Chapter 48 Change Starts From This Moment! (2 in 1 Chapter~)
Latest website: Emma took Kratos and Logan to wash their hands.
Danvers and Passy at the table asked Esther about Edmond.
"Why didn't Edmond come?"
Danvers is an outspoken lady who asks directly, looking a little aggressive.
Passy didn't speak, just stroked her bulging belly and looked at Esther quietly, as if listening, but Esther would rather face ten Danvers than face one Passy.
Because, he knew very well what kind of character Ms. Passy was.
Not only is it soft on the outside and tough on the inside, but also has extremely meticulous logic. It is too difficult to deceive the other party.
Therefore, after a little consideration, Esther lowered his voice and said:
"This is a chance!"
"Let's not be held hostage in the true sense, and there will be no chance for things like Warren, Quick, Clive, Edwin, Jones, Rodney to happen again!"
Hearing her boyfriend Clive's name, Danvers' face darkened.
She and Clive are getting married.
In a while, she will be Mrs Clive, not Danvers.
And now?
She also thought of herself as Mrs. Clive.
Otherwise, why did she join the 'fraternity'?
Just to be the superwoman that Emma's cute kid called her?
"Are you sure?"
"What do we need to do?"
Danvers also lowered her voice, she didn't want the children to hear it.
"Trust Edmond-senpai."
"He's more reliable and smarter than we thought."
"As for help?"
"We eat here to help.
"
Esther laughed.
Percy's hand, who had been stroking his bulging belly, suddenly froze.
She raised her head and looked at Esther, who was pretending to be relaxed.
"There is also the secret son of the big man in the 'shelter'. Edmond can't determine who it is for the time being, so he hopes to use our ease to paralyze the other party and reveal his fault?"
Esther's face was full of bitterness at Percy's question.
He knew that once the slightest bit of news was revealed, he would not be able to hide it from this woman.
"Senior Edmond doesn't mean to use us as bait..."
"I know! I know Edmond, too, and I know who he is!"
"I wonder now is he in danger?"
Percy interrupted Astor's explanation.
She has already understood what kind of person Edmond is, lazy, shy, and messy. Such people are really not at all dangerous. If it wasn't for this, she wouldn't be here with her children. .
But it was precisely because of this that she was worried.
Worried that Edmond couldn't handle the big man.
Although she didn't know it in detail, just a few words had already made her guess.
"Do not worry!"
"Senior Edmond has already prepared everything."
"and……"
"Didn't you see we're missing someone here, Parcy?"
Esther meant something.
Jason?
Percy and Danvers were taken aback.
Only at this time did they realize that Jason was not here.
"So it is!"
"I'll just say why Jason refuses food."
Alas nodded suddenly.
"Not bad guy."
Avont complimented in a low voice.
Just now, the 'Juggernaut' was ready to go to the 'Asylum' to help Edmond, who was obviously regarded by his son as a 'life mentor'.
Although he was very unhappy that his son did not regard him as a 'life mentor', Edmond's teaching to his son was real, and he naturally wouldn't watch him fall into danger.
That big man and the dark child of the other party?
Avont didn't think much about it.
Anzi can draw his sword and cut.
Big people can, of course.
It is nothing more than a question of one more sword and one less sword.
As for the so-called big shots at the headquarters of the 'Asylum'?
Evante didn't care about that at all.
People can cut.
Naturally, the headquarters of the 'shelter' can also be cut down.
After recovering some memories and possessing the continuation of his bloodline, Avante has unprecedented confidence. The sword in his heart has long reappeared, and it is sharper and tougher than before.
Looking at this sword, Avent had already understood how much he could do—
Because of my sword, everything will be cut!
However, there was no breath on Avante's body.
Aventur, who was wearing a cloak and just took off his mask, was like an ordinary middle-aged and elderly person, looking at his son and friends around the dining table with a smile and telling things.
He enjoyed the warmth of this 'home' very much.
As if that's what he was after.
Do not!
Not as if.
But that's what I was after.
Evante thought seriously.
hum!
The sword that only Avante could see became sharper and tougher immediately, and gleams of brilliance flickered from it.
The strength of the ‘Juggernaut’ Aventi has once again improved silently.
But Evante didn't care at all.
Now he just thinks... When will his son get married?
He will be able to have grandchildren and granddaughters more often.
Better to have more than one.
Boys are too naughty, three or five is fine.
There are eight or nine girls who are quiet and lovely.
Then, there are two houses.
There is a big house in the urban area, which is noisy on weekdays. During the holidays, he goes to a house outside the city for vacation. He can take his grandchildren to fly kites, do handicrafts, and teach them swordsmanship.
Thinking of this, Avante, who had not improved because of his strength, suddenly became excited.
He hopes to have a group of lovely grandsons and granddaughters.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Esther keenly noticed the strangeness of Avante, turned around and asked worriedly.
