Chapter 80: Let Go of That Boy!
New York University Medical Center.
As soon as the doctor came out, the John Coleman family gathered around.
"The bleeding in the abdomen has stopped, but he has a serious neck injury and is in stable condition at the moment, so you are lucky. ”
The doctor said.
"Can we see him?"
John asked.
"We'll have to wait. ”
"He's still in the ICU," the doctor said. ”
"Thank God. ”
John's wife breathed a sigh of relief, then exclaimed, "Can he tell us what happened?"
At this time, the only one who sat there and did not move, the one who looked at Adam and made Adam take the initiative to retreat, and the little girl newly adopted by the Coleman family, Esther, looked at him suddenly.
"Possibly. ”
The doctor nodded, "But we won't know for sure until he wakes up." ”
Esther retracted her gaze, her thumbs twisted together in circles, as if thinking about something.
"Come with me, John, I have something to tell you. ”
John's wife, Kate, took one look at Esther, pulled John around the corner, and told her husband of her suspicions.
"I know you're emaciated, and so am I, but there must be some other explanation, how could Esther be from a mental hospital, and how could he have done those horrible things?"
John frowned.
"How do you know?"
"The orphanage didn't know where she came from, and Sister Abigail sensed the problem, came over and asked, and then she was murdered."
I tugged her lightly, and her arm was broken?
And I'm pretty sure I pulled the handbrake when I parked, oh my God, John, it's a big steep slope, how can I park there if I don't pull the handbrake?
This time, how could the treehouse suddenly catch fire, the fire was so big in the blink of an eye, and it trapped Danny on it, and Danny jumped down, only Danny, Max and her on the scene, she didn't do it, could it be Max?"
"Hehe, Kate. ”
John smiled and shook his head, "Why don't you think about your own reasons? Alcoholism, depression, irritability, oh God! Don't blame all the problems on Aster, she's just a child!"
“......”
Kate looked at her husband in despair, after she posed so many doubts, he even denied her without even thinking about it, and was unwilling to give her the slightest trust, what is the meaning of such a life?
"I can leave, if that's what you want, but I have one condition, Esther must leave with me, I have to protect my children. ”
Esther watched this scene quietly, and when Kate pointed at her emotionally, a fierce light flashed in her eyes, and she instantly retracted, and said obediently to the grandmother waiting beside her: "Can you give me 1 knife to buy soda?"
"Your mother told you to wait here. ”
Grandma refused.
Esther hung her head gloomily.
"Here you go, but don't go for too long. ”
Grandma couldn't bear it and gave her money.
Esther took the money, gave her grandmother a sweet smile, and got up to leave.
Max, a deaf and dumb little girl sitting on the other side of her grandmother, seemed to understand something, and looked at the departing figure in confusion.
Turning around, Esther, with a fierce face, strode towards the ward, and bumped into a stupid teenager wandering around in the middle, she glared at him fiercely in a hurry, frightened him, and left quickly.
This stupid teenager is none other than Leonard.
After subconsciously chasing after Esther, just a few steps away, an IQ of up to 173 went online, and Leonard immediately sensed that something was wrong with Esther.
Fierce and fierce little girl, he has seen too much since he was a child (first-hand, tears), but none of them can compare to Esther.
It's not the eyes of ordinary ruthless characters at all, but some of them are as terrifying as the prey described in the book when it is targeted by a cold-blooded butcher.
"What should I do?"
After seeing Esther glance left and right, and after flashing into the ICU, Leonard's bad premonition in his heart became even stronger, but 'steady' was like him, just standing there and watching from afar, as if his body was frozen.
"Leonard, are you here? I've taken a shift, let's go to my apartment first, and I'll take you to have some fun in the afternoon." ”
That's when Adam came over.
"Adam, you're finally here......"
Leonard was so excited that he suppressed the fear in his heart and said his guess in a trembling voice: "What should we do now?"
Adam frowned, glanced at the ICU, and ignored it, because as soon as he heard Leonard's description, the little girl who exuded a similar aura to his ex-girlfriend Magic Amy immediately came to his mind.
This is not Juno, who he knows the details well, he knows the rules of American dramas, and he understands that the best choice at this moment is to pull Leonard and ignore it and walk away.
But in the face of Leonard's expectant eyes, this kind of reason was a little cold-blooded, and he couldn't say anything.
"Damn, why are your eyes so big and so vivid?!Penny is right, it's hard to refuse in the face of Leonard's eyes. ”
Adam complained in his heart: "Fortunately, Leonard is not a big dog, and Penny does not have pets......"
"Follow me. ”
Adam took the lead and walked briskly towards the ICU.
This is a hospital, or during the day, people come and go, he now has a strength of 260 and an endurance of 480, and the other party is just a little girl, and the safety factor is ninety percent......
Well, hold it steady, nine out of eight!
Leonard trembled and followed, his eyes were the same as Tang Xiaoyou holding an ice pick, both nervous and excited.
Looking at Adam's figure, many images flashed through his mind.
Yes, Adam is dressed in a batsuit and incarnated as Batman, and he is Robin.
Yes, Adam wears a steel armor and incarnates Iron Man, while he is the bodyguard Harpy.
In short, Adam is a superhero, and he is the superhero's right-hand man.
Although it is not his dream all along, it is all about saving the world, but the division of labor is different, and it can be regarded as a dream that has come true, which is too exciting.
in the ICU.
A boy is lying in a hospital bed, unconscious.
Esther walked in, closed the door, closed the curtains, a sneer on her face, unplugged the pulse monitor attached to the boy's fingers, removed the breathing mask, and covered the boy's head with a pillow the moment the boy woke up.
The boy was frightened and gradually suffocated.
"What are you doing?!"
"Let go of that boy!"
Adam and Leonard pushed the door in, and through the curtain, they vaguely saw the movement inside, and with a loud shout, they tore open the curtain and bumped into this scene.
Esther's hands didn't stop, he just turned around and looked at them coldly.
Although she looks like a little girl, she is an adult older than Adam and Leonard combined, and she has more lives on her hands than she can count, so her psychological quality is naturally extremely strong.
Adam stepped forward and pulled Estelle down.
Esther pushed Leonard, who was in the way, and ran away with a puff of smoke.
Adam has no intention of stopping it, because he has more important things to do, which is to save people, and under Esther's cover, the boy has already suffered a cardiac arrest.
