Chapter 95: Tool Man
The development of things is far beyond the control of Jiang Chanji's parents, they are trapped in the strange Southeast Asia, desperate to go home to see their son, because they know that they are gone, and the son can only face the creditors who come to the door alone, including the very tricky guys, and it is too cruel to let the minor son face all this...... But they can't help themselves.
They don't know how long they've been in Southeast Asia, and in the few hours of splinter time they have been in the bare bare hours, they vaguely remember who they got a package from and sent it out.
Ten days after sending the package, they suddenly regained their consciousness and fully recovered.
Nightmares, auditory hallucinations, fragments...... They all vanished without a trace, as if they had never experienced them, as if a switch in their head had been snapped off.
The couple weren't stupid, they thought of a possibility with a little bit of total - they were just pure tool people, everything was for them to receive and send that package again.
But why do you have to let the package get out of their hands?
They knew that this matter was too bizarre and important, so they hurried to the courier company to check the receipt information of the package...... Then they saw their son's name, the address was very unfamiliar, and the package contained food and drinks.
The date of receipt of the package is the day they regain their sobriety.
They understand that they can regain their sobriety because they have lost their usefulness.
Whoever is deliberately using them at all points will end up with their son, probably because his son is not susceptible to nightmares, auditory hallucinations, and fragments, so he can only go to great lengths to fake them.
Since it was food and drinks, it was easy to deduce that the purpose of the perpetrator was to make the son eat or drink.
They are an ordinary family, they have never had a grudge against anyone, and they are not worthy of being dealt with so carefully by others, not to mention that the people who have this kind of means, it is easy to kill their family, and it is easier to kill their son, as long as they are controlled to hack their son to death with a kitchen knife when they are broken......
So, fortunately in misfortune, they believe that the package is not poison, but what is it if it is not poison?
They can't figure it out.
"We wrote this letter to you as soon as we figured out the cause and effect," the father wrote, "we don't know if you still live at that address, and we hope you haven't eaten or drunk the contents of the package, and we hope you ...... All is well. ”
"Believe us, we would like to fly back home at this time and apologize to you in person, but we can't, because a large number of creditors have already chased us here. ”
"Don't come to us, you can't find us, now we have no fixed place, the world is going in circles, where we run, where the creditors chase us, it's like walking a dog...... If we return to China, we will lead the creditors to you, and our family of three will be trapped and unable to do anything. ”
"Don't give up hope! We've been trying to find answers, we've remembered the things we've drawn, the strange sights and strange creatures, we've found some clues, and we'll solve the mystery one day!"
"We can only guess at the moment that it may have something to do with the strange powers you've had since you were a child, who is ...... Or some kind of existence that takes a fancy to you. ”
From here, the handwriting becomes illegible.
"We still have a lot to say, but we've heard the footsteps and commotion of the creditors downstairs, and they're chasing ......"
"We'll write to you again, hoping you're still living at that address, if you're not there...... We hope you are doing well, too. ”
"Take care of yourself, don't worry about us, we have a skill in it, and wherever we go, we can make money by sketching people on the street or playing the guitar, and sometimes we can even sneak into the bar and play the piano......"
"Jiji, don't give up hope, our family of three will be reunited again one day! We believe in you, and you must also believe in us!"
This concludes the letter.
In the process of reading the letter, Jiang Chanji's emotions followed this bizarre story up and down, but after reading it, he calmed down.
He read the letter from its beginning again, in case any details were overlooked.
Then he folded the letter and sat in the rental house in contemplation.
Although his parents repeatedly stressed in the letter that he should believe them, to be honest, he did not fully believe the contents of the letter.
To say why, one is that the content itself is too bizarre, and the other is that gamblers have no credibility.
With so many gamblers, how many can really turn their ways?
In other words, how could he make sure that the contents of the letters were true and not that they had made a big lie to get his forgiveness?
The contents of the letter were completely their words, and as a son, he did not notice anything unusual about them at the time.
There were ways to prove it, such as getting their medical records, which would prove that they were indeed suffering from nightmares, auditory hallucinations, and fragments, but that was beyond his means.
Or get their paintings and sculptures from the time, but eighty percent of them have gone to landfills.
