Chapter 7 The ominous kid cursed by Satan
"He won't come to you. This child is very sensible and doesn't want to have anything to do with us." Robert said thoughtfully, "This is a child who knows what he should pursue and get, but he seems to be a little cowardly. Well, I forgot to ask his name again, old man, can you help me find him?"
Baba said, "No problem, such a child should be easy to find."
"Mr. Barley, Mr. Robert." A man next to him who had been paying attention to this side approached and said respectfully, "I know this child. His name is Di Changli. His father is an unemployed miner named Dilo. I used to live on the same street as them."
The look on the man's face suddenly became a little strange. He hesitated and added, "Mr. Robert, you may not know this child. He is actually not cowardly, and he is very strange and mysterious. I have personally experienced this."
"Worange and mysterious?" Robert was a little surprised and wondered, "Are you familiar with him?"
"Yes, I think he was in a hurry to leave because he saw it." The man slowly said, "When he was younger, the people on the street where I lived called him an ominous kid cursed by Satan."
"The ominous kid cursed by Satan?" Robert and Barley looked at each other and were even more surprised.
Barley said, "Iron hand, tell me more about it."
A man named Iron Hand stretched out his left arm, which is a well-made simulated mechanical arm. Its flexibility is not inferior to that of real limbs, but it can do much more than a real hand, and can install various light weapons in it, which is as powerful as a special gun. In fact, there are many people in the Federation who pursue powerful force who do not hesitate to mutilate themselves to install special mechanical limbs, which are known as colonists. Among them, the best are even as strong as those of those who cultivate to the energy period.
The iron hand closed its knuckles and said in a low voice, "Mr. Barley, you should know that I had a big accident ten years ago, and some of my partners died. After that, I was taken care of by you to get through that difficult time."
His eyes showed a memory, and his tone was even lower. He continued, "On the day of the accident, my friends and I set out to do business after gathering at my residence. This little guy named Di Changli was only about four or five years old at that time. He was playing alone in the street. He suddenly stopped us and told us very seriously. Let's go back and run quickly, or we will die. One of my grumpy brothers was so angry that he almost killed the child. Fortunately, I stopped him.
"The child didn't seem to be afraid, and told me that he would run all the way to the right street and then left." The corners of the iron hand's eyes twitched slightly, and he squeezed his mechanical fingers and said, "At that time, I suddenly remembered something about the child. Not long after he learned to speak, one day he kept crying that his mother was going to die. The next day, his mother was indeed killed in an accident. Later, several times, he predicted who would die, but unfortunately, it was more effective than the devil's spell. Several times, the people on the street felt very scared and talked about this ominous kid cursed by Satan and dared not approach him again.
Robert and Pali looked at each other and felt a little incredible. If they hadn't known that the iron hand had always been steady, I'm afraid he was only thinking that he was making nonsense.
"When I thought of these things, I couldn't help but feel very uneasy, so I wanted to dissuade everyone from going back or change the route to do things, but I was ridiculed and had to follow them, but because of this, I also had a lot of my mind and was always alert to the movements around me. If you don't go far, something will really happen."
At this time, the corners of the iron hand's eyes twitched more severely, twisting the metal fingers hard, and said in a low voice, "The attack happened very suddenly, and everyone was still joking. At all, there was no defense and half of it was swept down by a round of fire. I was the first person to find the enemy's trace, and fortunately escaped unharmed. This is difficult. Then, a large number of enemies surrounded us as if they were coming out of the ground. At that time, I knew that everyone was over. I immediately remembered the child's words and rushed to the right desperately. This is the weakest link in the enemy's deployment. After losing an arm, I finally rushed out of the encirclement and fled to the street outside. Then I met a team of federal patrol police in time, which fortunately left a life.
He told the life-and-death battle quite plainly, but everyone imagined the thrilling scene at that time. Barley said with emotion: "That fight was the most cruel and fierce battle in Rome in recent decades, and you were the only one who escaped from the world. Everyone thought it was your life. Big, I didn't expect there was such a story in it. Iron Hand, don't blame yourself. If you hadn't escaped in time at that time, you would have just died one more life for nothing.
Iron nodded and thanked him for his persuasion.
"What happened later?" Robert asked.
At this time, the iron hand's expression relaxed a lot, and the corners of his eyes no longer twitched. He said, "Later, I went directly to the Caribbean Galaxy with Mr. Barley and met you and stayed there for several years. After coming back, I went to see the child and found out about some things that I didn't care about before. It turned out that this child was not his current father's biological child, but an orphan adopted by a miner named Dilo on the 13th planet.
Barley frowned and said, "The thirteenth planet? It's just an industrial mineral star. How can someone take the child with him?
Iron Hand shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this. It seems that a couple of adventurers from other galaxies died there and entrusted their children to Dilo on their deathbed."
Robert interrupted: "Iron hand, since that miner Dilo has lost his job now and his wife has passed away, the child's life must be quite difficult. How can you sit idly by? This is not your usual style.
The iron hand sighed heavily and said, "I really want to help them, but the child who was only * years old at that time was very stubborn and insisted on not accepting any help from me. The only thing I helped him was that made him very angry. Finally, I forced me not to go to him again. After that, I rarely saw him again.
"What did you do for him?" Barry asked with interest.
The iron hand couldn't help nodding heavily and thinking about it carefully.
Robert was satisfied with his reaction and turned the topic and said to Barley, "Old man, have you helped me find all the goods I need?"
"Of course, you can take it at any time." Barley said, "Old man, you are new to Rome. I can lend you anything without taking unnecessary risks."
"No, no, no, old buddy, do you want to return my favor like this? Don't even think about it." Robert shook his head and smiled, "Besides, there is a first time for everything, and occasionally playing exciting games is also good for physical and mental health."
"Well, good luck, old man." Barry did not insist. After all, for them, no matter how deep the friendship is, there is a limit. He reminded him that: "The city of Rome had a new judge named Andre, who has a strong ability to handle cases and is selfless. He is also a master who has reached the late stage of energy forging and quickly broken through to the energy control period. When Andrea first comes here, he will definitely establish prestige by vigorous means. Be careful not to fall into his hands. At that time, I have no way to help you.
This is true. Rome has a population of more than 60 million, and there are hundreds of rogue leaders, large and small. Although Pali's power is at the upper-middle level and can be regarded as a figure, there is not much room for words in front of the judges at the top of the federal official pyramid of power.
"Are you about to enter the energy control period?" Robert's look changed slightly, which is not a pleasant news. According to the standard strength of the Federation, entering the early stage of forging is equivalent to being among the ranks of the highest hands. In the later stage of training, it is already a perfect super master, and entering the energy control period belongs to the top strongmen in the Federation. Only a few people in the whole Roman galaxy have this strength. Just a few people.
But Robert put down his worries and smiled, "I don't think a general judge will be interested in an incompetent role like me. On the contrary, you have to be careful not to be caught by the tail."
Barry laughed and said, "I don't have as many tails as you old fox. All right, old man, we should go and have two drinks to relax.
The iron hand kept up with them and was still thinking about Robert's words. Suddenly, he remembered another thing. Now it should be the admission time. Why did Di Changli, who had been working hard, not attend classes in his school, but walked alone on the street? Did he encounter any difficult troubles?
The child's personality seems to be peaceful, but in fact he is more stubborn than the nine-headed donkey combined. He is as stubborn as a fool. Sometimes he even feels that he knows that Di Changli will never take the initiative to ask others for help and decides to secretly understand the situation.
