CHAPTER 09 You are one hundred percent of the "Sanctioner" lineage
What's wrong with you? Just ask if you have something to say, don't beat around the bush. This is not like you at all," Simon urged.
Lan Chujie looked at me and slightly bent down, saying: "If you wish to express your gratitude to me, then offer yourself in return"
Uncle, you are the strangest person I have ever met!
Since you have your reasons for having to leave, what else is there for you to say to me
After hanging up the phone, I tightly grasped the pendant of the necklace around my chest, and then silently prayed in my heart, hoping that God would bless me, allowing me to find Simon, and also bless Simon to be safe and sound
After writing the note, I placed it on the desk in Simon's bedroom. Although I never received any response, the note was always taken away, so I knew he must have seen it. Therefore, in the following days, I wrote down all my feelings and everything that happened on the note.
Hearing this voice, I felt a surge of joy in my heart; it is truly Simon! ... However ...? ... Who is that girl named Lirin?
"No way?" I was somewhat surprised, "It's just a choir performance, they don't need to deliberately target me, right? Besides, I haven't offended them at all."
You only need to answer my questions, no matter what you say, I will believe it
After dinner, I arrived at the place that Lan Chujie had told me about, waiting for Simon to appear. The sea breeze was strong, so I stood for a while before hiding behind a huge rock.
I... I just want to see you for the last time...
Yue Yinyin! You big fool! Why didn't you listen to Simon's explanation yesterday! ... Perhaps the Simon by the seaside isn't the real Simon. If you hadn't been so stubborn yesterday, maybe we could have kept Simon ...! ... Right! Maybe someone really wants Simon to leave, so they put on such a show for me!
Simon, I want to ask you, if you find the 'Flame of the Heart', do you have to leave?
"Alright, stop saying thank you to me. I have said it before, if you really want to thank me, then you should offer yourself in return!" After saying this, Lan Chujie playfully winked.
I truly did not expect Lan Chujie to come to my aid, especially at such an awkward moment, which moved me greatly. Moreover, Lan Chujie's actions made me realize something important. If the most needed thing when facing difficulties is the support and help of others, then I should also be by Simon's side at this moment, regardless of the danger or trouble, because Simon is very important to me! Furthermore, if I can believe in him more firmly, he would not avoid me. His silence may not be due to deceit, but rather because he did not anticipate that I would distrust him so much. He had clearly stated that he was willing to abandon his original plans for my sake, yet I still harbored doubts about him, which is truly inexcusable.
What does "百分百 ... ... 血统 ... ... 什么意思?" mean?
This guy is actually hiding in the room to read comics!
Do not play dumb! If you do not leave soon, I will... I will call the Terminator
"What a bad thing to eat!" Kexin said angrily, "They are doing well! I heard them chatting and laughing, saying they want to tell you a joke!"
I am sorry, I have to go to school! Also, I am already over three years old!
Hastily shaking off Lan Chujie's hand, I ran down the stairs on one side of the stage. However, when I reached the bottom of the stage, Simon was nowhere to be seen.
It is nothing, I am just having a chat with this young lady
Seeing me stamp my feet in anxiety, Simon suddenly smiled and said, "You are worried about me, aren't you?"
Since my account on the computer is set to auto-login, the Terminator must have seen the blueprint of the "Heart of Flame" in the computer room, and presumably has also seen the messages I posted on the forum and the tieba.
After grandmother's departure, the atmosphere fell into silence for a time, with the Terminator lowering his head, lost in thought. Given the previous few unpleasant encounters, I found it difficult to speak up.
No problem! After receiving the registration form, I smiled and expressed my gratitude to her
The process of waiting is tormenting, as I repeatedly review the words I want to say to Simon later, and the sky gradually darkens.
"It’s none of your business." Seeing the guilt in my eyes, Simon spoke, "I thought that the 'Heart of Flame' would be within reach soon, so I didn’t hide it." After saying this, Simon seemed to realize something and abruptly shut his mouth
Seeing my grandmother's anxious expression, I was at a loss for how to explain to her. Just as I was in a dilemma, my grandmother muttered to herself, "Since he took the initiative to say goodbye to me, perhaps he has found his family and intends to go back."
Yinyin, do not rush, take your time to speak, I cannot understand you like this
After Lan Chujie finished speaking, I suddenly looked at him: "You ... ... "
I was taken aback; could it be that he discovered me just now and chased after me? Or is it that he has come to continue deceiving me?
