“Okay. Belle, you're the one to lean on now. I didn't stab my head to death in front of you either. We are not like-minded, can't work together, you can handle it yourself!"
After saying that, Alice took the knife and turned around. This place she has suffered enough already, all day long living with a bunch of this brainless Holy Father and Mother, going out to find things to bring back are milk powder and diapers. With such a group of people, what kind of money can there be in the future? Alice has long wanted to pack up and go! Without thinking of leaving, she wouldn't openly show her true disdain for these people today either.
In her heart, Alice seemed to have seen Belle and Lor's fierce later quarrel and that tragically boring future. She also wasn't eager to get close to Lor's group anymore. Anyway, just after Lor finds out she's been cheated on, Alice will have a chance to get closer to him and his team.
Alice walked out in a row, people on the street stood watching. Belle didn't open her mouth to hold her back, neither did the others, what good is there to hold back? People who treat their teammates with life and death, can also "prevent what hasn't happened" saying that killing is killing, not considering them as friends is their luck!
The whole group was only followed by Wang Jun. Seeing that Alice had entered the mansion, he also followed inside. Alice had already started to pack her clothes, seeing Wang Jun entering her room, she immediately instructed:
"I'm leaving. Wang Jun, you stay here, take care of the Lor people in my place. Wait for Lor and Belle to have a heated argument, then immediately notify me."
"Alice..."
Wang Jun looked at Alice a little helplessly, not knowing what to say. In fact, before he entered the door, he didn't think much about whether he was going or staying. Just wanted to come and advise Alice, advise her to let go of her stubborn and unyielding thoughts, and talk to Belle properly. Belle isn't the kind of person who doesn't reason.
On the other hand, in the To family, Vuong Quan feels that he is living a very good life. Day by day building houses, drawing drawings, peaceful and comfortable mood. So if Alice wanted to drag him along, he really didn't want to. But if Alice is determined to go, Wang Jun is not convenient to stay here alone.
But without waiting for Vuong Quan to think carefully and then speak, Alice arbitrarily decided to go to live instead of him, do you want him to be an insider?!
Based on Wang Jun's relationship with Alice, how could he stay as an insider? The people at Belle are going to treat you weird, aren't they?
In an instant, Wang Jun felt like a ball thrown back and forth by Alice. Before, she had bent over someone else to go up, never caring about his feelings. At this time, too, she didn't ask Wang Jun if she wanted to stay or go. She left and told him to stay, put him in what situation?
Vuong Quan stood silently in the bedroom, his tall body seemed a little lonely. He watched Alice pack her things into her suitcase, go downstairs to find some things to put in with them, arrange them in the parking lot, and then leave without hesitation.
Wang Jun slowly went downstairs, sat on the main door step, looked up at the red sun that was leaning to the west. The kitchen smoke rose, the people in the villa had already started cooking, and he and the villa behind seemed to fall into a cold, dark black hole, so lonely and shy.
Being held back by Alice, Bruce's situation is also too unusual, Belle is no longer interested in going out for a walk. She planned to stay in the villa for the next few days, waiting for Ly Tieu Vu to calm down and then leave. The job of finding a large truck she assigned to Mr. Bi. Anyway, if she didn't go out, it wouldn't affect that side.
Mr Peter goes out every day, and Belle never asks them to follow her or hand over things for centralized management. In fact, to Belle, they are an independent team, equal individuals. In her mind, Belle doesn't believe in living together because history has proven it to be completely wrong.
Everyone has to try to find things by themselves, manage things by themselves, think of ways to feed themselves. If you don't have enough to eat, don't ask others, you have to think of a way to go out to collect things.
Such is human nature. Gathering in groups and confiscating belongings can only reduce large numbers of casualties, and over time, people will surely have the opinion that why the things I have worked so hard to find are used to feed so many idle people? Why don't they need to go out to eat and drink? Why should I risk my life?
