I, the little cat, am a substitute for others who are starving and thin

"You can't do such pranks in such cold weather, and girls shouldn't do such things, okay?"

Yimi rubbed his forehead and pointed at her: "Behind you, there are sprouts."

"What's wrong Holly?"

Hearing his daughter's scream, Joseph ran over immediately and even pushed Jotaro out when he stood up.

"Nothing, just saw a spider."

Holly closed one eye and raised her index finger to Yimi, making a 'hush' gesture, meaning not to tell anyone about her prank.

She didn't realize what was happening.

Yimi tugged at Joseph's clothes and pointed at Holly: "There's a sprout on her back."

"what?"

Joseph was stunned for a moment, then looked at his daughter, and could vaguely detect a hint of trance and disordered breathing.

Joseph's back was instantly wet with cold sweat.

He was worried about one problem when he came here. In order to find helpers to deal with Dio during this period of time, he also saw many stand users, some of which had abilities that were useless or even harmful to the host itself.

After all, a Stand is a manifestation of the spirit. Those who can awaken it have a mental power that is more or less different from that of ordinary people. However, the awakening of the Stand of their Joestar family... at least the Stands of their current three generations are not innate, but awakened under the resonance of Dio's blood.

What would happen if one of the people in this resonance lacked mental strength and was forced to awaken a Stand? He didn't even dare to think about it.

"Holly, turn around first."

"What's wrong, Dad?"

"do not speak."

Joseph lifted her clothes seriously, and sure enough, he saw something invisible and intangible, like a vine or a fern, with several unopened flower buds growing on it.

“Sh…”

I subconsciously wanted to swear, but stopped myself.

"What's the matter, old man?"

Jotaro followed in, also frowning, "What's going on."

"My worst fear has finally come true."

Joseph looked at his daughter. Even though she was trying hard to suppress her discomfort, she still looked a little tired. How could she endure such torture?

He didn't tell the story in front of his daughter, but clenched his fist and gave Jotaro a look.

"Is this uncomfortable?"

Yimi asked Holly.

"Uh...if I'm uncomfortable, I do feel a little bit, but I should be fine after some rest."

Holly tried to turn her head to look behind her, but of course she couldn't see from that angle.

"Well……"

Yimi reached out and touched her.

Help her get rid of this misfortune.

"now what?"

"Strange, I suddenly feel much better."

……

Egypt--

"Well!"

Dio looked behind him in confusion and annoyance.

"How is this going?"

Chapter 9 There is a traitor!

"Holly, are you really not feeling unwell?"

"No, Dad. And you have to call me 'Holy Son' here, or I will ignore you."

Because the pronunciations of the two are similar here.

"Nonsense! Holly is the name I gave you. What the hell is 'Holy Son'?"

After shouting this, Joseph felt the hairs on his back stand up for some unknown reason, but when he turned around, he could only see Yimi studying the kendama.

"Anyway, go and rest for a while. It's Jotaro who's making you feel uncomfortable because you've overworked yourself."

Joseph pushed Holly into the inner room.

Jotaro made a nasal sound but didn't say anything.

After comforting his daughter to lie down, Joseph walked back and sat on the uncomfortable cushion, scratching Yimi's head in annoyance.

"The plants behind it are still there, with no signs of spreading further, but at least they don't seem to be feeling any pain."

The Love Train transfers the so-called "misfortune", throwing away the mental wear and tear that Holly should have borne, but the awakening of the stand itself is an evolution rather than a misfortune.

In fact, if left alone like this, there will be no further development. Holly's mental strength is not enough to truly awaken the stand, and she is already 45 years old and has no chance of further growth.

The only impact is probably that you will have to carry a bunch of plants on your back that have no weight or touch and can only be seen by your Stand user.

But Joseph and the others didn't think so. How could this thing be harmless if it still existed? Although Yimi said she used a substitute to divert the "misfortune", how could this child, who didn't even know what heaven was, be reassured based on her one-sided story?

"Speaking of which, Jotaro, I haven't shown you my abilities yet, right? Watch this!"

Joseph took out a Japanese camera and split it open with his palm.

As before, a photo was printed out.

"This is my ability, Telekinesis. For some reason, if I use it aimlessly, only Dio's image will appear."

The picture shows Dio, shirtless and in a strange pose, with a star-shaped mark on the back of his neck, which represents the fact that he occupies the body of Joseph's grandfather.

In addition to this, some strange marks could be seen behind him. Although they were not obvious, their outlines looked like the vegetation growing behind Holly.

"?"

