Chapter 130: Revisiting the Past
Love her one more time.
Zhang Su tasted the lip prints of Edith on his mouth, which tasted fishy and salty, but it was actually blood.
Her eyes changed in the shadow of the lamp, sometimes bewildered, sometimes inscrutable. But there is always a faint, lingering feeling.
Zhang Su tried to distinguish what that kind of emotion was......
"Grief".
"Why do you say 'again'?" Zhang Su was puzzled, could it be that Edith was also reborn in the torrent of time and space?
"I don't know, but I feel like we've been in love at some point." Edith said hesitantly.
yes, she's right. Zhang Su sighed.
For a long time in his previous life, Zhang Su had her in his heart.
When he wasn't in the Anxin Courtyard, Zhang Su would stay here, and the Yaole Palace was the place where he shared his body temperature with Edith.
No matter how he entered, even if he was scarred and cursed, Edith would greet him as always, kissing, stroking and whispering of mercy.
Then they cling to each other until the end of the night, and they want nothing more than each other.
But she is also good at manipulating Zhang Su and making everything like a transaction.
He takes on many difficult challenges, killing, working, scouting, and searching for treasure for her.
The sticky tool man life makes him tired, so Zhang Su would rather let go of his obsession and find his own path now.
"βat some point." Zhang Su didn't lie, "But we can act as if it didn't happen." β
"Do you regret it?" Edith asked.
"No regrets." Zhang Su admitted.
"I don't regret it either, so let's, once again...... All right? Edith took Zhang Su's hand and looked at each other.
As long as she loves her, she will make an eternal promise to share the mysteries of the world, to hold the authority of life and death, and from then on she will dance, spin, be rich and free, and cross the rulesβ
Edith's eyes were darker than ever, as if they were about to devour Zhang Su completely.
Zhang Su's will was put to the test.
- Fortunately, his heart is indestructible.
Before, Lianwu sewed a psychological rift on Zhang Su's words, so Edith couldn't control Zhang Su like she did in her previous life.
Zhang Su's expression changed from relaxed to calm and serious. Edith had no choice, or didn't want to stop the natural disaster, Zhang Su had to improve himself.
Seeing Zhang Su so decisive, Edith's expression was suspicious at first, and then softened.
ββ¦β¦ You become more determined. Edith whispered.
"And then?" Zhang Su asked.
"And then?" Edith glanced at Zhang Su deeply, "Don't you understand?" This room is for you. No matter what you choose, I have my thoughts. β
She wants.
Edith turned off the lights and invited Zhang Su to come and look for her.
Zhang Su is easy to find Edith, in fact, it is not difficult, as long as he follows the breath of blood.
"Edith......" Zhang Su boarded the place where she should go, and Edith allowed Zhang Su to take her for herself.
"βyou are only safe at this moment." Edith lowered her voice.
"Safe?"
"Other people can't see what you're doing, only a few dots. In this way we can hide and hide better. Edith smiled mysteriously.
The rest of the time, long and sweet.
"Love" is a free and changeable concept, and the clever thing is that these two words are pronounced upside down, which also makes sense, the meaning changes slightly, and it is more likable.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The next morning.
Zhang Su woke up to the sizzling of hot oil, Edith fried eggs in the small kitchen of her room, her pajamas folded at the head of the bed.
Edith used to live an unconventional life, arriving at the office at 9 a.m. and leaving work at 9 p.m. But Zhang Su knew that as long as he was in the Yaole Palace, Edith would stay here for a little longer.
A lot happened last night, and the residents downstairs got up overnight to fight the flood.
Zhang Su could feel her love. For a moment, Zhang Su felt that he had plundered Edith from her, and that she was willing to maintain and nourish her.
If Zhang Su is injured or in distress, Edith will feel more anxious than the others.
Now she is wearing a pale apron, and the sun is shining obliquely on her back, casting a soft light on her curves, which is particularly beautiful in Zhang Su's eyes.
He got up, and the smart electronic curtain wall was open, playing the daily news.
Article 1 [Hell Raider Legion Attacks New England, Defenders Fight Hard, Kill Lots of Enemies]
Classic rhetoric. Zhang Su is very familiar.
If there are too many dead people but they hold on, the media will report that "there are a lot of kills". If the line of defense is lost and the army retreats, the media will report a "smooth transfer of living forces." If the person dies and the line of defense is not held, the media will report that "a new demon breed has been discovered, and the knowledge of hell has been further improved...... Zhang Su was numb.
Then [Breakthrough in gene editing and prosthetic enhancement technology for witches]
Or the key to saving Komurohua...... Zhang Su looked at it, it was a research institute in Lin'an City, which was already applying for a patent and a grant from the Witch Council.
Article 3 [The 110th Human Defense Program Conference was held in Kishimo for 45 days]
ββ¦β¦ Aren't you going to the 110th Great Conference? Zhang Su asked.
"My opinion has been conveyed by Solo, but it feels like there will be no progress." Edith's voice came from the kitchen.
Solo is another senior overseer, who is mainly responsible for external affairs, and is actually placed by Junbao's side to act as a surveillance. If he was still in New Tokyo, it would be inconvenient for Zhang Su to come to Yaole Palace to meet Edith.
Zhang Su looked out.
