Chapter 555: The "matricidal" superpower?
an hour ago.

Maddie's house.

Maddie, with her cute face and golden braids, looked at her adoptive mother who was on the phone, gently pushed the plate away from the dining table, and then walked to the desk and started drawing.

Looking at her daughter who was immersed in painting, the mother helplessly put her hands on her waist and said to her: "Maddie, you should eat. Go back to painting later."

Maddie seemed to ignore her mother's words and continued drawing on the paper.

"Maddie, be obedient and eat first. I hope we can get along like a family."

The mother came over and said angrily.

Seeing her daughter still doodling on the art paper and ignoring him made her even angrier.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk, but you better be good and put the notebook away."

As she said that she came up and snatched Maddie's art book.

Seeing the art book being snatched, Maddie immediately reached out and grabbed it, "No, Mom, don't!"

"Give me!"

The mother exerted force and snatched the art book away.

"No!"

Just as McGrady was expressing his emotions intensely, the water cup on the table broke into two pieces with a "crack".

The water in the cup flowed directly onto the table and ran down the wet notebook.

Maddie's mother stared in shock at the cup that was broken into two pieces by an invisible force, and asked her in disbelief:
"Did you do this! Maddie?"

She knew that the girl she adopted was special, but she didn't expect her to be this special.

Reaching out her hand, the mother picked up the broken pieces of the cup and looked at Maddie in shock.

Knowing that he had done something wrong, Maddie got down from the chair and lowered his head towards his mother.

"No wonder there are broken glass in the house. It turns out it wasn't an accident. No one warned me about this. I..."

The somewhat flustered mother shook her head at Maddie and walked quickly towards the phone.

"I have to call the doctor and tell him you need treatment."

Seeing that her mother was frightened and wanted to send her to the hospital for treatment, Maddie immediately stepped forward and said, "No, Mom, don't send me to the hospital."

Just as Maddie was speaking excitedly, the glass lens of the photo frame placed on the cabinet shattered with a "crack".

The glass of the photo frame produced spider web-like marks that spread around.

The terrified mother backed away, looking at her in horror. "I'm going to call the emergency center right now. I can't take it anymore."

Filled with guilt, Maddie tried to get closer to her mother, but she avoided him.

"No, don't touch me, Maddie!"

Seeing her daughter's sad expression after being rejected, Maddie's mother's heart softened again. She took a deep breath and said to Maddie, "Go back upstairs, Maddie, now!"

Watching his mother pick up the phone, Maddie had no choice but to go upstairs, enter his room, and close the door with a bang.

In the living room, Maddie's mother was about to call the hospital when the glass window of the room suddenly shook.

Confused, she put down the phone, and heard a loud "bang".

All the glass in the room exploded in an instant. The fish tank, glass cups and other glass products made a deafening sound. Countless glass fragments that were blasted into the sky fell to the ground with a "crash".

The light bulb in the room exploded in an instant, and the whole room was plunged into darkness.

After a while, Maddie's mother came out from under the table where she was hiding, gasping for breath and looking around.

Her face was covered with broken glass and scratched with countless bloody marks.

"what happened?!"

Covering her face, she looked around in shock.

In the room on the second floor, Maddie, who was hiding under the bed, seemed to have a premonition of something, so he closed his eyes and covered his ears.

"Wow!"

Accompanied by a scream of "Ah", Maddie's mother in the living room looked at the broken glass flying towards her.

Blood spurted out immediately!

after an hour.

Several police cars were parked outside Maddie's mother's house.

After hearing the news, Peter rushed to the scene with A Zu and Tom.

"How's it going, Chandler?"

Peter asked his old friend who was in charge of the scene.

Chandler shook his head and said to Peter, "I found Naomi's body at the scene. There was broken glass everywhere, and her body was kind of miserable."

After hearing this, Peter looked at the little girl Maddie who was sitting in the corridor at the door with her arms folded.

"Who would be so cruel?"

"Whoever he is, he is not a normal guy. A neighbor named Downs heard the noise and came over. The criminal probably ran away after hearing the noise."

Chandler said to Peter.

He shook his head with some regret and said, "Naomi is a good person. She adopted orphans and managed a youth center. We all don't want this to happen."

Peter was talking to Chandler here when Tom walked into the room and squatted in front of the body.

After taking a look at the wounded body of the deceased, Tom's eyes became more serious.

Although he was young, Tom at this time had already shown an indifferent attitude towards death.

Even though it was a corpse with a tragic death, he did not show any fear. Instead, he analyzed the cause of death.

