Chapter 52 "This city is sick."



Su Ming'an paused slightly. He saw several men running towards the alley. They had fierce faces and strong build.

The big man in the lead frowned, walked forward and tried to pull the girl out.

"Don't come over here again." Su Mingan said.

"Don't meddle in other people's business! I'm her father, she has to go wherever I tell her to go!" The man glared at him fiercely.

"She is your daughter, but she is also an independent person. She is not a resource, and she doesn't want to be reformed. Didn't you hear me?" Su Ming'an said.

"Bah! You young brat, what do you know!" The man sneered and rolled up his sleeves: "I have raised her for so many years just to send her to the emperor. Otherwise, what's the use of a money-losing piece of shit? This is my family affair, don't get involved! Get out of my way!"

The man stretched out his big hand and tried to pull the girl out.

Su Mingan put his arm around his shoulder.

"Don't touch me. I won't change my mind even if you put your arm around my shoulder..." The man's eyes lost their luster in an instant.

Su Mingan withdrew his hand that had touched the man's neck, took off his gloves with some disgust, and slammed them on the corpse's face with a "pa" sound.

When the people behind saw this, they were so scared that they pissed their pants and ran away.

Su Mingan glanced at the girl and said, "Okay, now you don't have to be transformed. Where do you want to go?"

She had nowhere to go, and once Su Ming'an left, she would be handed over by passers-by in exchange for money.

Bai Xiong's policy of "as long as you hand over your relatives, you can get money" has turned humans into pathetic creatures who only know how to pursue desires.

"Why did Dad hit me? Why did he pull my hair? Why did he call me a 'money-loser'? Dad wanted to hand me over to complete some 'white male replacement plan'. I don't understand..." There was no sadness in the girl's eyes, just confusion:

"I tried hard to please him, washing his feet and massaging his back, but he only made me work every day and handed me over for money... Am I not his child? Why does everyone look at me as a resource?"

The girl has always felt very confused.

No matter how hard she tried, she seemed to be born to lose to her younger brother - just because he was the younger brother. So when the family was short of money, her father would choose to give her to Neicheng instead of her younger brother.

She always had one less piece of bread than her brother. She could only wear clothes that he didn't want. He could read and write, but she could only stay at home and do housework, and then be sold...

Su Mingan vaguely realized that this copy was a heavy story: "This city is sick, I will change it."

"I...I've seen you." The girl suddenly said this.

Su Mingan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"I live in the outer city. One time, the rebels were giving a secret speech underground, and I accidentally saw it." The girl said, "At that time, I saw you were the one giving a speech on the podium, and everyone was listening to you - you are the leader of the rebels, right?"

"Yeah." Su Mingan did not deny it.

“Ding Dong!”

He heard the system prompt.

[Main quest (first round): "Go to Street 39 in the outer city" has been completed, and 20 points have been obtained. ]

[Accept the main mission (Second Ring): Protect "Alisa" from death within three days.]

"Your name is Alisa?" he asked the girl.

"Yes. My name is Alisa, the free and independent Alisa." said the girl.

...Free and independent Alisa? Her way of introducing herself is really unique.

"Big brother, you give me a very familiar feeling. Have we known each other before, in a very familiar way?" the girl asked again.

Su Mingan shook his head: "This is the first time I see you."

Eliza stared at him blankly with her head tilted. Her reflection in the puddle of water sparkled brightly with the neon lights, covered with a layer of crystal mist.

In her eyes, the outline of the young man in front of her was also coated with a layer of light. The light softened his cold outline, and even the ends of his hair were painted with bright colors.

He seemed... like a ray of light.

"Do you want to go with me?" she heard Su Mingan ask.

"I..." She opened her mouth, but was afraid to speak. She had always believed that she was a burden. He was the leader of the revolutionary army, so how could she disturb him?

But he held out his hand to her.

Very gently, very softly, he stroked her messy hair that looked like dry grass, and stroked her head. His palms were warm, as if the sun was very close to her.

No one treated her so gently, as if the sunlight was pressing down on the earth from the dome.

"Can I..." She choked up: "Can I really go with you?"

She had read in a storybook that if one felt warmth both physically and mentally when touching someone, then that was "love."

This one is really warm to the touch.

"Come with me." Su Mingan said, "Take me to the camp where the speech was held."

Alisa nodded heavily.

As they walked down the street, she suddenly said, "I'm sorry."

Su Mingan wondered: "Why do you have to say sorry?"

"I'll cause you trouble."

Su Mingan said: "Why do you say that?"

"I am so selfish. I knew I was a burden, but I still wanted to go with you. Everyone said that the only value of my existence is to make money. If I have any other dreams, such as wanting to find love, it is just a foolish dream."

“They are sick.”

"Thank you, really...thank you."

It started to rain.

The heavy rain was particularly eerie, lightning split the air in half, and the shadow of the girl was reflected in the rain, fragile and tiny. Her clear voice came through the heavy rain, full of "I'm sorry".
