Chapter 285

"Don't cry, don't cry, I'm here, I'm here."

The old man, showing no disgust at the children's stench, embraced them with his frail body and gently comforted them.

"Don't worry, I'm here. I'm here."

The blond thug who was pushed aside was further enraged and immediately went over to punch and kick the old man.

The elderly man being beaten remained silent, enduring the yellow-haired man's punches and kicks in silence to protect the children.

Looking at the trembling old man he had beaten, the blond thug pointed at the group of children he was protecting and said fiercely.

"If it weren't for you bunch of little bastards, I wouldn't have been forced to leave my home!"

After saying that, he beat the old man even more fiercely, and even tried to pull the old man away so that he could attack the group of children.

Even so, no one was willing to help the elderly, and some even looked at the elderly and children with hatred in their eyes.

For them, it was the Gastrea who drove them from their home, and the "Cursed Children" had the blood of the Gastrea that they hated and loathed, so their hatred was transferred to the "Cursed Children" as well.

Perhaps it was because the actions of the blond thugs aroused their hatred and resentment that some of them began to treat the children with malice.

"It's because of you red-eyed monsters that my home is gone! Just die already!"

"My friend was killed by you monsters! Go and pay for my friend's death!"

"It's all your fault! That's why 'Libra' appeared in Osaka!"

"..."

The malicious words struck the children's fragile hearts one by one. No matter how real and desperate their tears and cries were, they did not move these malicious people.

When Rentaro walked in and saw this scene, he was instantly filled with rage. He was about to push the blond thug aside and beat him up when...

"Bang!"

A crisp, loud gunshot rang out.

Then...

"Aaaaaaaahh..."

The blond-haired man immediately let out a scream.

Then, clutching his bleeding thigh, he lay on the ground and writhed wildly.

Upon hearing the gunshot, the crowd scattered in alarm.

Two figures slowly emerged from behind them.

It was Luo Mio and Tendo Kisara who had gone to rest.

Luo Mio walked over with a cold, indifferent expression, her gun lowered.

The face of Tendo Kisara beside him was also very gloomy.

The wealthy man's eyes lit up when he saw Tendo Kisara's appearance, completely forgetting the gunshots and the blond thug lying on the ground screaming.

Luo Mio walked over, helped the old man who had been knocked to the ground up, and then gently rubbed his back with her hands.

"Kigami".

Luo Mio raised her head and looked at Tendo Kisara.

Tendo Kisara nodded slightly, then stroked the old man's hand from Luo Mio's.

Rentaro and Enju also rushed over to help take care of and comfort the bullied "Cursed Children".

Luo Mio turned her gaze and gave the blond thug a cold look.

Then he strode towards the young, beautiful woman, his azure eyes coldly fixed on her.

Then he slowly opened his mouth, his tone as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"You used your right hand to hit someone just now, didn't you?"

Perhaps she was momentarily intimidated by the sight of Luo Mio shooting someone, but when she thought of her husband's identity, her tone became arrogant.

"So what if it is?"

But in the next instant, she paid the price for her words.

Suddenly, a white light flashed before the young woman's eyes.

There was a loud thud.

"Huh?"

The young woman paused in surprise, then slowly turned her head.

Upon seeing the scene before her, the beautiful woman let out a piercing, agonizing scream.

"Aaaaaaahh..."

A slender arm with a pale purple sleeve fell beside the young woman, while countless drops of scarlet blood gushed from her shoulder.

Rentaro and Kisara quickly covered the children's eyes with their bodies to prevent them from seeing such a bloody scene.

Rentaro's face was also extremely vicious and ugly, because this was the first time he had seen Luo Mio so angry, cold, and indifferent.

"Rentaro?"

Enju turned her head away in confusion.

"Don't look over there! Enju!"

Rentaro quickly said to Enju.

But it was too late; Enju had already looked over.

Upon witnessing this scene, Enju turned pale.

Meanwhile, Tendo Kisara, standing next to Rentaro, had a slightly gloomy expression, but his bright and sharp eyes seemed to be deep in thought.

The young woman's husband was stunned when he saw this scene, staring blankly at the gushing blood from his wife.

Looking at the young, beautiful woman in front of her who was screaming in pain, Luo Mio spoke in a cold, emotionless voice, as if she were not human.

"If you don't want your other hand to be broken too, please shut your mouth."

