Scarlet Falls

The world used to be a world where the Church of the Twelve Gods had a large number of believers.

However, the Church of the Twelve Gods was later banned, and the United World Government no longer allowed churches to worship any named god with a clear direction. It only allowed the worship of a god without a face, gender, honorific name, or any nature. god:

The faceless god.

There is only one church left in Scrap Iron City now, which is the Church of the Faceless God.

However, the scale is not large and there are not many believers. No one wants to believe in such a god who does not seem to have any majesty, especially in such a small place and such a damaged church, so there have not been many in that church. Clergy, it is said that there used to be an old priest, but later, even the priest was gone, only a few old nuns remained there.

For Sister Lucky and others, because there are not even extraordinary people in the Church of the Faceless Man, they have not paid attention to it.

What surprises Sister Lucky now is Wei Wei's experience. His previous file only stated that he was a homeless boy on the edge of Scrap Iron City, because there are many such people, always appearing one after another on the garbage mountain. Therefore, no one had any doubts, and few people even mentioned that the boy who shocked Scrap Iron City back then actually once lived in the orphanage of the Church of the Faceless Man.

Maybe those Ayaran information are not worth remembering?

Sister Lucky did not show an inappropriate expression, but gently held her chin, nodded, and said:

"I'd better go back and take a look when I get the chance. After all, I'm back."

"Everyone who returns to his hometown would like to visit his old friends, right?"

"..."

"Um."

Wei Wei agreed obediently, but felt indifferent in his heart.

Why is it necessary? These people are not infected.

What's the point of going back to see an old friend who can't be killed?

"Xiao Wei, actually I'm a little curious..."

Sister Lucky seemed to notice Wei Wei's lack of interest, smiled, and said softly: "Why are you coming back this time?"

Another person asking why he came back...

Wei Wei sighed softly.

It seems that since I made this decision, people have been asking me.

The instructor, the captain, and even the demonic forbidden object numbered 206 - the Brain of the Knower.

They all have doubts about their return and have their own guesses.

However, I clearly didn’t hide it...

I have already moved into the place where the nightmare started, so what else do I have to ask?

"Feel sorry."

Sister Lucky smiled and said: "I'm just curious. I noticed that you moved into the room in the fifteenth block..."

"I also know something about your previous affairs, but really, both me and the captain, we all want to find a chance to persuade you. After all, several years have passed and you have a new life. , so what happened in the past..."

"..."

"Sister lucky, do you also want to tell me that you have forgotten what happened before?"

Wei Wei suddenly raised his head with a smile and looked at her with a gentle face, without showing any unpleasant expression.

"It's not forgetting."

Sister Lucky sighed in a low voice, held Wei Wei's hand, and said softly: "It's time for you to have a new life of your own."

"Believe us, we've been through similar experiences."

"The past may be difficult to forget, but only by letting go can the future life be easier."

"You are still young and have received training in the training camp. You should have..."

"..."

Her words were sincere and gentle. What she said was obviously from the heart and was true.

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wei Wei.

"Sister lucky, do you know what a child's dream is?"

Wei Wei raised his head, his eyes seemed clear.

Sister Lucky was slightly stunned, unable to answer Wei Wei's question for the moment.

"Very simple."

Wei Wei looked at Sister Lucky and replied with a smile: "Really, their dream is so simple."

As he spoke, he slowly put a small bottle of wine to his mouth and took a few sips, with a smile on his lips and said:

"They have known since childhood that a nun who is gentle and kind in front of outsiders will use needles to prick children she doesn't like in private. They know that devout believers will torture their adopted children into inhuman form. They know that they spread the gospel every day. In the church welfare home, the children will only be willing to have a full meal when outsiders come to visit..."

"Even when Xiao Qiqi, who was only six years old, was stared at by the fat cook with leering eyes every day, we felt that this was normal, but we were a little scared, so we escaped with Xiao Qiqi. But we didn’t even think about hating him.”

"Who will the little kids hate who just want to survive?"

"We accepted from the beginning that this is the way the world is."

"..."

Wei Wei spoke slowly, with a smile on his face, and seemed not to be immersed in it at all.