Oh! Young lady! What you said truly hurts my heart!
"Yinyin, do you really not believe me?" Simon asked hoarsely as he saw me about to leave
Thinking of this, I turned around and ran home. At this moment, I could only place my hopes on Lan Chujie!
But... I don't know anything at all
Go back
As I cried and cried, I lost track of time and fell asleep. When I woke up again, it was already the next morning. After washing up, I hurriedly ran downstairs, but I did not see Simon anywhere; not even in his room was there anyone.
Grandmother was organizing the goods. Upon seeing me, she sighed and said, "Simon just came back for a while, said goodbye to me, and then left without mentioning where he was going"
Out of curiosity and uncertainty, I did not go out; instead, I shrank my body inward to avoid being discovered by the other party
Upon hearing my words, his expression froze, as if he had been struck by a pressure point, standing awkwardly in place. I pushed down on the bicycle pedal, preparing to leave
"Simon?" I called out while walking outside. Not far along, I saw a "summoning circle" drawn on the beach, with the three characters "Yue Yinyin" written inside. Suddenly, a strange feeling surged in my heart.
The last side ... ! ... No way ! He must be lying to me ! I can no longer believe his lies !
Then tell me the truth, what is the 'Heart of Flame' actually used for
Regarding Simon's evasion, I feel an indescribable sense of loss. I had previously worried that he would leave, but now it seems that there are even greater hidden dangers.
Why can't I read comics
The outdoors fell silent for quite a while, long enough for me to think that Simon had already left. Suddenly, he spoke again: "I do not know what you have heard, but I have only one thing to say: since the 'Heart of Flame' incident, I have never taken advantage of you, nor have I deceived you... After dawn, I will leave here... I will wait for you to come out." After saying this, Simon fell silent.
Thoughts were racing through my mind, and before I knew it, I had fallen asleep on the floor, only waking up when the sky began to brighten. Rubbing my cold, numb hands, I got up and opened the door, revealing only a deep blue sea view before my eyes
After the literary committee member left, Shishi's expression was somewhat subtle. She grasped my shoulder and said, "Yinyin, I feel that there is something suspicious about this matter"
Grandmother's words pierced my heart. Simon has truly left! He didn't even intend to listen to my explanation or say goodbye to me
I nodded repeatedly, refraining from expressing my gratitude verbally, and instead prayed in my heart that he would encounter a more suitable girl
Ah? Lan Chujie looked at me in shock
Thank you
"Shut up." Simon gripped Lilin's chin, his fierce expression instilling fear in me. If it weren't for that face, I would hardly believe he was the Simon I knew!
"Lan Chujie..." I exclaimed in astonishment
Perhaps it is because of my deep affection that I feel particularly sorrowful. After returning to my room, I closed the door, and tears finally flowed uncontrollably. ... Looking at the closed door, I thought that as long as Simon explained to me, even if he were to deceive me, I would still believe him, but he did not ...
Did Simon not deceive me? Is it true that he will leave after dawn? If it is true, will he never return? Will I never see him again? Thinking about how stubbornly I insisted yesterday, I wish I could slap myself a few times!
It's okay, I will be careful.
I lowered my head, Lan Chuge refused to back down, the uncle remained silent, and the eerie atmosphere lasted for a while. Suddenly, the uncle burst into laughter and said, "Oh! Young man, your persistence towards the young girl is truly touching! Even I, a vampire, am moved to tears. That's it, I will turn into a wisp of smoke and go with the wind!"
It is none of his business
Having received the courage from Lan Chujie, I nodded vigorously at him and began to sing along with him
Ah, Lord Demon King... I have... something to attend to.
Could it be that something has happened? I will go and take a look. I stood up, just about to search for it, when the arts committee member suddenly ran towards me in a flustered manner
"Grandma, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" I questioned.
"Simon! Where are you, Simon?" I shouted loudly to the surroundings, but the only response I received was the sound of the waves.
How could this be? Could it be that... I couldn't help but speculate, recalling the reason I was pranked last time.
