Chapter 124 I Want One...
The broken streets around Jason began to slowly disappear.
Do not!
Not disappear!
Instead... be replaced!
Jason glanced at it and knew it.
Everything in front of him seems to be both real and illusory. The locust borrowed the 'river water' and its own abilities, and created it on the original basis. Now that the locust has been eaten by him, it is natural that everything returns to the original.
Although he ate the locust, Jason had to praise the opponent's ability.
Weird and silent.
It's really hard to guard against.
Of course!
It's really delicious!
Although it is only the most simple cooking method, it magnifies the deliciousness of the other party to the extreme.
Recalling the deliciousness of 'food', Jason looked at the text in front of him.
[Swallow the thief (juvenile. Seriously injured)! 】
【Excessive recovery of physical strength, energy, and injuries! 】
[Satisfaction +88]
[Satisfy degree: 88]
【The excitement of food +3】
【The excitement of eating: 3】
...
"The thief?"
"It's really an apt name."
Jason said so.
He can completely imagine that if the other party is not a wrong estimate, if he changes to other goals, he will definitely be able to steal the other party's life and occupy everything the other party should have.
Simply put, it is to become each other completely.
And the person being replaced?
Call it 'death'.
Even, from a certain point of view, such a substitution is more terrifying than death.
Think about it, your parents, wife, children, friends, become someone else's, they ignore you, show a smile to that person, give family, love, friendship, and you are watching, angry you Step forward to stop it, then be treated as a lunatic, then you are kicked out, even beaten, under the fist and stick, everything related to you becomes a tool for others to hurt you.
How would that feel?
It's better to live than to die, that's it, right?
Jason definitely didn't want to be like that.
Therefore, his vigilance against 'thieves' has reached an extreme.
"Just a badly injured hatchling can make such a change in a city!"
"What if it's a mature body?"
"I'm afraid it can really change the world, right?"
Jason pondered how to deal with the 'Stealers'.
In the end, the line of sight turned to [Protection from Evil] again!
[Protection against evil] is effective against 'Stealers', that's for sure!
The previous battle with Iona disguised as the 'Stealer' was enough to prove it!
only……
Expert-level [Protection Against Evil] is still not enough!
I want to raise [Protection from Evil] to a higher level!
Master class!
Above the master level!
Jason Anko clenched his fist and set a target for himself again.
"35 points of satiety is enough."
"But the excitement of eating at 8 o'clock... is it still 5 o'clock?"
Jason frowned.
The excitement of eating at 5 points is not so easy to accumulate.
What's more, what he pursues is not only the master-level [protection from evil].
There are even higher grades!
That said, the excitement of the 5-point meal is just a base!
"Is there any way to get enough food excitement?"
Jason couldn't help thinking.
At the same time, his eyes turned to Evelyn.
With the death of The Stealer, Evelyn regained her powers again.
But Evelyn, who was caught in self-doubt, didn't pay any attention to this. She stood there, her figure was a little erratic, and even gradually became transparent, as if it disappeared at any time.
Everyone could see that Evelyn was in a bad state at this time.
Jason is no exception.
However, what he was more worried about was Giselle.
Will Gilcher be okay?
"Don't worry, Jichel will be fine."
"I am false."
"She's the real one."
"When I'm gone, she'll wake up."
Evelyn said.
The tone was very calm.
His eyes were fixed on Jason.
The next moment, her calm tone became excited.
"Why didn't I meet you first?"
"Why am I fake?"
"Why didn't I find this before?"
There is both unwillingness and remorse, but more of it is reluctance.
She looked at Jason.
Looking at this, she thought it must be the man she was destined for.
reluctant.
It is precisely because of this reluctance that she gave up 'resistance'.
Created by the 'Stealer' and possessing part of the power of the 'Stealer', she has the power to resist.
But she didn't want to.
Because, Jason looked at her.
She would not let her "ugly" side appear in Jason's memory.
and
She, Evelyn, the queen of 'Fishbone Street'.
I will never hurt my sister, Jisiel.
She had made such an oath, perhaps false, but she took it seriously.
Since it's true, it's really... true!
call!
After venting her roar, Evelyn regained her original aura, wild and fierce. Although her figure became more erratic, she didn't care.
"Can Jason promise me one thing?"
Evelyn looked at Jason and asked shyly.
As soon as Jason frowned, he subconsciously wanted to refuse, but looking at Evelyn who was about to disappear, he finally changed his original words.
"It doesn't violate my principles, yes."
Jason replied.
"Are you afraid that I will pull you to register?"
"Who would register a marriage with a false existence?"
Evelyn looked at Jason and subconsciously laughed a few words, but this kind of teasing did not seem vulgar, but had a kind of generous feeling.
Then, Evelyn pointed to the roof not far away.
"Watch the sunrise with me."
After speaking, Evelyn jumped up, jumped onto the roof, and sat there cross-legged, looking east.
Jason appeared behind Evelyn.
Watching the sunrise would certainly not violate his principles.
