008 An Unexpected Day

At breakfast the next day, Trish, who had not healed her foot injury, sat at the dining table and specifically asked about Jessica's apology last night.

"We've already talked about it. It's nothing. Jessie just cares about you too much. I'm proud to have two sisters who love each other like you." Taking the waffle from Rachel, Ross said so.

His warm and friendly tone made Jessica next to her goosebumps all over the floor. She threw the spoon into the plate in displeasure, making a series of abrupt and ear-piercing rubbing sounds.

Although Jessica looked disgusted, both Rachel and Trish felt very happy, especially the latter, because these nasty comments made Trish feel the warmth and harmony of the family from the bottom of her heart. It is very important for the father's female college students.

"I will try to come back early in the evening, and we will go to the newly opened Turkish restaurant for dinner, and I will bring you some small gifts by the way. The company's business is good recently." Rachel was in such a good mood, and she took the milk He drank the porridge in one gulp, then picked up the handbag and hugged and said goodbye to the children one by one.

As usual before going to work, Rachel gave Ross a routine good morning wen, but what surprised him was that Rachael used to touch her cheeks immediately, but this time the wen ended warmly. On his lips, it was as sweet and sweet as a melted milkshake.

"Huh?" Ross was surprised, and before he could figure out what was going on, Tracy also stood in front of him leaning on a cane.

"Go to class obediently, Ross, don't cause trouble outside. I will cook lunch for you at home today, and I must be back at noon.

Trish smiled brightly, and also gave him a farewell wen. Jessica, who was behind her, frowned and shook her head with such tenderness. Impatiently, she threw her denim backpack behind her and pushed the door open first to leave.

When the two were walking one after the other on the road leading to Queens High School, it was past seven o'clock. Since Ross's home was not far from the school, they did not take the school bus, but walked towards the campus. From time to time along the way, I could see familiar students greeting each other, and they definitely saw Ross, but due to Ross's reputation before being quite scary, and Jessica had a gloomy and indifferent expression, so she waited until the campus gate was in sight. , and no one dared to come over and say hello to them.

However, accidents happened one after another this morning. When the two were about to enter the school gate, a stranger stopped Ross on the side of the road.

"Boy, come and talk, we have something to ask you." The voice was a sturdy man in a black suit, about thirty years old, with a stern face and sunglasses. When he saw Ross turning his head in his direction as expected, he fixed his eyes on the high school student with a flat expression, and slowly approached him with his feet, making an oppressive gesture, and at the same time raised his palm and patted him lightly. One side of the jacket pocket, indicating that there is a dangerous thing hidden in it, so don't act rashly if you don't want an accident.

Before Ross could answer, two men in the same attire got out of a parked car on the other side of the road. They whistled frivolously and walked to the rear of Ross from left to right, blocking the direction in which he might escape.

This is from Frank D'Amico's gang.

Ross was not surprised by this. He had known through monitoring that this encounter would happen today, but he could not determine the specific time.

But it doesn't matter, these are just ordinary people who look mighty, as long as they find a quiet place [car] and give him a few minutes, these poor guys can kneel on the ground and beg for forgiveness.

Just when Ross wanted to take advantage of the opportunity and suggest that a few people go to a nearby alley to have a good "chat", an accident happened again.

Jessica, who was getting farther and farther away from him, glanced back inadvertently, and found that Ross was surrounded by three adults. Without thinking, she dropped her backpack and rushed towards this direction at high speed under the surprised gazes of nearby students. come over.

Her actions aroused the surprise of many people, and the police who happened to be patrolling past the campus gate also looked over from a distance.

"Well, you are lucky, but don't try to escape today, we will come to find you again, next time you'd better follow us honestly." The gangster gunman threatened in a low voice

Opening his hands, he walked out of everyone's sight as if nothing had happened.

Watching these people disappear from the street, Ross couldn't help feeling a little helpless. Although he had deliberately distanced himself after finding the signs, he didn't expect that Jessica, who always hated him deeply, would run to help him without thinking at a critical moment.

"I didn't expect that...", Ross thought to himself, and his impression of Jessica became slightly better.

Regrettably, this faint goodwill only lasted in his mind for a short minute, and then disappeared without a trace.

Jessica almost grabbed him and dragged him to a remote corner deep in the campus.

With a "bang", Ross's back hit the wall of the teaching building heavily, his bones ached, and his hair was stained by wisps of dust falling from his ding.

Jessica stood in front of him with a livid face, staring at him fiercely with the eyes of looking at some kind of disgusting creature.

