Chapter 135: Full Moon(Thanks for _Sire_)
"Wait!" Seeing Full Moon about to make her move, Alexander quickly spoke up, "Your father said strangers, but we’re not, we’re friends!"
"Friends?" Full Moon tilted her head, looking up and down at the two men, finally settling on Alexander, "He seems familiar, but you, I don’t remember at all!"
"That’s because you have amnesia, we’re actually all friends, otherwise, why would you remember Richard?" Alexander quickly replied.
"That seems to make sense!" Full Moon nodded, looking at Richard, "Is this true?"
At this point, Richard was clearly anxious, "Full Moon, you’ve been deceived, this is the horror world, your father, your real father..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a thundercloud began to circle around in the air, and the spherical lightning started to gather again.
"Shut up!" Alexander quickly interrupted Richard and turned to Full Moon, "Of course it’s true, he doesn’t know your father well, but we do! Your father and I are good buddies!"
"You know my father?" Full Moon’s eyes brightened immediately, looking excitedly at Alexander.
In an instant, her affinity towards Alexander soared from 5 to 25 points.
It was obvious that Full Moon’s memory had been erased by some force, and now she was like a little girl.
Alexander’s brain started working fast.
Who could be the father Full Moon was talking about?
Undoubtedly, there were only two options: the man in black on the top of the mountain or the mysterious Mr. K.
Given Full Moon’s behavior, the father she mentioned didn’t seem to appear often.
The beautiful woman in the kimono outside had been knocked flying but her injuries shouldn’t be too severe. Since she hasn’t shown up yet, she was likely blocked by the surrounding thunder and lightning.
Clearly, Mr. K was not in this instance.
Even the man in black and his two subordinates were within Full Moon’s attack range.
If he put himself in Mr. K’s shoes, the one who was controlling the whole conspiracy, he would naturally want to keep the ghost master of this place under his control.
Full Moon’s memory had been wiped, making her appear innocent. Mr. K and the man in black seemed to only have a partnership and therefore were wary of each other. This might also be the reason why the woman in the kimono, who had been intercepted and knocked flying halfway, did not come to seek revenge.
Mr. K’s goal was to collect funds, but since it involved the mainline ghost city competition, his final aim was likely related to the competition.
The Dark Hell was probably his target!
So, as the brainwashed subject, Full Moon was likely to have been given information related to this.
The information flashed rapidly in his mind. On the surface, he nodded without any change in his expression and pretended to be familiar, saying, "K? Of course I know him! We are good buddies, and I’m his older brother!"
"Really?" Full Moon, although her memory had been erased, was evidently intelligent. She looked at Alexander with suspicion, "Why haven’t I heard my father mention you?"
"Do we need to mention our relationship? I even helped change your diapers when you were little, if you don’t believe me, ask Richard!" Alexander smiled, acting as if they were all familiar with each other.
"Um... yes! Not only did he help change your diapers, he even fed you milk!" Richard was still in a state of shock, answering subconsciously, his gaze lingering on Alexander.
Impressive! This ability to lie so convincingly, could this guy be a chosen one?
"Actually, the main reason your father didn’t mention me might be that you’ve lost your memory now, and he’s afraid you’ll expose us!" Alexander saw Full Moon’s affinity increase by another five points, but she still didn’t completely trust him.
So, Alexander carefully took out the city lord’s mansion invitation card, "We’re on a big mission, my goal is to infiltrate the city lord’s mansion, so I absolutely cannot reveal my identity!"
Upon hearing this, Full Moon’s affinity for Alexander shot up by another ten points. She nodded her head like a student who had understood the answer in class, "I know! I know! You’re here for revenge! You didn’t lie to me!"
"Of course, how could I lie to you, I held you when you were little!" Alexander showed a smile on his face.
His speculation was correct. Mr. K, as a hidden figure, instilled hostility towards the Shadowy Hell in Full Moon while erasing her memory.
It just so happened that Alexander was able to use this to his advantage.
"Uncle, are you here to find my father?" Full Moon, who had been successfully deceived, blinked her big, innocent eyes and looked guiltily at Alexander, "But dad said he’s doing something important and he would contact me."
"Ahem..." Alexander was almost caught off guard by Full Moon’s calling him uncle. He was only 18 in this life, and he had already become an uncle?
But since he claimed to be the older brother of her father, Full Moon calling him uncle wasn’t exactly wrong.
So Alexander quickly waved his hand, "Just call me brother, although I’m K’s older brother, we are equal as brothers, and I can’t take advantage of you! This time, I came to..."
Originally, Alexander thought about just taking Full Moon away, clean and straightforward.
But on second thought, if he was Mr. K, he would definitely have left some sort of backup plan.
"For instance, as soon as Full Moon leaves this area, she would be immediately noticed, or if someone tries to take Full Moon away, they would instantly be attacked by her."
Upon this thought, Alexander quickly corrected himself and said, "I’m here to check on you! You can’t leave here on your own, can you?"
"Yes!" Full Moon obviously fully believed Alexander now, she revealed her circumstance without any guard up:
"Daddy said that Full Moon has to complete a very important plan here and can’t leave the roof of this building at all. If anyone tries to take Full Moon away, I should attack them with all my might!"
As expected, Alexander nodded, his suspicions confirmed. It was a good thing he was quick to react.
The only way to take Full Moon away seemed to be maxing out her affection. By getting her goodwill to full level, according to the characteristics of the skill, he could directly sign a contract and naturally take Full Moon away.
"Big brother!" Full Moon looked at Alexander, her eyes full of anticipation, and asked, "You and Daddy are both seeking revenge, so do you know when Daddy will come to take me back? It’s so boring here!"
"That depends on when the plan is completed, but don’t worry..." Alexander hesitated for a moment, then said, "The plan will be completed soon. During this period, I will come to accompany you often. I won’t let you be bored!"
"Thank you, big brother!" A bright smile immediately spread across Full Moon’s face: "Big brother is the best, besides Daddy, big brother is the one who spoils Full Moon the most! Can you tell me about things outside? I don’t remember anything from before."
"Of course!" Alexander nodded and started to tell Full Moon some interesting stories with a smile.
Standing aside, Richard was completely stunned.
People from the city lord’s mansion were really different! Could an invitation card even be used this way? This totally exceeded Richard’s comprehension limit!
However, seeing how Alexander managed to coax Full Moon into calling him ’big brother’ within a few words, he suddenly felt that something wasn’t quite right.
Why did he become Alexander’s underling, and why did he trust him so much? It seemed to be because of that invitation card, right?
What exactly was wrong? Why did he feel that Full Moon’s situation was somewhat similar to his own?
