When the kid opened his eyes, he saw a face hanging upside down from the top of his head, looking straight at him, leaning against a tree and smoking a cigarette.
Then, he realized that the one hanging upside down was not the other party, but himself.
He was hanging upside down from a tree, with no one to rely on.
Subconsciously, he struggled for a moment, but to no avail. Subconsciously, he disappeared again. Then, he saw the rope wriggling, trying to climb up and escape.
Click, there was a soft sound.
He turned his head stiffly and saw the smiling big brother and the gun in his hand.
The black muzzle was pointed at him.
"Name?" Huai Shi asked kindly.
Without waiting for an answer, he pulled the trigger. The loud sound proved the power of the shot.
Well, he picked it up in the toolbox in the car.
It seemed that Ali was really from the privileged class.
After sucking in a breath of cold air, the kid finally learned to be obedient.
"Name?" Huai Shi spoke again, using Latin, Dongxia language, and choppy Javanese to ask, "Age? Occupation? What do you do? "
"… Sai, Saiar!" The child swallowed his saliva and his silhouette appeared in the air. He raised his hands in surrender and replied in Javanese, "Saiyar Ramadan, I'm ten years old. Uncle, please spare my life. I-I just saw you asking about Madura's location and wanted to secretly take your car there!"
Huai Shi frowned unhappily.
It was not because the kid wanted to secretly take his car, but because … he made him sound old!
"You have to call me handsome big brother, understand?" Huai Shi put the muzzle closer. The kid nodded like he was pounding garlic. His face was red because he was hanging upside down.
So, Huai Shi pulled the trigger.
He broke the rope.
The kid fell from the air. Huai Shi grabbed him by the collar and threw him next to the tree stump.
Huai Shi didn't untie the rope on his feet. He found a clean rock and sat down. He looked at the panicked kid and asked, "Invisibility, what's going on?"
The child's eyes wandered. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Huai Shi's gentle smile. "Do you know? I, your big brother, really like to bully little kids to death … especially those who don't pay for the ride … "
Sayar swallowed his saliva dryly.
"I don't know either. Suddenly, one day, I learned it … Others couldn't see me, as if I didn't exist …"
Huai Shi nodded, understanding the situation.
A wild Sublimator brat.
Ten years old?
Wasn't it too small?
"Where are your parents?"
"They … They are waiting for me in Madura … They are all very famous experts … They are all very powerful, and they have nineteen subordinates. Each of them has a gun, a lot of guns … They are all … all very powerful!"
"…"
Huai Shi sat on a rock with his legs crossed, watching him rack his brains to come up with a lie.
Blow, continue to blow.
Under his scrutiny, the child's expression gradually became awkward, and he couldn't continue speaking.
"Alright, don't be afraid." Huai Shi pushed the pistol out of the magazine, one by one in front of the child, and threw them on the ground. Then, he put the pistol back into his pocket.
He leaned forward and looked at the child's face.
"I won't kill you, and I won't hurt you. As the price for secretly riding on my ride, you have to answer my questions honestly. Then, I can send you back to your parents."
"…" Sayar was silent and turned his head away awkwardly.
After a long time, he said, "They don't want me anymore. I ran out alone. My mother married someone else, and my father has a new son. Even if you send me back, I will run out again."
"Where is your home?"
"I don't know. I ran out for a long time, more than half a year. I have long forgotten where I went. I don't even know where this is."
"…"
Huai Shi was silent for a long time. He scratched his head and said, "For so long, you lived by being invisible?"
Sayar nodded.
"Very good, Sayar. Your honesty has earned you fair treatment."
Huai Shi took a deep breath. Then, he looked into Sayar's eyes with a serious expression. His eyes turned cold and he said, "Tell me, for so long, did you use your ability to hurt others?"
"… … I … … I did not!"
Sayar's face turned pale as he was stared at by the pair of emotionless eyes. He shook his head frantically and said, "I, I just secretly took something that I needed. There was nothing I could do. I have no money … … I swear, I only took a little."
"How does it feel to kill someone?" Huai Shi asked indifferently.
"I did not kill anyone!" Sayar screamed out in panic. "I did not!"
"Then, what about the damage?" Huai Shi asked. "Don't you think this ability is very convenient? Even if you are holding a knife, no one will be able to notice it. Even if you kill someone, no one will know that you are wrong … … you can even do whatever you want to those beautiful little girls, isn't that right? "
The mountain ghost's malice suppressed his consciousness, digging out the truth and lies inch by inch.
"I did not, I really did not."
Sayar struggled with all his might. He was so scared that tears flowed out of his eyes. He sobbed and shouted, "I swear, sir, I swear, I only took a little something, a little bit of money … … I just, I just hope that no one will see me. That was all I wanted. As long as you don't hit me, I never wanted to hurt anyone!"
"… … …"
Huai Shi was silent. Then, he suddenly reached out with his hand.
He pulled up Sayar's sleeves, pulled open his collar and pulled down his shirt and trousers. Then, he checked every inch of Sayar's skin.
There were burn marks from cigarette butts, scars from blisters, blade marks and abnormalities in the bones of his right hand – it had been broken before but was not properly reconnected.
