Translator: 549690339
It was already eight or nine o ‘clock at night when they left the orphanage.
In satellite town, except for the places where geckoes often went to, it was already very quiet at eight or nine o ‘clock.
It was quiet in the streets, with only the light of the street lamps illuminating the darkness.
Walking on such a Street, one could almost hear their own breathing. It was as if he was the only one left in the world. Occasionally, in the streets, there would be a rat running by at an extremely fast speed, or a homeless man hiding in a cardboard box, staring at people.
Lu Xin walked slowly with his hands in his pockets.
It was a very fulfilling night. He could see that teacher Lu was in a good mood. The group of silly children were also happy when they saw that their teacher was in a good mood. Of course, the more important reason for their happiness was that they finally had dumplings today. They also received so many biscuits and candies from Lu Xin. It was like the new year.
Lu Xin put on an apron and started making dumplings with the children. As he watched them sing and dance, he felt .
It was so embarrassing!
He didn’t think that the songs that were out of tune for hundreds of meters and the clumsy duck-like dance were nice at all.
He also didn’t think that it was fun for an Eagle to eat a chick.
Unfortunately, he could only sit among a group of naughty children, clapping mechanically and showing a stiff smile.
The most pleasant time of the night was sitting on the steps outside the door with the old security guard. They had a plate of peanuts and a plate of cold dumplings and drank his precious but spicy Lao Bai gan.
However, it was a good night.
Lu Xin didn’t like the children’s singing and dancing, but he wanted them to be well-fed and happy.
Moreover, teacher Lu’s smile that came from the bottom of her heart was really beautiful.
Lu Xin strolled slowly through the streets as he reminisced about the night’s events. The streetlights cast many shadows on him.
Immersed in his thoughts, he didn’t seem to notice that when he passed by the door of a shop that was still open, there was an extremely thin man with a big beard and a pair of black glasses sitting under the patched parasol in front of the shop. He sat on a plastic chair with his legs crossed, drinking coke with a straw in his mouth and smiling at himself.
He didn’t notice that when he passed by a street corner, in front of a painted wall, there was still the same man with a cigarette in his mouth and two in his pocket. He leaned against the wall in a relaxed posture and smiled at him.
When he was about to reach the nearest subway station, the man sat in front of the wonton stall at the entrance of the subway.
He smiled at Lu Xin as he waited for his boss to serve him the wonton.
Lu Xin suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned to look at the man. His eyes seemed to be out of focus.
The man met Lu Xin’s gaze and revealed a happy smile.
Lu Xin looked at him quietly, while the man smiled affectionately.
Lu Xin looked at him quietly. The man was smiling happily.
Lu Xin looked at him quietly, and the man’s smile froze.
Lu Xin then pulled out his gun from his bag and pointed it at the man.
The man was slightly shocked to be pointed at by a gun.
However, he wasn’t afraid at all. Instead, a smile appeared on his face again, as if he wasn’t worried about Lu Xin shooting at him at all.
Then, Lu Xin suddenly pulled the trigger.
In this quiet night, the sound of the gunshot was ear-piercing, loud, and frightening.
A few customers at the blunt stall were shocked by the sudden gunshot and fell to the ground. The owner of the snack stall screamed and almost fell. However, to his surprise, the man’s body suddenly tilted strangely at such a close distance. He supported himself with one hand on the ground and this sudden movement allowed him to Dodge the bullet.
“You …. He seemed. little angry.
Lu Xin didn’t answer and continued to fire at the man.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The man’s body suddenly became twisted. He supported himself with one hand on the ground, but his whole body suddenly bounced up. He stepped on the aluminum car of the wonton stall, and his whole body bounced out. The wonton stall’s car was kicked far away by him.
Out of the three bullets, only one grazed his arm, but it was obviously not a serious injury.
“Are you crazy?
While he was still in mid-air, he looked at Lu Xin with a look of surprise and anger. He cursed and fled into the distance.
Lu Xin, on the other hand, gritted his teeth and gave chase.
At this moment, he strode forward with the gun still in his hand, ready to shoot him when he had the chance. However, the man was surprisingly agile. After he jumped out, he pressed and bounced on the wall next to him with his feet and hands, and then threw himself further forward. When his body began to fall, he opened his hands outward. There was nothing in his hands, but his body bounced up.
It was as if he had stretched out his hand and grabbed two invisible threads.
This made it so that he didn’t need to worry at all. His body rose and fell, as if he was flying in the air.
In comparison, Lu Xin, who was running on his two legs, was naturally slower than him.
In the blink of an eye, he had put quite a distance between him and Lu Xin. When he turned around to look, he was surprised.
He didn’t expect Lu Xin to be so slow. He was surprised, but he also subconsciously revealed a mocking smile.
This smile made Lu Xin even angrier, and he chased after her even faster.
Even if his lungs were about to explode from running, he still wanted to catch up with this person.
As he ran, he soon reached the end of the road. In front of him was a building pit. The road had suddenly broken off here. At the end of the road, there was a guardrail, and below it was a dark danger. Further away, under the illumination of the distant lights, the steel bars and the brick walls that were as broken as teeth looked a little hideous. If he followed the path, he might find a deep pit or an upside-down sharp steel bar.
The man easily reached the end of the chasm. He leaped up three to four meters and reached out with one hand as if he was grabbing an invisible thread. Then, he used the force to swing and pounced on a section of the broken wall of the dilapidated building.
His entire figure seemed to be about to disappear into the darkness.
At this moment, he turned around and looked at Lu Xin, as if he was thinking, “He wouldn’t chase after her anymore, right?
However, he did not expect Lu Xin to jump over without hesitation when he reached the end of the road. However, Lu Xin’s body was as clumsy as an ordinary person’s. How could he have charged over like him? jumping into the building pit was simply courting death …
“Younger sister …”
Lu Xin’s heart was already screaming as he jumped down.
Just as Lu Xin was chasing after the person, a small black shadow was approaching him from the roof and floor behind him. She was extremely fast and quickly closed the distance between them. Just as Lu Xin jumped off the broken bridge, she also pounced on him.
He spread his arms and hugged the sinking Lu Xin as he chuckled, “”l’ve caught you .
It was also at this moment that Lu Xin’s body suddenly became more agile, and he stomped down with his foot.
In the darkness below, there was a sharp section of a steel pipe. If one stepped on it with force, one’s foot would probably be pierced.
However, Lu Xin was completely unaffected by the cut. Instead, he took the opportunity to leap into the air.
Under the red Moon, his figure became like a ghost..