So now in Belle's area, everyone manages their own belongings, including Tam Nguyet and Due Due.
As for Mr. Bi's team, he has adopted nine children and the doctors and nurses, of course, have to go out every day. They have the most people, also many cars, when they come back with a lot of things, they give them to the To family villa inside the fence.
This seems to have become an unwritten rule: Belle gives them clean water and fresh vegetables, and they have leftovers that they don't use up to the To family. This is very fair – nobody relies on anyone. Sometimes in their free time, people also set up a round table in front of the To family's door to organize parties. Life here also has such arbitrary moments.
Wang Jun sat on the stairs, silently watching people go in and out. I don't know when I should face go out to say hello to everyone or pack a bag to find a car, then wait alone in a corner. At that moment, Mr. William put on old glasses and took a drawing to look for Vuong Quan.
"Wang Jun, Wang Jun, can you see for me the curved wall like this?"
The cheerful Mr. William did not seem to notice Wang Jun's embarrassment at the moment. Recently, he wants to build a residential area, fence all the villas of the people on this side so that the people of the Ta family don't occasionally run over here to look.
Vuong Quan was sitting in a daze, intending to tell Mr. William that he had to go, but when he looked at the drawing he gave him, he discovered a miscalculation, couldn't help but pointed:
"This fence has little cement. too. Based on your calculation, to fence a large area, this amount of cement is only enough to build knee high…”
“Oh? Really!?" Mr. William quickly took a fountain pen to his ear and handed it to Vuong Quan, "I'm an architect, I'll fix it for you."
Looking at the fountain pen, Vuong Quan sighed, accepted the pen, placed the drawing on the pillow and began to recalculate the required amount of cement. After a while, Vuong Quan gave the drawing back to Mr. William, and said,
"Uncle, I won't be able to edit the drawing for you in the future..."
"This kid is good." Mr. William was pleased to roll up the drawing, put it in his pocket, and didn't ask Wang Jun what that sentence meant, but said, "Wang Jun, tell me, I'm sure you don't like to hear it… That Alice girl doesn't suit you. "
“Uncle…”
“You two pursue different things, I can see that clearly. Alice is in conflict with my daughter, it's not really possible to say whether Alice is completely wrong or that my daughter is all right. Different views, different ways of doing things. It's only a matter of time before she leaves…”
“I… I don't know how to look at people's faces. To tell the truth, I still love her…”
Wang Jun still had feelings for Alice, but Alice left him alone, looking for the future alone, even though Wang Jun wanted to follow him, he wouldn't let him. Vuong Quan wanted to stay, but was afraid that the To family would be on guard and avoid him, such a life is meaningless, he would rather take the initiative to leave.
He can't leave Alice, nor does he want to conflict with Belle's side, but Alice insists on separating boundaries with Belle, refusing to get along.
How should Vuong Quan choose? He can only choose to go alone, slowly walking down the path of era of decadence.
Mr. William, the silver-headed man, patted Vuong Quan's shoulder, puffed out his stomach, and looked very generous. He advised him, “Love, just love! What young person has never been madly in love? But hey, you and Alice aren't on the same page at all. There are some things that need to be looked at, don't mind the trifles. I still need you here.”
"Thanks, but I know it's time to go."
When Mr. William had not arrived, Wang Jun was still hesitating whether he should go or not. After Mr. William arrived, he made up his mind to leave here, everyone around him had his parents and friends around during the era of decadence, but where are his friends' parents?
“Wow… in times like this, where are you going to go alone?”
“I want to take this opportunity to find my parents.”
He thinks Mr. William is right, perhaps he and Alice do not share the same ideals, the things Alice pursues him with no interest at all, and the life he wants, she thinks that no effort is needed. have been.
This time, Wang Jun did not go to find Alice, not only was he abandoned by Alice once or twice, this time he intended to find his parents alone. Before, he was a child blinded by love, ignoring the love of his parents. After the era of decadence, Wang Jun wanted to take back the responsibility of a son.
