Yu Mingshu watched inexplicably as Zhong Chong screamed and then closed his eyes tightly, hunching his shoulders and trembling as if being caught by him was a terrifying thing. Zhong Chong's legs were still soft and he sat down suddenly. On to the ground.
It's just that Yu Mingshu held the other party tightly, so he only changed from raising his head to bending down slightly.
After a while, Tsukasa's fear turned into hesitation because he didn't hear any movement and the warmth in his hands didn't disappear.
"What are you doing here?" Yu Mingshu didn't see Zhong Chong open his eyes again after a while, so he shook his hand and asked doubtfully.
After hearing Yu Mingshu's voice, Zhong Chong raised his head and opened his eyes in shock. Then he was sure that Yu Mingshu was really still awake and had not lost consciousness due to his touch.
"You...why didn't you..." Tsukasa doubted for a moment whether his uncontrollable "superpower" had lost its effect. If so, could he become an "ordinary person"?
"You mean your nightmare ability?" After Yu Mingshu saw that Zhong Chong was finally willing to open his eyes, he let go of his hand.
Tsukasa felt a little empty in his heart as he felt the cold return to his hands after the source of warmth left. Only then did he realize that he had screamed at a three-year-old child and then sat on the ground and shrank back, which made him want to cover up his embarrassment with ferocity again.
But the next moment he was stunned again.
Yu Mingshu no longer had the weird grin with bared teeth just now. His calm eyes allowed people to clearly see his face. After Zhong Chong calmed down, he took a closer look at Yu Mingshu's facial features. Yu Mingshu could be said to be the most beautiful child he had ever seen.
Because Yu Mingshu’s face is as beautiful as carved by nature, whether it’s his eyes that reflect the stars but are as calm as lake water, or his delicate nose and M-shaped pink lips with beaded lips, they are all At this age, they are all so cute that people can't take their eyes away, and it's even more surprising that such a child can be abandoned.
It's just that Yu Mingshu always has an aura about him that is difficult to express directly in words, so many people's first reaction when seeing him is not to look at his face first.
At this time, Zhong Chong could not remember to ask Yu Mingshu how he knew about his "Nightmare" ability. He just felt embarrassed that he had lost such a big face in front of a child so much younger than him. He really wanted to Hide.
Then he froze again.
Because the reaction just now was something he had not experienced for a long time, showing his "ordinary" side to others.
"You should have fainted..." Zhong Chong finally found his voice, and then told Yu Mingshu what he cared about most.
"I don't know about other people. You should not worry about what I say. I am strong." Yu Mingshu spoke slowly. He stood up straight and looked at Zhong Chong's room. Tsukasa's room was actually very large, with two bunk beds inside. Only the bed in the upper left corner had a quilt, and the other three beds were empty.
There is also a table next to the bed. There are four tables arranged two by two, and only one has paper and pen. From these, it can be seen that only Tsuka Takashi lives in this room. It is just because Tsuka Takashi only has daily necessities in his room. There are no other extracurricular books, toys, or decorations, making this room seem unusually empty.
He used his mental power to scan the information of several children with "super powers" in the dean's office, but the information above was not particularly complete. At least for characters like Tsuka Takashi, there was no explanation in the information.
According to the information, Tsuka Takashi possesses a super power called "Nightmare".
As he grows older, he comes into contact with more things and becomes more and more uncontrollable. Therefore, many people he touches will lose consciousness for a few days, and some even longer. If the other person does not have a family to take care of him, the unconscious body will will die.
Those who woke up were very weak and said that although it had only been a few days, they felt like they had been frightened for a century in their dreams. After waking up, their sense of time became worse and it took a long time to recover.
In fact, Tsukasa has never really let anyone die so far, but because the adults around him are afraid of his uncontrollable ability, they will attack Tsukasa with words like "You killed people."
Tsukasa, who was feared by his family, was quickly taken back by the director of Sawyer Orphanage. The director promised his parents that he would take him to the "Super Power Academy" to study the system until he could control the "Nightmare" Then send him home after he is able.
Tsukasa Takashi, who was hiding in a dilapidated room at home, knew these words, so he had been expecting the dean to send him to the legendary "Super Academy". He didn't care whether he could have a good relationship with his kind, what he expected was him He can learn to control his abilities, but every time he asked the dean, the dean would tell him that it was not time yet.
So when will the time come? Because of his ability, several children in Sawyer's orphanage fell into the trap. Everyone regarded him as the incarnation of the devil. Tsukasa Takashi, who had no intention of harming anyone, was suffering psychologically.
At the same time, he was also thinking about whether he would never be able to return home.
Now there is a kid who says he is strong and is not afraid of his abilities. Zhong Chong couldn't help but stare at Yu Mingshu's hand, never forgetting the warmth when Yu Mingshu held him just now.
"As long as you are stronger than me, you won't be affected?" Tsukasa instinctively showed a frowning and angry expression, but he quickly calmed down, and his voice sounded cautious.
He asked this question with expectation.
