To Arrange Without Care
Chapter 45
This was the anti-theft badge.
She used her short legs to climb up the handrail of the stairs and lay down.
Then, she hugged the handrail with both hands, pushed her head forward, and her feet backward. Her whole body followed the cold spiral "path."
She slid down like a cannonball!
To be honest, this was a very dangerous move, but it was a matter of life and death. Moreover, Gamma Ceti was very confident in her ability to maintain balance.
She could definitely stop in time...
"Ouch!"
Someone had placed a dirty towel on the armrest, and it suddenly flew towards Shi Shunyi's face. She lost her vision for a moment, and when she managed to pull off the towel, the end of the armrest had already flashed past her body!
So... she flew out without any surprise and hit the floor with a teeth-numbing sound. The strong smell of burnt dust around her immediately entered her breath.
"F * ck... Which cleaner did this to me..."
Gamma Ceti trembled and touched her mouth. She had a lisp when she was talking just now!
But fortunately, it was only the left canine tooth this time and not the front tooth. It would grow back in two days.
But the bad thing was that she had used her arm to protect her head in an emergency just now, causing her right forearm to droop abnormally.
The slightest movement would cause a piercing pain.
At this moment, someone ran in front of her.
He squatted down and helped her up.
"Hey,
Child, are you okay? "
Gamma Ceti looked up.
She found that it was a young face full of concern.
Although it was full of smoke and black dust,
The girl still recognized him as the teacher here. He usually taught the children mathematics lessons, although it was just some basic content.
"I'm fine."
Gamma Ceti answered with a lisp. At the same time, blood flowed from the corner of her mouth because her teeth were broken.
The young man looked like he was going crazy. "Your mouth is bleeding?
Are you hurt somewhere?
Teeth or tongue? "
"Teeth."
"That's not too bad!
Bite your clothes first and stop talking. You can stop the bleeding when you get out... You're too reckless!
If you bite your tongue, you can easily die! "
The young mathematics teacher quickly taught her how to deal with this emergency. "Do you have a handkerchief on you?"
"No."
"Where is the water?
Wetting clothes can also have the same effect. "
"… There's no water either."
Gamma Ceti answered obediently, but the teacher looked very anxious. She gave her a wet handkerchief and said, "In this case, use this to cover your mouth and nose, and then immediately lie down. Remember, don't walk while standing. Crawl toward the emergency light exit. Do you see it? There's a green light in the smoke!"
Gamma Ceti seemed to have realized something. "What about you, teacher?
Are you going to save someone? "
"Of course!"
The teacher replied without hesitation, "But don't worry, my child, I'm super patient!
Even though he's not a professional hero, he'll be fine! "
As he spoke, he patted the keys on his waist, signaling Gamma Ceti to leave quickly.
Because at this time, the sea of fire had already spread from the outside to the first floor, some people who had been awakened wanted to run out in fear. 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 working hard 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 vision, and the young math teacher was no longer in the same place. Apparently, he had run to save people.
Gamma Ceti clutched the wet handkerchief tightly, careful not to breathe in too much smoke. Her personality allowed her to control her body for a long time, and greatly reduced the speed at which she breathed in smoke. It should not leave any irreversible damage to her body.
But since the teacher gave her a handkerchief, she should 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, whether or not she used the handkerchief did not make much of a difference. Naturally, she wanted to go back and see if there was anything she could do to 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 quickly?"
Gamma Ceti was very sincere. "I'm here to help you."
"I think you're going to piss me off!" The man said exasperatedly. Why was this child so stubborn?!
Gamma Ceti seemed to think that 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.
"Firefighter hero" Wantao Yongze frowned as he stood next to the red-gold fire truck. The reason why he did not do anything was that a layer of transparent cover had covered the entire orphanage. The people inside could not come out, and the rescuers outside could not get in.
His colleagues had tried to use all kinds of methods to break the cover, but none of them worked.
"Captain!" A young man with a head full of sweat ran in front of him. "Reinforcements from above are here!"
Wantao's eyebrows instantly 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 clearly 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 highest-ranking member of the rescue team, Wantao Yongze quickly went up to explain the situation. After listening, Orumit's eyes flashed with a green light. "Is it an isolation cover made by personalities?
Your attacks are ineffective … Then, Aizawa, why don't you try? "
Standing beside Orumit, Kota Aizawa, who was as petite as a young girl, 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 some ideas. You were 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 toward the sea of fire.
— What I care about is why you can act cool while I can't!
An invisible force flashed in Kota Aizawa's eyes. It was the "personality" called [Erase Personality]. It was because this ability could temporarily erase most of his personality like an eraser, so his hero name was very casual — [Eraser].
After Aizawa used his personality and glared at the huge transparent cover for more than ten 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, 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, alternating 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 one person every six seconds.
Gamma Ceti was also one of the people who was successfully saved. When Orumit took down the door of the drinking 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 drinking room area 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 surrounding red flames, 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 her orders and retreat to the drinking room.
Along the way, they picked up several 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 took down the door with his bare hands.
After the crisis was over, Gamma Ceti sat on the ground with her face covered in dust. She was covered in a blanket given 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 superpowered 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.
From the moment she was born without anyone's blessing, this was already destined.
Although the root cause of this arson may have been partly due to her … but looking at the director and the man who did not look like good people 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 were definitely going to do something bad.
The young girl ran to the end of the corridor, and the wide spiral marble staircase appeared in front of her. She was going to the surveillance room, where the spare keys to each room were stored. Otherwise, Gamma Ceti would have a hard time explaining how she, who had no personality, could crush the metal lock with her bare hands.
She struggled to climb up the staircase handrail with her short legs and lay down. Then she hugged the handrail with both hands, and with her head facing the front and feet facing backward, her whole body slid down the cold spiral "path" like a cannonball!
To be honest, this was a very dangerous move. But at the moment, 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 could definitely stop in time …
"Ouch!"
