MTL - Gold Medal Mediator-Chapter 82 Daughter of the Sea (12)

???? After hearing Sophia's words, Hua Baihe's body stiffened.

????

???? She was full of news headlines that she had seen, including the fact that she was called by the police for relevant questioning—because of the latest correspondent on her girlfriend’s phone one day.

????

???? Only black and white are left in my memory.

???? Black and white photos, white candles, black urns…

???? And those swear words that are hard to bear no matter when I think of it:

???? "I worked so hard to pull you up, after you divorced from your father, after so many years alone, I raised you such a disgraceful thing! "

???? "You said, what's wrong with your mother, do you hate me? I think I'm not good enough for you, so I'm being scolded in the spine by other relatives! Are you going to lose my face like this?!"

????"You think you two are in love together, I tell you! Love shit, there is no love in this world, and there will be no love between you two women Deformed! Heaven's law is intolerable! Otherwise, why would God not bear it and accept her?"

????…

???? Hua Baihe blinked, and then pressed back all the words that had been rolled back from the back of his mind due to the tremor. In front of him was still Sophia's beautiful face. She smiled at herself against the light.

???

???? Hua Baihe breathed a sigh of relief, and the breath slowly escaped from her lips.

???? She squinted her eyes, and finally cleared up her troubled mind.

???? "It's bad."

???? She moved her lips jokingly and asked:

???? "What? Is it really a bad guy to have such a dream?"

????

???? But her right hand was gently moved under her body, as if it was uncomfortable to use as a cushion for her back, but it was actually stuffed behind her back, holding a handful of loess, The wrists were shaking uncontrollably.

???? The magnitude of the shaking was getting bigger and bigger, which made her very worried that she would collapse before the show was over.

???? Sophia noticed her movement and thought she was feeling unwell, so her face changed suddenly, and she said with concern:

???? "What's wrong? Cold?"

???? Hua Baihe shook his head.

???? She is still waiting for this crucial answer.

???? World Will said before that Sophia has the breath of the Lord God...

???? It is difficult for Hua Baihe not to think about her relationship with the Lord God?

????

????

????Is it possible, in fact, at that time, that person had some special task, and after he succeeded, he left immediately?

???? It's like she treated Luo Sheng a few worlds ago.

???? She regards that world as the beginning of her earning 100 million yuan, and as a real-life game where a career line turns into a love line in the middle, but has to play the BE ending.

???? But she subconsciously ignored that she was not an insignificant existence in Luo Sheng's life.

???? Her departure is Luo Sheng's life.

???? Hua Baihe moved his throat and wondered if the relationship between himself and the person in front of him was a dog-blooded script of "feng shui turns, who will the sky bypass", or a "dead soul" Destroyed, but also thinking about the lover" inspirational emotional drama.

???? Once some ideas come to the fore, until they are answered, they are all "wildfires can't be blown away, and spring breezes will blow again".

???? Sophia also seemed to understand what she meant, sighed, and just wanted to speak—

???? "Boom!"

???? A loud bang.

???? The whole world they were in began to tremble.

???? Siren, who was lying on Fu Guangqi's lap, was no longer lazy, and jumped up immediately, and the expression on Fu Guangqi's face became more serious.

???? Hua Baihe's chance for a showdown with Sophia was interrupted, and they had to divert their attention to see what happened in this mermaid forbidden area.

After several knots, some of the fragments were still covered with dark green moss.

???? And in front of them, is a very strange light blue sea, there is no end in sight, the farthest is connected to the blue sky...

???? The entrance to the previous pyramid cannot be found anywhere, making it difficult to imagine how one entered this world.

???? This is like a world that is isolated and isolated.

???? As soon as they got up, the world was still shaking, the ground was shaking, and the dust was rising from the messy old palace behind, The originally quiet sea trembled like boiling—

???? What's more terrifying is that this sound came from overhead.

???? Like, there is something behind the sky.

???? Siren narrowed his eyes unhappily, and looked up at the sky, ready to go, his whole body was already tense in preparation for battle, but his movements only He flipped his hair back easily, and asked Fu Guangqi next to him:

???? "I was visiting you just now and forgot to ask a question: When we came, did we come down from the sky?"

???? Previously, Fu Guangqi only said that he picked up the people here from the sea one by one, so everyone automatically assumed that the entrance was in the sea, and now he heard the vibration of the zenith , they all responded.

