Chapter 130 20: Torrent
Ab returned to his ward on crutches. Many people in the same ward were also discussing the parade, but most of them seemed a little happy. Why?
He couldn't quite understand. If they could gain something by participating, it would be normal to be happy. But their current bodies obviously couldn't support their participation, so why would they be happy?
After thinking for a while, Abu came to an uncertain guess.
“Is this exciting for people to notice ‘us’, to make people care about ‘us’, and to make people fear ‘us’?”
A Bu feels that this may be a temporary gain, but in the end it will only deepen the predicament and thicken the miserable barriers, gradually forming a big pit that can bury them all.
Not long after the medicine was changed, someone brought lunch and told him that his mother would be taken care of by nurses and volunteers, so that he could recover first and not run around.
Abu was a little surprised. Who would care about him specifically? Could it be the nurse just now?
With a warm feeling in his heart, he said thank you and started having lunch.
There is a TV in the ward, and the news is playing on it.
A large number of people occupied the streets. The leaders held various signs and shouted slogans, leading the people behind them to move forward.
There were many police officers around, barely maintaining order, avoiding acts of vandalism, smashing and looting, and having to deal with the demonstrators who were constantly provoking.
The people in the ward watched happily and whistled from time to time, as if they were also in the team.
In the picture, the reporter had just finished interviewing a passerby and was about to walk towards another guy who was throwing bricks at the store when a black shadow fell from the sky.
Crack.
Have you ever stepped on a can?
This is the picture.
But the can was replaced by a person.
The reporter was covered with blood, and even the camera lens behind him was stained with blood drops.
The reporter's pupils were shaken, and his legs instantly softened. He lay limply on the ground backwards, screaming as if he had lost the ability to speak.
The brave cameraman focused his camera on the blood-stained faces of people who slowly stood up.
Abu's heart was clenched tightly.
Forgetting to breathe for a moment.
Isn’t this the old man named Leroy?
They had met just the day before yesterday, and A Bu would never forget his face.
In the picture, El ignored the reporters and cameras, holding a fire ax, turning around and swiftly swinging the ax at those who were smashing, smashing and looting.
That speed and strength are not normal human beings at all.
The ward was silent. People covered their mouths and their throats were clogged. They could curse the officials, but this man would really kill him.
The screen is cut off.
But you don’t need to think about it to know that at this time, a bloody killing is taking place in broad daylight.
Abu was shaken and could not calm down for a long time.
Then he used his mobile phone to go online and search for everything about the old man. Unfortunately, there was very little information, and the news exposed on the Internet was not even as much as he knew.
When he came to the bathroom, he picked up the phone and was about to report the crime and tell the police the old man's true identity, but his hand hung on the dial button and hesitated for a long time.
Maybe they already know the identity of the old man, but there is no need to tell him.
I should not continue to meddle in my own business to avoid being targeted by him again.
"We are compatriots."
Olivier's voice sounded in his mind.
He took a deep breath and pressed the dial button.
The operator didn't show any surprise or surprise. He just said that his words had been recorded and they would call him if he needed assistance.
Although he didn't know if he had helped, A Bu still breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had broken away from some kind of restraint and had done something that he agreed with in his heart.
Putting the phone in his pocket, he touched the strange red fruit again.
"Should I take the initiative for once?"
Recalling what happened that night and the endless extraordinary events on the Internet in recent times, he finally made up his mind. He washed the fruit casually, sat on the toilet, raised his head, and put it in his mouth. He found that he couldn't bite it at all, so he could only swallow it with a frown.
For a moment, an inexplicable and wonderful feeling spread from the heart to the whole body.
The past thoughts seemed to gain clarity in an instant, and the squeezed emotions formed a storm in the brain and gradually dispersed.
Covering his head and groaning, his body was stiff for a while before slowly relaxing.
"Have I awakened my superpower?"
Ab felt the power, but he did not experiment immediately, but carefully perceived the "explanation" of this ability.
【Earth Torrent】
"Control and propagate soil and rocks to a certain extent, change the density, and shape them at will."
He stood up and found that his injured leg had healed at some point.
“It turns out it has healing effects.” If Abu had known earlier, he might have given the meatballs to his mother.
But now that he has eaten it all, it is useless to say anything, so he might as well make good use of this power.
“Thank you for your gift, I hope I can have something to repay you in the future.”
Abu didn't know the identity and location of the old man, so he could only salute in four directions to express his gratitude.
Looking at the bandage on his leg, he took it off, put it in the bathroom with the crutches, locked it from the inside, and jumped out from above the stall.
He understood the old man's grief, but he also didn't want to see the old man continue to kill innocent people like this.
The culprits are the Martin brothers.
Their behavior is not worthy of forgiveness.
Eagerly running downstairs to the hospital, Abu found a deserted place, sank and disappeared to the ground.
The earth stretched his perception, and the surge of soil pushed him forward quickly. In just a few minutes, he arrived at the place where the incident occurred.
Unfortunately, it’s still too late.
He found no trace of El.
The streets were full of dead and injured people. Some people who had learned first aid tried to save the lives of the seriously injured, but most of them could only watch them die in their own hands.
This was the first time for Abu to see such a scene, and he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Isn’t it fun to do this?
Could it be that the wails of the dying people sounded beautiful to him?
Abu couldn't empathize with him.
Even if he met the Martin brothers, he would prefer to simply bury them and stop harming the world.
The guilt in his heart was completely buried with his crazy killing, and he could no longer let him go on like this.
Ability will not be given without reason. Since it falls on him, he needs to use this ability to do something.
Not to mention the empty slogan of "for the sake of all mankind", he at least wants to eliminate this "monster" that chooses people to eat for his own country.
He wanted to save people, but found that there were only minor injuries and deaths, and the few who were near death had completely closed their eyes.
The minor injuries are basically sprained ankles, etc., and there is no need to even go to the hospital.
A Bu used his senses to observe on the spot, but found no trace left by the other party. It was as if he disappeared out of thin air. After walking around in a circle, he could only return to the hospital in silence.
While taking the elevator, I met the nurse who helped me.
Because of the mental shock, he forgot to bring the bandage and crutches.
The nurse looked at his legs and fell into deep thought.
