Top Secret Entrustment [Rebirth]

14 years ago, Miami, USA.

It was another unseasonable winter for this warm coastal city.

The dense rain fell from the sky, and the cool moisture permeated the air. Affected by this winter rain, the temperature in Miami in the last half month was only two or three degrees above zero. The damp yin penetrated into the skin like maggots on the tarsus Tormenting every joint in the flesh.

Really... It hurts so much, why do you want to let yourself come back to life?

The gray and white scenery flashed by outside the car window, Xiao Xicheng half-opened his heavy eyelids, and stared at the smoky gray sky with dead eyes, his face was very ugly, with the pallor and weakness unique to patients, his mouth and nose With the assisted breathing mask on, under a thin layer of mist, the blood-crusted lips fluttered slightly, and the pain every time he gasped seemed to warn him-in this world, life is far more painful than death.

At this moment, the man's slightly cool palm came up and touched his head through the bloody bandage.

"Nearly," said the man, "sleep a little longer, my boy."

That was the first time Xicheng heard Cornell Schumann's voice, gentle and kind, very similar to his father who passed away in the accident, but why did he take in the surviving self?Xicheng closed his eyes tiredly, feeling that it was too tiring to think about this question.

When he regained consciousness, he felt a cold touch on his lips, and his extremely dehydrated body made him reflexively want to ask for more, but the other party seemed to have noticed this intention, and quickly withdrew that little bit. Thirst for moisture.

Xicheng opened his eyes, his wandering sight slowly focused, he turned his head with effort, and noticed a very small boy was kneeling on the armchair beside the bed, holding a moistened cotton swab in his hand.

The little boy's dark eyes curled up with a smile. He was obviously very happy to see him awake, and he poked Xicheng's cheek with a cotton swab with a smile, "Mr. Schumann said that you can't drink water yet, if you promise not to tell him I've been here, I'll secretly give you a drink~"

Xicheng was left speechless after being poked, moved his head to the other side, closed his eyes and didn't intend to answer him.

"Don't you want to drink?" the little boy asked.

Xicheng struggled in his heart, and his intuition told him that this thing must be a trouble, but he couldn't bear the fact that he was really thirsty, so he looked at the little thing again, and said truthfully: "I think."

"Wait for me!" After finishing speaking, the little boy threw away the cotton swab and slowly climbed onto the bed. He dipped his index finger in the water in the paper cup, sent a trembling drop of water, and carefully applied it on Xicheng's lips. on the flap.

Xicheng licked the seam of his lips, stared at the guy who went to fetch the water again, and said lightly, "Who are you?"

"They say you are my third senior brother," the little boy said, "I am Xiao Yu."

Xi Cheng said: "Do you have other senior brothers?"

Xiao Yu hummed, and said: "In the spring, a senior brother and a senior sister came. They were fine at first, but then they ignored me." Speaking of this, he sighed in great confusion, and looked at him hesitantly. Xicheng, "Brother, will you ignore me?"

Xicheng didn't answer the question, but said, "How long have you been here?"

"It's been there since the beginning."

"A student of Mr. Schumann?"

"Ah."

That would be strange, Xicheng thought calmly, generally speaking, people like them who depend on others will understand the principle of first come, first served. After all, longer time often means that they are more trusted and understand the rules of this place better, so there should be some Taking advantage of the value, why is this guy so unpopular?

Xiao Yu didn't know that the other party was slandering her, so she concentrated on feeding Xi Chengxiao half a glass of water, and didn't dare to add more, for fear that if something happened, the teacher would punish him again.

After drinking the water, Xiao Yu kicked off her slippers, got into the quilt, and lay down in a narrow place beside the bed, like a docile and obedient cat. Unable to move because of an injury, he kicked a certain foot long ago.

The two chatted one after another, and the more they talked about Xicheng, the more they found that this kid named Xiao Yu knew a lot. He could learn everything about Cornell Schumann from him, even including the relationship with the thief. Career-related content, so although he repelled it in his heart, he still reluctantly accepted this kind of intimate relationship between brothers and sisters based on the principle of not wasting resources.

At least...you have to wait until you have a firm footing before throwing him off.

Winter went to spring, and by the next March, Xicheng's injury had completely healed, and he began to receive training from Schumann.

The initial content is mainly based on the basics. Thieves need very strong physical fitness. As Schumann's students, they must take into account speed, strength and flexibility beyond their peers. And it has to be fast.

A year later, the training intensity doubled, and several children of the same age were taken in one after another. Under the almost cruel training, everyone's growth was astonishing. After a while, Xicheng understood why Xiao Yu didn't invite the other two fellow students to see him.

He is indeed Cornell Schumann's youngest student and the one who has been here the longest, but everyone can clearly feel Schumann's dislike for Xiao Yu, and this dislike has almost become a habit. No matter how he behaves, the result will always be only one word - penalty.

Schumann is the only owner here, and there is really no need to get too close to the people he hates.

Realizing this, Xicheng didn't do it as thoroughly as the other two did. He is a person with a cold personality. Even if he was alone with Xiao Yu in the past, after he got enough information, he would always listen too much. Yu said that apart from being a bit noisy, there are not many disadvantages.