The voice was just objective and soft: "At that time, we just wanted to grow up."

"When you grow up, you can work in the mines and earn wages."

"When you grow up, you won't be afraid of wild dogs on the roadside. You can use a stick to beat them away."

"When you grow up, you can buy Xiao Qiqi that little white dress in the kitchen window. She really likes it..."

"..."

As he spoke, his voice became lower and lower. After a long time, he slowly began to speak again: "But we who hold such simple hopes, endure so many things, and learn not to complain, still encounter difficulties." To that family that worships the devil.”

"So, they all disappeared one by one, including sweet potatoes, matches, vests, and kittens..."

"Until the end, even Xiao Qiqi was deceived by a little dress..."

"I look for them in the garbage mountains, I look for them in the church garden, I shout their names on the roadside..."

"When I finally found them in that room, I only saw Xiao Qiqi, and she put on that little white dress."

"It's just that it's stained red."

"..."

"call……"

After a long, long time, Wei Wei let out a breath and said, "Really, I have a very high tolerance for people."

"Tall since childhood."

"To the point where I can tolerate them as long as they're human."

"..."

"It's just that some people can't even meet this most basic standard..."

Wei Wei spoke slowly, a bright smile slowly appeared on his face, and said: "Sister lucky, I decided from then on."

"No more."

"Never again."

"..."

After slowly speaking, he looked up at Sister Lucky and smiled.

Many people have asked him this question, why should he come back to this small place.

He didn't even want to answer.

What's wrong with these people? They have to ask themselves such a simple question over and over again...

So, maybe because of Sister Lucky's gift, or maybe because he drank a little more wine today, he answered.

Answered very seriously.

But when Sister Lucky listened to his answer, she tried her best to remain still, but suddenly there was a deep worry in her eyes.

"so……"

She drew her voice slightly to adjust her voice so it wouldn't sound too weird.

"You gave up the great opportunity of the training camp and returned to an inconspicuous little place like our Scrap Iron City."

"Just to settle the past?"

"Even including you staying in the original room is to find new clues so that you can continue to work for your..."

"...Brothers and sisters, revenge?"

"..."

Wei Wei glanced at Sister Lucky. Isn't the logic very clear? But why is her voice trembling?

Sister Lucky picked up the wine at hand and took a slow sip.

She seemed to be hesitant, hesitating whether to end the conversation or whether to go back immediately.

After all, the captain just wanted to have more contact with Wei Wei and get to know him better. But now in this not-so-long contact, she has understood clearly that Wei Wei did not lie, and what he just said was definitely not something that could be said by lying.

However, there was an impulse in her heart that made her unable to help but continue this conversation.

"I can understand your mood..."

She kept her voice calm, and then carefully asked her doubts: "But, who are you going to take revenge on?"

Wei Wei was startled for a moment and looked up at her with some confusion.

Why would this woman ask such a simple question, looking so stupid?

"That mysterious family..."

He couldn't help but laugh: "They are the ones who harmed my younger brothers and sisters, how can I let them go?"

"But……"

The panic in Sister Lucky's voice suddenly became a little uncontrollable.

She even mustered up the courage to finally ask this most critical question: "But..."

"But that mysterious family was killed by you right then..."

"..."

Out of some self-doubt caused by Wei Wei's firmness, she couldn't help but recite that piece of information: "Scrap Iron City File No. 057: The Red Rose Family, with a total of six members, all of whom are worshipers of the devil of life. . From February to June three years ago, he abducted and coaxed many street children to perform demonic sacrificial rituals, and a few days later, they were massacred at the scene..."

"This case was investigated by senior extraordinary people from the Second City Defense Line and special investigators from the Foundation. It was finally determined that all members of the Red Rose family had died in that case, and there were no accomplices arrested or the spread of demonic ideas online. …”

"..."

She said, finally unable to hide the surprise on her face:

"You have killed all your enemies. Now that you are back, who will you seek revenge from?"

"..."

Wei Wei seemed a little surprised. He stared at Sister Lucky with wide eyes. For a long time, a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face.
