CHAPTER XVII
Adam, who had been missing for months, is back!
From the moment Wu Ming walked out of Gilbert's territory, this news was told by everyone in the clan running to each other, and it was transmitted to all directions with the momentum of water discharge. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
That night, Wu Ming spent thirty gold coins to buy a spacious house in the town, and moved in with the Yang family, followed by many fox friends who came to the door after hearing the news. Wu Ming wanted to calm down and communicate more with the Yang family's grandfather and grandson, but seeing this scene, he could only spare the rest of the day to entertain the endless stream of guests who came to offer condolences.
I have to say how notorious Adam is in the town, just by looking at the identity of the visitor, most of the people who come to the door are groups of ruffians, peddlers and pawns, and the better ones are also gang members, or friends who grew up together in the orphanage, and there is almost no trace of the well-dressed dignitaries.
"I'm ...... Became a bandit leader? ”
Looking at a room of wine and meat friends in strange costumes and hippie smiling faces, Wu Ming couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't know any of these people, but he had to make a familiar look at everyone, not to mention the hardships.
At this time, there were two teenagers who were not much different from him in the same age: one was tall and thin, full of blond hair, and looked unsmiling; The other boy was a little shorter, with shaved hair and only slag, and a clever and slippery style.
Both teenagers are members of the town's Black Gold Gang and are orphans like Adam. The blonde tall and thin boy is named Kim Lawrence, and the shorter boy is named Wang Haibao, and the two grew up with Adam in the You Whale Orphanage, and they are Adam's best friends on weekdays. This time, as soon as they heard that Adam had disappeared and reappeared, the two immediately rushed to Adam's new home as fast as they could, as if Adam would disappear again if they had come slowly.
"Thank goodness man, you're finally back intact." On the sofa in the main hall, Haibao hooked up with Wu Ming's shoulder and sighed with emotion.
"What happened to you when you've been missing for so long? Tell us about it. Compared with Haibao, Kim Lawrence has already developed a serious and cautious personality at a young age, and he only shush the cold and ask a few warm words, and then he gets straight to the point, wanting to know the real reason for Wu Ming's disappearance.
"I was kidnapped by a gang of robbers, and it took a lot of effort to escape, so there's nothing to worry about."
In the face of these two teenagers who have played with Adam since childhood, where does Wu Ming dare to say a word? He was afraid that the two would see through his disguise, so he responded with modal words such as "oh" and "um" throughout the chat with the two, so as to say as little as possible. It's a pity that the two have a deep friendship with Adam, and they don't know what politeness is at all, and they look like they break the casserole and ask the end, so they have to force Wu Ming to say something.
Wu Ming had no choice but to come up with a set of prepared rhetoric to deal with it.
"I understand, isn't it because of that person that you don't dare to tell the truth?"
Wang Haibao saw that Wu Ming was hesitant, and thought that he had guessed his thoughts, so he came closer with a finger, his mouth was closed, Wu Ming could see clearly, he was clearly reciting the word "Sack" silently.
Wu Ming said that he was suffering, and he snorted noncommittally. I didn't want Haibao to admit it directly, and said indignantly: "Hateful, Sister Lisa is such a gentle and good woman, she is naturally warm-hearted, and she has never offended anyone, but she was taken by the young master of the beast and fell into this fate, it is really a good person who has no good retribution......"
Haibao wanted to say more, but Jin Yi next to him covered his mouth and said in a deep voice, "You don't say a few words." ”
Haibao also knew that he was speechless for a while, and looked at Wu Ming worriedly, but saw that Wu Ming did not show an angry face, but dragged his chin with one hand, and fell into deep thought.
"In your hearts, Sister Lisa...... What kind of person is he? ”
After pondering for a long time, Wu Ming suddenly asked.
This topic was so abrupt that Kim and Hypertherm looked at each other, and they didn't know how to answer for a while.
For a long time, Jin sighed and said with some displeasure: "Adam, I didn't say you, although you and Sister Lisa have always had a bad relationship, but she is your sister after all, what kind of person is Sister Lisa...... You should know this question best, don't you? ”
Doesn't Adam have a good relationship with his sister?
Wu Ming was silent, Jin looked at his silent appearance, and a wave of anger surged in his heart, what else did he want to say, and finally turned his anger into a long sigh.
His mind was a little confused.
Kim Lawrence loves Lisa.
It's not much of a secret, and many of his friends who play well know about it - even Adam himself knows it.
In fact, many orphans of the same age as Adam have been cared for by Lisa, and they all like this gentle and kind big sister very much, but only Kim's affection for Lisa has exceeded the level of ordinary "like" and reached the level of ****. When Lisa was still alive, Kim tried to express his heart to Narisa many times, but he couldn't say it until the end.
Like Adam, Kim is an orphan, Adam is lucky enough to be adopted by the Gilbert family, while Kim grows up alone without any relatives, and Lisa is his only relative.
He can't give Lisa anything, and can only silently accept the care of the other party.
It wasn't until Lisa was accepted as a concubine by Young Master Ron that Jin completely broke off the charming thoughts in his heart and treated the other party as a sister, but he didn't know how long such a depressed emotional life could last.
The oppressive life is over, but it is ushered in complete despair, and when the news of Lisa's death comes, Kim is so grief-stricken that she cries so much that she can't even sleep every night. Coupled with the fact that Adam had lost his trace again, King had lost a few laps of weight throughout his life, so much so that he almost didn't recognize him with the few people he knew best.
Kim wants to avenge Lisa and dreams of seeing that kind of picture. But he is just an orphan at the bottom of the society, and he failed to even pass the adventurer assessment, and after joining the Black Gold Gang, he also mostly does some miscellaneous work, and he may not even be able to kill an ordinary person, let alone kill the only son of the most powerful general in the empire.
Looking at Wu Ming with an indifferent face in front of him, Jin suddenly looked down on this brother who had played since he was a child, and even with it, he hated his cowardly self a little.
"Adam, do you remember the vows we made together in the orphanage?"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Kim's mouth.
Wu Ming didn't expect the other party to mention the topic of "once" again, and he was about to prevaricate with words like "forgot", Jin had already said his original vow, "In the future, I will become a great adventurer and go to the imperial capital together." ”
He was silent for a moment, then sneered, "What a child's talk." ”
