came here, life was not much better. She was alone with two children, and the speed was slow. By the time she arrived, the place was already full of people. She was an outsider and had no partner from the same village. Naturally, she was excluded by everyone and could only settle in the broken house under the city wall..."

"But no matter what, there will be no one here who will force her to sell her children and girls to 'repay' Fenghua Nutao. Sister Xiaoxue will also distribute some food. Although she may not be able to eat enough, she will not starve to death."

"But what they didn't expect was that her three-year-old son got sick due to a long journey and malnutrition, so..."

Before Hinata could finish her words, Kasumi immediately took over the conversation, "So she killed the guard and snatched the food?"

After saying that, she nodded, "Yes, it must be like this, but although she is also pitiful, is the guards she killed by her not pitiful? Why are you worried about this?"

"Because things will definitely not be that simple." When Hong Lei saw Hinata not reacting when Kasumi was talking, he knew that Kasumi had guessed wrong.

"Yes, things... aren't like this..." Hinata paused for a moment and continued, "In order to give her children a full meal, she began to sell her body under the temptation of the dead granary guard..."

"Uh...", Kasumi's face froze, Hinata was not much better either. This topic was really too early for them.

"Every time............, he would give the woman some wheat that had not ground wheat bran. Few people would notice this kind of wheat, so even if it was less, no one would notice it. Moreover, although this kind of wheat was difficult to swallow, it could fill people's stomachs, and her son's body gradually improved, but..."

"but?"

"But... the guard met the woman's seven-year-old daughter by chance, so he proposed to change the transaction object to her daughter, otherwise the transaction would be terminated..."

Booming Lei nodded, what about scum.
