"Don't rush to thank me. Let's talk about what's happening now. This little girl is..."

"Her name is Lenore, my new sister~ Isn't she cute?"

Yu Shui saw that the little girl Lessing was holding was already drowsy, but due to Yu Shui's arrival and the conversation just now, the sleepiness gradually dissipated, so that he saw another big brother coming into the room.

"Hmm... Brother Lessing, are there any guests here... Huh? I know you, you are Brother Yu Shui from Merlot Petersburg!"

"Even children know me? What an honor."

Yu Shui turned around and closed the door of the cell, found a chair and sat down, crossed his legs, and looked at the three people in front of him with interest.

But in fact, the main thing is the short man with gray hair standing at the back. At this moment, he is also looking at Yu Shui. He obviously looks young, but his eyes are as calm as an old man.

Lenore seemed to be a little curious and a little scared because of Yu Shui's arrival. In fact, she had only followed Brother Catpila to see Yu Shui standing in the arena and competing with the Duke from a distance. She knew that he was in Mei It is very famous in Petersburg.

The rest are unknown.

He saw the big brother with blue eyes looking at Brother Lessing and Brother Carter with questioning eyes.

"I remember that the previous administrator of Merlo Petersburg strictly prohibited the union between men and women in order to prevent the prison from turning into a doll paradise. The Duke also continued this rule after he took office. What happened to these two children? It won’t be a prisoner’s personal…tsk.”

"You can say that, but thank you for not saying that word, Mr. Yu Shui... Also, I am not a child. This is the first time we meet. My name is Catpila, an ordinary prisoner."

"Oh~~I can see it."

Yu Shuihui believes that only "ordinary people" can have ghosts.

In the concession canteen before, Lessing said that he wanted to ask for help, but now that he saw this scene, he probably already knew what the favor was.

A child who was born and raised in prison cannot see the sky outside the prison because he is burdened with his mother's original sin. I don't know the relationship between Katpila and this little girl, but they are most likely friends.

"Where are Lenore's parents? Is it possible that both of them have passed away?"

"Yes, she is now under the care of me and some kind guards, but it is obvious that Lenore is not registered on the prison list of Melo Petersburg and is a blacklist here."

"So Lessing... the favor she wants from me is to help her get her out of Merlot Petersburg, right~?"

"Yes."

Lessing found that they didn't seem to have talked too much. Yu Shui himself had already guessed everything on his own and took the initiative in the matter.

Lenore didn't seem to know what these brothers were talking about, just as she didn't know what "passed away" meant, but she could still tell that Carter and Lessing wanted to send her away from Merlot Petersburg.

"Well, actually I think Merlot Petersburg is quite good. My brothers and sisters who are the guards are all very nice to me."

"But you shouldn't live in this dark seabed with prisoners and guards. You should have a freer and happier life, right?"

Catpila walked to Lessing's side and gently touched Lenore's head, trying to make Lenore realize this... However, the clear confusion in her eyes made Catpillar sigh.

Yu Shui said nothing, but there was some thought in his eyes. He was thinking about the possibility of such a thing being done, and...why he had to help?

This kind of thing should be helped by the good old man Kong Na.

"Last question, Lessing, what do you have to do with this matter? Don't tell me that you saw a confused little girl on the road. The heart that had been transformed by the abyss suddenly felt compassion and decided to help the homeless man in prison. The poor girl is free?"

"Uh…"

This long string of words sounded like there was a little bit of ridicule in it, and of course it was more of a joke, but there was no need to hide this from Yu Shui.

He is also considered a relevant person.

"I asked him for help. I think as a member of the Fontainebleau Patrol, he once had some collegiality with me and might have helped, but it turned out that he was powerless."

"Hey... don't say it so bluntly, Catpila!"

Being powerless... refers to the fact that Katpila asked Lessing for help to secretly send Lenore out a few days ago. As a result, he, a member of the special patrol, couldn't do it at all.

Now he can't even leave by himself, and has to be questioned by Xia Volei.

Let's use the power of the abyss... His transformation is not complete yet, he cannot mobilize the earth veins to build the portal, and he has no skills at all, so he is stuck here awkwardly.

That's why I tried to find Yu Shui to help.

"Colleague...? I seem to understand."

Yu Shui's feeling was correct. He could detect something wrong with Catpila. If he looked at him purposefully with eyes looking for the power of the abyss, he could easily see that he was special.

And his hands... were black, covered with strange patterns. Yu Shui had seen such hands before, on the Qiuqiu people, and... on Arecino's body.

It turned out to be another person related to the Narcissus Cross Society.

...It’s so annoying. The Abyss Apostles on the left and the Qiuqiu people on the right in Merlo Petersburg are all related to the Cross Society, and they happened to be during the invasion of the Abyss forces.

"Because of the recent invasion of the Abyss, you feel that your safety has been threatened, so you are eager to send her away? I understand, but whether you really want to help or not I reserve the decision for the time being."

Yu Shui patted the non-existent dust on his legs, stood up and stretched out casually~ After all, it was night, and he was a little sleepy.

"Let me go back and ask the Duke first. After all, I am not an assistant in charge now. I am just a small prisoner. I have no right to make any decisions. Let's go."

Before leaving, Yu Shui subconsciously glanced at Lenore, the most innocent little girl in the whole thing. She was born unlucky. Her mother gave birth to her in prison and passed away. But from a certain perspective, She said she was extremely lucky and met someone who was willing to help her.

Inexplicably, I think of myself when I was a child...

Watching the cell door open and close, Catpila pondered for a while and looked at Lessing.

"This is the first time I've met him, so I can't tell the difference...his attitude."

"But I feel that this matter is almost certain."

Lessing smiled confidently.

"Mr. Yu Shui is kind-hearted, not to mention...I also helped him. Reciprocity is what friends should do, isn't it?"

……

"Huh? You're back. How was the Seven Saints summons? Did you lose the charter?"

When Yu Shui just returned to the second floor of the office, what he heard was the teasing voice of a certain Duke coming from behind the office. He smiled helplessly and saw Leosley put down the account book in his hand.

"You lose, you lose completely. Why don't you come back and ask for some pocket money~ Hey Leosley, let me ask you something. If a prisoner serving his sentence in Melo Petersburg gives birth to a child, does that child need it? What if I become a prisoner here like my parents?"

"Oh? Ask me what I'm doing. We two can't have children, Ayu."

"...Don't be ridiculous."

Leosli's eyes were full of cunning when he answered, and his witticisms made everyone's hearts flutter. He watched Yu Shui sit down opposite him and poured him a cup of hot tea from a cup.

"Logically speaking, if the parents have not served their sentence, the children born in the prison must also serve the sentence together. However, due to the decree left by the former warden, there are generally no newborns in Merlot Petersburg."

"What if? What if a prisoner gets pregnant unexpectedly, but can't bear to abort this new life, secretly gives birth to a child and hides her, and then dies for some reason soon after? That child is in Merlo Petersburg Without my parents, do I still need to serve a sentence?"

"Tsk... I seem to know what job you just took without telling me."
