Chapter 57: Regaining one's original intention

"Damn. "Fun" www.biquge.info Albert cursed, and it seemed that he couldn't get anything out of Jon's mother's mouth. He pondered for a moment and walked over to the strong man with the broken leg. "You know what's going on, right?" he grabbed the strong man's hand.

"No... I don't know. The strong man shook his head.

Albert shrugged, smiled, and then with a force, a series of cracking sounds came from the strong man's hand.

"Ahh

The strong man let out a pig-killing howl as he raised his arm and looked at his hand like a chicken's claw.

Albert didn't ask any further, and took the strong man's other hand.

"I say!" cried the strong man.

"I never listen to. ”

Albert's voice fell, and there was another series of shattering sounds, and the strong man lay on the ground, crying silently.

"I'm a member of the LTTE!" the strong man roared hoarsely as he felt his neck be choked. "The woman's son was imprisoned in the LTTE dungeon. He had no doubt that half a second slower would break his neck.

"The Tigers?" Albert frowned. "Your boss is the Tiger King?" he suddenly thought that in addition to the Crouching Tiger and the dead Second Tiger, there was also a Tiger.

"That's right. The strong man nodded repeatedly. "Do you know the Boss?" he saw a glimmer of hope, could it be that this teenager was a friend of the Boss?

"Where's the Tiger King?"

Albert did not answer the strong man's question, but the strong man wishfully regarded Albert as his own.

"Of course, the boss is at the Tiger Head Peak headquarters. He told Albert.

"He's not coming here?" Albert continued.

"The Boss comes every four weeks to deploy. The strong man said truthfully: "If you have something to do with the boss, you have to wait for a week." ”

"I'll look for him, but not now. Albert said with a smirk. I don't know what the relationship between the Tiger King and the Black Tiger King and the Evil Tiger King is. At first, he was too worried about the revenge of the Crouching Tiger King, and he actually forgot about this tiger. And the Black Tiger King didn't talk about it at the time, it is estimated that their relationship is very good, so the Black Tiger King will deliberately hide it. Albert thought to himself, perhaps, the Black Tiger King was waiting for the Tiger King to avenge him. Thinking of this, Albert secretly smiled bitterly, he really had a relationship with these tigers, and he could meet them anywhere.

Also, Albert suddenly thought that Joanna was kidnapped here, and Crouching Tiger and Sakura have some origins, so could the Tiger King also participate in the kidnapping?

"Tell me where the LTTE is. Albert didn't want to stir up trouble and disturb his peaceful life. But if things turn out the way he thinks, it's time to have a fight with the tiger.

"Dongcheng District, 'Brandy Beauty' hotel. The strong man told Albert.

"When the Tiger King is not there, who is in charge of the affairs of the Tigers. Albert continued to ask.

"The nephew of the Tiger King, the Ghost Tiger. The strong man replied. "Man, let me go. He squeezed out an ugly smile.

"Answer my last question. The corners of Albert's mouth went up. "Where's the Tigers' dungeon?" he looked at the strong man with a smirk.

"Underground warehouse, 82 Third Avenue. When the strong man saw Albert's smile, his tense nerves relaxed a lot.

"Thank you for your candor. Albert's smile remained. "I'll let you die without pain. As the words fell, he twisted the strong man's neck. After helping the strong man close his angry eyes, Albert stood up and walked over to the other ten strong men, and repeated the trick, breaking their necks as well.

Albert took a deep breath and walked over to Jon's mother.

"I'll rescue Jon and take you away. He told her.

Jon's mother suddenly stopped crying, as if she had pressed the mute button. "Really?" she said, stunned.

"Of course, I promised Jon. Albert nodded firmly, "I'll put you in a safe place, and tonight, you can be reunited." ”

"I'm ......" Jon's mother looked up at Albert's serious expression and didn't continue. After a few moments, her eyes regained a hint of brightness, but their sockets were even redder. "Thank you. She sniffled, her voice choked.

Late at night.

Albert followed the address told by the strong man to the underground warehouse at 82 Third Avenue.

There was a faint glow of fire and a faint sound of words coming from the large closed iron door, and Albert listened attentively, judging by the sound, and the people inside had drunk a lot of wine.

Albert hesitated and quietly retreated, not intending to attack. He didn't know what was going on inside, and it would be worth more if Jon was injured in the melee. He was even more unsure that what the strong man said was true or false, and if he killed a good person by mistake, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Of course, Albert didn't really leave, he wandered around the warehouse, looking for a passage to sneak into the warehouse.

However, this is not an easy task.