“Like that… it's good, it's good too.”
If Vuong Quan already has his goal, Mr. William is not convenient to keep people. One has to look for relatives, that's natural. He can advise Wang Jun to give up on Alice, but he can't stop Wang Jun from looking for relatives.
When the sun turned to the west, it was also the time when Vuong Quan said goodbye to Mr. William for the last time. Then he got up, entered the mansion in the twilight, and began to pack his things.
Mr. William stood outside Vuong Quan's villa for a long time, lowered his head and sighed. He tucked the drawing into his chest and returned to his mansion. At his age, it is difficult to find a suitable person to talk to, but no one will stay with an old man like him, Mr. William feels so lonely!
In the kitchen of the To family, Mrs Huyen and Belle are harvesting peanuts. My mother turned to look at Mr William, who had just entered the courtyard, and whispered to Belle,
"Have you told Lor about that?"
"Eh..." Belle looked at her mother, saw her seriousness, and immediately replied, "Lor… said… she had to go out tomorrow to pick up Lap Ha's adoptive mother. So… I think… wait for him to come back and then say! You also know how dangerous it is outside, now I tell him and unfortunately he is distracted because of that, my grandson will no longer have a father."
“You have to hurry!” My mother threw some peanuts into the bowl, urging: "It's been three months, and the belly is about to show up. What we need to prepare has also begun to do, the responsibility Lor should shoulder, he must shoulder."
"Yes, I know, I know." Belle followed Mrs Huyen, she felt that Mrs Huyen was treating her like a naughty child, but she didn't want to hear her nag so she threw peanuts into the bowl, stood up and ran quickly, while running, she said: "Mom, I'm coming. Let's see how Ly Tieu Vu is, I'll stew the soup for you to eat later!"
“Slow down, be careful not to fall!!! Beware of the belly, beware of the belly!"
Mother To, behind her, raised her neck and looked anxiously at Belle's figure. She clutched her chest, her weak heart frightened by Belle's jumping. She'd rather not know that Belle is pregnant, and then just hate to tie her up and not let this naughty child go anywhere!
"How's the stomach?" Just then Mr. William came in from the yard, opened the kitchen door, looked at his old friend clutching his chest, and asked again: "Do you have a stomachache?"
"Not me, haizzz..."
Mother To stood up, carrying a bowl of shelled peanuts, today she intends to stew Belle a pot of pork leg soup today. with peanuts. She anxiously circled around Mr William, intending to wash the peanuts in the bowl, but instead poured the whole bowl of peanuts into the sink. She groaned in frustration, turned around and bumped into Mr. William standing in the way, she scolded:
"Tell me, do you have any kind men? Not everyone is the good type , haiz my daughter. What should I do now? In my heart, I'm restless, I can't eat well, I can't sleep, what kind of life is this?"
"What happened in the end?"
At first, Mr. William also thought that Mrs Huyen was looking for someone to complain, anyway, he was familiar with it, ten years as one, he also knew it. But today, in Mrs Huyen's lament, new words appeared, so Mr. William curiously asked:
"How is our Belle? What are you worried about?"
"I..."
Mother To opened her mouth, suddenly tears welled up, hugged Mr. William's neck and cried. Outside the kitchen, Belle, having changed her clothes, crept into the living room, holding Lor's two swords and gently opening the door. It seems that her mother couldn't help but want to tell her father about Tieu Ai.
After her father found out how he would react, angry or what? Belle felt a little guilty. Don't look at Mr William normally or laugh, don't worry about anything. That is, he has not yet reached his final limit, if he reaches that limit, he will be angry, serious, making others tremble.
So Belle quietly ran away, she took two swords and slipped through the large door in the wall, stepping on the dim moonlight to prepare to go to Bruce's mansion. But as soon as he was out the door, he was stopped by Lor, he rushed towards her, pressed her against the wall, laughed rudely and said:
"Girl, it's this late, you know I'm guarding here, right?"
