It's not the first time Tsuna has seen someone get hurt.She saw a lot of people shed blood, her enemies, her friends and many people she didn't know.She found it difficult to accept at the beginning, when the world in her eyes was always black and white.Bad guys can be defeated but have a chance to reform, good guys can get hurt but always have a good ending.But when she became the leader of Pengo Lie and found that some of her too simple and willful decisions had caused harm to those around her, she also began to admit that not everything in this world is good.

You love this world deeply, live in this world, and while enjoying the sunshine, you should know that night always exists.

The people around Gang Ji will always subconsciously protect her and keep her away from such pure darkness, even Li Baoen, who has always been strict with her, is like this.She's seen death, she's seen blood, but it's mostly for a purpose, for territory, money, victory, or something else.

She had never seen such a senseless injury as before.

That person didn't kill the girl completely, but just made her hurt, made her despair, and made a noisy child who was chattering and twittering unable to speak anymore.The room was very dark, and Tsuna couldn't see the girl's expression clearly, but she could see the tears flowing in the girl's wide-open eyes.She whimpered softly, and her mouth made a shrill sound because of the loss of her tongue, like a wounded little animal desperately asking for help with its last strength.

Gang Ji suppressed the heavy and bitter pain in his heart, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the girl's hair.She felt the girl dodge almost reflexively, and her nose couldn't help sore, "Eri, it's okay, we're here to pick you up. Do you remember us? Your mother is waiting for you outside, me and that good-looking brother I'm here to take you home."

The little girl's body trembled, she sniffled and cried even harder, but Skylark didn't care that the girl wiped sticky snot and tears on his clean suit.

"Cry if it hurts." Yunque patted the girl's head and whispered, "It's okay to attract people, you don't have to be afraid."

Tsuna knew that it would be extremely dangerous to expose herself in such an environment of the enemy's camp, but she felt that Skylark hadn't said anything wrong.Eri has been carefully restraining herself from the very beginning, probably because the person who hurt her is still around here, and she doesn't want to draw him over—whether it's out of fear or because she wants to protect them.

A girl less than ten years old lost contact with her family for so many days, was locked in a dark room with no light, and had her tongue pulled out, but she didn't even dare to cry.

That's pathetic.

Tsuna thought.

If that person comes, come over, if it happens to be the enemy, then fight.She really wanted to scare the snake and try to get out of the way as much as possible.But if power cannot be used to do the right thing, if it cannot help those in need, then power itself is meaningless.

Tsuna thought about it, and no longer worried about whether he would become a target.He took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and then stretched out his right hand to the girl with the palm facing upwards.A bunch of orange-red flames burst out in her palm, and the warm light illuminated the whole room.

She finally saw the girl's bloody face.It was only then that she realized that not only her tongue, but also Eri's body had countless wounds, large and small.The light just now was too dim, and Eri crawled over with her body facing down again, so even Hibari didn't see the wound on her body that almost ran through her entire abdomen.

The black-red liquid "ticked" and "ticked" along the hem of her pleated skirt and dripped onto the floor, almost staining the lower half of Skylark's shirt red.

—How can a child have so much blood to shed.

Tsuna raised his head uncertainly, looking at the black-haired man who was half-embracing the girl with the last sliver of hope.

Skylark just pursed her lips and shook her head slightly.

Gangji's heart sank instantly.

Maybe they were all wrong just now.

It wasn't because of fear or to protect them, but Eri didn't have the strength to cry any more, and it was too late for them to come.

Due to the massive loss of blood, the little girl's whole body turned sickly bluish-white. The temperature tendency of human beings made her instinctively approach the fire source.She was still holding Hibari's suit with one hand, but with the other hand she held Tsunayoshi's palm.The soft flame didn't hurt her, it was just a warm mass, like steaming milk tea in winter.

She held them, as if she was walking down the street holding their hands left and right many days ago.

"Is it getting warmer?"