????Fu Guangqi nodded with a complicated expression, calmly ignoring the first half of Siren's teasing words.

???? Siren thought about it and felt that something was not right:

???? "The last time the forbidden area of ​​the mermaid was attacked was ten years later? Under normal circumstances, the coordinates of our forbidden area are difficult to find. These attackers..."

???? She didn't say anything later, obviously not quite sure of the identity of the outsider.

????Fu Guangqi is just as dumb as she is.

???? In the last life, although the forbidden land of the mermaid was also in a state that was difficult to close after opening, it was still in a state of rejection for ordinary people who had no mermaid atmosphere. The specific performance is that ordinary people see Not to the entrance of the pyramid.

???? In the eyes of those intruders, this pyramid is completely closed.

???? And only humans who are close to the mermaid, have mermaid blood, or are brought in by the mermaid can see the direction of the door.

???? What can be determined now is that the group of people outside has found the location here, and none of the mermaids has any, so they can't enter through the door. The pyramid launched a general attack.

???? But this is too fast, and it is still ten years before the survivors discovered that the special energy that caused the doomsday came from the mermaid family.

???? Did something happen?

????…

???? Among all.

???? Only Hua Baihe is not too nervous, after all, when anyone has the world's largest hanging on his body, he will be as calm as her.

???? She even glanced at the emotional progress number above Fu Guangqi's head.

???? Very poor 11.

????

???? Fu Guangqi noticed that Hua Baihe was looking at him, and was about to turn around and ask "what's the matter" when Siren's words were handed over at this moment:

????"Let me think about it, among the people who came to arrest us last time - a space ability, a water ability, a wind ability, and a few spirits There is even a wood type and one that can control creatures."

???? Siren was not as powerful as he is now in the last life, and was easily captured by these people. He even bought one for one, and took Fu Guangqi, which made her brooding until now.

???? Fu Guangqi nodded subconsciously.

???? It is impossible to say that he has no resentment towards these people. He is emotionally indifferent, but it is not that he has no human feelings. The pain of being tortured day after day on the operating table is still in his mind.

???? Almost made him suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder syndrome after rebirth. When he picked up the scalpel again in college, he even cut off the mouse aorta in the clinical experiment. trembling, almost got zero points for the first in-class experiment in history.

???? However, after the thought flashed by, he suddenly realized something and turned his head to look at Siren.

???? "What did you just say—"

???? "'We', what's the matter, I really think my brain will not work for the rest of my life? Can't think of the right thing?"

???? Siren raised his eyebrows at him, with a little provocation in his smile, but not all of it, there was a little provocation in it, like seduction.

???? Later, Sophia, who had no time to explain things to Hua Baihe, saw this scene: "..."

???? She remembered something.

???? The essence of human beings is lemon essence.

????

???? She took a step forward and said slowly: "The situation outside is still uncertain, we all rush out and are easily wiped out by people, this is the embodiment of 'capable people' It's time to work hard - great patriarch, your weak and helpless people are waiting for your protection."

???? That hypocritical flattery without any reverence made Siren especially want to slap her face with a tail.

???? Poor and helpless?

???? Which adjective is associated with Sophia?

???? Does she dare to double standard more thoroughly?

???? Siren was almost turned around by her words and fought with his own people first.

???? Hua Baihe just wanted to watch the play with gusto, but found that Fu Guangqi wanted to lead the way, so frightened that she quickly picked up her unfamiliar persuasion skills, and took the lead in inserting a sentence:

???? "Do you want to fight inside or go outside?"

???? As soon as the voice fell, in the background sound of a big hole in the sky, Siren and Sophia turned their heads to look at her, and said in unison:

???? "What do you mean?"

???? Hua Baihe patted the dirt on his back and buttocks, and pretended to be forced with a leisurely expression:

???? "Yes."

???? "Didn't I have a dream before? As a result, your ruins have been in this icy seabed for too long, giving birth to your own consciousness, feeling cold and lonely, I couldn't help but got into my dream and pulled me to chat with her."

????"Finally, she was convinced by my rich knowledge and experience, and desperately asked me to take her out to see the world. The advantage is that I accidentally got access to this ruins Control."

