Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Pretty uncle, I will be responsible for you! ...
“Zero!”
After tying up the eighth robber among the hostages, Rei Furuya's companions immediately rushed over, all of them showing expressions of concern, even if they expressed it in different ways.
Olga came back to her senses and touched it with her fingertips. It felt sticky.
Tsk, now my hands are covered with blood, not only the robber's brain matter, which I don't know if it's there.
Olga looked at Furuya Rei, who had already sat up on the ground with his elbows. The back of his white shirt was stained red, and countless broken glass pierced his skin through the fabric.
He was talking to his companions, and Olga guessed that his words were words of comfort. He still had a nonchalant smile on his face, and if Olga hadn't heard his secret gasps, she would have thought he didn't feel the pain.
Olga blinked and glanced at her companions. Soon, a look of obvious worry appeared on her expressionless face.
"I'm fine, I was just stabbed by the glass. It looked scary."
Furiya Rei explained it again to Olga in English.
Olga blinked when she heard that and was about to seek some more advice from her companions, but they had already gone to cooperate with the police who arrived late.
"How about you, are you okay?" Furiya Rei looked at Olga.
Olga shook her head.
There was an awkward silence, and Olga didn't know whether she should keep the worried expression on her face.
The ambulance hasn't arrived yet.
"Who are you?" Olga decided to drop her pretense. She looked at Furuya Rei silently, expressing her curiosity. "You suspected me, yet you saved me."
Furuya Rei seemed momentarily stunned by the question, then he slowly, slowly forced a smile. Olga felt that it was a little too glaring. It was clearly just a very slight expression...
He looked at Olga, but not at her, and Olga knew that he was not smiling at her but at something higher and more ethereal.
“This is what I should do.”
This is not a compliment, but a statement of fact.
Not to mention that Olga is just a child, even if the criminal is guilty of a heinous crime, Furuya Ling will do his best to save him. When conditions permit, crimes require legal judgment, not the justice of vigilante justice.
Olga followed Rei Furuya's gaze outside the convenience store, where his four companions were assisting the police in escorting the criminal into the police car.
Something in my mind suddenly became clear.
"You're a police officer."
Furiya Rei neither admitted nor refuted, he just smiled.
*
The ambulance arrived late, and although he was very reluctant, his companions still carried him into the ambulance.
Olga picked up some cosmetics scattered on the ground in the convenience store, quickly passed the adults blocking the way, and rushed into the ambulance.
The medical staff gave simple treatment to Jiang Gu Ling's wound in the ambulance, but more detailed bandaging had to wait until he arrived at the hospital.
After Rei Furuya's friends put him in the ambulance, they had to follow the police to take a statement. Before parting ways with the police car, Olga leaned against the ambulance window and took a deep look at the eighth robber.
He was a thin, middle-aged man with unremarkable features and a modest build. He was the kind of person you'd throw into a crowd and forget about once you saw him. At that moment, his face was filled with regret and fear.
"Why did you come here too?" Furiya Ling looked at Olga and said deliberately, "Aren't you going back to the police station with the police to find your parents?"
Olga turned her back to Rei Furuya and the medical staff in the car, huddled in a corner of the ambulance, not knowing what she was doing.
Olga remained unmoved after hearing what Rei Furuya said: "Because I have to be responsible for you."
Jianggu Ling: "..."
Medical staff: "..."
Although the conversation between Olga and Rei Furuya is purely in English, the doctor, as a senior intellectual, has a very good command of English.
So, the doctor looked hesitantly at the wooden-faced Rei Furuya, then at Olga, whose back was only visible, and thought over and over, not knowing whether he should speak or not.
Fūya Rei held his forehead with his hand and sighed helplessly: "You bastard..."
*
As they exited the ambulance, the accompanying doctor finally got a clear look at Olga's face, which had been facing away from them. It was... too ordinary. Aside from her red hair and green eyes, which still contrasted vividly, there was nothing else to her that stood out. Furuya Rei also glanced at Olga, raised an eyebrow, but said nothing.
The doctor on board watched Olga walk away and scratched his head. Strange, this little girl... does she look like this?
However, the doctor on board only caught a glimpse of Olga's face the moment she jumped into the ambulance, and his memory wasn't very clear. So, even though he felt a little skeptical now, he didn't delve into it.
