Chapter 69: Youth
Crash!
At the moment when the officer's long sword pierced, a thin figure suddenly jumped out of the essence pile, I don't know if it was because he was taken aback or the opponent's stature was too short, an officer standing on the side subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab him but grabbed a void, the guy who looked like a thief moved quickly, presumably he also knew what would happen if he was caught by these people, so he also fought with all his strength, if there were only these officers present, maybe he would really let him run like this, but obviously, The few magicians present were not so easy to deal with, and before the thief could run out of the hall, a wall of air blocked his way, no matter how hard he tried, this thin body was really not enough to look at in front of several magicians.
Under the light, the thief's appearance appeared in front of everyone without concealment, he looked no more than ten years old, wearing ill-fitting clothes, and his thin body made it impossible to accurately judge his age from this point alone, but even so, the childishness on his face undoubtedly showed that he could still be regarded as a child, after realizing that he was trapped here, the frightened teenager knocked on the air wall blocking his way with some despair, and heard the footsteps of someone approaching behind him, He jerked around against the wall, and in a voice that was already a little trembling, he didn't know whether to say a threat or a plead, "Don't ...... Don't come here...... Stay back! “
"Did you hear that? He told you not to go there! "Although the officers say so, their faces [a^book^read^novel][.[ yb][du].] The happy smile could not be concealed, the young man who suddenly appeared was like their savior, not only them, but also the magicians standing behind them, for them, whether the young man was really a member of the group of thieves or not, as long as they caught him, they could give the Count an explanation, as for whether they could get something from him, it was no longer their business.
Several people sneered and gradually approached the young man, and the young man had no other way but useless warnings, and the corners of the earl's mouth were already showing a sinister smile, and he was almost already thinking about how to get the information he wanted from the young man's mouth, and how to punish the guy who stole his things......
……
"What are you still doing here? Why don't you catch him yet? “
That being said, that's right...... But in the face of the boy's threat, none of the officers present really moved, when they walked a few meters away from the boy, the officers all stopped, although the boy's threat was indeed not convincing, but they were not sure whether the boy was really carrying some kind of dangerous weapon as a backhand, as a rich private soldier commander, how could they let themselves take risks? After making eye contact, they unanimously stepped aside and handed over the initiative to the magicians: "After all, this thief was found by the magicians, and it is not appropriate for us to catch him, so I will give you the credit!" “
"This group of waste ...... who only know how to find women"
In the face of this group of cowards who didn't even dare to go up to a thin teenager, the magicians could only curse secretly, saying that they didn't want to do it themselves, but the other party's reasons were also high-sounding, not to mention that they were still partners at work, helplessly, one of the magicians stood up and hit the young man's abdomen with a few air bullets casually, how could the young man's thin body withstand these attacks, and after a few muffled snorts, he fell to the ground without resistance, and did not wait for several officers to rush up, The magician had already taken the initiative to go up and search, and after making sure that there were no weapons, he waved his hand to Count Carson, indicating that there was no problem.
"Huh...... This is really effortless" Although he was very dissatisfied with the performance of his group of "soldiers", but this gain still made him decide not to care about this kind of detail, he pushed away a few people in front of him, walked up and grabbed the young man by the collar, "You were abandoned here by your companions, right?" Or do you want to wait until we're gone? Give me an honest account! Even if you don't say it, I have many ways to get you to say it......"
After some threats, Count Carson suddenly felt that he was also a little stupid, after just being hit hard, the boy had almost fallen into a coma, he muttered a few words in displeasure, and at the same time waved his hand to the magician behind him: "Hurry up and wake him up for me, I will interrogate him properly!" “
No response.
"Did you hear what I said? Hurry up and wake this guy up! “
There was still no response, except for a few vibrations like footsteps.
What exactly are these guys trying to do? He didn't even listen to his own orders? Earl Carson couldn't help but feel a pang of displeasure in his heart, and turned around to reprimand them.
