The clock ticked and ticked, and on a quiet night, the room was filled with cigar smoke, and the ashtray of bone china was lightly knocked out, and there were a few gray marks on the white inside.

The fingers holding the cigar are slender, and the skin is somewhat loose and pale.

On the middle finger is a large opal ring with a delicate bottom, and the soft light that penetrates through the gap in the curtain makes this chrysoberyl show a narrow and bright reflection in the dark, cold beauty.

The man's face was hidden in the darkness of the night, his coat hung on the coat rack in the room, wearing only a silk gray shirt, one hand propped up on the arm of the sofa, and the red glow of the cigar loomed.

He brought the cigar to his lips as the door slammed on it.

"Come in." Italian.

The man's voice was hoarse and magnetic, like a demon's demagogic whisper, and each syllable was very beautiful, and it could be heard from the voice that he was no longer young, and he did not reduce his charm, but instead gave his voice an indescribable layer of confused timbre, which made people can't help but think about the true meaning of his words.

The door was pushed open, as if light had flowed into this dark corner.

The person who came in did not even dare to raise his head, and bent down tremblingly and said: "Those strange book wearers are all dead, we have found a man who has lost his memory, he claims not to know everything that happened after last November, Mr. Morenza, do you need to talk to him personally?" ”

The man waved his hand, but he didn't speak.

A black bodyguard in a suit standing in the doorway, wearing sunglasses, turned his head sideways, pressed the headset and listened to a few words. Then the bodyguard walked into the room and whispered, "The person has woken up." ”

The cigar was slammed into the ashtray and the flame was extinguished.

The man opened the drawer in front of the table and pulled out a black semi-automatic hand from inside. gun

The chamber was already loaded, and the slender fingers shifted the safety gear to the S, and then tucked it into the holster at his waist.

Mr. Morenza's nephew, who had been brought home from the hospital two weeks earlier, was only one floor away from the smoking room. Morenza abruptly checked his hand. The gun, and carrying it with him in the safety of his residence, coupled with the change in Wolfe's expression after hearing the news, made the people waiting at the door tremble.

- Could it be that the godfather of the East Coast is planning to kill his nephew?

Federico. Morensa is an anomaly, rescued from the Mexican border by anomalies loyal to Wolfe, which in turn involves the secret hunt of a man named "Johnson." Brown", however, is now missing, and Federico had suddenly "deteriorated" ten days earlier and was on the verge of death, coinciding with the sudden death of the bookmaker. Morensa forbade everyone to talk about it, and everyone still had their own speculations.

The existence of the book wearers, their origins, and their fate are not a secret here. Combined with the relevant situation, everyone began to suspect that the king of the American music scene was also "occupied" by someone, this is a big deal!

"Mr. Morenza, please calm down!" Outside Federico's room, the personal doctor of the Morensa family pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"The patient has just woken up and it is easy to identify ......"

Wolfe was not in the mood to listen to him and motioned for the bodyguard to push the door open.

Federico lay on the bed, and he found that he had restraints on his wrists and legs, which were usually used to prevent the patient from aggravating the injury by moving indiscriminately. Of course, mental hospitals were also used a lot, and Federico couldn't remember what had happened to him for a while, how he could have used these things.

The nurse remained silent and refused to speak to him, and Federico had a vague sense of what was happening. This is his uncle's mansion, the room is very familiar, and the medical staff have no faces......

Wolf appeared in front of the door, and Federico breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it wasn't his uncle who had an accident, was put in prison, and was assassinated by the enemy, no matter how big the trouble was, there was a limit.

"My dear child, how are you feeling today?" Wolfe was a personable Italian man, with a well-tailored suit and well-combed chestnut hair, and he bowed his head to kiss Federico's forehead, with a soft movement, no different from an elder.

Federico smelled the faint aroma of Wolfe's high-end cigar, and his tense nerves slowly relaxed.

“…… Not so good, to be honest. Federico tugged at his arm and gestured to the restraint belts that were in the way.

"Do you still have any memories of what happened twelve days ago?"

Wolf sat down in front of the bed, he spoke in a gentle manner, but looking at his face and listening to his voice, people's minds were always involuntarily carried away.

Even if there are those who have woken up, after being grasped by Wolf's hand, they will see the scars exposed under the cuffs of their shirts, and there are regular calluses on their fingers, which are difficult to break free when they are caught, especially under Wolf's gaze, even their breathing will become short, and people with weak hearts will break out in a cold sweat on the spot and tremble.

Federico was not afraid, and his instincts told him that the problem was in this question.

His injuries were not serious, and he was escorted back to the United States by Wolfe's subordinates to receive better treatment and examination, and the sequelae of forced drug rehabilitation were the most concerning, Federico was having a headache how to explain Johnson's youth to his uncle, but before he could say a word, he suddenly-

Federico's face turned pale

The intense headache, as if the soul was about to be withdrawn from the body, was so painful that I fainted, and when I woke up, I selectively forgot about the injury, and I didn't remember it until I carefully cleared my memory.

