Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2339 List (Twenty-One)

Oh? So Mr. Dickins had food poisoning back then?

One bombshell after another, but instead of being overwhelmed, Fu Qian's thoughts were racing.

The doctor traveled a long way, but was actually there to attend a lavish feast?
Ignoring the ingredients is an understandable approach.

"So your father was also a member of that organization?"

While empathizing, Fu Qian didn't forget to show his support, nodding slightly and asking.

"It seems so, and it was through his patient's introduction."

Kardon gave a cold laugh and responded as expected.

That makes sense. Mr. Deakins certainly wouldn't tell his son such a thing, but the deceased may have had some exchanges on this topic when he recruited Carton.

"So why did your father bring you along?"

However, there are still some unreasonable aspects. For example, if there are clearly foods that children cannot eat, why risk being discovered and go along with them?
"Actually, it's nothing. My mother passed away at that time, and he had nowhere to leave me... Of course, even after bringing me here, he repeatedly told me not to come out of the room at night."

Judging from what Katon described, it was just a very ordinary sense of helplessness in life.

"But you still came out."

Fu Qian gestured towards that window.

As the old man just mentioned, he was actually observing his father's unusual behavior from inside the car from this perspective.

"So why do you think I came out?"

Kardon didn't deny it, but he kept her in suspense.

After some internal struggle, I decided to go to Lucy's house.

This kind of question is really not difficult. Hormones-fueled minds are too easily drawn in, not to mention that Carton himself has admitted that he was very interested in accepting Lucy's invitation.

……

"Ha ha……"

In his soft laughter, one could almost feel the old man's nostalgia for his youthful days.

“After dinner, my father asked me to go to my room to sleep. I didn’t want to upset him, so I hesitated for a long time, but at the same time I couldn’t fall asleep.”

It must be said that he portrayed the mindset of young people very vividly; it is indeed difficult to fall asleep in that situation.

“I waited until I heard the car and knew he was back... and then waited a while until he was almost lying down before I finally slipped out of the room.”

The old man pointed, and sure enough, it was the same room where he had just been lying.

"Then I discovered Mr. Dickins' little secret... but honestly, the curtains wouldn't have been open like this back then, would they? How did you notice the anomaly?"
"It sounds like you hadn't acquired this extraordinary physique by that point in time."

Fu Qian's gaze fell on Katon's chest, and he directly raised a question about a small detail.

You can see that the bleeding from the wound has stopped, but when Carton mustered up the courage to sneak out back then, he probably didn't have this ability.

The influence of supernatural powers on people's hearts is enormous. From the description just now, Fu Qian has no doubt about Carton's respect for his father, Mr. Deakins.

But if he already possessed that power at that time, he probably wouldn't have been agonizing over such a thing until late at night.

If it weren't for this extraordinary ability, how would he have discovered that Mr. Dickins had "food poisoning"?

“That’s right. Not only were the curtains in my father’s room drawn tightly, but they were also locked from the inside, so you couldn’t see inside at all—up to when I got here.”

As it turns out, Katon instantly agreed to the excessive details of the pre-payment considerations, and then pointed to the ground, giving a surprising twist.

Is it so magical?
Fu Qian's gaze measured the dozens of steps from the hotel reception to the parking space. Katon's meaning was crystal clear: everything he had said earlier was true, and he had indeed only sneaked out quietly at first.

Just as he stepped outside, a stroke of luck struck him, and in an instant, he easily noticed the unusual situation in his father's room.

……

"It was a very special feeling, so much so that at first, I didn't even realize it was real... but soon I began to be immersed in it, feeling that unprecedented self, and everything beneath the surface of the surroundings."

Before I could even express my amazement, Mr. Kardon had already continued sharing.

It's clear that this part of the process wasn't considered sensitive content in his plan.

"So much so that once you were in the car, you lost all interest in going to the appointment?"

As someone who also experiences sudden enlightenment, Fu Qian is naturally very empathetic, and Lucy's long night of waiting suddenly becomes reasonable.

Many guys can become averse to women just by lifting weights; the sublime pleasure they experience is on a level far beyond what is known.

"No, it's not lost... You still don't understand that wonder."

"What I said to Lucy earlier was true. Until the very end, I was very willing to go to her and I was indeed capable of doing so, but I just didn't."

Surprisingly, Kardon denied the claim that he had lost interest.

However, upon closer examination, a more chilling twist becomes apparent.

“But I won’t tell you why… Anyway, that night, I didn’t go to Lucy’s. I just stayed here watching my father and feeling that wonderful irony.”

Katon's state was also distorted; on one hand, he was engrossed in reminiscing, but on the other hand, he had already casually opened the car door.

"I didn't even help him end that self-deceptive state; instead, I provided a little stimulation and, incidentally, confirmed a few things."

"Then I found out about the warehouse I had just been to, and when I got there I met that guy who was just as self-deceiving as him."

……

"Then I was invited to join, but I looked down on their boring games and killed him without thinking."

Thanks to Katon's generous sharing, Fu Qian said that the events of that year seemed to have been completely clarified.

Considering that the other party was clearly in a hurry, he directly told them what happened next.

It was clear that the old man held the organizational ideology of that group of "unjust people" in utter contempt.

The idea of ​​a cannibalistic organization sounds like some kind of evil ritual, which leads one to think of the pursuit of the extraordinary.

Although Carton was unwilling to show his abilities, a certain conclusion could still be drawn from his comments on his father and the "unjust man".

That's what that group of people were pursuing through that ritual, something that seemed similar to the changes that had happened to him.

The so-called "brilliant irony".

"In short, I think you guessed right. The desolation of this place is probably related to them... not for revenge, but because they discovered that someone actually succeeded. The ritual really works."

As he spoke, Katon got off the bus, and at that moment he even opened his arms, truly blaming himself for the poor business performance of those around him.

"But they don't know how to use it, so they try all sorts of self-deceptive things, which leads to some strange incidents that affect business here—do you want to come along?"

The reminiscence came to an abrupt end as Katon watched Fu Qian get out of the driver's seat.

"Together."

Fu Qian nodded and gestured for him to proceed.

First update, then revise.
