This thought flashed through Luluxiu's mind because he knew that he had no chance of escaping, let alone calling for help. He was also aware of the cruelty of the imperial army. If he called for help in this situation, he might even be implicated. Besides, he didn't think that ordinary imperial soldiers were a match for Xiao Ran, so even if he called for help, it might not be useful. It might even anger Xiao Ran.
He wasn't willing to hand his younger sister over to Xiao Ran. No matter how he looked at it, this was an extremely normal thing. Handing his younger sister over to two unknown people was simply an idiot. However, from Xiao Ran's words, he learned that his younger sister's illness was actually man-made and not an accident. Yes, to be more precise, it wasn't an illness at all. Instead, it was a special force that turned her into this state.
Luluxiu had a lot of doubts in his heart because of Xiao Ran's words. What kind of special force was it that could make one blind and lose one's legs? Why would someone use such a force on his younger sister, turning the innocent and adorable girl into this state?
But not long after these thoughts appeared in his mind, he heard Xiao Ran's voice again. "Zhao, bring the person outside here."
"There's someone outside?" Luluxiu immediately turned around and looked at the side door of the truck. A soldier in an imperial army uniform stood not far away. A figure flitted past him and quickly pounced on the soldier. In fact, the distance between the two wasn't close. There were at least tens of meters between them, but the figure that flew out of the truck reached the soldier in a very short time.
With Luluxiu's current vision and reaction speed, he only saw the figure that pounced on the soldier swaying a little. The soldier clutched his stomach and knelt on the ground. Then, the girl named Zhao grabbed him by the collar and quickly returned to the truck.
Luluxiu's throat squirmed unconsciously. Not long ago, he was thinking of keeping the girl named Zhao by Xiao Ran's side as a balance and insurance for both sides. But before he could say anything, Xiao Ran, the fake Luluxiu, directly rejected him. But now, Luluxiu suddenly felt that 'Luluxiu's' rejection didn't seem to be a bad thing.
This girl looked like an ordinary girl, weak and intellectual. But he didn't expect her to be so agile and terrifying. In just an instant, she used incredible speed and skills to deal with an imperial soldier who should have received strict training. In Luluxiu's opinion, this girl was too terrifying and dangerous. Keeping such a person by his side wasn't a threat at all. Instead, it was tantamount to putting himself in a dangerous situation. But it wasn't without benefits. At least, he could get a person with terrifying skills to protect him for free.
"You should know this person." Xiao Ran walked to the imperial soldier who was brought back to the truck by Ryukino and thrown on the ground. He took off the soldier's helmet and threw it on the ground. "His name is Vermillion Bird, right?"
Vermillion Bird, full name Pivotal Vermillion Bird, was Luluxiu's good friend. He was also the son of the last prime minister of District 11. Now, after the Holy Britalia Empire occupied District 11, he became an ordinary soldier of the empire. Later on, he became an important member of the rebel Luluxiu's plot. He piloted a body called Lancelot and displayed extraordinary motor nerves and physical strength, as well as a special ability to control the body.
Luluxiu looked at the figure who was lying on the ground and gritting his teeth, unwilling to make a sound. After clearly seeing the face of the person who had been taken off the helmet, he was stunned again. But then, he immediately rushed to the person and half-knelt on the ground to support the young imperial soldier who had suffered a heavy blow.
"Luluxiu … Why are you here? It's dangerous here. Hurry up and leave! " Vermillion Bird saw the person who suddenly supported him. Although his face was a little distorted due to the pain, the change in his expression after seeing Luluxiu was quite interesting. Confusion, horror, worry, anxiety, all kinds of expressions appeared one after another as if he was singing an opera.
Xiao Ran actually had a good impression of this kid named Vermillion Bird. This was a person who was definitely more trustworthy than Luluxiu. He was a person who could completely entrust his back to him. Perseverance, courage, gentleness, and kindness. These words were not wrong to use on Pivotal Vermillion Bird.
There was another scene that left a deep impression on Xiao Ran. If he didn't appear here, he would be in this truck. In a short period of time, Pivotal Vermillion Bird had sacrificed himself twice to help Luluxiu. The first time was when the device containing the poisonous gas was activated. He pounced on Luluxiu and covered Luluxiu's face with his gas mask. The second time was when he refused the order of the Imperial Freikorps to kill Luluxiu. In the end, it was regarded as a rebellion against the order and he was shot.
But in the end, he survived because what was stored in the poisonous gas device wasn't poisonous gas, but a person. The shot didn't hit his vital parts and he was saved by others in the end. But no matter what the result was, Pivotal Vermillion Bird was indeed a little guy who could easily attract others' favor. Xiao Ran also had a good impression of this person who would occupy a lot of scenes in the future plot.
"Vermillion Bird …" Luluxiu still couldn't react. He seemed to have received too many shocks in just a short while. He was suddenly 'kidnapped' by Xiao Ran, forced to cooperate, and forced to hand over his sister. Then, he saw his best friend here, and his best friend had joined the Empire that he hated.
However, Vermillion Bird's concerned and anxious expression also softened Luluxiu's heart. He supported Vermillion Bird and shook his head gently. "It's okay. But why did you join the Imperial Army?"
"Don't worry about it." Vermillion Bird endured the pain in his stomach and stood up. Under the watchful eyes of Xiao Ran and Zhui, he shielded Luluxiu behind him. "I'll help you stop them. Hurry up and leave."
"It's okay. They won't hurt us." Luluxiu, who was standing behind Vermillion Bird, shook his head. He pulled Vermillion Bird behind him and faced Xiao Ran again. "Tell me, what do you want me to do now?"
