Chapter 60 The New Mask

“My mom always tells me to keep a smile at people.”

"She said this makes sense and brings joy to the world."

New York City Center, on the roof of the street.

Under the clown mask, Arthur murmured himself.

Raising his hand to stop the agent Zhou from shooting preparations behind him, Amanda carefully controlled his sight and avoided the clown mask on Arthur's face.

Meanwhile, continue.

"It sounds like, your mother is a good person."

Carefully maintaining his posture, Amanda held her breath, avoiding her unintentional actions, and angering the clown in front of her.

"Of course, she is the kindest person I've ever seen."

"Can you tell me more about your mother?"

In his mind, Amanda recalled the information that agent Zhou had just mentioned before, and asked.

"My mother always teaches me not to forget to smile and put on a happy smile. She said that my mission in life is to bring joy to everyone. I originally thought that this was just her comfort to me, just like the hope that all mothers would have for their children, my life will never be as happy as she expected, until I met the homeless man, and he gave me happiness..."

"tramp?!"

When Amanda's eyes changed slightly under the gas mask when she heard the homeless man appearing from Arthur's mouth, she felt that she had vaguely grasped something.

"Can you tell me what a tramp is, Arthur."

She lowered her muzzle, showed harmlessness to Arthur, and asked tentatively.

"Home, I'm..."

Faced with Amanda's questioning, Arthur in the car lowered his head and made a thoughtful expression.

"Do you want to hear a joke?"

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha..."

However, the next second, he raised his head and burst into his mouth with sharp laughter.

He smiled and waved his arms, and the pistol in his hand moved.

Bang!

A bullet shot from a distance, roaring through Arthur's body.

"Damn it!"

Looking at Arthur who was hit by a bullet, Amanda's expression suddenly changed under the gas mask, and she turned her head to look at the agent Zhou behind her.

"Not me."

When he met Amanda's eyes, the expression under the mask of Agent Zhou Zhou was also surprised.

At this moment, the second bullet flew over, hitting Arthur's body and splashed a lot of blood. The impact of the bullet caused Arthur to roll off the roof of the car and fell heavily to the ground.

This time, the direction of the ballistic is very obvious, and it comes from a distance.

"The sniper rifle is the FBI."

In an instant, Agent Zhou reacted.

"With a sniper, everyone will find cover immediately!"

Seeing the sudden appearance of sniper, the surrounding city police exclaimed and hurriedly avoided.

In the city center, looking at Arthur who was hit by a sniper gun, a determined look flashed across Amanda's face under the gas mask. The next second, he gritted his teeth and rushed towards the direction where Arthur fell.

"Wait a minute, Amanda..."

Looking at Amanda who rushed out regardless of danger, the expression on Agent Zhou Chenmo's face changed significantly.

...

"Sir, there are irrelevant people who break in."

In the distance, in the tall building, looking at Amanda who rushed into the shooting range, the sniper stopped his shooting and reported to the contact equipment in the headset.

"Has the target shot dead?"

"The bullet hit the target twice in a row, in the chest and abdomen."

"The mission is over, and the rest is not our responsibility."

"Affect the order."

Hearing the command of the headphones, the sniper gave up the preparation for the third shot, glanced at the city center through the scope, and then quickly collected the equipment and retreated.

...

"Tell me who the homeless man is!"

After rushing to Arthur, Amanda looked at the clown lying in a pool of blood, took off the gas mask on her face and questioned.

"Ahem..."

He opened his mouth and coughed up a lot of blood from his mouth, and a bone-thrusting pain swept through Arthur's body.

The clown mask on his face showed obvious cracks due to the impact of the collision. He raised his hand to take off the mask on his face, revealing his withered face. Amanda's voice became sometimes dissipated, and blood kept flowing out from the wounds on his chest and abdomen, rendering the green vest into a bright red tone.

In the severe pain, Arthur grinned and showed a happy smile, lay on the cold ground, and began to hum the song with laughter.

“Mama, just killed a man, (Mom, I just killed someone)

Put a gun against his head,

Pulled my trigger, now he's dead,

Mama, life had just begun,(Mom, life has just begun)

But now I've gone and thrown it all away-

Mama ooo,(mom, woooo...)

Didn't mean to make you cry-

If I'm not back again this time tomorrow-(if I'm not back again this time tomorrow)

Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters-

Too late,my time has come,(too late, my time has come)

...

Gotta leaves you all behind and face the truth-

Mama ooo-(any way the wind blows)(Mom, wuwu...)

I don't want to die,

I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all-

...

But I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me-

He's just a poor boy from a poor family-

Spare him his life from this monstrosity-

Easy come easy go-, will you let me go-(It's easy to come and go, will you let me go?)

…”

...

Central Street in New York.

The songs hummed in Arthur gradually became obscure until the end.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

“Hahahaha…ha…”

The laughter in the mouths of the people around them who kept making wild laughs and the guests at the bar also weakened, and finally stopped and began to breathe in big breaths.

“…”

Amanda slowly stood up next to Arthur's body.

Looking at Arthur's smiling corpse and the clown mask at hand, his expression was a little silent.

...

At the same time, in a corner where no one knows it.

A homeless man wrapped in a shabby cloak stopped his wandering steps. He looked down at the mask in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on his rough face covered with wrinkles under the cloak.

He stretched out his rough fingers and stroked the mask in his hand.

The red clown mask grinned and showed a cheerful smile, but his eyes were filled with a look of sadness.
