Byron's Blade

Dora Pisco turned her head slowly, her gaze first lingered on Alita who was closest to her, and then slowly shifted away, the image of Mu Li was reflected in her green eyes.

Her eyes were so empty, and the expression on her face was also very numb and indifferent.But this state didn't last long, after a few seconds of daze, she seemed to recognize who Mu Li was.The flames of hatred slowly burned in the empty eyes, and the numb face gradually twisted into an expression of extreme resentment.In the next moment, like a wounded beast, she crawled over from the bed, staggered towards Mu Li regardless of falling to the ground.

Alita had been prepared for a long time, took a step ahead of her, blocked her way, and stretched out her arms to hug her tightly, imprisoned her in her arms, and shouted:

"Dora! What did I tell you? Calm down!"

"Ah !!! Ah !!!!!!!!!" Dora couldn't listen to Elita at all, screamed, stretched out his hands and tried to catch Mu Li.

Mu Li froze in place, Dora's young and distorted face was reflected in his dark eyes.All the blood in her body flowed backwards, and all of it rushed to her head, her hands and feet were cold, and her mind went blank.Born in this world, she never thought that one day, she would be hated so much.It turns out that being hated is such a feeling, it's really not...a very good feeling, I can't breathe, my heart is pressed by a big stone, my body trembles involuntarily, I really want to run away.

Is it her fault?Should this hatred be borne by her?She was deceived, and under the overall inducement, she made a helpless choice.She killed Mary with her own hands, didn't she suffer herself?Every day and night, she was tortured mentally, and she even thought of giving up her life.After finally finding some reason to live, in the end, he still has to face the sins he committed in the past.

Some things, even if understandable, are unacceptable.People can't get around their emotions anyway, especially the hatred of the murder of their close relatives, which normal people can't let go of.

Mu Li subconsciously took a step back, as if he was about to turn around and leave in the next second.A slender and warm hand suddenly touched her back, and Lan Ni whispered from behind:

"Don't run away, if you survive, I'll be right here with you."

Mu Li opened his mouth slightly, as if to say something, but he didn't say anything.She just clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, forced herself to stand still, and stared at Dora with wide eyes, as if she wanted to engrave every detail of her face in her mind.

Don't run away, no matter who deceives me or induces me, the final choice is made by myself, the consequences are caused by me, and the injustice is planted by myself.Don't run, this is my sin, I face it, I finish it, I bear it, I can't run, I won't run.

Dora struggled and lost control of her emotions.Alita had already pulled the syringe out of her pocket to give her a sedative.Mu Li suddenly roared:

"Alita! Don't do this, let her go!"

Alita looked back at Mu Li in surprise, and Mu Li added:

"Let go of her, I'll be fine."

Alita's eyes flickered for a moment, and after hesitating, the strength of her hands loosened.Dora immediately took this opportunity to break free from Alita's shackles, rushed to Mu Li with one stride, and threw her at Mu Li with a wave of her arms.She hadn't learned fighting skills either, and she relied on instinct to fight, but Mu Li didn't resist at all, just stood there motionless.

With a crisp sound of "slap", Mu Li's left cheek was immediately slapped by Dora, followed by a punch on the right cheek, then forehead, chest, nose... Dora's attack was random , just waved her hands randomly, but almost hit Mu Li in the face, and she would push Mu Li fiercely, but Mu Li didn't push hard, and was pushed back again and again by her, and finally hit the wall.She raised her foot to kick Mu Li again, but it missed the vital point at all.

Mu Li didn't make any defensive moves either, and the empty door was wide open, allowing her to hit randomly.The crazy Dora attacked with all her strength, but it was actually very painful, and Mu Li's face soon became bruised and swollen.

Lan Ni bit her lip, stood aside and just watched, no matter how painful her heart was, she would not intervene.This is a matter between Mu Li and Dora, and it will not be beneficial for outsiders to intervene.And Alita watched all this with furrowed eyebrows, preventing Dora from really killing her. Her most important task this time was to protect Mu Li and Dora so that they would not hurt each other.

In the end, he was kicked on the knee, and Mu Li fell to his knees. Dora actually picked up the chair beside her and threw her head at Mu Li.If he doesn't defend this time, even Mu Li will be seriously injured.

