Records Of Barton's Fantastical Events - Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Chapter 21 Ryan, Run

In the afternoon, after a sumptuous lunch prepared by Alice to comfort her friend, Lola calculated how much exercise to take to reduce the calories from these foods, while waiting for Benjamin’s ‘Return’.

Benjamin was lying on the dome of the warehouse with a faint smile on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

The Barton family’s limousine stopped at the entrance of the Grande Funeral Home and came to pick up Lola back.

Under Old Hank’s frowning brow, the serious butler said to the girl who refused to leave.

“Watching the game between ‘Beavers’ and the ‘Sea Lions’ will get you extra credits for extracurricular activities. Miss, you need these credits if you don’t want to study in the first grade twice. ”

Lola didn’t know how to refute, so she got into the car dejectedly. Old Hank hunched back, lifted the closing sign in front of the door, and placed it in the middle of the road that leads to the Grande Funeral Home before returning and closing the cyan door. Uh-huh, he is indeed a very strange old man.

Barton’s limo kicked up the dust on the dirt road, turned into Highway 27, and drove towards the Northern District of Barton. The butler who was always serious, gauged the traffic conditions, gave up the idea of sending Lola back to school, and instructed the driver to drive directly to [Fenway Stadium].

…

There was no chance to be a cheerleader and perform in the field, nor was her elder brother playing in the game. Lola sat on the seats that belonged to [Raiput High School] solely for credits.

When the countdown under the scoring board above the center of the field cleared, Lola jumped and cheered on her seat under the influence of her peers around her.

“BEAVER! Raipute! BEAVER! Raipute! …” Lola waved the colored ball in her hand, temporarily forgetting her worries. Uh, this ‘temporary’ disappeared when the name “Connor” appeared in the cheers of everyone!

The Beavers team members in the field ran with joy. They rushed to their quarterback like the last time and hugged Connor in the center. Then no one knew who lifted Connor. Connor was lifted in the air.

“Connor! Connor! …” The energetic young men carried their captain and waved their fists in the air, leading the cheers in the audience!

The game commentators followed the enthusiasm of the crowd in the field, shouted excitedly in front of the microphone, “Connor! Connor Hermann! Captain of the Beavers! The star of the whole game!”

“Gosh, who knows William Hermann’s son is really a talented kid! ”

“This year’s league is destined to surprise us! It seems that the old Hermann can get rid of the scandal of ‘buying a quarterback position’ to his son!”

“That is the truth! Haha! In addition to last week’s game, this kid has already shown us his abilities! I told you last week, this kid’s future is bright!”

“Yes, Yes! You’re right! I just want to say that I am a loyal customer of ‘Hermann’ (car brand)! My old car has been with me for twenty years! ”

“Me too! I am also loyal to ‘Hermann’…”

When the commentary had turned into flattering, Lola pushed the people in the crowd away and left the stands. She was going to the players’ lounge, and she was going after Connor for her brother!

Well, Lola heard much more last night than what she told Alice. For example, she heard that the real reason why her brother Kyle gave up rugby was that Connor transferred Kyle to the least valued position! For example, Connor once provoked his brother before the game!

But she didn’t tell Alice this, because, in her opinion, Alice was applying to come to Raiput. She has almost figured out the personality of her new friend, she didn’t want Alice to think that a high school is a place of intrigue!

This time, Lola could not use the excuse that she was the family of a player. Even with the surname Barton, the stout staff still shook their heads and pushed her and a group of crazy fans out of the lounge door, leaving the room for reporters who were ready to go.

“Ah! I’m sorry!” When backing, Lola knocked off a woman’s handbag. She looked at the woman with an Inan-style turban behind her, apologized quickly, squatted down, picked up the handbag, and returned it to her.

“It’s okay.” The woman smiled, but her face didn’t look good. High cheekbones, deep sunken eye sockets, and the contours of Inans are deeper than those of ordinary people in the federation, especially women. Therefore, once they were a little tired, without makeup, they would give people a feeling of haggard, Alice was such an example.

Lola looked around in confusion. It was strange to see such a woman, who was in her fifties in this area occupied by young people. But she didn’t think much about it. She simply guarded the woman in the crowded crowd.

“Thank you.” The woman noticed that the girl next to her was helping her, and smiled gratefully at the girl: “I heard what you said to the staff just now. You are looking for Connor, you are his Fans?”

Lola shook her head dejectedly. She had heard everyone around her calling Connor’s name: “I am not, I am here to settle the accounts with him!”

“Oh…” The woman said, her eyes were a little dim, no one knew what she was thinking.

