Chapter 274
It was the bedroom again. The soft moonlight came in from the window and fell on Matilda’s delicate and fair face like a porcelain doll.
The little girl curled up, as if she wanted to hug Li Xu tightly, but Li Xu wasn’t there, so she could only hug the quilt subconsciously, curling up into a small ball, leaving only a pair of white and slender legs exposed.
Seeing this scene, Li Xu shook his head and laughed, leaned over to help Matilda cover the quilt, and then lay sideways beside her.
It seems to smell a familiar breath.
The little girl moved her body and hugged Li Xu tightly again, her legs skillfully resting on Li Xu’s body, like a sloth bear.
“I’m such a scumbag!”
Li Xu sighed remorsefully!
Matilda relied on him so much, but he was heartless and never thought of coming back. It really shouldn’t be!
Turning around and hugging the sleeping Matilda in his arms, Li Xu made up his mind to make up for the little girl during this time.
…
In the early morning of the next day, a few birds stood on the treetops and cleaned their feathers.
But the next moment.
The little birds were startled away by a little girl’s scream.
In the bedroom, with bare feet, Matilda threw herself on Li Xu excitedly: “Lucis, you really asked me for a month’s leave, you didn’t lie to me, did you?”
“Of course I didn’t lie to you!”
Li Xu smiled and rubbed the little girl’s soft black hair.
“Lucis, I love you to death!”
Matilda screamed in surprise again, jumping up and down happily.
Li Xu laughed and shook his head.
Today is different from the past. After so many experiences in the world, he already possesses strength above that of a god. When the time comes to help Matilda strengthen her body, those homework will be a piece of cake.
“All right!”
Seeing Matilda rolling around under the quilt, Li Xu pulled her up: “Go wash up first, and then we’ll go out for breakfast.”
“Uh-huh!”
Matilda nodded excitedly, stood on tiptoe, kissed Li Xu quickly, and then ran into the bathroom with bare feet giggling.
…
New York, Central Park Zoo.
Matilda took Li Xu’s hand and walked out, a little unfinished: “Lucis, those penguins just now are so cute, I really want to raise one.”
“Okay, you can raise it if you want.”
“Why are you so nice all of a sudden?”
Matilda stopped, frowned and looked around, as if she wanted to find something different from Li Xu.
“That’s what you said…” Li Xu pinched the little girl’s smooth face: “Did I treat you badly before?”
“no!”
Matilda explained anxiously: “It was very good before, but today it is very good, just like…”
Having said that, Matilda lowered her head in frustration, “It’s just like the day Mom left.”
“Don’t worry, Matilda is so cute and beautiful, I can’t bear to let her go.”
Li Xu smiled and hugged the little girl tightly.
“Then how about I marry you when I grow up?” Matilda’s black and white eyes rolled slyly.
Li Xu was startled, but seeing the little girl’s expectant eyes, he smiled and replied, “Okay.”
Just finished!
Li Xu frowned, glanced around… his gaze rested on a group of seemingly ordinary tourists.
From the point of view of ordinary people, this group of people is well hidden, but to Li Xu, these killers are full of flaws.
“Almost forgot, there are still troubles to deal with.”
Li Xu raised his eyebrows.
Before he left the world of killers, he had just killed the adjudicator sent by the High Table of the Continental Hotel, so he had a falling out with the High Table.
Unexpectedly, this group of guys moved very fast. According to the time of the killer world, it should have only been a day before they came to the door.
“Unfortunately, times have changed!”
Li Xu blindfolded Matilda’s eyes.
Because Li Xu didn’t hide his gaze before, the group of killers noticed something and quickly took out their guns from their arms.
It seems to be aware of Li Xu’s ferocious record.
The killers shot decisively without any hesitation or nonsense.
Bang bang bang!
The piercing gunshots resounded throughout the street. The innocent pedestrians paused for a moment, then screamed, crouched skillfully with their heads in their hands, and looked for a nearby cover.
This… is very free!
It’s not the first time Li Xu has seen this kind of scene, but every time he sees these people’s skillful dodging of guns, he feels inexplicably wanting to laugh.
“Damn it!”
“How is this going?”
I fired empty bullets but couldn’t hit Li Xu.The group of killers panicked and wanted to retreat tactically.
But Li Xu didn’t give them this chance.
Section 197
In an instant!
These killers looked in a trance, glanced at their companions, replaced the empty magazines, and then shot at each other.
Bang bang bang!
Lost in consciousness, the killers frantically pulled the trigger on their companions, and the corpses fell on both sides of the road.
And Li Xu picked up Matilda, blindfolded her, and walked in the middle of the road.
Every time you take a step, several corpses will fall down.
Weird and terrifying!
…
It wasn’t until he drove away from the Central Park Zoo that Li Xu let go of Matilda’s eyes, and said softly, “Matilda, don’t worry, nothing will happen.”
“Ok!”
Matilda nodded vigorously, holding Li Xu’s hand, her big eyes were full of attachment.
After thinking for a while, Li Xu said, “Matilda, I need to deal with this matter, you…”
Before Li Xu finished speaking, Matilda hugged Li Xu’s hand even tighter, and blurted out: “I’ll go with you.”
“No, it’s too bloody!”
Li Xu frowned.
“I’m not afraid, I want to follow you!”
Matilda put her face on Li Xu’s arm and hugged her tightly.
“Fine.”
Li Xu nodded helplessly, turned the steering wheel, and the sports car went straight to the Continental Hotel.
…
As soon as he arrived at the Continental Hotel, Li Xu found that the normally lively hotel had been emptied out, and a group of black suits wearing sunglasses and armed with guns were guarding various positions.
“Mr. Lucis, please follow me. Mr. Winston is waiting for you.”
Charon at the front desk of the hotel glanced at Matilda who was holding Li Xu’s hand, bent down and stretched out her hand, and walked in front to lead the way.
Taking the elevator all the way down to the third floor, Charon opened a metal door similar to a bank vault, and led Li Xu and Matilda inside.
Inside the metal gate, all kinds of firearms are hung on the walls. It looks like a gun warehouse, and Winston is hiding in it.
After seeing Li Xu, the old man breathed a sigh of relief: “Lucis, you’re here.”
After finishing speaking, she glanced at the well-behaved and lovely Matilda, with a strange expression on her face.
“What expression do you have?” Li Xu frowned, and slapped a silver-white revolver on the table.
“It’s nothing, it’s just a bit of a surprise.”
Winston shrugged, and looked at John Wick who was silently adjusting the gun on the other side: “Maybe, before the people from the high table come, we can discuss tactics first?”