"It’s alright, I haven’t used any magic. Even if he is the 'Sanctioner', he won’t be able to do anything to me." Lan Chujie signaled me to relax, but despite that, I still nervously stared at the uncle
Hmm, you are a strong child, and your parents will be proud of you. Oh, and I accidentally saw a painting in the computer room, and as far as I know, it is the 'Heart of Flame'. I do not wish to inquire about where you obtained it, but you must know one thing: if the demon race comes to planet M6, due to the laws of space, their abilities will weaken after entering planet M6, and the 'Heart of Flame' can help enhance their magical power
Just as I finished speaking, Kexin ran over from a distance and said, "Yinyin! I just saw the two girls who sang with you when I was coming from the school infirmary!"
Simon's words, every word and sentence, felt like sharp thorns, piercing deeply into my heart. I don't want to listen anymore, I dare not listen anymore, I just want to escape far away, leave this place, even if they find out, I don't care!
"Uncle Zhong?" I repeated in astonishment, hardly able to believe that the uncle who enjoys role-playing is a friend of my parents
After hearing my words, Lan Chujie was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "It seems that I have gained something today, at least you can make jokes now"
Oh! Girl! How could I possibly deceive you? Do I look like a swindler to you?
"Really, I must have owed that guy something in my past life," Lan Chujie paused and said, "Let's go to the beach tonight and take a look; some people say they have seen him there."
"Have a sip of hot milk tea." Lan Chujie walked over to me and handed me a steaming cup of milk tea
Upon returning home, just as I closed the door, I felt as if all my strength had been drained away, leaving me completely collapsed on the floor, tears streaming down my face. I recalled the days spent with Simon, those sweet and happy moments, which seemed like the greatest joke, mocking how foolish and naive I had been
No! I definitely won't be able to finish this song! Just as these thoughts kept popping up in my mind, a figure suddenly stood up from the audience, walked to the side of the stage, took the microphone from the host's hand, and walked straight to me. They grabbed my hand, and the audience below immediately fell silent.
Grandma! Have you seen Simon? I rushed to the grocery store and anxiously asked Grandma.
Are you saying to invade planet M6? Simon remained silent for a moment and said.
Is that strange old man the 'Sanctioner'? I asked, suppressing the anger within me
"Not good, Yinyin! The two classmates who were supposed to sing with you are now in the school infirmary. It seems they have food poisoning, so you might have to perform alone," the arts committee member said to me apologetically.
After the Terminator left, the news that "my parents sacrificed themselves to prevent the invasion of the Simondondo family" echoed in my mind, leaving my heart in a state of turmoil
Upon hearing my words, Simon frowned and said, "I... I cannot answer you right now"
No, it's just carrying the clan name 'Simon Monto', without any blood relationship.
My parents are actually "sanctioners"!
Seeing Simon's indifferent demeanor, I stubbornly replied
Do not entangle her any further, she is just an ordinary girl, you know the rules! Lan Chujie protectively placed me behind her
When he sets aside his playful personality, the uncle exudes a particularly commanding presence, and I hardly dare to look him in the eye
So... what should I do? I was so angry yesterday. Simon told me that he would leave at dawn, and I... I...
Damn it! They actually used "Illusion" to create a misunderstanding between Simon and me! I was really foolish; I could have just asked Simon directly to clarify!
Knock knock knock! Finally, I could no longer resist knocking on Simon's door
Listening to my grandmother's words, I recalled that the Terminator once said I looked familiar. At that time, I thought he was just trying to get close to me, wanting to know some news. It turns out he actually knew my parents!
Oh! Young lady! Please wait a moment! Suddenly, a voice sounded behind me
Lan Chujie! I exclaimed excitedly as I recognized the person approaching.
"You guessed correctly! It is indeed because of Lan Chujie!" Kexin nodded, appearing to have heard something that made her so certain.
You ... ... '' I looked at Simon, unsure whether I should voice the questions in my heart
They are just jealous! You wait, I will go find them with Kexin!" Shishi looked furious, grabbing Kexin and preparing to leave
Yes, it is, of course! By the way, we have guests at home!
Does "branch" mean relative?
By the way, there is one more thing. Before leaving, the Terminator looked at me very seriously and said, "Recently, the border between the Demon Realm and Planet M6 has been quite unstable, and that side seems to be stirring. I know you are acquainted with people from the Mosidel family; they are fine, but if it is someone else, you must stay away! Especially the Simondondo family! It was the Simondondo family that invaded Planet M6, relying on the 'Heart of Flame,' and your parents were sacrificed during that incident!"
I will accompany you. " Lan Chujie smiled slightly and then began to sing.
