The darkness and distortion hidden beneath the surface of civilized society, the eerie whispers that only rise in the dead of night!
The day the sea fog rolled in, the world turned into a lon...
It was one of the two ladies who had led him that afternoon when he went to scout out Burning Night.
The delicate and soft touch at that time seems to still linger between my fingers, but now we are separated by life and death.
Name: Liya
Age: 21
Home address: Moore Orphanage, Moore Street, East End, Highland.
Personal profile: "Liya was taken in by Mrs. Marian in the Moore Orphanage since she was a child."
"When she was 16, Mrs. Marian passed away and the orphanage had limited relief funds."
“To ensure the basic living conditions of other children in the orphanage and prevent them from starving and freezing.”
"16-year-old Liya went to the Burning Night Theater after being introduced by someone...
"In the end, he unfortunately passed away due to being affected by the extraordinary pollution."
Eros finished reading the information in silence and turned to the next page.
However, he had seen the person who appeared on the next page before, and it was the other of the two ladies.
Name: Tina
Age: 19
Home address: 1045, Stinky Ditch Street, East Haidaram.
Personal profile: "She originally came from a well-off family. Both her parents were employees of Sino-Ocean Group. She has a younger brother who is ten years younger than her."
"But in January of the previous year, both my parents suddenly became seriously ill and were hospitalized in a coma."
"After months of hospitalization and facing increasingly high medical bills, the family's savings were exhausted."
"In order to support her parents and take on the responsibility of raising her younger brother, the 17-year-old girl was in urgent need of money."
"After being introduced by someone, I came to the Burning Night Theater..."
"In the end, he unfortunately passed away due to being affected by the extraordinary pollution."
Eros narrowed his eyes and scrolled down silently.
After flipping through the first few chapters and discovering that the people who appeared later were all clients of prostitutes, Eros threw the list of dead in his hand onto the table.
He leaned back and rested his entire body on the back of the chair.
After a while, Daisy came back. Seeing this, Eros said in a gentle tone:
"Ms. Daisy, the families of these deceased have not been informed of their deaths yet, right?"
Daisy shook her head: "It's just like what I said before, because we can't give out the ashes of the deceased."
"But I just asked the captain, and he said that David's idea is feasible, so the family of the deceased will probably be notified of the victim's death this afternoon."
Hearing this, Eros smiled:
"Can I take care of the families of the two deceased people, Liya and Tina, on the list?"
Daisy had obviously seen the list. She was stunned for a moment before exclaiming:
"Mr. Kernan is such a kind gentleman."
This seems to be the third Nice Guy card today? Eros didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
…
In the afternoon, inside the Moore Orphanage, a boy about twelve or thirteen years old sat at the gate and kept looking at the street outside.
His name is Allen, and he is the oldest child in the Moore Orphanage except for his sister Liya.
Usually when sister Liya is not around, he is the one who takes care of her younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage.
He also thought about finding a job outside to relieve the pressure on Sister Liya.
But if he goes to work, there will be no one to take care of his younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage.
So he had to stay in the yard and watch Sister Liya raise more than twenty children by herself.
"Brother Allen! Brother Allen! Is Sister Liya back?" Suddenly, a childish voice sounded in Allen's ears.
Allen forced a smile on his face, rubbed the child's head in front of him, and said firmly and forcefully:
"Sister Liya will be back soon! Please wait a little longer..."
After comforting the little guy, Allen looked towards the street outside the courtyard gate again, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
Sister Liya hasn't been back for almost two days. He has said the same comforting words to her countless times in the past two days.
Although there was enough food in the hospital for the time being, he always felt uneasy when he didn't see anyone coming back.
Just at this moment, as he watched, a middle-aged butler in butler's clothes was walking towards the gate of Moore Orphanage.
Allen looked at the newcomer with a vigilant look. The middle-aged housekeeper didn't care and walked straight to the door of the orphanage. He smiled at Allen who was sitting by the door and said:
"Hello! Young sir, is this Ms. Liya's home?"
When the middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper mentioned Sister Liya, Allen's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked quickly:
"Do you know where Sister Liya is?"
The butler smiled and said, "Of course I know!"
"Where is Sister Liya?" Allen grabbed the sleeve of the housekeeper in front of him with some excitement.
The butler didn't care about the rude behavior of the child in front of him, and still smiled and said:
"Ms. Liya is now preparing to follow a distinguished viscount to the capital of the empire, Intiles."
"It was she who entrusted me to deliver this news to you."
Upon hearing this, Allen's pupils shrank sharply, and he shouted in disbelief:
"Impossible, Sister Liya, impossible..."
At this point, he seemed to remember that there were many children in the yard behind him who were paying attention to what was happening here, so he held back the words that were on the tip of his tongue, lowered his voice and said angrily:
"Sister Liya will never abandon us, you are slandering her!"