Lan Ni screamed, and finally couldn't bear to step forward to stop Dora.Alita reacted much faster than Lanny. She had already rushed to Dora's side, and she raised her hand to stun her.At this moment, Mu Li made an unexpected movement. She, who had never fought back, suddenly reached out and grabbed the chair, gently and skillfully took the chair down, and put it aside.

Dora seemed to be tired, she stood there panting, looking at Mu Li.

Mu Li wiped the blood overflowing from the corner of his cracked mouth, looked at Dora and said:

"What I owe you, I will pay it back slowly. It doesn't matter if I don't pay it off for the rest of my life. However, I will not give you my life. I will not let your mother's sacrifice be in vain. She died for my life. I Will live a good life and fulfill her wish. I never expect you to forgive me one day, nor to talk about how many times I saved you, it will never be clear. Dora, you hate me is your business, you I have no right to control my emotions, I just hope that you don't do stupid things, life is not just hatred, I don't want you to miss too much."

Dora froze on the spot for a moment, then rushed up again, grabbed the lapel of Mu Li's chest, and said angrily:

"What qualifications do you have...Educating me like this, you killed my mother, she is my only relative in this world, and you actually told me that there is more than hatred in this world? My mother's death will become my life forever. Unforgettable pain. I will remember that you shot and killed her, and I witnessed everything from the sidelines. You...are so ruthless, so decisive...I...Mom and her... ...Woo....Mom, her bones...can't be taken back....Woo..."

In the end, Dora couldn't cry anymore, grabbed Mu Li's clothes, and knelt down slowly.Mu Li knelt down and hugged Dora slowly with tears in her eyes. Her action was not resisted by Dora. Maybe the little girl was really tired. She knew that she could not kill Mu Li. After the whole truth, she couldn't blame Mu Li for all the crimes, but where should she vent her hatred?She doesn't understand the world and these people.

She grabbed the clothes around Mu Li's waist so tightly that her nails were embedded in Mu Li's flesh.

It has been such a long time since the haircut, the scars on his body have healed, but the pain in his heart has never been relieved in the slightest.Many people have come to talk to her one after another, including the leader of the gang who rescued her, and the female doctor who is present.They said, your mother died with honor and you should be proud of her.She has her persistence and belief, you are her only child, you should inherit her legacy.They also say, you can be sad, you can be resentful, but please don't be swayed by these emotions.

Dora said that she didn't understand these things, she only knew that her mother was dead, she hated her so much, and she wanted revenge.

So they replied: Well, then find out who you should take revenge on.Your mother died because of this ridiculous world, if you want revenge, overthrow this world.

Dora couldn't figure out who she should resent.

Perhaps her crying was so sad that it infected the other two women present.Lanny's eyes were wet, she turned around and didn't want to look any more.And Alita walked slowly to the window, looking out of the window, as if remembering the past.

I don't know how long it has passed, Dora was tired from crying, and almost exhausted all the strength in her body, she just knelt like this and passed out in Mu Li's arms.Mu Li picked her up and said in a hoarse voice:

"I'll carry her to the car, please pack her luggage."

As he spoke, he staggered and hugged Dora and walked out of the ward slowly.

After she left, Alita said to Lanny:

"Mu Li is in a bad mood right now. You should go see Bailey alone. You are the one who is familiar with her. She is upstairs in Ward 612. I will stay and pack Dora's things and wait for you in the car. .”

"Okay." Lan Ni replied simply, wiped the corners of her eyes, then turned and walked out of the ward.

Compared with the heart-burning reunion of Mu Li and Dora, the reunion of Lan Ni and Bailey is more plain and warm.

When Lanny knocked on the door of Bailey's ward, she heard the long-lost voice of her distant cousin:

"Please come in."

When I opened the door and entered, I saw a long-haired woman in casual clothes, putting the last piece of clothing into a large handbag.The woman turned her head, with a quiet aura, a bookish face, and gray eyes behind rimless glasses that looked a bit vicissitudes, but full of wisdom.This is Bailey Comberly, the most direct victim and the biggest beneficiary of the downfall of General Pierre.

"Hey, Miss Bailey, long time no see."

"Haha, Lanny, long time no see." Bailey strode over and hugged Lanny.Seeing Lanny, she seemed very happy, and even couldn't help joking, "It's just been a long time since I saw you, and you should have seen me several times before I knew it."