Ah! Is that so... This is clearly a choral piece, how could I possibly sing it well all by myself? But I can't make things more difficult for the arts committee member, can I? Alright, I can do it.
Such trivial commotion would not attract their attention Simon shook his head
Yinyin, I have something to tell you! Simon continued to shout.
As the accompaniment gradually began to play, I glanced at Shishi and Kexin, gritted my teeth, and steeled myself to step onto the stage
Yin Yin. Lan Chujie suddenly sighed, "With you like this, I have no way to let go."
Upon entering the living room, I was just about to greet my grandmother when I saw someone I least wanted to see, or rather, someone who should not have appeared.
"Why did you suddenly ask this?" Simon clearly did not want to answer my question
You are one hundred percent of the "Sanctioner" lineage, the Terminator continued.
What are you doing
Sigh! The Terminator suddenly let out a breath, "You simply lack the ability to 'attack'. Your parents hoped for your healthy growth, so they only retained the 'defense' aspect. If you come into contact with someone who can wield magic, you will find that their magic has no effect on you."
Oh! So that's how it is
"Grandma, where is Simon?" I asked in confusion as I saw Grandma coming out of the kitchen
Keep it up! Yinyin, you can do it!
What?
What kind of guest?
Ah! When did you come back? I was so startled that I exclaimed out loud
I do not disbelieve in the Terminator; I simply do not wish for a plot of "family feud" to occur in my own life. I used to laugh at Lan Chujie and Simon being "arch-enemies," but I never expected that it would now happen to me.
Yes! Friend!
Do you still remember when we first met? At that time, you were not so sentimental. If you continue to be gloomy for him, I might just take you away.
Isn't Lan Chujie a member of the demon clan? If the strange uncle is the "Punisher," wouldn't that be disadvantageous for him?
Indeed, the one sitting on my sofa is none other than the Terminator! ... However ...! ... his surname is actually "Zhong"!
"Fool." Lan Chujie held my hand and said, "As long as you are happy, that is all that matters. Moreover, I must admit, it feels a bit strange not having that idiot to spar with me in banter."
"Has the guest left?" Simon's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
I ran all the way out of the theater, and even hurried back home, but I did not see Simon's figure.
Stop! If you say thank you again, it means you do not consider me a friend
The Simond family! ... Upon hearing these words, my heart suddenly twitched violently, this ...? ... is this not the family of Simon?
Eh? Strange uncle? Why has he appeared again? Moreover, this time his outfit is actually that of Cain from "Blood of the Saints and Demons"? Naitrold.
I bit my lower lip, hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke up: "You should go! Since you have already left, why come back?"
Upon hearing Kexin's words, I widened my eyes in shock, finding it somewhat hard to believe
The weather has unknowingly turned cold, the leaves are swept up and then fall by the wind, and the paths in the campus are covered with golden yellow fallen leaves. Recently, my favorite thing to do is to sit on the school rooftop and daydream.
Thank you. I smiled as I took the warm milk tea can, "How did you know I was here?"
We will cheer you on
Hearing news about Simon has indeed lifted my spirits, and I have decided to go to the seaside tonight. If I truly see him, I must express everything in my heart, letting him know that no matter what, I will always believe in him and how much I miss him
"How could that be?" Liling was not angry; instead, she smiled even more charmingly. "I am just here to help you find the 'Heart of Flame' more quickly, so you won't have to continue staying at that human girl's house, pretending to be kind. Or are you saying that you have really fallen for that weak human..."
Hmm. I nodded.
"Go after him." Lan Chujie said with a smile, standing behind me
Hmm. Lan Chujie nodded
Thank you. Apart from thank you, I do not know what else I can say
The day of the school's literary and artistic performance is approaching quickly. Although I informed Simon about this in a note, I am not sure whether he will come or not
Fortunately, the matter I was worried about did not occur. Although I had not seen Simon for several consecutive days, I learned about him from my grandmother. Just as I had been avoiding him before, it seems that this time it is he who is avoiding me. However, knowing that Simon has not left brings me some relief, though the "sanctioner" has already become aware of the situation, and I am very concerned that he may encounter some danger
"What is wrong with you?" Seeing my expression was not good, the Terminator asked
That's great! Fortunately, it is not as I imagined!
Hmm? What do you want to ask?
I held my breath, cautiously peeking out to see what had happened
What happened? Simon opened the door, holding a comic book in his hands
Indeed! Will Simon go back? If he does, what should I do? No! Perhaps there is nothing I can do.
