Chapter 4 Remember?

I'm too happy too early?

Young Denise was taken aback.

Jason's answer was completely different from what she had imagined, so much so that she forgot what to say next.

After about a second or two, he stammered and said awkwardly:

It's so hot in your car...

call!

Jason opened the car window beside him, and the autumn wind at night blew straight in with a chill.

Denise's hair was blown into the air.

At this moment, the girl's heart is as messy as her hair.

The person in front of you...

Are you sick?

The girl commented like this, and was prepared to stop saying a word to Jason on the next journey.

However, unexpectedly, when Jason closed the window, he handed over the newspaper on the side.

What's the meaning?

The girl took the newspaper for unknown reasons.

Gone Cat?

She has read it, and the writing is good, but it is rumored that the author is a Duan Geng Wang who often uses the name of collecting wind, but actually eats a bad stomach.

The House of Divination invites you?

She also knows this. She has also been to the fortune-telling house, a group of chaotic guys. Not to mention the expensive fees, there are not many accurate ones. At least, if she wants to find someone she likes, none of those guys can fortune-telling.

What was even more irritating was that after a few guys finished divination, they even told her to be careful of bad luck.

Obviously, this is a scam!

She, Denise, is not fooled!

Yesterday's circus performance was a disaster! 》

Circus show?

Has it been performed?

Why can't I remember?

Shouldn't I have gone to the show and then lost time on the stagecoach?

There was doubt in Denise's eyes.

Then, keep watching.

Yesterday's circus was good enough and grand enough, if it wasn't for the lion's sudden violent attack at the end, we would have applauded! But now we can only mourn that heroic small town girl Denise...'

lion?

attack?

Denise froze in her chair as if struck by lightning.

At the same time, some memories in her mind that she didn't want to recall at all slowly appeared.

After saving pocket money for three months, she plans to go to Jiedan Lun to watch a circus, and then buy back the long-cherished trinkets as gifts for the autumn harvest.

But because of the divination in the divination house, this gift of hers can only be waited until the winter.

However, fortunately, the circus was beautiful, and the little girl next to her also gave her a piece of maltose.

But……

The nightmare has come!

At the end of the circus, the lion, who was supposed to jump through the ring of fire, suddenly went mad, opened his mouth and rushed towards her.

She slumped to the ground in fright.

The little girl next to her was even more frightened.

At that time, she didn't know what was wrong, but she pushed the little girl away.

Then, then...

Am I dead?

Denise raised her head, looked at Jason blankly, and asked in a hoarse voice.

Jason didn't answer, let alone any expression.

Just glanced at the newspaper.

In the illustration above, there is a corpse covered with a white cloth.

turn out to be……

I'm dead.

Denise muttered to herself, her face that was full of vitality turned gloomy, her breath quickly became gloomy and cold, and her complete body became incomplete and blood dripping.

why?

Why am I dying?

Why!

Denise questioned Jason, who was close at hand, his gloomy face quickly twisted, becoming terrifying, and his eyes showed yearning for life and... disgust.

Especially when she looked at Jason, there was a sense of bloody killing.

Then……

Snapped!

Jason raised his hand and slapped Denise in the face.

Denise was stunned.

I was beaten?

I died and was beaten?

I am the dead, he is the living, he should be afraid of me, how dare he hit me?

Just when Denise was still doubting the life of the dead,

The hand Jason had just drawn in the past, and the backhand was drawn again.

Snapped!

This time it was louder.

And, the hand hasn't dropped yet.

Seeing Jason's palm falling again, Denise shouted:

and many more!

Covering her cheeks with her hands, Denise looked in horror at the tall, strong, indifferent man in front of her. At this moment, she seemed to understand a little...why Jason said she was too happy.

Are you an exorcist?

Denise asked nervously.

In her mind, the biographical novels she had read had already begun to appear.

Ordinary people will be frightened when they see the dead, and only the exorcist in the biographical novel will ignore the fear of the dead.

And every exorcist is cold and ruthless.

For the deceased, he will not let one go mercilessly.

But to Denise's heart, Jason shook his head.

Do not.

I'm……

night guard.

Jason replied.

Suddenly, Denise, who was relieved, became uneasy again.

night guard?

It seems to be an existence that the dead care about more than an exorcist.

However, looking at the indifferent Jason, Denise did not dare to ask.

And Jason remained silent again.

The atmosphere froze, making Denise more and more restless.

For the first time, she found that the dead seemed more useless than she thought.

She can't pass through walls, can't be invisible, can't move objects out of thin air, and she doesn't even have the slightest special ability, and she's... beaten.

It was even worse than when she was alive.

At least, when she was alive, she didn't have to be beaten!

At most, it is to stay in bed in the morning and stay up at night, and be recited by parents.

What's the use of me wanting such a life of the dead?

Denise asked herself.

Naturally there is no answer.

She is already dead.

Although she insisted on using her and didn't want to use it.

Probably not used to it for a while.

Over time, it gets used to it.

Denise, who really couldn't hold back in silence, opened her mouth cautiously and asked.

You found out that I was dead at the beginning?

Then, you worry about me causing unexpected disturbances.

So you are going to take precautions in advance and let me get in the car?

Denise asked and saw Jason looking at it with a strange look.

That look looks like...

mercy?

What do you pity me for?

Even if you can hit me, I'm still a dead man!

I also have the dignity of the dead!

Just when Denise wanted to make a statement, he saw that Jason suddenly pulled out a wide-bladed short-handled machete, and then took out a gun with a large muzzle, more muzzle than it had ever seen before. must be big.

But what scares Denise the most is...

Jason's eyes.

The kind of excited eyes that seem to be carnivores when they are hunting.

sorry!

I was wrong!

Please don't eat me!

Denise sat upright and spoke very fast.

But Jason ignored Denise at all, just pushed open the car door and jumped out.

next moment,

The roar of the beast suddenly sounded!

In this roar, Denise was stunned, and more memories began to emerge——

She remembered!