"Let go, I'm going to visit Bruce!"
"Don't let go, give me a kiss and then I let go."
Belle pursed her lips and didn't speak. She also seemed to understand a little bit about him, the more he resisted, the more he used oppression, the typical mentality of a scoundrel. It's just that because of his military status, he's a little normal sometimes.
She kept looking at Lor under the moonlight, his eyes were dim as if there were red light, they sparkled like two flames hidden deep in the bottom of his eyes, looking extremely beautiful. Lor slowly brought his eyes closer to hers, until Belle noticed that his hot lips were glued to hers cold. Not as rude as before, but just gently sucked it in, with a hint of unwillingness in his voice:
"Girl, I really want to 'do' you again. Not the right time, really not the right time.”
I have to go early tomorrow morning, this time I have to go through the vast Xiangcheng, I don't know how many days it will take to return. The situation over there is still unclear, Lap Ha's adoptive mother sent him a message, but whether or not his mother sent it, no one knows. Lor honestly couldn't bear to leave Belle. If it weren't for Bruce Lee's need for a follower, he really wanted Belle to go with him.
Belle's heart beat a little faster, she frowned, tilted her head back, and moved her eyes away from her lips, struggling to push Lor away. Lor's lips gently kissed Belle's neck, whispering in her ear, admonishing:
"Papa and Thu Sinh stay with a few others. The days I'm not around, you don't go out. Wait for me to come back and take you out to play. Listen to me, don't make me worry."
The intonation is just like the brother is telling his biological sister, it's dangerous outside, don't leave the house alone. This makes Belle laugh, now she doesn't see Lor causing her any grudges, or maybe because he is Tieu Ai's biological father? She only felt her neck itch and numb, so while avoiding Lor, panting, she said:
"I'm not a child, don't bite me, leave early, leave early, pay attention to safety on the road, beat if you win. If you don't win, run."
"How is it possible, is there anyone in this world that you can't beat?"
Without saying a few words, Lor's tail stood up again, he began to kiss Belle's neck again, he let go of her hands and led her to Bruce's villa, on the road still constantly warned:
"Miss, That Bruce Lee is a bit weird, it's not entirely wrong for Alice to be worried, think about it, if it's really not okay, it's better to take action soon!"
“I have my own calculations.”
As for Bruce's abnormality, of course Belle also knows that many people are worried about her, she is also very worried that she will become a disaster later. In terms of Alice's actions, it's not wrong, but for Alice's departure, Belle and the others have no regrets. Compared to Bruce Lee's situation, Alice is the bigger hidden threat.
A person who can sacrifice her comrades because of the general situation is extremely scary, because today she can sacrifice Bruce, tomorrow she can sacrifice Belle, Tieu Ai, or any other person. which affects the overall situation, moreover, it is a type of "Preventing by accident".
The best person like that is to leave the team as soon as possible, Alice goes by herself to save Belle from having to think of a way to chase. Unfortunately, Alice just left, Vuong Quan did not stay anymore, Belle felt that Vuong Quan was quite pleasing to the eye.
The two of them held hands like two teenagers before the era of decadence, walking slowly under the moon, leisurely walking in front of Bruce Lee's mansion. Now this villa, except for Ly Tieu Vu, everyone has moved out. Tam Nguyet and Due Due moved to the nurse's apartment, Nhi Ho went to the place where Bi's people gathered. And Bruce was tied up, lying on the mattress in the living room.
In the bright lights of the villa, when Belle and Lor entered, they immediately saw Doctor Hong with two nurses Luong Tieu Ky and Ngo Dao Muoi taking blood from Ly Tieu Vu, mother and daughter Tam Nguyet and Due Due sitting near there. Due Due was eating a bowl of noodles, while Tam Nguyet watched Ly Tieu Vu while wiping the noodle juice from the corner of her mouth for Duel.
