[hp] When the devil meets a hooligan

Turn your head and move on.

Tom is confused.He was really not sure what this powerful guy was interested in, and why he suddenly lost interest.Gritting his teeth, he continued, "Can you really lift three sacks of potatoes with one hand? Mrs. Cole rarely praises others, but once she praises someone, it means that that person is indeed very powerful."

Kyle's footsteps suddenly became brisk, "Of course, let alone potatoes, I can carry even three Mrs. Cole. That's too simple, exercise your body, Tom, I bet you can do it too " Kyle could see the strange energy looming on Tom's body, although it was not as stable as the power of thought, it did exist.

Tom put on a respectful face, but he was sneering in his heart-he didn't want to be a simple-minded guy with strong limbs.Of course, he is still not sure what kind of person Kyle is. "Can I do it too?" He exaggeratedly asked, "Can I be as strong as you?"

"How is it possible." Kyle patted the back of Tom's head cheerfully, knocking him back.No matter how you look at it, this dry little guy can't be a reinforcement system. Obviously, he can't train his own strength until he dies.Ignoring Tom's distorted expression, Kyle drove him back to the boys' dormitory, "It's time to go to bed, little guy. Remember, only you and I know about the rabbit... Good night."

What a little guy!Tom wanted to step on Kyle's grinning face.He doesn't look much older than himself, okay?Tom swore silently in his heart that one day, he would make this guy pay the price.

Billy didn't know where his rabbit went until the end.The unlucky child walked around the orphanage again and again, and finally gave up looking for it muttering, guessing that the rabbit probably escaped from the courtyard wall, ran into the street and was hit by a car and died.People's attention quickly shifted from the rabbit to another matter, that is, the new boy Kyle officially became a kitchen helper, and Mrs. Cole even allowed him to move out of the boys' dormitory and sleep with the old cook Charlie.

At the same time, the children suddenly found that Tom, who was gloomy and terrifying all day long, seemed to be a different person. He often walked around behind Kyle's ass, and seemed to be content with it.Helpful Tom?The children who had been bullied by him naturally couldn't believe it, but Mrs. Cole praised Tom who took the initiative to work.

"Hey, you really don't have to come and help—give it to me."

Kyle easily took the bucket that Tom was carrying in both hands, as easily as if he was pinching a cup.The corners of Tom's eyes twitched as he looked at the sack of lettuce that Kyle held under his arm at the same time, and began to wonder if he could really beat this humanoid monster one day.

"How far is it from finishing?" Tom followed Kyle's hurried steps with his hands behind his back, "I still want to hear more stories from you about Meteor Street."

"That's not a story." Kyle threw the lettuce into the vegetable cellar and returned the bucket to its original position. "It's a legend, a legend! Where did I go?"

"Yes, it's a legend." Tom showed an expression of infinite yearning. In fact, he was really interested in Meteor Street. "The Phantom Troupe you told everyone about last time...they really used spiders as themselves. symbol?"

Kyle nodded, "Their leader is a man named Kurollo Ruxilu. No one knows where he came from. It is said that he looks very scary. There is a long scar on his face that runs through his left eye. to the chin. But the most terrifying thing is Feitan, no one has ever seen his true face, no, it should be said, no living person has ever seen his true face!" At the end, Kyle's voice had been suppressed to the lowest, he Strive to create an atmosphere of terror and tension, and happily discover that Little Tom is indeed bluffed by himself.

Unfortunately, Tom's stiff expression was not because of fear, but because of excitement.

"Are they really that good? I mean, everyone can single out a hundred killers or something," Tom's breath trembled with excitement. "Never met any obstacles?"

"Of course there were difficulties," Kyle desperately recalled. "I remember hearing from my elder brothers that ten old men broke several spider legs. Of course, their losses were even more severe."

"Spider legs?" Tom was confused.

"Yeah," Kyle nodded, "Isn't their logo a spider, eight spider legs... I don't know how many generations have been rotated now."

"Smart," Tom narrowed his eyes, and began to imagine how cool he would be to lead such a powerful force, "but how did that...Krollo Rushiru maintain the cohesion of the brigade? How did he Guarantee that the new spider legs will absolutely obey his command?"

