Of course, it's also possible that it was disposed of secretly.

Human rights agencies have never been charitable organizations.

There is no possibility of showing mercy to traitors.

"That's it."

Joseph clutched his chest, seemingly relieved.

As long as it's not a contract from a story, it's fine.

Making a pact with a demon and then having your soul taken away, or something like that.

It feels terrible to think about it.

Speaking of which, it seems there's also a Stand user in Egypt whose Stand ability is related to the soul?

Although several days have passed, Joseph still hasn't been able to fully process the memories of his old age.

Many things are just remembered, but not clearly understood.

"You really have a big heart."

Seeing Joseph clearly lost in thought, Rojin couldn't help but sigh.

One moment they're feeling down, the next they're daydreaming.

That guy's nerves are really thick.

"Haha, there's nothing we can do about it, the signature has already been made."

Joseph laughed heartily.

Based on his observations and understanding, the current research institute is indeed as they described themselves.

Protect humanity, whether they like it or not.

While such behavior may be protested in the name of human rights, who is Joseph?

A real estate tycoon from the Bald Eagle!

To put it bluntly, they are major capitalists in the United States.

You talk to him about human rights?

"Speaking of which, why is that contract called the Devil's Contract? Did you get it from the devil?"

Joseph suddenly became interested in the contract.

If this were in the original world, he would only see it as a substitute.

But considering the world at large, Joseph couldn't help but doubt the origin of this contract.

"I don't know, and I haven't asked about it."

This question touches on Luo Zhen's area of ​​knowledge.

He genuinely didn't know the origin of the contract.

In his view, it was simply something that the research institute members had taken in while on missions outside.

"That's it."

Scratching his head, Joseph wasn't too disappointed.

Since they've been incorporated into the organization, we'll probably see many more of these containment objects in the future.

"Now that you've joined the organization, we'll be colleagues from now on."

Luo Zhen had also thought of this, so he straightened his clothes slightly and said to Joseph:

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Luo Zhen."

"Currently, I am a Class B investigator at the Anomaly Research Institute under the Human Rights Protection Agency."

Since Joseph was not Japanese, Rozen did not add that sentence to his self-introduction.

"Oh, my name is Joseph Joestar, just call me JOJO."

"Currently, I am an E-level investigator at the research institute."

Joseph, who was leaning against the wall, straightened up and introduced himself to Rozen as well.

When he said 'Jostar,' Rojin could clearly feel the other person's pride.

Joseph has always been proud of the surname he inherited from his grandfather.

"By the way, where is the research institute's cafeteria? What good food do they have there?"

This serious atmosphere didn't last more than a few seconds before Joseph broke it.

He was really looking forward to the world's delicious food.

"Don't worry, the chefs here are all world-class."

"Oh! That's something to look forward to!"

Chapter 21 Starry

In the cafeteria of the Chiba Research Institute branch, Joseph and Rosei were enjoying their meal.

"This Nero noodles are actually quite delicious."

Joseph stirred the black noodles in his dish with his fork.

After swirling the noodles around your fork a few times, put them in your mouth.

He then picked up the tequila beside him and took a sip.

Mmm, that familiar taste.

"Aren't you going to drink?"

"No, I'm still a student."

Luo Zhen waved his hand, declining Joseph's offer.

He has never been a good drinker.

I don't even drink too much beer.

"Oh right, I remember that minors aren't allowed to drink alcohol here in Japan."

With a slap to the palm, Joseph said as if suddenly realizing something.

Although I hate Japan, it is, after all, the place where my daughter married.

So Joseph did do some research.

Incidentally, Joseph's dislike of Japan stems from his daughter marrying a Japanese man.

"But aren't the members of your research institute usually busy?"

Joseph, his lips smeared with black squid ink, asked casually.

In his view, going to school is a very troublesome thing.

They were controlled by the teachers at school and had little freedom to go anywhere.

Although he thinks going to school is important in the future, he still finds it troublesome now.

"Generally speaking, I'm quite busy, but I'm a special case."

Luo Zhen roughly understood what Joseph meant.

Since you have to go to school, your free time will be relatively limited.

There is a high chance of encountering conflicts between school hours and research tasks.

"Research institutes generally do not choose to send high school or junior high school students to carry out missions, and even those who join research institutes are few and far between."

"I'm still attending school to put some people at ease."

"I won't be going to school much after a while."

If he wasn't required to go, Luo Zhen wasn't particularly keen on going to school.

The research institute is full of talented people; it's much more interesting than school.

We can just ask the site manager for help then.

"You're really being willful."

"I don't think you have the right to talk to me like that. I'm a good student."

If Luo Zhen is indeed a bad student who skips classes, then Joseph is basically no longer associated with the word "student."

Despite Alina's guidance, Joseph's grades were very good, especially in history.

But this guy is a complete American thug template.

go to school?

nonexistent.

They're either skipping class or on their way to skip class.

In this respect, the two may share some common views.

"Alright, then this good student should go back and do his homework."

"Nighttime is the adults' domain."

Joseph said sarcastically.

Rolling his eyes, Luo Zhen didn't say anything, but silently sped up his eating.

Good student Luo Zhen felt he should remain silent.

"Speaking of which, why did you join this humanitarian protection agency?"

Joseph downed the wine in his glass in one gulp and looked at Rozen with curiosity.

If he had no choice but to join, then what about Luo Zhen?

Could it be that he was too excited after gaining the power, which led to his discovery during the experiment?

So they were forced to join?

That's understandable, after all, they're young people.

He had seen many Stand users who used their Stand abilities for personal gain.

"It might be a little different from what you think."

Recalling what it was like back then, Luo Zhen explained:

"After I gained the power, I didn't openly reveal it; I only tried it when I was alone."

"I wouldn't have transformed if I hadn't encountered a dangerous guy."

Ultimately, only a minority of people are able to immediately develop the awareness to protect others after gaining power.

When Luo Zhen got the transformation device, his first reaction wasn't that he wanted to save the world.

Instead, I need to find a way to hide and avoid being discovered.

He dared not gamble that the surrounding cameras were broken every time he transformed.

Transforming in the street without being detected is something only the protagonist could do.

And there's also a very real issue: in the shadows, you could be the hero who saves the world.

All criminals are afraid of you.

But openly, you still have to worry about your rent.

They might even miss important exams and fail to get into university because of their efforts to fight crime.

In the past, superheroes only needed to think about fighting criminals.

Modern superheroes have to consider many things.

The contradiction between reality and ideals is becoming increasingly acute.

Although some people say they can earn some extra money while fighting crime.