"I've been attacked?" Federico asked uncertainly.

Wolf watched his every move.

"Almost."

"Who?" Federico didn't remember that there was a category of psychic in the original book, but both the Fire Demon and the Devourer could run to the United States with the help of mushrooms, and Federik didn't dare to fully believe the original.

"The danger is over."

To the surprise of the doctor and bodyguards, Wolf had the intention of asking Federico to cover up the truth.

"No, it's serious. Aliens can also attack ordinary people in the real world, this time it's me, next time it may be my uncle, ordinary people can't compete with aliens. ”

Federico watched as Wolf untied him, his tone anxious.

"There are no more adepts." Wolf stood up and casually put his hand on his waist.

Everyone followed for a moment to breathe, lest Wolf take out his hand for the next move. guns, simply and neatly open the insurance, and end a life in three seconds.

They know that the Book-Wearers have caused anomalies in some people, that Book-Wearers have taken over the bodies of some people, that the bodies of people have been killed violently by borrowed people, and that the living have lost a memory. Federico showed no signs of amnesia, but the symptoms he had at the same time as those who wore books, in fact, Federico was such a superstar, suddenly a teenager without a guardian, fled to the Mexican border, and was forced to become addicted to drugs, no matter how you think about it, it is weird.

The man in front of him is not Federico. Morenza, they all have their own opinions.

However,

The real Federico. Morenza, the child who died at the age of seven, is not the same as the "Federico" they think in their hearts, this confused account, only Wolf knows.

Wolf had mixed feelings, and before pushing open the door, he thought about what he would do if he was dealing with a seven-year-old Federik with an adult body and an IQ memory.

-- That was his real nephew, his real relative, although he had never met that child a few times, let alone a relationship, and the truth could not be denied.

When Wolf heard the news of the violent deaths of the book-wearers, he was only happy for a minute that Federico had survived. Soon fell into greater doubts.

Isn't Federico with those people?

Or is "Federico" already gone, and a new one takes over his nephew's body?

Until Federico wakes up, until this door opens, everything is unknown.

At this moment, Wolf, who was standing in front of the bed, already had an answer, and no one could disguise "Federico" before his eyes from being discovered by him.

His nephew, the seven-year-old child, was really dead...... Even when he held the corpse and confirmed that the child had stopped breathing, under the influence of the world's miraculous events, Wolf still couldn't control his imagination

There was no such possibility, and no worse was found, Federico was still "Federico", Wolf's expression remained the same, but his feelings were very complicated.

He looked at Federico, imagining what the child would look like when he grew up, and felt that it was not Federico's appearance at all, different people, different circumstances, even if it was the same body, the final temperament would be very different.

Wolf knew a lot about Federico, not that Federico said it, but that he guessed it.

- Before he became his nephew, this man was a singer who aspired to the Grammy Award, was familiar with the music scene, knew nothing about high society, paid attention to physical examinations, was very good at taking care of others, and knew very well what kind of people could receive what kind of relief, these characteristics are summed up in the previous life of Federico is not a secret to Wolfe.

"Recuperate, don't think too much, the abandoned world is gone." Wolf turned to leave the room.

Federico was shocked.

The timeline of the original book is less than a tenth of the way, and this is gone?

He subconsciously thought of Johnson, and found that it was okay to be a teenager no longer the secret weapon of the American Powers Agency, and he didn't need to be trained for special training, nor did he have to be involved in so many battles and political interests.

"No, Johnson was taken away by the mushroom!"

“……”

Wolfe's face turned from sunny to gloomy, he didn't have the slightest affection for the troublesome imp, and even shot Johnson with one shot. Federico almost lost his life because of Johnson, even if he didn't die, how comfortable is it to get a strong drug addiction?

The attribute of protecting the short and being unreasonable is probably a common problem of the godfathers of the underworld.

"That little ghost is in China, and the government got the news, and they applied to China for repatriation." Wolf said with a gloomy face, "China will not agree to the abandoned world until it disappears, and it is difficult to say now." ”

A person who loses an ability is not worth even a dollar.

All countries are stepping up construction efforts, and aircraft fuel is also an important material, not to mention flying such a long flight over the Pacific Ocean, if China refuses to send planes, and the United States refuses to, then it is not a matter of repatriation, Johnson can only continue to stay in China.

Thinking of this, Federico sighed.

"Uncle, there's something we need to talk about."

As for the children of the supernatural, there is a good chance that they will regain the supernatural ability after more than a decade.

No one cares about the underage protagonist for the time being, but this possibility cannot be denied, and Federico feels that whether it is for Johnson or his uncle's power, the problem is serious.

Wolf told everyone to leave the room, leaving only the two of them.

After listening to Federico's words, the godfather rubbed the opal ring on his finger and asked without emotion, "So, it's better to get that little ghost back?" ”

Federico nodded.

Wolf gave him a deep look, dropped a word and turned to go out.

"I'll figure it out."