He finally understood why Sayar wanted to run away.
How could he obtain such a soul?
After a long time, he silently put on Sayar's clothes. Then, he raised his hand and untied the rope.
Sayar continued to cry. He looked at Chen Xiaolian with fear and shrank back.
"All right, don't cry."
Huai Shi sighed and raised his hand to ruffle Sayar's hair. "Let's go. I'll take you to eat. Then, I'll find you a place where you can be raised."
"I … … I don't want to go to an orphanage." Sayar's face turned pale with fright. He shook his head with all his might. "I … … I've been there before. It's like hell. Sir, I beg you."
"… … I won't send you to an orphanage."
Huai Shi shook his head. How could he not know what an orphanage was like? Not to mention, it was in a chaotic place like Indonesia.
The Astronomy Association had a special organization for raising ascendants. Everything was to ensure that ascendants could properly return to society and not cause any trouble due to their own abilities.
Raising a child didn't cost much. With less surveillance cameras and cameras, they would have all the money they needed.
When they reached Madura, he would contact the Astronomy Association and pick up Sayar.
Before that, he had to ensure that Sayar hadn't completely fallen. Even if he passed Huai Shi's test, he wouldn't be able to pass the Astronomy Association's review.
Those bastards who originally worked in the building didn't know the meaning of mercy. They would definitely directly read his mind and search his memory.
Fortunately, Sayar didn't completely lose his bottom line because of his wandering.
Otherwise, even if Huai Shi didn't kill him, he would immediately turn around and send him to the border prison in Jakarta.
"Let's go. We'll go eat first."
Huai Shi smiled at him. He didn't feel ashamed to use the 'soul link' to make his little brother feel that what he said made sense.
Benefiting from his own appearance and influence, the frightened Sayar gradually calmed down. He had some trust in this gentle big brother.
But soon, when they walked out of the forest, they saw the off-road vehicle driving away on the road.
It was originally parked by the side of the road … …
"Ah, my car … …"
Huai Shi raised his hand and slapped the back of his head. He couldn't believe it. "It was stolen?!"
How long had it been?
In the time it took to go to the toilet, it was stolen?
Along with Huai Shi's backpack, wallet, and a lot of equipment … …
"It was stolen." Sayar obviously accepted the reality faster than Huai Shi. He looked at Huai Shi with sympathy. "Don't be sad. It happens all the time."
Unexpectedly, Huai Shi didn't fly into a rage.
He didn't even chase after them.
Instead, he stood there calmly with a slightly bitter expression. He didn't look angry that his car was stolen. Instead, he seemed to be thinking about where to find food next.
"You're not worried?" Sayar couldn't believe it.
"Why should I be worried?" Huai Shi asked back.
This was the Modern Realm.
This was the central area of the Modern Realm.
So what if it was a little messy? If it was in Dongxia, he might argue with the Social Security Bureau. But in Indonesia … … Hehe, you dare to steal from the Astronomy Association? Are you tired of living?
Moreover, do you think it's so easy to take my things?
Huai Shi didn't know how much sweat and how many viruses were left on it. Once Huai Shi released the control, it would immediately become a moving source of pollution.
He was looking for death.
"Don't worry. Let's go find some food nearby first."
Huai Shi shook his head calmly. He reached out and held Sayar's hand. "Let's go. What do you want to eat? It's my treat. I still have 200 USD. It's enough for a good meal. "
.
.
Fortunately, they were already in the vicinity of Madura. It was a city after all. It wasn't difficult to find some food.
Half an hour later, Huai Shi and Sayar were sitting in the Colonel's Chicken Nuggets chain store. They were enjoying the air conditioning, eating the chicken bun, and drinking happy drinks.
Since they were already here, Huai Shi planned to find the philosopher mentioned by Tilal first. After that, he would call the Jakarta branch and ask them to check where the car went.
However, when Huai Shi called the philosopher, no one answered.
He called a few times, but they were all busy.
He put down the phone in confusion and glanced at Selal who was wolfing down the food. He couldn't help but raise his hand and hit the back of his head.
"Eat slowly. I'll give it all to you, okay? You'll definitely have diarrhea if you eat like this! "
Sayar answered vaguely, his face glistening with the oil of fried chicken. He raised his head to look at Huai Shi, then lowered his head and continued to eat. Huai Shi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Okay, I'll have to spend money to buy you stomach medicine later …
Just when he was feeling helpless, the phone rang again.
"I'm sorry. I was in class just now and didn't pick up the phone."
A low voice came from the other end of the phone. The Latin tone was exquisite and standard. "Is this Mr. Huai Shi from the Astronomy Society?"
"Ah, yes, that's right." Huai Shi nodded. "You know me?"
"Tilal mentioned you when he called me yesterday. He also told me about your doubts. I'm happy to share some of my shallow opinions with you. "
"Let me see … My next class is about 90 minutes later. Maybe we can talk before that." The philosopher said, "If it's convenient, can you come to the city? I'm a bit busy at school. I can't leave. "
"Of course, no problem."
Huai Shi nodded happily. "I'll be there soon."
After a polite goodbye, the phone hung up.
Huai Shi had begun to look forward to the philosopher's answer.