The few people who were still standing in the hall had all fallen to the ground except for him, and when he found that the young man's alarm circle did not make the slightest sound, Count Carson was a little panicked, he didn't know what opponent he was facing, but he didn't need to know, because when he woke up after being knocked unconscious, the boy and the person who rescued the boy had already fled.
……
Not......
The pain had not completely disappeared, and the young man who had regained consciousness reluctantly sat up from the ground, perhaps because of the previous injury, he immediately lay back on the ground before he could sit firmly.
What is this place...... The boy looked up with half-open eyes, the sky was still dark, only a little light was still illuminating the surroundings, and the hard touch of the ground came from behind, and it seemed that he was lying on the ground, remembering just now...... After being discovered, he was knocked unconscious by a magician, and after that, he ...... What happened after that......?
The boy had no impression, he turned his head slightly to look around, and what appeared in front of him was not a cold prison cell, but an ordinary Noxian street, who brought him here? How could that group of guys just let it go......
"Are you awake?"
Just when the young man was puzzled, a somewhat stiff greeting came from his side, the young man immediately barely supported his body, on the side of the wall, Zhao Xin was sitting there motionless looking at him, the young man was stunned for a moment, he probably guessed that this person rescued him, although he didn't know what the identity of the other party was, but no matter what, he still thanked: "Thank you for saving me, I ......"
"You don't have to say so much, it's not much, but it's enough to fill your stomach, take it." What Zhao Xin threw to him was the Demacia soldier's rations and a small bag of water made by Chad himself, which, as he had said before, was not tasty, but nutritious enough.
"Thank you...... Thank you! This may be the second surprise after being rescued, to be honest, the boy is almost hungry now, he did not have any doubts about this unknown food, he swallowed it all in a few bites, under the action of water, the compressed ration quickly swelled and filled the boy's stomach, and did not forget to pour the last bit of crumbs into his mouth.
"You seem to be very hungry, just now when I was treating you, I found that your body seems to be very thin, you should be thirteen years old this year, but looking at you like this, you don't look like a thirteen-year-old boy at all, is your usual life not easy?"
How did he know he was thirteen? Belch...... He seemed to have mentioned healing just now, and if he was a magician, it wouldn't seem strange to know about it through magic...... The boy didn't think much of it, but replied truthfully, "Yes...... If you can't get it...... Starvation is a regular occurrence when you complete a mission, so ......"
When he said this, Zhao Xin's body seemed to tremble, and the young man also noticed this, and he immediately closed his mouth without understanding what was going on, carefully waiting for the next move of the person in front of him.
"Really...... I see, so you don't have a family, are you an orphan? ”
"Huh?" When asked this question, the young man's face showed an obvious expression of resistance, this expression did not appear for long, perhaps because life forced the young man to understand too early not to show his feelings in front of strangers, he just shook his head silently, and said at the same time, "My parents...... They're all ordinary marginalists, and I don't want to be like them and only know how to work on the land, I ...... I wanted to be able to live a life where I could have glory, so I chose to leave them and join the Black Rose ......"
The young man didn't continue to speak, it could be seen that he was reluctant to choose to be so independent, but his firm expression showed that he did not regret choosing this path, Zhao Xin kept his head down and didn't say anything, and the atmosphere began to become extremely embarrassing, after waiting for a while, the young man finally couldn't help but stand up, walked to Zhao Xin's side and knelt down on one leg, and said solemnly in a mature tone that was completely inconsistent with his age: "Although I don't know your true identity, but Your Excellency will never forget when you rescued him tonight, If there's anything that can be done under it......"
"Really? Let me ask you a question first. ”
"Yes! Please command! ”
Zhao Xin didn't say it immediately, if the light was bright enough, you would find that his expression was hesitating, it seemed that there was still some fear, the young man didn't know what was happening, he could only wait silently on the side, and after a while, Zhao Xin finally asked with slightly trembling lips...... Is it called Direk? ”
"Hey......? Yes......" Direk was taken aback, but replied quickly.
"Okay then...... So, do you remember who I am? ”
