But Vander didn't take it too seriously.

Because he knows that everyone has their own secrets, especially these refugees. The more anxious something is, the more impossible it will be to do it. If you push it too hard, it will backfire.

The refugees followed Vander to the depths of the mansion. At every intersection, they could see fully-armed personal bodyguards, and they immediately felt great comfort.

The Rothschild family's mansion covers a vast area, and the tall courtyard is built with strong walls, as strong as the ancient stone walls of a fortress. There are several roads and dozens of houses in the house alone, showing extraordinary strength.

It can almost be said that most of the wealthy neighborhoods are owned by their families.

Vander deliberately settled the refugees in several well-guarded houses. After settling the others, he left the old man behind them and instructed the family bodyguards in front of the refugees to guard the tower by day and night. Keep these people safe.

Then he said calmly, "Don't worry, everyone, this is the safest place, and you don't have to worry anymore."

Everyone is grateful, and the heart that has been hanging for many days is finally at ease.

Finally, Vander took the old man to a house next to him, not far from the other refugees. After everything was arranged, he turned around and made a gesture to leave.

"Uh, wait a minute..."

When passing by the old man, Fender's arm was suddenly grabbed.

"Well, what, do you have something else to do?"

Fender smiled indifferently, then turned his head and asked with a smile.

"I don't know what to say, but I understand in my heart that you must have a lot of things to ask me, right?" The old man released his hand and whispered.

Sometimes, the old man could feel a trace of pity from Vander.

At other times, what he felt was the curiosity he was trying to suppress.

"Oh... Did you see it?" Fender looked at the old man in surprise, stunned for a moment, and nodded.

"certainly…"

The old man let out a long sigh and looked extremely sad, and said, "We strangers came here suddenly, not only did your family not ask anything, but as if they knew in advance that we were coming, they prepared food to entertain everyone, unconditionally. Take us in...if you want to ask me anything, ask me."

"Okay, I'll get straight to the point."

The muscles on Vander's face twitched slightly, and he said bluntly, "I want to know now, why do you have the badge of our family? Where did this thing come from?"

"Of course...she gave it to us."

The old man's eyes wandered, and he moved to another place in an instant, as if he didn't dare to look into Vander's eyes.

"She gave...?"

Vander's heart contracted violently.

"You should know who I'm talking about. She said that this thing is an important certificate. As long as we find its owner, we can get the most effective protection." The old man's voice was small, shaking his head slightly.

Oh, it sure is!

After not running, Vander's heart widened and he was relieved immediately.

After the old man's simple explanation, he was sure that the "she" in the other's mouth was his savior. However, the doubts in his heart not only did not decrease, but even more.

"Looks like I was right. She told me then that she has some friends in town, and if they come, let me take care of them," Vander said truthfully.

"She's your friend...?"

The old man's expression seemed to change, and his lips moved a few times, "But it doesn't make sense... I don't understand, when... why did she get to know such a big man as you? She was obviously with us and just arrived... "

"To be honest, she saved me from the Xuan Gang and was my savior."

The corner of Vander's mouth pursed, and said indifferently, "If it is her request, then my family will satisfy her even if they do everything they can, unconditionally!"

"Is she your savior?"

The old man's expression was very complicated, staring at Fender's eyes and muttering.

"Yes, in the true sense, she gave me my life. It can also be said that she is the benefactor of our entire family." Vander's tone was beyond doubt.

"Yeah...she's saved more than one life..."

After a while, the old man suddenly shook his shoulders and seemed to be crying.

"Anything wrong? Uh...you...?"

Fender noticed that the old man's emotions were turbulent, and he stopped just as he was about to speak.

He thought to himself that there must be something wrong in what he said just now, which made the old man feel deeply.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuyyyyyyyyyyyyyy—forgive us—"

The old man's choked voice turned into another ugly tone, like a low-pitched plea, and it became incoherent.

"We're not as good as beasts... woo woo... no one wants to really do that, but we betrayed her in the face of those thugs... indeed everyone betrayed her... we were scared, everyone knew, our She gave her life... but no one dared to stand up..."

"Oh?!"

"Betrayal? What did you say, you betrayed her?" Fender was surprised, his mind was racing, trying to understand the meaning of the old man's words.

What the **** is going on here?

——

a few hours later.

When the strange cold wind at night blows from the mountains and forests, it carries a despairing breath.

The pine resin on the torches crackled, and the Rothschild family sat around in the courtyard and listened to Vander's words quietly. Everyone was quite shocked.

"So, she should be the assassin who broke through the city gate last night!?"

"But why did she save those refugees? These people are not related to her, not even related to her."

"If she did it to free these refugees, why did she choose to fight the gang and sacrifice herself?"

"This is so unreasonable, she can completely kill all those gangs that get in the way! Why is she willing to throw herself into the net?"

"I asked the cook, the mutated snake meat at dinner was bought from the butcher's shop, and it must have been peeled from the giant snake she killed."

"It's outrageous!"

"Let me see, her strength is by no means comparable to ordinary people, could it be... a powerful mutant?"

"Then how did she conflict with the Xuan Gang?"

Vander, Soros and others had a heated discussion, trying to restore the general outline of the matter, but every clue had a beginning and no end, making it difficult to see the truth.

After a long while, Soros wore a cloak, stared at the fire not far away, frowned and said, "I always thought there was a lot of strangeness in this matter, now it seems that everything is on the right number, I'm sure All should have a great connection with this benefactor."

"Yeah, we should be glad that our benefactor has a grudge against the Xuan Gang. This is God's will. Next, it's time for us to make a choice."

Fander also nodded, and said solemnly, "Father, my intuition tells me that at this point, we must have a showdown with the Xuanming Gang, and we must find a way to rescue the family benefactor!"

Haolo listened for a long time, but didn't make a statement.

He lowered his head, his eyes were slightly closed, and his expression changed subtly.

Even if the devastation of years and old injuries made him hunched over and unable to straighten his spine, Hauluo was still the family's highest decision maker. Like a mountain, he bears the heavy responsibility of the rise and fall of the family.

"You said something, what should we do next?" Soros asked eagerly.