Now that he has agreed, Jason will not regret it.
"Jason, do you say there is a difference between the real world and the world in front of you?"
Evelyn asked.
"Yes, the real world is crueler and scarier."
Jason nodded in reply.
Evelyn turned her head to look at Jason angrily, as if she was complaining about Jason's truth-seeking.
"I'm dying, can't you lie to me?"
Evelyn emphasized.
"I try my best."
Jason frowned and nodded again.
"Then let's continue!"
Evelyn said, cleared her throat, and continued to ask
"What about the food?"
"Just as delicious."
"Where's the farthest place you've been?"
"A place called the city that never sleeps."
"Is it nice there?"
"It's a paradise for scumbags, villains, and criminals. It's a forbidden place for ordinary people. If possible, it's best for ordinary people not to go there for the rest of their lives."
"You hate it there?"
"If I could, I would definitely blow it up."
"Jason?"
"Um?"
"Give me a special funeral, one that's different. I don't want to die so silently and plainly."
"it is good."
"Jason?"
"Um?"
"I……"
The sound stopped abruptly.
The sun jumped out of the horizon at this moment.
Gone with the wind, Evelyn.
The early morning breeze was blowing, and Jason's shirt was blown. He looked at the sunrise in the distance and remained silent.
At this moment, the entire neighborhood was completely awakened.
"Ah! There's a gas explosion!"
"The whole street is ruined!"
"Look at Dr. Hannibal, he's in a coma!"
"call the ambulance!"
"Call an ambulance!"
...
The awakened city has become extremely noisy.
But any noise, in one place, will become quiet and solemn.
A few days ago, a gas explosion in Sausage Street, miraculously, most of the residents were only slightly injured, but the youngest daughter Evelyn of the 'Watchdog Pastry House' unfortunately died.
All expressed condolences for the death of the young girl.
They gathered here today to give this girl a ride.
"Sisters Jichel and Evelyn are really pitiful. They have no parents since they were young. When they were young, their elder sister took care of her younger sister. When her elder sister was unconscious because of an accident, her younger sister took care of her, relying on the pastry shop to maintain medical expenses."
"Now that my sister is dead, what should Jichel do?"
"Oh, how pitiful."
Sighs sounded in the crowd.
People silently presented bouquets.
However, the eyes of these people involuntarily turned to the side of the cemetery.
There, a tall figure in a black suit was standing there. It was a sunny day, but he held a black umbrella high. The other party seemed to have come to attend the funeral, but he did not join them, he just watched from a distance. , the expression on his face is full of indifference, his eyes have a trace of sadness, but they are filled with an inexplicable calm.
Who is this?
It feels so mysterious and a little scary.
No words are needed.
No extra action is required either.
People who attended Evelyn's funeral were subconsciously attracted to seeing Jason like this.
Even when they were about to leave, people looked back at Jason in this look from time to time.
And at this moment, Jason moved.
He strode towards Evelyn's tombstone.
Look at the tombstone engraved with Evelyn's name.
Look at the tombstone engraved with the dates of PY78.9-PY87.1.
He bowed slightly.
Then, he lowered his voice and said
"The organization won't forget you!"
This lowered voice reached the ears of the people who had just left.
Those who attended the funeral stopped in their tracks.
organize?
what organization?
They looked at each other in amazement, and when they went to find Jason's figure, Jason had already disappeared.
Only an open umbrella was left, lying quietly in front of the tombstone.
The wind blows.
The opened umbrella rolled slightly and leaned closer to the tombstone.
Like snuggling.
Under the sun, the figures of the tombstone and umbrella were drawn very long and very long.
...
Xindecheng Hospital.
Inside Ward 141.
Suddenly there was a burst of laughter.
Jisiel, who had been in a coma for several years, woke up.
She woke up laughing.
"Hahaha, Jason is so funny!"
"As expected of the man I liked!"
She smiled like that.
"Evelyn, as a girl, you can't say that."
The soft and weak voice of the female pastry chef suddenly sounded in Jichel's mouth.
"I know, I know."
"However, don't you think Jason is funny?"
A wild voice also came from Jisiel's mouth.
The weak voice hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in recognition.
"Yes, it's interesting."
"Wouldn't that be fine?"
Wild Voice laughed again.
Then, she tore off the bedding on her body, and wearing a hospital gown, she just got off the bed, strode out of the hospital, and whispered as she walked: "The city that never sleeps, the city that never sleeps... Be there obediently. Just wait, I'll find you!"
"Evelyn, isn't it good for us to leave like this?"
The voice of the female pastry chef sounded again.
"Don't you want to see Jason sooner?"
Evelyn asked back.
The female pastry chef was silent for a while.
Of course she wanted to see Jason.
The kind that can't wait.
"what should we do?"
asked the pastry chef.
Evelyn didn't answer directly, but turned and walked towards Pea Corner Street, looking at the familiar garage door, she grinned and revealed a wild smile.
"'Fishbone Street', your queen is back!"