Rejecting others' approach is just because he doesn't want everyone who comes close to him to fall down. In fact, Tsukasa still hopes that he can feel the body temperature of others like he did just now.
After Yu Mingshu visited this room, it was similar to his room on the second floor. There was nothing interesting to see. After hearing Zhong Chong's question, he shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Before Zhong Chong became frustrated, Yu Mingshu said again: "But why don't you try to control yourself?"
Just like his "flying" ability, if it was always activated, wouldn't he have to be on tenterhooks every day? You must know that children who are deeply affected by acrophobia really cannot afford to be hurt.
"I can not do it……"
"It can be done."
Yu Mingshu forcefully interrupted Zhong Chong's denial of himself.
"But I don't know how to do it. The dean said he would take me to the "Super Power Academy" to learn this, but he hasn't been able to take me there yet. How can I learn..." Tsukasa became more and more irritable as he spoke and couldn't help it. Pacing back and forth, Yu Mingshu blinked and prepared to go out. "Where are you going!"
"I want to go to the toilet." Yu Mingshu answered innocently, which made Zhong Chong's unwillingness and violence that had just emerged completely collapse, like an inflated balloon that was suddenly let go and instantly became weak.
"I'll take you there." Zhong Chong pursed his lips and asked Yu Mingshu to follow.
There is a toilet on every floor. Even though Tsukasa Takashi is the only one living on the fifth floor, the toilet facilities are still very complete.
Due to the height restriction, Yu Mingshu wanted to fly up and kneel on the wash basin to wash his hands, but he was picked up by Zhong Chong, who had been hesitant to hold Yu Mingshu, but was hesitant now. Yu Mingshu just turned around and glanced at Zhong Chong, without commenting on his actions, and then said while washing his hands:
"Your superpower is something you are born with. Just like your five senses and limbs, it is innate, and it will grow naturally. But once your body has the consciousness of going to the toilet, you will be there. The solution is to go to the toilet. You can even hold back your pee, why can't you hold back your superpower..."
Yu Mingshu spoke more and more fluently. Zhong Chong listened behind him and was dumbfounded. In the end, Yu Mingshu said, "Do you still wet the bed at the age of seven?"
Tsukasa:……
The concept of bedwetting was really embarrassing for Tsukasa. Tsuka Takashi has stopped wetting the bed since he was four years old. Due to environmental problems, his personality appears to be relatively precocious. At this time, he was asked by a three-year-old child if he still wets the bed. In an instant, he thought of the reason for all his previous sufferings. Not all of them were labeled as funny and tragic. After all, he unconsciously felt that his mind became broader because of Yu Mingshu's words.
It was even so broad that for a moment, he forgave himself. Because according to Yu Mingshu, the people who lost consciousness after being touched by him were actually fainted by his urine. When you think about it, the nature of a terrible thing has completely changed.
Became less scary.
"You should install a switch on yourself." After Yu Mingshu washed his hands, he shook them gently. Seeing that the ferocity on Zhong Chong's face had disappeared and turned into a daze that was shocked by his words, he wet his hands. His hand patted Tsuka Chong, "Install it here. When not in use, keep it closed."
Yu Mingshu put his wet little hands against Zhong Chong's face, and then put the index and middle fingers of both hands on Zhong Chong's temples, "This place is close to the human brain. Your power spreads throughout your body from here, and then It affects others.”
Zhong Chong didn't realize that Yu Mingshu used the word "human being". He felt that although the water on Yu Mingshu's hand was dripping down his face, the place where Yu Mingshu's fingers were touching was suffocating warmly. hot. Tsukasa began to feel a little drowsy, as if he was lying on a boat, floating and swaying on the sea.
"Don't be distracted, imagine a switch." Yu Mingshu's voice reached Zhong Chong's eardrums. Following the words, Zhong Chong began to imagine a switch key, "Have you connected the switch to your superpower energy line? "
Zhong Chong didn't know what a line connecting energy was, but with the temperature of Yu Mingshu's fingertips on his temples and the hints of words, Zhong Chong seemed to feel that he had reached the meaning of Yu Mingshu's words.
There seemed to be a hand in his consciousness, trying to stretch forward, trying to turn off the switch that was becoming more and more important. But at the last moment, the cold water droplets on Yu Mingshu's hand fell into his collar. , that burst of coldness made him wake up instantly, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
Although the feeling was gone, he still stared at Yu Mingshu in surprise, and was shocked by what Yu Mingshu had just done.
Zhong Chong wondered if he didn't have to go to the "Super Power Academy" to learn to control his abilities. As long as Yu Mingshu was here, he could...
His facial expression was slightly distorted due to excitement. After Tsukasa took a deep breath, he suddenly used his strength to hug Yu Mingshu tightly into his arms, as if he was holding the last piece of driftwood that could save him.
He had been struggling under the swamp for too long. When someone could help him break out of the mud, Tsukasa thought that the other person might become the most important person to him.
It's just that he never thought that this person would be such a good-looking three-year-old child.