"fine."
"Avante, do you have a girlfriend?"
Avante waved his hand and asked very seriously.
Esther was stunned.
He really didn't expect his dad to ask that.
Subconsciously, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I-I don't have a girlfriend yet."
Esther answered truthfully.
Aventur immediately shook his head again.
"We must find one as soon as possible."
"You are in your early twenties now, talking about a girlfriend, it takes at least two years to get to know each other, one year after getting married, you can have your first child, and then have a second one, it will take eleven years if you have at least eleven... "
Evante said seriously.
Esther's face turned green.
Why did you start urging marriage before Chinese New Year?
He was in his early twenties and wanted to enjoy a single life.
"Dad, this, this, we'll talk about it when we're done."
Esther wanted to change the subject.
Danvers on the side began to join in the fun.
"I have a friend who is very good. I can introduce you to her. Besides, she also has the surname of 'Joe'. If you marry Esther, your child will be 'Jojo', which sounds very good. name."
Danvers said half-jokingly.
She didn't have any ill intentions, she was simply making fun of Esther.
And after seeing Aster's unrequited expression, Danvers smiled very happily.
However, as a father, Avante is serious.
"What kind of girl is that 'Jo'?"
Avante walked to the dining table and asked in detail.
"She's a female criminal lawyer named Jennifer."
Danvers faced Esther's father and immediately introduced him seriously.
Evante's eyes lit up when he heard it.
If you can become a female lawyer, your brain will not be bad, your body should be very healthy, and your family conditions should be very good.
It's perfect!
"I think on the weekend, I can let Esther meet with each other."
Avont suggested.
"No problem, I'll contact Jennifer in a moment."
Danvers readily promised.
Esther was sitting in a chair, covering his face, and groaning in pain.
He is a single aristocrat!
He doesn't want a girlfriend!
I don't even want to get married!
Percy watched all this with a smile.
She felt that the 'fraternity' at the moment was really like a big family.
The sadness in my heart dissipated a lot before I knew it.
Arras stared at the food on the table, swallowing saliva unconsciously.
When are you going to have dinner?
Emma, haven't they finished washing their hands yet?
Alas thought.
And at this moment-
"Emma, Emma, what's wrong with you?"
Logan's exclamation came.
Arras stood up and rushed towards the bathroom, but Avent was faster.
In the eyes of Esther and others, Avante appeared at the door of the bathroom almost teleportingly. Then, as soon as the door opened, he walked out with a comatose Emma in his arms.
"She had a fever and was in a coma."
"Aster called an ambulance."
Avont said directly.
"understood."
Esther nodded immediately and picked up the phone next to him.
Danvers got up and went to the kitchen to get ice cubes and a towel to physically cool Emma.
Passy motioned Avent to put Emma down, and worriedly looked at this little girl whose face was flushed with fever and her body was shaking slightly.
"You'll be fine."
"I promise you that."
"You'll be well soon."
Passy, who was pregnant with the child, held Emma's hand and said softly.
Under the lights of the dining room, a shimmer of brilliance appeared on Percy's body.
In some special moments, the elders will unconsciously love the younger.
This happens even if there is no blood connection.
People call it: mother's love.
But more people call it: the brilliance of motherhood.
It seemed that she felt the presence of Passy like a mother. Although Emma was still having a fever, her trembling body quickly stopped.
This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
"What just happened?"
Alas asked the uneasy Logan and Kratos softly.
"I'm telling her about the 'Brotherhood', 'Hydra', 'Taotie Club' and 'Night Owl Court'..."
Logan bowed his head in shame.
He seemed to think it was self-inflicted.
And ashamed, he did not find that a little bit of 'sharpness' appeared on the back of his hand.
Similarly, Kratos did not find that his body seemed to be a little stronger.
Changes started unknowingly.
Not just in this small apartment.
And the whole city of Ang.
In the 'Asylum' of Ang City, Edmond was wiping his weapon.
He is waiting.
He knew that after his report was handed in, with the character of that big man, he would definitely kill him.
But he had no choice.
For everyone's safety.
He has to do it!
Boom, boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door.
Edmond froze in his heart.
coming!
He put one pistol on the table, while the other held it straight in his hand.
It's a simple trap.
Edmond hopes that those who come in will be attracted by the pistols on the table.
Because... in a head-to-head confrontation, he is not sure to win the opponent.
There are a lot of people in Angcheng's 'shelter', but there are not so many people who are really worthy of the other party's wooing.
Aside from the original supervisor and the three C-level personnel.
Only two people remained.
Clark and Lites!
Captain and Vice-Captain of the Mobile Squad.
Apart from these two, Edmond couldn't think of anyone else.
And Edmond, who was born in the mobile team, knows the strength of these two people. Although there is no 'abnormal item' and no 'abnormal ability', his fighting skills and shooting have reached a level unmatched by ordinary people.
