Regarding what the woman said, it is actually very easy to collect information, because this story is a relatively famous story in Flint Town, and it is only because the town is too far away and far away that it has only been reported.

  Charlotte lightly opened the paper that recorded the incident, and read each line of text on it word by word.

  This story is not so bizarre. With the intention of the investigators, they tried their best to eliminate a large number of errors caused by artistic processing and word of mouth, and recorded it as an emotionless bystander.

  The protagonist of the story is a young girl.

  She has an ordinary appearance and a common personality. The only difference from most people may be that her parents have both died, and she has relied on helping others for a living since she was a child.

  If things develop according to the normal situation, she should marry an ordinary person in the same town in the future, and then drag each other to continue living.

  In fact, she did abide by this law in the first half, until she met a man during the part-time job.

  According to the man himself, he came to this town because of some unknown difficulties, and wanted to seek some help, such as raising some travel expenses to help him go home.

   No one would believe a stranger's words, so the man hit a wall without any surprise. When he was very hungry and came to the shop where the girl worked, the girl saw him as pitiful, so she gave him a piece of bread.

After receiving the bread, the man promised her that he would give her something in return, such as sending her to a more prosperous town to study or finding a place where it was easier but with higher wages to work, of course the girl just smiled at this, Simply think that this is an "exaggeration" made by people out of gratitude, because he added a sentence "if I can go back alive".

  For a girl who has already seen the warmth and coldness of the world, such a promise with the suffix is ​​tantamount to a lie. As long as he can successfully leave this town, who knows whether he will live or die.

  However, when night fell, she realized why the man said that.

  Actually, the man is a nobleman, but he was framed during the family struggle and is now being hunted down.

   And now, the person who chased him has come to the town.

  The man didn't let the girl be implicated by him, and hid her well, but he couldn't escape because he hid for too long.

So far, if it is a romance novel on the market, then it will probably write about a man who is seriously injured and then rescued by a girl and then falls in love for a long time; if it is a novel with a more exaggerated heroine, then tonight is the night of the girl’s awakening , Use your own ability to kill all the pursuers and save the man to the pinnacle of life.

   Unfortunately, none of this happened.

  The man defeated his pursuers very easily, because he used the surrounding residents as bait and barriers to force the opponents not to dare to do anything, and then relied on his stronger strength to crush these restrained pursuers.

  The whole process was almost smooth and smooth, without any procrastination, the man did not show any scars, and the only casualties were the pursuers and a few innocent civilians.

   Up to here, it is still the same rhetoric. If it is a normal person, it will probably be resentful and angry that the man threatened his enemy with the entire town's residents, and he will come up with some compensation in return.

   But the girl doesn't because she's still a girl.

Although she already has a little understanding of society, she is too young, her world outlook is not fully developed, and her self-judgment ability has not yet fully developed. In addition, the first person she met was a man, not these "Justice" pursuers.

  According to gossip, men are good-looking and handsome, the appearance that all girls will like, and they are naturally good-looking.

Under the conditions of such a first image and protecting her from being affected, the girl did not regard what he did as a "bad thing", at least she did not feel that this was a heinous person, and even tried to refute those who did it after the incident spread. People who insult men.

   During the process of refuting, she gradually felt that the other party had done nothing wrong.

   Because of threatening people in the town? However, the town was no different after he left.

   For hurting innocent people? But they didn't die, and they even left some compensation.

   Because of cruelty? But if you don't kill them, you will be the one who dies, whoever you are will make the same choice, right?

After a period of debate, people gradually found that they really didn't seem to be able to say no to the girl, because she could give all the answers, but their reasons gradually became far-fetched because of this refutation-another if, if For normal people, they will definitely not admit their mistakes, because people have a herd mentality, and their own side is the majority. They will definitely use more mouths to force the only mouth that holds opposing opinions to close.

  Unfortunately, this time, there was no accident like before.

Because the law hangs over their heads, people will not directly insult girls, but this is a small town, everyone meets their acquaintances when they go out for ten years, and it is too convenient for acquaintances to unite. It is also very simple for a person, or a child.

