Chapter 15 The way through a woh her stomach (2/2)
Alina then went silent after doing these things, which brought her and Alex back to an aard silence
”Uo to the next location now” Alex said as he brought Alina to his next marked destination
”Is it another foodstall?” It e of hope in Alina's voice He resisted a smirk as he shook his head
”Sorry, but its not a foodstall However, ill look for another one once this date has finished”
”Okay” Alina nodded her head obediently as she seemed happy hat Alex said
”Hirlfriend ave a leery s someone like her?”
”If I will not be bisected by her like that streetfood earlier, then being with Alina will be great” Alex thought as he and Alina arrived at their next stop
”Is this… the hospital?” Asteria muttered to herself as she scrunched her tiny nose
Asteria then let out a laugh as she shook her head wryly ”Alex, you're really dedicated on ruining your date huh”
While Asteria was belanced at the motionless Alina, as he waited for her reaction
”Well, bringing a girl in a date to the hospital surely is a wrong h to himself as he braced for Alina's reaction
”Your choice of places sure is unique” Alina mumbled as her head looked at the direction of the hospital
Alex was about to give an apologetic smile to Alina when Alina suddenly said,
”I ao to this hospital toht me here already, then I will just visit them now” Alina's ponytail swished as she rushed towards the hospital
”Seriously?” Alex could not help but facepalry at hi me?” Alina paused in her tracks as he looked at Alex ”You brought me here, so you should join me too”
”Wait, is it fine for lanced at the insides of the hospital ”Maybe your friends would not want to see you with me”
”Don't worry They won't bite you' Alina bluntly said as she continued walking
Alex could only shake his head as he followed her
”I thought this is your first time in this city If that was the case, then how come you have friends here?” Alex off-handedly asked, not realizing that is sounded a little offensive
”These friends of o” Alina said as she turned left ”They were just recently transferred here”
”Oh” Before Alex could say more, he and Alina stopped in their tracks as they arrived in a large room
In this roo with the toys around them
All these children wore hospital clothes, and the pale pallor on their faces showed their sickly constitution
But these pale faces of their turned red as they saw Alina
”Sis!” The children shouted in happiness as they surrounded Alina All of theed at her clothes
”Sis, you look pretty now!”
”Sis, I want to wear your mask!”
”Sis, you smell like food! I want food!”
Alex's face could not help but cramp as he saw the crowd of children around hiood with children, as he felt that they were too hty
At that point, Alex decided that he should leave Alina alone with the children But before he could do so, he suddenly heard Alina talking to the children
”All of you look so healthy! Are they feeding you well here?”
”What!” Alex could not help but stu out from Alina
This ay different fro earlier
It was too sweet, soa different person talking right now!
”Sis, all the food that they give us are bad!” One of the children coed her dress ”They said we should just eat vegetables, but they always taste bad”
”Don't worry, your Big Sis will talk to the in her sweet voice, which just made Alex more bewildered
This spectacle with the children continued for an hour before Alina left thee that she was reluctant to leave
”So, what is that?” Alex said as he and Alina left the room ”I could not fathom what just happened there”
”Those children are experimental subjects for inhumane Esper experiments” Alina said, with her voice back to the cold, detachedto them, so I rescued them all”
”Oh, so that is why they all call you Sis” Alex nodded his head in understanding as he saw the delighted looks on their faces
”But why the sweet voice though?” Of course there is no way that Alex would not ask about this part
”Those children cry when they hear inal voice” Alina said as she seemed to be embarrassed ”So to ensure that they won't be scared of me, I always used a sweet voice in front of them”
”You must really like children for you to do that” Alex said as he looked at Alina intently ”However, I still prefer to hear your real voice It sounds likewhen she heard what Alex said, but Alex swore that he saw a slight tinge of red in her ears
”Well, that ht to himself as he and Alina left the hospital
Alex then let out a sigh as he wondered on how Alina could be a cold-blooded executioner while also be a food-lover and a big sister
”Does she have a split-personality or soht wearily as he brought Alina to their next stop