"Uh," Kyle got stuck, how could he know such a thing, "probably because he is especially good at fighting?"

Tom nodded silently.Indeed, strength is always the most important thing, and now he can't beat Kyle, so he has to bow his head to please him.Tom had never been more eager to improve his strength and earn back all the shame he had lost on Kyle.

Kyle didn't know the dark heart of his servant boy, and he couldn't be more satisfied with Tom.Starting in the morning, Tom would graciously come to ask him to have breakfast together, and would give him a few candies, a little flower or something from time to time.When Kyle was busy, he volunteered to help and even called (actually threatened) the other kids to join in the work.

What touched Kyle the most was that Tom was even willing to give himself the ice cream that was limited to one serving per person.

"Oh no, it's too cold, I don't like ice cream," Tom said every time, with a smile as warm as a Virgin.

Where can I find such a good brother!Kyle sighed, and at the same time silently made up his mind to treat Tom as his own brother.Alas, if I knew this guy was so good, I should have given him two more rabbit legs on the first night.

Life in the orphanage went on like this.A few months passed quickly, and the winter snow had already fallen on the roof of the orphanage's courtyard. On the last day of 1938, Tom helped Kyle clean up the kitchen as usual, and then went back to his dormitory alone.Unexpectedly, there was actually a small piece of milky white cake on his bed.

"Happy birthday!"

"Happy birthday!"

……

It seemed that all the children had packed into this small dormitory, and together they wished Tom well with their childish voices.Tom looked around in surprise, completely surprised that his 'companions' would celebrate his birthday.

"Happy birthday, Tom!"

A familiar figure jumped in from the window, startling a little girl near the window.Besides Kyle, who else can do this, this is the third floor!Tom felt a tightness in his throat, he frowned and looked at Kyle, "What... what is this?"

"Aren't you so moved?" Kyle rubbed Tom's head with a smile, "Of course it's for your birthday! No one has ever touched this cake. I went to the pier to fight sacks in exchange for it. Sorry no Candle, how old are you? Nine years old? Eight years old?"

"Eleven," said Tom dryly, "and I don't want to have any birthdays either."

"Why not?" Kelemon said, "You're one lucky guy, at least you know when your birthday is. If I could know my birthday, hey, I'd definitely make myself famous on that day of."

"Me? Lucky?" Tom sneered. "If I'm lucky, I don't have to stand on this dirty floor in my old shirt. If I'm lucky, I don't have to sleep on that hard plank bed. If I'm lucky, I should at least know who my father is—now, tell me, I'm lucky?"

Tom's black hair was windless and automatic, and he had a weird smile on his face, making him even more terrifying in the dark room.The children suddenly felt chills all over their bodies. They looked at the boy standing in front of the cake and knew that the weird, sinister and frightening Tom from the past had returned.No, he never changed, those sunny smiles were just his disguise.

Kyle also felt something was wrong with Tom, he frowned and shook his head, "Isn't it a kind of luck to be alive?"

"Of course not," Tom stared at Kyle's face and said, "Kyle, we are different from those ordinary people. We are destined to be extraordinary. Sooner or later, I will become a great person, so that Mrs. Cole will never dare to kick me again." My calf, so the goddamn officers never dare to swing a baton at me again. And until that day, I'll probably be celebrating my birthday."

Kyle felt that Tom's words seemed reasonable, "Then...until when?"

Tom hadn't thought about it that far before, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Probably...to form our own 'Phantom Troupe'?"

Kyle's eyes widened, "What did you say?"

That's right, build your own organization, an organization that everyone fears!Tom suddenly saw his own future, why not?His eyes should not be limited to this orphanage, he is destined to make a career.

"The Phantom Troupe? It's from Kyle's stories?" Billy's eyes widened, his lower lip trembling nervously, "Wow, that's so cool, I want to join too!"

Billy never knew how to read the atmosphere.But before Tom could scold the idiot, Kyle said, "That's a good idea, haha, our own Phantom Troupe? Why not. I'm the head, you're the brain, Billy's the legs... and Who wants to participate?"

The kids are afraid of Tom, but love Kyle.See Kyle speak,