  Since then, the girl no longer has a shop that allows her to work, no longer has a kind boss who can provide her with bread, and even lost her own small thatched cottage.

  On the day when the thatched cottage was destroyed by the brats pushed by the adults, she was homeless and could only wander aimlessly in this familiar yet unfamiliar town.

  Walking and walking, she came to the edge of a pool.

  She sat there, quietly thinking about whether she was wrong, and if she admitted that she was wrong, could they let her go?

  Just as she was thinking, the brats who secretly followed her behind to watch her jokes reappeared.

They were arguing and laughing, greeted the girl and her family with all kinds of unfriendly words, labeled her a "sin", and then "worked together" to push her into the pool, trying to use this way Wash away her "sin".

  Seeing this, Charlotte probably understood why the other party was afraid of the depths of the pool.

  A young girl who is homeless and has doubts about the world, is ridiculed by everyone in a helpless situation, and then pushes into a dark and cold pool like an abyss.

  Whoever changes, who will have a psychological shadow?

"poor child"

  Muttering a word, she looked down again, wanting to see what the ending was, and whether what the woman wanted her to judge was about this "man".

  However, what happened next was beyond her expectation.

   The bear children were afraid of killing people, so they threw the girl into the water and ran away. It happened that the girl could swim, so she didn't die here.

  After that, the man returned to the town with a decree issued by the king.

  He told everyone that from now on, this town will belong to his territory, but he will not be here permanently, so the agent will be a girl.

  What an absurd choice it is for an underage girl to be the manager of an entire town.

  But everyone has to admit that this girl who was bullied by them collectively is really about to become their boss.

   To be honored by this, the girl was surprised and delighted for a moment. She was delighted that she really didn’t have to bear the sufferings of the past and that the man would keep his promise. Surprised was that she could really do it?

  She wanted to ask the man, but unfortunately, the man left after making this decision, without leaving her any help, and everything needed to be explored by the girl herself.

At this time, she should need someone capable to help her, but unfortunately, after being bullied by everyone, she no longer trusts anyone in this town, she can only rely on her own ability Make choices for the future of this town.

  But what good choices can a child make?

The girl doesn't know, she only thinks that if she is good to a person, she should give others what she can give, or try to collect what he needs and give it to him. But when a man was short of money, then give him money. .

  So she decently increased the town's taxes, collecting them according to the proportion of the head, and even imitating history to pay a few consumption taxes.

  The disadvantage of doing this is that it almost burns down the future of the entire town, but the advantage is that it can plunder a lot of wealth in a short time.

  The girl handed over all the wealth to the man, but in return, she was beaten to death by the furious people.

   And men?

   Neither when she was beaten nor at the funeral, the man never appeared.

   "Hey, is it over?"

  Charlotte flipped back again, and found that there was indeed no text to continue the narration.

  At this moment her brain was in a state of confusion.

  Girl dead? So isn't that female assassin the protagonist of the story?

   Did you find the wrong story?

   Or is it that the girl escaped through some special method, did not die, and became an assassin incognito?

  Charlotte doesn't quite understand, and now even the judgments she had in her mind have been swept away.

  Because she couldn't confirm whether the woman's "right or wrong" was referring to the man who identified with the man before, or the so-called choice for the future of the town.

   Silence for a moment, Charlotte can only guess that the girl is not dead but ran out, as for the following.

   She raised her head and asked Lynn: "Do you think she is doing the right thing?"

  Lyn En was stunned: "Which one are you referring to? Her defense against other people? Or is it the death of a man who collected high taxes and handed them over to 'men'?"

   "Yes, both."

"I don't think I have any objection to the first one." Lynn said softly, "Many things in the world are difficult to have a complete definition that everyone agrees with. Even gold coins will be disliked by some people, so no one can Judging good or bad from other people's perspective, but if you are the protagonist and always insist that you are right, then."

  “No matter what others say, if she thinks she is right, then she is right.”

   This is a very Lynn-style speech. He always believes and firmly believes in what he believes.

  Charlotte nodded slightly, and asked again: "Then, what about the second one."

   "Second" Lynn thought for a while, then shook his head, "I don't know, but if it were me, I definitely wouldn't choose this way."

