Time flies, and it’s the end of the 20th century in a blink of an eye. To be precise, it was 1995. We were at the airport station, and you lent it to me, but I didn’t want to return it... What, it’s a cross-over. In short, there were two people in that year Minors joined Midnight - ten-year-old Li Yadi and twelve-year-old Allen.
They escaped from an orphanage in Detroit three years ago. The reason is not complicated. This is a typical sociological case that can be applied to the adult world. Of course, it is more straightforward to express it in children. White and explicit.
The story is not long, and the process is like this. First, as he grows older, the wisdom shown by Li Yadi makes all the children except his brother feel afraid, followed by jealousy and disgust; then there will be tall and tall children. Children come to make trouble, such as being tripped in the restaurant, toys being broken, etc. Then, it is conceivable that Liardi will not cry and go to the adults to complain and ask for help. He will use his wisdom to do everything possible. Taking advantage of the conditions to fight back. The effect is undoubtedly significant, because what happens next is that the children suffer, cry and go to the adults to complain and ask for help, and adopt a cold and violent attitude towards the two brothers, ostracizing them into the Outside of large groups.
Liardi disagreed with this. He knew exactly what was going on. He knew better than those involved how this situation would develop.
For example, when humans discover that a species that is better than themselves has appeared on the earth. Although the number is very small, its capabilities are undoubtedly in two dimensions with itself. What will humans do then?
Are you willing to accept these outliers? No, that’s a big mistake!
Humans will take advantage of this species to control it when it is still in its infancy, and try to discover the secrets of this species being better than itself. If it fails, it will exterminate its species. But when all these plans fail, humans will understand that they are on earth. When their dominant position is destined to be replaced by this superior species, humans will change their attitude and beg for mercy. They will not feel guilty at all for what they have done, and expect that the other party will treat them kindly in turn.
This is what happened in this orphanage. Of course, the children do not have such a mature way of thinking. They just follow their instincts and determine every step of their actions. Yes, this is human beings, selfish, cruel and shameless animals, even if These characteristics cannot be concealed in childhood.
Liardi can see very far, so he can also deduce that as long as any one of these children is the first to flatter the two brothers, the next ones will rush to come over to show their courtesy and escape from that seemingly A growing group, invest in this small group that is obviously more promising and advantageous.
It won't be long before he becomes the alpha child. This is the sad state of affairs, the natural law of the universe.
So, after ten months, Li Yadi became like the boss of the orphanage. The new children would be told by other children, "Hey, did you see that guy? He is the leader here, and he Be careful what you say."
One day, without warning, Liardi suddenly said to Allen: "Brother, let's get out of this hellish place."
Allen thought about it for a few seconds and then quickly agreed.
In fact, there were many reasons behind this conversation. Liardi understood that Allen was almost ten years old and was on the fat side, which made him look older than his actual age. Even a very young orphan knew that
, the older you get, the slimmer your chances of being adopted. Adults are more willing to adopt babies or children under five years old, so that they can hide the fact that they are not related by blood.
As for Liardi himself, several couples wanted to adopt him, but every time they went to the interview, they were frightened by his over-mature conversation and almost radical ideas and ran away. Only Allen knew in his heart that he was his younger brother.
I messed up on purpose because I didn’t want to be separated from myself.
Therefore, the two brothers tacitly lived in the orphanage from preschool to after school. Until that day, Li Yadi made a decision. Since he had to leave sooner or later, there was no need to wait until he was sixteen. Because in this world
Even if another hundred and sixty years pass, people will eventually have to rely on themselves to survive.
But before leaving, he had one last thing to do - kill everyone here who knew their brothers.
Some people may say that only perverted murderers can do this kind of behavior. If two children under ten years old have such thoughts, they are simply born devils.
In fact, this is not the case. This is a very reasonable and well-thought-out decision.
The seven-and-a-half-year-old Liadi has learned enough about the entire modern human society. At least in his opinion, he can become a philosopher before he reaches adulthood. Therefore, a person who has seen the world very thoroughly since he was a child
People, they must have certain plans for their future (except Mr. Cat, most of the time he just takes it one day at a time). In this plan, a very critical point is that on the way to the top society
Along the way, so-called "criminal" behavior is bound to occur.
In order to prepare for the government investigation that will come sooner or later, the best way is to disappear yourself. Never being born is a good choice. The data stored in the computer can be hacked, and the files of the local police station can be burned, but
What about people? What should we do with the teachers and classmates in the orphanage? So, here is the initial answer.
For Li Yadi and Allen at that time, they basically had to rely on their younger brother to handle this matter. Allen's nervous system mutation was an accident that only happened after joining Midnight. When he was ten years old, he was just an ordinary person. But Li Yadi
Yadi is different. Over the years, except for his brother, he has never shown his "dangerous" ability in front of anyone. This is a secret that must not be leaked. But one winter night, he used his holy power and easily destroyed
Dozens of lives were lost, most of them children...