????Hua Baihe used a very modest tone to simply give everyone a popular science, with "but that's it" written on the left face and "trivial matter" on the right face, obviously he was selected African chiefs, but they pretended to be the emperor of Europe.

???? Sophia, Siren, Fu Guangqi: "…"

???? Will of the World: "…"

???? Finally, Siren wiped his face and looked at his object: "I don't read much, tell me, is this true or false?"

????

???? Just when he and the object looked at each other, Sophia said: "Go out and fight, there is no need to disturb the deceased."

???? Hua Baihe nodded and asked the will of the world in his mind:

???? "Ready? (Ready?

???? In the end, before she could shout "Go!" in the sea outside the pyramid.

???? After seeing the situation in front of them, they realized something was wrong.

??? The almost negligible man quietly watched the direction in the tower from a distance.

???? Sophia frowned a little displeasedly. She didn't think that she didn't want to affect more animals before, and the idea of ​​trying to save the life of this ancient emperor. Send a big battle to the current enemy.

???? I don't know if the mosasaur itself has a grudge against the people on his side and is willing to act with those people, or the ability to control creatures is too strong.

???? But there is no doubt that those who are dealing with them at the moment should be members of the top powerhouses on the continent.

???? Sophia counted, and there were eight people in total.

???? Everyone feels a strong sense of threat to her.

???? This is by no means a strength that has only passed a few months in the early days of the apocalypse.

???? In fact, not only her, but Siren and Fu Guangqi were equally shocked.

???? Eight to four.

???? No, it should be 8 to 3.1, Hua Baihe's combat power is at most 0.1 in their eyes, and it may even detract from their own strength.

????

???? Hua Baihe looked at the faces of his teammates and seemed to know what they were thinking, and was the first to ask questions:

???? "Before I start, let me ask—"

???? The power user team on the opposite side heard her voice, and the leading water power user glanced at her, waiting to tell her that it was the big price paid by the pill company. There is a debt and an owner. After death, remember to seek revenge on the right person.

???? However, before the words were spoken, the leader was stunned.

???? For no other reason, this person makes him feel really... too weak.

???? It's like those people on the street who are lingering under the threat of zombies and struggling to survive. It sounds ugly, an eight-year-old child who has awakened his ability is better than her Threatening.

???? The leading water-type ability person quietly raised her vigilance-because he felt that the person who could enter and exit with the mermaid would not be any ordinary person, this person must be Is too able to hide their own breath.

???? Just when he concentrated his attention to the extreme, the other party really took over:

???? "Which year is this year?"

???? In the situation where the swords are drawn, these words seem a little mentally retarded, as if a group of people with normal IQ suddenly mixed in with a crazy fool.

???? The members of the group of capable people on the opposite side were silent for a while, or the deputy captain replied:

???? "2028."

???? Hua Baihe and his party: "…"

???? Siren and Fu Guangqi looked at each other subconsciously, and they both saw the incredible in each other's eyes.

???? They only went into the pyramid for a few hours, but outside... Ten years have passed?

???? Sophia also had a thoughtful look on her face when she heard this answer.

???? Hua Baihe is the calmest one, because the will of the world explained it to her in a timely manner when she asked a question.

???? In the forbidden area of ​​the pyramid, the later members of the mermaid have made some restrictions, in order to preserve the power in the bodies of the patriarchs and elders, so that the power can be maintained for a longer time, So that every time the patriarch scales leave the patriarch's body, they can still exert the greatest effect, and the time flow inside is very slow.

???? is almost compressed to the extreme.

???? So at the moment, Hua Baihe just nodded, made a simple py transaction with World Will, and nodded to the captain of the opposite ability team, politely replied :

???? "Okay—"

???? Before the syllable of the last word fell, her figure suddenly disappeared in place, and rushed to a position under the four of them.

???? At the same time, her brainwave voice transmission has also reached the minds of Sophia and others:

???? "Not much to say, let's fight first! I'm going to catch the next one who is hiding. This guy is hiding quite well."

???? Sophia and the others were stunned when they saw her rushing out without hesitation.

???? Fu Guangqi and Siren did not expect Hua Baihe, an ordinary person, to be so fierce in a fight.

???? Sophia was the first to catch up with her!

???? She knew that Hua Baihe never did anything unprepared, either because he hid a hand of cards in his hand earlier, or when he entered the pyramid just now, he encountered something extra 's adventure.

