To Arrange Without Care
Chapter 4
When Gamma Ceti found out that the orphanage had been set on fire, she was stunned.
There were so many children here, and it was at this time when everyone was asleep?
Even if it was an extreme measure to hunt her down, it was not to the extent of dragging the entire orphanage into the sea of fire, right?
Crazy … This was really crazy!
She stood still for a few seconds until she saw the black smoke floating in from the window. Only then did she realize what she should do next.
Her personality was not a large-scale healing skill that could heal people in a second. It was not even enough for her to carry everyone out one by one.
Gamma Ceti did not think for too long before she made up her mind. Her personality determined that she would not stand by and do nothing.
Although the root cause of this arson could be partly due to her … but seeing the director and the man who did not look like a good person sneaking around in the middle of the night, it was obvious that they were not here to talk about serious work.
So even if she did not stay in the archive room tonight and obediently stayed in the room to sleep, they would definitely do something bad.
The young girl ran to the end of the corridor, and a large spiral marble staircase appeared in front of her. She was going to the surveillance room, where the spare keys for each room were stored. She could unlock the door. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how she could break the metal lock with her bare hands when the time came.
With great effort, she used her short legs to climb up the staircase railing and lay down. Then, she grabbed the railing with both hands and kicked hard with her head facing forward. Her whole body slid down the cold spiral 'path' like a cannonball!
To be honest, this was a very dangerous move, but it was a matter of life and death, she could not care less. Besides, Gamma Ceti was very confident in her ability to maintain her balance. She would definitely be able to stop in time …
"Ouch!"
Someone put a dirty towel on the handrail and it suddenly flew onto Gamma Ceti's face. She suddenly lost her vision. When she tried to pull the towel off, the end of the handrail had already flashed under her body!
And so … she flew out without any surprise, smashing into the ground with a teeth-numbing sound. The thick smell of burnt dust in the surroundings immediately seeped into her nostrils.
"F * ck … Which cleaner did this to me …"
Gamma Ceti trembled and touched her mouth. She had a lisp when she spoke just now!
Fortunately, it was only her left canine tooth and not her front teeth. She would be able to grow them back in two days.
But the worst thing was that she had used her arm to protect her head in an emergency, which caused her right forearm to droop abnormally. She felt a piercing pain when she moved a little.
At this time, someone ran in front of her and squatted down to help her up. "Hey, child, are you okay?"
When she looked up, she saw a young face full of concern. Even though it was covered in soot, the girl still recognized that he was the teacher here. He usually taught the children mathematics lessons, although it was just some basic content.
"I'm okay.
At the same time, blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth due to his broken teeth.
The young man looked like he was about to go crazy. "Your mouth is bleeding?
Are you hurt somewhere?
Teeth or tongue? "
"Teeth."
"That's not too bad!
Bite your clothes first and don't talk anymore. You can stop the bleeding when you get out … You're too reckless, child!
If you bite off your tongue, you'll die easily! "
The young math teacher quickly taught her how to deal with this emergency. "Do you have a handkerchief with you?"
"No."
"What about water?
Wetting your clothes will have the same effect. "
"… I don't have water either."
Gamma Ceti answered obediently, but the teacher looked very anxious. He gave her a wet handkerchief and said, "In this case, use this to cover your mouth and nose and immediately lie down. Remember, don't walk while standing. Crawl toward the emergency light exit. See, there's a green light in the smoke!"
Gamma Ceti realized something. "Teacher, what about you?
Are you going to save people? "
"Of course!"
The teacher replied without hesitation. "But child, don't worry. I have a [Super Patience] personality!
Although I'm not a professional hero, I'll be fine! "
He patted the key on his waist and motioned Gamma Ceti to hurry up and leave.
At this time, the sea of fire had spread from the outside to the first floor. Some people who were awakened wanted to run out in panic, but their panicked figures disappeared in the billowing smoke.
The girl agreed. The appearance of this person made her relax a little. At least she was not trying to save people alone.
So she crawled a few steps forward according to the teacher's request. When she looked back, she found that the thick smoke had blocked her view. The young math teacher was no longer there. Apparently, he had run to save people.
Shi Shuanyi clutched the wet handkerchief tightly, careful not to breathe in too much smoke and dust. Her personality allowed her to control the time her body breathed in, greatly slowing down the speed at which she breathed in the smoke and dust. It should not leave any irreversible damage to her body.
But since the teacher gave her a handkerchief, she would use it well.
Wait!
Handkerchief?
The girl was dumbfounded. That teacher … Was there only one piece of wet cloth on his body?
Thinking of this, she hesitated for a few seconds and finally turned back.
I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.
The teacher was going to save people, but before he left, he gave her the chance to live?
Gamma Ceti suddenly felt bad. Plus, it did not matter if she used the handkerchief or not. Naturally, she wanted to go back and see if she could help.
She ran up the stairs and quickly caught up with the young teacher who was covering his mouth and nose with his sleeve. When he saw Gamma Ceti, he was furious. He shouted in a muffled voice, "Didn't I tell you to leave?"
Gamma Ceti was very sincere. "I'm here to help you."
"I think you're going to piss me off!" the man said angrily. Why was this child so stubborn?!
Gamma Ceti seemed to think the situation was not chaotic enough. She stuffed the handkerchief into the man's hand and ran upstairs. "Here's your handkerchief."
"Wh … Wait, stop!
