American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 37 Thinking Beautifully

After arriving at the destination and finally getting rid of the enthusiastic aunt, Xiao Xian went upstairs. In the stairwell, Xiao Xian saw Aunt Mei, who looked haggard and had tears in the corners of her eyes, standing guard at the door of her house.

When she saw Xiao Xian, Aunt Mei's eyes lit up. She rushed over and grabbed Xiao Xian's hand, saying to him tearfully:
"I apologize to you for what happened to Peter. I know he was wrong, but can you say in court that he saw us having sex and attacked you in a rage? And forgive him. I've asked a lawyer friend, and Peter can get many fewer years in prison this way!"

"You want me to perjure myself? To reduce the sentence of a man who tried to kill me, and almost succeeded?"

Xiao Xian laughed when he heard that. He was not a saint. There were only two reasons why he did not kill Peter on the spot for revenge. One was that he regarded him as a tool to give himself super regeneration and buff, and the other was that it was too easy for Peter to be killed with one blow.

Although Xiao Xian did not like Tomie, and was not Tomie's boyfriend, this did not prevent Peter from wanting to win over Xiao Xian. In order to achieve his goal, Peter chose the extreme method of killing Xiao Xian.

Xiao Xian felt that it was too light to kill this man who tried to cheat on him and also wanted to kill him with a single knife, let alone help him reduce his sentence.

"I know Peter was wrong. Please, please, for what happened between us, forgive Peter this time! Give him another chance? He just went astray. I promise that he won't do anything to you or Tomie again after he gets out of prison!"

Aunt Mei begged very humbly, even bringing up her history with Xiao Xian. If it weren't for Peter, she would have planned to never mention this matter again.

"First of all, you don't have that much face. Peter stabbed my heart with a knife coated with poison in the parking lot. If I didn't happen to have the superpower of regeneration, other people would have been stabbed to death. Would Peter have given them a second chance? Secondly, I was helping you at the time. I have video evidence. Strictly speaking, you owe me, not me you. I hope you understand this."

Xiao Xian shook off Aunt Mei's hand without hesitation. He was not Long Aotian who thought with his lower body. Once a woman begged for mercy or cried, he would not know which way was which and would even let go of someone who tried to kill him.

Not to mention that the incident with Aunt Mei was only because Peter drugged her, even if they were really together, Xiao Xian would not have given false testimony in court just because of Aunt Mei in order to reduce the sentence of Peter who killed him.

Besides, what era is this? It was consensual. How can it be that after the sex, the man owes the woman something? The man was not the only one who was happy at the time.

"Please~ I really have no other choice~ I only have this nephew, I watched him grow up, I treat him like my own son, his parents asked me to take good care of him before they died, I promised them." Aunt Mei burst into tears upon seeing this.

"Then you should educate him. If you had sent him to jail when he drugged you, nothing would have happened later."

Xiao Xian rolled his eyes when he heard this. Although it was also due to Tomie's charisma, Peter's lawlessness had a lot to do with his inflated mentality after becoming a superhero, and his inflated mentality was related to his education and personality.

Moreover, if Aunt May had not indulged Peter and allowed the criminal Peter to escape legal punishment, but instead called the police directly and was wanted by the police, it would be hard to say whether Peter, who had no home to return to, would still commit murder after understanding the consequences of the crime.

"Please~ I beg you, as long as you agree, you can ask me to do anything!!" Looking at the teardrop mole at the corner of Xiao Xian's eyes, Aunt Mei, who had no other choice, said inexplicably. Even when she thought of the relevant scene, she felt her body a little hot.

When Aunt Mei thought of the scene after Xiao Xian agreed, she didn't even think of Peter's sentence reduction, but couldn't help but think of herself and Xiao Xian.
"Anything is possible?" Xiao Xian rolled his eyes and said, feeling calm and even wanting to laugh. Did he look like someone who only had his brain and his lower body to think?

"Yes, anything is fine." Aunt May nodded quickly, wiped her tears, combed her hair, and forced a bright smile. "Then I think you have to go back in time and teach Peter to be a good person. Don't do anything illegal, especially don't try to steal my girl."

Pursing his lips, Xiao Xian took out the key. He was no longer interested in chatting with Aunt Mei. It was unthinkable that Aunt Mei would think of giving false testimony for the murderer.

"Please~" Aunt Mei knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"It's no use begging me. Let me tell you, when Peter was arrested by the police, he resisted arrest violently and killed several police officers. Whether I forgive Peter or not, whether I give false testimony for him or not, he will have to stay in prison for the rest of his life."

Xiao Xian looked at Aunt Mei lying on the ground and said
"You treat Peter as your own son, but Peter killed other people's sons. What about their parents? What about their children? Have you ever thought about them? In my opinion, life imprisonment is a light sentence. Peter should be sentenced to death."

"." Aunt Mei was speechless after hearing this. She could only collapse on the ground and sob silently.

"Can you get up? Although it's impossible for me to help you give false testimony, I can still help you get home. After all, it's just a casual relationship."

Xiao Xian looked at Aunt Mei who was sitting on the ground sobbing and said that although Peter had brought it upon himself and did not deserve sympathy, Aunt Mei and Xiao Xian had no grudge against each other and might have been wishful thinking.

But as a human being, it’s not wrong to love fantasy.

"Thank you for your help." Actually, she could get up and go home by herself, but looking at Xiao Xian's handsome face, Aunt Mei blushed a little.

"It's okay. Neighbors help each other." Xiao Xian helped Aunt Mei up and walked to the door of Aunt Mei's house and asked, "Where is the key?"

"In my left trouser pocket." Aunt Mei said, feeling Xiao Xian's broad shoulders and body temperature. It was strange that although she was not doing anything at the moment, Aunt Mei felt that Xiao Xian's weight in her heart increased faster than the day Xiao Xian helped her and broke her perception of durability.

"Well, why don't you do it yourself?" Xiao Xian glanced at Aunt Mei's trouser pocket and said.

"It's okay. We've seen each other before. Why are you still shy?" Aunt Mei turned her head slightly and leaned on Xiao Xian's shoulder and said, "I don't know why, but I feel like you seem to have changed a lot compared to before."

"It's normal for people to change after experiencing death."

No, you were just crying about your nephew, is it appropriate to talk about this now? Xiao Xian glanced at Aunt Mei who was leaning slightly on his shoulder. Is Tomie's charm really that great? How did he hold on for so long?
Anyway, helping to get the key would not cost Xiao Xian a thing, so he took the key directly from his trouser pocket. When taking the key, Aunt Mei deliberately squeezed her legs together, as if she wanted to clamp Xiao Xian's hand, but Xiao Xian moved quickly and was not clamped at all.

After taking out the key, Xiao Xian glanced at Aunt Mei. Aunt Mei looked around as if nothing had happened, as if it was just unintentional. However, her red cheeks and accelerated breathing betrayed her.