???? So when Hua Baihe was transmitting her voice, she was already swimming towards the sea at high speed, and at the same time, thin purple lightning flashes flashed in her eyes.

???? On the sea, the dark clouds in all directions heard her call and gathered again in this sea area. Concentrated in one place, it is accumulating the energy that will wipe out the world.

????Under the sea.

????Hua Baihe flew towards the bottom of the water like a fired cannonball. , this is the rhythm of saying nothing is doing!

The dark blue gradually turned to dark green. Siren and Fu Guangqi avoided being entangled by the kelp while avoiding the water blade from the water-type ability.

????Green seagrass floats around in the sea, turning the already dangerous Bermuda Triangle area into a sea area that makes ordinary people more daunting.

???? The waterspout on the sea surface and its formation, Siren and Fu Guangqi are still at the bottom of the sea, but there is no trace of the enemy.

???? She wanted to use her teleportation space ability several times—

???? came, but found that when he wanted to activate, the surrounding space began to produce a distorted wave.

???? It seems that someone has located the position of the space distortion, as long as she dares to move, the next moment, those space capable people can immediately lock the place where she appeared, chasing and appearing near her, mass attack on her.

???? So, Siren had to use his sharp nails to tear up all the seaweed that dared to float over.

???? She has even activated the possessive power of the patriarch's scales in advance, so that she can barely protect herself, and at a critical moment, Fu Guangqi is removed from the moss dragon's strong bite mouth Drag away!

???? The other party and the human who can control the creature are hidden in the surrounding seaweed.

???? She had to exert all her energy to be able to barely protect Fu Guangqi under the explosive force of the moss dragon.

???? And Fu Guangqi is not easy, he is trying to find the location where those spiritual powers are hiding—

???? The combat effectiveness of these people is not high.

???? But as long as they exert force at a critical moment, affecting their brain instructions, and just a momentary absence, they will face failure.

???? At the same time, Sophia has surfaced to the sea, her big move has long been brewed, but she can't cut directly into the sea.

???? Water conducts electricity unless she wants to paralyze all her teammates.

???? Of course, Siren and Fu Guangqi don't care, but Qu Muchun is still underwater.

???? Thinking of this, the anger between Sophia's brows became heavier, looking at the two water-based and wind-based power users who had followed out of the sea, a touch of lips appeared. sneer.

????…

???? In the battle, life and death have become fleeting.

???? But Hua Baihe is no longer nervous.

???? She was with what she caught, or was not moving at all, and let the opponent she grabbed look at each other, seeing each other's mistakes in each other's eyes.

???? "Summer single?"

???? Hua Baihe was stunned and spit out two bubbles.

???? Fortunately, the other party could understand, she nodded helplessly, looked at the seaweed in all directions, and said:

???? "Why are you here?"

???? "I am because the benefits given by the pill company are too good. They have also researched the evolutionary direction of the power. In order to support my family, I came to participate in this event."

????"In the content of the mission, it is stated that we need to bring back some samples from the burial belt of the merman, so that the pill company can better study this energy, and by the way, we can catch one or two merman It's better to be alive, and it turns out you—when did you mess with the merman?"

???? Xia Dan put his head aside and looked around, only his words blasted towards Hua Baihe like a cannonball.

???? Hua Baihe groaned for a while, barely knowing that he had not had an easy time in these ten years, so he could only sigh:

???? "I don't have time to explain it to you. Anyway, the pill company is not a good thing, you already know it."

???? Xia Dan still didn't look at her, just nodded.

???? In fact, he only intends to explore ruins with these people, catch living bodies or something... He will never plan to participate.

????

???? Now Lisa's abilities are becoming more and more conspicuous. With Lisa, he doesn't dare to take refuge in any big base, and he doesn't dare to casually resemble ordinary people.

???? Because Lisa's ability evolves in a different direction from that of ordinary people, the stronger she is, the more difficult it is to control.

????

???? Once, he took Lisa to a small town, just in time for the arrival of the zombie tide, Lisa sleepwalked out in the middle of the night and stood at the gate of the town , stood facing the direction where the zombie tide was coming.

???? As a result, the night watchman in the town fell asleep on the tower watching the wind.

???? When I woke up, I found that the zombies were almost at the foot of the town, but they turned around and left together, so scared that everyone would talk about this the next day, and that night, it happened to be Xia Dan alone I haven't slept for a week, and it's rare to think about the time when someone is on guard and I can sleep a little more peacefully.