It's dangerous! "

Accompanied by the soaring flames, the huge building that was usually filled with children's laughter turned into a monstrous sea of fire tonight.
"Firefighter Hero" Wan Tao Yongze frowned as he stood beside the golden-red fire engine. The reason why he didn't do anything was that a transparent cover had covered the entire orphanage at some point in time, preventing the people inside from coming out and the rescuers from outside from entering.
His colleagues had tried to use all kinds of methods to break the cover, but none of them worked.
"Captain!" A young man with sweat all over his forehead ran to him. "Backup from above is here!"
Wantao's eyebrows immediately relaxed. He looked in the direction of his subordinate and saw an ordinary brown car speeding over. Two familiar faces jumped out of the car.
When Wantao Yongze saw who it was, he subconsciously exclaimed, "Eraser!
And — Orumit! "
"Hahaha!
Don't worry!
Because — I'm here! "
The muscular man, who was dressed like a comic book hero, was not afraid of the fire. Instead, he laughed loudly.
Miraculously, the rescue workers, who were originally anxious and uneasy, all felt relieved when they saw him.
Yes, he was the strongest hero in the world. No matter where he went, people couldn't help but feel at ease.
As the person with the highest position in the rescue team, Wan Tao Yongze hurriedly went up to explain the situation. After listening, Olumet's eyes flashed with a green light. "Could it be an isolation barrier made by a personality?
Your attacks are ineffective … Then, Aizawa, why don't you give it a try? "
Standing beside Orumit, Kota Aizawa, who was as petite as a girl compared to him, sighed. He was a young man with dispirited hair, a long and loose bandage wrapped around his neck, and a pair of goggles on his forehead.
"I thought you had something up your sleeve. Why are you laughing so boldly …"
Orumit did not blush when he heard this. Instead, he said righteously, "Saving people is more important. Don't worry about these things!"
Aizawa did not say anything else. He just pushed down his goggles and put them on as he ran into the sea of fire.
— What I care about is why you can show off while I can't!
An invisible force flashed in Kota Aizawa's eyes. It was the "personality" called [Erase Personality]. Because of this ability, which could temporarily erase most of his personality like an eraser, his hero name was very casual — [Eraser].
After Aizawa used his personality and glared at the huge transparent cover for a few seconds, everyone heard a crisp sound of something breaking in the air. The cover was broken, and the heat wave and the sea of fire suddenly spilled out in all directions!
Kota Aizawa jumped back and temporarily avoided the sharp edge of the sea of fire. However, Orumit did the opposite. He did not avoid it and rushed straight in!
"Quick, quick!
Put out the fire! "
Wantao Yongze roared. His arms turned into several huge streams of water and poured on the burning building out of thin air.
The firefighters who had been ready for a long time quickly picked up their water guns and fire extinguishers and alternated between putting out the fire and rushing in to save people.
Soon, the firefighters ran out with the survivors on their backs. Orumit was even busier. He was extremely efficient at saving people. No matter how dangerous the fire was, it could not stop him. On average, he saved a person every six seconds.
Gamma Ceti was also one of the people who was successfully saved. When Orumit removed the door of the water room where they were hiding, he was shocked at the number of children in the room. There were so many of them!
The brave math teacher was also saved. Although he used a handkerchief, he still fainted after inhaling a lot of smoke and dust.
Gamma Ceti carried him on her shoulder and organized the rest of the children to take refuge in the water room near the door where there was a temporary water source.
Some children were so scared that they cried. They were knocked out by a grumpy girl and carried away.
"Be quiet if you don't want to die!
If anyone dares to say another word, I'll throw him into the sea of fire! "
She had to roar fiercely. Perhaps it was because of the red flames around her, some people saw that her eyes were emitting an emotionless cold light.
The orphans did not understand why their companion with no personality had a terrifying, beast-like aura. This made them involuntarily obey the order and collectively retreat to the water room.
Along the way, they picked up a few teachers and children who were still breathing. In the end, in order to prevent the smoke from entering, they had to use wet clothes and quilts to block the door. Until the moment when Orumit removed the door with his bare hands came.
After the crisis was over, Gamma Ceti sat on the ground with her face covered in dust. She was covered in a blanket that was given to her by an unknown rescuer. She held a glass of cold water expressionlessly and looked at the burning and collapsed building not far away.
"How do you feel now?"
A man's voice suddenly came from behind her. The girl subconsciously tensed up and immediately realized that she had overreacted.
She turned her head and found that it was an expressionless man who was asking her the question. He scratched his chin full of stubble, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Gamma Ceti recognized that he was one of the professional heroes who came to rescue her. She was not so nervous anymore.
"What do you mean by that?"
"I heard from the other children."
Kota Aizawa squatted down, broke a weed, and played with it in his mouth. "They said that the situation was urgent. It was you who fiercely saved them and several teachers."
Gamma Ceti shook her head. "I was just saving myself. They were all incidental."
Hearing this, Aizawa burst out laughing. Gamma Ceti did not understand what was so funny.
"It's been hard on you, child," he said. "But from this incident, perhaps you have the potential to become a professional hero."
Gamma Ceti certainly knew that in this supernatural society, professional heroes were the most sought after profession. It combined people's yearning for the strong, their love for their idols, and the pursuit of noble values. But Gamma Ceti always felt that she would not necessarily become a hero in the traditional sense.
She was just an ordinary person, an ordinary person.
