Chapter 3 The King Family Must Return the Favor The classroom fell silent . The students stood there dumbfounded . Not only because the timid Hedy had just hit someone or Hedy had emerged victorious . But because- They hadn't even seen Hedy's movements ! Hedy's speed was like special effects from a movie ! Too unreal ! The boy who had been beaten bent his body and stood up , one hand covering his face and the other clutching his stomach , his eyes filled with shock and indignation . " Hedy , how dare you hit me ! Have you forgotten who my mom is ?! " His name was Jack Smith , and his mother , Lisa Jones , was one of the trustees at Lowell High School !

The rest of the students exchanged bewildered glances , expecting Hedy to regret or show fear . But there was no trace of fear on Hedy's face . She calmly flipped open her textbook , as if there was no one else around . The morning light cast a slanting glow on her , enveloping her in a dazzling warmth . But the impression she gave off was cold , so cold that people dared not approach her . She seemed detached from the world , both lonely and arrogantly aloof . " I must be hallucinating . How could a bumpkin become an aloof goddess ! " The less resilient children kept patting their heads with the palms of their hands , trying to snap themselves out of it . Meanwhile , Geary Village's First Hospital . In the special ward . Amos lay in bed with an IV drip , his complexion much rosier . Sitting by his bedside was a handsome man with a regal bearing and a tall stature . He was elegantly peeling an apple , his fingers long and pale , with clearly defined knuckles .

" Preston King didn't respond , continuing to peel the apple . Amos quickly exchanged a glance with his bodyguard , Michael . Wiping off a bead of sweat , Michael gathered his courage and said , " Childe King , the commander just wanted to go fishing alone in the mountains . He didn't expect to run into a foreign assassin on our territory . " " Yes , " another person chimed in . " We haven't figured out who sent that assassin . " Strangely , there's no trace or clue , considering the extensive surveillance network in the USA . " The Queen . " Preston stopped peeling the apple . " You mean the person who attacked the commander is related to this ' Queen ' ? " Michael nodded with a solemn expression . " It's indeed possible for her to pull off such a thing . " Killer Queen . It's worth emphasizing that " Queen " is not her code name , but rather the honorary title given to her by the assassin community . She had single - handedly taken down the biggest drug lord in the Golden Triangle , traversed the depths of the Amazon rainforest , and dismantled some extremist organizations .

" Michael picked up the iPad next to him , entered a website address , and a video popped up . He aimed the screen at everyone and pressed play . The video was dark , intentionally shot in low light to obscure the location , with only a faint beam of flashlight illuminating the scene . The light revealed a young boy lying on the ground , his profile displaying an innocent and fair complexion , but he was barely clinging to life . " Lucifer , come back . Don't you want to be reunited with your little brother ? " The voice echoed , and unexpectedly , the young boy gasped his final breath and became completely still .

Weren't you supposed to be more gentle ? Damn it ! " Amidst the curses , doctors rushed in and made every effort to resuscitate him , but they shook their heads helplessly . He had died .

" Michael's tone carried a hint of sorrow . The boy in the video didn't reveal his sister's whereabouts , not even uttering a cry of pain . Was he worried that his sister would return for revenge if she heard him in agony ? But his sister still returned . " Seven days after the video was uploaded , Queen returned to the organization and perished in the fire along with those people . " Michael shook his head . " So , it's unlikely that Queen planned this incident . " Preston diverted his gaze from the iPad . He couldn't believe that the mighty Queen had met such a tragic end . " Sir ! We've got Hedy's information , " a soldier saluted at the door . " Bring it here , " Amos was curious about the content of the information .