The girl nodded.

"Does it still hurt?" Gangji asked again.

Eri closed her eyes tiredly, and shook her head slightly.

But this is not a good thing, it means that her pain nerves are no longer functioning.Pain is the body's alarm to the brain. In order to enable people to avoid danger and receive immediate treatment, it can be said to be the natural alarm of the human body.

Now her siren is completely useless.

Gang Ji felt that the girl was gradually losing strength in holding her hand, and she had to hold it backwards to prevent her hand from slipping down.Eri closed her eyes several times, gasped for breath several times, and finally had the strength to speak.

Tsuna saw her silent mouth--

"Mother."

"...she's waiting for you outside." Gang Ji blinked, tried hard to hold back the soreness in his eyes, and showed a gentle smile at the girl, "Go to sleep when you are tired, and see you when you wake up." It's Ms. Zhizi. She is a little angry that you are lost alone again, but don't worry, we will explain to her. We will tell her that Eri is a brave and strong girl, and she has been waiting until we come to find her. she."

Hearing what she said, Eri seemed relieved at last, with a faint smile on her face, the distance between her upper and lower eyelids getting smaller and smaller.

"Eri, are you tired already?" Tsunaki's voice was a little choked, and she held back for a long time before she let herself cry, "You said that pretty brother is hugging you, you can rest gone."

Skylark looked at Tsunayoshi, then slowly raised his hand, covered the girl's eyelids with his palm, and said in a low voice——

"Go to sleep."

The girl who Lark thought was a little noisy finally slept peacefully in his arms.

He put the breathless girl on the floor, and silently took off his suit jacket to cover her tattered body cut by a sharp knife.He looked at the dead girl for a while, and then looked up at Tsunaki who was kneeling on the ground and blinking clumsily, trying to hold back the tears but could only sob in embarrassment.

"It's none of your business."

"It would be great if I could come earlier." Tsuna choked up and said, "If I can be as good at dealing with people as Li Baoen or Prison Lord, I can come here sooner."

"That doesn't change anything."

"Who knows? Maybe I can stop him 1 minute earlier, and I can defeat him 10 minutes earlier." The more she spoke, the more uncomfortable she became, tears fell down almost uncontrollably.

A vivid and even familiar life tragically disappeared before her eyes, and she did nothing but lie to her and make her die less sad, and she didn't even know that she wanted to die. How to deal with a mother who has lost a child.

She cried miserably, but she still straightened up and walked forward quickly.She didn't have much time to be sad, the missing child was not only Eri but also others.She was already late once, and she didn't want to be late a second time.The dead Eri will not come back because of her sadness, but the people inside will die because of her cowardice.She is not an ordinary person, she has strength, and she is always stronger than others, so she should put away her tears and take up arms to fight.

She wiped her eyes fiercely with her sleeve, a cluster of hot orange flames ignited on her forehead, and her golden eyes seemed to be glowing in the darkness.

Skylark has been watching her from the side.

He was silent for a long time, and finally said, "I am also at fault."

Gang Ji's eyes widened in disbelief. If it wasn't for the death mode, she would probably have wondered if she was too sad and out of her mind.Skylark never admits mistakes, he always does things according to his own mood, and has always disregarded common sense, good or bad, or consequences.Even if he beat someone simply because he didn't sleep well or was in a bad mood, he wouldn't feel that there was anything wrong, let alone something like admitting a mistake that was close to showing weakness.

"When you went to inquire, I felt annoying and didn't help you." Yunque ignored Gang Ji's expression as if he had seen a ghost, and said to himself, "I should help you."

"No, you don't need it." Gang Ji said with some embarrassment, "You don't like places with many people, so I insisted on bringing you out."

"There is no excuse." Yunque said lightly, "I am responsible for this matter, and I will solve it."

He raised his hand, brushed the corners of Gangji's still red eyes with his fingers, and said, "So don't cry."
