'UMBRELLA '

This man's name is Chris, and he is holding his company's secret documents under the subway, waiting for his trading partner.

"Hello." With this lazy tone and hoarse voice, whichever employee hears it will tremble all over.

"Boss..." These were the first words Chris mustered up the courage to say.

"What are you doing here?" Chris couldn't answer the boss's question.

Chris is Level 3. He can heat the surrounding air and condense the hot air to burn the enemy, ranging from burning the enemy to pieces to turning the enemy into dust at worst.

But he didn't dare to do this to his boss, not because his boss had any strange and powerful abilities, but because every word he said, every hand raised, every foot moved, without blinking an eye, he could make him back ten steps.

"Boss, please...please... don't kill me." Chris put down the secret document and kneeled down.

"I will not forgive traitors," he said in the most relaxed tone.

"I'm sorry! Forgive me! I did this because of my daughter's surgery fee! I'm sorry! I'm sorry..." Chris cried until his nose spit out.

"So what?"

Later, no one found out where Chris was.

Or rather, never find it.

"Hi." A red-haired girl was lying on the hospital bed, and her operation was successful.

"It doesn't hurt, does it?" Lily stood beside the hospital bed holding a plate of apples; even when she smiled, she could see the worry in her eyes.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, huh? Gordon?" The girl's face turned slightly red.

"It's strange why you didn't come to school; it turned out that you were hospitalised." Gordon said he was holding a bouquet of flowers.

"Ah, um, but why are you here?" the girl asked.

"She begged me."

"I beg you? You didn't want to come here! It's you who said you would definitely bring it with you!" Lily said as she put the apple on the table.

"oh."

"Stop messing with me!"

Someone got punched in the back of the head and managed to make the red-haired girl laugh.

"Congratulations! You made Elena laugh."

"Sister, are you mocking me?"

"That..." Elena raised her hand; she had just swallowed the second slice of apple. "Why didn't my parents come?"

"Your mother went to work," Lily said.

"What about Dad?" Elena's question made Lily not know how to answer.

"At work." Gordon said it deadpan, and Lily admired his acting again.

"Oh..." Elena sighed, but not because she found out that Lily and the others were hiding something from herself.

***

The little man at the traffic light stopped walking and raised the red flag, and the vehicles followed suit.

"Why did the driver tell us to wait for him here?" Lily complained while driving the group of cars.

"Leave that aside; is it really okay not to tell her that her father is missing?" Gordon said.

"It's impossible to hide it, but she's just had an operation, so it's better not to say it."

"you're right."

And then they fell into silence, only hearing the "ding ding" of the red traffic lights.

"Lily!" Brian's voice came from behind Gordon and Lily.

"Hey! Brian! Why are you here?" Lily rushed over happily.

Gordon looked behind him vigorously. A silver-haired man in a black and white T-shirt walked towards Lily. Behind him were a boy wearing glasses, a sports jacket, and trousers, and a black-haired girl wearing a tank top and sports shorts one size larger.

"Why are you all here?" Lily asked.

"Originally we were discussing the order of investigating companies, but because it was too boring, we came out to get some air." Brian said.

"It's such hot weather? And you all are still out!"

"That's why I wear cowboy hats." Jackson's words made Gordon notice that they each had a cowboy hat on their heads. Brian's was white, Jackson's was red, and Alicia's was blue.

"It's not fair! Give me the hat!" Lily reached out to grab it.

"Hey! Brian is in front of you! Why did you take off mine?" Jackson desperately protected his hat.

"Okay, okay, don't act like a child." Alicia pushed them away helplessly, asking, "What are you doing here again? Waiting for the driver?"

"Hmm." Lily nodded.

"We just came to visit our classmates," Gordon replied.

I don't know how long this silence lasted, and then came a voice that had experienced many vicissitudes of life, calling the names of Gordon and Lily.

The owner of the voice was an old man with white hair. He squinted his eyes and waved. His strong figure and scars proved that he had been a soldier.

Gordon quickly pulled Lily, rushed towards the grey Bugatti beside the old man, and then got into the car and left.

"Sure enough, he's a kid from a rich family." Jackson's eyes widened.

"And a rich girl," Alicia added.

"Poverty limits my imagination." Brian also widened his eyes. "Speaking of which, do you need my help writing those letters?"

"Sure, but are you sure?" Jackson hesitated.

"Sure."

"Thank you then." Alicia smiled.

"Oh, the phone is ringing." Jackson's pocket suddenly started to vibrate, and it was Uncle Hudson who came. Jackson put away the smile because this uncle must have had something serious to tell him when he called him. Him, "Hello?"

"Jackson?" A deep and pleasant voice entered Jackson's ears.

"Yes."

"Come here; there is a person missing; I suspect it has something to do with his company."

...!

"which company?"

UMBRELLA!
