After playing around for a while, the little ones were dispersed, and obediently returned to the room to rest under the shout of grandma.
Although Chen Yu has just arrived, it is clear that his affinity with the children and helping them fight off inexplicable weirdos has won him a lot of trust.
So, uh...
It was natural to be arranged to sleep with the little ones——
After all, the size of this orphanage is not too big, even if you want to find other rooms, you can't find any.The children, including Xier, slept in the hall, and several small beds were arranged neatly on the floor.
"Why don't Sister Xier and Brother Chenyu need to sleep?"
——A certain wild and unruly Xiaozhi tried to argue with reason.
"After all, adults will go to bed later~"
Amidst the smug laughter of Dust Feather, the gray-haired little girl was "escorted" back to the room by her grandmother.
The children had already returned to the house under grandma's scolding, so at this moment, only Chen Yu and Xi'er were sitting in the courtyard under the eaves under the moonlight.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen Yu, without you, today would probably be..."
Xi'er sincerely thanked Chen Yu.
"It's nothing more than a little effort, and you can just call me Chen Yu."
Chen Yu waved his hand.
"Well, Chen Yu... But, you are not an ordinary wanderer, are you?"
Hillary said in a low voice.
"really……?"
Chen Yu didn't understand the meaning of Xi'er's words, although he was indeed not an ordinary person.
"Well... that, that's..."
The girl crossed her two fingers in front of her chest, and said with some embarrassment.
"Actually, when I saw you unconscious on the grass in the downtown area today, for some reason, I always felt that I couldn't leave you alone, so I waited there for a long time.
"It may be strange to say that...but I always feel that I seem to...have seen you. Chen Yu, have you seen me before?"
"Well... In a sense, I have indeed... seen it."
Chen Yu pondered.
After all, whether in the sense of being the Sixth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Death, or as the "past life" of the pair of black and white twins, he knew something about Xier in front of him.
Although Xier in this life and the pair of Xier in the future can only be regarded as a similar flower, they do have many similarities.
Not only are they almost identical in appearance, but also their gentle gestures can be said to be exactly the same.
"Well, that is to say, our meeting was a fate."
The girl folded her hands on her chest and lowered her head slightly.
"Fate...well, indeed, if I say that I am a knight sent by heaven to protect you, would you believe me?"
Dust Feather joked.
"really?"
The girl blinked her eyes, obviously believing what Chen Yu said.
"Ahem, of course not...uh... just take it as it is."
Originally, it was just casual talk, but seeing the girl's expression, Chen Yu changed his mind and continued.
Why is this pure girl the same as the little Xilin back then, she believed whatever he said...
However, since he is a knight sent by the heavens, it is normal for him to know some magical magic.
Chen Yu stretched out his hand, and the Honkai energy condensed in his hand. Under the shining of the moonlight, a small seed appeared in his hand, and it grew rapidly and became bigger, blooming into a beautiful flower. white flowers.
"Ah, this is..."
"Take this with you, Xier, if you are in danger, just crush it, and I will help you."
Chen Yu handed the flower to the girl beside her.
It was an ornament constructed with the power of the Herrscher of the Sky, which could convey the wearer's position to Chen Yu. In short, it was a simple positioning device.
Since the power of the Herrscher of the Sky can make the Archon's Spear, of course it can also make some other gadgets.
Chen Yu can also use this flower as a starting point to open an archon gate, allowing him to return to Xi'er immediately no matter how far he is away.
"...Are you going out tonight?"
Xier asked with some concern.
Such a move obviously meant that Chen Yu would not spend the night here tonight.
"There is an old saying in my hometown that if you cut the grass, you have to get rid of the roots, otherwise there will be endless troubles. It's nothing, just go back when you go."
"...Is it because of those people in the evening?"
After hesitating for a moment, Xier asked in a low voice.
"Ah."
There was no need for him to hide this from Xi'er.
He spared that middle-aged man's life. On the one hand, it was not easy to kill people in front of the children, and on the other hand... it was also to pass him and uproot the guys behind him.
The imprint left on that man's body had already shown Chen Yu his position, and the night was dark and windy, and it was a good time to do it.
"That……"
After all, she is a girl living in troubled times, Xi'er did not stop Chen Yu's behavior, she just gently put her hand on Chen Yu's chest.
"May you come back safely."
"this is……"
"It's a kind of etiquette in my hometown, um... it's a blessing to those who travel."
The girl blinked playfully, and then, a trace of tiredness climbed into her heart.
"Hmm...I want to go to bed."
"Go to sleep now."
Dust Feather said softly.
"Um……"
After watching the girl return to the house, Chen Yu just stood up slowly, stretched a little, and then jumped out of the yard briskly, heading towards the downtown in the distance.
At night in the downtown area, the lights are still full of feasting and brilliance, which is very different from the remote and quiet orphanage.
