Following the girl not far away, Fang Zheng and his group also walked into the alley. The girl was obviously preoccupied with something, and she didn't even notice Fang Zheng and his group walking behind her. Then Fang Zheng and his group saw the girl walk into one of the houses and close the door.
"What now?"
Looking at the tightly closed door, Theo was somewhat dumbfounded. The reason why she cared so much about this woman was because she felt from her the same pain and despair as those children who had undergone experiments in the cult before their death, so she took the initiative to take action, contrary to her usual practice.
But now that she has gone home...I can't possibly follow her home, right?
"Anyway, let's get some information first."
Fang Zheng seemed very calm. He walked directly to an old man who was resting on a chair not far away and started asking questions.
"Old man, do you know the young lady who just came into the room?"
"Torisha? Of course I know her."
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the old man who was sitting on the chair with his eyes half closed suddenly perked up - it seems that no matter how old they are, beautiful women are a common topic among men.
"She is a famous beauty here. She is smart, kind, and very capable. Many young men like her... Hehe, you are not attracted to her too, are you? What a pity! This little girl is going to get married soon. Hey, I heard that the other party is a noble. Now this little girl is going to fly up to the tree and become a phoenix."
"Hey, what's so good about being a noble?"
At this moment, an auntie who was selling souvenirs nearby also interrupted.
"Those nobles are always looking down on others. Tolisha is an ordinary person. She will definitely suffer if she marries him. In my opinion, it would be better for her to find a young man of the same social status and marry him."
"What are you talking about? What do you mean by a good match? This is the modern age. And Tolisha's uncle is a high-ranking government official with a promising future. He might even become the mayor in the future."
"Even if you become the prime minister, aren't you still a commoner? Those nobles don't care about you."
"Hey, you are such a short-sighted woman..."
“Bang.”
Suddenly, at this moment, Fang Zheng's ears caught a faint sound coming from the house, which made him look moved and turned his head to stare at the house in front of him. Then Fang Zheng walked directly to the closed door and knocked on it.
"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom."
“…”
No response.
"Big brother? What's wrong?"
Noticing the change in Fang Zheng's expression, Ling asked curiously, while Tio now looked pale and clenched her hands.
"I, I felt... Brother Fang Zheng, that kind of pain... despair..."
"I know."
Fang Zheng nodded, then he reached out, clenched his fist, and punched the door again.
"boom!!!"
The tightly closed door was slammed open in an instant, which frightened the two old men who were arguing. They hurried over and tried to stop it.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing, young man? Are you trying to rob? This is someone else's girl's home, are you just going to break in like this?"
"Something's wrong. Come in with me."
Fang Zheng did not explain anything to the two of them, but just said one sentence and then strode into the room. Although the two old people were a little confused, they also entered the house with the children.
"Brother Fang Zheng, over there!!"
After entering the house, Theo immediately pointed at a room and shouted, while Fang Zheng and others also hurried to the door. After seeing the scene inside, everyone was shocked.
I saw the pretty girl with golden curly hair hanging on a beam, motionless.
“Wow! This, this is…!!”
Seeing this, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows, then he suddenly stretched out his right hand, and soon, a flying knife flashed across like lightning, cutting the rope hanging on the beam, and then the girl fell to the ground.
"Torisha, what's going on? What happened?"
At this moment, the two old men were also terrified. Oster District was a slum area and everyone had a good relationship with each other. To them, Tolisha was like their own daughter, but she actually hanged herself?
"The heart has stopped beating. Emergency treatment is needed. Leave it to me."
Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, put it around the girl's neck, and immediately made a decision.
"Leave this to me. Please go find her relatives or friends."
"Oh, oh, I'll go now!!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the aunt nodded hurriedly, then turned around and ran out of the room as if her butt was on fire. At the same time, Fang Zheng also activated the personal terminal on his arm and gave the girl in front of him a shot of medical glue. Then he stretched out his hand and placed it on the girl's heart, and then a dazzling light burst out instantly.
“——!!”
The girl's slender body trembled suddenly, and then she instinctively opened her mouth and coughed. Her originally pale face gradually began to turn red.
"Sister!! Sister!!!"
At this moment, the voice of a boy with a crying voice was heard, and then a boy wearing glasses and a middle-aged man in a suit rushed in.
"How is Torisha? Is she okay?!"
"So far, he's alive."
