It All Starts with the Wizard

Lean is in a very good mood today. The slightly simple round face is full of joy and excitement at this time. He walks briskly through the streets, humming an unknown tune in his mouth happily.

Lean held the canvas pocket slanting on his shoulder with one hand. The newspapers that were originally contained in it had already been sold out. Instead, he had just bought some soft white bread, slices of cheese and a small piece of paper. Minced minced meat can be made into two simple hamburgers as long as you go back and process it a bit.

And his other hand reached into his trouser pocket, tightly holding the shiny silver coin, which was given to him by a kind gentleman he met when he was selling newspapers in the morning, although it was only a A silver pound, but for him, it is equivalent to a week's salary.

"With this silver pound, I don't need to pick up leftovers anymore today. I can let my sister eat something good."

Lean suddenly felt excited when thinking of the sister who was lying in bed at home, and his footsteps became more brisk. He could not wait to return home and cook a fragrant lunch for his sister.

But when he came to the periphery of the slum, he was surprised to find that the street leading to the slum was actually cordoned off, and there were two or three policemen guarding the intersection. Some people around who wanted to go in were all being cordoned off. Driven away mercilessly, even the people who come up in it are not allowed.

Seeing this scene, Laian didn't know why, and a strong uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart. He didn't know why this feeling came from, but he felt flustered in his heart, and sweat kept oozing from his palm.

Lean did not try to cross the cordon. He who has been in the slums all the year round knew clearly that the policemen in uniforms would not reason with such lowly untouchables.

So Lean immediately changed directions and walked to the other side of the street. He wanted to see if other streets were blocked, but after changing several intersections, he finally found helplessly that the area he lived in, It has been completely blocked by the police.

However, Laian still did not give up. Although the roads on the surface were blocked, he still had other ways to sneak in. Laian went to the root of a somewhat dilapidated wall, and then squatted down. It was planed vigorously at the foot of a wall.

Soon, the soil on the surface of the ground was peeled away, revealing a hole filled with dry branches below. This hole is not big and it is difficult for an adult to get through, but for the thin Lean, it is not a big deal. Difficult.

After he drilled through the hole, he appeared in a courtyard that seemed to be abandoned. Lean did not stop, walked to the other side of the courtyard lightly, and then stepped on a few well-built bricks and turned over.

When he got off the wall, Lean was already standing within the cordon. He didn't hesitate to look for a direction, and immediately ran towards home.

After a while, Laian rushed back home. He finally felt relieved when he saw that his sister was still leaning on the bed as usual, knitting the clothes.

"Lean, what's the matter? See you running profusely."

Seeing her younger brother rushing back home in a hurry, Lena couldn't help but asked with some worry.

Lena has long chestnut hair, but she looks a little dry due to chronic malnutrition, and her face is very thin, but only those eyes are very bright, always showing a gentle look.

Lena’s legs were broken by a car a few years ago. As a poor, she naturally has no reason to say. From then on, she can only lie on the bed and make some household clothes by weaving some clothes for others, plus her younger brother. Ryan went out to sell newspapers every day, and finally managed to survive.

"It's okay, sister, today I met a kind noble grandfather who rewarded me with a silver pound. Look, what did I buy back today?"

Ryan didn't talk about the blockade, but raised the canvas pocket in his hand, took out the food one by one, and put it on the table.

A touch of emotion flashed in Lena's eyes, mixed with a touch of sadness. How she hoped that Lean was not born in a slum, but in a normal family, so his life wouldn't have to be so hard.

"Sister, wait a minute, I'm going to cook now, and I will definitely make up for you today."

The excited Lean didn't pay attention to the complicated look in Lena's eyes, but happily took the ingredients and walked into the kitchen to get busy.

It's a kitchen, but it's actually a small space separated by wooden boards. Inside, a simple stove is built with bricks. Laian has no other seasonings, so he can simply press the minced meat into steaks and put it in the pot Fry it, and finally put a piece of cheese and the leftover leaves from last night, sandwich it with two pieces of bread, and you're done.

Lean looked at the burger in front of him and swallowed unconsciously. He could not remember when the last time he ate meat, but then he shook his head vigorously, then brought the burger to Lena and said:

"Sister, it's done, you can eat it quickly."

Lena shook her head with a smile and said:

"Lean, sister is not hungry, you are still growing, you can eat first."

"No, there are leftover ingredients. I will make another one later. You can eat it first."

Lean shook her head and put the hamburger in Lena's hand without any explanation, then turned and ran back to the kitchen. Lena looked at her younger brother's back, sighed slightly, and then took a small bite on the hamburger.

In the kitchen, Laian was scraping off the only thin layer of minced meat with bread, and then fried it in the pan with the bread, his eyes filled with happiness.

On the other hand, Roman sat in the cafe until the evening. Although the shop owner closed the door intentionally, he couldn't muster the courage to drive away the distinguished guest, so he could only wait carefully.

It was near midnight, and the streets were empty. Only the police who imposed the blockade continued to hold their posts under Wilbur's strict orders.

At this time, Roman's brows suddenly moved slightly, and his mental power sensed a very weak soul fluctuation from somewhere in the slum.

"Has it appeared?"

The owner of the coffee shop reluctantly wiped the shiny table behind the bar, and after a big yawn, he glanced at the location of Roman.

But when he glanced over, he was stunned. He saw the guest who was sitting there just now. At this moment, he did not know when he had disappeared from the seat, and on the table, a few shiny silver coins were beating. After two strokes, he lay down quietly.

In the slum ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Lean and Lena are squeezed on a bed, behind them are covered with a patched quilt, even so, the cold wind blowing in from the gap in the wall still made him unconscious Tuaned up.

Suddenly, Lai An, who was sleeping, slammed into a clever, a violent heart palpitations made his heart seem to be held by someone, and his blood coagulated together.

"what!"

Lian shuddered all over, and suddenly sat up from the bed, the big sweat rolled off his forehead, and quickly dried in the cold wind.

"Just... what happened just now?"

Lean’s heart was still beating wildly. The terrible heart palpitations just now made him still terrified. Suddenly, his body stiffened. He felt something was wrong. My sister has always slept very shallowly, and a little movement will make her Woke up, just now I suddenly sat up from the bed and yelled, why is my sister not responding at all now?

Thinking of this, the uneasy feeling immediately hit Lean’s heart like a tide, and he immediately looked back at Lena. At this moment, the cold moonlight penetrated through the gap in the window, just illuminating Lena’s white eyes. Faces twisted together because of fear.
