In the afternoon, after the sumptuous lunch that Alice had prepared to comfort her friends, Laura calculated how much exercise she had to do to lose the calories from the food while waiting for Benjamin's 'return'.
Benjamin was lying on the circle in the warehouse, not knowing what he was thinking, and there seemed to be a smile on his face.
The Barton family's limousine stopped at the door of the Grand House, coming to take Laura back.
Under Old Hank's frown, the serious-faced butler treated the girl who was determined not to leave like this.
"Watch the Beavers vs. Sea Lions game and you'll get extracurricular activity credit. Sister, you'll need those credits if you don't want to go to first grade twice."
Laura was speechless and got into the car dejectedly. Old Hank hunched his back, moved the out-of-business sign in front of the door, and placed it in the middle of the road entering Grand House Road, then came back and closed the green-black door. Well, he is a weird old man.
The car in the Barton family's limo kicked up dust on the gravel road, turned onto Highway 7, and headed toward Barton's North District. The butler, who always looked serious, estimated the road conditions, gave up the idea of sending Laura back to school, and instructed the driver to drive directly to Fenway Park.
…
There is no opportunity to play cheerleading, and there is no chance for his brother to play on the court. Laura sat in the friendly chair at Reiput High School solely for the credit.
When the countdown under the scoreboard above the center of the stadium cleared, Laura was inspired by the peers around her, jumping up and down in her seat and cheering.
"Beaver! Raptor! Beaver! Raptor!..." Laura waved the colored ball in her hand and temporarily forgot her troubles. Well, this 'temporarily' disappeared and began to appear amidst everyone's cheers. "Connor "When the name comes up!"
The Beaver players on the field were running jubilantly. Like the last time, they swarmed towards their quarterback and surrounded Connor in the center. Then someone didn't know who lifted Connor's butt. Connor was lifted to the Half empty!
"Connor! Connor!..." The energetic guys carried their captain, waved their fists in the air, and led the audience to cheer!
The game commentators followed the enthusiasm of the crowd in the stadium. The excited commentators shouted in front of the microphone: "Connor! Connor Herman! The captain of the Beavers! The star of the whole game!"
"Oh my gosh, who knew! William Herman's son is actually a gifted son!"
"This year's league is destined to surprise us! It seems that old Herman can get rid of the scandal of 'donating a quarterback' to his son!"
"This is the truth! Haha! In addition to last week's game, this kid has already shown us his abilities! I told you last week, this kid must have a future!"
"Yes, yes! You are right! I just want to say that I am a loyal user of 'Herman' (car brand)! My old car has been with me for twenty years!"
"You are so cunning! I am also loyal to 'Herman'..."
When the answer turned into flattery, Laura pushed aside the crowd and left the stands. She was going to the players' lounge to settle accounts with Connor for her brother!
Well, Laura heard more than what she gave Alice last night. For example, she heard that the real reason why her brother Kyle gave up football was because Connor transferred Kyle to a place where he was least valued! For example, Connor once provoked his brother before the game!
But she didn't tell Alice this, because in her mind, Alice was going to apply to come to Repute. She has almost figured out her friend's personality, and she doesn't want Alice to think that high school is a place of intrigue!
This time, Lola had no excuse for the players' family members. Even with the surname Barton, the stout staff member still shook his head and pushed her and a group of crazy fans out of the lounge door, leaving space for the reporters who were waiting. .
"Ah! I'm sorry!" Laura knocked off a woman's handbag while retreating. Laura looked at the woman wearing an Indian-style headscarf behind her, apologized quickly, knelt down, picked up the handbag, and returned it to her.
"It's okay." The woman smiled, but her face didn't look good. With high cheekbones and deep eye sockets, the outlines of Indians are darker than those of ordinary Federation people, especially women. Therefore, once you are a little tired and don’t use makeup to modify it, you will give people a haggard look, Ellie Silk is such an example.
Laura looked around. In this place occupied by young people, it was strange to see such a woman in her fifties. But she didn't think much, and protected the woman's side in the crowded crowd.
"Thank you." The woman noticed that the girl next to her was helping her move out of the station, and smiled gratefully at the girl: "I heard what you said to the staff just now, you are looking for Connor, you are his fan ?"
Laura shook her head in frustration. She could already hear people around her shouting Connor's name: "I'm not, I'm here to settle accounts with him!"