"You all chat for a while; Yinyin has always wanted to know about her parents. I will go prepare some food for you," said Grandma as she got up and walked towards the kitchen
Colleagues? Could it be that they are also ... ...
"Of course I am here to help you," Liling said with a gentle smile. "Have you forgotten the purpose of your visit to Planet M6?"
What use? When have I ever utilized you
Since my appearance, the expression on the Terminator's face has been quite complex, resembling both surprise and sadness. I looked him up and down, and he was dressed quite normally today
You have been coming here every day recently, how could I not know? Moreover, this is my territory
Alright! I nodded with a smile
Simon raised his chin and said, "Are you questioning me?"
Do you still read comics
This word struck a chord in my heart
With a screech, as I tightly gripped the brake, the tire emitted a piercing sound. I stopped the bicycle and looked in the direction of the sound.
To be honest, I didn't feel anything while I was backstage, but as soon as I stepped on stage, I became so nervous that I couldn't say a word, let alone sing! Moreover, when the audience saw me come up alone, they began to make a commotion.
Simon
Lilin?" Lan Chujie repeated in confusion, "This seems to be a member of the Simonmond family who is skilled in 'Illusions'.
Seeing Simon's leisurely demeanor, along with the manga titled "Gintama" in his hands, left me speechless with anger
Lan Chujie and the uncle seem to know each other, and hearing the familiar tone between the two made my heart skip a beat
Ultimately, I still cannot bear it, thinking that as long as Simon leaves, whatever happens will have nothing to do with me, rather than immediately contacting the Terminator
Uncle, your outfit is quite extravagant! Also, do you really have to play the villain?
Upon arriving home, Simon went straight to his room. Although I was worried, I was also afraid of disturbing him, so I had no choice but to wait for him to come out while watching television in the living room. I changed the channels five times, yet there was still no sign of him.
The name mentioned by the girl took me by surprise; the "Simon" she referred to couldn't possibly be the "Simon" I know, could it?
Under the moonlight, Simon regained his original appearance, with silver hair and red eyes, dressed in the black cloak I first saw him in, exuding an air of arrogance. The girl beside him had long green hair, and she also appeared to be of the demon race
We are good friends, so please don't make such jokes anymore! I said, pretending to be relaxed
"Do you really know my parents?" After hesitating for a long time, I took the initiative to ask.
The next day, after having breakfast, I rode my bicycle to school early. After talking with Simon yesterday, I had insomnia all night, so now I have two dark circles under my eyes, and I look quite lethargic
Oh! Young lady! Please wait a moment! You look very familiar, perhaps I know your family. Seeing that I was about to leave, the uncle suddenly came to his senses and even grabbed my bicycle with his hand
Well, your parents are also "sanctioners." There was no concealment; the Terminator stated it directly, but this answer left me so shocked that I couldn't speak for a long time.
I have not seen them yet. Shishi stood on tiptoe and looked around, then shook her head at me
What about the others? Did you not promise me that you would not invade Planet M6? Not invading Planet M6 does not necessarily mean that you will not harm humanity
There is, but it is not our family; rather, it is a branch of the Simonmondo family.
Ah ... yes, we are ... colleagues. The Terminator also seems to have just regained his composure
Simon's reaction instantly made me feel desolate. Although he had said he was willing to give up conquering planet M6 for me, it seems he never mentioned that he would stay on planet M6
Seeing that I no longer spoke, Simon pulled me into the room, placed the comic on the table, and only after sitting down opposite me did he begin to speak: "Yinyin, do you still remember the mark on my ear? I told you that it is a spell used to conceal my aura, so you need not worry... However, I did enter the M6 planet as a 'foreign entity' without the consent of the 'Punisher'. As long as I use my magical powers, it will attract their attention, and I am mentally prepared for this."
Indeed
Upon hearing my response, the Terminator finally nodded in relief, perhaps having already guessed that I had some contact with certain members of the demon clan, yet he did not expose me.
Upon hearing my grandmother's response, I instinctively grasped the pendant of the necklace around my neck, fearing that Simon would leave without a word.
"Your grandmother does not have dementia, how could I possibly remember incorrectly!" Grandmother patted my head, "Uncle Zhong used to come to our house often, but you were too young back then, so you simply do not remember."
