The two of them were standing in front of the orphanage.
…
In front of the orphanage.
Shentong looked at Nina with surprise and kept looking at her.
After not seeing each other for half a month, the girl has changed a lot.
She was wearing a bright red coat, a black skirt that went below the knees, and the pair of leather shoes that had been worn to holes were also replaced with a brand new style.
The only thing that has not changed is the octagonal hat on her head.
Looking at the tomboy with a sloppy image in the past, now showing the gentle beauty of a girl, Shentong's eyes can't help but light up.
It is said that girls need to dress up, and Nina, who is now wearing new clothes, is indeed much more pleasing to the eye than before.
"You look good, wearing new clothes."
After taking a look, Shen Tong smiled at the other party.
Nina pouted in dissatisfaction, "Why, don't you like it?"
"I like it, it's much cuter than before."
When the word cute came out, Nina's white face instantly showed shyness, as if two red clouds like apples climbed up her cheeks.
As an orphan, Nina had never been praised for being cute by any boy. This sudden praise made her heart beat wildly, her mind went blank, and she stood there at a loss.
"Hey... why don't you talk?"
"Your face... is so red, are you sick?"
Shen Tong noticed the strangeness on the other party's face and thought he was sick, so he quickly expressed his concern.
Nina coughed twice, covering up the embarrassment just now and replied: "It's okay, I'm fine."
"By the way... why did you come so long? I thought you abandoned me and didn't care."
Nina brought the topic to the right track and asked Shen Tong with a scrutinizing look.
Shen Tong smiled embarrassedly. He did stay home for a long time this time, which made Nina think that he had left.
"Sorry, I finally came home, but I stayed a few more days." Shen Tong explained with a smile.
Nina pouted her cherry lips again after hearing this, showing a complaining expression, "You call it staying a few more days? It's been almost half a month..."
"You know, someone is still locked up in the police station for you."
At this point, Nina turned her head away angrily.
Shen Tong was also stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly asked what was going on.
Seeing this, Nina also told him the reason in detail.
It turned out that during his absence, Karen was still locked up in the police station.
In order to solve Bartybyn, Shen Tong specially asked the two women to steal the ticket at the train station, but Karen was unfortunately caught by the police.
Unexpectedly, half a month has passed, and Karen has not been released yet.
After Shen Tong learned about the situation, he said with guilt: "Hey, it's me who harmed her. I shouldn't have asked you guys."
"If I had gone by myself at that time, Karen wouldn't have suffered."
Nina looked at Shen Tong's guilty expression and walked up to comfort him: "Don't say that. Karen and I both volunteered to help."
"Besides... it's our bad luck that we stole the hard stuff."
"Oh?" Shen Tong looked at her in surprise.
Nina continued: "Do you know that the train ticket we helped you steal at that time is said to be worth more than a thousand yuan."
Shen Tong was stunned when he heard this, and thought of the sky-high ticket in his head.
A train ticket worth a thousand yuan is enough for ordinary people to live for half a year. Such a theft case is definitely enough to convict Karen.
"Hey, it's really unlucky."
"What happened after that? Didn't you think of a way?" Shen Tong asked.
Nina sighed softly: "Of course, I told the dean about it and asked her to help, hoping to get Karen out of there."
"But... the identity of the ticket owner is very unusual. He is a reporter. He was supposed to go to the royal city to report on his work, but the ticket was lost and delayed his time."
"He was very angry about this matter and specifically asked for severe punishment of the criminal."
"The dean also begged him several times, but the other party was tough and asked him to either compensate for the loss or reveal his partner."
"In order not to betray the two of us, Karen took all the blame herself, so she is still locked up."
"Ah..."
After listening to the whole story, Shentong felt even more guilty.
I thought stealing was not a serious crime. Even if I was caught, I would at most be taught a lesson, locked up for a few days, starved, and finally released.
After all, there are so many thieves in the city that the police can't catch them all.
It's just that Nina and the others were so unlucky that they happened to steal valuables, so they were treated especially badly.
Take care of her.
"As for Karen, I will find a way to rescue her later."
Shen Tong was silent for a while, and then made a solemn promise to Nina.
Then, the two of them entered the orphanage together.
As it was lunch time, when they came to the hall, they happened to meet Soma and several nuns who were preparing lunch there.
"Oh, it's Shen Tong, welcome back."
After seeing Shen Tong, Soma smiled kindly and greeted him.
"Hello, Dean." Shen Tong also smiled back at Soma.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that Soma's face was a little wrong.
The female dean usually had a kind smile, but now her face revealed haggardness and worry, which was difficult to hide even with a smile.
Shen Tong could see that Soma must have something on his mind. After all, he could imagine the pressure of life in such a large orphanage.
Due to the large number of people, he did not go forward to ask, but returned to the room upstairs with Nina.
After entering the room, Shen Tong found a place to sit down and rest.
"Here is some bread, which I bought yesterday. Eat it if you are hungry."
Nina brought a few pieces of bread bought yesterday and handed them to him as lunch.
Shen Tong took the bread and looked at it. He felt that life in the orphanage was too hard. Fortunately, he was not an orphan when he was reborn. Otherwise, he would be skin and bones after living in such an environment for more than ten years.
"You have come back after so long. What are you going to do?"
Nina moved a chair and sat opposite him, asking him curiously.
Shen Tong paused after hearing it, and his eyes began to think.
The main goal of his entry into the city this time is of course to improve his strength, and to improve it quickly, preferably the faster the better.
But to do this, he must have a huge amount of silver support.
As for how to get silver, the answer is to make money.
The money Shen Tong refers to here is not ordinary paper money, but more advanced gold coins on the market.
Because gold coins can be exchanged for silver, and the ratio is 1 to 10.
As long as you have enough gold coins, you will naturally have more silver, and Shentong can buy ninjutsu, upgrade attributes, and become stronger in a short time.
However, it is not easy to earn gold coins, because only the upper class has this thing, and the rest are in the bank.
Shentong does not have the courage to "borrow" from the bank, so he can only choose the former. In this way, the difficulty of earning gold coins has greatly increased.
"There are very few tasks in the bounty association that use gold coins to reward targets. Only the task of hunting vampires uses gold coins as rewards."
"With my current strength, I am still slightly insufficient to deal with ordinary vampires. Even if I succeed in hunting, the gold coins I can get are limited."
"Besides, my current level cannot accept vampire tasks."
Shentong thought with a serious expression.
"By the way, when will you teach me magic? We agreed on it at the beginning."
At this time, Nina suddenly asked.
When Shentong heard the word magic, his eyes lit up instantly, and he thought of a wonderful method.
"Yes! There are ninjutsu and Sharingan, why am I so stupid?"
"As long as I pretend to be a vampire, and then find a local rich family, spray it with one or two fireballs, won't there be gold coins?"
Shentong suddenly felt that he was a genius, and he could think of such a good way to rob.
Indeed, Sharingan has the potential to be a vampire, and it is indeed not visible if you don't look carefully.
So far, this is the fastest way he can think of to make gold coins.
But before that, Shentong must solve a problem, that is, how to use Sharingan without being exposed.
"By the way, isn't there a mask of Obito in the achievement task?"
"Hehe..."
"I never thought that one day I would get to do things with the help of Brother Obito."
Shentong showed a weird smile, and there was a sense of anticipation in his heart.
After eating the bread, he said a few words to Nina, then hurriedly left the orphanage to find a place to make masks.
