Chapter 16: The Reason for Living
"Damn. ”
Aven Steve pursued it all the way, but eventually lost track of Vega.
I was ready to flee abroad for the worst, but then I heard the voice and saw a little hope, but I didn't expect that after hope, he was now swallowed up by despair again, and the ups and downs of this life stimulated him almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
But it's not without its gains.
He at least saw Vega's appearance clearly, and he found that Vega had been seriously injured, and he would definitely not be able to run far in this case.
There is no such thing as an intelligence chief in Kareni who doesn't know what is going on, and it's easy to stop that imp soldier before he gets the map to the army.
However, the strength of Vega's professional still made him a little jealous.
The priority now is to find the imp.
Evan leaped to the ground, whistling.
As soon as the whistle sounded, within three minutes a scattered crowd gathered from all directions, some were vendors selling supper, some were drinkers, some were housewives, and some were even children about 10 years old.
"Look for me, find a kid in a military uniform. ”
Evan looked at one of the old men who painted the portrait and said, "Draw a portrait according to my request, and make copies to each member of the organization tomorrow, I will get the news of this child within a day, and now we will go our separate ways." ”
No one answered, no one made a sound, and everyone spontaneously dispersed.
A smile tugged at the corner of Aivan's mouth, in the territory where he has been operating for many years, not to mention a big living person, even if he wants to find a mouse, he can pick it out for you in a day, the powerful intelligence network of the United Kingdom is all over all levels of society.

When the moon crawls out of the clouds again.
After a few hours of restful sleep, Vega also woke up from his coma.
"Where is this?"
Vega felt that the arrows had been removed, the wounds were bandaged, and he lay on a comfortable wooden bed, a room of about 15 square meters.
"Not at all. ”
Vega remembers that before he fell unconscious, he subconsciously chose a path to escape, and finally entered a dilapidated church, which was the place where he lived for a while last year, so the memory was quite clear, but now he appeared here.
"Map!"
Vega lifted the quilt and touched his chest, and found that the map was no longer there, and he was no longer wearing a blood-stained military uniform, but a large civilian linen shirt, and if it was not the familiar face that appeared in the mirror, he thought he had crossed again.
"Was this rescued or captured?"
Vega quickly glanced around, and found that although the crosssword and military uniform were gone, the dagger that Dani had given him was still on the bedside table, and he pulled it in his hand, and the dagger was hidden in his sleeve, and slowly moved towards the door with the pain in his body.
Creak.
The door was opened, but not by Vega.
"Hands up. ”
The sharp dagger was already attached to the comer's neck, and it only took a single stab to kill him.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited. ”
The big boy who came in quickly raised his hands and said: "Brother Vega, I am a friend of Leah, she found you in the church, and asked me to save you back, we will not hurt you, you put down the dagger first, there is something to say." ”
"How do you know my name is Vega, my map?" Even if the big boy dressed as about 17 years old was a civilian, he didn't feel any magic on his body, but Vega didn't dare to be careless at all.
Eat a trench, grow a wisdom.
A few hours ago, he had suffered the loss of ordinary people, and he almost lost his life, and he would no longer be conceited.
"Leah told me, I don't know anything else. ”
The older boy became more and more nervous, and at the same time there was a sense of grievance, he was actually frightened by an eleven-year-old child who was 6 years younger than himself.
"Who is Leah?" asked Vega with a cold face.
The older boy said nervously, "Leah is an employee of my bakery, a sixteen-year-old girl. ”
Vega frowned and pondered for a while, not fully believing his words: "Take me to see Leah in your mouth, don't play any tricks." ”
Vega put down the dagger around the opponent's neck, and at the same time cheered up, although he was suspected of being too cautious in the face of an ordinary civilian, but he didn't want to suffer a second loss.
The older boy leads the way in front, and Vega follows behind.
"Go slow. ”
After walking less than 20 meters, Vega's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and a little blood oozed from the wound again.
The older boy pursed his lips, apparently noticing that Vega's wound had reopened, but for revenge, he didn't slow down, but walked forward faster: "It's just ahead, let's hurry." ”
It's a yard.
The moonlight illuminates the whole courtyard, and a plainly dressed girl is standing under the stars and looking up at the starry sky after drying her freshly washed military uniform, with a slightly sad expression like an angel descending to earth, which looks sacred and inviolable.
This is Leah?
When the girl noticed the movement and turned her face, Vega recognized who the girl was.
Last winter, the girl who depended on him for his life.
It was also the kind girl who gave him the only half of the black bread and saved his life.
Even if even her name, appearance, and memory have been blurred by time, as long as they meet again, he can still recognize her at the first time.
"I remember, her name is indeed Leah. ”
Vega said softly, looking at the girl who was slowly walking towards him, he was a little at a loss.
The eyes are facing each other.
Vega's face was a little embarrassed, after all, it was him who didn't say goodbye at the beginning: "Leah, that ......"
"Uh-huh—"
Before he could finish speaking, Vega was held in Leah's arms, and due to the difference in height and age, Vega's entire face was buried in Leah's full chest and she couldn't speak, only making a mumping voice and struggling incessantly.
"It's been 10 months, where have you gone. ”
Leah said with tears in her eyes, "Do you know how worried I was about you, I thought, I thought you were ...... Woowoo woo ......"
Vega stopped struggling.
He remembered last winter, although they had only been together for more than two months, but the two helpless people had established a close sister-brother relationship, relying on this warm bond, even in the cold winter, Vega could feel a trace of warmth.
It is no exaggeration to say that Vega who crossed over was redeemed by Leah in soul.
Vega treats Leah as her sister.
In the same way, Vega also vaguely felt that Leah regarded him as a spiritual sustenance like family.
It is precisely with this kind of spiritual sustenance that even if Vega leaves without saying goodbye in the end, the two of them are still able to rely on this spiritual sustenance to survive that cold winter.
The reason why you must live.
Just for a better meeting next time.
