Counterattack of Infinite Earthlings
Chapter 255 Choice of Tribute
() "I like this sentence very much." The old goblin in purple clothes showed a particularly satisfied expression of enjoyment, "Now, it's time for us to choose a pair of brave young men and women as the 74th annual Honorary representative of Hunger Games District 12."
The big clock in the square rang twice.
"Let's do as usual, ladies first!" The old goblin named Effie Trine twisted her ass and walked to the big glass ball for lottery.
In fact, regardless of whether Effie Trine's eloquent words are still in the projected film, in Chen Yihan's view, there is only one meaning expressed:
Look, we can take your children and let them play games with their own lives, and there's nothing you can do about it.If you dare to have a little opinion, we will destroy you, there will be no one left, just like destroying the thirteenth district.
"This is an opportunity to repent, and more importantly, an opportunity to be grateful." Effie Trinne walked to the glass ball with the girl's name on it, put her hand in it, reached the bottom of the ball, and took out a piece of paper from inside. note.
After Effie Trine took out the note, all the noisy voices below suddenly disappeared, and the crowd held their breath. At this time, even a needle dropped on the ground could be clearly heard.
Chen Yihan turned his head and looked at the people around him.
Looking at their pious appearance, it is estimated that these people's hearts are churning, desperately hoping that it will not be themselves, and they must not be drawn to themselves.
The only one who was completely opposite to them was Chen Yihan.
Chen Yihan's expression was very relaxed, because he knew that he would definitely get himself a note from a man.
Effie Trine walked back to the podium again, and glanced at the poor in District 12 below with condescending eyes, enjoying the atmosphere at the moment and the expressions of the crowd below.
After a pause, she finally straightened the note and read in a clear voice: "Primrose Everdeen."
There were murmurs of dissatisfaction among the crowd. As usual, everyone thought that it was unfair for a 12-year-old child to be drawn, and that he was going to die.
Chen Yihan also followed everyone's gazes, looking at the short little girl who was not too far away from him.
Chen Yihan knew in his heart that the selected little girl was the younger sister of the heroine Katniss in this movie.
"Honey, where are you?" Effie Trine twisted her body and shouted, "Come on, come up."
Chen Yihan saw that there was no trace of blood on the little girl's face, and her clenched fists were hanging on her sides.
Her body was stiff and her steps were difficult, walking towards the podium like a soulless corpse.
"Plim, Prim!" A hoarse but sharp voice came from the crowd.
A freckled girl with tied hair and a floral dress squeezed out from the crowd, and all the other children made way for her to go straight to the podium.
Two soldiers stopped the woman who rushed out suddenly and did not allow her to take a step closer to the podium. .
The corner of Chen Yihan's mouth showed a curve that is difficult for others to check. The girl who rushed out suddenly was Katniss, the heroine in this movie.
Katniss was tightly stopped by two soldiers, unable to get close to Primrose Everdeen, she shouted anxiously: "I want to be a volunteer, I want to be a volunteer!!!"
The two soldiers were pushed away by Katniss and shouted: "I volunteer as a tribute!"
There was some confusion on stage.
District 12 has had no volunteers for decades, and the rule is almost forgotten.
As a rule, if a child, whether boy or girl, is drawn, another candidate boy or girl can take his or her place.
In other districts, it is an honor to be selected at the Harvest Festival ceremony, and many people are willing to risk their lives for it. The procedure of voluntary participation is very complicated.
But in the 12th district, "tribute" and "corpse" are almost synonymous, and volunteers have disappeared.
Effie Trine was also confused by the sudden situation, and it took a few seconds for her to react. She was surprised and said in surprise: "We have a volunteer, this... this is great!"
Effie Tling paused for a moment, and then said: "But I think it's a little problem that volunteers appeared after introducing the winners. But if there are volunteers, then we... um... Mr. Chang?" Her voice stopped, and she looked at the mayor sitting next to her.
She herself wasn't too sure about it.
"Does it matter?" The mayor looked at Katniss, "Let her come forward."
Katniss broke through the defenses of the two soldiers, ran up to Prim, squatted on the ground, put her hands on Prim's shoulders like pliers, and said seriously: "Plim, you have to leave here immediately. , let's go!"
"No, no!!" Prim yelled loudly.
"Go to Mom!" Katniss snapped, "Plim, go to Mom now, go to Mom, Prim, go!!!"
