Chapter 201 Is that enough?
"Knock knock."
Nellie knocked on the door again, but this time she didn't speak.
As soon as there was a knock on the door, there was quick movement inside. Caesar could hear someone running into the house carrying something. The boy named Willy leaned close to the crack in the door to observe, and after discovering that it was someone from the Vatican, he slowly opened the door.
"What again?" His tone was still very impolite. Was it because he knew that the people from the Vatican would not do anything to him?
"We are here to look for Duolu."
Nellie said softly.
"She's not here."
Willy's eyes were filled with caution.
"You don't have to be so nervous, we are doing this for her own good."
"We want to take her back to the Vatican and adopt the child," Finn added.
"She won't go with you. Duolu is here and won't go anywhere." He said this, blocking the door with his small body, a stubborn look on his face, and had no intention of letting anyone in.
"It's very difficult for Duolu to live here alone, let her go back with us." Fen folded her arms and looked at him and said, "I remember that you said Duolu was helped here, that person must be you."
"Although I don't know what the relationship between you is, if you really want to help her, let her come out and make her own choice."
Finn's words were cold, but true: "If Duolu continues to stay here, there will be no way she can thrive."
"..."
Willy had no way to refute, so he bit his lips tightly and said nothing.
"I can understand how you feel."
Nellie squatted down, looked him in the eye and said, "But you also hope that Duolu can be taken better care of, right?"
"Useless."
Willy, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly said this.
"You are completely useless. The Holy See is a complete lie."
"No matter how nice you say on a normal day, you are totally unreliable when we need you." Willy clenched his fists and said to Nellie angrily.
"What do you mean?"
Nellie was a little confused.
"Do you know why people here don't welcome you?" Willy shouted angrily, "It's all your fault! How many people here have lost their fathers and mothers!"
Perhaps she heard Willy's voice, because Dolu ran out from the room behind him, followed by the big black dog named Coal Ball.
"Where were you when the Black Death Cult came here?" Willy asked loudly.
"It's because of you that they can do whatever they want!" As he spoke so loudly, people in the surrounding houses opened their doors one after another, but no one came out. They just peeked in from there with half an eye, as if exerting invisible pressure.
"Isn't it your duty to eradicate the Black Death Cult?" he asked. Nellie was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
It was clearly not her problem, but she couldn't think of how to refute it for a moment. She was not the type of person who could speak sharply, so she had no way of answering.
"My father and mother, Duolu's father and mother, all died in the previous attack."
Duolu pulled his hand, signaling him to stop talking. The little girl grabbed the hair on the neck of Meigu next to her with one hand. The small, dirty face was full of nervous expression. She must be very scared, with so many strangers surrounding her.
"Look at our houses, our homes, our roads," he said. "They are all rotten. You are the one who left them like this."
"If you are really good people, why don't you drive them away! Why don't you fix our house! Why don't you heal my grandma!"
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he even started to cry a little.
There were quiet discussions around, rustling like the sounds of mice, very quiet, but the people here were all professionals and could easily hear these noises.
"Yes."
"Whatever you call the Holy See is a lie."
"My house was also damaged. I saved so much money to build this house, and in an instant, it was all gone."
"My wife also died at that time..."
"In my opinion, the Church and the Empire should take responsibility and pay us compensation."
"Shh, you're trying to kill yourself. What does this have to do with the empire?" someone quickly spoke up to stop him.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes! It was the Holy See that failed to eradicate those cultists. It is the Holy See that should compensate us or at least rebuild my house." The man realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly changed his words.
The Holy See will not do anything to them, but if they speak ill of the Empire, they will really be taken away by the Knights Templar.
The voices around him continued to ring out, and the words uttered were annoying. Caesar watched coldly, without saying a word, but just listened from the side.
Nelly stood up. She had encountered such a situation before, and she knew very well how to deal with it.
She is not the type of person who can be a villain. Generally speaking, when encountering such a situation, it is time to change people.
Fen looked indifferent, while Weiguang seemed to want to say something, but was stopped by Nellie quickly. The latter stretched out her hand and covered her mouth. The former seemed to be cast under some special spell by Nellie, and suddenly became motionless, with a faint pink color on her face, as if she had lost the ability to think.
Caesar glanced at her and the little girl seemed to be particularly excited.
By the way, is she worshipping Nellie a little too much?
Caesar thought so.
He did not speak immediately, but glanced at the people around him who were talking.
"Okay, that's enough, right?"
Caesar spoke softly. His voice seemed to carry a special magic and supreme majesty. When the residents around heard this voice, they lowered their voices.
Even the big black dog named Coal Ball squatted down, tucked its tail between its buttocks and stopped wagging it.
He took a few steps forward, came in front of Willy, and looked down at the child.
Willy then noticed the person who had been silent.
He had black hair and a half iron mask on his face, with an expressionless face.
Although he is very young, his eyes are dignified, like a big shot who has been in a high position for a long time.
He swallowed unconsciously and took a step back.
Only then did he notice that the man in front of him was not wearing the white clothing of the Vatican, which meant that he was not a member of the Vatican.
"It's sad, right? So many precious things were taken away by those damn cultists."
He said this.
