It was pitch black outside the door, and everyone could only vaguely see that the person outside seemed to be a thin little girl, who should be about the same age as Sakura, but the hand she was holding on to the crack of the door was so thin that there was nothing left. Skinny, nails that haven't been trimmed for a long time are full of black mud, and they don't look much better than little beggars on the street.

Where is this trouble coming from?

Several people were a little dazed when they just woke up, and before they could react, there was already a dog barking in the alley outside, accompanied by the sound of chaotic footsteps.

The arrester came after him.

There was no time to think about too many things, and by the time Tang Zhi realized it, he had already dragged the little girl into the yard, and grabbed the little girl's wrist only to find that she was even more emaciated than he had imagined.

The wrist is just a bone wrapped in human skin, without any flesh, and it feels a little harsh to the touch.

What kind of abuse did this suffer to become like this?

Tang Zhi thought of himself in the first life. Although he didn't have a very good life when he was young, at least he was much better than this little girl.

The people outside had already chased to the gate of the small courtyard. Realizing that the people outside brought the dog, Nian Qibai picked up the little girl and ran to the kitchen. After entering the door, the man stuffed it into the large water tank in the kitchen. Then drilled in, and put the lid back on when it was done.

In the pitch-black space, not a single ray of light could penetrate, the little girl didn't cry, and her two bone-like hands tightly held Nian Qibai's arm, so obedient and obedient that it made people feel distressed.

The surroundings were filled with the sound of flowing water, and Nian Qibai didn't know what was going on outside.

In fact, he could leave the little girl alone in the water tank, but he didn't. The capacity of such a water tank is not large. After the lid is closed, it is completely a closed space. Ordinary adults can carry such a place alone. Will feel scared and flustered, let alone a little girl?

Therefore, the most important thing for him to do now is to stay with this little girl.

As for the outside...everything is covered.

I don't know how long it took before the cover was lifted from the outside, Bai Ye stood outside, reached out and took the little girl out, Nian Qibai followed suit and turned out, just as he stood still, he saw Tang Zhi frowning leaning against the kitchen door, He looked sullen.

"what happened?"

Tang Zhi shook his head, "Wait a minute, first boil some hot water for Hua Niang to wash the little girl. You go and change your clothes yourself."

After such a meal, it was almost dawn, Nian Qibai changed his clothes, went to the kitchen to cook a pot of millet porridge, and made a few simple dishes.

Originally, I wanted to say that we would go to the market to buy some steamed buns for everyone to eat together, but seeing the current situation, the steamed stuffed buns are impossible to eat.

When the millet porridge was cooked, Hua Niang hadn't tidied it up yet.

While taking a bath, Hua Niang discovered that the little girl's back was mottled with various wounds, some of which had begun to scab, half-frozen flesh and clothes that were so dirty that they couldn't tell the color were stuck together. It's hard to even take it off.

She could only cut up the little girl's clothes little by little while holding the scissors, and then pick out the pieces of clothes that were embedded in the flesh and blood little by little.

How painful it must be!

Even though her whole face was so painful that her face turned pale, the little girl bit her lip and didn't even dare to make a sound. Seeing this, Hua Niang couldn't hold back, and hugged the little girl until she hiccupped and hiccupped directly. The little girl was stunned by crying, and then she helped the little girl clean up her wounds while hiccupping.

"It's not human at all!" Seeing Bai Ye carrying the little girl back to the bed, Hua Niang wiped her tears and sniffed, "Look at the wounds on her body, I feel pain just looking at them."

Although Hua Niang was picked up and raised by the boss of Qingyue Pavilion since she was a child, but, to be fair, she has rarely been injured at this age, not to mention being beaten.

The first time I saw such a young child covered in bruises, tears couldn't stop falling down.

When she cried like this, the elders present couldn't stand it anymore. Originally, a small one was very distressing, but now a big one was added...

Tang Zhi and Nian Qibai were not the same at all, and in the end, Bai Ye coaxed people to eat breakfast before feeding the little girl.

Considering the little girl's physical condition, Nian Qibai only prepared a small half bowl of millet porridge for the little girl, mixed some sugar into it and had a little taste, and then asked Hua Niang to bring it into the house to feed the little girl to drink.

After the little girl fell asleep after drinking the porridge, the four of them chatted around the low stone table in the small courtyard.

First of all, it is about the little girl herself. After exchanging information with Hua Niang, Nian Qibai and Hua Niang concluded that this is a very sensible and obedient little girl who has been bullied and oppressed for a long time.

Then there are Tang Zhi and Bai Ye.

When the people outside the house knocked on the door with their dogs yesterday, Tang Zhi asked Hua Niang to avoid him, and he and Bai Ye came forward. Among the people who chased yesterday, Tang Zhi knew how many people.

These people are all servants of the Yellow Mansion in the east of the city, and one of them once took something to the grocery store to repair it, because it was a mechanical watch that was in good condition, so Tang Zhi still had a little impression.

"One of the people yesterday was from the upper city." When Bai Ye said this, the disgust on his face was obvious. "I had a business relationship with their family once or twice, and it didn't feel very good."

Everyone knows Bai Ye's identity, the actual person in charge of the Bai family in Shangcheng.

And the Bai family is the number one business family in the upper city. In the entire upper city, you can definitely find traces of the Bai family in everything related to business transactions. Even in the northern city, a large part of the business chain is with the Bai family. There are detached.

Since Bai Ye said that this person came from the city, it is likely that he did not run away.

I just don't know whether the little girl sleeping in the room is from the Huang's family in Beicheng or Shangcheng.

"You can only ask after someone wakes up."

Tang Zhi didn't think he was an impulsive person, but he didn't regret saving the little girl on impulse this time, and he would still do it again if it happened again.

Perhaps it was due to male chauvinism, in short, he couldn't watch a little girl die in front of his eyes.

Of course, it would be even better if it can be proved that he did not help the wrong person after asking the matter clearly.

Hello everyone, here is the street writer who has started to get busy again in the third dimension...

Ah, although I know that the most annoying thing about chasing articles is not updating, but I am also very desperate for so many homework...

I can only try my best to get time code words to provoke _(:з”∠)_