"No! No! No!!" Prim felt a huge force pulling her up and carrying her on his shoulders.
Katniss saw that Gale who suddenly rushed out had carried Prim away, and Prim waved his arms excitedly, trying not to let his voice tremble, and shouted loudly: "Plim, go find Mom!"
"That's great! Ah, that's great!" exclaimed Effie Trinket, "This is the spirit of the hunt game!" She was glad that something special was finally happening in one district.
"There has been a dramatic change in the 12th district. The first volunteer in the history of the 12th district has appeared. Bring her up!"
Katniss saw Prim being carried to her mother by Gail, and then followed the soldiers to the top of the podium.
"Come on, dear." Effie Trine ushered Katniss onto the podium and asked loudly, "What's your name?"
Chen Yihan saw that Katniss's shoulders were trembling slightly, and said nervously, "Katniss Everdeen."
"That girl must be your sister, right?" Effie Trine handed the microphone to Katniss.
Katniss nodded, "Yes."
"Come on, everyone, let's give our first volunteer, Katniss Everdeen, the latest 'tribute' with the warmest applause!" Effie Trine said in an excited voice. After speaking, she Take the lead in clapping.
In honor of District 12's enduring reputation, no one applauded, not even the most indifferent gamblers.
Maybe they met Katniss on the black market, or maybe they met Prim, the girl everyone loves.
Anyway, no matter what, at this time, there was no applause in the huge square.
Chen Yihan just saw Katniss standing there motionless.And the people next to him are expressing their inner dissatisfaction in the boldest way.
The silence from the audience indicated that they did not agree and would not condone what the Capitol had done.
This is not over yet, in the next second, something even more unexpected happened.
One raised his left hand, put the middle three fingers to his lips, and pointed at Katniss.
Then another, and another... one after another, and finally almost all of them raised their left hands towards Katniss, they put the middle three fingers to their lips, and then pointed at her.
Chen Yihan knew that it was an ancient hand gesture in District 12, it meant gratitude, reverence, and saying goodbye to the one he loved.
At this moment, Katniss seemed to be a cherished person in District 12.
"What an exciting day this is!" Effie Trine said softly while arranging her hair in order to control the situation, "but the more exciting time has come, our male tribute is about to produce!"
Effie Trine walked quickly to the glass ball on the other side, and put a hand into the glass ball where the boy's list was placed.
Effie Trine didn't dawdle this time, she directly took out a note, and then quickly walked back to the podium, opened the note, and read out the name.
"Chen Yihan!"
All eyes were on Chen Yihan.
Chen Yihan didn't know how the main god arranged it, but he knew that the main god must have added his name to the memory of everyone in District 12.
Moreover, in the impression of people in District 12, he doesn't seem to be that powerful.
Because all the eyes looking at him seemed to have a little sadness, as if after he left, he would never come back.
Chen Yihan remained calm, walked out of the crowd, and followed the soldiers to the podium.
When Chen Yihan stepped onto the podium, Katniss looked at him.
He is of medium build, fairly strong and strong, with black hair hanging down his forehead.
But why couldn't there be a trace of shock and fright on his face?
Could it be that he was doing his best to keep calm?
Katniss couldn't believe that the boy named Chen Yihan, who usually didn't talk to anyone very much, could look at this matter so calmly, and tried to look into his eyes, as if to find a trace of uneasiness in him before he would let it go.
But to Katniss' disappointment, the boy named Chen Yihan just turned his head and nodded towards her, revealing a slight smile.
In his black eyes, there was no trace of panic, not even the slightest bit of uneasiness.
That expression was calm and composed, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all.
Or, can he describe his expression at the moment, is he confident?
"Just now, a miracle happened in District 12." Effie Trinh held the microphone and said, "Will there be a miracle this time? Is there any boy who is willing to become a volunteer like Katniss? "
Effie Trine waited for a while, but did not get any reply.
"Okay!" Effie Trine tapped the microphone with her fingers, "Katniss, Chen Yihan, the two of them are our tributes to District 12!"
As Effie Telin's voice fell, Chen Yihan heard a "ding" notification sound from his Lord God Medal... (To be continued.)
The big clock in the square rang twice.
"Let's do as usual, ladies first!" The old goblin named Effie Trine twisted her ass and walked to the big glass ball for lottery.
