At this moment, Su Wei looked at the boy who said nothing and continued without any discouragement: "We will protect you from now on and never let you encounter the slightest danger again. My little friend, what's your name?"
The boy remained silent, not even raising his head. He seemed to be immersed in his own sad world and unable to pay attention to the movements around him.
Wu Haosen, who was leaning on crutches, stood not far away and said helplessly: "Forget it, he doesn't want to pay attention to anyone now. Since he came here, he only told us that the people who killed his companions were Hronks. Nothing else."
He refuses to say anything. Let him be alone."
The boy knelt on the cold ground, listening to the footsteps that were fading away. He looked at the room where he and his dead companions were the only ones left. He raised his head in grief and his chest heaved violently. He wailed,
He finally cried loudly. Tears poured out of his eyes continuously, sliding down his scarred face, making him feel a dull pain.
His cries gradually became fainter, and his exhausted body leaned weakly to one side.
After an unknown amount of time, he slowly opened his eyes while lying on his side on the ground. He realized that a quilt had been added to his body at some point. He wiped the tears on his face and slowly sat up.
A woman's face suddenly appeared in his eyes that were blurred by tears. He suddenly shrank up like a frightened bird, blocked his chest with his clenched fists, and leaned back.
"Don't be afraid." Liu Weike said gently, "My name is Liu Weike, you can call me sister Weike. What about you, what is your name?"
The boy pursed his lips tightly and his eyes were wary.
Liu Weike looked at the boy who was still silent, suddenly straightened his face, and said seriously: "You are probably twelve or thirteen years old, and you are no longer a child who needs care. I know that you are because of the death of your companion.
I feel sad, but there is no point in abandoning yourself and isolating yourself from the world. If you really want to be a man who stands upright, you should stand up bravely and find a way to avenge them, instead of kneeling here and shedding tears all your life."
The boy was stunned, staring straight at the woman in front of him. Since he was rescued, most of the people here have comforted him with gentle words, and few have been as harsh as Liu Weike. None of those gentle comforts can relieve him.
, on the contrary, these powerful words made him sober up and calm down a little while immersed in grief.
Yes, there is no point in crying. He wants revenge, and he wants to become strong enough. He looked at the body of Aunt Ji He, which was covered with white cloth not far away, and vowed to make the Hronks who killed her pay with their blood.
.
Liu Weike saw that he seemed to be touched, so he changed his tone and said angrily: "Hey, kid, do you know how long I have been keeping you here? I even covered you with a quilt with good intentions. Just don't keep silent.
Is that okay?”
The boy whispered: "My name is Chu Haoze."
"Hello, Chu Haoze." Liu Weike held his hand cordially. Chu Haoze's hand was very rough. Liu Weike looked up along the back of his hand and saw that his arms were scarred. He was wearing
It was a large, ill-fitting vest that was torn and thin. Because he was so thin, it seemed like he was just skin and bones, and his ribs were clearly protruding.
Liu Weike pulled Chu Haoze up from the ground and said, "I found a room for you from the Security Bureau. You can stay here first, okay?"
Chu Haoze nodded obediently and followed her out of the room. He couldn't help but look back at the corpses covered with white cloth on the ground, and silently clenched his fists. He would definitely take revenge, he would definitely do it.
"Come on, this is your room." Liu Weike opened a door, then took out a few clothes from the shopping bag on the bedside table, and said to Chu Haoze: "These are new clothes that my sister bought for you. You can try them on."
Try it on and see if it fits."
Just as Liu Weike was about to leave, Chu Haoze grabbed his arm. "What's wrong?"
"I remembered something." Chu Haoze trembled and pulled out a silver armband from his dirty trousers pocket. "This is something left by the Hroncs who killed us."
Liu Weike looked at the blood-stained armband and asked, "Do you know why they attacked you? Do you know their next plan?"
Chu Haoze shook his head with tears in his eyes and said: "I can't understand their language at all. It would be great if Brother Tunan was here. He knows the language of the Hronk people, and maybe he can understand their intentions."
"Who is brother Tunan you are talking about?"
Chu Haoze replied: "He, like us, was abducted to work as a laborer under the Hlanke people. The Hlanke people promised to let us go, but took him away."
"Did the Hronks who controlled you voluntarily let you go?" Liu Weike frowned and thought, and suddenly made a guess: "Tell me, are the people who let you go and those who killed your companions the same group of people?
?”
Chu Haoze was shocked when he heard this. He said in a panic: "If this is really the case, brother Tunan will also be in danger! But I can't figure out why they pretended to let us go and then attack us again?"
"I'm just guessing. It's possible that the person who committed the murder has nothing to do with the people you knew before." Liu Weike took the bloody seal from Chu Haoze's hand and said to him: "We will investigate this matter carefully. We will definitely
We will try to find the mastermind as soon as possible. You first have a good rest, take good care of your body, and make yourself stronger, okay?"
Chu Haoze nodded, looking determined.

When Liu Weike came to Su Wei's office, Wu Haosen was talking to Su Wei. Liu Weike knocked on the door and walked in. He put the silver armband on the table and said, "This is what the boy brought back."
The armbands were left behind by the Hronks who attacked them."
The silver armband was exquisitely made, with a strange and ferocious two-headed tiger engraved on it. Wu Haosen looked at the familiar pattern, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his back tensed up.
"This is the unique totem of King Anduo's tribe." He said in a deep voice, suddenly feeling that his throat was extremely dry. He glanced at Liu Weike and said: "Weike, please put this armband here with us first. You first
Go get busy."
Liu Weike knew that Wu Haosen might have something important to discuss with Su Wei alone, so he quickly left the office.
"King Anduo..." Liu Weike repeated the title Wu Haosen just said while walking in the corridor. Since the armband has a unique two-headed tiger totem, the killer was probably sent by King Anduo.
However, is it possible that someone else deliberately framed her?
