Chapter 74: It’s just that the other party is too understanding
It’s a chosen one!
Jack originally wanted to give some praise, but when he saw it was a chosen one, he immediately frowned.
Chosen ones, in his eyes, were merely commodities, human flesh! He couldn’t help but feel annoyed, wanting to reprimand.
However, the cola placed on the table in front of him was indeed tempting. After all, he had just been challenged by Annie, and after accepting the challenge, he rushed back without stopping, leaving him parched!
Having a cola at this time, and it looked like it was even chilled. After licking his lips, Jack eventually couldn’t resist the temptation, reached out, took the cola and took a sip.
Countless tiny bubbles exploded in his mouth and throat, the cool sensation spread throughout his body. Stimulating! Refreshing!
Having finished it in one go, Jack couldn’t help but let out a sigh. However, it was just a cola, human flesh in his eyes was still human flesh. He lifted his arm, wanting to wave and signal Alexander to step back.
But...
Just as he lifted his arm, a long object was immediately placed between his two fingers.
A cigarette?
These things are not easy to buy in the horror world!
Jack was tempted again, he involuntarily put the cigarette in his mouth, then reached out to get a lighter.
Click!
As soon as he lifted his hand, a flame rose from Alexander’s hand and was directly placed under the cigarette.
This chosen one... He’s very considerate!
Jack was stunned!
The copy had been opened for more than half a year now, and there had been hundreds of chosen ones who had died here!
He had seen all sorts of people, those who were scared, hysterical, resigned, and even those who fought desperately from the get-go!
But he had never seen... someone this understanding!
Could it be, he thought he could survive like this? Up next, he would have to plead desperately to him, right? Or was he overthinking?
However, Alexander didn’t say a word, picked up the empty paper cup and threw it directly into the trash can, and even wiped the table clean.
It was really the ’surface’ of the table, the ’face’ in ’face value’!
Seeing Alexander walk straight back, regardless of the other chosen ones’ terrified and panicked eyes, and just sat down in his chair.
This chosen one, like himself, is also a clean person!
Jack felt a sense of emotion in his heart. Unconsciously, his favourability score in his head had gone from indifferent zero to fifteen.
In fact, Jack was even thinking, should he break the rule and keep this young chosen one.
It’s not that he’s not ruthless enough, it’s just that the other party is too understanding!
"Continue with the main issue!"
Seeing Alexander sit down, perhaps indeed in a hurry, Jack didn’t care that the others were too scared to even sit down. He directly said, "I have important business to attend to, for the next seven days, all of you need to obey my deputy, understand?"
"Understood!" Although terrified, the chosen ones quickly responded. Obedience means death, and disobedience also means death, but if you don’t obey, the horror copy would let you know what the most painful death in the world is like.
No one dared not to agree, except for Alexander.
Seeing Alexander’s silence and frown, perhaps because of the favourability rating of 15, Jack didn’t immediately get angry, but asked, "Do you have an opinion?"
"Of course not!"
Alexander shook his head, first looked at the middle-aged man next to Jack, a powerful ghost: "Being able to work in your clinic is our honour. They say to judge a person by their eyes, the same goes for ghosts. Your deputy is smart and capable. Although he may not be comparable to you, boss, leading us is more than enough!"
Watching the deputy’s favourability score rise by ten points, Alexander then looked at Jack: "However, you are the backbone of our clinic! You’re irreplaceable. You’ll be gone for seven days, and we will inevitably be a bit anxious. Are you going to meet some big shots?"
Listen to this!
Jack felt even better than drinking another glass of ice cola, not bothering to put on airs, he smiled and said, "I have a contest, to compete in medical skills with the Heart Eater of the Ghost Clinic! You can rest assured, I can put you as the last one!"
As soon as Jack’s words came out, all the chosen ones were dumbfounded.
Just like that, he became the last one?
Isn’t the first principle for all chosen ones when entering a copy to stay as far away as possible from all the evil ghosts within it?
Goodness, if the flattery is in place, even the ghost can give you special treatment?
This is too sociable!
However, when they thought this was the end, Alexander slammed his hand on the man’s head on the table in front of him and suddenly stood up.
His eyes wide, teeth clenched, and veins bulging on his forehead!
What’s going on? Everyone was puzzled, but they heard Alexander grind out two words through clenched teeth: "Ghost Street!"
This hatred, it was as if they had an irreconcilable feud.
"Bro, what’s the matter, do you have a grudge against Ghost Street?" Jack asked, with a favorability rating of 20, even his form of address had changed.
"It’s more than a grudge! It’s irreconcilable!"
Alexander gritted his teeth and said with red eyes, "My parents are Asians, they had just moved me to the Americas before the horror copy arrived, but my big brother, second brother, girlfriend, little girlfriend!
And the headless sister next door, skin-peeling brother, and electric brother, they... they all went to Ghost Street, all of them are in Ghost Street... I hate it so much!"
Alexander spoke with tears in his eyes, as if he wished he could immediately burn Ghost Street to the ground.
Even the chosen ones were moved, feeling a bit empathetic.
A large family, even the neighbors were pulled into Ghost Street, seeing Alexander’s expression, do we even need to talk about the outcome? Too pitiful!
No wonder he’s so hateful upon hearing the three words "Ghost Street"!
Look at Jack again, he seemed moved to the point of wanting to wipe the corner of his eyes.
As the saying goes, the enemy’s enemy is a friend. Suppose you particularly hate someone, and wish to beat him up, but another person hates him even more, to the point of wanting to stab your enemy with a knife, how could you not get along well?
Alexander did not lie, after all, his big brother, second brother, and Su Rong and Annie, they are indeed in Ghost Street!
And Annie is still waiting to compete with you!
Alexander didn’t clarify what happened to these people in Ghost Street, it’s not his fault that Jack filled in the blanks himself!
