They all call me master

The door of the cane shop opened, and a figure appeared at the door of the shop. Through the dim light, Arthur could clearly see that it was Tate - the same face as the Tate in his previous memory.

Even the smile is brighter.

But in this dim light, this smile made Arthur instinctively resist.

It's not that the smile isn't sincere or that it's like wearing a mask.

On the contrary, the other party's smile was very sincere, so sincere that there was no trace of hypocrisy.

Looking at such a smile, Arthur actually hoped that there was something false in it.

because……

That would be like a person.

"Guest, welcome!"

"do you need anything?"

Tate asked seriously with a sincere smile.

"No."

"Need not."

"Thanks."

Arthur replied very quickly, and at the same time, he gently knocked on the carriage to signal the driver to leave quickly.

However, the expected sound of the reins shaking did not appear.

The auxiliary police officer driving the car twisted his body and put one hand on the roof of the car, as if he wanted to say something to Arthur, but from Arthur's perspective, all he could see was the blue uniform on the upper body of the other person.

But suddenly, a head occupied Arthur's entire field of vision.

The head of the driving auxiliary policeman was turned over and pressed against the glass of the car, filling Arthur's field of vision. The neck was stretched to a certain limit, but there was no pain at all on the other person's face.

All I have is a smile.

A bright smile.

A genuine smile.

"Counsellor, do you have anything to give me?"

the driver asked.

Arthur didn't panic, let alone scream in fear. He sat there as if he was thinking seriously.

Then, he raised his head and said.

"Give me some fries."

"Sweet tomato sauce, and a little bit of black pepper."

"By the way, the French fries should be wide."

Arthur's serious answer stunned Tate and the driving auxiliary police officer.

They didn't expect Arthur to answer like this.

And, most importantly, they didn't feel the slightest bit of fear from Arthur.

But at this moment, a blur of footsteps came to the ears of Tate and the driving auxiliary police. They immediately understood what was going on. The person in front of them was fake, and the real person had run away. They immediately took them with them. The habitual laughter chased the footsteps.

"Guest, do you need anything?"

"Counsellor, do you have any instructions?"

Word after word rang out from their mouths, and the entire Simok Avenue was almost filled with their voices.

But they didn't catch up with the target.

There was nothingness there.

Just empty streets and endless rainstorms.

Bang bang bang!

Raindrops hit the glass of the carriage, and after taking the opportunity to carry the Box of Athos away with [Hand of Nothingness], Arthur began to adjust his sitting position and neck pillow so that he could sit there in a more comfortable position.

He squinted and listened to the sound of rain, as if taking a nap in the afternoon, even though there were two monsters around him.

The auxiliary police officer driving the car grew back, but he started tearing at his face, and his entire face became bloody and bloody as he breathed.

The only thing that hasn't changed is that smile.

Scarlet blood colored the smile.

Tate had completely lost his face, his eyes, nose, and ears were gone, as if they had been scrawled with black charcoal, leaving only darkness.

But the smile was still there, and the other party still maintained a sincere smile.

But those white teeth began to become sharp against the dark face.

Haha, haha!

Breathing heavily and smelling a strong smell under the heavy rain, the two monsters just circled around the carriage, like wolves waiting for an opportunity, ready to pounce into the carriage and tear Arthur's body apart.

And Arthur?

He opened the carriage door.

He extended an invitation to the two monsters.

"Come on, come up."

"It's too cold in the rainstorm."

"It's very warm here."

Arthur's soft words made the two monsters hesitate. They had never encountered such a situation.

Inexplicably, from their perspective, Arthur became a little strange.

They looked at Arthur's sincere eyes with a little fear.

fear?

impossible!

They are the ones who should be feared!

How could they be frightened by Arthur?

They jumped on the carriage.

Their entry made the carriage suddenly crowded.

They were almost face to face with Arthur.

Arthur could even clearly smell the smell of blood and an unknown fishy stench.

Moreover, an unspeakable darkness began to envelope the carriage.

Arthur could see everything in the carriage clearly.

Everything outside the carriage was completely dark.

But Arthur didn't care.

He stared at the two monsters and continued to smile.

“Everyone was yelling at each other, no one was respecting each other or putting themselves in each other’s shoes – and I was different.

I understand you.

because……

I've also been called a 'monster'.

Hahahahahahaha! "

Arthur's laughter became high-pitched, tearing, completely inhuman.

He covered his face and laughed wildly.

A lighted match appeared in his hand.

"Here, light up."

Arthur said as the match fell onto the carriage floor.

A fuse was lit again.

This was not the first fuse to be lit.

When Arthur laughed wildly, the first fuse was ignited, and it happened to reach the end at this moment.

The two monsters discovered this and were about to escape, but Arthur grabbed their arms tightly. Arthur looked at them with a half-smile and said in a relaxed tone.

"Why so serious?"

"Keep your smile on!"

“There’s nothing more powerful than giving someone a smile!”

madman!

Let me go crazy!

You monster!

The two monsters roared, but they could not change the outcome.

boom!

Violent explosions, sky-high flames, the police station carriage was blown to pieces, and the surrounding darkness was also dispersed in an instant.

But, the next moment——

The heavy rain is still falling.

Arthur was still sitting in the carriage.

The door of the 'Tate Cane Shop' next to it was open, and the Tate stuck to his creed.

The auxiliary police officer who was driving jumped off the carriage and walked to the side of the carriage.

"Counsellor, do you have anything to give me?"

Arthur smiled and waved his hand.

Text prompts that only he could see began to appear——

[Bluff +5]

[Bluff Level 5: 5/30]

…

Of course Arthur was acting just now. He is a simple 'spiritual medium', how could he be a monster?

It's all slander!

It's all slander!

He just occasionally borrows the shoulders of other giants.

Arthur glanced at the damaged [Protective Copper Coin] and narrowed his eyes slightly - it was obvious that although it was some kind of illusion just now, the 'harmful behavior' was real, both to him and the caster. in this way.

He listened carefully to the sound of breathing coming from the alley next to the shop.

The other party has tried hard to suppress this gasp.

But it's no use.

The backlash was too violent.

From the beginning, Arthur heard more than once the sound of coughing up blood and the sound of struggling in the rain after falling.

The other party seems to have no power to resist?

The damaged [Protective Copper Coin] needs to be compensated!

Arthur took the umbrella handed by the driving auxiliary police officer, walked to the entrance of the alley, and looked at the huddled figure lying on the ground in the heavy rain.

He asked calmly——

“Sir, do you think I look like a human being or do I look like a god?”
