Concave and Convex World: The Wind of Freedom

Two hours ago, in the hall of King Thunder Palace.

The young man's fingers were trembling a little, but he still lowered his head and remained silent, knowing enough not to speak again.

On the other side, a middle-aged man with slender cheeks and small eyes narrowed his eyes to a slit and said in a calm tone, "Miss Lei, you are a person who understands the general situation. You have been with His Royal Highness Lei Huang in his early years. You can be said to have inherited Lei Emperor's influence." Most of His Majesty’s talents and abilities.”

"And what you are doing now really makes Lei Mou...a little disappointed."

Hearing this, the tall woman raised her eyebrows and said, "Uncle Emperor, there is no one else here at this time. If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Then I'll tell you the truth." He snorted without leaving any trace, with a sarcastic smile on his face, "As the most favored third prince, His Royal Highness Lei Shi is extremely talented and has never disappointed everyone. , we all like him."

"But now... what is this? He is actually talking to a young child all day long, and he is still dreaming of leaving the Lei family!" The suddenly increased volume, and the accusation and anger in the words were so obvious that they were almost over. Overflowing, he pretended to be angry and softened his tone calmly, "...isn't it a waste of His Highness Lei Huang's good intentions to be so treasonous?"

When Lei Shi heard this, he sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he was only thirteen years old and did not hold real power. Everyone in front of him... had full say, but he did not. His clenched fists were trembling slightly, and the anxiety in his heart and concern for his friends made him immediately raise his head angrily...

He looked into Rey's cold eyes.

He calmed down instantly.

He made a mistake.

And that mistake... comes with a price.

"I know everything you said." Lei also adhered to the etiquette, but did not make any concessions, "My younger brother Lei Shi has also reached the age where he should make friends. I think this is his freedom, right? "

"As for what he said to the little girl, I will naturally discuss it with him. It is my duty to teach him."

"It's not yours."

Rey's tone was cold, polite and arrogant. When he said the last sentence, the man almost had a fit when he opened his mouth.

But he was nicely interrupted by Rey raising his hand.

"I will give your uncle a satisfactory answer, but before that..."

"Uncle Emperor, please come back."

Obvious eviction order.

Lei Shi knew that the emperor's uncle wanted to use this incident to make public, so as to embarrass him and prolong the attack... The extent of this matter was not light, and what would be the specific consequences... Lei Shi knew that because of this, he I must give an explanation to the royal family for my negligence.

The man in brocade clothes with a mean face glanced at Rey, smiled politely, and left.

After he left, the tall woman turned around and looked at her unruly and arrogant younger brother who had entered adolescence.

"Explain." She said calmly.

"...There's nothing to explain." Lei Shi clenched his fists, the anxiety in his heart becoming more and more obvious.

"Do you know how much trouble your actions will cause?" Rey frowned, narrowed his eyes and scolded, "Do you want to betray? Leave? Or abandon this palace that gave birth to you and raise you, and go out to be a homeless man? ?”

"Brenda, you disappoint me."

"..." Lei Shi turned his head, and he quickly thought about the countermeasures for the accident... But the final result was... he did something wrong, and he felt guilty towards her.

He already had a rough idea of ​​where things were going.

"what is her name."

"...I'll take care of it."

"You? You have already done something wrong once. You have no right to make your own choice in this matter." Rey said coldly, "The news has been released that a foreign assassin has evil intentions, pretends to be a friend, and attempts to collude with the royal family. He is now hiding in the Eliu District. Just survive."

"Her name, I'll see it on the wanted poster later."

Lei Shi's eyes suddenly widened, and the anger and entanglement in his chest was released along with the pressure - he raised his voice and said, "We can have other choices!"

"I do, but you don't."

Lei Shi's heart finally fell to the cold bottom after surviving the anger.

Rey's words seemed to deepen the thorn in his heart.

"Brenda, I think you should understand the consequences of doing something wrong..."

"Your uncle is cunning by nature and is very difficult to deal with. If we don't get rid of the root cause this time, I'm afraid he will get in the way and cause even greater trouble...and all of this is your fault. Caused. Do you understand?"

How could Lei Shi not understand?

He was born into such a family, and it is even more obvious... He has been said to be the most talented prince since he was a child. The faction has been siding with him since he was young. He has been training and learning breathlessly, and he is naturally good at it, but he also feels sincerely. exhausted.

He was just tired of it.

He occasionally learned about the poor people, the conspiracy, and the Thunder King who was always imprisoned and unable to break free from the shackles from Camille...the abandoned illegitimate son...Who said that the royal family was not the same? What about the ordinary pigs and dogs in the Eliu District?

It makes no difference.

He thought of that girl... In the beginning, he actually didn't take her too seriously, but as time went by, he got to know her better... and found that she was really a tenacious person who grew up in this gloomy world.

Just like Camille.

He liked her unwavering eyes, blue, as if surging with the vast power of the universe.

It won't break when touched, it is hard, and it is made up of countless fragments. It has eyes as beautiful as glass. Different from Camille's cautious and panicked one...her eyes were stained with more complex colors, able to reflect his favorite look.

But it's a pity.

Under Rey's gaze, he lowered his eyes, and his mind was chaotic, with messages running wildly.

It's time for him to pay the price...

In this period of being attacked from both sides.

...he shouldn't.

At least not right now. He must choose the best plan, for Thunder King... no, for himself.

Lei Shi took out his communicator and sent a message to Shen Yun.

……

A small figure shuttled back and forth among the chaotic buildings at extremely fast speeds.

Shen Yun gritted her teeth, and the grief and anger in her heart almost burst out, but she did not dare to stop for a moment. She bypassed a thick wall in front of her and jumped straight down the narrow path.

Behind her are well-trained and physically strong soldiers.

And she was alone.

If you can't fight, you have to run away.

Isn't she waiting for Thunder Lion?

Didn't you agree to take action at this time? Isn't that what was promised...

Didn't say yes.

She trusted him unilaterally.

But now, this trust has been torn apart as Shen Yun was injured again and again, and he was panting and running for his life again and again.

Her body felt weak as she ran, and the sharp arrow behind her shot through her arm. She groaned in pain, gritted her teeth and changed direction.

She can't figure it out.

There shouldn't be any doubts, and there's nothing she can take advantage of.

Why does it happen again and again...

The scorching air burned into the lungs, the bright red blood solidified on the face and arms, and the body was so painful that only the most primitive instincts remained -

Run, run as far as possible.

leave here.

Leave Thunder King, leave this place.

……

Until her consciousness gradually faded away, her eyes, which were blurred and closed into a slit, swayed slightly. She raised her eyes, as if she saw the warm sun.

I saw that kind and gentle figure who was always smiling and joking with her.

That figure who is serious and serious, will beat her, and occasionally buy her candy and ice cream.

That cute, stupid, always busy figure.

That figure with a sweet smile.

The figure who pursed her lips and was always lost in thought.

That mischievous, kind-hearted figure.

I also seem to have seen the smiling self from before.

……

Shen Yun seemed to feel that she was about to die. She felt her cold hands connected with the earth, and she felt two hot tears slowly streaking down her numb cheeks.

She felt the messy hair piercing her eyeballs, and the blood flowed down her forehead and cheeks, soaking her white clothes.

she thinks.

The sky of Thunder King is blue.

There is no sun.

Just like his heart, maybe it has never been open to her.

She opened her mouth and seemed to smile.

The words came out of my mouth while crying.

"fraud……"