After Peter finished talking to Chandler, Tom came over and said to him, "Dad, Ms. Naomi seemed to be hit by countless glass fragments in an instant, and the force was so strong that it almost pierced her skin."

"So, it's not an ordinary accident?"

"I guess so. Maybe there will be new discoveries after dissecting the body. At present, it should be an external force that controlled the countless glass fragments to pierce her body." After listening to Tom's words, Peter looked at him with a puzzled look.

Why is this naughty kid so interested in corpses?

He remembered that in the original world line, this kid had done something unusual to corpses.

Old Tom Riddle, who had Voldemort as his son, could not rest in peace after his death.

Voldemort, who had lost his physical body, did not hesitate to dig up his own father's grave and use his father's bones as raw materials to rebuild his physical body in order to resurrect himself as the Dark Lord.

"Aren't you afraid of dead bodies, Tom?"

Peter asked him.

"No, I'm not afraid of death, Dad. Death is just a big corpse feast."

Tom spoke to Peter in his still-unchanged London accent.

"Yeah, that sounds reasonable."

Peter was about to remind Tom not to be too obsessed with death, but Chandler came over and said to him, "People from the Child Services Center will be here tomorrow. We have to send her to an orphanage tonight. This girl's experience has been a nightmare. She has been adopted by several families."

Chandler cast a questioning look at Peter, "Peter, you have many children at home, can you let her rest at your place tonight?"

Peter glanced at Maddie, who was folding her arms and feeling a little cold, and nodded, saying, "Of course, she is my daughter's friend. She can live on the farm if she wants."

Peter walked towards Maddie and held out his hand to her, "Maddie, can you stay at my house tonight?"

Maddie looked hesitantly towards her house and held out her hand to Peter.

She knew that the other person was Baobao's father, and she thanked Peter quietly: "Thank you."

Tom said nothing, but looked at Maddie, his eyes narrowed.

The next day.

In the farm barn, Baobao, Wei, and Maddie are playing together.

The three girls sat on the newly piled haystack made by Clark and chatted together.

After the three chatted for a while, they went up to the second floor of the barn.

Maddie looked at the second floor which Clark and A-Zu had previously used as a "secret fortress".

She picked up a lantern that Clark had bought when she wore the ruby ​​ring.

"I really envy you, Baobao, Wei. Your father loves you very much."

Maddie said with a sad mood: "Unlike everyone else, they don't like me."

Baobao didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only say, "Don't worry, one day you will find someone who likes you."

“I don’t know if I’ll ever meet him.”

Maddie put down the lantern in her hand.

"Maddie, what happened last night?"

Wei asked her own question.

"I don't know."

Maddie lowered her head, not meeting Wei and Baobao's gazes.

"I was in my room on the second floor. I...I didn't see it."

Boom naturally believed in her friend. She took her friend's hand and said, "Let's go watch horseback riding. Lana can take us horseback riding, and you can talk to the flowers in the wild that haven't withered yet."

Maddie nodded and let Baobao pull her hand and walk outside.

As the three of them walked out of the barn, they met A-Zu.

When A-Zu saw the three people coming out, he glanced at Maddie and handed her the paintbrush and art book.

"Here are some crayons and a coloring book. Take them."

Peter asked him to buy crayons and coloring books and give them to the girl as a gift for her visit to the farm.

Seeing A-Zu, Maddie took a step back in fear.

"Why? Are you afraid of me?"

A-Zu had a fake smile on his face, "I'm Bakugo and Wei's brother. I'm not a bad person, so don't be afraid."

It would have been fine if he didn't smile, but Maddie got even more scared after he faked a smile.

Seeing the other person's frightened expression, A-Zu immediately put away his professional fake smile.

It turns out that these little brats are really troublesome.

When I was a kid, receiving a gift like this would definitely make me happy for the whole day.

At that time, my father collected my pocket money, so I couldn't even afford to buy a gift with my own money.

"Take it."

A-Zu directly handed the crayons and coloring book to the other party.

Maddie was frightened, closed his eyes and took a step back.

"boom!"

The glass cover of the electric light in the barn shattered with a dull sound.

When he opened his eyes and saw everyone in shock, McGrady realized he had gotten into trouble and immediately ran outside.

Wei and Baobao were stunned for a moment, then quickly chased outside.

A-Zu didn't chase after her. He watched Maddie's back as she left, and suddenly remembered what Tom said last night.

Could this girl be the murderer?
the other side.

Running onto the road, panicked and guilty, Maddie didn't notice a car following behind her.