???? From the next day, the capable people in the town are secretly investigating this matter, wanting to know who caused this phenomenon, trying to find out the reason for these zombies to change.

???? Scared Xia Dan and racking his brains, trying to take Lisa away unnoticed.

???? From that day on, he no longer dared to take Lisa to stay in crowded places. After all, every time Lisa sleepwalks, there is no movement at all. Xia Dan usually relaxes a little. , it is easy to turn around and disappear.

???? He asked Lisa, and Lisa said:

???? "I don't know, every time they appear a lot, I feel like a voice is calling me..."

???? Lisa tilted her head to look at Xia Dan blankly, not knowing how to explain her feelings to him.

???? Xia Dan has always thought it was very strange, after all, since he knew Lisa, the other party has never been bitten by a zombie inexplicably, nor has he suffered from any strange disease.

???? So he always comforted himself, Lisa is because the power is too special.

???? Specially, it has affected her body growth. After so many years, her height has grown less than ten centimeters, and her face is even younger, as if she will never grow old in her life. .

???? So this time Xia Dan put his mind on the new achievements of the pill company.

???? I heard that the quest reward is to get the same medicine that is very effective in controlling powers, which can make ordinary people increase the probability of power awakening, and can also help power users to better discover own source power.

???? He thought about it like a dead horse and a living horse doctor, so he secretly hid Lisa, and there was a white tiger cub picked up by the two of them outside to show her Door.

???? They came to the bottom of the sea.

???? Xia Dan's ability is to hide himself, as long as he wants to, others see him like a stone and can't notice him at all.

???? This ability is similar to the mutation of the spiritual system, unless it is a much stronger existence than him, and must always pay attention to him, otherwise it is easy to be tricked.

???? And when Lisa was called by those strange zombies, she was almost as weak as him, which made Xia Dan feel powerless.

???? This time, he met Hua Baihe and others, that is, he found her and Fu Guangqi at the beginning, but he did not move, otherwise Hua Baihe was reminded by the will of the world. Wherever you are, it is also difficult to move towards a given place without hesitation.

???? The reason is simple…

???? Since the end of the world, she has still been well protected, like a flower in a greenhouse. She has never experienced such an environment.

????…

????"The situation here is not good, the strongest among you is the Thunderbolt ability, but his ability is limited, the Siren's power seems to have increased, but it is not good to bring the old master Fighting people under the circumstances."

???? "Hey, what happened to the old master, he is actually similar to that siren, I can't see what kind of system he is."

???? Xia Dan has secretly joined the enemy, and is now analyzing the scene of his teammates with Hua Baihe, because one of them can share his vision with everyone and share everyone's The battle scenes are all connected.

???? In this way, the strong teammates cooperate, it is a seamless existence.

???? If it weren't for Xia Dan, Hua Baihe might have to borrow all the power of the world's will to be able to fight with these people, and now there is an easy enemy spy, she With just a little bit of the key power of the world's will, the deadlock in front of him can be easily resolved.

???? "Mermaid."

???? At this time, she humorously gave Fu Guangqi's ability a category, smiled and patted the water with Xia Dan, turned around and swam towards a certain place in the water plants go.

????Xia Dan smiled—

???? As early as the moment he saw Hua Baihe, he looked away, not letting her appear in his line of sight, so as not to be caught by his teammates.

???? Now, he tied the grass around his waist, closed his eyes directly, tied the rope to her body, followed her forward, pointed out to her The position of the teammate over there.

???? "At ten o'clock, thirty meters away, is the location of the spiritual power user who can share his vision."

????Xia Dan closed his eyes, let himself float in the sea, and said to Hua Baihe.

???? Then he stopped moving, didn't do too many extra things, completely handed his life safety into the hands of the other party, and only secretly expanded the scope of his concealment ability, It also covered Hua Baihe.

???? Hua Baihe did not live up to his idea. After being covered by his hidden ability, he easily reached the place where he closed his eyes and floated in the seaweed, busy giving the audience Near the psychic capable person who transmits pictures from all sides.

???? She suddenly raised her hand and patted the man on the shoulder.

???? The man opened his eyes and suddenly saw her in his sight. He was trying to solve her by himself, and there were more capable people around trying to come and help!