"You idiot, scum, anthropoid! Tracy also said that you are sensible, I think you are a liar! How dare you provoke gangsters, do you think they are children in school and can be manipulated by you?"

She grabbed Ross's collar fiercely, and yelled at him regardless of her posture. She threw countless obscene and vicious words into Ross's face without any hesitation, but he couldn't explain it yet.

"Listen, I know what I'm doing. I'll get it all sorted out before lunch today." Ross defended helplessly, trying to wrestle away from Jessica's powerful fingers.

But her strength has completely exceeded the limit of human beings, even Ross can hardly achieve her wish.

"It's up to you?" Jessica snorted, she didn't trust Ross' Ability at all. In fact, this violent girl has been completely pissed off. Offending the gang will bring danger to the safety of the whole family. She may not care much about Ross's life, but she really doesn't want the kind-hearted Trish to be hurt, even Rachel who often quarrels.

Unable to think of a countermeasure for a while, the evil spirit in Jessica's chest had nowhere to vent, so she clenched her fists and a thunderstorm was brewing between her brows and eyes.

She couldn't wait to beat Ross up.

Ross also discovered Jessica's plan at the same time, his last hope was finally shattered, he could only sigh, his eyes deeply met the other's pupils.

"Squat down!" Jessica didn't realize what was about to happen, she yelled, her eyes flashed fiercely, and her fist hit the wall next to Ross's ear hard, causing the hard surface of the wall to explode. Open a spider web of fine cracks.

According to the memory of the former Ross, what followed was a storm of fisting and kicking... As a boy who dominates the school, that kind of memory is really miserable

But the current Ross will naturally not let her do so.

...asking for flowers...

"Jessica?" Ross whispered her name, uttering a secret order from last night. As the secret words were uttered, Jessica's mind was shocked, and the nerves in her brain seemed to be sealed by some invisible force, and gradually became blank, and could no longer function effectively.

"You...", she only had time to spit out a word, and the originally clear consciousness was swallowed by the rapidly expanding Chaos.

As the price of manipulating the strong, the strength in Ross's body quickly faded, but this is not the first time he has been controlled, and his performance is much better than last night.

Breathing slightly short of breath, and a layer of sweat leaked from his forehead, Ross leaned his back against the wall and took a few deep breaths in a row, and then slowly recovered Xiben.

"You are in a very quiet place now, you feel very relaxed, and your mood is very peaceful..."

"Listen to my voice carefully, you had a dream just now, and nothing happened in the dream..."

"When the music sounds in class, you will wake up automatically, and then forget everything before, and live normally as usual..."

"Finally, remember to ask Ross for leave... Ross is sick, he needs to rest today..."

Ross spoke slowly and clearly, and his voice was reflected word by word in Jessica's spiritual world, like a beautiful note slowly falling from the sky, which she firmly remembered in her heart without any resistance.

The Hypnotic Ability ended, and she retreated step by step. When Ross disappeared into the woods, the melodious class music bell rang. Jessica seemed to have just woken up from a dream. She tried her best to stretch her slender body, lazily I yawned lazily, and then found myself standing in a remote corner of the campus strangely.

"Why am I here?" Jessica thought with a puzzled face on her silly momo face.

But she feels good. Since the tragic car accident, she has been immersed in the grief and self-blame of losing her loved ones, and she has never been as relaxed as she is today.

"That's not bad." She said to herself. After all, Jessica is different from other people of the same age. A sweet dream is too extravagant for her. The young girl has been under pressure for too long and urgently needs a moment of rest.

Jessica has already forgotten the unhappiness that happened not long ago, those malicious men in black, Ross who wanted to teach a lesson... Like all the unhappiness, all of them disappeared from her mind, and there was only one thing Remembered by her in my heart.

"By the way, I have to ask for leave for Ross today, what a troublesome guy!" She murmured dissatisfiedly, and got up and walked to the classroom where the tenth grade is - class is about to start

Jessica turned and left, she didn't notice at all, a pair of sharp eyes quietly observed herself in the depths of the woods.

Ross wasn't sure the manipulation was successful until she entered the classroom.

"The use of skills is more proficient than last night, but the effect is not as obvious as when controlling ordinary people... Her brain waves seem to be instinctively resisting foreign invasions, so my control is actually improving over time. It is constantly weakened by the passage of time, so this time there is still a considerable consumption." He thought secretly, and roughly came to the corresponding conclusion, and estimated

Except the current limit control time of Jessica is about twelve hours.

"Don't worry. Although there are many things, we must solve them one by one. Let's deal with Frank Damico's subordinates today, and then we will have a good game."

Ross smiled slightly, turned and disappeared into the depths of the woods. .