Huge floor-to-ceiling windows connect seamlessly to create a panoramic view of new Tokyo, and the Palace is more worthy of the name "Sky View" than Sky View Hotel.
Edith's hand shook the pot slightly.
Breakfast was ready.
"Don't look at the news, we should make more space for each other. Come and see the movie. Edith walked over to the scarlet sheets and invited Zhang Su to come to her so she could feed him breakfast.
There are breads, omelettes, sausages and bacon, and drones bring in high-quality black coffee from the side.
Zhang Su sat beside her, very satisfied, and felt incomparably similar to his previous life.
In his previous life, Edith gave him thirteen tasks and thirteen tests, and he ran for Edith, and the rewards for each test were strangely rich, and Edith also greatly encouraged him to help him survive and grow.
When he was depressed, numb, and lost, he would sit with Edith as he was now.
"It's really not the first time we've met like this, I'm even more sure, no wonder I always feel that there is something missing in this life, and now there is no shortage." Edith muttered.
"I don't feel like that, either." Zhang Su said, "But the previous memory may have happened in a dream, don't take it too seriously." β
"Okay, I'm not serious." Edith leaned into Zhang Su's arms.
At the end of the room, the huge projection screen was very large, and Zhang Su was lying on Edith's pillow, on which there was still the smell of perfume, blood and sweat.
She chose a light-hearted comedy.
After the Demon descended, for a while these pieces were classified as forbidden catalogs, but Edith had a privileged collection of them.
Several of the shots were so comical that Edith laughed out loud and Zhang Su smiled too.
As he was dragged into the occasion by Edith, he was gradually able to adapt to the feeling of being uninhibited.
Zhang Su really felt that he had returned to a long time ago, and that was a very long time ago......
- Before the crossing.
Living on that demon-free earth is free of stress, natural disasters, peace of mind, and no head-wrenching things.
The film frees Zhang Su from stress, and he lets his guard down to experience this simple emotion.
When the movie is put to the next hilarious node, Edith laughs while choking Zhang Su's arm. So he laughed too, without any pretense.
There are no titles, no titles, no halos, no responsibilities.
His nostrils were filled with the smell of blood from Edith, both sinful and dangerous. But in his previous life, he naturally followed this aura. Because Edith knew what Zhang Su wanted.
"So...... And that's the end of it. Edith looked at the credits at the end of the movie.
She had something to say, and she didn't want Zhang Su to leave like this.
"This is just the beginning. Now everything can be new, and new encounters will overwrite those false memories. Zhang Su said.
"Well, then, you help me solve the trouble, and you must have something to help me with." Edith said.
Zhang Su thought about the demolition of the wall of Dongzhou, as well as the budget money, and the recovery of the stolen money from the supplier.
These jobs can get him billions of yen at most, enough for him to show his strength.
With Edith's help, these things will be solved.
"About the ...... of funding," Zhang Su said his thoughts.
They drank tea and negotiated, and Edith had been listening to what Zhang Su said very attentively, leaving no details behind.
ββ¦β¦ I'll help you, this money is handled by Kazama, commonly known as 'Dongzhou Project Compensation Recovery'......" Edith said slowly, "I won't let you face any resistance in these matters." β
"Thank you." Zhang Su breathed a sigh of relief. Edith was like holding a key that went straight to his heart, always making him comfortable.
ββ¦β¦ So, your business is settled? Edith asked.
"Solved." Zhang Su admitted.
"I have my business too, you know the new Sky Tree, right?" Edith asked.
"Of course." Zhang Su understood.
"The place is now entirely a commercial attraction, run by a wealthy businessman named Hirashima Yoritada...... And he is now under threat. Edith said.
"I've heard that Hirashima Yoritada is a rich man, who dares to threaten him?" Zhang Su pondered.
"People from the Fujikawa group." Edith's pupils shrank.
ββ¦β¦ Fujikawa gumi, I'm also going to take the kids there. Zhang Su went to get dressed.
"It's best not to go, the high-level ninja of the Fujikawa group has infiltrated the New Sky Tower, using illegal electronic technology, which is extremely deadly, and Lai Zhong hid in his room, not daring to leave a step." Edith took a sip of her coffee.
Ninjas of the Fujikawa group. Zhang Su imagined the scene, the assassin mixed in the shadows, waiting for the moment when the blood was splattered on the spot.
"Now it's Saburo Fujikawa who is in charge of the family affairs." Zhang Su said. Saburo is Chiyo Fujikawa's uncle.
"Chiyo Fujikawa disappeared after leaving your prison. Today, under Saburo, the Fujikawa gumi is adept at using blackmail and threats to bring others to their knees. Edith lifted her eyes.
"What does Saburo want?" Zhang Su asked.
"Hirashima Yoritada has a lot of shops and properties under his name, but he is weak, and if he is leveraged, it will be easier for the Fujikawa gumi to convince others. Hirashima Yoritada was very worried that if Fujikawa's request was not met, someone would die, and this person thought very highly of himself and did not want to die, preferring to ask us for help. Edith said.
Zhang Su silently digested this information. This must be handled with great care, as it can lead to disaster.
"What about the people from the Metropolitan Police Department?" Zhang Su asked.
Edith sat in the armchair, folded one leg over the other, and asked Zhang Su to help her put on her stockings.