Upon hearing Luo Mio's soft yet chilling voice, filled with intense killing intent, the young beauty immediately shut her mouth.

She bit her lip, trembling, her body shaking with pain and fear, tears, sweat, and saliva soaking her thick makeup.

However, he soon fell into a coma due to the intense pain.

"What are you doing! I'm reporting you for malicious assault!"

When the young woman's husband saw Luo Mio slash his wife, he immediately shouted loudly.

However, there was a hint of fear and trembling in his roar.

The boy standing next to him was stunned and stood frozen in place when he saw his stepmother's miserable state.

After glancing at the wealthy man, Luo Mio turned to the police officer who had arrived and spoke to him.

"Come over here and stop the bleeding."

Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, the young policeman paused for a moment, then took the medical kit and walked beside the young and beautiful woman.

When they saw the "Cursed Children" covered in garbage and reeking of filth behind Rentaro and Tendo Kisara, they frowned.

Because Luo Mio is a very famous figure in the entire police force, and the most notable thing about him is that he loves the "Cursed Children" very much.

He had also chatted with Luo Mio during a commissioned mission, and his impression of Luo Mio was that she was very gentle and kind.

Later, I heard from a colleague that Luo Mio had driven the mall manager to mental illness in a shopping mall and had also sent all the police officers who were standing nearby to a holmium mine.

Later, when he learned that Luo Mio did this because the police were chasing a "Cursed Children" who had run into the city from the Outer Area, the manager even verbally abused the child.

Luo Mio then got angry.

Perhaps Luo Mio's angry expression now is the same as his angry expression in the mall back then.

That's what the young police officer thought.

His eyes fell once more on the group of children who were silently sobbing and shedding tears, and the police officer unconsciously tightened his grip on the young woman's bleeding.

Before he became a police officer, he was one of those who hated the "Cursed Children".

But it wasn't until later, after living with his "Initiator" for a period of time, that the hatred in his heart slowly disappeared.

Because he already understood one thing.

The "Cursed Children" is human, just like him!

Just as the police officers were stopping the bleeding of the young, beautiful woman who had fainted from the pain, Luo Mio looked at the wealthy man and the boy standing next to him, and then gave a strangely gentle smile.

Luo Mio said with a kind smile on her face.

"Little friend, come here quickly."

Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, the little boy trembled.

"What do you want to do!"

The wealthy man quickly shielded his child.

Luo Mio remained silent, then pulled out another replica handgun from somewhere and shot the wealthy man in the right eye.

BBs were fired immediately.

"Pfft!"

A sound rang out, and crimson blood flowed from the wealthy man's eyes.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Luo Mio's decisive and bloody actions startled those around her who had been speaking ill of the "Cursed Children," causing them to quickly retreat.

Fearing that his actions and words might attract Luo Mio's attention, he lowered his head even further.

Luo Mio put away the gun and smiled kindly at the boy.

"Little friend, come here, let's play a game."

Hearing his father's screams beside him, the boy, who was usually very arrogant outside, at school, and at home, was now trembling violently with fear at Luo Mio's feet.

Because he was afraid of Luo Mio, the boy could only obediently listen to Luo Mio and walk towards him step by step.

Luo Mio smiled gently at the mischievous child.

"Brother, let's play a game."

"Go stand where you want."

Then he gestured to the open space not far away.

Because of their fear of Luo Mio, the mischievous child obediently stood over there.

Looking at the boy standing there motionless, Luo Mio turned to the children who were being protected by Rentaro and Tendo Kisara.

"Brother Miohua..."

When he saw Luo Mio walk over, Rentaro also looked at him and spoke.

"..."

She gently patted his shoulder, and Luo Mio resumed her usual kind and gentle smile.

Then he looked at the short-haired girl who was the first to be hit by the overturned trash can by the naughty child and waved to her.

Looking at Luo Mio's gentle smile, and recalling the lake where Luo Mio had stood up for them earlier, they felt a surge of emotion.

The short-haired girl stood up timidly and walked beside Luo Mio.

Looking at her Luo Mio spoke.

"What's your name?"

"Baixi..."

"Baixi Xi." Luo Mio gently touched the short-haired girl's hair, which was wet from the dirty water.

What kind of animal factor are you?

"... Grandpa said it was a kangaroo."

"Kangaroo."