As for other things, like records of borrowing money or whatever, there is no way to prove whether they did it on their own initiative or involuntarily during the break, as they claimed.
Jiang Chanji didn't fully believe it, but he didn't completely disbelieve it, for the same two reasons, one is that if they lie, they can completely pull a more credible and true lie, and the other is ...... His life really began to change after receiving that package.
The squid whiskers...... Is it that it has taken a fancy to me?
He didn't understand what was special about him, except for his strength, there was nothing extraordinary, why didn't he choose someone with such a talent as the waist disc and the shoulder carry......
Is great strength useful in modern society?
The foreman fancy him to move bricks?
Although it brought him into a strange and wonderful world, he didn't thank it much, if what his parents said was true, it really made his parents miserable, although it didn't hurt their lives, but what it did couldn't just be written off, right?
and the hardships he endured after dropping out of school, as well as the festivals he lost in order to get into the Red Leaf Academy, I feel unbearable to look back on......
And it chose him, it definitely has its purpose, it is unlikely to be alive**.
In short, whether he believed the contents of the letter or not, it didn't really matter, he couldn't do anything, he couldn't change anything.
Fortunately, my parents said that they would continue to write in the future, so let's listen to what they say and see what they do.
He put the letter back in the envelope and stuffed it under the mattress and went to sleep.
There are no entertainment equipment in the rental house, unless you use laba vinegar, chili sauce and coagulated cooling oil as "entertainment equipment".
So he went to bed early every day.
But even so, today he slept earlier than usual because he wanted to see Squid Whiskers in his sleep.
After a day and a night of tossing in the forest park, he was already tired, and he fell asleep when he lay down.
His consciousness returned to the mountains and lakes that resembled the structure of the human body.
After the last light rain, the space has become more vibrant, especially the green grass by the lake, which is thriving and quietly spreading around.
The water level of the lake has risen again, and it may have rained again when he was away, and the source of the energy that the guy had drawn from the gorilla's body.
The bottom of the lake bubbles, sometimes creating ripples, like some big fish swimming underwater.
In fact, it is indeed a fish, but it is a squid...... Or some kind of mollusk like that.
Like every half-grown child who has a dream of middle school, Jiang Chanji also had a moment when he imagined that there was a colorful dragon or something like that...... But sure enough, he thought too much, and it was not his turn to do such a majestic thing.
He controlled his consciousness to drop closer to the surface of the lake, and then shouted at the lake, "Did you do it? Let my parents have nightmares, auditory hallucinations, fragments, etc., and make them borrow money to gamble during the fragmentation?"
The sound echoed over the surface of the lake, and it was impossible for the squid whisker not to hear it, but it kept swimming underwater, and there was no intention of responding or explaining at all.
Also, how do humans communicate with squid?
Unwilling, he continued to shout: "Don't pretend to be deaf and dumb! If you want to respond, there is always a way to do it, right? Aren't you going to whisper in my parents' ears? Why don't you just murmur to me?"
Still no response.
It probably really can't talk to him, otherwise there would be no need to go to great lengths to get out of his parents' hands.
Fortunately, in addition to being frightened, his parents did not suffer substantial physical damage, and money and other things outside his body did not matter, he could see it, as long as he found an opportunity to pay off the debt in the future, the family could be reunited again.
"Why did you choose me? You have to answer this question, what is so special about me?"
This is the question that puzzles him and his parents the most, the world, hundreds of millions of sentient beings, why is it him?
The bubbles moved.
Viewed from the surface of the lake, there is a shadow in the lake that accelerates northward, pushing a large amount of water into the river channel on the north shore.
The original water in the vertebrae-shaped river swelled, and the mud that stood in the way was swept away, and a new channel was created, and the arms and hands were lit up by the crystal water in the river network that represented the human body.
At the expense, the water level of the lake dropped again, and it fell so much that it was not even where it was before the light rain.
That's the answer to it?
"Go find more prey, continue to cooperate, don't ask more?" - it is expressing this meaning.
Jiang Chanji was helpless, he couldn't get rid of this guy for the time being, he really couldn't do anything now, but he could work hard to become stronger and find a way to deal with it.
He secretly made up his mind that sooner or later, there would be a fire to grill squid whiskers!
Put more chili peppers!
