I think I know him!
To prevent the conversation from turning into something violent, Shisa quickly changed the subject.
So, are you going to find your father now?
"Yes! I'm going to find my dad. He definitely won't abandon me!"
Hisa was completely confused.
The first sentence says that her father abandoned her, but the next sentence says no.
What a poor child, his mind is all muddled.
"It's okay, Hina, you'll definitely find your father!"
"Of course... I will find it!"
Hina ate heartily, speaking incoherently.
"Little Hina, what is your father like?"
"...He's fine."
How good is it?
"Very good, why did you ask that?"
"Because I envy Hina for having a father, because I don't have one."
Kohina stopped eating and looked at Hisa, who was smiling, with a puzzled expression.
"You don't have a father, so why are you so happy?"
"Well... even though I don't have a father, I still have my brother, Sheila, my teacher, and many classmates, so I'm not sad because I love them."
Hearing this, Hina continued to eat, unable to understand why he was happy without his father.
And what is love?
Is there love between me and my father?
Seeing that Kohina was no longer speaking, Hisa also left to find Ya's Tsuyoshi.
"Teacher, shall we go together to help Hina and find his father?"
He met Hisa's expectant gaze.
Ya no Takeshi shook his head and refused without hesitation.
Before Li Xiang left, he reminded Ya Demeng that the city was in chaos and it was best not to go inside.
Therefore, Yashiro had no choice but to refuse Hisa's request.
"I'm sorry, Shisa, it's very dangerous in the city right now, so I can't let you leave."
"Oh, that's a pity... But I understand, I'll go take care of Hina now!"
Children's thoughts are simple, so Shisa didn't dwell on it too much and immediately turned back to take care of little Bina.
Meanwhile, Hina was eating while observing her surroundings.
After all, Hina was trained to be an assassin, so she would subconsciously observe her surroundings.
She saw a group of children eating together, chatting and laughing.
Hina couldn't understand why these children, who had all been abandoned by their parents, would be happy.
But I'm different; I have a father...
Thinking of this, Hina suddenly looked dejected.
Because I don't think I've ever heard my dad tell me a story, or eaten a meal cooked by him.
For Hina, I felt a little empty inside.
Meanwhile, the cheerful laughter of a group of children continued to reach Hina's ears.
Li Xiang piloted the Flying Swallow and arrived at Tian Tong Mu Geng's side at top speed.
The child in Tendo Kisara's arms eventually recovered his health thanks to Li Xiang's light therapy.
After settling the sleeping child, Li Xiang received news from the city.
Someone is deliberately spreading gastroenteritis, and this gastroenteritis is thousands of times more active than the original.
Even the cursed child cannot last long before transforming into a Gastrea.
Furthermore, Rentaro has already begun investigating the culprit.
Li Xiang also received other information...
For example, even after gastroenteritis was eradicated, people all over the world did not give up persecuting children.
For reasons unknown, most of them spontaneously began to expel those children, and even harm them.
Because of the Holy Emperor, there were no large-scale harms to children in the Tokyo area at first.
But just now, gastroenteritis reappeared, and the crowd was deliberately directed to target the children.
These citizens began to gather, seize weapons from the police officers, and start hunting down the children.
Some people have even started moving towards the outer areas.
"Why is this happening..."
After learning about the actions of these humans, Li Xiang became confused.
Even though Gastrea has been purified, why are these people still turning their blades on those children?
Why make the wrong decisions again and again?
Why choose to kill each other?
This world shattered Li Xiang's ideals.
Chapter 73 Flying towards the sinful humanity.
Hisa took the initiative to take care of little Bina.
But... Hina has disappeared.
Although Shisa was also a cursed child, she had never participated in any battles, and her eyes were destroyed and she was abandoned by her mother, so she had no fighting ability or other skills.
But Hina is different.
She was an assassin trained by Hiruko Kagetane; she was a tool.
Hina underwent training in killing skills from a young age and mastered various techniques.
Escaping quietly among a group of children is as easy as it gets.
So, after she finished eating, she left decisively.
She was going to find her father.
Although she was a tool, a weapon, she had obeyed Hiruko Kagetane's orders since childhood. She probably didn't understand whether she loved her father or was simply a tool to obey orders...
But no matter what, she had to find Hiruko Kagetane.
Upon discovering Hina's disappearance, Hisa quickly went to find Ya's fierceness.
"Teacher, Hina has disappeared!"
"She's gone. She was just eating a moment ago... Oh no, she must have gone into the city."
Yagi realized that if Hina was looking for her father, then she would most likely be going into the city alone.
The bad thing is that the city is in chaos now, and it might be dangerous for Hina to go alone.
"Hisa, please wait for me here with the students. If you encounter any problems, go to Principal Matsuzaki. I'll go and bring Hina back."
After saying that, Ya put on his coat and left in a hurry.
"Takeshi Yagami..."
Shisa could only watch as Ya hurriedly left, while the other classmates, seeing Shisa as their pillar of support, sidled over her.
Faced with her classmates, Hisa had no choice but to shoulder the responsibility.
"Class, let's go back to the classroom."
Shisa could only lead everyone back to the classroom and wait patiently.
Sheila, nestled in Hisa's arms, kept struggling, seemingly wanting to leave.
"Sheila, what's wrong with you?"
Sheila looked into the distance, then looked at Shesa.
Sheila wanted to leave, but she couldn't bear to leave Shisa and the other children.
"Hila...do you want to leave and go into the city?"
Shisa astutely noticed Sheila's thoughts.
Shisa has always been a sensitive child, ever since.
"If that's the case... Hilla, you should go."
Sheila looked at Shisa, puzzled.
Hisa then raised her hand and lifted Heila up.
"Hila, thank you, thank you for liking me back then and for coming into my life."
“I’ve always thought of myself as a cursed child, which is why I’m disliked and why nobody likes me… But you, Sheila, didn’t hate me and came to my side!”
“I was so happy at the time, because Sheila was the first person who didn’t hate me because I was a cursed child.”
"So, Sheila, you must want to help other children, right? Just like when you first came to my side..."
“Hila, I’m really sad to see you leave… but I also hope you can help everyone. Brother Li Xiang has been very busy, and now he’s gone to the city. Teacher Ya De Meng has also gone to find Kohina… I’m sorry I can’t help you.”
"So...Sheila, go! Go help everyone!"
With a determined look in her eyes, Shisa lifted herself high in the air.
