Chapter 59: descendants of god
The next day was back to school.
Huo Xingchao's wounds had already scabbed over. Compared with normal humans, his self-healing ability was terrifying.
Of course, compared to normal humans, his emotional abilities are also frighteningly indifferent.
Because from a very young age, he discovered that once his emotions fluctuated extremely violently and he couldn't control himself, he would become a beast.
Not to mention the pain brought by the process of beastization, the consequences of beastization in a human city are not something that a half-beast of his childhood can bear.
Therefore, since he was sensible, he has worked hard to control his emotional ups and downs. Controlling and controlling, until today, turned into an indifferent half-human half-beast.
When Huo Xingchao arrived at the school, there were already many people in the martial arts field training their physical fitness.
Turning to see him, they all greeted respectfully.
Nolan School is a bit special in the aristocratic area. Although it is still a secondary school, because it is very close to the civilian area, the environment and the crowd are obviously different from other schools in the inner city, so many aristocratic students are reluctant. Apply for this school.
But for some civilians, this is the most appropriate place.
The goods in the surrounding shops are cheap, and they often deal with some defective products that the nobles do not want. However, these defective products are also much better in quality than those in the civilian areas. The most important thing is that they do not need money.
It's just piled up in the sorting area next to the garbage pool. As long as you pay a sum of money, you can go in and pick it up.
Therefore, Nolan School also has a somewhat insulting nickname in the mouths of outsiders - "the cattle herding class that picks up garbage".
But in fact, in the case of such a bad student source, this school can still maintain the second-level level all year round, which is also worthy of appreciation.
The management system of Nolan School is very strict, and strength is respected, and there are basically no privileges, so those students just saw
Huo Xingchao, no matter what he thought in his heart, on the surface, he greeted him very respectfully.
As a student who dropped out of Imperial School Class A, Huo Xingchao was indeed very strong and kept a low profile.
In addition to the necessary class time, he usually appears in the martial arts field or the mind power room, or when others are serious about the underground war book, he will come out to fight. At other times, he basically can't find anyone.
Isa also squatted at the gate for several days, and finally saw Huo Xingchao who was leaving the school the afternoon before the rest day.
When the girl saw the familiar voice and shadow, she ignored the etiquette and ran up to stop him.
"Mr. Huo!"
The teenager stopped, frowned, his expression was cold,
"What's your business?"
"I have something to ask you."
"Sorry, I don't have time, you can check it yourself."
"Mr. Huo! This matter is really important to me, and I believe it is also important to you. Can you tell me what happened to my eyes? Mr. Huo!"
......
That day, after returning from outside the city, Isa tossed and turned for a long time.
She kept thinking, why did that young man look at herself with such an expression.
She had never seen him before, and even after hearing Zhi Ya talking about his condition, she could definitely be sure that she had never had any interaction with him, but he knew about the condition of his eyes.
know so clearly.
Isa once asked Uncle Shi why her eyes were sometimes out of her control. That kind of weird feeling didn't seem to be injured at all, but as if it had a life of its own.
Uncle Shi just smiled and said that this is a normal situation after an injury, so she should not think about it.
Don't think too much, how can you not think too much.
She tried her best to ignore it, but the strange feeling was really wrong, and it made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
So that day, when Huo Xingchao mentioned his eyes, Isa found a breakthrough for the first time.
I don't know if it was out of an inexplicable instinct, Isa subconsciously chose to hide from my grandfather and uncle Shi, and secretly went to check Huoxingchao this person.
The findings of the survey are simple.
An ordinary person in a civilian area, his father died and his mother is unknown. He used to go to the Imperial School. Later, because of family problems, he had to transfer to Nolan School.
It is also because of family problems that he often goes out of the city to earn living expenses at home.
Now living with stepmother and stepsister.
But his stepmother was not easy.
Isa is surprised to discover that his stepmother is one of his father's former mistresses.
—It was not found, but she found it herself.
Since she couldn't see any clues in the documents, she went to Huo Xingchao's house in person after leaving school yesterday afternoon.
The living conditions of the commoners and the nobles are quite different.
The road was not so smooth, and on rainy days, the wheels of the carriage would splash with muddy water. There are simple stalls and small shops on both sides of the road, the alley is very narrow, and the houses are small and crowded.
Then, she saw the woman.
Behind the low courtyard gate, the woman was sitting on a small stool sewing a quilt, her hair in a bun, and her face was very familiar.
Isa remembered that several years ago, she secretly followed her father to see this woman, and at that time she knew that this was her father's hidden mistress.
But later, she seemed to have disappeared, and the small yard moved in with new women, one after another, as if it was some kind of reincarnation that she couldn't stop.
"Ermi, do your eyes hurt? Mom will put a compress on you."
The woman stopped the movement in her hand, her eyes fell in front of her, she was a little worried, and her voice was very gentle.
Isa followed her gaze and saw a little girl.
The little girl looked about three or four years old, tied with two pigtails, had a cute face and a clear voice, "No pain."
She raised her head, curious,
"Mom, what color is your hair? Is it blond too?"
"No mom, mom is light brown."
"But why, why only Ermi's hair is blond? Is everyone's hair a different color?"
......
Blonde.
Isa thought aimlessly, her hair is also blond.
But this little girl asked, can't see the color?
She had just injured her eye before, and when she received the first treatment, she didn't seem to be able to see the color...etc.
......
blond. Can't see color.
Isa suddenly felt a little apprehensive.
At that moment, what flashed in her mind was a very, very crazy idea.
She was so crazy that she thought it was absurd, but it was like taking root, deeply ingrained in her mind and lingering.
Therefore, she only came to see Huo Xingchao today.
The teenager raised his eyelids and said in a light tone, "You want to know, why are you asking me? What obligation do I have to tell you?"
"Mr. Huo..."
The other party ignored her completely and walked away.
Isa couldn't keep up with him, and she was really anxious. In the end, she didn't care about etiquette, stopped and shouted at his back,
"Mr. Huo, can you tell me, what is the relationship between my eyes and your sister's eyes? What is the relationship between me and your sister?!"
......
"Mr. Huo!"
"If it is really because of me that your sister has become what she is now, I am willing to make up for her!"
......
The boy stopped.
Isa stopped her voice, panted and supported the tree trunk beside her, looking anxious, "Can you tell me?"
Huo Xingchao raised his eyes, turned around, and walked towards her step by step.
His expression was still very light, but there was a strange color in his eyes. When he walked to the girl's side, he stopped and his eyes fell lightly on her eyes.
Those eyes are really beautiful.
Deep, secluded, as if filled with thousands of stars.
The boy bent down and said softly, "Then would you like to give her those eyes back?"
......
He found the prescription and the eye change.
He also found a doctor willing to take action.
He even found a place to protect Ermi.
And now, he found the eyes.
At the age of fourteen, Isa knew for the first time that her life was not as sunny as she thought.
What she believed in, respected, and fought for all seemed to be an elusive mirage overnight.
Can't tell if it's real or fake.
It was also at the age of fourteen that for the first time she looked so deeply into the boy's eyes.
Although many years later, her world was silent black and white, and she will always remember those eyes.
Deep dark green with a hint of red.
Like a distant landscape.
Isa once thought that these eyes are really beautiful, and those with such eyes must have been favored by God.
But after that incident, she suddenly discovered that in this world, the things that God most favors will never last forever.
Or, it can only last forever in a solidified way.
like God Himself.
She thought, it turns out that she loved God too.
