Chapter 1: Superpowers

Next Chapter

Chen Sheng lives in a line at home and the game hall every day.

Grandpa said that he was adopted from an orphanage, anyway, he had never seen it, and Chen Sheng never thought about finding out who his biological parents were, and he was used to living a hard life since he was a child, and he would not envy others for having parents, being able to dress well, eat well, and go to the amusement park to play.

There are no goals, no dreams, and no so-called passions, living is just to live.

When he was eight years old, his grandfather left, and Grandma Chen, a neighbor who helped with the funeral, couldn't bear to see that Chen Sheng was still an eight-year-old child, so she took Chen Sheng home, and the old and the young were each other's companions.

But only a year later, Grandma Chen's child came back from abroad, helped her go through various procedures, and took her to live abroad.

Grandma Chen left the one-bedroom and two-hall house to Chen Sheng, and arranged for Chen Sheng to help in a game hall opened by a distant relative, take care of two meals, and give some pocket money every month.

In this way, Chen Sheng grew to the age of twelve.

Until this night, Chen Sheng came out of the game hall and walked on the way home.

A little girl of seven or eight years old stumbled forward along the sidewalk, looking back from time to time.

A group of people chased around the corner of the street, saw the back of the little girl, shouted a few times, and accelerated their pace towards the little girl.

Before Chen Sheng could understand what had happened, he felt a wave of dizziness in his mind for no reason, and when he opened his eyes again, the world in front of him suddenly became different.

The motorcycle in front of him raised two gray lines and shot towards the two people who were chasing, connecting the bodies of the two people, and at the same time, a picture appeared in his consciousness, showing that the motorcycle was pressed against the two people.

On the left side of the body, there is a rope tied to the wall with a live buckle, and the same gray wire is attached to the other two people, and several pictures in the consciousness show that the live buckle is pulled open, and the advertising flag on it will fall and wrap around the bodies of the two people who are chasing after them.

The little girl, who seemed to have lost her strength, was getting slower and slower, but still looked back from time to time.

A red thread shot towards Chen Sheng with the little girl's turn, firmly nailed to his heart, without any hint or reason, Chen Sheng suddenly felt that he had to help this girl, he must help this woman.

Then, just like the picture he saw, Chen Sheng first overturned the motorcycle with all his might, suppressed the two people who had just run to his side, and then untied the live buckle of the rope on the wall, and the advertising flag fell, covering the two people who chased after him.

Chen Sheng ran forward and picked up the little girl, the twelve-year-old he didn't feel hard holding the seven or eight-year-old little girl, the strange thing is that the little girl didn't refuse, nor did she cry, when Chen Sheng held her, she stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around Chen Sheng's neck, rested his chin on his shoulder, and quietly looked at the four people lying on the ground until he couldn't see it.

After going around two alleys, Chen Sheng took the little girl back to the house that Grandma Chen left for him.

Entering the door and putting the little girl on the sofa, Chen Sheng squatted down, looking at the little girl's eyes bent into the moon, an indescribable emotion was born in his heart, and the words he originally wanted to ask came to his mouth, and he became like coaxing a child: "Are you hungry or not, is it okay for my brother to cook for you?" ”

"Okay." The little girl looked at the brother in front of her, and after responding crisply, she jumped off the sofa, took Chen Sheng's hand and said, "I want to wash my face first, it's all dirty." ”

Chen Sheng naturally pinched the little girl's face, led her to the bathroom to wash her hands and face, took out his childhood clothes and changed them for the little girl, and then went to the kitchen to cook two packs of instant noodles, and added a few green vegetables and two poached eggs to the little girl's bowl.

After eating, the little girl who was tired of running was sleepy, Chen Sheng cleaned up the other bedroom and prepared to live in it for the little girl, but the little girl grabbed Chen Sheng's arm and looked at him with an aggrieved face.

Chen Sheng had no choice but to sit on the edge of the bed, learning that when he was a child, his grandfather coaxed himself to sleep with a little girl, coaxing and coaxing, not knowing how he fell asleep.

When she woke up, the little girl was staring at Chen Sheng with big eyes, and when she saw Chen Sheng wake up, the little girl said solemnly: "Brother, my name is Li Shi, you must remember it." ”

"My brother will remember." Chen Sheng stretched out his hand and pinched the little girl's fleshy face, turned over and sat up, rubbed his face, and made himself sober, Chen Sheng turned around, looked at Li Shi and asked, "Were those people traffickers yesterday, why are they chasing you?" What about your family? ”

"Lost." Li Shi grinned, and said with a crying voice: "Those people chased me from a long distance, my parents drove me for a long time, but I was still caught up, and then my father hid me in a supermarket, and asked me not to come out even if it was closed, saying that someone would come to pick me up, but I wanted to find my parents and they found me when I came out." ”

"Then you ran out, how will the person who picked you up find you?"

"I have this." Li Shi pulled out a necklace from the collar, pinched the pendant and said to Chen Sheng: "My mother said that as long as this is here, the people in the family can find me." ”

"Oh." Chen Sheng didn't know the reason, thought about it, and said, "Then you will live in your brother's house first, and wait for your family to pick you up." ”

In the following three days, Chen Sheng took a leave of absence and accompanied Li Shi wholeheartedly, because he was afraid of being discovered when he went out, the two stayed at home watching cartoons, and told each other about the interesting things they experienced when they were children, or heard and seen.

Also plays backgammon.

Chen Sheng also forgot it, since he found out that he had superpowers, and he knew the method of use without a teacher, he secretly used superpowers to cheat in the next period, and every chess piece that was ready to play could give birth to a line, which was accurately connected to the position of the game.

But Li Shi picked it up and dropped it casually, every chess piece was so correct that it couldn't be more correct, and what made Chen Sheng even more frustrated was that Li Shi was obviously not very serious, yawning while playing, and seemed to be bored to the extreme, but just like that, he never made a mistake.

After the chessboard couldn't be placed, Chen Sheng lost interest, and the two continued to tell stories, not only about fun things, but also about their own troubles.

These three days were the most satisfying three days in Chen Sheng's life.

Li Shi always sweetly called Chen Sheng's brother, and Chen Sheng didn't know why, so he called Li Shi a little princess very easily.

In Chen Sheng's heart, he really regards Li Shi as a little princess.

When Chen Sheng woke up on the fourth day, Li Shi, who was used to sleeping with his body curled up in his arms, was gone, and the necklace and pendant on Li Shi's body were left at the head of the bed.
