After the extremely thick white fog dissipated, Melissa looked at Block 23 and sighed softly—there was a bookstore that changed her destiny.
She was wearing a long leather trench coat, and when the depressing street wind blew, it also made her jacket squeak.
Melissa was keenly aware that the sudden white fog was not formed naturally, but the power of some powerful supernatural beings. When she approached the 27th block, she saw a black-robed man hurriedly come out of the bookstore, holding his arms in his arms. Seems to be holding a book.
Now she is sure that such a fog is not a natural formation, but the black-robed man—the new bookstore customer? she thinks.
Thinking of this, Melissa's heart began to ache.
A sense of alienation over time came to mind—new guests came, old guests left completely.
She has red hair like fire, her ponytail is no longer raised high, but is cut short and tied low, her hands are in the red leather pockets, her expression is not as vivid as before, as if she grew up overnight ten years old.
After the battle in Block 67, she used the overclocking study obtained from the books given by the owner of the bookstore to enable herself to realize the power of God-level across classes, promoted to Destruction-level in one fell swoop, and mastered some rules in advance. At this time, she has already He has grown to a height beyond the reach of his peers.
- even higher.
But the price—losing my father forever.
The Mystery Tower posthumously awarded her as a family member of a martyr again, and has the opportunity to directly become a senior executive officer of the Mystery Tower, as compensation for the family of the martyr and an affirmation of her talent and talent.
Melissa smiled wryly. She didn't expect to have the opportunity to become the so-called family of martyrs twice.
She sighed softly, the feeling of grief had turned into numbness from Uncle Winston's mouth when she heard the death of her father, she clenched her fists and walked towards the bookstore.
Confusion is like a shackle around her neck, and at the same time she puts a shackle on herself, and is approaching the execution ground every day... Maybe she should take revenge, but who should she seek revenge for
Winston said that Wilde and his father had perished together, and perhaps that was the best outcome.
Melissa was in pain and confusion. When she was overwhelmed, she had already reached the 23rd block. When the white fog cleared, she unknowingly came to the door of the bookstore.
There is no face to see Boss Lin now. After all, Boss Lin has already given him a chance to turn back time and control the battlefield. He has given himself and his father a way to survive, but he still failed.
She walked into the bookstore slowly, at least saying sorry to Boss Lin.
…
Lin Jie was gently placing the gift from the black-robed man from Xiacheng District—the piece of life, he felt as if there were guests coming, and he couldn't help but sigh that there were actually two customers in today's fog.
He looked up quickly with joy, and saw a familiar face.
Hiss, Melissa? ! Lin Jie almost threw the fragments of life in his hand to the ground.
Lin Jie's brain with an IQ of 270 began to spin rapidly, and immediately thought of whether Melissa was here to find Joseph? But Joseph seemed to have said that he couldn't tell Melissa that he was still alive.
Although I don't understand this kind of education, Melissa really looks like she has grown up... Lin Jie looked at Melissa up and down. Indeed, this child has grown a lot in all aspects, and even dressed up a lot. Woolen cloth.
"Melissa, you are still here." Lin Jie said lightly.
"... Boss Lin." Melissa lowered her head, her red hair was no longer flamboyant, but meekly pressed against her head, her voice was unspeakably hoarse, and said, "I'm sorry."
ah? Why are you saying sorry to me? … Lin Jie was lost in thought, but he still frowned, looking like he was a terrifying child from the past.
Could it be that this child is growing up so fast? I already know that the previous communication with me - arm-wrestling with me, challenging me, etc., are all childish behaviors and disrespect to me, a highly respected (self-confident) bookstore owner
Is it growing too fast? ! Lin Jie was shocked.
Melissa quietly raised her head, glanced at Lin Jie, saw his serious face, and did not answer whether to forgive herself.
With the help of the bookstore owner, he still failed to protect his father and let him leave in that war completely. This kind of thing disappointed Boss Lin too much, and he really should apologize.
"At least, at least Wilde is dead." Melissa raised her head and said slightly firmly.
"Ah? Old Wang is dead?" Lin Jie was immediately shocked, "Who told you that?"
Um? Melissa opened her eyes wide, and at the same time, she and Lin Jie were confused.
"No, no?" Melissa had a heart of guilt. In her eyes, the battle of No. 67 was beyond her ability to bear as a child, especially the collision between the gods at the end. Of course, she was Wilde was never seen dying.
To be precise, no one saw it, not even Joseph.
Is Wilde really dead? … That dark wizard was very cunning, and Melissa wasn't entirely convinced that she had never seen a corpse.
"I don't know his life or death, I just want you to make sure." Lin Jie said seriously.
Melissa: "…"
"Forget it, leave this alone." Lin Jie put down his work and frowned.
To tell the truth, although Wilde murdered a dog and joined a cult, he did not harm anyone. People are still good. They should not die, and it is strange to discuss whether they will die or not.
No matter what happened to Wilde, he once gave Lin Jie a gift and took care of the business. He was considered a friend. If a friend is gone, Lin Jie would not believe it easily.
"You came to me for your father's business, right?" Lin Jie asked, clearing his throat.
Melissa is still immersed in the shock that Wilde has not been eliminated... Mr. Lin asked me to confirm the life and death of Wilde? Are you implying that Wilde is still alive? !
Melissa clenched her fists, her fingernails digging into her flesh.
She had trouble breathing, an unspeakable storm surged through her chest—she couldn't accept the fact that Wilde was still alive.
"I know about your father, but I hope you get out of your grief, because you have bigger tasks waiting for you." Lin Jie comforted seriously: "The most important thing is to let the deceased see your growth, That will make him happy."
Melissa raised her eyes and walked out of the fact that Wilde was still alive.
bigger task? ... Could it be that he continued to kill Wilde to avenge his father? Even if Boss Lin doesn't tell me, I have to do this kind of task, Melissa took a deep breath—
"I will let my father see my growth. I want him to know that what he can't accomplish, I want to accomplish, and what he can't do, I want to do..." Melissa said with a slight choked sobs.
Lin Jie nodded and said, "Good boy."
