Chapter 63

When Barton was a poor boy who just came to London from the countryside, all he had to do every day was to find a way to earn lunch money, even a sandwich was a luxury meal for him at that time.It wasn't until I met Moffat later that this situation changed, but even so, he was still a poor boy from the country.

Moffat often had some jobs in his hands, and Barton used him to get jobs as banquet security guards, parking boys, and even bar janitors. Those rich people came and went in bright clothes every day, Although Barton is envious, the current situation is much better than when he first arrived in London, so he is envious, but he is very satisfied with his current situation.

Until he met Jennifer, Jennifer Bellamy, a pampered, socialite.

Because he often does security work for various banquets, Barton is quite familiar with this social jewel, of course, it is a one-sided understanding. No man will be indifferent to Bellamy's charm, and some of the same security guards often face it in private. Bellamy talked a lot. I heard that she was born in a noble family, and her grandfather was once knighted by the royal family; some people said that she was the only daughter of a rich man from country M; Rami is a royal princess of a small country.Her world looked very different from his, and Barton never thought that he would know her one day.And the true identity of this "famous lady" also surprised him.

Jennifer Bellamy is not a rich person, and of course she does not have any prominent background. Just like Button, she is a "bump" from the countryside.Behind her, there was an organization that single-handedly turned her into a socialite, just to defraud an old nobleman of his property.But I don't know what went wrong, Jennifer's identity was exposed, the social darling suddenly became a joke, and Jennifer was kicked out of the social circle of the upper class because of this.

Barton saw Jennifer again near the small apartment where he lived. He almost didn't recognize that she was the great beauty. The Jennifer in front of him was poorly dressed, her makeup was haggard, and she didn't have those dazzling beauty. The diamond decoration looks like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world, and Button felt his heart was hit at once.

It didn't take long for them to be together.

Moffat's invitation also came at this time.In fact, until now, Barton didn't know what he would choose if he did it all over again.Are you still following Moffat with the idea of ​​getting rich overnight?Or choose to live an ordinary life with Jennifer, who was already pregnant with his child?

He is just not reconciled, so many people are so rich, but he and his Jennifer have to endure poverty, not to mention they are about to have a child, he does not want his child to repeat his fate, being a bar watchman The doorman was ridiculed.

But Jennifer disagreed. She seemed to hate Moffat very much. She said that she didn't trust this person. If she insisted on following this person, then they would break up.

Of course Barton refused, but the time was imminent, he had to put down Jennifer's affairs first, and turn to the bank affairs, what did he think at that time, by the way, Hayward said at the time that women are like this, and families are a burden , advised him not to listen to Jennifer everything.He didn't take it seriously, and felt that it was quite right in his heart.

The day before the robbery, when they were all staying at Moffat's house, he wandered around Moffat's house to keep himself from getting too nervous, thinking that he would be able to take the money after this one was done. With the money he got, he bought the same house for his favorite Jennifer, and Jennifer would like it too.He didn't expect that it turned out to be like that. In the study room, there were some documents containing the information of some girls.Among them was Jennifer.Her real name is Jenny Carter.Moffat and the others were the organization that trained Jennifer to be a "socialite" and then abandoned her after her identity was leaked.Barton made a decision. After he successfully robbed the bank, he did not abide by the agreement and wait for other people, but abandoned them and called the police to inform them.

Barton went back to Jennifer with the money. He wanted to tell her that she no longer had to worry about money. He brought enough money for their lives, and she avenged her. They could live a normal life from now on.But he didn't find Jennifer. The landlady said that Jennifer left two days ago, and she said that Jennifer had a miscarriage before leaving, and asked him where he had been these two days?Why are you so irresponsible to throw this kind of thing to a girl?Patton was devastated. He missed a home that he might never have again.

He spent the rest of his life blaming and regretting this incident.

While Circe was listening to Barton's love story, on the other side, somewhere she didn't know, her little wand was trying to reach her.

Birke finally waited for this day. She completely controlled the situation underground in the factory, and soon she could get rid of Adam who somehow insisted on kidnapping her, and Adam's follower, Samuel, who looked like a playboy.

I don't know what Adam used to lock her up. Birke has been working hard to absorb nutrients from the ground these days, trying to use his accumulated strength to break through Adam's shackles. On the other hand, the roots of underground plants can also monitor Adam and Sarah for her. Maier.Today finally came a situation where there was enough strength and no one was watching, and Birke would not let it go easily.

The power kept coming up, Bilke's eyes turned green, not only the eyes, if anyone was here, she would be shocked, because Bilke, who was originally like a five or six-year-old child, was constantly Shrunk down, got smaller.That's how she broke free.

Birk smiled slightly and silently recited the spell, "Disapparation", but as a result, nothing happened.

Thinking that she was not strong enough to use silent magic now, Bilke rearranged her thoughts, and this time she yelled: "Apparition." Still nothing happened.Things got out of hand.

"Sometimes, you are really naive!" A voice came from the door, not Samuel, but the culprit of all this, Adam, or you can say "Lucifer."

The sun shone in from outside the door, and the figure of the visitor was coated with a layer of golden light, just like the situation at that time.By the way, this person, could it be that time...

In 599 AD, "witch hunts" occurred frequently, and the Pope issued a decree: "(Witches) must not be forgiven, they are heinous and licentious." The church believes that witches always give their souls to the devil Satan, so witches The weight must be lighter than ordinary people.So people tied the defendant's hands and feet and put him in the water.Those who float up are witches, those who sink are innocent.The huge scale was also one of the tools used by people to identify witches at that time. If the accused woman exceeded the weight standard set by the judge, then the person was a witch.But the interrogator's standard is sometimes only the weight of a Bible.Thousands of women were innocently burned at the stake, burning themselves in flames and dying in agony.

That's when the Witch Rescuer appeared.Legend has it that the Witch Rescuer was a man whose lover was burned as a witch, so he swore to save all the tortured women.Some people also said that he himself was a witch, and that the identity of a man was just to deceive others. She pitied those who died innocently, and would often appear at the execution scene, singing dirges for the innocent women who died.If anyone wants to find this person, it must be right to go to the scene of the burning.

In the night of Freiburg City, the originally calm night became tense because of the confrontation between the two.

The author has something to say:

There is indeed something about the "witch hunt", but the time has been adjusted stupidly, mainly to match the era in which Circe lived, and the Pope's decree also really exists.Those who are interested can check it out by themselves. . .
