Chapter 244 The Source of Tragedy
Ever since Alan activated the power of the Rumbling, his mind has entered a kind of memory bubble, immersing him in different memories, allowing him to feel the joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness he had experienced before.
The fourth memory fragment: The foster mother nun excitedly hugged Alan and Ada and said, "We are saved. They promised to give me a boat and a way for the children to survive."
There were fires everywhere in Frevans at this time, and multiple fire sources were burning at the same time. This was definitely set intentionally. Considering that there were fully armed soldiers on the streets, clearing out survivors street by street, and shooting all the residents regardless of whether they were sick or not, are the promises of these cold executioners really worth trusting?
At this time, Ada thought of her good friend first, "What should we do with Luo and Rami? Let's take them on board!"
A younger brother naturally obeys his sister's request. Alan volunteered to go to the doctor's house. Seeing the two women's worried eyes, the boy patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, no one in Frevans is more familiar with this place than me. Those bad adults can't catch me."
The little man set off under the watchful eyes of his family. On the way to the doctor's house, Alan tried to keep his footsteps as low as possible to avoid the muskets of the "foreign" soldiers.
On the way he witnessed a tragedy where a young couple protected their child and begged the people in front of them to spare the baby. The husband kowtowed and said nice things with a smile, but the soldiers never put down their rifles.
Bang, bang, bang... After a few gunshots, the young couple fell in a pool of blood. But it was not enough to do this. The soldiers in protective clothing had to finish off their vital parts, sparing neither adults nor children. After making sure that the family was completely dead, the soldiers stood up again and continued to look for the next target.
Alan, who witnessed the whole process, covered his mouth, fearing that any sound would be discovered by the soldier. Tears welled up in his eyes, witnessing a fellow human being being brutally killed was too cruel for a child who was less than ten years old.
Suppressing the fear and wild thoughts in his heart, Alan quickened his pace and rushed to the doctor's house. Trafalgar Law's family was a wealthy middle-class family in the town, with a big house that the poor envied. Law's father was a respected doctor. Perhaps he could cure Perkins disease, and then the people of Frevans would be saved!
When Alan arrived at the familiar place where he got his meal, black smoke had already started to billow out of Luo's house and flames were engulfing the place. The boy realized that something must have happened to this family. Alan could not care less and he found a first-floor window and climbed into the house.
The house was filled with choking black smoke and fire. Alan covered his mouth and nose and felt his way to the master bedroom. What he saw on the ground were the bodies of the doctor and his wife. He could hardly hide his sadness when he saw this scene. Why should good people be killed? Luo's parents were the few kind people he had ever met.
There is inevitably some sadness in the young heart. A seed of revenge sprouts at this moment. The fire in the house is getting bigger and bigger. Alan can't move the adult's body. He has to escape first and tell the nun that the group of soldiers cannot be trusted.
Before the boy could climb out of the window, he heard a coughing sound coming from a room. It was the voice of a little girl. Alan didn't think much and immediately went to the source of the sound.
Rami was sitting in the closet at this time. The thick smoke in the house forced her to open the closet door a crack. She kept her promise and was still waiting for her brother here. Not long ago, Luo heard gunshots and hid him in the closet. After that, there was no movement in the house and a fire started. The little girl did not dare to move and stayed in the closet in fear.
"Rami, is that you? I'm Alan and I'm here to save you." The girl heard a familiar voice and pushed open the closet door, then saw a boy with a dark and gray face breaking into the room.
Alan didn't give the girl too much time to explain. He rushed forward and put the girl on his back. Rami was very touched by his action, but the girl still resisted: "Brother Alan, don't touch me. My disease may be contagious, and I don't want to infect you."
The girl, who already had white spots on her face, was suffering from PerkinElmer disease. She didn't want people around her to be infected with the disease. But at this point, Alan couldn't care less. He couldn't let Luo's sister die in the fire. This time he showed his manliness and wanted to take her away from here by force. He would explain it to Luo when he met her later.
The fire in the house was getting bigger and bigger. The place where they originally came in was already covered by flames. Alan carried Rami on his back and ran to the kitchen on the first floor and left through the small window there. Not long after the two children escaped, the building behind them began to collapse. Fortunately, they got out in time.
After rescuing Rami, Alan made a decision that he could not take her to the nun. As for the Ship of Hope mentioned by her adoptive mother, he had more and more reasons to suspect that it was a trap from the beginning. The boy had seen too much evil in human nature since he was a child, and he could not let Rami escape from the tiger's den and fall into the wolf's den.
The girl was placed in a secret place and told, "Rami, wait here for us. I will go find your brother and sister. Don't trust anyone during this time."
After hearing this, Rami nodded obediently, her two little eyes looking in the direction where Alan left. She was very grateful to this savior, but for some reason the girl suddenly had a premonition that perhaps this was the last time they would see each other.
The boy returned to the nuns' team with hatred in his eyes, and learned from his adoptive mother that the wet Luo had come just now. He heard the nuns talk about the ship of hope, and the other party ran home to find his sister. He didn't expect such a coincidence. But when Allen wanted to leave, he found it was too late. The soldiers with live ammunition had surrounded them by the river.
Alan took Ada's little hand and retreated behind the crowd. There was a group of half-grown children blocking their way. The nun was talking to the leader of the soldiers: "Our children are not infected with PerkinElmer disease. They are not grown up yet. Please let them go."
The soldier leader wore a gas mask with no visible expression on his face, and a cold voice came out from inside: "For the sake of nearby countries and all mankind, you must be sacrificed. Don't show mercy and get ready to open fire."
The nun grabbed the clothes of the soldier leader, and her crying infected the children. A group of boys and girls began to cry loudly, "Please don't shoot, don't shoot... don't shoot"!
There was no pity for the women and children, but the soldiers opened fire without hesitation. As the gunshots rang out, the children fell down in rows like wheat. The nun looked at such a desperate scene, and her faith and kindness completely collapsed.
The woman was pushed to the ground by the leader of the soldiers. At the end of her life, she looked in the direction of the children, muttering "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" crazily. It was because of her kindness that she easily trusted others, and her good intentions led to bad results, which completely harmed the children. If they had not been gathered together, perhaps one of them would have had a chance of survival.
Several ruthless bullets pierced the nun's body. At that moment, the woman was about to lose her breath. She saw two familiar figures jumping into the river. God did not let her kindness be completely ruined, and reserved two seeds of revenge for Frevans.