Clark is good at hand-to-hand combat and can easily bend steel bars as thick as a finger.
Litus is good at shooting, not only is he perfect, but you never know where his bullets will come from and pierce your body.
Facing these two, Edmond did not dare to be careless.
At the same time, he hopes that the secret son of the big man is Clark.
After all, it's really hard for him to fight against Lites in terms of shooting skills.
"Please come in."
Edmond relied on breathing to adjust his mood, and then spoke directly.
The door opened.
Two figures appeared outside the door at the same time.
Clark, Lites!
That one is not alone!
but two!
Edmond, who had reacted in an instant, had his breath stagnant, and he subconsciously raised his gun to shoot, but Clark and Litus raised their hands directly at this time.
Edmond was stunned.
"We want to talk."
Clark said as a representative.
"it is good."
Edmond nodded, but did not refuse.
At this moment, it is obvious that the other party has an absolute advantage.
Facing either Clark or Litus, Edmond thought he was 50% sure, but facing two at the same time?
There is no certainty.
If you are not sure if you are going head-to-head, you have to start from other aspects.
Even before he came to Angcheng in despair, Edmond knew this.
Clark closed the door, and then sat down with Lites at Edmond's desk. After the two sat down, they did not speak for the first time, but remained silent for about ten seconds before Clark spoke again. .
"We want to join the 'fraternity.'"
Clark said.
"what?"
Edmond was stunned for a moment, a little unresponsive.
"We want to join the 'fraternity.'"
Clark reiterated, and then, without waiting for Edmond to speak, he continued: "I know, it's hard for you to accept it now, in fact, I was surprised when I made this decision-because, in my When he found Litus, he had the same idea."
"We don't want to endure the inner torment any more."
"Varlen, Quick, Clive, Edwin, Jones, and Rodney are strictly speaking our people, but we have not been able to avenge them, but need Edmond you to do it. "
"When we asked that big man to make some applications, it was just perfunctory!"
"What did he do?"
"He sent that bastard Sean."
"We know exactly what he wants to do, take the opportunity to get rid of us, and then support two more obedient people."
"So, we quit, we joined the Brotherhood."
Clark, who had always been silent, spoke as if to talk.
Lites on the side also spoke at this time.
"Obviously said three years, but three years after three years, three years after three years,!"
"Ten years!"
"I am tormented!"
"I can't help it."
"I can no longer watch my subordinates, friends, and partners helplessly. I just died like this, and I died inexplicably!"
The vice-captain of the mobile team said as if venting.
Edmond sat there watching the two of them.
There was an inexplicable reversal of humor and happiness in his heart.
But then there was a trace of sadness.
He could really see the suffering of the two of them.
because……
So did he.
With a serious face, Edmond stood up, and he solemnly said to Clark and Lites: "Welcome to the 'Brotherhood'!"
Snapped!
Clark and Litus saluted Edmond directly.
Like the allegiance of a knight.
It's like saying goodbye to the past.
They finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The uneasy feeling of speculation just now was let go.
They didn't get to the bottom of why they suddenly speculated on the unease.
They just treated it as a cumulative outbreak.
However, no matter what.
They are at ease.
Next...
Naturally, it is time to face the big man.
Clark and Litus looked at Edmond.
"Don't be so nervous."
"If my report goes well...that big man will be in big trouble."
"However, he will also guess your actions."
"So, he will definitely activate the other dark sons of Angcheng."
"His influence is not only in the 'shelter'."
Edmond said in a relaxed tone.
What he was most worried about was the inside of the 'shelter', the dark son who belonged to him.
As for the outside?
He wasn't worried.
He has too many ways to deal with those people.
Whether civilized or obscene, he already had a plan.
Of course, the necessary caution is indispensable.
"Clark, Lites, I'll ask you two for the next 48 hours."
"Please re-arrange the security guards of the 'shelter', and at the same time, keep the mobile team on standby at any time."
Edmond said.
"Yes, sir!"
Clark and Litus saluted again, turned around and walked out.
door, closed.
Edmond sat back in his chair.
He raised his head, looked at the lamps on the ceiling, and said in a vague voice.
"I have left, and you are still persecuting me."
"Then I will fight you to the death!"
"I'm not trying to prove how amazing I am, I just want to tell everyone... don't mess with me!"
After speaking, Edmond sat up straight, and he picked up the phone.
And just when Edmond made the call, many big figures in Ang City and elites from many industries were having dinner with their family members at their respective homes, or staggering in high-end restaurants. At the same time, they were also from Their respective channels know what happened in Angcheng, which makes some of them frown and some are annoyed.
But more of a panic.
However, these expressions only existed in the last moment.
next moment!
They suddenly showed proud, proud smiles one by one.
They shouted in unison in their hearts—
'Long Live the Hydra'!
