It was one of the two ladies who had led him that afternoon when he went to scout out Burning Night.

The delicate and soft touch at that time seems to still linger between my fingers, but now we are separated by life and death.

Name: Liya

Age: 21 years old

Home address: Moore Orphanage, Moore Street, East End, Highland.

Personal profile: "Liya was taken in by Mrs. Marian in the Moore Orphanage since she was a child."

"When she was 16, Mrs. Marian passed away and the orphanage had limited relief funds."

“To ensure the basic living conditions of other children in the orphanage and prevent them from starving and freezing.”

"16-year-old Liya went to the Burning Night Theater after being introduced by someone...

"In the end, he unfortunately passed away due to being affected by the extraordinary pollution."

Eros finished reading the information in silence and turned to the next page.

However, he had seen the person who appeared on the next page before, and it was the other of the two ladies.

Name: Tina

Age: 19 years old

Home address: 1045, Stinky Ditch Street, East District, Haidaram.

Personal profile: "She originally came from a well-off family. Both her parents were employees of Sino-Ocean Group. She has a younger brother who is ten years younger than her."

"But in January of the previous year, both my parents suddenly became seriously ill and were hospitalized in a coma."

"After months of hospitalization and facing increasingly high medical bills, the family's savings were exhausted."

"In order to support her parents and take on the responsibility of raising her younger brother, the 17-year-old girl was in urgent need of money."

"After being introduced by someone, I came to the Burning Night Theater..."

"In the end, he unfortunately passed away due to being affected by the extraordinary pollution."

Eros narrowed his eyes and scrolled down silently.

After flipping through the first few chapters and discovering that the people who appeared later were all clients of prostitutes, Eros threw the list of dead in his hand onto the table.

He leaned back and rested his entire body on the back of the chair.

After a while, Daisy came back. Seeing this, Eros said in a gentle tone:

"Ms. Daisy, the families of these deceased have not been informed of their deaths yet, right?"

Daisy shook her head: "It's just like what I said before, because we can't give out the ashes of the deceased."

"But I just asked the captain, and he said that David's idea is feasible, so the family of the deceased will probably be notified of the victim's death this afternoon."

Hearing this, Eros smiled:

"Can I take care of the families of the two deceased people, Liya and Tina, on the list?"

Daisy had obviously seen the list. She was stunned for a moment before exclaiming:

"Mr. Kernan is such a kind gentleman."

This seems to be the third Nice Guy card today? Eros didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

……

In the afternoon, inside the Moore Orphanage, a boy about twelve or thirteen years old sat at the gate and kept looking at the street outside.

His name is Allen, and he is the oldest child in the Moore Orphanage except for his sister Liya.

Usually when Sister Liya is not around, he is the one who takes care of her younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage.

He also thought about finding a job outside to relieve the pressure on Sister Liya.

But if he goes to work, there will be no one to take care of his younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage.

So he had to stay in the yard and watch Sister Liya raise more than twenty children by herself.

"Brother Allen! Brother Allen! Is Sister Liya back?" Suddenly, a childish voice sounded in Allen's ears.

Allen forced a smile on his face, rubbed the child's head in front of him, and said firmly and forcefully:

"Sister Liya will be back soon! Please wait a little longer..."

After comforting the little guy, Allen looked towards the street outside the courtyard gate again, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.

Sister Liya hasn't been back for almost two days. He has said the same comforting words to her countless times in the past two days.

Although there was enough food in the hospital for the time being, he always felt uneasy when he didn't see anyone coming back.

Just at this moment, as he watched, a middle-aged butler in butler's clothes was walking towards the gate of Moore Orphanage.

Allen looked at the newcomer with a vigilant look. The middle-aged housekeeper didn't care and walked straight to the door of the orphanage. He smiled at Allen who was sitting by the door and said:

"Hello! Young sir, is this Ms. Liya's home?"

When the middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper mentioned Sister Liya, Allen's eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly asked:

"Do you know where Sister Liya is?"

The butler smiled and said, "Of course I know!"

"Where is Sister Liya?" Allen grabbed the sleeve of the housekeeper in front of him with some excitement.

The butler didn't care about the rude behavior of the child in front of him, and still smiled and said:

"Ms. Liya is now preparing to follow a distinguished viscount to the capital of the empire, Intiles."

"It was she who entrusted me to deliver this news to you."

Upon hearing this, Allen's pupils shrank sharply, and he shouted in disbelief:

"Impossible, Sister Liya, impossible..."

At this point, he seemed to remember that there were many children in the yard behind him who were paying attention to what was happening here, so he held back the words that were on the tip of his tongue, lowered his voice and said angrily:

"Sister Liya will never abandon us, you are slandering her!"

The housekeeper laughed dumbly and said, "I didn't say that Ms. Liya abandoned you!"

"On the contrary, Ms. Liya also asked me to exchange the money she sent every month for daily necessities and give them to you."

"So that you won't have to worry about food and clothing in the future."

Allen was stunned. After a while, he said with some disappointment:

"Then why did Sister Liya go to Intiles? Wouldn't it be better to stay in Haidaram?"

Looking at the depressed boy in front of him, the butler said in a gentle tone:

"Has Ms. Liya told you about her job?"

Allen nodded, and a hint of pride appeared on his face when he spoke of this:

"Sister Liya said that she works as a senior maid in a big shot's house, and that generous big shot pays her 5 pounds a week!"

The housekeeper nodded, his tone still gentle: "Now that big shot thinks that Ms. Liya is doing a very good job, so he made Ms. Liya the head maid of the family, and her weekly salary has also increased to 10 pounds!"

Allen opened his mouth wide, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

A weekly salary of £10 is enough for a person to live a decent life in a big city like Haidalum.

Of course, the premise is that you can't keep a bunch of encumbrances.

Looking at the shocked boy in front of him, the butler smiled and continued:

"The big shot that Ms. Liya mentioned is the distinguished Viscount I just mentioned."

"Now that the Viscount has decided to go to Intiles, Ms. Liya, as the head maid, will naturally go with him."

"If you continue to stay in Haidaram, Ms. Liya may not be able to meet such a generous employer again, and she will not be able to provide you with enough living supplies."

Allen pursed his lips. It turned out that the reason why Sister Liya went to the distant Intiles was to let everyone live a better life.

Although he still felt a little lost, he gradually understood Sister Liya's choice.

The butler looked at Allen's gradually changing expression, smiled and continued:

"So, young sir, I think you can understand Ms. Liya's difficulties, right?"

"She didn't abandon you, but she had to do this for your future life."

"Of course, you don't have to worry that Ms. Liya will forget you in the future. She has never forgotten you. Her entrustment to me is proof of this."

Allen was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said:

"I understand. Please say hello to Sister Liya for me and tell her that we will take good care of ourselves and she doesn't need to worry."

The butler smiled and nodded, "I'll pass it on, young sir."

"Then I'll take my leave first. I will deliver the daily necessities on time every month from now on."

After saying this, the butler bowed slightly, turned around and left.

Allen silently watched the housekeeper's departing back, praying in his heart that Sister Liya would have all the best in the future.

He knew that from this moment on, they would have to start adapting to life without Sister Liya around.

And he will try to become stronger and take good care of everyone as Sister Liya expects.