The woman said oh, her eyes were a little dim, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Under the calls of fans and reporters outside the lounge, the Beavers players finally walked out of the lounge, and the one at the front was naturally 'Connor'! The crowd pushed and pushed again, Laura was caught in it, and after a while, she was buried in the cheers and crowd. She did not forget the woman beside her, but when she looked back, she found that the woman had disappeared, and God knows where she was pushed by the crowd!
Connor, oh no, Ryan Gale was scratching Connor's skin. There was still excitement on his face. The spotlight flashed in front of the corridor of the not-so-spacious lounge. He squinted his eyes and didn't even know that he was... Which microphone are you speaking into
This chaotic interview lasted for twenty minutes, and the stadium staff began to push away the crowd and open a passage for the players to leave.
Ryan walked behind the stout security guard, and he had realized that everyone's eyes were on him! As explained before, he is the star in this game!
This is natural. In the game against the Goats last week, he had not yet adapted to his new body. His on-the-spot command worked, but his ability was not obvious. This week, he has completely adapted to his body, and today's game is where he really shines!
In traditional Indian customs, a name is the most important description of a person, and the name Ryan (run) represents 'running'. This is what Ryan is most proud of! In fact, in the interview just now, some people have already started to compare the current 'Connor' with the regrettable 'Ryan Hayate' three years ago!
Ryan's face was filled with excitement. His head looked back left and right under the glare of the spotlight. He stretched out his still sweaty palms to clap with the enthusiastic fans, but he didn't know that his hand was touched by that lucky guy. arrive. In the last period of his life, he had never experienced such a scene of being stared at by countless cameras. Now he is very satisfied!
Ryan's hearing was filled with noisy shouts, "Connor! Connor!..."
He could no longer see the people around him, and his vision was replaced by blindness caused by the spotlight, but he still maintained an excited smile, opened his hands, and countless fingers overlapped, separated, and overlapped with his palms, separate…
Ryan felt a cool palm grabbing his wrist and pulling him to one side forcefully!
"Ryan, run, Ryan, run! My son! Run!"
In Ryan's ears, the shouts of "Connor" all over the world disappeared at this moment, and a voice that truly belonged to Ryan sounded! The pupils dilated due to the excitement! Mother, mother? !
Ryan turned his head, but all he could see were patches of blindness!
"Ryan! Run!"
Ryan felt a ball of paper being stuffed into his hand, pressing his fingers and letting him hold it!
Ryan's teammates behind him pushed him, and the bodyguard in front of him turned around and pushed away the crazy fans who occupied the 'star'!
The coolness on Ryan's wrist disappeared, he was a little sluggish as he was pushed forward by his teammates behind him, and the sound of "Connor" that filled his ears came back again. Ryan clenched the paper bag in his hand. He wanted to look back at the person, but everything in his field of vision was still blocked by blindness...
…
James frowned and looked at the man beside him, "Why did you call me here! You should rest in the hospital!"
"Stop joking!" Ravenci, who was wearing a Bolo tie, smiled and patted James' shoulder, but the sutured wound was affected, and he grinned: "Hunters don't have time to rest!"
"I'm not a hunter!" James frowned. He followed Zach's advice not to have contact with hunters, but this guy found him! This is because the hunter named Ravenci Swift Wind knows James' phone number, James' job, and James' home! James really doesn't know how to avoid this guy!
"No one is born with anything." Rui Wenqi smiled, "You should become a hunter, I am very optimistic about you!"
"I don't need to be favored by you. Just like me before, I am a police detective. I only care about things that threaten citizens! People, or monsters!" James was a little annoyed: "I don't need to be a hunter. Do this!”
"It's a pity that your ability is not enough to deal with the monster in your mouth." Ravenci chuckled and looked at James: "I don't know how you dealt with the skinchanger that attacked you for the first time. Maybe it was just your luck. Okay. At least that ghoul in the second time, if it weren’t for my appearance, you wouldn’t be standing here! Is that right?”
James couldn't argue.
"You are very good. Moreover, you seem to have some understanding of aliens and hunters, but your understanding is not enough." Ravenci smiled and looked at the team walking out of Fenway Park, and raised his hand reluctantly: "Look there, Do you see the 'monster' you call there?"
James looked at the football players surrounded by the crowd. The banners held by the surrounding crowd read 'Beavers'.
"Did you see it? Detective Lance, you are blind!" Ravenci's face turned cold: "But I can tell you right now, there is something in there that takes the place of an identity that does not belong to it!"
"Why are you doing this!" James had already seen the excitement of the group of people.
"This is the difference between you and me, I am a hunter!" Ravenci snorted, "You are a police detective who protects the safety of others, but you can't see the threat. How ironic, isn't it?"