Chen Yu quickly shuttled between the buildings, while thinking about the motives of those people.
Why did this group of people fall in love with Xi'er in this small remote sanatorium?
It would be nice if the answer was as simple as a desire for a girl's beauty, but obviously, that's not the answer.
After all, those guys even wore pistols on their bodies. Obviously, they came prepared.
They came for Xi'er, or in other words, for the children in this orphanage.
What is so special about them?
Although the time was short, Chen Yu already had a general understanding through Xier.
All orphans are survivors left behind after some unknown disaster, whether Xier or those who are still young.
Those so-called "unknown disasters" naturally have nothing to hide in the eyes of Chen Yu who knows the truth behind them-the disaster of Houkai.
And healthy survivors like them mean that they have a certain degree of resistance to Houkai energy.
Such an existence, in the eyes of some people... is probably a treasure enough to make people flock to.
Chapter 13
I'm the boss
Probably—just like what happened to Sirin, people with Houkai adaptability will not get happiness because of this innate talent, but will suffer from the torture of "the same kind" because of it.
Perhaps, some people will voluntarily become such experiments, but in the pursuit of fighting against Honkai, there will always be some people who impose their goals on innocent people and try to make them forced victims.
And this is not what Chen Yu likes to do.
"...No matter what era it is, there are always some things that will never change."
Chen Yu finished his shuttle between downtown and stood in front of a certain magnificent hotel.
After all, in this era, there is a large-scale organization [Flame Chasing Moth] that fights against Houkai. Although I don’t know how far their current detection level of Houkai has developed, but in order to avoid unnecessary troubles, Chen Yu did not make a big effort. Scale use of the power of the empty rational type, but came here on foot.
He could feel that the place where the middle-aged man returned was here, on the high floor of the hotel.
Then, the next thing is very simple.
For these ordinary people, Chen Yu itself is a superhuman existence, even without using any power related to space, it is easy to clean them up.
5 minutes later.
The assassination technique that Bronya once taught him is more handy now, Chen Yu let go of his hand, causing the bodyguard guarding the door to fall to the ground, and at the same time took out a pistol from his pocket.
Pushing open the door and walking all the way forward, Chen Yu shot at the back of the facing wooden door all the way, hitting the vital point before the opponent, sending away two bodyguards.
Perspective, self-aiming, all in one go, small openings are not considered openings.
Behind the wooden door was another thicker iron door. Chen Yu moved his finger, and this heavy door opened to both sides naturally.
What can be seen head-on, a man who can be seen at a glance with a rich face, from the clothes and the attitude of being served by the people around him, must be their boss.
He closed his eyes, covered his eyes with two slices of cucumber, and covered his ears with earphones, from which Eden's singing could be faintly heard.
And beside him, two thinly clothed women were serving him with all their might, either pinching his shoulders or rubbing his legs.
This extravagant gesture of enjoyment made him unaware of Chen Yu who had easily entered here all the way, Chen Yu waved the pistol in his hand, signaling the two maids who had noticed him to back down.
The two maids hurriedly got up and left tremblingly, stepping on the bloody ground behind Chen Yu and leaving.
These two maids are just ordinary laborers here, there is no need for Chen Yu to hurt the innocent, and before they spread the matter, Chen Yu still has enough time to slowly torture and question the leader.
Eden's singing still slowly came out of the man's earphones, and the man hummed and swayed slowly to the melody, even though Chen Yu had already walked in front of him, he still didn't notice it, completely intoxicated in his own world.
"...It really looks like you're enjoying it."
Chen Yu took out two daggers from behind those bodyguards who fell on the ground, and then, with the greatest strength, accurately inserted them into the man's palms.
The steel dagger pierced through the flesh easily, nailing the opponent's hands to the luxurious wooden chair like two nails.
The severe pain finally made the man realize that something was wrong. He suddenly stood up, dripping with sweat, and opened his mouth wide, as if wanting to vent the pain by roaring, but because the pain came too suddenly and It was so intense that he couldn't even make a sound.
His hands tried to struggle, but they were firmly held down by the dagger, unable to move at all.
"Who are you……"
The man barely managed to squeeze out a few words from his mouth.
"Well... I am..."
Chen Yu pondered for a while.
Here, it is better to treat the person with the way of the person.
"...I am the [Boss] of Twilight Street."
Chen Yu nodded lightly, and a dagger floating in the air suddenly fell, piercing the man's thigh, causing his pain to intensify again.
"boss……"
"You should know that the place going east from here is my territory."
Dust Feather narrowed his eyes.
"In such a place so close to my territory, using my name to bluff and deceive... You have already prepared."
He held both hands on the dagger that nailed the opponent's hands, and with a little force, the dagger began to spin.
"Uh-ah-!"
