Chapter 47: Sinking Sea (14)
There was really nothing to talk about between her and him.
Hatred, resentment, and pursuit.
This was the relationship between them.
So Eleanor's solution was also very simple, just make sure he couldn't cause any trouble. If he caused any chaos, she would be very upset.
"Be patient." Eleanor pulled the long chain to buckle onto his handcuffs. His abilities were once again imprisoned. Without thinking too much, he knew who had done it. Fran Gu tilted his head and listened to her with a lazy look, "Don't leave this door if you don't want to die."
"I won't do anything to you for now." Eleanor let go of her hand. She was still the same as before. She was the one in control, and her movements and tone were always arrogant.
There would be no unexpected changes.
"So be quiet."
Eleanor didn't plan to stay any longer. She was about to leave when Fran Gu suddenly said, "If your plan goes well, the looters will leave, and so will I."
"I will tell 'Return to One' what you have hidden, and then kill you with my own hands."
"It doesn't matter even if that's the case?"
Eleanor's reaction was indifferent. She pretended to think, and her eyes fell on Fran Gu very slowly. "Maybe I will feel angry, but more ridiculous. After all, isn't this a game between the two of us, Mr. Fran Gu?"
"It's really disappointing. In this case, even if I lose, You have only brought down a downtrodden character."
Franco has always been obsessed with this. What he pursues is destruction. He wants to kill the unattainable powerful while they are still enjoying the glory. It is like a performance that is forcibly frozen at the climax. The interference of outsiders will only give cheap fun.
He will not do that.
If he violates it, it is very simple.
Eleanor suddenly turned back. Without saying a word, she grabbed the chain and pulled it up tight. The unexpected attack was enough to strangle the wrist, but she just showed indifference and contempt, "In order to prevent things from getting boring, how about we make a one-sided deal?"
She leaned closer and stared at the prey in front of her that seemed to be at her mercy, "It's just adding something new to your mind, relax."
"I don't think you are that stupid, otherwise you can ask me to shut up for you."
Eleanor withdrew her gaze in annoyance. She did not come back this time. After asking about the movements of the Observer Special, she hurried to the rooftop. It was chaos all the way. The long-suppressed dissatisfaction even erupted into hysterical anger.
The criminals were so excited that they ran away. The prison guards were cautious and could not use guns and superpowers, which could easily cause mass casualties. However, there were too many people rioting tonight. If a new accident happened and the news got out, it would be difficult to deal with it.
"Does the superior have any new instructions?"
"Report! There is no reply yet!"
The prison captain who rushed to control the situation signaled them not to act rashly. The noisy fighting not far away suddenly quieted down, and Youdao walked straight around the chaotic area. He was walking towards them, leading a huge crowd.
The captain of the prison police frowned, but the silent confrontation was strangled before it even began. Punishment had stood aside without him knowing when. He nodded to the person beside him, "You take people to control the order in other areas, and I will handle this."
He looked directly at the black goat opposite, his eyes deepened, "Where is Eleanor?"
"I'm sorry, I can't reveal the whereabouts of the teacher."
"Ha... You are really her good student."
When the ground shook, the tower administrator's calm expression suddenly changed. Everything was unexpected. Even the black goat was surprised. How could such a strange aura appear here?
The walls and handrails shook in unison, emitting a muffled sound that could not bear the weight, swirling and reverberating in the wide corridors layer by layer, vaguely mixed with the tones of rolling waves, accompanied by countless strange screams. The weirdness of the carnival was celebrating the new life.
"That special agent is in Houhai." After clearing away the weirdness around him, Sin walked to the young man with an unchanged expression, "It's approaching here, and seems to be going ashore."
Sin didn't seem to worry. He stared at the black goat and asked, "0492 is not in the Judgment Tower, where did she go?"
"No."
Unexpectedly, the black goat answered Sin's question. He said, "Of course she is here, but you didn't notice it."
Sin reacted quickly. He lowered his head slightly, "I'll go find 0492, you stabilize the situation here." He disappeared again as soon as he finished speaking.
Punishment realized something and his pupils shrank slightly. He was about to leave with Sin regardless of the chaotic situation, but suddenly he felt unable to move. He looked over impatiently, and the intertwined black shadows tightly bound his legs.
He remembered the ability of the black goat and laughed angrily, "You people who trace the source like to meddle in other people's business so much?"
"Get out of here."
"Sorry." The black goat replied to him gently, "This is the teacher's order, I will not disobey."
Night watch. Punishment almost gritted his teeth. He was crazy to take this gamble, and he shouldn't have believed her.