Fang Zheng confirmed the girl's vital signs again, then stood up, clapped his hands, and looked at the middle-aged man.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
"Sorry, my name is Carl Regnitz, and I currently work for the government. This is my son Machias, and she is my niece Tolixia..."
Although his expression was extremely anxious, the man named Carl still expressed his gratitude to Fang Zheng. Not long after, medical staff immediately arrived at the scene and took the unconscious Tolisha to the hospital. The boy with glasses also left with them. Only Carl sat on the chair, grabbing his hair and muttering to himself.
"Why, Tolisha...why did you do such a stupid thing..."
"I thought maybe that would answer your question."
Fang Zheng pointed to a letter placed on a table not far away. According to common sense, anyone who commits suicide will write a suicide note. Apparently, this law is still valid now.
After hearing Fang Zheng's reminder, Karl discovered the letter. He hurriedly picked up the envelope, opened it, and quickly read it. The more he looked at the letter, the uglier his expression became.
"How could... such a thing happen! Damn it! That bastard!!"
Then Karl grabbed the piece of letter paper and rushed out, leaving Fang Zheng and others standing there, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Big brother, what should we do now?"
Ling looked around and then asked.
"Go home and sleep. We have already done what we need to do."
Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and then looked at the old man next to him.
"Well, old man, I'm sorry to bother you, but the repair fee for this door..."
"No, no, no, young man."
Seeing Fang Zheng taking out the money, the old man hurriedly declined.
"You saved Torisha, how can we ask you for money? Don't worry, I will fix this door."
"Then I'll trouble you."
Fang Zheng didn't say much. He just took the three girls out of the Oster District and returned to the hotel.
"I never thought... that things would turn out like this..."
Even after returning to the room, Tida still looked full of emotion. She could never have imagined that the girl, whom she and others had only met once at noon, would choose to commit suicide in the afternoon... This made Tida sigh that fate was really wonderful.
"So after all, that older sister is trying to commit suicide because of a breakup. That's right, isn't it?"
Compared to Tida, who lamented the impermanence of life, Ling, as a spectator, is obviously more gossipy.
"Young people, that's what happens sometimes."
Fang Zheng calmly picked up the Empire Daily and replied.
"That's still considered good. There are people who are so desperate that they chop off their lovers' heads and then take a boat out to sea to commit suicide while holding their heads."
“Wow… This is too scary…”
Hearing this, Ling couldn't help but gasp.
"But it seems quite romantic."
"……Um?"
Fang Zheng glanced at the little girl silently.
Could it be that the little guy needs education?
Only Theo was still worried about the girl.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, is that sister okay?"
"If you're worried, we can go check on her tomorrow morning."
"Really?"
"certainly."
Hearing Theo's question, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.
"I'm free anyway."
The next day, after a night, Fang Zheng brought the three girls to the Imperial Capital Hospital. However, just as they were about to go to the service desk to inquire, suddenly, a man's voice rang out.
"Ah, it's you! It's you, that young man, wait a minute!!"
Hearing this voice, Fang Zheng turned around and saw the middle-aged man who had met him yesterday running towards him panting.
"Hello...um..."
"My name is Fang Zheng."
"Mr. Fang Zheng."
Karl took a breath, stood up and looked at Fang Zheng.
"I'm so sorry. I didn't have time to thank you yesterday. May I ask why you came to the hospital today..."
"Oh, my little girl is very worried about the young lady's condition, so I brought them to see her."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng patted Theo's little head, while Karl looked at Fang Zheng and then at the three girls with some confusion.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what is your relationship with Tolisha?"
"It doesn't matter."
"……Why?"
"We are just tourists who came to the imperial capital for sightseeing. Yesterday at noon, we went to visit the Notre Dame Park in the imperial capital and happened to run into that lady. She seemed to be arguing with someone at the time, and then she ran away crying sadly. Then in the afternoon when we went to the Oster District, we happened to run into that lady again. She looked distraught at the time, and my little girl was a little worried, so we followed her to see, and then... that's it."
"I see."
After listening to Fang Zheng's explanation, Karl finally understood the situation and hurriedly saluted everyone.
"Thank you. If you weren't here, I'm afraid Tolisha...ah..."
"It's nothing, it's just a small favor for us."
Having said this, Fang Zheng paused.
"If you don't mind, why don't you tell me what's going on?"
“…”
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Karl hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.
"All right."
