Back on the street, Martin stopped and looked back at Xiao Sheng who was behind.

Xiao Sheng lowered his head, didn't notice it, and bumped into it accidentally.

Martin put his hands on his forehead, and smiled angrily: "What are you thinking, so lost in thought?" Then he looked at his neckline, which was neatly tied up to the top layer, his eyes dimmed slightly, and he said softly: "Still Are you uncomfortable?"

Xiao Sheng shook his head, the feeling of indifference from the other party was much less.

He smiled, his cheeks flushed slightly.

Today's destination is a bookstore on Calabash Street, and there is no clue about what he wants to investigate, so today is naturally another day of leisurely strolling.

After walking this street and turning another corner, there is a book shop.

The streets of Dalapefu are all crossed, and there are often cross squares for people to inhabit at the intersections.

Crowds are bustling, coming and going at the intersection.

The small isolated island surrounded by hedges in the middle is undisturbed. There are old people sitting in it to enjoy the shade, and a few children are playing with the flower mud in the flower bed.

At the crossroads, you can see the sky divided by tall buildings with sharp edges and corners, which is blue and refreshing.

When Martin and the others walked over, a child playing in the flower bed just ran out. It was a little boy with blond hair. His hands were dirty from picking up mud, and a piece was rubbed on his white and tender cheeks, but the little boy There was still a smile on his face, obviously very happy.

Martin thought the child was pleasing to the eye, beautiful and cute, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Just at this moment, a carriage from the west was also on its way.

"ah--"

Seeing the tragedy that the two would meet in three seconds, the onlookers exclaimed.

The coachman obviously also noticed the little boy who ran out suddenly, pulled the reins of the horse, and braked urgently.

But it was obviously too late.

When the little boy heard the sound, the carriage was already close in front of him. He stayed where he was, subconsciously covering his eyes.

thump--

Smoke and dust rose.

Caesar felt himself fall to the ground, but was restrained by a warm embrace and a pair of hands, he raised his head cautiously, opened his eyes, and a blond-haired man with beautiful features broke into his blue eyes.

He suspected that he had dazzled his eyes, so he couldn't help but raised his little hand and rubbed it.

But it still hasn't changed, blond hair, gentle blue eyes, and white jade cheeks.

Regardless of being still on the ground at this time, he burst into tears with the emotions of grievance and longing:

"Mother--"

Martin stood up, and for the first time, the Earl, who was going well, felt a little speechless and at a loss.

The little boy didn't let go of the skirt of his shirt, but held it tightly. The force forced him to pick up the child and put it in his arms awkwardly.

The child is still very light, not very strenuous.

The carriage stopped at last, and the driver who was over half a year old scolded "you don't have long eyes", then raised his whip and continued to drive forward.

There are quite a lot of domineering aristocratic lackeys in small towns and small towns. Martin glanced at them coldly and ignored them.

"Sir, are you okay?!"

Xiao Sheng hurried over just now after a carriage. The anxiety on his face was undisguised.He also didn't expect that Martin would rush forward to save the little boy.

Martin shook his head slightly.

The five or six-year-old boy had already wrapped his arms around Martin's neck. He seemed a little tired from crying because of the fright, but he could still hear his soft voice calling "Mom".

The half-opened azure blue eyes were full of tears, and they were so pitiful that they were upside down.

Martin felt that the child had wiped his body with snot, tears and mud from his hands, and his face was a little dark, but he didn't let go.

However, the child held onto him tightly, refusing to move for a moment, and even greeted them in every possible way, without even responding.After a while, he fell asleep on Martin's shoulder with snot bubbles.

Martin: "..."

Seeing this, Xiao Sheng had no choice but to ask around for the boy's home address.

"Sir, why don't we take him home."

Martin didn't have such patience and kindness at first, but looking at the soft and fluffy blond hair of the little boy, somehow he was moved with compassion.

"Okay." He even rubbed the boy's little head involuntarily. This action didn't even notice him, but Xiao Sheng who was beside him paused in surprise.

The two asked questions along the road, and after walking for more than a quarter of an hour, they gradually came to a narrow alley in the street.

At the entrance of a house, a man was sitting on a stone pier at the entrance, smoking a cigarette.The smoke from cooking is wafting from the door, and it smells like roasted sweet potatoes.

The little boy lying on Martin's shoulder sniffled at this moment, woke up, opened his blue eyes, and saw the man at the door.

He climbed off Martin, ran up to the man, pointed at Martin anxiously and shouted: "...Mom...Mom."

The man looked over impatiently, and after a glance, he was stunned.

Martin and the others felt strange, but they didn't move either.The man walked over slowly with a cigarette in his mouth, and looked around Martin.

Martin and the others were stared at with horror, Xiao Sheng said: "Mr., you..."

"Are you from the Acropolis?" the man asked.

Now Martin was stunned, and he and Xiao Sheng looked at each other.

"you are?"

"You guys came to look for Ya Li," the man looked at Martin, You Qi stared at his face several times, "You are Ya Li's son in the Acropolis, right?"

? !!

These words were too informative, so Martin slowed down for a while before slowly nodding.

The man took a puff of cigarette and sighed: "Two visitors from afar, please come in first."

The man's house was empty and there was nothing there. A woman was cooking something in the east room. When she saw them coming in, she glanced at them.After looking away, Martin retracted his head.

The smoking man sat down by the stool in the house, the cigarette still burning in his mouth:

"...Yali is my sister-in-law. My brother married him ten years ago and left this little guy behind." The man pointed to the other little boy who was hiding behind the bed and kept looking at Martin, "How much is his father?" He failed in business a few years ago, and later became addicted to gambling." The man paused, exhaled, "I had no money to pay back, and was beaten to death, and thrown into a random grave..."

When he said this, the little boy slowly came over again, got a little closer, and squatted not far away to look at Martin.Small in stature, with blond curly hair, very cute, it is really [-]% similar to Martin when he was a child.

"Then, what about my mother?" Martin was confused and had no time to think about many things, so he asked the question he was most concerned about.

The man glanced at him, spit out a puff of cigarettes, and said, "I died of illness a year ago."

Martin's whole body froze, and he clenched his hands involuntarily, "...what...what's wrong?"

Xiao Sheng saw it carefully, and approached without any trace, and gently held that arm.

"Ordinary typhoid fever, she was not in good health, and after giving birth to Caesar, the root cause of the disease fell. Without a lot of trouble, a typhoid fever will die." The man said indifferently, "Do you want to go and see it? It's just outside the city on the hill side."

Martin stood up and wanted to say yes, but found that he couldn't say anything. His eyes went dark, and he rushed forward in a dizzy state, and fell into someone's arms.

"gentlemen?!!"