???? But Hua Baihe's action is faster than they thought!

???

???? in the eyes of the other party.

???? The eyes of the woman in front of her suddenly changed.

???? The eyes that were originally clear and smiling suddenly seemed to have changed into a soul, and the colors inside all sank.

???? Those eyes seemed to have a kind smile, but also seemed to be sad, mixed together, but it was the vicissitudes of life without joy and sorrow, it seemed that he had seen this world for a long time .

???

???? But he has no time to analyze.

???? The woman placed a strange and heavy force on his shoulders, and suddenly pressed him deeper into the water.

???? He thought he was being pulled up by the other party, but the people in the line of sight and him were still on the same level.

???

????

???? "Guru..."

???? "Huh..."

???? Large bubbles came out of his nasal cavity, he raised his hand uncontrollably and pinched his neck, looking at the woman in front of him in horror, the suffocation made him feel In a hurry, he wanted to jump into the sea, but he was accidentally entangled by the water plants next to his feet. Countless blue veins appeared on his neck, and his expression was full of twisted pain.

???? At the same time, all the teammates in his camp felt the images in their minds disappear.

???? This means that this spiritual teammate was attacked and could not maintain the teleportation of the battlefield situation.

???? Some people turned around and went in his direction, wanting to see the situation, and others were still dealing with the opponent in front of him.

????…

????

???

???

???? "Watch out! There's someone on the opposite side—"

???? Before he could finish speaking, a hand suddenly placed his shoulder behind him.

???? Hua Baihe smiled at him, and then brazenly activated the energy of the will of the world.

???? After a few minutes, the water plants that were forcibly spawned slowly retracted to their original heights, and the seabed became clear again.

???? She was about to continue to deal with her opponent without a trace, but a black shadow suddenly flashed beside her.

???? Oops!

???? The one who can control the creatures and the mosasaur are nearby!

???? At the moment when Hua Baihe's life was suddenly in danger, she immediately said to the child of the world:

???? "Sorry!"

???? "It's fine, you don't mind."

???? As she spoke, the mosasaur had already rushed towards her again.

???? At the same time, Sophia on the sea felt something in her heart, she couldn't help but sigh!

???? Siren moved his tail quickly, wanting to come in her direction desperately. As soon as she moved, the surrounding space capable people followed her and locked her.

???? At that time, Hua Baihe smiled and said, "Relax."

???? She stretched out her left hand forward, and a terrifying black aura was released from her palm. It's too late to turn around!

????

???? As a result, everyone—including the man sitting on Mosasaurus, watched the next scene helplessly.

Its crocodile came out and spread to its body.

???? More and more ossified parts, Mosasaurus didn't even have time to roar, it has become a fossil-like bone.

???? Even the person sitting on it is not immune.

???? A few seconds later, a huge white bone sank to the bottom of the sea, making a soft rumbling sound.

????

???? The opposite team was stunned by her power, and Siren and Fu Guangqi also looked at her from a distance with a confused look.

???? Sophia bent her lips and praised her:

???? "Yes, what ability is this? The hand of God?"

???? Hua Baihe moved his left hand, and with a "squeak" in his heart, he quietly clenched the fingers of his left hand, hid his left hand behind him, and looked up at the direction of the water.

???

???? This scene couldn't be simpler. Before the absolute power, the opponent had already suffered enough shock, and it was difficult to continue fighting.

???? "The right hand of God, the wonderful hand rejuvenates."

???? Hua Baihe raised her right hand to Sophia on the sea.

???? That was the hand of the medium that she used the ability of the world will to recover the excess energy from those psychics.

???? But the energy released from the left hand was death energy, which inevitably caused some bad effects on her body.

????—The Will of the World did not deceive her, and its parasitism did not have side effects.

????

???? So far away, Sophia can at most see her movements clearly. Seeing her raising her right hand with ease, she didn't pay attention to the difference between her hands, and asked back with a smile. :

???? "What, you want me to experience it?"

???? "Then I don't think you might use it."

???? Hearing her voice transmission, the enemy on the opposite side: "..."

???? But Sophia didn't think it was enough, and added:

???? "But if you want to feel it, I can help you."

???? Hua Baihe understands without obstacles: "…"

???? She thought with a complicated expression:

???? How can I help?

???? Hold her hand and take her down...?