Ah, it is said that I must have owed that guy in my past life. Not only did he take away the person I liked, but now I also have to help you find him
Simon ... ... I want to ask ... ... '' How can I even bring myself to ask this? Should I just directly say, ``Hey! I heard that your family is responsible for my parents' deaths''? And then what? If this matter is true, what should I do? Seek revenge?
"What exactly happened? Did you have a quarrel?" Grandmother asked
"Simon." Suddenly, a girl's voice echoed from the other side of the stone.
The Terminator frowned, appearing as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Yin Yin, you must understand that once the 'Heart of Flame' is activated, the consequences will be unimaginable. At that time, the 'Punisher' will be utterly unable to stop it..."
On that day, I arrived at school early to make preparations. Shishi and Kexin were very thoughtful and helped me prepare the performance costumes. However, the two girls who were supposed to sing with me never showed up, which made me a bit anxious
How did he see the man sitting on the sofa here? I felt a sudden panic, and my first reaction was, "Fortunately, Simon is not here"
Thank you, I said gratefully to Lan Chujie
Hmph! If he is not worried, why should I be anxious?
As the song came to an end, Lan Chujie and I exchanged a smile, while simultaneously hearing the enthusiastic applause from the audience. Suddenly, I spotted a familiar figure in the crowd
Illusion? So, what I saw at that time wasn't real then
Well! He came to see me yesterday, but I did not meet him because I had previously seen another Simon, so, so...
What is wrong with you? Am I that frightening? Simon looked at me with amusement
"Lilin, how did you end up here?" After a short while, another person responded
You may leave! I have already heard your truth! Since I cannot stop you, I will no longer be used by you!
Ah, very well. Although I still have many questions to ask, such as how much magical power can be "defended" against with "defense," it is not appropriate to keep him any longer after what he said. After all, being a "Sanctioner" is a special job
"Uncle, are you following me?" For some reason, when I heard the strange uncle's voice, I was clearly worried, but upon seeing his outfit, I could only try my best to suppress the urge to hit him.
Ah! That girl has long green hair
"Hello!" I took a deep breath, slowly calming my emotions, and spoke again, "It is like this: I went to the place you told me about yesterday, hoping to see Simon. Instead, I saw Simon with a girl named Lillian. Then Simon said that he was just using me. I was very sad and ran back home. Later, Simon came to find me again, but I did not pay any attention to him."
With the Terminator's explanation, I have finally resolved my greatest doubt! It turns out that the curses and attacks from Simon and Lan Chujie were ineffective against me, not because of my luck, but because I possess the ability of "defense"
Simon? That's right! It is definitely Simon! He actually came to see my performance!
"Yinyin, you are back! Come here quickly," Grandma called to me. "This is Uncle Zhong, a friend of your father and mother from the past."
Yin Yin ... ... Simon's voice had a barely perceptible tremor, "Did Lan Chujie say something to you?"
I have reasons that compel me to leave
It means that you also possess special abilities
Of course, as the great Demon Lord, how could I possibly develop genuine feelings for mere ants like humans! What I desire is conquest! It is war!
When the call was connected, the voice of Lan Chujie was filled with drowsiness, as if I had just disturbed him from his slumber
I have said that as long as you speak, I will believe, but you have evaded the question. How can you expect me to believe under these circumstances
Since the beginning of the school year, I have not had the opportunity to participate in group activities, so I immediately and joyfully agreed to it.
No, no, no! Young lady! How could I possibly stalk you? A handsome man like me, so upright and honest, would never do such strange things!" The strange uncle rubbed his forehead with one hand while dramatically gesturing with the other, "Oh! Young lady! Have you really never encountered any strange people?"
Hmm! If it really is Lilin, the Simon you saw by the seaside is definitely not him!
Due to the inability to meet with Simon, I had no choice but to communicate with him through a note. Although I had much to say, in the end, I only wrote about the discovery of the "Sanctioners" regarding the impending large-scale invasion by the demon race, hoping that he would pay attention to his safety
Well! At this moment, I truly find myself at a loss and can only heed the words of Lan Chujie before making further plans
"How? Do you know her?" The strange uncle released his grip on my bicycle and, changing from the theatrical tone he used when speaking to me, asked seriously in return.