Since it is a warehouse, it means that the sealing must be very good. Albert has the ability to destroy walls, but he doesn't know if there will be anyone behind them. Just when Albert was at a loss, he suddenly saw the manhole cover under his feet, which made his eyes light up and he started to think about the sewer. Albert removed the manhole cover, and a disgusting stench came over him. He covered his mouth and nose, looked at the shiny leather armor on his body, gritted his teeth fiercely, and had to endure it in order to infiltrate the plan. Albert tore off the corner of his shirt inside his breastplate, tied it around his nose and mouth, and burrowed into the sewers.

In the slippery sewers, black water flows through a nearby drain, carrying a billowing stench. Although Albert covered his mouth and nose, his stomach churned. The thing he regrets most now is that he shouldn't have eaten dinner.

A moment later, but as if a long time had passed, Albert made his way to the top of Warehouse 82 with his impression.

Albert climbed up the mossy, slippery wall, turning his right hand into a dragon's claw to capitalize on his strength, creating many points of focus along the way.

At a height of only five meters, Albert climbed for a full quarter of an hour.

When he reached the top, he summoned flames and wrapped them around the dragon's claws. With the scorching heat of the flames, the sharp dragon claws plunged deep into the concrete. Then, with a claw of the dragon, he dug down a large piece of concrete like a shovel. Half an hour later, Albert dug a large hole half a meter in diameter.

He poked his head out and looked around, the huge basement was pitch black and empty, with hundreds of wooden boxes lined up on either side of the walls. After making sure that there was no guard, he got out of the hole and went to the basement.

Could it be that the news given by the strong man was wrong? Albert thought to himself. It seems that the sewers are considered to be drilled in vain, and this is obviously an ordinary warehouse, and it is not even touched by the edge of the dungeon.

At this moment, a box beside Albert suddenly moved.

Albert was stunned and looked through the vents into the box. With night vision, he could clearly see a person huddled in the box.

It turned out that everyone was hiding in the box, and Albert suddenly realized, but then he was worried again. There were hundreds of chests here, apparently also imprisoned civilians, would he only save Jon, or would he save them all? Albert hesitated, he wanted to help these people, but he didn't know how to take so many people and where to take them. Forget it, rescue Jon first, Albert has made a decision. He hadn't figured out how to deal with the Tigers yet, and even if he rescued them temporarily, they would be caught again and punished one more time.

Moments later, Albert found the chest where Jon was imprisoned.

The little boy curled up in the box, eyes closed, as if he were sleeping.

Albert saw that Jon had many whip marks on his body, and he must have suffered a lot lately. The little boy had tears on his eyelashes, and he was dreaming about something, as if he was calling 'Mommy'.

"You'll see you soon. Albert muttered, pulling the rope off the crate and lifting the lid. Then, he knocked the sleeping Jon unconscious and carried it on his shoulder. Looking at the other hundred or so wooden crates, Albert muttered "I'll be back" and left the basement and headed back into the sewers.

In the wee hours of the morning, inside the hotel.

Looking at the mother and son embracing each other, Albert wisely chose to avoid it.

Although he had to take Jon's mother and son out of town at night, so as not to be stopped by the Tigers. But Albert knew that the hard-working mother and son needed a little time to comfort each other.

Standing on the empty street and looking up at the starry sky, Albert suddenly felt a little lost and helpless. I don't know how many children like Jon are suffering and starving. Albert never considered himself a good person. To put it bluntly, he is an executioner who kills people without blinking. But Albert was convinced that he still had a conscience and humanity and could not turn a blind eye to his suffering children, let alone ignore injustices.

But what has he done lately? Albert asked himself, was it a reason or an excuse to take care of Edith? He had been running away, even a little insensitive, and had gradually become the person he hated the most.

Albert recalls his childhood when his adoptive father was beaten to protect him, and passers-by watched coldly until his adoptive father's leg was broken, and no one came to his aid.

From then on, Albert was determined that after becoming a magician, he must uphold justice and eliminate violence.

I don't know when his blood gradually went out.

He began to covet comfort, became more and more selfish, and even ran away, deceiving himself that the world was good.

Is he still him?" Albert thought weakly as he looked at his hands. In recent years, almost all the troops of the two empires have been put on the front line of the war, and the private soldiers of various families are no exception, which has led to rampant banditry and chaos. He is now a magician, and he has great strength, but he has not fulfilled his childhood promise.

Little Edith was right, he wasn't happy at all, and he had lost himself.

Thankfully, now that he's awake, hopefully it's not too late.

"I'm sorry, father, I let you down. Albert stared at the starry sky, one of which shimmered as if to communicate with him.

Albert knew that it was his adoptive father who guided him back on the right path, as well as the kind Daddy Murel.
