Calvin was picked up by Dr. Holden during the darkest time of his life - yes, the darkest time for him was not the days with his neurotic, drug-addicted mother and his stepfather, who always tried to molest him, but the months of wandering after he escaped from the RV.

Life is difficult for most people in this world, and even more so for a deformed, beautiful and fragile underage boy. Calvin's magnificent wings required elaborate and meticulous care, and the heavy rain soaked his feathers thoroughly, and Calvin spent a short time in a wooded area near the road, when he began to feel dizzy, sore throat, and weak, and then he broke one of his right legs, and his wings were sprained. Then he passed out, and when he woke up he was hungry and his wings were itching like crazy, and by the time he realized that the itch was coming from the little bugs that had grown in the dense feathers of his wings, it had been days since he had escaped from the RV.

One night he climbed into the back of a pickup truck parked on the side of the road to warm up, he fell asleep, and by the time he was yelled at and kicked out, he had come to a completely unfamiliar city - it was slightly better than in the woods, at least Calvin could always find something to eat in the garbage cans. The downside was that there were always people who wanted to come to his rescue, Calvin was terrified, he was afraid that those people would send him to that terrible prison if they found out that he had killed someone, so he always tried to avoid them, he couldn't even beg, and he learned to carefully avoid other people when he was searching for food, whether it was a well-meaning citizen, an enthusiastic social worker, or an indifferent scavenger. During that time, he lived like a real little mouse in the gutter. As of this point, things were not too bad, but Calvin's fever did not improve at all, and the pain and swelling of his body became more and more common, and finally one day, Calvin shook off his wings and became white maggots. The homeless men began to chase Calvin away, after all, for people like them, the epidemic could be said to be deadly, and Calvin looked like something was wrong, the boy's body began to emit the stench of a decomposing corpse, and the strange bulge behind his back and the white worms that shook out of his sleeves were simply terrifying.

In fact, Calvin's memory of that time was very vague, and his high fever kept him in a semi-comatose state almost all day. The only thing he remembered was that he had collapsed in a secluded, deserted alley, and then a wild dog—a huge, nightmarish black dog—appeared in front of him.

The giant black dog grinned, saliva trickling down his white, interlaced white teeth.

Calvin stared blankly at the dog's blood-red pupils, a greedy, almost tyrannical hunger shot through the black dog's eyes, but Calvin didn't even feel the strength to fear. He lay limply on the ground and watched the dog dada approach him.

Then, the dog bit Calvin's wrist, where there were the tooth marks left by the red deer. Its teeth sank deep into Calvin's skin, and hot blood trickled down Calvin's elbows.

Little by little, the dog dragged Calvin into the darkness of the alley......

And Calvin also lost his last consciousness at this time.

By the time he woke up again, he was already lying on a clean, clean sheet.

Dr. Holden, the owner of a pet clinic and a black-market doctor with a veterinary license but a knack for gunshot wounds, heard his son screaming, rushed out, and found a dying boy with huge wings next to his family's trash can — a bloody, human tooth mark on his hand.

……

"I thought you were one of those legendary little angels," Detective Isaac grumbled hoarsely as Calvin pulled his fake ostrich feathers out of his fake ostrich, "what the hell happened to you to become the unpleasant ghost you are now?"

Some glittering tears remained on his face, and Calvin glanced at him, then lowered his eyes.

"Shut up. ”

He said.

He took the flaky alcohol wipes out of the drawer and tossed them to Isaac, then walked to the door and opened it.

"Isha, you can come in-"

Calvin's voice stopped abruptly.

His face turned pale for a moment.

The door to the lounge was empty, and there was no sign of the little young girl with ginger hair.

"Isha?!"

Calvin shouted the girl's name and rushed out. In a short split second, he had conceived dozens of worst-case scenarios.

He ran out of the staff hallway and saw Isa's yellow hair.

She was dragged and dragged out of the staff area.

"Isha!"

Calvin rushed over, and he almost threw the man who was holding Isha out, but fortunately before that, he saw the man's face.

It was a face with heavy makeup, a pompous royal blue wig hanging crookedly on her head, and a woman's dry, no longer youthful face underneath the inferior foundation.

"Madeleine?"

Calvin froze, then called out her name.

The woman grinned at Calvin and sprayed a puff of cigarette in his face.

"Good evening...... Redbeard's little white face. ”

She laughed.

“…… I'm sorry, Brother Calvin, I should have called you, but Mom wouldn't let me speak. ”

Isha grabbed Madeleine's hand with a pale face, tilted her head and whispered to Calvin in an explanation.

"Yes," Madeleine shoved Isha behind her, and she staggered there, her hand holding the cigarette resting on Calvin's shoulder, "I don't really like my daughter talking to □□ perverts. ”

"Hey, lady, I don't really like the way you speak. ”

Isaac's voice came from behind Calvin, who had just chased after Calvin, who looked in disgust at the drunken woman's messy makeup and revealing clothes, and the woman's bony legs were covered with conspicuous scars under the short skirt that had struggled to cover her ass.

A □□ so typical of the inferior that it is hard to imagine that she could be Isa's mother.

Madeleine gestured her middle finger at Aizak.

"Isn't it cool that little Helen tastes like this? You know, the men are almost in love with him—"

Isaac's body moved slightly, but Calvin pressed directly on his shoulder and gave him a warning look.

"Isha, are you sure your mom can take you home...... Do you have somewhere to go tonight?"

Calvin looked at Madeleine's state with some concern, and it was clear that Madeleine's guests today were not merciful to her men.

Isha smiled reluctantly at Calvin.

"Yes...... Mom said we could stay at her church for a while during this time. ”

Calvin's brow furrowed.

"Church? wait, what church ......"

"The Coming Church - The Church That Saves Us - "

Madeleine interrupted Calvin's words, and at the hearing of the word "church," her feelings seemed to rise at once.

"It is the angel of the flesh, the church of the coming Messiah of this world...... I...... Now he is also a person who is favored by angels...... Cluck...... I've been saved......"

The woman, who had been delirious by the alcohol, had no idea of Calvin's stiffness, and she seemed pleasant, and she pulled a chain from her chest with trembling hands and shook it in front of Calvin.

"Look, Il! Angel ...... The angels will give me a qiē. ”

Underneath the chain hung a heavy cross, and in the middle of the cross, a young boy with long white-blond hair and dark purple eyes, unbelievably human, was staring at Calvin with empty eyes.

Calvin took a slow breath, hoping he wasn't trembling.

"You've joined...... Adventists?"

Madeleine smirked at him.

"I ...... And Isa. She tugged her daughter's wrist tighter, "We are all Adventists. ”
