Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 110 Maria's Awakening: The Man in the Mirror

As they laughed, the sound seemed to become more and more obvious.

"Go ahead, don't be afraid, break their legs!"

Finally, a clear voice sounded in her ears.

boom!
A certain dam that had been building up rationality suddenly collapsed, and Maria actually reached out and slapped him.

Snapped!
A loud slap.

Before the four of them could react, Maria grabbed the girl in front of her and bent her fingers.

Click.

"Ahhhhh!!"

Screams echoed throughout the alley.

Maria stared at the other people, her fingers bent, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and even her eyes were completely different.

But the next moment, Maria's eyes returned to the previous fearful look, "Ah!"

Maria screamed and let go.

Her frightened look seemed to be telling others that she was the one being bullied.

But who was injured?
At this moment, except for the girl who was clutching her fingers and wailing, the other three girls were all silent.

The atmosphere was somewhat solidified.

"Bichi!"

Finally, a curse broke the silence.

"How dare you hit Keli."

A sudden kick knocked Maria over. Seeing that she no longer had the ferocity she just had, the three men became bolder and started to beat her up.

"So, is this what American backwoods literature is like? They take people hostage and beat them up."

"American bullying shouldn't be like: Guess who wasn't invited to the party today?"

"You guys are such a loser."

The sudden sound made all four people stop what they were doing and look up.

Louis and Emma crossed their arms, tilted their heads slightly and looked at the few people with disdain.

The movements are surprisingly consistent.

Revealing an inexplicable sense of contempt.

"Emma! This is not a school, you..."

Before she could finish her words, the black muzzle of the gun was already pointed directly at her forehead.

Emma looked at the person in front of her indifferently, squatted down slightly, pinched the other person's face and shook it, "I warned you, but you don't seem to be very obedient?"

"What's the use of this head then?"

Emma said this, took out a silencer from her pocket and began to put it on the muzzle of the gun.

Louis watched happily from the side and had no intention of helping Maria. He came to help because they had met once in elementary school. He was too lazy to spend time comforting her.

It’s better to watch a play.

Let me say it again, I, Louis, love watching women fight the most!
Seeing Emma start to install the silencer, the four of them were all terrified. It's true that guns are not banned in the United States, but they are not allowed in school! How did she bring it in?
Finally, in the horrified eyes of the four people, Emma aimed at the leader's forehead.

Her legs were shaking, and her whole body was trembling. She squeezed out a sound from her throat, "Help..."

Even Maria, who had already stood up from the ground, was looking at this scene in shock, but for some reason, she always had a feeling in her heart that was about to make a move, as if urging her to step forward, grab the gun, and kill the four of them herself!
boom!
Everyone closed their eyes at this moment.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Shrill screams surrounded us.

tick... tick...

There was no sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, but instead there seemed to be a sound of dripping water.

When I opened my eyes, the leading girl was fine.

Emma blew on the muzzle of the gun and imitated a few gunshots with a smile on her face, "Bang, bang, bang!"

The leading girl's legs trembled twice again, and she fell to the ground, soaked in her own urine, crying uncontrollably.

"Haha, coward."

Emma put the gun back on.

Louis came over and nudged her, "Hey, I remember when you were a kid you also..."

!!!

Emma's eyebrows twitched suddenly, and the dark history of being scared to peeing her pants by Louis in the past instantly flooded her mind. Emma was so angry that she wanted to step on him, but she faltered as soon as she raised her foot. There was nothing she could do to him!

In the end, I had no choice but to turn around and leave.

Louis laughed.

He glanced at Maria who was still in a daze and asked, "Why, do you want to be beaten again by staying there?"

The words awakened Maria, who was immersed in a strange pleasure. She quickly walked past the four girls and approached Louis.

"Well, long time no see, thank you."

"Haha, what, you finally dare to recognize me?"

Maria blushed, "I'm sorry, Madison is a little scared of you guys."

