Chapter 35: The Promise with Layla
"Boy, get out of here right now." A man in a black suit pointed a gun at a young girl of 6 or 7 years old and threatened a boy who had been kicked to the ground, "I don't mind killing her if you were still so stubborn." ”
"Damn." Although the boy wanted to resist, the other party had hostages in his hands, so he didn't dare to stand up even if he wanted to.
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the boy couldn't help but close his eyes, but nothing happened, but he heard some strange sounds, as if something had fallen in front of him.
"It's ugly." At this time, the boy heard a childish voice, opened his eyes, and found that the man's gun had fallen in front of his eyes, and behind the man, a boy of his own age was holding a gun to the back of the man's heart.
Get lost. Seemingly dismissive of the man, the boy with the gun snorted coldly, and the man crawled away.
"Reco." At this point, the boy found himself in the arms of a girl about the same age as the boy with the gun.
"Thank you so much, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do." After returning to the boy's house, the boy thanked him solemnly, "Your name is Torre, right, can you help us?" ”
"Are you in trouble?" Torre slouched lazily on a tattered couch.
The boy then explained to Torre his current situation, orphans who had lost their parents in the war or had been abandoned for various reasons, and were now led by a boy named Tim and a girl named Layla, who were doing some shoe repairs
But not long ago, a violent gang took a fancy to the abandoned factory where they are now located, and if they left this abandoned factory, they would have nowhere to go, so they hoped that Torre could help protect this place.
"I refuse." Torre uttered something that disappointed Tim, "This has nothing to do with me. With that, Torre left the room, leaving only the disappointed Tim and Eve, and Layla.
Torre and Eve didn't leave the factory, and although Torre wasn't going to help them, there was no need to leave so quickly, so they stayed here to play with the children, while Eve talked to Layla all the time. Later, I also prepared with Layla
Dinner.
After dinner, the violent gang of the day came again, and given that Torre had guns during the day, they came a dozen people, and all of them had guns.
"Imps, leave this factory today." One of the brightly dressed men made a victor-like declaration.
"Are you going or am I going?" In the face of the dozen or so people with guns, Torre was still so leisurely, asking Eve in an indifferent tone.
"I'll do it." Eve walked out slowly.
"What are you doing, how can you let her fight with those people alone." Tim was angry that Torre was completely oblivious to Eve's actions.
"I advise you to watch it, she's one of the strongest people in the world." Torre ignored Tim's angry tone.
"Little ghost? You're underestimating people. A grumpy little minion shot first, and then several other tricks followed suit.
However, in the rain of bullets, Eve's body did not change, and not even a corner of her clothes moved, "What's going on?" A dragon trick noticed something unusual, but it was too late, and his hands and feet suddenly softened as if they were out of control, and several other people
He also collapsed to the ground like him, "Ah! Only then did he feel a strong pain, as if his hands and feet had been cut off.
"Get out of here with them, and never appear in front of me." Eve's tone was extremely indifferent, and with the few people rolling on the ground, the few people who were okay trembled, and hurriedly helped the fallen people to escape.
"It's amazing, how did my sister defeat them just now?" A curious child asked, tugging at the corner of Eve's coat.
"I see, worthy of a princess." Only Torre saw what was going on, and at the moment when the men fired, Eve split dozens of strands of hair to form an invisible net to block the bullets, and then used the strands of hair to smash the hands and feet of those who shot
The tendons are severed, and Torre has to be careful to deal with this kind of attack
"No problem, brother." Eve told Tim about their situation to see if he could do anything good.
"It's not a problem, just let that guy in Ribu handle it." Wu Ming's solution was very simple, he asked Ribu to use the power of the mayor to open a new orphanage in the town, and then send Tim and them in, and let them go to school like ordinary children when the time came
After learning, they can live on their own feet.
"Eve, thank you so much and Mr. Wu Ming." Layla is also happy to have a new home.
"It's nothing, in fact, I envy you more." Eve's words made Layla a little puzzled.
"Why?" Layla didn't understand what Eve meant.
"My brother and I don't even know who our parents are, you at least know that you still have parents, even if they are not there now, at least they have left some memories, but my brother and I have nothing." Eve showed a sad side.
"I'm sorry for reminding you of something bad." Layla hurriedly apologized.
"It's nothing, it's just that I feel a little emotional, and now my life with my brother is not bad." At this time, Eve noticed a photograph of three people, namely Tim, Layla, and another person, Leo, the air envoy of the Star Apostle, "This
Individuals are your companions? Eve pointed to Leo in the photo.
"He's our former leader, but then he's gone," Layla said, choking up a little.
"I've seen him." Eve's words shook Layla's spirits, "But he probably won't want to come back now." ”
"So Eve, can I ask you for something?" "If you can see Leo again, please tell him, we're all waiting for him to come back." ”
"I see."
"Thank you, Eve, and that's it."
"It's okay, because I'm friends with Layla."