At the call of the fans and reporters outside the lounge, the Beavers players finally walked out of the lounge. Naturally, “Connor” was at the front! The people in the crowd began to push each other again, Lola was caught in it, and soon, she was not buried in the cheers and the crowd. She didn’t forget the woman next to her, but when she looked back, she found that she had disappeared, and God knows where she was pushed to by the crowd!

Connor, oh no, Ryan Gale was wearing Connor’s skin, his face still had excitement, and the spotlight flashes in front of this not-so-spacious lounge corridor. He squinted his eyes and didn’t even know which microphone he was speaking into!

This chaotic interview lasted for twenty minutes, and the stadium staff began to push away the crowd to make a way for the players to leave.

Ryan walked behind the stout security guard, he had realized that everyone’s eyes were focused on him! As the previous commentator said, he was a star in this game!

This was natural. In the game against the Goats last week, he hadn’t gotten used to his new body. His improvisational skill had played an important role in that game, but his real ability wasn’t obvious. This week, he has completely adapted to his body. In today’s game, he really shone!

In traditional Inan’s customs, the name is the most important description of a person, and the name Ryan stands for ‘run’. This is where Ryan is most proud of himself! In fact, in the interview just now, some people have started to compare the current “Connor” with the regrettable “Ryan ” three years ago!

Ryan’s face was occupied by excitement, he looked back and forth under the shining light of the spotlight, and he stretched out his sweaty palms and high-fived with the enthusiastic fans, but he didn’t know which lucky fan high-fived with him. In his previous, he had not been able to experience such a scene of being faced by countless cameras. Now he was very satisfied!

Ryan’s hearing was flooded with loud shouts, “Connor! Connor! …”

He could no longer see the people around him. His vision was replaced by blind spots caused by the spotlight, but he still maintained an excited smile, opened his hands, and countless hands high-fived his palms and separated again and again…

Suddenly, Ryan felt a cold palm grabbing his wrist and pulled him to the side!

“Ryan, run, Ryan, run! my son! Run!”

In Ryan’s ears, the shouts of “Connor” all over the world disappeared at this moment, and a voice that truly belonged to Ryan sounded! His pupils dilated due to being immersed in excitement constricted instantly.

‘Mo, mother?!’

Ryan turned his head, but there were only patches of blind spots in his vision!

“Ryan! Run”

Ryan felt a small ball of crumpled paper was stuffed into his hand, and his fingers were pressed to by a hand to hold the crumpled paper ball!

The teammates behind Ryan pushed him, and the bodyguard in front of him turned around, pushed away the crazy fans who had surrounded the “star”!

The coolness on Ryan’s wrist disappeared, and he was moving forward blankly as he was pushed forward by the teammates behind him, and the sound of “Connor” came back again. Ryan clenched the paper ball in his hand. He wanted to look back at that person, but everything in his vision was still blocked by blind spots…

…

James frowned and looked at the man beside him, “Why did you call me here! You should rest in the hospital!”

“Don’t be kidding!” Revenge, who was wearing a Bolo tie smiled and patted James on the shoulder, but probably the stitched wound was affected, his lips twitched a few times, “Hunters have no time to rest!”

“I am not a hunter!” James frowned. He followed Zach’s advice not to contact the hunter, but this guy found himself! This hunter named Revenge Gale knew James’s phone number, James’s job, and James’s home! James really didn’t know how to avoid this guy!

“No one is born a hunter.” Revenge smiled, “You should become a hunter, I have faith in you!”

“I don’t need to have faith in me. As I said before, I am a detective. I only care about things that threaten citizens! People, or monsters!” James was a little angry: “I don’t need to become a hunter to do this!”

“Unfortunately, your ability is not enough to deal with those monsters.” Revenge smiled and looked at James, “I don’t know how you solved the first attack of a shape-shifter, maybe it’s just your luck. At least, in the second attack, if it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t have been able to stand here! Am I right?

James could not refute it.

“You are very good. Moreover, you seem to have some understanding of nonhumans and hunters, but your understanding is not enough.” Revenge smiled and looked at the team coming out of [Fenway Stadium], and raised his hand weakly, “Look there, do you see the ‘monster’ you talked about?”

James looked at the rugby players surrounded by the crowd. The banners of the surrounding crowd read ‘Beavers’.

“Did you see it? Detective Rance, you are a blind man!” Revenge’s face turned gloomy and cold: “But I can tell you now that there is something in it that replaces the identity that does not belong to it!”

“What made you say that!” James had already seen the excitement of the group.

“That’s the difference between me and you, I’m a hunter!” Revenge snorted softly. “You are a detective who protects other people, but you don’t see the threat. It’s ironic, right?”