*
The doctor used tweezers to remove the glass shards embedded in Rei's skin, one by one, then applied medicine and bandaged her. The entire process took a full four hours. So, Olga sat outside the clinic waiting for four hours.
Olga has always been a person with little patience, but this time she didn't feel the wait was long.
She is very interested in this guy named "Zero".
When Rei Furiya walked out of the clinic wrapped in bandages, Olga was sitting on a metal waiting chair, with her hands resting on the seat behind her, looking up at the fluorescent lights on the ceiling, humming a song and daydreaming.
Furiya Rei was dazed for a moment as he looked at Olga. At that moment, the phone in his trouser pocket vibrated slightly.
Rei Furuya's thoughts, which had been somewhat scattered due to the late hour, suddenly snapped back to focus. He lowered his head and entered the password to unlock his phone. A line of small black text stood out against a white background, catching his blue eyes.
This is a secret text message.
Fūya Rei's expression froze, his pupils suddenly constricting. He quickly shoved his phone back into his pocket. When he looked up again, his expression remained normal, full of the youthful spirit, yet tinged with the helplessness and disdain one would expect from a child.
"You—" As Olga turned her gaze away from the incandescent light, she caught a glimpse of Rei Furuya from the corner of her eye. She seemed about to say something, but after turning her head to look directly at Rei Furuya, she only uttered a strange, soft "Huh?"
"What's wrong?" With his entire upper body wrapped in bandages, Fūya Rei walked towards Olga.
Olga gave Furuya Rei another deep look and said, "I think you're a little weird."
As she spoke, she jumped down from the metal waiting chair and handed him the blood-stained shirt that belonged to Rei Furuya. "Nude//Running or horror-style outfit?"
Jianggu Ling: "..."
Fūya Ling felt that he was always helpless with this child - she always said some helpless words in a serious manner.
"Well - I think it won't be considered streaking after wrapping it with bandages." Furiya Rei thought about it and felt that walking on the street in a blood-stained shirt in the early morning was quite unethical.
Olga shrugged and said nothing more.
*
"You just said I was a little weird?" After walking out of the hospital, the surrounding environment suddenly became dark, with only some pale and weak street lights still working diligently and tirelessly.
Furuya Rei walked in front, and Olga followed him slowly, just one or two steps behind him.
"Um."
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt Olga's voice was fainter in the darkness, as if it was about to fade away. But he knew very well that the child was following him.
"What's strange about that?"
"I can't say."
Furiya Rei let out a muffled laugh: "You talk like a little adult."
The child behind him didn't say anything, but Rei Furuya had already pictured her rolling her eyes in his mind.
"Then why do you think I'm weird?"
After three seconds of silence, a faint voice, only that of a child, came from behind: "Girls' intuition."
Jianggu Ling: "..."
Furiya Rei shook his head with amusement and said nothing more.
"Now it's my turn to ask questions." Olga trotted over to Furuya Rei and walked side by side with him. She looked up at him and asked, "Are you going to let me follow you?"
Olga didn't think that Furiya Rei was someone who could easily succeed in scamming people.
Furuya Rei didn't answer directly: "Maybe I was just about to throw you away."
This time, Furuya Rei could clearly see the kid roll his eyes out of the corner of his eye: "Then walk faster."
Yes, if Furuya Rei really wanted to get rid of Olga and leave her behind, he would not have to slow down his pace so that she could catch up easily.
"I'm increasingly curious about your identity." Fūya Rei turned his head to look at Olga. Under the pale, dim streetlight, coupled with his deliberate tone, his aura seemed truly terrifying.
But Olga wasn't afraid at all, and just stared at him. Furuya Rei's current appearance was only enough to scare a child with a weak brain, and Olga herself thought she was fine.
Besides, after what happened at the convenience store, Olga had already made a judgment in her mind about Rei Furuya - a good person.
Since you are a good person, what is there to be afraid of?
Rei Furuya stood still under the streetlight, but Olga ran forward a few steps and turned back. She clasped her hands behind her back and faced Rei Furuya, chin raised high. "I thought you were going to take me to the police station?"
A good man, but rational enough. This was Olga's current understanding of Rei Furuya—he certainly didn't look like someone who would take a lost child home and seriously help find the parents.
The most efficient method is naturally to send the missing child to the police station to report the case.