The wet swamp stretched out, and the surface was covered with dark green plants. The plants were growing rapidly. The thin and weak roots easily pierced through the chest of a criminal, and turned a brighter red under the blood.
At the origin of the spread, the shadowed figure completely changed. He lowered his eyes, reflecting indifference.
The uniform was decent and noble, and the youthfulness that was still left was replaced by maturity in an instant. This dark and deep swamp was also the color of his eyes, waiting to be filled with new colors.
"Don't get in the way." His voice was low and casual, warning the daring criminal, "Even if your teacher is here, I will not show mercy."
What a bullshit rule, since they have to stand in his way, just kill them all.
The black goat did not give up. He looked back at the deputy administrator of the tower, who looked like an adult he had never seen before. It was almost the same as what the teacher said. It looked like things were going to get very troublesome.
But he would not back down.
"Those weirdos are all looking for the newly born special class."
The interior of the Judgment Tower was in chaos, and the rooftop was out of place. Eleanor looked into the distance, at the junction of the sky and the sea, the huge black cocoon seemed to want to swallow up the bright moon in the sky. She also saw that a crack had been torn on the back of the cocoon.
The special class was not inside, and the hatching was complete.
"Several monsters have found it." The observer was far away from Zhuwang but was more nervous than her, "Is it okay?"
The monsters have a suitable survival system inside. The mature special ones make predators helpless, but they are extremely fragile in the early stages and will die if they are not careful. Therefore, once the special ones are born, all the monsters will rush to protect them at all costs.
Eleanor leisurely admired the scenery, "There's nothing I can do if there's a problem. You won't let me go, so I'll just have to wait."
"But what if I really break the rules? Will I be wiped out?"
"...That's not the case."
"Ah, why didn't you say so earlier." Eleanor took a step forward and stepped on the edge of the roof, ready to jump down. She looked so impatient that the observer was almost scared to death on the spot, "No, no, no, don't! If you go, I'll be finished!!"
"Then tell me."
She calmly withdrew her foot and asked him as if nothing had happened, "If I violate what you said and disrupt the 'plot' that has been set, what will be the punishment? Will it involve the people around me?"
"If you want to ask me something, why don't you just ask me directly? Why are you scaring me? I'm not telling you!" The observer's breath was stuck in his throat, and he almost choked himself.
He took a few deep breaths to calm down, and then he explained to Eleanor: "Doing this will cause you to be classified as an 'unstable factor'. Everything in our world will be against you, which is equivalent to losing all your 'luck'."
"And your popularity will be deducted a lot!" The observer suddenly became excited. He felt heartbroken when he thought that the abundant amount in the account would be cleared overnight, "So absolutely not!"
Eleanor: "..."
I always feel that the latter sentence is the key point.
"0492."
The familiar voice drifted to her ears along the long wind, but Eleanor did not react. She looked at the overly gloomy night sky, and finally closed her eyes or turned around, she stared at him calmly.
No one spoke.
But she could feel that the eyes of the man opposite her were as gentle as usual. After a long time, he said: "No wonder the punishment has been preventing me from seeing you."
"Watching the night." He called her in a low voice.
"What are you doing here?"
Eleanor looked at him and walked towards him step by step. Her tone was the same as usual, but it seemed a little contradictory: "I'm waiting for you, because I want to tell you something."
In fact, she herself felt strange, why did she have to ask it out loud.
Even if she agreed to the sin, it didn't matter if she kept silent.
He doesn't remember anything now. He doesn't need to know those things, nor will he know about her broken promise.
I hope he lives in ignorance. Is this wish selfish?
"Do you want to hear it? About your past."
Although he asked it before the vigil, Sin didn't just perfunctorily ask, he thought seriously for a moment, "Actually, I don't really feel it... I think it doesn't matter whether I know or not."
"Did I say something to you before?"
Sin really understood her. He didn't need Eleanor to say anything more, he could find the answer himself, "You look uneasy."
"I don't know what I said to you at that time, but you seem to be troubled by it." Sin's eyes are always so gentle and calm, as if they will never be affected by anything, "You've had a hard time during this period."
He can always make her abandon all decisions with just one sentence.
"Will you stay here forever?"
"I will if you need me to."
"I don't want you to die."
"Me neither."
Eleanor finally took out the file bag and handed it to him. She couldn't find her voice for a moment.
"Open this. Most of the things are recorded here, including the memories you lost and the Federal Research Institute."
"Then I will tell you what is not recorded."
