A prince from a certain American comic book

The cafeteria fell silent once again.

Ike turned around and looked around the cafeteria, his eyes scanning everyone.

next second.

Ike simply shrugged and asked, "Who is Ike Adair?"

Boos instantly erupted from all directions.

Ike walked straight out of the cafeteria without looking back.

A group of restless, energetic young people.

At this moment, Ike deeply missed the high school education he received in the East.

On the rooftop.

Ike pushed open the door and skillfully pulled out a pack of five Daqianmen cigarettes from his pocket, tossing it to Lily, who was already waiting there.

Lily looked at Ike with disdain and said, "This is the cigarettes you bought?"

Ike shrugged and said, "There's nothing I can do. I haven't been able to find a job, and I haven't been able to find a reason to ask for money."

Lily chuckled and tossed a bag from her backpack to Ike, saying, "You owe me a hundred dollars."

After taking the cigarettes, which cost only twelve dollars outside, Ike nodded and said, "Okay, I'll remember. I'll definitely pay you back later."

Then.

Ike and Lily once again camped out at their usual spot and started puffing away.

Lily asked, "You don't like Chris?"

Ike was taken aback and looked at Lily.

Lily laughed and said, "Any news about Chris will be known throughout the entire school in less than thirty seconds."

Ike shook his head and said, "Liking and loving are two different concepts."

Lily suddenly asked curiously, "You wouldn't happen to have fallen for me, would you?"

Ike was dumbfounded.

quite a while.

Ike took a drag of his cigarette and smiled at Lily, "Don't worry, I hope we can be friends. Besides, you'll meet a man in the future, and you and he will belong only to each other. You will be his only woman, and he will be your only man."

Lily blinked.

Ike, however, snapped out of his daze and chuckled.

Matthew.

You owe me a huge favor.

Chapter 054: Freddy's Born (Seeking Recommendations)

It was in the afternoon.

On the school bus home after school, Ike met Chris again.

The students, who were already familiar with each other on the bus, cheered and applauded once again. Even the bus driver, who looked like a cowboy from the West, gave Ike what he thought was a very friendly smile after he got on the bus.

Ike sat silently in his seat.

Chris, on the other hand, sat down next to Ike without any apparent concern about what happened in the cafeteria at noon.

Ike stared silently at the scenery passing by outside the window.

Chris suggested, "Shall we go to the hospital to see Nancy?"

Ike wanted to refuse, but thinking of the somewhat mysterious Nurse Mi, he nodded and hummed in agreement.

A smile appeared on Chris's face.

quite a while.

Chris and Ike, who were two stops away from Elm Street, hailed a taxi and headed straight for the hospital.

Not long after.

"Give."

"Thank you."

After Ike and Chris got out of the car, Ike asked Chris curiously, "Do you always carry hundred-dollar bills with you?"

Chris said, "This is what I earned by renting out tents at campsites in the Gobi Desert during my summer and winter vacations."

Ike frowned: "The Gobi Desert?"

Chris nodded and said, "Yes, it's in Southern California. A lot of people go there for road trips every year."

Ike looked up at Chris.

Chris had a big smile on her face.

Ike sighed and waved weakly at Chris, saying, "Let's go see Nancy."

Chris smiled and didn't press the matter further.

As a beautiful girl with both a pretty face and a great figure, Chris knows the meaning of moderation.

Fifth floor of the hospital.

The moment the elevator doors opened, Ike suddenly frowned.

next second.

Ike immediately covered Chris's eyes as she was about to look outside.

Ike's actions startled Chris.

If it weren't for Ike covering her eyes, Chris would probably have already screamed.

Chris asked, "What's wrong?"

Without saying a word, Ike pressed the elevator door opener.

The elevator doors closed again.

Ike then released his hands from covering Chris's eyes.

Chris, who had regained her sight, looked at the elevator, which was now descending, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ike didn't say anything.

Ding Dong!

After the elevator doors opened, Ike went straight to the door of the security room on the first floor. After knocking on the door, Ike asked the two security guards who were chatting and joking inside, "Didn't you two go check the fifth floor?"

The two security guards looked directly at Ike and asked, "Who are you?"

Ike said calmly, "You'd better go and take a look on the fifth floor yourselves."

After saying that.

Ike grabbed Chris's arm and left the hospital.

Standing outside the hospital in the afternoon sunlight.

Ike looked up at the sky, closed his eyes, and exhaled a heavy breath.

Chris, standing behind him, watched Ike's retreating figure without saying a word.

Just then.

"what!"

"what!"

The two screams from Gao Yinbi came directly down through the window on the fifth floor of the hospital.

Twenty minutes later, the police arrived at the scene, and half an hour later, the residents of Yushu Street, who had received the news from the hospital, also rushed over.

"Ike".

"Claire."

"Chris."

"dad."

Claire looked at the Ciffer family, then pulled Aycla aside and asked, "Chris saw it too?"

Ike shook his head and said, "I was the only one who saw it."

Claire looked at Ike with a worried expression.

Ike knew what Claire was thinking, so he simply shrugged and said, "I already said, I've seen far more terrifying things than this."

Claire looked at Ike, who had a helpless smile on his face, and didn't ask any further questions.

Not long after.

The police removed the three bodies from the fifth floor.

This time, Nancy is really dead.

Connecting to Nancy's mother was an innocent nurse on duty on the fifth floor.

Claire covered her mouth as she watched the three corpses being dragged away.

Ike's eyes were gleaming.

Freddy really went too far this time. Before, when Ike let go, he could still convince himself with the idea that no snowflake was innocent during an avalanche.

But right now?

Where is the nurse on duty?

Was she guilty too?

As a great king who inherited a great nation, he could be cruel, bloodthirsty, and ruthless, but that was only in relation to his ministers or the outside world. If a minister was killed, so be it; the one thing the country had in abundance was officials.

However, for a great king to secure his throne, compassion for the common people is essential.
