A-Train's greatest pride was his speed.

If Kevin were to break his leg, A-Train would lose his advantage in The Seven.

Kevin never intended to kill A-Train.

The main reason was that both of them had tracking devices left by Vought inside their bodies.

Once Kevin killed A-Train, Vought would be able to determine who killed A-Train through the tracking device.

Kevin would not do such a self-destructive thing.

Of course, if A-Train were caught by The Boys, what happened after that would have nothing to do with Kevin.

It's just a pity that The Boys are not here now, and among the members of The Boys, Kevin currently only knows Hughie.

He doesn't even have his phone number.

So since he couldn't kill him, he could only appeal to his emotions and reason with him.

Thinking this, Kevin pressed down slightly harder with the foot that was on A-Train's calf.

"Ah… ah ah! Stop… stop! Stop!!!"

A-Train, who had already cleared the water from his lungs, cried out in pain, begging Kevin for mercy.

Kevin ignored him, he just kept his foot on A-Train's leg, half-crouching in front of him and said:

"I remember, you seem to have a race with Shockwave tomorrow? So tell me, if I break your leg now, can you still compete tomorrow?"

"No no no… please… please let me go! Deep! For the sake of us being colleagues! Please let me go!"

Involving his own future, A-Train shamelessly begged for mercy.

Tomorrow's race concerned whether A-Train could remain in The Seven; whether he lost or had to withdraw due to an incident, A-Train would very likely leave The Seven in the future.

So he had to go tomorrow, and he had to win, so he absolutely could not break this leg!

"Alright, I'll let you go."

Kevin said, very agreeable.

But just as A-Train's face showed joy, Kevin pointed to Kimiko lying on the ground and said:

"Then you let her go too, how about it? Is this a fair trade?"

A-Train's expression instantly froze, he seemed to lower his head with great difficulty, enduring the pain of Kevin stepping on his leg while also thinking about some things.

Kevin, however, didn't have the patience to wait, he pressed down harder with his leg again:

"Answer?"

"Wait! She… this girl, cannot be let go…"

"Oh? Reggie, I underestimated you, why have I never seen you so principled before? So you don't want this leg anymore, right?"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute! Listen to me! This matter is related to Homelander! So she can't be easily let go!"

A-Train finally revealed Homelander's involvement.

At this point, he couldn't afford not to speak.

If he let Kimiko go, Homelander wouldn't let him off, but if he didn't let Kimiko go, Kevin would definitely break his leg.

In the end, A-Train could only choose a compromise, revealing Homelander's matter to Kevin and letting Kevin decide for himself.

It's just that A-Train didn't expect Kevin to not care about Homelander at all.

"It's useless to mention Homelander, now you just need to answer, let go, or not let go, that's all."

"You…"

"You, you, you, what 'you'! Let her go or not, give me a quick answer! Otherwise, I'll give you a quick end!"

"Let go!!! S**t! I'll let go!! Stop pressing! It's going to break! It's really going to break!!"

In the end, A-Train could only choose to let Kimiko go.

Kevin smiled at this, he didn't immediately move his foot, but patted A-Train's face with his palm:

"Isn't that better? Why did you have to make our colleague relationship so tense?"

Saying that, Kevin finally released A-Train, and gently pulled him up from the ground, pretending to brush off the dust from his body.

Seeing Kevin seemingly letting him go, A-Train also breathed a slight sigh of relief.

It was just that A-Train quickly realized he had relaxed a little too early.

Kevin placed his hand on A-Train's stomach and said softly:

"You seemed to have drunk a lot of water just now, do you want me to get the water out of your stomach?"

As Kevin spoke, A-Train felt his stomach churning, and the liquid inside seemed to want to burst out of his belly.

Feeling the sensation in his stomach, A-Train immediately panicked:

"I… I already agreed to let her go, what else do you want to do?!"

"Nothing, I'm just concerned about you, didn't Homelander say? We, The Seven, are all one family, so we should naturally love each other, right?"

"Right… you're right…"

"Then this matter, I don't want Homelander to know about it, and you should also know what to do, right?"

At this moment, A-Train understood the reason Kevin was threatening him with his ability.

By now, A-Train had no other choice; he nodded repeatedly like a pounding garlic, his body trembling, unable to speak for a long time.

After confirming that A-Train had lost the courage to attack him and would not tell Homelander about this, Kevin smiled and patted A-Train's shoulder.

"Alright, you can go."

He said, letting A-Train leave.

A-Train, having regained his strength, turned and ran without any hesitation, quickly disappearing from Kevin's sight.

At this moment, he understood that Deep Kevin was no longer the one who was casually bullied in The Seven; he possessed strong abilities and power, and A-Train now harbored no thoughts of revenge, only fear.

In fact, at one point, A-Train saw Homelander's shadow in Kevin.

That powerful figure that made him unable to resist, overlapped with Kevin just now.

This also made A-Train feel something in his heart.

Perhaps within The Seven… things were about to change.

Annie took a long time to find Kevin and Kimiko.

Or rather, the word 'found' shouldn't be used; she was called by Kevin.

Called to a temporary room in a hotel.

To be honest, when Annie heard that Kevin wanted her to go to a certain hotel, many bad thoughts flashed through her mind.

For example, Kimiko being kidnapped and subjected to unspeakable things.

As for Kevin suddenly acting on impulse and wanting to do something, which was why he called Annie to the hotel, Annie hadn't thought of that.

Her thinking wasn't that unrestrained, and she didn't think Kevin was such a lustful person.

So upon hearing that Kevin and Kimiko were at a hotel, Annie rushed over immediately.

Then she saw Kimiko unconscious on the bed, and Kevin sitting in the corner on the sofa, staring at Kimiko, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Is Kimiko alright?"

Annie worried about Kimiko's safety.

Kevin smiled and replied:

"You know Kimiko's abilities, even if she had a hole in her head, she'd be fine."

"She has a hole in her head?!"

"It's a metaphor… do you understand metaphor? Never mind, in short, she's fine."

Kimiko was fine, except for being knocked unconscious by A-Train.

At most, the duration of her unconsciousness was a bit long.

With Kimiko fine, Annie finally relaxed, she sighed and sat on another sofa chair, covering her face with her hands supporting her head.

After a while, she said:

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought her out."

"It's alright, you're right, even if you didn't bring her out, she might have run out herself, she loves her brother very much."

Kevin comforted her.

This matter was not Annie's fault.

Kimiko only had her brother as her sole family member; in the original story, Kimiko also used various methods to try and return in the early days after being rescued.

So even if Annie didn't agree to Kimiko's request, Kimiko might have secretly run out by herself to look for her brother.

At that time, things would probably become even more troublesome.

"So what happened to Kimiko? Where did she go?"

Relaxing, Annie finally thought to ask about the reason Kimiko left.

Kevin's expression became serious, he took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, and said in a low voice:

"It was A-Train."

As expected, Annie's expression became very surprised.