"I don't understand the Joestar feud, but killing this guy will solve it, right?"

Jotaro narrowed his eyes and summoned a stand with purple skin and dressed like a fighter. He snatched the pencil that Yimi had picked up from somewhere and started writing on the notebook.

Star Platinum, ability print (not).

In a corner that no one has noticed, in a position that is almost impossible to be captured clearly by a camera, there is a bug that is only found in Egypt, and this is what he wants to draw.

As he searched for Dio's location, Dio looked into the distance with a vague sense of awareness.

"Joseph Joestar, seems to be Jonathan's descendant. This guy was looking at me just now."

He casually grabbed a piece of bread and put it to his mouth, using the taste of blood to ease the discomfort in his body.

"Master Dio, this is... a sign that your Stand awakening has failed! This shouldn't be happening. Master Dio already has an invincible Stand. Even if it hasn't awakened yet, this shouldn't be happening to you!"

At the bottom of the stairs, an old woman with a deformed hand found out the cause of his illness.

"Is it the Joestar blood that's cursing me, or is it you who's tricked me, Jonathan?"

Dio walked down slowly and looked out the window.

Because of the time difference, the climate here is dim and dark.

"Well, I wanted to go visit my friends again."

This so-called curse is because the Joestar bloodline is still alive. In order to stop the adverse reactions affecting him at this moment, he wants to cut off the bloodline of the contemporary Joestar family!

airport.

"What did you say, flight blockade?"

"Yes, Mr. Joestar. It's mainly because not long ago, a flight was found to have an illegal item in the subsequent security check records. It looked like a cat, but the possibility of another invasive feline species hasn't been ruled out. Unfortunately, during the investigation, a small fire broke out due to equipment disrepair, resulting in the loss of evidence..."

This is all due to my EX's luck.

As Dio approached, they gathered together and prepared to beat him up. Kakyoin also joined in, for the simple reason that the fear that guy had instilled in him was lingering, and he couldn't bear the fact that he had almost hurt a child.

"Well, then, thank you for your hard work."

Joseph turned his eyes to the side and reached out to pull down Yimi's cotton hat to prevent any secrets from being revealed.

As for why they brought Imi along, it was because she had also been assassinated. Although this trip was bound to be dangerous, Dio's prioritization of capturing Imi in response to Kakyoin's order was also hard to ignore. In other words, the child was already in a dangerous situation, and staying with them would actually be safer.

"What should we do next, Mr. Joestar?"

Joseph turned around and called the Speedwagen Group: "Although we can use some privileges to charter a plane, it would be like exposing ourselves directly to Dio."

"I can, call me hungry bun."

Yimi raised her little hand and waved, hoping to attract the attention of the adults. Someone sent someone to beat the cat, and the cat would kill him too.

Abdel crossed his arms and thought, "If I want to find another way to get around here, is the boat the only option?"

"Actually, under normal circumstances, if the border is blocked, we can't take the ship, but the Speedwagen Group can borrow a private ship here. Anyway, let's wait here for their people to pick us up..."

Joseph led them to the bus stop.

"Well, do you have any ideas?"

No one listened to the opinion of a little girl who was less than ten years old. Only Kakyoin squatted down and asked her gently.

"It's like a teleporting hungry bun. It can open its mouth and eat us, then open its mouth again and we'll be here."

Yimi gestured with her little hands, trying to express her meaning as clearly as possible.

But Emo has basically ignored her recently.

System: "Greedy demons will seek what they need, but they can also be attracted by treasures. The host can use treasures to attract them back. It is recommended to spend energy to draw."

Kakyoin nodded his chin and took the kendama from Yimi's little hand: "Let me teach you how to play this. I'm quite confident in playing this."

He also regarded Yimi's words as a child's fantasy.

Yimi was holding onto the bus stop sign next to him in a depressed mood. He didn't want to waste his energy. He had clearly told the adults that everything was fine, but no one believed what the child said.

"Take the move!"

"who?"

Kakyoin hugged her away.

"Chong-"

Then, the bus stop sign that Yimi was holding on to was suddenly cut off.

"Oh my, it was dodged."

A silver-haired man with a hairstyle like a pillar walked over.

They were supposed to ambush Joseph and his men on the other side of the sea, but Dio ordered them to come all the way to capture Imi's man alive.

"You yourself shouted first, so it would be strange if you couldn't dodge it, right?"

Kakyoin looked at the person who came in speechlessly.

"Ah, ah, you actually attacked the child first?"

Jotaro pinched the hat and turned it, then put one hand on Yimi's head and pushed her back gently.
