Chapter 217 Su Yue’s Invitation

Xia Shou looked at his rough skin and knew that aging had returned to him.

After the villager died once, the aging curse returned.

Idrisu's treatment must have a living body to bear the pain. That death brought the disease back, and now Xia Shou can no longer use Idrisu to treat himself casually. Although if he confesses, the Control Bureau will definitely arrange enough death row prisoners to bear the disease for him, but that means he has to explain the black shadow to the Control Bureau.

The risks brought to him by the exposure of Black Shadow far outweigh the benefits he would gain from the Control Bureau.

However, this problem is not difficult to solve. In today's society, the power of money is huge, and a lot of things can be done with money. He can use the money to hire an organization to find people who are willing to bear the consequences of aging in exchange for huge sums of money.

Su Weiyu can help him get the money.

Of course, the best option would be to find a better solution among the banned items of the Control Bureau.

In addition, there is No. 58 who was sealed by him.

Number 58 concerned him a lot, and Xia Shou had been wondering about the other party's true identity.

It is obvious that the Control Bureau does not know the other party's true past.

He used a black shadow to seal No. 58 in the door with the circus magic poster on it.

The way the text names this door is as simple and crude as Idrisu.

【Door: No. 58】

[Introduction: No. 58 likes to lie. Lies flow in his body like blood. However, he doesn't even have real blood, just as he can't tell real lies.]

[Use: No. 58 knows what others want to hear and is proficient in how to gain their trust.

The lies that come out of his mouth have a natural persuasiveness if there is no obvious evidence to prove that they are false.

No. 58 has always longed to become a real "human". You can lend him your body for a period of time in exchange for him lying for you or seeing through lies for you. 】

Although Xia Shou didn't know No. 58's past, he seemed to have roughly guessed No. 58's true identity.

When No. 58 was reminiscing about the past with Alice, he mentioned a girl named Lilia.

He said that Lilia often fiddled with his wooden arm and would hold him before going to bed, and that Lilia also asked Alice for beautiful red paint to paint his lips and black paint to paint his eyes.

Wooden arm...

From this sentence, it seems that the body material of No. 58, the android, was previously made of wood, and that Lilia behaves like a younger girl who still likes to play with dolls.

Young girls like to sleep with their favorite dolls in their arms and dress up their dolls, so No. 58 was probably the doll's position in that environment at that time.

In addition, the door that sealed him had a circus, a donkey jumping through fire hoops, and a dancing donkey on it, which made it difficult for Xia Shou not to think of the fairy tale.

The protagonist in that fairy tale also likes to lie, longs to become a human, and has a grandfather who once turned into a donkey and performed in a circus.

No. 58, probably Pinocchio.

"Pinocchio and Merlin's House..." Xia Shou silently pondered the relationship between the two in his heart.

It feels very strange that characters from fairy tales appear in reality.

But if we think from the perspective of the extraordinary world, all this does not seem strange.

After all, no one has ever said that The Adventures of Pinocchio written by Carlo Collodi must be a fairy tale. Perhaps it was originally a documentary story, but it became a children's fairy tale in the process of being passed on by word of mouth among ordinary people.

After solving a puzzle, Xia Shou glanced at the deep-sea ruler in his left eye. The current depth was 1540 meters, which was only a few meters deeper than a few days ago.

Now, Xia Shou no longer cared about the depth of his sinking. He even wanted to sink faster and escape from the sea of ​​endless bleeding and enter the next sea area to get rid of the influence of the delusion.

But he couldn't speed up his sinking. Although he could increase his load in the Origin Sea by using the Black Shadow to devour corpses and grab skills, sinking too fast would aggravate the symptoms of delusion, and by then it might not just be hallucinations.

The best solution at the moment is to slowly sink at the current stable speed, try not to let it float up, and don't let it sink too fast. At least now with Alice's reminder, the impact of delirium on life is not too great.

However, tickets are also a problem. According to the Death Note, staying in the sea area controlled by the gods requires tickets in exchange for stay time.

In the sea of ​​endless blood, you need to contribute to the Blood God what he desires, but you don’t know where to get the tickets.

Little Red Riding Hood said that someone in the Paradise Club possessed the Blood God's relic, and they had made an appointment to meet on the weekend night, which happens to be tomorrow night. Maybe we could get something out of it if we went to talk about it.

Xia Shou walked around the museum as he thought, going over each and every troublesome matter in his mind.

The curse of aging, the ticket to the sea of ​​blood, the epic fragment owed to Little Red Riding Hood, the delusion...

He felt like a gambler who had borrowed money from a loan shark, constantly using the chips borrowed from the loan shark to win money at the gambling table. Although he kept winning, the money he won was not enough to pay the interest, so he had to borrow new money from the loan shark.

The most annoying thing is that it wasn't him who wanted to jump into the gambling table of this mysterious world, but the loan shark that damn notebook borrowed for him! And the interest rate was super high!
"By the way, I have to ask that damn notebook what happened to the owner of Merlin's House in the end." Xia Shou said angrily.

“You are here!”

Suddenly, a bright and clear voice came from the front, and then a beautiful, slim and graceful girl walked quickly in front of him.

She was wearing a very Japanese-style JK uniform, just like an actor who had just come out of the set. She was very conspicuous walking in the crowd and was a beauty with a 100% turning head rate.

Xia Shou raised his head and saw that the other party was stunned for a moment.

Compared to her sister, Su Yue is petite and belongs to the pure type that all boys dream of in school. She has a well-behaved look in her eyes, but her expression is very alert and intelligent, perfectly blending the contradictory feelings of being docile, cunning and strong. Judging from her temperament, she is the type of virtuous girl who is very well-behaved and obedient to her lover and parents, but can stand on her own in external affairs and is very capable.

Su Yue smiled slightly, stretched out her hand and said, "Nice to meet you. My name is Su Yue, and you are Mr. Xia, right?"

Xia Shou nodded and shook hands with the other party.

Both of them tacitly regarded this meeting as their first encounter.

"Mom and Dad have always wanted to thank you in person." Su Yue smiled and said softly, "I have always wanted to thank you in person, but I heard that you were going to carry out a very dangerous mission. Mom and Dad and I are very worried."

"Forehead……"

Xia Shou didn't know how to communicate with this sister for a moment. This was actually the first time they met.

If Su Weiyu could see it, she could talk about her sister as a way to break the ice.

But the problem is that Su Weiyu is a completely invisible person at home, and Xia Shou can't say: "Yes, this mission is indeed very dangerous, but fortunately, your sister is here, and it finally ended safely. Let's have dinner together when we are free."

Su Yue was unable to receive any information about Su Weiyu, and she always felt something strange when she invited her to dinner together.

"It's okay. That's what an employee of the Control Bureau should do." Xia Shou finally chose a very official answer.

Although he really wanted to have a good relationship with Su Yue so that he could act as a messenger between Su Weiyu's parents and sister in the future, it was too abrupt to directly close the distance. It was a sign of low emotional intelligence.

"No, that's not the case. Please come to my house for dinner! Mom and Dad have repeatedly told me to come. When they see you, they must invite you to our house... Of course, it's convenient for you."

Su Yue stretched out her other hand and shook Xia Shou's right hand vigorously with both hands.

She looked sincerely into Xia Shou's eyes and her polite words were irresistible.

Xia Shou thought about it for a moment, then nodded and said with a smile: "Then I will respectfully obey your command."

It’s just right, Xia Shou thought, to go to Wei Yu’s house for dinner together.