"Hmm, that's right." Lanny replied with a smile.

"How is it, how are you?"

"I still can't die. To be honest, that Dr. Alita's level is really high. I can recover in such a short time, which is actually a rare thing in biology."

"Haha, here you go again. Moving is biology. When I asked you questions before, you always liked to talk like this. After so many years, this habit still hasn't changed."

"Yes, it's been so many years. But a habit is a habit, and you can't change it." Bailey finally seemed a little emotional.

She looked at Lanny, and then said:

"I was just about to ask you, how are you doing recently? I heard that you gave up your comfortable life as a young lady and joined Assassin."

"Missy's life is actually not comfortable at all. You know, I like freedom since I was a child, and I don't want to be restrained." Lan Ni replied with a light smile.

"I understand you. But..." She dragged her tone and teased, "Why, have you finally found your sweetheart?"

Lan Ni spoke softly: "Yes, Miss Bailey, thanks to you, I finally found her."

"Congratulations, Lanny, I hope you can keep going."

"Sister Bailey, you have a golden word, and it will definitely come true." Lan Ni blinked playfully, and then she picked up Bailey's bag and said:

"Let's go, we should go home."

"Go home... yeah, it's time to go home." Bailey sighed softly.

Although the two were calm and joyful on the surface, they were full of emotions in their hearts.What happened to Bailey is actually worse than Dora's, but she is a very sensible woman with a very mature personality.After learning that Pierre was down and imprisoned, and waiting for the result that he might be imprisoned for life, she seemed to have lifted the burden of her whole body, and since then she has become a person who has nothing to worry about.

The reason why she still stays here and decides to join Assassin is because she still has some ideals that she has held since she was a child.As a biologist, she has her ideals for scientific research. In the past, she was entangled in her private life, and her career ideals were also hindered.But now she can finally let go, and her interest in the Zerg and predators outside the city walls has never been dampened.Since she was a child, she wanted to study these disgusting big guys thoroughly, and then find a way to completely counter them.

Now, she doesn't plan to use the official platform, it's too bureaucratic, too restrictive, and it will remind her of the past, making her uncomfortable.She intends to gradually realize her ideal in such an approachable team, with the help of this financially strong non-governmental organization.This is also the consensus she reached with the hermit, the leader of Assassin.

Bailey respected the hermit very much.She thought the Hermit was a very great leader, even surpassing Lanny's father, General Friesman.If General Friesman is the bright and mysterious moonlight at night, then the hermit is the sun that illuminates the earth during the day.She is aboveboard, her charisma and charisma are even more than that of Friesman.Looking at the hermit, Bailey can always think of someone, and that is Lanny's grandmother, General Christian.

Lan Ni walked side by side with her outside the nursing home. When talking about joining the Assassin, Lan Ni felt as if she had returned to her high school days. At that time, Sister Bailey was just like now, with her eyes shining and full of love. future expectations.Her ideal seems to be within reach, she is full of fighting spirit and magnificent.Such Miss Bailey made Lanny very happy.She is the one who really stepped out of the shadows, and Bailey's strength made her extremely admired.

When the two walked into the parking lot, they saw Alita waiting by the car from afar.Bailey approached and reached out to shake Alita's hand.Alita smiled and said:

"Welcome, Dr. Bailey, please get in the car."

Then he helped to open the door.

Bailey got into the car and immediately saw Mu Li sitting in the last row, and Dora sleeping soundly on Mu Li's lap.Bailey rolled his eyes, and immediately guessed the identity of this beautiful woman with black hair and black eyes, and couldn't help laughing:

"Hello, you are the rumored Muli, right?"

"Hello, Dr. Bailey." Mu Li cheered up and said with a smile.

"Do you... believe in the saying of deja vu? I think you look familiar." Bailey sat in the front row of Mu Li, turned his head and said.

"I can't understand your feelings better." Mu Li laughed as if mocking himself.

At this moment, Lanny also got into the car, and since Mu Li was already sitting with Dora, she sat beside Bailey.Listening to their conversation, she opened the car window, crossed her arms, propped her cheeks, looked out the window, and smiled without saying a word.

Alita started the car, and the car slowly drove away from the nursing home.
