Chapter 1619: The positive and negative luck, the story of the vending machine (2 more)

Views:

The red-haired girl in front of him, Xuexi, was temporarily in the process of transitioning from the "fantasy stage" to the "practice stage".

If she had a chance to convince Luke, then she would have succeeded in overthrowing her superiors.

But now, she... didn't seem to have failed? Luke took a sip of tea and actually became interested in the Shizhitian family.

Apart from anything else, just looking at Xue Xu and that bunch of famous bodyguards, the Ishida family’s background cannot be clean.

That Ishichida Shingen might just be a huge experience package.

He pondered in his mind and asked, "Does Ishichida Shingen like to kill people? Well, for example, were the people you and those bodyguards killed ordered by him?"

Yukio wasn't too surprised that he knew about the murder.

It is not credible to conceal the fact of murder in front of a murderer.

She confessed her murder experience and Ishichida Shingen's background in a clean and concise manner.

Luke's pheromone manipulation, her desire for freedom, and her hatred for Ishichida Shingen made her make a choice.

After listening to this, Luke paused for a moment and said, "Leave me your contact information and I will find you."

Xue Xu immediately asked the waiter to bring a pen and paper, wrote down a mobile phone number, and placed it respectfully on the table in front of him.

Luke nodded and took out a neon coin: "Let's see your luck, heads or tails?"

Xuexio felt a little cold on his back: Could it be that this is a game where if I look at the front, I'll be spared, but if I look at the back, I'll die immediately

"Counter." She hesitated for a moment and chose to oppose.

Because "positive" doesn't seem to fit her feeling of surviving death.

Ten seconds later, the coin came to rest on the table—heads facing up.

Xuexue wanted to tremble again, but his death sense didn't react at all.

Luke nodded and pointed at the coin: "It is the greatest luck in your life. Take it and you can go."

Although Xuexu's mind was full of questions, he immediately took the coin and held it tightly in his hand. He stood up and bowed 90 degrees: "Thank you for your magnanimity, sir. I will take my leave now."

Luke waved his hand, picked up his phone again, and started sketching.

Xuexu hunched over and retreated several meters before slowly turning around and walking away in small steps.

Luke really didn't lie to her.

If she hadn't lost the coin toss, he would have had to knock her out to gain his power, so she was really lucky.

At this moment, the system panel shows: Death Perception (Special Spiritual System, partially learnable): Prerequisite Spirituality 40, Points 100,000.

Luke learned it casually.

He doesn't really care about the side effects. Nowadays, the vigilante missions are mainly done by his clones. It is difficult for him to die and he is not afraid of death.

Besides, he didn't think many people could scare him through death perception.

If this ability was too sensitive, and Xuexi would be frightened to death when she saw a murderer, she would have been admitted to a mental hospital long ago.

Only after Xue Xu left did Luke put down his phone and carefully experience the perception of death.

This ability is far more bizarre than Yukio's description, perhaps it would be more accurate to describe it as a premonition of death.

Yukio can see people die, but she has to be there.

Just like last night when Luke wanted to kill those two evil bodyguards, she felt that they were going to die.

The stronger the premonition, the easier it would be for these two people to die.

She described this premonition as the breath of death, but was it actually Luke's murderous intent directed at the two bodyguards

It is not yet certain whether this "murderous intent" is a mental fluctuation or something else.

After all, like most people with super powers, Yukio lacks systematic and in-depth research on his own super powers, and only uses it based on instinct and experience.

After Luke gained the ability, he only analyzed the original owner's experience as experimental data, and did not really regard it as the truth.

The key to using each ability is to suit yourself rather than simply copying it.

After a rough analysis, he paused his research.

Now no one has released "murderous intent" towards him, so there is no intuitive feeling of the effect of this ability.

But this is not difficult. We can find those trafficking gangs to test them later.

Thinking of this, he put away his phone, stood up and walked out of the cafe.

After a night, Tokyo's extremely busy morning begins again.

A large number of office workers flocked to Tokyo from Chiba Prefecture, Kanagawa Prefecture, and Saitama Prefecture, and began to accept a new day of oppression and exploitation by the company.

The people on the tram were packed like sardines, just like in some action movies Luke had seen.

The difference is that there aren’t many pretty women in it.

Luke stood in front of a vending machine on the street, looking at the various drinks inside.

In Neon, you can never guess what the drinks in these machines taste like.

Luke had tried many kinds of soda last night, such as cucumber soda, coffee soda, blueberry soda, etc., and finally bought a bottle of soy sauce soda.

He only tasted a small bite of each, and sent the rest to New York via the storage space, leaving it for the master to fool some dog head.

As long as you say it is Neon's secret eighteen-flavor soda or something, then Doghead will definitely be very interested.

Its sense of taste is quite different from that of humans, so maybe you can find something it likes. Then you can buy a few extra and leave them as prizes for it.

Right now, Luke is buying wasabi soda, curry soda, green tea soda, and takoyaki soda.

For this kind of surprise, it’s better to buy a little more at one time. Buying them one by one is a waste of time.

At this time, he heard someone buying something at the vending machine on the corner, and judging from the voices, they should be two young women.

Because there was a 90-degree corner, no one could see each other.

But Luke could hear them chatting about last night's TV series as they searched for drinks.

He didn't care and just stuffed money into the vending machine, then watched the bottles of drinks fall to the ground.

Just as I picked up the drink, I heard a woman's groan of pain next to me, followed by another woman's surprised voice, and the sound of footsteps quickly moving away.

Luke rolled his eyes and couldn't help but twitch his lips: Are you kidding me? Is there really such a thing in Tokyo

He grabbed the curry soda from the vending machine, swung it up and threw it around the corner.

Primary precision launch!

Whoosh! Bang!

The plastic bottle of curry soda hit a wall about five or six meters away, then spun and turned and flew towards a thin man who was running at full speed on the street.

Boom!

The thin man's head collided with the curry soda, making a dull but somewhat empty sound. He fell to the ground like a dog eating shit, and a few white teeth could be vaguely seen flying out.

But he was knocked unconscious by the curry soda and was no longer aware of any of this.

Luke made a move with a bottle, and at the same time, enhanced the listening range of the primary sound waves.

Soon he discovered that more than ten meters away on the side, there was a man wearing a hat and a mask, holding a camera and filming everything here.

He grabbed a bottle of mustard soda, moved sideways, and threw it out with a cannon shot, hitting the corner of the wall.

Duang! Boom!

The man holding the digital camera felt a pain in the back of his head and blacked out. He also fainted.

The high-flying mustard soda hit the lamppost behind him, reflected on the back of his head, and then rolled to the ground.

Luke grabbed the remaining bottles of drinks, stuffed them into the eco-friendly bag he was carrying, and walked out.
