In the forest, it was getting light every day, and Roland Hill woke up with a sound. When she opened her eyes, she found that Lottie was clumsily making a fire. Seeing her appearance, she didn't seem to know what to do.
"There must be a gap between the firewood, and it's better to form a hollow in the middle, so that the air can come in better and help the burning." Roland Hill said the experience he heard from adults when he was a child, and patiently taught the destitute Miss.
"Thank you." Lottie blushed slightly, but nodded anyway.
Looking at this cute girl like her sister, the corners of Loren Hill's mouth turned up slightly.
"Let's go after having some breakfast. Don't continue to spend the night outside today." Roland Hill stood up and took out the last few pieces of bread from the small package he was carrying. The two warmed it up and began to enjoy it.
In the forest after the rain, the air is extraordinarily fresh. The two quickly browsed the mountains, crossed the river and woods, and slowly arrived at the city they came to before.
After entering the city, the two of them walked on the street and soon noticed something was wrong. It seemed to be a lot quieter today.
When they walked to the square in the city, the two saw a group of people surrounded there and stepped forward, only then did they know what happened.
The investigator came to the city, arrested several wanted criminals on the run, whipped them and hanged them in the square. Today, the bodies of the two are still hanging on the high platform.
"This criminal, for violating the laws of the empire...attempting to rebel..... hanged..." Several people who were not literate looked at the notice and read the words on it word by word.
"It is estimated that it is the remnants of the Baska family..." Some people who just arrived commented casually, anyway, the affairs of those noble gentlemen have nothing to do with them.
"No, it's another group of people." A hunter with a bow pointed to the words above.
"They are revolutionary parties from other provinces of the empire."
"Revolutionary Party, what is that?" Some people were at a loss.
"It is said that there is a group of people in the Purple Shirt Province who want to imitate Crancia and overthrow the empire's rule." An uncle said in a low voice.
"That's a lot of courage, tsk tsk." A group of people shook their heads after hearing this, thinking that this is simply crazy.
"How can the empire be so easy to overthrow, and why should they let them go."
"I think no matter who comes on, it will become like this."
"Let's go... .." After saying that, several people dispersed immediately, ignoring the announcement.
After hearing about it, Roland Hill walked forward slowly, read the announcement, and then looked at the two corpses, sighing in his heart.
The so-called innovation is not such an easy thing, and it has to face the misunderstandings of more people. The great cause is always difficult in the early stage, which makes people feel hopeless.
"Let's go back."
"Yeah." Lottie looked at the dead two people, paused for a while, and then followed in the footsteps of Loren Hill.
That night, a roar of shouts and footsteps woke Roland Hill from his dream.
Open the window of the hotel, and there are groups of guards holding torches on the street. Looking at their clothes, they are all private soldiers raised by Viscount Moruo.
"Everyone! From now on, they must not leave the city." The mighty reading broke the silence of the night.
Residents of countless towns woke up from their sleep, and then opened their windows and doors in a daze to understand the sudden outbreak.
The originally loose city gates and city walls were now standing one by one. Under the leadership of the various captains, they blocked the exits of the small town and then searched from house to house.
"What happened?" A resident who got up from bed in the middle of the night opened the door and asked the guard anxiously.

"Lord Moruo lost something, and now he has to check the outsiders in the city." These casual guards in the past entered the house one by one with a cold look on their faces.
"Injustice, my lord, how can we hide people in such a small family." The resident begged, seeing the guards rudely turning over the haystacks and overturning the bed board, he felt distressed.
"Humph." After checking, the guard turned his head and led someone out of the house. Valley
"The next one."
Although there were not many guards under Viscount Moruo, there were only about 500 people, but in the face of these guards, the local residents did not dare to resist, and could only open doors from house to house and let them search.
Roland Hill was puzzled, put on his clothes, took the sword and walked out of the door with Lottie, and came to the yard. Now there are many members of the caravan gathered here, and everyone is talking in a low voice.
"Listening to Miss Charlene, Viscount Moruo seems to have lost something important, and now he is searching all over the city."
"What kind of treasure is this, so important?" Others were puzzled.
"I don't know, but I heard that Viscount Moruo was very angry and gave the guards a death order, and the result must be found out."
"It's a little troublesome now, I feel like a lot of things will happen." Although the caravan had nothing to do with this matter, they couldn't guarantee that the angry noble would transfer his anger to them.
"We can only wait for the news from Miss Charlene. She is now negotiating with the captain of the guard, Kevin."
After listening, the others sighed, then turned their heads and found Loren Hill walking downstairs.
"Is Miss Mercia awake too? It's not a peaceful night."
"Well, I also came down to find out the situation." Roland Hill nodded and asked about the current situation by the way.
bang bang bang —
Just as everyone was talking in the courtyard, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"coming."
The caravan members opened the door suspiciously, and a group of heavily armed guards stood outside the door. They wore blue smocks and chainmail, with halberds in their hands, and a few soldiers in black beside them.
"Everyone, we belong to the Roentgen Caravan, and are old friends of Lord Moruo, hehe..." The caravan member said in a dry accent, his volume getting lower and lower.
"Yes, of course I know your origins, so you are also the key suspects." The captain of the guard is not Kevin, but a man of the vulture. He is a distant relative of Viscount Moruo, and naturally he is more trusted by Moruo.
"Let the members of your caravan gather in the yard. If you hide other outsiders, you will know the result." When he said the last few words, his words suddenly turned cold, making others shiver.
"I know, I know... .." The young man was obviously a little scared, and responded quickly, then ran back and greeted everyone to bring their companions out of the room.
Looking at the scene in front of him, the captain of the guard was not satisfied. He waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him rushed into the yard like wolves, hurried up the stairs, and opened the door in a burst of exclamation. A quick inspection of each of these hideouts.
Listening to the sound from upstairs, the captain of the guard showed a satisfied smile, and then looked at the people in the yard one by one with his hands behind his back.
"You, and you, come out for me." Soon, he focused his attention on the two beautiful girls.
In the darkness of the torchlight, the beautiful faces and postures of these two girls stood out in the crowd, especially the blond girl, whose hair was like golden threads under the flames. , soft and moving.