Seeing Belle come in, Duel raised her head, obediently called "sister", Doctor Hong stood up, flicked the sample tube of Ly Tieu Vu's blood in his hand, tilted his head to look at Belle, raised his eyes, and nodded to explain:
"I I want to take a little blood sample of Bruce Lee Vu to do a virus test, so we can tell if she's going to be a zombie or a mutant."
“Turn zombies? Mutant?"
Belle repeated these two phrases, looking at Doctor Hong with interest. She understood the general idea of Doctor Hong, turning a zombie is to turn into a zombie, and to mutate is to turn into a paranormal. So she nodded, letting Doctor Hong take away the blood sample of Bruce Lee.
Luong Tieu Ky and Ngo Dao Muoi stayed by Ly Tieu Vu's side, they are both nurses, taking care of patients is their responsibility, by the way, helping Doctor Hong monitor Ly Tieu Vu's symptoms. The unusual situations and hourly temperature of Ly Tieu Vu were meticulously recorded by Luong Tieu Ky and Ngo Dao in the table.
Suddenly Belle felt that the nurses and doctors she had brought back were very useful, at least in times like these, they were also very effective.
"How's it going?"
Belle asked Tam Nguyet in the living room, while holding Luong Tieu Ky's chart, looking at Ly Tieu Vu's temperature record, she saw that her temperature was kept at about 37 degrees. The face is red, the body temperature is normal, no fever.
Although she did not have a fever, Tam Nguyet was still extremely worried. Due to finished eating noodles, she picked up the child, walked to Belle, frowned and replied:
"The fever is not feverish, but the face is not normal. The day is sometimes orange, now it's red."
After saying that, Belle saw Luong Tieu Ky combing Ly Tieu Vu's hair with a comb and asked, "Why should I brush her hair?"
"Huh?" Luong Tieu Ky raised her head bewilderedly, she raised the comb in her hand, pointed at the spider webs stuck on the comb teeth and explained: "I don't know where the web is, there are many spider webs on Ly Tieu Vu's head, I comb it. for her."
"Don't move!"
Belle reached out and ran to the side, Lor behind also ran ahead. Tam Nguyet hugged Due Due and stood in place worriedly. Belle ran to Luong Tieu Ky's side, took the comb in her hand and looked carefully. There are indeed a few large white threads on the comb teeth. Looking at Ly Tieu Vu's head again, at a speed visible to the naked eye, her head is gradually forming white silk threads.
"In the end, what happened?"
Tam Nguyet, who had not discovered anything strange, hugged Due Due and ran to ask. Belle shook her head, handed the comb in her hand to Luong Tieu Ky to warn:
"Don't take these threads out, just let it grow to see how long it grows."
"But..." At this time, Luong Tieu Ky was scared and scared by the silk threads on Ly Tieu Vu's head, "Is that okay? There won't be any problems, will there?"
"She's tied up like this, if there's danger there's enough time for everyone to run."
She looked at Ly Tieu Vu tied into a cake, the rope used to bind her was a climbing rope, the certainty can be trusted, Belle comforted Luong Tieu Ky and said,
"If everyone feels If you don't rest assured, you won't have to watch it tonight."
Belle looked like she wasn't worried about Bruce suddenly turning into a monster at all. What she meant was that even if Bruce Lee turned into a monster, there would be enough time for the others to run. Because even in this day and age, the kind of monster that could complete the mutation process, quickly untie the ropes and kill people before humans could react, could not exist at all.
Even if she did, even Belle wouldn't be able to stop it, the people of the entire mansion wouldn't be able to escape, nor would the survivors of this Xiangcheng. In addition, Belle's five senses are very sensitive, she can see abnormal energy waves on Bruce Lee's body, which is the energy of a fake ability. It wasn't very clear during the day, but now it's getting clearer and clearer.
So there is a great possibility that Bruce Lee is going through an incredibly complex evolutionary process.
