Otoko Game: Male protagonists, I’m just a scumbag

"what?"

Wei Lan was a little confused. Why did they talk about a beautiful dream? If that's the case, then everyone is distributing bread. Then wouldn't it be a beautiful dream to not have to work and wait for others to distribute bread every day?

Wei Lan turned his head and asked:

"What are you talking about to a little kid?"

Phoenix let go of his hand:

"Because he is a child."

Wei Lan blinked twice and moved her lips but didn't say anything to him. She wondered what was wrong with him.

But thinking about what Phoenix said the last time he came here, he might be worried that something like this would happen.

So he looked at the child, turned around and went back to distribute the bread, thinking forget it, he would get it in the end anyway.

"Miss, you are not the masked lady, are you?"

Wei Lan was concentrating on the mechanical movements in his hands when he suddenly heard the voice. He turned around and saw that it was the familiar nun.

Not many people in the church knew her identity as a princess, and Phoenix did not emphasize it just now.

Wei Lan glanced at Phoenix and nodded to her, thinking that she had been exposed.

"Yes."

"Sure enough!" The nun suddenly raised her voice and said enviously:

"You are so beautiful. Your black hair is like the feathers of a black swan. You are elegant and noble. You are so beautiful."

"..." Wei Lan didn't know how to react for a moment, thinking that the people here were really generous with praise or bad words.

No one here has ever praised his handsomeness, everyone says that he has black hair and looks like a devil.

He looked at his female replica of himself in the mirror and felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it.

However, compliments always make people happy. After hearing the elegant and noble words, his slightly hunched back immediately straightened up and raised his head. He coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment and asked:

"what's your name?"

The brown-haired nun wearing a white scarf and a black robe immediately said:

"Miss, just call me Saya."

"Okay, Saya." Wei Lan nodded and continued to ask questions.

"Do you distribute bread here every day?"

The nun was silent for a moment before saying,

"Yes, even so, they still have difficulty in making ends meet,"

"The amount of spare money donated by the nobles to the church was even several times more than that donated to the poorhouse."

Wei Lan didn't want to ask so many questions, but the conversation made him a little silent. Those people would rather spend a lot of money on faith than spend money on doing a good deed.

But saying this is a bit like moral kidnapping. Wei Lan continued to hand out things.

"What about their parents? Aren't they working?"

When asked this question, the nun chuckled mockingly:

"It's hard for most people here to find a job. Factories won't hire people who can't even prove their identity. There are also many slaves who have fled from other places. They can't be identified, and there's no shortage of workers in the factory, so of course this will happen."

"Some people end up working in illegal factories or as sea slaves, but this can lead to people dying without their families even knowing about it."

Wei Lan nodded silently. What was the purpose of the poorhouse established by the state? After it was established, it was no longer managed.

However, he had a vague idea in his mind that he would go after this matter was completed.

The nun didn't know what he was thinking, so she continued:

"It's okay here in the workhouse. Those children and people who can't even get into the workhouse are really pitiful. Sometimes I don't know where the mercy of God is..."

After she finished speaking, she felt guilty and quickly closed her eyes, saying sorry and muttering something.

Then they came to the next location, which was locked by a large old iron gate.

There are some tall and short old houses with holes everywhere, which look uninhabitable.

"What are you going to do?"

Just as Wei Lan was about to walk in, he was stopped by someone behind him. It turned out to be Phoenix again.

"Aren't we going in?" Wei Lan asked, turning sideways.

"Miss, please go back first." Without waiting for Phoenix to reply, the nun covered her face with two layers of black gauze and said to him:

"It's better for you not to go in here."

Wei Lan took a look inside, but before he could say anything, Phoenix started walking back. Seeing this, Wei Lan had to hurry to catch up.

If he leaves, what is he doing here alone?

This stinky guy.

Wei Lan quickened his pace and followed, whistling and looking around, saying:

"I didn't expect that as a dignified religious leader, you can't even do this?"

Phoenix stopped walking, and Wei Lan also stopped, but he saw that he was staring at him without saying anything. He thought, no? Is he angry?

Thinking of the tone he had just spoken, Wei Lan still took a step closer to him and rubbed his back awkwardly:

"Don't keep your anger inside, it will easily lead to death from depression."

After saying this, he felt that it would be better not to comfort him at all.

"The princess thinks so," Phoenix stared at him sideways.

"Is it because I'm afraid of those things that I don't dare to go in?"

When he said this, Wei Lan was stunned for a moment. Before he could even open his mouth to apologize, Phoenix continued walking forward.

"Oh damn!"

Why did he just say that?

Wei Lan stood there and cursed, wondering why he was acting like he had a girlfriend and was so moody.

I didn't expect this person to be so petty. What he just said wasn't too serious, but it was somewhat of a mockery of him, so it's normal for him to be angry.

Wei Lan took a look at the figure in front of him and hurried to catch up. They did not have a carriage this time and had to walk.

But he happened to be wearing high-heeled shoes today. When he came here, his two toes were already painful from walking, and now it was even more severe after running a few steps.

"Don't walk so fast."

Wei Lan followed while shouting. In front of them was a street full of vendors and various exquisite old European-style shops.

But the person in front of him just walked on his own and ignored him. Halfway through his walk, Wei Lan was attracted by a fragrance. He turned around and found that it was freshly baked bread in someone else's store.

He wanted to eat the bread when it was distributed just now. Wei Lan glanced at the person in front of him and thought, what the hell, don’t you even know which direction the church is?

Love goes as far as it can go.

So he went into the store and bought some loaves of bread. The woman selling the bread wrapped it in brown paper for him, and he ate while coming out.

But he found that Phoenix was walking back anxiously, looking around.

Wei Lan walked over while eating.

"What are you doing?"

The moment Phoenix saw it was him, there was some redness around his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Wei Lan then realized that he was looking for him everywhere? !

Thinking of this, he wanted to laugh a little, but he didn't say it out loud:

"By the way, I also bought you some bread. I'm sorry about what happened just now."
