Alien world

Chapter 1289 Chapter 211. I Remembered
"If it were me, no one from that gang would have walked out alive."

Killian gave a bloody smile: "I did it too."

It wasn't him, but when he returned to the family, he had a high fever for three days, and when he woke up, the gang had been razed to the ground.

But... that high fever also made him forget a lot of things. Many memories became blurry, such as...

Killian held his abdomen, where a centipede-like scar still remained.

Who sewed up his wound... On that cold night, his slippery intestines couldn't stop flowing out... Who was it? Why can't I remember...

The pain didn't seem that painful anymore...

Killian's forehead was covered in sweat, as if he was trapped in an unspeakable nightmare. Everything in front of him lost its sense of distance and became farther and farther away...

Killian tried to open his eyes wide, trying to see the blurry face clearly.

At this moment, Annan's face suddenly appeared in front of him.

"what happened to you?"

Killian woke up instantly, his heart beating like a person awakened.

"I……"

"You don't look good."

Killian sighed as his thoughts returned to consciousness. "Huh... a homeless boy struggling in hell is not a good memory, is it?"

"You are right, but it will also become your precious treasure."

"wealth?"

"You have been at the bottom, you understand the bottom, this is your advantage."

"Is this...is it?"

No one has ever said this before, Killian subconsciously wanted to question it...but Annan had no reason to lie to himself.

"Looking at your condition, forget it today and go back to have a good rest."

Black Widow said with a hint of something. He was sure that Killian would have an unforgettable dream about himself after he returned.

Oh, no, it’s about Annan’s dream.

"Um……"

Killian didn't refuse, turned and walked out, looking like something was missing.

After returning to the Golden Palace, Killian hurriedly said goodbye to Annan and walked towards his residence.

Maids and servants were running back and forth on the corridor, and Killian came back to his senses a little: "What are you busy with?"

"Master Killian, Elvis Raymond is preparing dinner."

"What dinner?"

"A dinner to welcome Lord Annan Reeves. Many nobles and their families will be present..."

Killian returned to his bedroom and asked the guards to wake him up an hour before the banquet was to begin. He lay down on the bed without even taking off his coat and fell into a deep sleep.

……

"Greyhound, greyhound... hush... greyhound..."

Killian was awakened by a childish cry, followed by an indescribable coldness.

It’s so cold...why is it so cold?

It was as if the soul was flowing out through the gap...

"I really admire you. You fell asleep just lying at the door." The voice continued, stretching out its foot to fiddle with Killian.

Killian, who was lying on the ground, turned to lie on his back, and the wound on his abdomen was exposed without reservation, and he screamed. The dirty boy shouted "Greyhound is dead" and ran into the leaky hut. Not long after, a group of children ran out and carried him into the hut in a hurry.

Killian, feeling as if his soul was frozen, tried to open his eyes a crack, but the concerned face in front of him froze his thoughts.

"An... Nan...?"

"How pitiful, the greyhound is already talking nonsense..." said the little girl next to him.

The boy with black hair and black eyes, who looked exactly like Annan but was dressed like a beggar, refused to give up. He asked the children to bring needle and thread, stuffed Killian's frozen intestines into his stomach, sewed it up with a needle, and finally smeared a handful of ashes on it.

The children were left to their fate, but the greyhound miraculously survived the night.

The boy who looks like Annan is called Dans, and he is the leader of this group of kids.

He took care of the greyhound all night, keeping an eye on his condition, feeding him water, and preventing him from rolling over and tearing his wounds. When he found that his body temperature was terribly low, he quickly ran into the snow outside to fetch firewood.

The greyhound survived but was unable to work.

He could only lie there and watch the other children busying about, picking up boards to nail into the gaps between the broken houses, stealing firewood and coal to burn, melting snow into water, and cooking grain into paste.

With one less person working, they have more to do.

But the children had no complaints. The adults no longer wanted them, and they could no longer give up on themselves.

After a few days of recuperation, the greyhound was able to walk again.

That day, Gillis ran in with a head full of snowflakes and shouted excitedly in the yard: "The Wild Wolf Gang is hiring!"

They knew that the gangs were full of bad people, but as long as they joined the gang, they could survive the winter.

Dance decided to take the children to try their luck. Bernice, the only girl among them, asked, "What if they bully us?"

"I will protect you," Dance said firmly.

Bernice helped the greyhound up, and the children wrapped themselves tightly and followed Dans out, like a flock of sheep running into a pack of wolves, and were easily controlled by the Wild Wolf Gang.

The huge gap between children and adults made Dance's resistance seem like a joke. Bernice and another girl were dragged away by the grinning gang, and soon the girls' cries were heard outside.

Dans wanted to rush forward and fight, but was kicked back by the gang members at the door. He huddled up like a shrimp, holding his stomach.

They locked the children in their room.

The children were trembling, and Gillis, who had been so happy just a moment ago, was now completely frightened and talking nonsense.

Only Dans, who had gotten up, refused to give up and told them that they still had a chance to escape.

The Wild Wolf Gang was not on guard against the group of children, and there was not even any guard. This gave them the last chance.

After waiting quietly until late at night, Dans pulled out the iron piece hidden in his sleeve, cut open the bolt blocking the door, and led them out.

When they ran to the door, Dance stopped and told them: "You run first, I want to rescue Bernice and the others!"

The children turned and ran, but found a guard at the door. Gillis hugged the guard's waist and told them to hurry up.

The remaining children ran out of the door and fled in all directions.

Because Greyhound was still very weak and ran the slowest, he was soon kicked to the ground by the gang members who arrived. His sutured wounds were instantly torn open, and the copper chain he had been wearing around his neck was also broken.

He was caught and thrown in front of Danse, who was beaten and covered in blood.

Just when the greyhound was about to be beaten, Dans, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, yelled at them: "Don't hit him! His wounds haven't healed yet. If you kill him, you won't make any money!"

The thugs of the Wild Wolf Gang turned their hatred to Danse and swung their whips even harder. The Greyhound that escaped was put into a cage.

He had not recovered yet and soon developed a high fever, and his consciousness became blurred. After an unknown amount of time, he heard a whisper full of murderous intent.

"Kill everyone here, leaving no one alive."

Then, the owner of the voice picked him up and said to himself with heartache: "My lady, you have made the young master suffer so much..."
