"It feels great to use me as a gun, right?!" Every time Xiao Han asked a question, Xiao Lei lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly.
The woman closed her eyes in pain, sighed softly, and coughed violently again.
"Tell me." Lu Shiyan finally spoke. His voice was not loud, but it carried an irresistible pressure. "What is your purpose? Or, who instructed you?"
Xiao Lei raised his head suddenly, his eyes bloodshot, mixed with fear and despair, and suddenly screamed: "No one! I volunteered!"
"My mother is sick and needs medicine! The base doesn't care at all! She can't hold on any longer!"
"If the Scorpion people don't give us good things, others will just take them!"
So that's how it is. Su Wan felt a little depressed. Such a young child was forced to this extent.
Lu Shiyan had a blank expression on his face: "Did you arrange that scene on the street corner as well?"
Xiao Lei gritted his teeth and nodded, his voice choking: "I want you to...sympathize with me more...I'm afraid that if you leave, no one will take care of us."
Su Wan asked: "Why choose Xiao Han?"
Xiao Lei quickly glanced at Lu Shiyan with obvious fear, then turned to Xiao Han: "The day you came to the base, I saw Pan Yong recruiting you, and I knew you must be very powerful. I... I wanted to control that big brother. But he... he is too strong, I can't see through him, like a fog! If I have the slightest idea, he may crush me to death immediately! By then, my mother and I will be finished!"
"So... I can only choose you..."
Xiao Han: “…”
So I'm a soft persimmon, easy to bully, right?! He was so angry that veins on his forehead were throbbing, and he wanted to hang this little bastard up and beat him! "What exactly is your ability?!"
Xiao Lei lowered his head and said in a faint voice: "I don't know... my eyes... can make others listen to me and do what I want them to do."
He glanced at Xiao Han secretly: "Just like in the square, I looked at you and thought to myself, 'Help me', and you... rushed over."
Xiao Han almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Is it that simple? He, a master of superpowers, was "set up" by a little brat with his eyes? !
Su Wan's mind was moved. Psychic system? Or some unknown control ability? If this ability is used well... it is simply a magical skill!
I'm so envious of people with supernatural powers...
Lu Shiyan's gaze swept across Xiaolei's immature but determined face, and finally fell on his eyes that were now full of anxiety.
Mental suggestion? Will interference? This kid's ability is amazing!
How could Xiao Han, this fierce tiger, be led by the nose without knowing it! If he were to be trained...
"How many times have you used it on me?!" Veins on Xiao Han's forehead were throbbing, and he almost squeezed out these words from between his teeth. He wished he could strangle this brat to death on the spot.
Xiao Lei was so scared that he shivered and counted on his fingers: "Once in the square, once at the alley entrance, and... just now when you came in, I wanted you to... not be so fierce..."
Xiao Han: "..." Shit! He felt like an idiot! His worldview was shattered!
Lu Shiyan raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at Xiao Lei, then turned to Xiao Han. His eyes were calm, but they made Xiao Han feel cold down his spine.
"What are you looking at me for!" Xiao Han instantly exploded, "This little bastard is too sinister, it's hard to guard against him!"
Su Wan tried to hold back her laughter, her shoulders shrugged slightly. Xiao Han, that idiot, was influenced again.
She cleared her throat, breaking the awkward atmosphere, and gently said to Xiao Lei: "Xiao Lei, besides us, does anyone else know about your ability?"
Xiao Lei shook his head, his voice trembling: "No more. My mother only knows that I can make others treat us better and bully us less."
“Then your mother’s illness…” Su Wan looked at the woman standing against the wall who was coughing so hard that she was about to fall apart, and his heart sank.
Xiao Lei's eyes instantly turned red, and he cried, "The doctor said that he needs a lot of precious medicines, which are not available at the base! We don't have any contribution points..."
Su Wan sighed. No matter how extraordinary this child's abilities were, he was still a child after all. He was so eager to save his mother that he had no choice but to take the risk.
She asked, "When you influence others, will they notice it? Will they remember it afterwards?"
Xiao Lei and Su Wan both looked at Xiao Han, and Lu Shiyan also looked over.
Xiao Han's face turned red and white. In the square, he had indeed seen Xiao Lei's look and rushed forward in a fit of passion. Afterwards, he thought he was full of justice! That time at the alley, he was also full of sympathy!
"...No, I don't have any special feeling." Xiao Han admitted frustratedly, "A thought suddenly popped up in my mind, and I felt that I had to do that. It was very strong!"
"Tsk," Su Wan smacked her lips, "Silent and hard to guard against. Xiaolei, what's your full name?"
Xiao Lei answered timidly: "Mo Lei."
Mo Lei? Su Wan frowned. This name was not familiar to her in the book. It seemed that the plot had gone completely haywire.
Lu Shiyan turned his gaze to the woman: "What's the disease?"
The woman looked up, her eyes blurred with tears, her voice hoarse: "Radiation sickness...late stage..."
Radiation sickness!
The two words fell like a huge rock, and Su Wan and Xiao Han's breathing stagnated! The terminal illness of the end of the world, in the late stage, is waiting for death!
"Is there a treatment center in the base?" Su Wan asked anxiously.
The woman smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Yes, but that is for the 'big shots'. We... don't even have the qualifications to get close to them." She burst into tears and trembled like a sieve.
Mo Lei is indeed a man of deep thoughts, but his motives cannot be blamed.
"What do you want?" Lu Shiyan asked, his voice calm.
Mo Lei raised his head suddenly, a strong desire to survive bursting out of his eyes, and he knelt down heavily with a "thump", knocking his forehead to the ground in front of Lu Shiyan and Su Wan!
"Please, brothers and sisters, save my mother!"
"As long as you can save my mother, my life will belong to you! I will work like a slave to repay you in my next life!"
Lu Shiyan's gaze wandered between Xiaolei and his mother. The air in the tent seemed to freeze, leaving only the woman's suppressed breathing and Xiaolei's slight sobs.
"You know your illness very well." Lu Shiyan's voice was calm and almost cold, and he said directly to the woman, "It's the late stage of radiation sickness. Even if you can find the treatment center of those so-called 'big shots', there is no way to save you."
The woman burst into tears, but a trace of relief appeared on her face. She grabbed Su Wan's hand fiercely, digging her nails deep into it: "I know... I can't survive... Please, take Xiao Lei away and give him a chance to live... He is still young..."
Mo Lei knelt on the ground, his small body trembling violently. He looked at Lu Shiyan with tearful eyes and his lips trembling.
"Following us is not just for a living." Lu Shiyan looked down at Mo Lei as if he was examining an object. "Your life will be mine from now on. Your abilities can only be used by me. Can you do it?"
A trace of confusion flashed across Xiao Lei's eyes, which was then replaced by a strong desire to survive. He knocked his head heavily, and his forehead hit the hard ground with a dull "dong" sound.
"I can do it! As long as it can save my mother...as long as I can survive, I'm willing to do anything!" His voice was filled with tears.
"My mother... " Xiao Lei choked and looked at his mother, his eyes full of reluctance and pain.
The woman smiled weakly and stretched out her hand to touch her son's head: "Xiao Lei, Mom is fine... Mom is satisfied to see you alive and well..." Her voice became lower and lower, and her breathing became more and more rapid.
Su Wan's heart tightened, and he quickly felt her pulse, which was extremely weak and almost unfeeling.
"Lu Shiyan..." Su Wan looked at Lu Shiyan with a hint of questioning and pity in her eyes.