Then it is correct
Lan Chujie smiled, seemingly a bit helpless, but did not say anything further. Subsequently, we entered the school together, but due to the appearance of the strange uncle, we "luckily" arrived late
I know that the cultural committee member said they ate something bad
Simon! This won't do; dragging this out is not a solution. Since we have to talk about it anyway, we might as well be more direct. As the saying goes, a long pain is worse than a short one. Have your family... ever been to Planet M6 before? I mean, have they had the same thoughts as you.
Oh no, I hope nothing has happened to him
"Lan Chujie, Simon has disappeared!"
I do not know about this, my grandmother said, if you come back, let me tell you to hurry inside
I don't know, perhaps they have gone out, and that child, Riel, is also missing
I nodded slightly, without responding
Hello
Oh, is that so... After listening, I let out a long sigh
The uncle, seeing me in a state of high alert, innocently raised his hands, tilted his head, and said: "Take it easy, just like he said, I can't do anything to him, and their family are legal immigrants, but—" After a pause, he continued, "You indeed know something."
I was determined to leave, yet he stubbornly wanted to hold me back for a conversation. Just as I was in a state of inner turmoil, a clear voice rang out, which felt like a savior descending from the heavens at that moment.
Shi Shi and Ke Xin accompanied me to the stage, and the two of them cheered for me loudly together
Lan Chujie walked up to me and, upon seeing the strange uncle, surprisingly smiled and said, "Oh, it's you! What are you looking for her for?"
Yinyin! Suddenly, I seemed to hear Simon's voice coming from outside the house
Upon seeing this, I chuckled softly and then replied, "Maybe in the next life!"
Oh no! Why is he speaking like this again
Are you suggesting that you wish to borrow her abilities to protect yourself
"It was you and Lan Chujie at school that time..." When it comes to using magic power, I immediately think of the confrontation in the student council office
Yinyin! Listen to me! Don't be anxious, you go to school first, I will find you when you arrive at school, rest assured, I will help you
Lan Chujie, I ... ... '' My nose involuntarily tinged with a sense of bitterness
"Alright, make sure to hand it to me once you finish filling it out," the literary committee member said before continuing to ask other students.
"Lan Chujie, you need not concern yourself with me, just leave quickly!" I shouted after realizing the situation.
Where are you not like a liar
Forget it, forget it, there's no time! I just stopped Shi Shi when I heard the host announce my name
But if it wasn't at that time... Ah, I understand now, was it at the amusement park! Thinking of this answer, I cannot express whether I feel moved or guilty. I remember Simon said it wouldn't have any impact, but now it seems he just didn't want me to worry
Riel's appearance clearly concealed something, but upon hearing that guests had arrived, I obediently walked towards the living room
"I am about to leave, please thank your grandmother for her hospitality on my behalf," the Terminator suddenly said, turning his gaze towards the window and hastily getting up.
Liu Chujie, besides saying thank you
You... you need not concern yourself with this matter. I assure you, I will not harm you, nor will I harm grandmother, or your friends.
But... but I really miss him
After school, I couldn't wait to get home to share with Simon about the cultural performance, but to my surprise, he was not there. "Where is Simon?" I curiously asked Rael, who was alone in the grocery store.
Is that so
Until the uncle truly left, Lan Chujie did not mention Simon, which surprised and moved me. Although they always maintained a hostile attitude, they had never actually harmed each other.
I know! I trembled as I spoke, "I have not found the 'Heart of Flame.' Even if I did find it, I would not allow it to fall into the hands of the demon race"
Has he been looking for you
Thus, two weeks of tranquil life passed, and the school's cultural performance was about to begin. I originally thought this matter had nothing to do with me, but during the break, the cultural committee member approached me.
Indeed! "Heart of Flame"! ... Thinking about Simon's purpose for coming to Planet M6 and what Lan Chujie had said to me before...
Yue Yinyin, do you want to participate in this choir performance? I already have two classmates signed up, why don't you join us as well? The cultural committee member is a very gentle girl, and while speaking, she also handed me the registration form.
I sat on the ground in a state of despondency, feeling extremely distressed, unsure whether I should believe what Simon said. If what he said is true, then what was it that I saw before? The line between truth and falsehood has become so blurred that I no longer know how to distinguish between them
"What I do is not for you to question," Simon said, releasing Lilin. "If it weren't for her possessing the bloodline of the 'Punisher,' I wouldn't invest so much effort in her."
Aren't you worried? He is the 'Sanctioner'! You are a member of the demon race! You are not from Planet M6!
