Chapter 272: Ruth's Identity

When the Beta armor was forcibly disarmed, Eric was almost speechless in surprise when he saw Ruth's fair face and long silver hair beneath the armor. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but he can read from Ruth's expression that the other party's surprise is not much more than his own.

Quickly calming down, Eric frowned slightly and asked, "So that's what you said you came to New York for?" Snatch the Beta armor? ”

"Not bad." Ruth simply admitted, "I'm here to get this armor in New York, and I need its power anyway." ”

"What are you going to do?" Eric asked, "Does it have anything to do with the brother you mentioned?" ”

"It's none of your business."

"It might have been, but not now." Eric said, pausing and asking, "Who are you?" ”

There was a brief silence.

Suddenly, she let go of the palm of her right hand, seemingly inadvertently. A small ball had been pinched in the palm of her hand at some point, and it rolled down from her fingers.

The intense white light was released in an instant, the retina was burned and painful, Eric subconsciously raised his arm to protect his eyes, and the helmet closed automatically, but his vision was still temporarily paralyzed.

When vision regained, there was no trace of Ruth in front of her. And, of course, the armor of the Amozo Beta was also missing.

Eric couldn't help but frown again, and the question came back to his mind.

Who is she?

So the weekend ended in a hurry, and it was a busy weekend for Eric. But despite the late night of the fight last night, he had to get up on time on Monday to get to school.

He yawned all the way to school, wasn't very conscious, and even the part of his brain was full of things about the girl named Ruth and Beta Armor, so much so that Raven, who was waiting for him at a certain intersection, greeted him and didn't react for a while.

"Ah, I'm sorry." When he finally noticed her, Eric apologetically, "I was a little distracted and didn't notice ......"

"Did something happen?" Raven asked.

"Nope."

"So...... You just forgot to look at your phone? ”

Looking at your phone?

Eric realized that he hadn't looked at his phone at all after a busy night yesterday, and that it was too late to go back to bed, and he hadn't checked if there was any new news on his phone until now.

He took out his phone and looked at it, only to realize that Raven had called him several times last night, and sent a text message asking if he had time to go to the house and said that he was going to have a supper. It's a pity that he hasn't looked at his phone since last night, so of course he hasn't replied to the message at all.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Eric hurriedly apologized, "Ugh..... Well, there was actually something going on yesterday, so I haven't had time to read the news......"

"I didn't mean to blame you." Raven shook his head and said, "Actually, every time you lie to me, I know it. ”

"Huh?" Embarrassed, Eric began to try to remember if he had lied to her a lot.

"But I know that if there's anything you won't say, you have your own reasons. But in fact, you don't have to hide it from me, I think I can share it for you no matter what, even if it's just a little bit. ”

At this point, she paused, and said as she walked forward, "But if you meet other girls you like, don't hide it from me." You saved me from being in bondage and are very important to me, but I don't have the right to force you to be with me for such reasons. I'm very happy that you've given me the way I am now, and it's my greed to try to get more......"

This sudden remark made Eric stunned for a moment, but her expression and tone were so flat that there was no trace of ups and downs, which made it a little difficult to digest what she said for a while.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute...... "Eric asked awkwardly, "do you think ...... Have I found a new girlfriend? ”

Raven was silent, but it felt like a tacit acquiescence.

Eric sighed, "I really didn't expect you to think that...... Okay, so let me tell you what I've been up to for the past two days. ”

So he told Raven everything about the Beta armor battle for the past two days, starting with the first time he was stopped outside the Aegis base in New Jersey the day before yesterday, and even the part where he met the mysterious silver-haired girl Ruth in the bar.

“...... That's about it. As Eric finished speaking, the two of them arrived at the school gate, and he finally added, "I didn't tell you just because I didn't want you to worry about these things, and they weren't really a big deal." One more ......"

He smiled and kissed Raven on the cheek, and she looked at Eric in surprise.

"I'm a little confident." He gently put his arm around Raven's shoulder, "I didn't choose to be with you for some unavoidable reason. It's been said a long time ago, right? I like you, that's why I chose to help you at that time, and that mood hasn't changed yet. ”

Raven's cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head slightly, "Well, thank you." ”

At this moment, Eric's mobile phone that he had just taken back rang again, and it was the ringtone of a text message reminder.

Pulling out his phone and glancing at the screen, he stopped and said, "Well, Sharon told me to go to her office first, I think it was for last night." Then you go to the classroom first. ”

"Hmm." Raven nodded and walked away.

When Eric pushed the door open and entered Sharon Carter's office, the pretty blonde agent was sitting at her desk in casual business attire, but her expression was rather solemn.

"Tell me something, I'm busy." Eric casually threw his bag on the sofa and sat down on the chair in front of his desk, not like a student invited by a teacher to talk, but like a leader who came to inspect the work.

Sharon said solemnly, "I have already seen what happened last night in the report. We also have a clue about the identity of the silver-haired woman who stole the Amodra Beta armor. ”

"Oh? Who is she? That's really what Eric is most concerned about right now.

"Her name is Ruth Wilson."

Wilson? Is this the last name that Ruth said she didn't want to mention? It didn't sound like a very distinctive last name, at least not to remind Eric of who the bastard dad she was talking about.

Eric's dazed expression was obviously expected, and Sharon continued, "Of course, maybe you are not familiar with the name, and this is normal. But you've probably heard of her dad's name - Slade Wilson, international codename, Death Knell. ”

For a moment, Eric froze, if there was a mirror in front of him, he thought his shocked expression in the mirror must have looked funny.

Death knell!? This girl she is ...... Deathknell's daughter!?