No matter how many years passed, Allen would still remember that night. He was standing guard in an alley while Liardi walked into the orphanage. After only five minutes, everything was over.
Only two thin children escaped from the building where the fire was spreading. They had not been in this orphanage for a long time. They were originally street children and their bodies had not fully recovered. However, just as they finally arrived
When there was a temporary place to call home, a killing ended everything.
"Ai... Allen..." A child cried: "Liardi is crazy... he is a monster... he... he..."
Allen stabbed the child with the dagger hidden behind his back and penetrated his chest. The thin figure fell down forever before he could moan a few times.
The other child wanted to turn around and run away, but Riyadi appeared behind him at this moment...
The white snow was sprinkled with red blood. The eyes of the two children when they died were extremely terrifying, and they often appeared in Allen's nightmares.
"Let's go, brother." Liardi said coldly. A kid who didn't even need to buy a ticket to ride on the bus had an aura that was more terrifying than a professional killer.
That night, they left that place, that city... Liardi used holy power to destroy everything. The explosion, flames, and debris of the building covered up all the evidence. The next day's newspaper reported an underground gas leak.
The local people just mourned the tragedy for a while. Within two weeks, the government had begun planning for reconstruction work.
The journey of Liardi and Allen to leave various unsolved cases in American criminal history began on that day, because they were children. Have you ever seen ten-year-old children robbing banks, killing people, and stealing museums? They were never even listed on the list.
For the sake of the criminal suspect!
Two years passed like this...
Don't think that it was Ziye who found the two brothers. In fact, it was Li Yadi and Allen who found Ziye first. This is not a new thing. Although it is difficult to discover a mysterious force, on the other side of the earth,
At one end, there is a child named Gu Chen, who was able to accomplish something more difficult than this a few years ago, so there is a precedent for this.
Things later became a matter of course. Less than a year after joining Midnight, Li Yadi was regarded as the perfect candidate for the next BOSS, and Allen naturally followed suit.
However, on that night when the orphanage was massacred, the two thin figures in the alley were still lingering in Allen's mind. It was not until the battle with Lord Cat that they appeared clearly before his eyes again.
At this moment, Allen understood that what their brothers killed that night was not two innocent children, but what they killed was his own soul. From then on, he no longer felt any sense of killing.
I have become numb to morality, dreams, humanity, and all the beautiful things in the world.
There is only one thing left that can make Allen feel that he is still "alive", and that is food. Food is Allen's only remaining pursuit, and the last thing that can bring him some satisfaction. But he also knows very well in his heart - eating
No matter how much you get, you can't fill your empty soul.
…………
"Too much blood has flowed. It's all over." Mr. Cat restrained his spiritual power and put away his weapons. Apparently he had no intention of fighting anymore.
But Allen was still approaching Master Cat step by step: "I must kill you... I can't let you go to Dimi's place..."
Mr. Cat looked at him and said, "You have done enough for a person who is not related by blood."
Allen did not stop; "Blood relationship? Humph...that kind of thing doesn't matter at all...we will always be brothers."
"Maybe when Li Yadi was a child, he really didn't know that your brother was not his biological brother." Mr. Cat sighed in a sad tone: "But do you really think that he still doesn't know about this now?"
Allen finally stopped.
Mr. Cat continued: "Because your last name is Hurt, and you two have not been very gregarious since childhood, the director of the orphanage lied to you."
"Why do you know this?" Allen asked breathlessly.
"Soul touch, just a little trick to read memories."
"Hmph... whatever... your words won't change anything."
"I just want to tell you..." Mr. Cat turned his head and surrendered his gaze to the spiritual consciousness of Wang Xu and Li Yadi: "If you really want to play the role of an elder brother, you should use force when your younger brother makes a mistake.
Punch him in the face instead of being an accomplice." He turned back to Allen and said: "Look what kind of arrogant, selfish, self-righteous tyrant you have spent decades creating."
Allen snorted coldly: "Then what did you create? The devil?"
Mr. Cat spread his hands: "I can't change anything. From the beginning to now, this person has always been...a crazy otaku."
Allen's blood was almost gone, and the flame of life had burned to the last ashes. He could no longer stand up and sat helplessly on the ground.
"If saying this can help you feel more at ease before you die..." Master Cat said: "The Russians beat me too badly, and I have no interest in intervening in the battle between the madman and the tyrant over there.
"
Allen smiled bitterly, "After all... Wang Xu... will win, right..."
Woody on the side answered the question for Mr. Cat: "Hey hey hey... that's all right."
"Haha... then we... can be brothers again in another world. As the older brother, I have to take the first step..." Allen's voice became weaker and weaker, and the last signs of life disappeared together with his voice.
.
Mr. Cat looked at the sky, not knowing who he was talking to: "You should know this time, you want to slap your face..."
