While sighing, she also deliberately glanced at Bai Ming a few times, fearing that others would not be able to see her little thoughts.

"Ah~" Another sigh.

Bai Ming finally spoke: "What's the matter?"

"you caught me."

Kallen chuckled, shook his thigh, and blinked her bright blue eyes in a coquettish and cute manner.

"Can you go somewhere with me?"

Because she didn't see the match girl this morning and was worried that she might be cold and hungry during this period, Karen felt that she should go and see her, otherwise she would be worried.

"Okay, where do you want to go?"

Even if I'm not allowed to go, I won't be able to calm down, Bai Ming thought.

When she heard that they were going out, Rita considerately put on a thick cotton coat for Karen, helped her put on her hat, and tied a bow at the collar to prevent it from being blown off by the strong wind.

"Master Kallen, don't get cold."

At this moment, little Karen wrapped in cotton clothes has changed from a white-haired ball to a small potato.

"No, no, the physical condition of my Kaslana family is top-notch."

"But be careful, after all, catching a cold is very uncomfortable."

The three of them set out.

When I opened the door, there was thick snow outside and a cloudless blue sky. The sun was shining brightly, but it was bitterly cold.

Little Karen was holding a straight wooden stick picked up on the road, leading the two people in front. Her short legs in long boots stepped on the snow one step at a time, leaving footprints along the way.

Soon, the two entered the city and came to a street.

At this time, her steps became quicker, as if she was playing hide-and-seek, looking for her hiding friends at the end of the alley.

"Lady Kallen, who are you looking for? Tell us and maybe we can help you." Rita asked.

"Find someone. Anyway, you don't know him..."

As she spoke, Kallen continued to search.

"That's strange. She's usually here."

Karin knew something about the family situation of the match girl. Her stepmother would never allow her to eat plain rice at home. In this kind of weather, she would definitely kick her out.

Suddenly, Karen thought of something bad. Could he have died?

Although I sent her a piece of clothing last time, what if it was snatched away by her stepmother?

Wearing such thin clothes, it is not enough to last long in such a cold day.

Thinking of this, Karen's heart sank, and she looked around hurriedly.

Just then, she saw a piece of cheap cloth exposed under the snow in a corner of the wall.

No way? No way? The moment Kallen saw the cloth, her eyes widened and her heart beat faster. She felt like something was missing, and she quickly dropped the stick in her hand and went to dig.

As if he couldn't feel the cold at all, Wan dug out handfuls of snow, and underneath was a frozen corpse.

But it wasn’t the one selling matches.

Even so, Kallen stood there for a long time, unable to let go.

Karen is kind-hearted, and Francis taught her about life at an early age, which makes her inevitably sad even when she sees someone she doesn't know die.

Bai Ming was indifferent and sighed in his heart. He couldn't bear to see this.

Just like what I said before, the little match girl is just a microcosm of society, not just one person.

On this street, in some corner, there may be several children buried under the snow.

Compared with the rotten old undeads in the current destiny, Otto is better.

It is true that he used any means necessary to achieve his goal, but that does not prevent him from making contributions to most people and to the world. We should look at his merits and demerits, right and wrong separately.

"Let's go, someone will take care of it." Bai Ming said.

There is no need to care about the current state of this society.

The people’s dissatisfaction will grow higher and higher until it can no longer be tolerated, and they will launch a vigorous revolutionary wave to overthrow the current mandate of heaven.

In the original plot: As the high-pressure rule of the Mandate of Heaven gradually lost popularity, the people raised the banner of "Saint Kallen" and began to resist. In order to prevent Kallen's name from being tainted with failure again, Otto responded to the call of the people and led the coalition forces to annihilate the troops of the Mandate of Heaven's capital in 1491 and became the archbishop.

The cause today will determine the result tomorrow.

This is a historical inevitability. Even if there is no Otto, there will be Green Otto and Dog Otto. There will always be someone who stands up to overthrow the unpopular government.

…………

Karen didn't bother looking for it anymore. She turned around and went to a family's house. After asking, she was completely disappointed.

Not at home, and in such weather, he would probably be frozen to death outside like that person just now.

Kallen was very young, but she knew a lot. She knew that most of the nobles disliked these poor people.

However, the vast majority of ordinary people and the poor can barely take care of themselves and their families, let alone adopt a child.

The probability is not zero, it’s just very small, as small as seeing a pearl fragment on the snow.

"I'm looking for someone, but she seems to be gone. She had blond hair and blue eyes. She was about three years older than me. She had no name. When I first saw her..."

As she spoke, Kallen suddenly choked up and her voice gradually became hoarse.

"Okay, let's go back."

Bai Ming interrupted, took her hand and led her home.

"You know what? After a kind person dies, his soul will ascend to a paradise built by a fat pink lady. There is no hunger or cold there, only beauty and happiness."

"Paradise? Pink fat woman?" Little Karen's eyes were filled with great doubts.

"The pink fat lady's name is Alicia..."

Bai Ming told the story of Alicia as he walked.

Little Karen's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if she was encouraged. She raised her hands excitedly and shouted:

“I want to be someone like Alicia in the future, but I can’t do it like her right now. But I will work hard and take it step by step with my feet on the ground.

First of all, let the people of this country have enough food and clothing, so that they don’t have to endure hunger, bitter cold, and struggling for survival. "

Bai Ming touched her head and encouraged her: "You can definitely do it."

"Do beautiful, pure and flawless people really exist in this world?"

Rita knew that the former civilization point existed, but she didn't know the details, and she knew nothing about Yingjie.

Otto had never told her that there was information in the core database of Destiny, but it was too scattered and fragmented, with too little useful information. She was more inclined to believe that this was a story Bai Ming made up to comfort Karen.

A character that is too perfect actually feels unreal.

"Of course." Bai Ming nodded. "In the pre-civilization era, one of the thirteen fire-chasing heroes of the anti-Honkai organization Fire Moth, ranked "2", and engraved with the mark of 'True Self', Alicia."

"Then she is truly admirable," Rita said with a smile.

Who says it isn't true, Bai Ming thought, no one can refuse Ai Lishia.

"So in the end, Alicia must have completed her dream paradise, right?" asked little Karen.

She raised her head and looked at Bai Ming with great anticipation, as if she wanted to get a perfect answer.

"Alisa is dead." Bai Ming blurted out habitually.

After realizing it, he quickly shut up.

But it was too late.

After hearing this, Karen's eyes were filled with mist.

Lies don't hurt people, the truth is a sharp knife, and she was hurt by it.

Rita was a little troubled and complained:

"Master Bai Ming, even if you are lying, can't you give your child some hope for a better future?"

Bai Ming: “…next time for sure.”
