When Andwar returned home, the sky was already dark.

"Where's Scorching And Freezing?" He glanced around but didn't see Bombardment Scorch.

The rest of the children only exchanged worried glances, and no one responded.

Andwar finally found Bombardment Scorch in the training room with his back facing him.

"Which hospital is she in?

I want to see her. "

As soon as he opened the door, he heard his youngest son say this, his voice sounded like he was about to cry.

"She has been transferred to another hospital," Andwar replied.

"Where did she go?" Bombardment Scorch turned around, his eyes were still red.

"… The hospital she was transferred to asked me to keep the address a secret." He remembered Dreamland's advice and could only answer this way.

"The person in charge of that hospital is an authoritative expert — she will be fine."

Looking at his son's pitiful appearance, he still couldn't bear it, so he dryly added this sentence.

But this sentence, in Bombardment Scorch's ears, was undoubtedly perfunctory.

"Your mother is sick, she was sent to recuperate for a while."

"Don't ask so much — she will come back when she's fine."

… But so many years have passed.

She never came back.

What about Kanai?

She went to a place he didn't know, and then what?

Will she come back?

The words of the past inexplicably overlapped with the present.

The negative emotions he had accumulated all day finally exploded.

His childhood friends, the games he liked, his weak but gentle mother, his only good friend … These were all stripped away from his life one by one.

The only thing left in his life was the perpetually gray training room that smelled of burning.

Also lingering in his mind were the cold eyes and endless orders of the person in front of him.

… Maybe an ending like this was what he wanted?

Bombardment Scorch, who was unable to extricate himself from his emotions, couldn't help but think so.

Maybe he wanted to be alone forever, to be his proudest tool — that's right, wasn't this what he always wanted?

Surpassing the No.1 Hero — he couldn't do it himself, so he created the "most perfect work" to help him fulfill his wish.

"You're lying!" He couldn't help but shout.

"Actually, you just don't want me to look for her, right?

Actually, this is what you wanted, right?

Whether it's Kanai or Mother … you don't want them to come back, do you? "

"Anyway, I'm just your tool, right?

Everything, except for the things that are necessary to surpass the No.1 hero, will be erased by you?! "

"How can someone like you be called a hero?!"

He almost shouted himself hoarse, as if he wanted to vent all the resentment that had been pent up for so many years.

"Although your personality is like fire, you are simply a cold-blooded animal!"

Pa!

The crisp sound of a slap echoed in the air.

Bombardment Scorch's voice came to an abrupt end. He covered his face and stubbornly stared at his father with his different-colored eyes.

"Is this how you talk to your father?" After listening to such a long list of complaints, Andwar didn't defend himself, but only warned in a low voice.

"What do you know?

You're just talking nonsense there. "

"What do I know?

Aren't you the one who doesn't want to tell me anything? "Bombardment Scorch didn't admit defeat and mocked." 'Don't ask so much,' right?

Isn't this what you want? "

Andwar was silent for a moment.

"Then I'm doing it for your own good."

"For my own good?

For my own good, let me go see Kanai! "Bombardment Scorch said agitatedly.

"You can't even confirm the safety of your friend —"

"She's not your friend," Andwar said firmly.

In the end, he still didn't believe that Kanna Tomosuke could recover in just two years and really get into the Xiong Ying Department.

A person who only awakened her personality at the age of 13 and suffered such a serious injury — "You'll make more valuable friends in the future," he said.

This sentence further confirmed Bombardment Scorch's thoughts.

"More valuable friends?

Like Fireworks, a 'friend' with power, influence, and a strong personality? "

He said sarcastically, "Then it's best if you can facilitate a 'personality marriage' in the end. That's the best way to go, right?

Right? "

"I didn't say that."

"Then why can't I be friends with Kanai?" Bombardment Scorch didn't back down.

"Why can't I go see her?"

"It's very simple, she doesn't want to see you right now." Andwar was getting impatient and answered casually.

He didn't expect his obedient youngest son to suddenly make things difficult for him.

After his tough methods didn't work, he began to feel helpless.

But when he heard this, Bombardment Scorch suddenly fell silent.

"… Is that so?" he whispered in a daze. He didn't look at Andwar in front of him and left the room in a daze.

Doesn't want to … see me?

This was the thought that he had in his heart, but he didn't want to admit it.

Yes.

Kanai will definitely blame me.

If I were there … those people would definitely be easily dealt with.

But … but where was I at that time?

When she needed me the most …

He knew that the confrontation between him and Andwar was just a useless venting of emotions.

If at that time, if at that time, he could have shown the same courage as now — maybe he could have stepped out of the door and turned everything around.

Maybe he and Kanai could have laughed and gone home like before.

The candy in her pocket seemed to be endless, and the sweetness seemed to be endless as it seeped into the bottom of his heart.

Hong Jiao Leng locked himself in the dark room, reminiscing and blaming himself until the dawn of the next day.

The next morning, he left the house.

But he found that Kanai's house was empty.

He heard from the old lady next door that the family was moving to another city because of some unforeseen circumstances, so they were in a hurry to sell the house.

The old lady said that the girl was injured so badly that she had to participate in an experimental treatment. She also said that the family might not come back.

But in the end, she seemed to have remembered something. She had already entered the house, but she turned back and said, "Oh, by the way, before Yosuke's family left, they told me that if a boy with half white and half red hair came looking for them, I should tell him …" She paused and thought for a moment.

"Kanai said, 'I will go to Xiong Ying — please believe me and wait for me there.'"

The old lady had finished her task and returned to her house.

Bombardment Scorch was left standing in front of the door for a long time.

Pedestrians came and went on the road, and no one knew what the lonely boy was thinking.

But from that day onwards, the whole family noticed that something had changed about Bombardment Scorch.

He never mentioned anything related to Kanai again. He continued to train his personality as hard as before, but it was only limited to the abilities related to ice.

His relationship with Andwar became worse and worse. But the outburst like that in the training room did not happen again.

He stubbornly stuck to his own path, as if resisting Andwar had become part of his training.

But in his dreams at night, he would still dream of the girl who would smile and show her two small canine teeth.

She was laughing and playing not far away, just like in the past. But unlike in the past, he did not dare to approach her.

Just like how he did not know how to face his mother.

"She doesn't want to see you." This sentence was like a haze that shrouded his heart.

He did not dare to imagine if Kanai would look at him with cold resentment, just like how his mother looked at him when she poured boiling water on his face.

Now, he was alone again.

And all this was the result of him obeying that person like a fool.

Was it not his bloodline that brought all this pain?

Was it not him who took away everything from him?

— Whenever he thought of using his ability, a strong resistance rose uncontrollably.

… Of course, he would surpass him.

But I will never become someone like him.

Therefore.

Of course, he would not use his ability. He wanted to use the other half of his ability to surpass him and become a truly great hero.

In order to achieve this goal, entering the Hero League was a must.

But.

Reuniting in Xiong Ying?

He did not dare to think of such a possibility.

His reason was more inclined to believe that this was just an attempt to comfort him. But this understanding undoubtedly made him more miserable.

Kanai, please let me see you there.

But in the depths of his heart, there was a small voice shouting.

There, the girl's warm smile bathed in the sunlight, as if it was shining.

"Please believe in me, and wait for me there." He could almost hear the tone in which Kanna was speaking in when she said this.

"Yes.

I believe you. "He silently responded in his heart.