"Oh? You're not afraid?"

"I'm not afraid."

Looking at Louis, Maria finally couldn't suppress the impulse in her heart and asked, "Can I follow you?"

"casual."

Louis looked at this "friend of Madison", answered like this, and then left.

Maria was still thinking about what "whatever" meant, whether it meant agreement or disagreement, but her legs and feet had already followed involuntarily.

In the alley, three frightened girls trembling all over helped the crying girl up and left the alley in embarrassment. Next, they will most likely choose to transfer schools, or even call the police or sue their parents?

What kind of background does a student have who can bring a gun to a prestigious private school like Lakeland High School?

They are not stupid and know what to do.

……

night.

Maria, who ran and jumped back home, was surprisingly lively. She even raised her head slightly, and her beautiful hair no longer covered her face, exuding a rare youthful aura.

This scene surprised the mother who was preparing dinner. "Oh, Maria, it seems you are in a good mood today. Can you tell me why?"

Maria smiled, "I met two new, um, friends today."

When talking about her friends, Maria instinctively paused slightly.

But the mother did not notice this. She just looked at her daughter in surprise, seeming a little unbelievable, but then joy came.

"Oh, my dear Maria, it seems you are doing well in school and things are finally changing."

"Change? There seems to be some, but not enough." A male voice sounded from the side.

A serious-looking middle-aged man sitting on a stool holding a newspaper said this, his eyes looking at Maria calmly.

Suddenly, his eyes fixed.

"Maria, I told you to look your best. Look at your hair. It's such a mess. Now, go back upstairs and fix it."

His voice was calm but powerful, filled with an irresistible determination.

Maria's mood immediately dropped. She looked at her mother for help, but her mother was silent and didn't say a word.

Maria pursed her lips and said, "I know."

Go upstairs.

Soon, night.

The family was sitting at the dining table, and the mother mentioned something. "Maria, I remember your school will hold a skating competition next month, and there will be a figure skating event, right?" "Figure skating, I remember your father once did plastic surgery for a professional figure skater. Maybe..."

Maria interrupted with a lack of interest, "NO."

"Maria, you have no idea what I'm going to say next."

"Don't say it's best."

"..."

The mother smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, since you don't want to listen, then..."

"No, she will listen." said the father as he wiped his mouth slowly.

"You know Mom is thinking about you, right?"

"Right?!"

My father's tone became slightly more serious.

Maria was feeling depressed and opened her mouth, "Yes."

At her father's suggestion, her mother began to plan Maria's next skating competition.

After dinner, Maria started upstairs.

The conversation downstairs about her had already started before she even left.

"I think she needs time to come out of her shell," the mother said sadly.

"No, this is her character. She is withdrawn, gloomy, self-deprecating, and timid."

"She doesn't even have any friends," my father said.

"No, she does. She has Madison and her new friend Lily. When she came back tonight, she said she made two new friends."

"Hehe, as far as I know, she hasn't even spoken to any boys. New friend?"

My father was dismissive.

After a brief silence.

"What should we do then?" The mother seemed to agree with the father's opinion. Well, she really didn't believe that her daughter could really make so many new friends.

"It doesn't matter. She has low self-esteem simply because she's not perfect yet. When she grows up and her facial bones are suitable, I'll make a move."

"Give her plastic surgery and carve out an angelic face."

My father's fingers moved slightly, as if he was immersed in the pleasure of wielding a scalpel and making an art film.

And the mother...actually agreed!

Upstairs, Maria, who had been listening from beginning to end, or rather, her parents had never avoided her, had tears in her eyes.

She was wrong.

Compared to Madison, she is actually more miserable.

Maria staggered back into the house, looked in the mirror, and touched her face. Am I really that ugly? Is this all because of my ugliness? Can I become popular just by having plastic surgery?
In a trance, she caught a glimpse of a photo in the gap between the mirrors. She pulled it out and saw that it was a B-ultrasound photo of twins.

