Chapter 187: On the Way (2)

Aurora watched the scene in front of her coldly.

She had no intention to step forward to help from the very beginning while Les was staying beside her.

"Miss..." William looked at Aurora.

Aurora glanced at William and pointed at the man who fell to the ground and his condition unknown. "Rent a carriage to bring him to the hospital."

"Yes, Miss."

With money, it was easy for William to arrange for someone to send the man to the hospital. The few people who were watching at the side quickly stepped forward to take the job when they saw the silvers.

Yes, it was silvers.

Gold coins would be too eye catching, so Aurora had prepared enough silver coins and copper coins for her journey. Naturally, there were also some gold coins in her possession if she needed it.

The man was sent to the hospital and Prince Lester returned with the knights. He frowned when he saw that there was no one around them.

"Miss, sorry I’m late," Prince Lester apologized.

Aurora shook her head. "No, you’re not late. Come with me."

The knights who followed behind Prince Lester frowned and wanted to leave. But when they saw Aurora’s gaze glancing in their direction, their bodies turned stiff and they lowered their heads.

For some reasons, they felt as if they were facing someone of high position.

For those who were already at high position for a long time, there was a kind of oppression born that could deter those around them. It was this kind of deterrence that Aurora unconsciously exuded due to her long term being on the high position.

"William, lead the carriage to that area." Aurora pointed in the direction where the men left not long ago.

"Yes, Miss." William didn’t understand much, but he still followed Aurora’s order.

Behind Aurora, the knights who were in charge of this area looked at each other and then followed Aurora obediently. They didn’t dare to disobey her order and decided it would be best for them to listen to her.

Anyway, they didn’t usually have much to do.

Prince Lester and William didn’t ask any questions either and followed Aurora to lead the carriage in the direction where she pointed.

The few people who were watching discussed with themselves.

"Is it a noble?"

"Maybe?"

"But if they’re nobles, then it should be fine for them to make a move, right?"

"Who knows?"

These people knew that it was not that easy to deal with that group of troublemakers. They have been here for a long time and had quite the influence.

But if a noble were to make a move...

Then it should be fine.

The carriage moved forward and finally stopped beside the alleyway. Looking at the side, they could see the group of men were sitting around, counting their harvest from their robbery.

And not far from them, there was a young woman.

She was precisely the one who screamed and yelling not long ago.

Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Miss..." William’s eyes were filled with rage. He couldn’t believe that they were actually playing with his emotions like this. When he thought that these people chasing a helpless girl, they were actually in cahoots with each other.

How could he not be angry?

"It’s your job." Aurora glanced at the knights who followed them.

"Yes."

These knights stepped forward and subdued this group while Aurora signaled William to continue driving the carriage.

There was no need for them to stay here any longer.

Bang! Bang!

The sound of beating could be heard along with screams and yelling. It seemed that these people would not be brought down so easily.

Then again, they have been making trouble in this area for such a long time, how could they be willing to be arrested obediently.

"Miss, how do you know?" Les was inside the carriage with Aurora this time and she was awed.

Aurora glanced at Les and replied, "Screaming and yelling could never truly work. If it could work, would there be any need for one to make themselves stronger?"

"Huh?" Les was confused.

"We’re in the middle of the city and a woman ran away with a group of men behind her. Do you think it’s possible for her to run faster than the group of men?" Aurora asked back.

"No."

It was common knowledge that women were weaker than men physically. Even if there were some women who might be stronger because of their training, majority of women would not specifically train their strength.

There was no point for them to do so either.

"There are many people around and but everyone’s gaze seem as if they’re watching a show instead of unwilling to help or unable to help," Aurora replied. "People’s hearts will be cold if they’re faced with the same deception over and over again."

Such method of deception was not very common, but Aurora knew that there were some people who would do that.

Just like the one who came to trick Crown Prince Edward during that Sun Festival in the past.

Many people were unkind.

They have selfish heart and wanted the benefit for themselves to the point of breaking their own bottom line.

After all, if they knew that they could earn a lot of money through doing such an easy job, who would want to do the hard work again? They would rather choose this easy method over the hard method.

And the people who had watched such a scheme again and again.

Would they not know?

If they were tricked because this was their first time, then it would be fine. But after seeing it several times, if they still fell for it, then it mean they were stupid.

"This is a small city before a bigger city. Many travelers come to this place to rest, so it’s the best place to target some stupid people with kindness but had no ability," Aurora said calmly.

If they were strong enough, then it didn’t matter as they could really help the woman.

But if they were not strong enough?

Then they have to be prepared to suffer.