The process of evolution is unique to each person, not all people go through the process of fever again and again, and then unconsciously awaken the five basic abilities. Just like Erik Kelly, awakened straight to the second level of thunder, who said Bruce can't be like Erik Kelly?
Luong Tieu Ky and Ngo Dao Muoi and Tam Nguyet were hugging Due Due, who was worried and restless, but seeing Belle's steadfast attitude gradually calmed down. But after all, they were all normal people, never seen the evolution of abilities, she didn't need them to open her mouth, she also actively dispersed these people to ensure safety.
Tam Nguyet held Due Due and stood at the door of the villa, hesitant to go, but seeing her two-year-old son in her heart sighed, then went out.
The whole mansion was left with only two people, Belle and Lor. Lor crossed his arms and looked at Bruce lying on the mattress. The filaments on her head grew more and more, in a moment the black hair on her head became white. Lor frowned tightly, said to Belle:
"Or you won't go tomorrow, leaving you alone, I'm not sure."
"Why don't you go?"
Belle walked up to Bruce Lee, lowered her head to look closely, and discovered that not only the silk on her head, but also the surrounding body, there are gradually woven strands of silk. To reassure Lor, Belle told the truth:
"It was not certain before, but now we can be sure that Bruce Lee is going through the process of evolving into a fake ability."
"How do you know?"
“I feel waves of supernatural energy around her body.”
"Why can't I feel it?"
Lor squatted down next to Bruce, staring at her face with wide eyes, but still didn't feel any waves of energy.
"You're right… you're going to be killed by your own stupidity anyway."
Belle looked at Lor and tried to strain her eyes to stare at Bruce Lee, can you see with the naked eye that there are energy waves around that person?
She circled behind Lor, thinking that this stupid man is the biological father of her daughter, is such a low IQ inherited for Tieu Ai? She suddenly regretted not being able to kick the man in front of her.
Then she suddenly thought that this person doesn't even know how to absorb energy, eating crystal cores is a passive way of absorbing energy. It's clearly a third-order fire-type pseudo-ability , and aside from the sharp eyes and ears, the other three senses have not developed at all. You can live without leaving Duc Thanh it's a miracle!
Perhaps there are people who are born like that, they are weak in one aspect, but outstanding in another. Lor's IQ, EQ are too low, but the ability is very strong. Isn't this justification for the above point?
Belle consoled herself, Lor could still be saved, so she frowned, crouched, and stood behind Lor, her hands pressed against his shoulders. She released her water energy, slowly wrapping around Lor's body. Her hair fell to his ear, she instructed:
"Close your eyes, do you feel anything?"
"Your hair in my ear is so itchy."
"… What else?"
"Not available!"
"Very well, I'm out of medicine!"
Belle withdrew her hand and water energy, reached a conclusion, and turned to leave the mansion. Lor opened his eyes, got up and chased after him, he smiled and held Belle's hand. Belle couldn't pull away, so he let him hold her and took her to the To's house.
If Belle had told Bruce Lee not to turn into a monster, Lor would have believed her. He decided to still follow the scheduled schedule tomorrow, bringing a few people to follow Lap Ha to pick them up. Because he had to go, it was natural for him to miss Belle. He kept clinging to her, entwining her outside the To family's wall, so entangled that Belle was going crazy before he let her go.
As soon as Belle entered the door, putting two of Lor's swords on the shoe cabinet next to the main door, she immediately felt that the atmosphere in the house was strange. She poked her neck to look into the living room and kitchen but saw no sign of her parents. I was about to go upstairs when I heard the "click" of a lighter from the courtyard.
Belle went into the kitchen, she looked through the kitchen window to see Mr William sitting under the porch smoking a cigarette.
In her memory, Mr. William had quit smoking for many years, only occasionally having something very annoying Mr. William would take a breath or two. Belle shrank back, remembering that when she escaped, Mrs Huyen was about to tell Mr. William everything, but wanted to pretend she didn't see him.
"Belle, are you back?"