"Twins? Maternity is the mother's name..."

"So, I have an older sister? A younger sister?"

Maria was surprised. She hadn't thought she actually had a sister. If, if she really had a sister, and they had grown up together... wouldn't everything be different now? Would she be in this situation now? At the very least, when she was sad and in pain, she could have a warm embrace to cry in?
If only she really existed...

At this moment, my head felt a sharp pain, and the faint voice of bullying after school seemed to come again.

Shaking her head and trying hard to stay awake, Maria walked into the bathroom. Perhaps she needed to vent a little before she could recover her mood.

Soaking in the bathtub, Maria was in a daze, recalling everything that happened today.

All the bad luck seems to have come to an end today.

When the memory in her mind stayed at the moment when Emma raised the gun and Louis ignored it, it was as if frozen into a famous painting, making her obsessed, crazy and happy.

Emma's recklessness and Louis's arrogance.

Maria's breathing quickened and her cheeks flushed.
When it's all over.

Maria felt a little exhausted, her eyes were blank, and a pleasant feeling of relief made the corners of her mouth unconsciously rise slightly.

Life will always find a way out on its own. When the pressure is too great, some instincts will awaken.

Of course, this is not the only awakening.

In the mirror next to the bathroom, a figure was looking at her indifferently, with a beautiful smile on the corner of his mouth, as if suppressing something.

After Maria got up and put on her bathrobe, she glanced at the mirror and was startled. She seemed to see a figure?
Trembling all over, he wiped the mist off the mirror.

A person who looked very similar to her, but with a raised mouth and an unruly look, stood in the mirror.

"Maria, what are you afraid of?"

The familiar voice was the voice that appeared in her mind!
Maria instinctively wanted to look for her parents, but the person in the mirror suddenly said, "Don't you want to be like Emma and Louis?"

"Do you really want to have plastic surgery?"

"You still want to be a supporting role? Be ignored! Be teased!"

"Don't you want to turn your fantasy into reality?"

Every word struck her heart, and every word spoke of her desire and her repression.

Maria's breathing quickened. Finally, she paused and looked at the figure that looked very similar to herself. "Who are you?"

"Me? I'm your sister~"

"You can call me Alan."

"I can help you."

Sister? Soul? Alan?

A string of nouns flashed through Maria's mind.

"Why are you helping me? Can you really help me?"

"Of course, I'm your sister, so I'll naturally help you. As for whether I can help you?"

Alan suddenly burst into laughter, and the bathroom light suddenly started to have poor contact, flickering.

"Do you remember the slap I gave you this afternoon? Did it feel good?"

"Come on, I will help you fulfill all your desires~"

"Family ~ School ~ Boyfriend ~"

"We will be the people of your dreams."

Maria moved forward step by step. For some reason, she felt that everything Alan said made sense. Alan was right. She wanted to change. She wanted to feel so...good this afternoon!

Their foreheads touched the cold mirror, and the two people overlapped at this moment. Maria, who was originally filled with inferiority, turned her eyes slightly, and a sense of darkness arose spontaneously.

boom!
The mirror is broken.

Maria fainted in the bathtub.

From beginning to end, she actually never left the bathtub.

Everything seemed to be just her fantasy, but the broken mirror could not be faked.

When her mother heard the noise and rushed over to wake her up, Maria was very calm. She just said that she accidentally fell asleep and she didn't know why the mirror was broken.

She returned to the room.

Lying in bed.

She started a conversation with Alan. Of course, Alan was the one talking most of the time, and she occasionally interrupted. Even so, she felt like she had made a new friend.

Moreover, for some reason, when facing Alan, she felt like she was facing another self, full of trust.

Maybe she really is his sister.

What she didn't know was that at this moment.

Her repressed brain tissue and thinking have begun to undergo subtle changes, as if her personality has split.

In any case, she felt that tomorrow would be a good day.
