Chapter 8 Taboo

Denise's ghost is controlled by the cubs of 'Londo'.

The body was stared at by something unknown again.

How popular is this?

Almost instinctively, Jason twitched his nose.

pity……

There is no food aroma at all.

Then, Jason looked at Denise with careful eyes.

And Dennis?

Completely unaware, he just smiled excitedly and danced around in circles, just like...a runaway Erha.

Not only stupid, but also crazy.

What can be so special about such an Erha girl?

Jason couldn't help but ask himself.

Did I guess wrong?

Somewhat suspicious, Jason took the initiative to speak.

"Have you had any special experiences?"

Jason asked.

"Special experience?"

"When I was a child, I was hit by a carriage, fell into a puddle, and was bitten by a dog. Does that count?"

"Several times!"

Denise thought carefully and replied.

"except this."

"I mean contact with the mystical side."

Jason frowned and had to ask in more understandable words.

"have!"

"You!"

Denise raised her hand and pointed at Jason.

"except me."

"Except for the monster I just purified and the existence in the coffin."

"Has anything happened to you recently that you are concerned about?"

Jason had to narrow his question again.

"emmm..."

"When I watched the circus before, that maltose candy was very sweet."

"Sweeter than any candy I've ever had!"

After Denise thought carefully again, she gave one thing that she thought was most important to her.

sugar?

Jason narrowed his eyes, and then continued to ask: "Has that girl's family ever come to express condolences to you?"

"No!"

"Even the little girl can't be found."

"Besides, my mother said that the little girl probably got in by evading the fare!"

Denise shook her head.

Then, she suddenly became angry.

"hateful!"

"How did she get in? The conductor there is very sharp!"

"I worked for three weeks to save up for the circus tickets."

Listening to Denise's indignant description, Jason began to string together information in his mind:

Even Denise couldn't escape the circus, but a little girl easily slipped in.

Then, the unexpected happened.

The little girl was saved, but Denise, who protected the little girl, died.

Normally, the little girl's family would come to express their condolences to Denise.

But the other party's family did not show up, and even the little girl disappeared.

At that time, Denise had eaten...candy given by the little girl!

Things that seemed normal seemed a little weird to Jason at this time.

Is it the effect of that sugar?

If it was the effect of that candy, then who was that little girl?

Moreover, if this assumption is true...

That little girl came for Denise too!

Thinking of this, Jason did not hesitate and said to Denise simply: "Tell your parents to leave Karl Town immediately, and you go to a bigger city with them."

The world in front of us is weird since there are monsters.

Big cities are no exception.

but,

Big cities should have roles like ‘guardians’.

Just like the old Lord Lord.

Thinking of the old Sir, Jason couldn't help but take a deep breath and suppress the discomfort in his heart.

Then, he felt Denise standing in front of him nervously, with no intention of telling his parents.

"I thought I was going to die, so I just told them..."

"I am your apprentice."

"Apprentice of the Night's Watch."

"I want to go far, far away with you."

Denise lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Jason at all. She put her hands in front of her, her two index fingers kept touching each other, and her voice became lower and lower.

However, the next moment, the dead girl raised her head and raised her voice.

"You don't want my parents to know that I lied and know the truth, right?"

"You will definitely help me, right?"

The dead girl looked at Jason expectantly.

Jason nodded, and then, with the deceased girl's joyful expression, he said lightly:

"Um."

"I will tell your parents truthfully that was the original plan, but now the plan has changed."

"I need to go to that place alone."

"You and your parents are heading to a bigger city."



Outside the Jade Hotel.

Denise's family bid farewell to Jason.

"Thank you for everything you've done for Denise."

"You have to travel at night, and the autumn wind is too cool. I hope it can add some warmth to you."

As Denise's father spoke, he took out a leather mattress and handed it to Jason.

Jason took the leather mattress and found it soft and warm in his hands, with a faint smell of freshly made salt.

"Thanks."

Jason thanked him politely.

"nothing."

"It's just a lion skin mattress."

"Compared with your kindness, it is nothing."

Denise's father showed a hearty smile.

Lion skin?

Jason was startled.

Then, he nodded slightly.

He turned around and got on the carriage.

After laying the lion skin mattress on the seat, he ordered Peters to get on his way.

There is no doubt that there should be a lot of unknowns hidden in Jaydenlon.

so……

He needs to leave quickly.

Because, Jason was not sure whether he would be able to reach the 'Hans' seaport before the 26th if he was involved.

As for Denise’s family?

After touching the lion skin mattress, Jason felt that there was no need to worry too much.

That father is more reliable than he seems.

So does Denise's brother.

Recalling the performance of the two young men in the face of the abnormal noise in the coffin, Jason couldn't help but praise him. Ordinary people would have collapsed to the ground after seeing such a scene.

Thinking about Denise's mother, she also behaved well.

It can be said that except for Denise, the whole family is very reliable.

And Denise like this?

I guess it was picked up.

With such a guess, Jason turned on the kerosene lamp in the car, placed the books given by the old jazz on the small table, and started to read them carefully.

Regardless of whether Denise was picked up or not, she once again told Jason a truth: if you are not strong enough, you cannot even control your own destiny.

Therefore, Jason took the lead in choosing to detail some of the 'monster records'.

After all, he only needs to become familiar with the characteristics of four more monsters before he can advance to become a night watcher.

In the records, there are two types.

‘Herken’ and ‘Kirken’.

But just when Jason turned to the page of the book that recorded 'Herken', a voice of unknown meaning suddenly sounded in his ears.

The moment the sound appeared, all the muscles in Jason's body tensed up.

He subconsciously held the handle of the knife.

However, it is of no use at all.

Because the harm caused by invisible sounds is also invisible.

Buzz!

Amid the intense tinnitus, Jason's vision began to blur.

Blood continued to flow from the nostrils, corners of the eyes, and ears.

Jason's strong body began to twitch.

He felt like his brain was boiling.

But that voice is still echoing.

Moreover, on the verge of death, Jason found that he understood the meaning of this sentence——

'Do you want some candy?'