   "So you think this is the wrong way?"

   "Well, that's it."

  Charlotte blinked, curled up her knees, put her chin on it, and whispered, "I think she's right."

   "Huh? Why?" Lynn asked curiously.

   "Because... she probably fell in love with that man." Charlotte said softly, "She fell in love with that man, so she wanted to get close to him, but she is just an ordinary girl, not outstanding enough in any aspect."

  "The grass that grows on the ground, if you want to raise your head to touch the sun, you have to grow taller, grow taller desperately, hold your head up, and you can't shrink back even if you put it under the scythe of death."

   "Because she is a humble grass, if she wants to touch what she wants to touch, she has to pay ten times and a hundred times the price, even her life."

   "." Lynn was silent for a moment, and said, "From this point of view, no one can say she was wrong."

"right."

  Charlotte smiled and narrowed her eyes again: "By the way, you just said you wouldn't choose that way, then."

   "Do you want to ask why?"

   "No, I can definitely think of your reasons, but what I want to say is, what do you think I would choose."

  “.”

  Lin En opened and closed his mouth in a rare way, as if he didn't know whether to say it or not.

   "Say it, I want to hear it." Charlotte's voice was soft.

   "Well" Lynn looked at the ceiling and said, "I think you probably won't accept it even if you accept it, and even if you are forced to accept it, you will throw it to others like throwing garbage."

   "Huh?" The answer seemed to be beyond Charlotte's expectations, "Why do you think so?"

   "Because you are too timid to take responsibility."

  “.”

  Charlotte had to admit that this answer seemed to make sense.

   But what if it is changed to a precondition.

  For example, replace "man" with "Lynne".

   She thought, she would probably make the same choice.

  What about the ending? Will the ending be the same as hers, and people won't even come to see her after being beaten to death?

  According to Charlotte's understanding of Lynn, this probability may be a bit small, as small as 99.9%.

  He is cruel like this world, no matter what other people think, he will run silently, no matter what others think, only do what he should do.

   "It's so cold."

   "Huh? Who?"

   "Ah, it's all right."

  Charlotte waved her hands in a panic, and fell silent again.

  In other words, even if there is only a 0.1% probability, you should ask if you want it.

  Holding hope, Charlotte asked in a low voice: "I said, do you think, if that man were you, you would not even take a look at the girl when she died?"

  Lin En was taken aback, looking into the girl's eyes.

   "Just as you can guess what a girl is thinking, I can also guess what this 'man' is thinking."

"Girls like him, but men have never loved this girl. She is just a passer-by next to the other party. She is not as good as the celebrity who danced with her at the ball. Although the other party helped him when he was down, he also I paid back and settled with her."

   "So, if I were him, I wouldn't come either."

  Charlotte's barely maintained smile was a little stiff: "Is this so?"

   "But, I'm not him." Lin En stretched out his hand, helped the girl straighten the broken hair, and said with a smile, "You don't need to bring that girl in, because you are not her either."

   "You are a princess, with a unique appearance, and a girl favored by the gods. Everything you have is something that others can't imagine, so you don't have to be humble, and you don't have to hold your head high for anyone."

  “.”

  Charlotte is not a fool, she clearly understood the meaning of the other party's words.

  An inexplicable stubbornness welled up in her heart, she pulled away the other's hand and spoke forcefully.

   "I'm going to do this!"

  Her voice is actually not loud, but it's hard for anyone to imagine how much effort it took her to say such a sentence.

  She is so timid, so reserved, and so cowardly, only at such times will she be a little braver.

  Lin En was silent, and suddenly remembered all the tragic endings that the barrage had told him about her.

   Really, how can a person who keeps his eyes on others get a good ending?

   Sighed, Lynn patted her on the head, her voice subconsciously softer.

  "Before you regret it, do what you should do. In that way, it is the right choice."

  Charlotte raised her head and said aggrievedly: "Then others don't think it's right or don't want to accept it."

  Lynn said: "Can others control your own choice?"

  “.”

  Charlotte's lips trembled, she blinked again, and suddenly raised her head.

   "That's right, I don't care!"

  This time she has a loud voice, which is a rare domineering display.