What's more, sometimes Xicheng also feels that in the world of thieves where the truth and falsehood are mixed, it is actually quite nice to have someone who doesn't bother to distinguish the truth from the false.

In the middle of the night, a gust of wind that was so weak that it was almost negligible suddenly blew into the closed bedroom, and everything else was quiet. Xicheng, who was already resting on the bed, habitually pulled the quilt away, feeling something cold coming in. Cover the quilt again.

"Why is it late?"

"If the teacher punishes you severely, it will waste time."

Xicheng felt that it was too cold around him, so he turned around and turned around. Just as he stretched his hand halfway, he heard Xiao Yu gasping for breath, his voice trembling, "Don't touch me, it hurts..."

Xicheng frowned, sat up and turned on the bedside lamp, "Someone hit you?" A certain one huddled under the quilt and didn't move to change. ?”

Xiao Yu's face was clean, and the neckline of the pajamas was opened, revealing a few swollen and congested marks on his chest, which were caused by a whip. Yu Xicheng didn't say a word. After all, these were skin traumas, so raising them would not be a problem. What he noticed was that The opponent's two hands hidden in the sleeves.

He held Xiao Yu's arm and gently rolled up the cuffs. Xiao Yu hissed in pain and couldn't help but shed tears.

The two hands were red and swollen, and the skin seemed to be separated from the flesh. This was due to repeated soaking in hot and cold water. If the opponent was more ruthless, the flesh on the top could be pulled off the phalanx.

Everyone here understands the importance of hands to thieves, so such ruthless tactics must not be what Schumann meant.

"I'll go find some medicine for you," Xi Cheng said, "Wait here for me."

After speaking, Yu Xicheng got out of bed, changed into dark clothes, took something from the drawer and put it in his arms, and then left the bedroom without looking back.

At the same time, three floors of study rooms.

Cornell Schuman was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, holding a cup of steaming black tea in his hand, and was listening to a man report what happened after nightfall with his eyes closed.

"Who did it mean to find out?"

"Yes, boss," the man said: "Today, the young master was punished by a newcomer who came two months ago. The subordinates found out that the second young lady had contact with him in private some time ago."

Schumann hummed flatly and didn't make a statement. The man couldn't figure out what his boss was thinking, and waited for a few minutes to see the other party, but there was no response. Then he asked cautiously: "Boss, what do you mean?"

"This group of little guys already know that they have to start with the weakest one. Knowing that competition is a good thing for thieves, anyway, sooner or later there will only be one person left, let them solve it by themselves."

"Yes, boss."

"Come over tomorrow morning and let me know the result."

"Tomorrow morning?" The man was stunned, "They...will attack so soon?"

Schumann smiled when he heard this.He lowered his head and took a sip of the hot tea, "Except for Xiaoqi, the rest are all picked up by me personally, regardless of their young age, each one is a little beast with minions hidden, treat them as children , you will suffer too."

The man still found it inconceivable, but at this moment, a scream suddenly sounded downstairs.

"Go and have a look, by the way, I'll be fined," Schumann said, "It's too big a deal to call it like this."

The man bowed, "Yes, boss."

Exiting the study, he hurried to the second floor, only to see that the doors on both sides of the corridor were closed tightly. The companions who lived together day and night might encounter accidents, and none of these children went out to check.

wrong!Maybe they didn't regard other people as companions from the beginning... The man was startled, he knew that the scream came from the second lady's bedroom, he walked over and gently opened the door.

A strong smell of blood rushed to his face, and low sobs sounded in the darkness.

The man pressed the switch, and the overhead light came on, and he finally saw the scene in the room clearly—the sheets on the bed were soaked in blood, body fragments and internal organs were scattered everywhere, and the blood-stained blond girl looked at him sobbing .

"Please don't tell... Teacher Schumann, I... I will clean it up myself."

"Who did it?" The man couldn't help asking.

The girl shook her head, "I didn't see clearly, he was really...too fast."

At this time, the bedroom at the end of the corridor.

Little Xiao Yu's hands were smeared with medicine, and were tightly wrapped with bandages. He looked at the two paws wrapped like bear's paws, and wondered depressedly whether Mr. Schumann would punish him for this after dawn, and then asked: "Who was calling just now?"

Xicheng put the medicine on the bedside table and said blankly, "I don't know."

"What... did you do?"

"Don't worry about it."

"But brother—"

Xicheng pushed the person down, covered him with the quilt, hesitated for a moment, carried him back, and said calmly, "Sleep."

"Oh," Xiao Yu's voice sounded in the darkness, "You know, he is the only one who keeps his word to me." He paused, and then said, "Senior Brother, you must keep your word. ..."

Ten years later, the final assessment.

The rain brought by the typhoon covered the entire city of Miami. Under the night, the flames were soaring into the sky. This villa hidden among the broad-leaved trees burned blazingly in the torrential rain.

Yu Xicheng stood in front of the courtyard gate, the blood all over his body was washed away by the rain, and a dark red pool of blood pooled under his feet. He looked at the only path leading to the outside world in the chaos, and there was still a trace of the scarred look in his eyes when he fled in embarrassment. film.

"Third Young Master," Song Yuan walked behind him and covered his head with a black umbrella, "Go back, Xiaoqi will not come back, you...don't worry."
