This time in the maze in the forest, Witt quickly found the clue to the breakthrough, that is the fragrance of evening flowers coming from bursts—this fragrance of flowers comes from a fixed direction, and when it traces away, it becomes more intense when the direction is correct. The shooter's vision, hearing, and smell are all very sensitive, which made it easy for him to determine the source of the fragrance, so he concentrated his mind and searched for the trace.
While smelling the fragrance to find the way in the forest, he had a few rounds of gun battles with the chasing opponent. Witt killed five more shadows through the cover of the forest and flexible positioning.
After fleeing while fighting for about an hour, he suddenly heard the sound of water coming from the front, and he felt a burst of joy. He quickened his pace, rushed out of the sheltered bushes, and a sparkling lake of oasis appeared in sight. , and, just by the lake, stood a little boy about six or seven years old wearing a white jumpsuit popular in the original world, with his back facing him, and his red hair was particularly eye-catching.
Seeing this back, Witt already had a premonition. He didn't take a few steps forward, the little boy turned around on his own - it looked like he was six years old.
Witt breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this must be a clue, so he asked, "What are you doing here?"
The little boy replied, "I'll wait for you here."
"If you have anything to say, say it quickly, there are many people chasing after me." Witt responded that this series of exhausting escapes had made him quite numb, and he had no energy to make any emotional fluctuations. There was no expression on his face when he said this.
Unexpectedly, the little boy stepped forward and hugged him: "I'm afraid." He said, "I'm standing here alone, no one really understands and cares about me, even if I'm in the desert, no one will come Find me, save me out... I know that you are the only one who comes back, so I have been waiting...waiting, waiting, waiting for a century, you... finally came."
"Wait for me?" Witt's heart tightened slightly, but was quickly erased by fatigue and numbness, "I probably can't help you, we can only rely on ourselves." He lowered his head and said truthfully what was in his heart .
"No, if you can't save me, I will die here alone..." the little boy hugged him tighter, and murmured, "Since I was born, I have not been No matter what anyone pays attention to, my parents are not conspicuous in the family system, and the IQ test shows mediocrity every time, but the achievements of my parents and personal IQ are the factors that the family values. Soon, I was put into the unattended group by the family. List. Every family gathering is as small as a speck of dust, no one is really talking to me, and no one really wants to understand my thoughts, because they all think I am mediocre and incompetent, those snobbish relatives, How can I waste a little bit of time on me? People outside the family only see the brilliance and wealth of the Lei family, and they are all taking advantage of it without sincerity. Do you still remember the kidnapping case when you were six years old? Didn't the kidnapper say it clearly - the children of your Lei family are symbols of money in the eyes of outsiders, no one will hold back... I'm so scared, Witt, I'm so lonely... I really So lonely."
These words hit Witt's heart, but he forcibly took the little boy's hands away from his body, and said coldly: "Who is not alone? Just get used to it."
"But, but you can stay by my side, we can depend on each other..." the little boy begged him, "Only you can understand me, can you stay with me? I know you must be reluctant to abandon me. "
Wit frowned and hesitated for a second, and asked, "Stay here? There are pursuers everywhere here, and they may chase us at any time and kill us."
"No, it won't happen if I'm here." The little boy promised, "As long as I'm by your side, those things won't hurt you. Listen, are those footsteps gone? There are only birds and flowers here , colorful lakes, really beautiful and cozy. And...we won't be alone anymore, at least, we still have each other, don't we?"
Witt looked at the boy expressionlessly, and before he could say an answer, a group of men in black suddenly came out from all directions... Each of them was wearing the same black robe as Witt, and the same lightning mask , holding the evolved gun "Thunderbolt" in his hand, looking like a whole clone army.
Witt's heart tightened, and he immediately entered the state of preparation, although he knew that if the war really started at this moment, there might only be a dead end.
At this time, the little boy said again: "Don't worry, I told you, as long as you are by my side, they won't attack you."
Witt looked around nervously, and sure enough, as the child said, although these countless men in black surrounded him, they seemed to be frozen in place, all maintaining a posture, motionless.
He asked again for confirmation: "So, as long as you are by my side, I am safe, whether it is in this oasis or outside this oasis?"
