Chapter 977 Partner
"In short, the current situation is that Qiujun, Dencijun and Xiao Pava are practicing in that demon's body, right." The person who spoke was Makima, and Himeno was reporting the situation to her. Arai and Higashiyama Xiaohong also came out. They were frightened to begin with, and of course they would not continue to stay in the devil's stomach. Only Denji and Pava could do such a crazy thing. Only heartless people wouldn't find it strange.
"Yes." Ji Ye nodded.
"Practice, it sounds a bit like a boy's comic." Makima here smiled and said, "So why did you come out too?"
The person who asked was Linton, and of course Linton himself came out. Although the time inside was suspended, it had nothing to do with Linton. After all, his mission time was calculated in cycles, so staying inside was a waste of time. That’s all.
"Just get a clone to teach them." Linton said, "Besides, teaching them is very boring. You can't let university professors teach primary school students. In other words, for the sake of my nephew, I have to teach them reluctantly. ”
"What does it teach? Magic?" Makima asked.
"The clone hasn't exploded yet, so I don't know what you're teaching." Linton said, spreading his hands.
"So, what does that mean?" Makima asked.
"It's too troublesome to explain. In short, it can make my nephew stronger. You can ask him directly about the specific situation when he comes back. Anyway, I don't think he will hide it from you." Linton said, "That space is not Very stable. Although the demon can pause time in his domain, this ability cannot be used all the time. It needs to take a rest after a while, so my nephew may have to take a few days off. In order to prevent him from being expelled, he will be eliminated in these few days. Let me take care of the devil’s affairs.”
Although the ability of the eternal demon over there is very strong, it also has its limits. It seems that it is not good to use the ability continuously, so you must take a rest after using it for a period of time. Therefore, the practice of suspending time cannot be completed in an instant. , but it can still shorten the time a lot.
Linton didn't want to waste time, so he just happened to be able to kill some monsters casually these days to earn some points. I heard that there are more demons appearing in the city these days. Some of the weaker demons have been dealt with by the folk demon hunters. Those are all bonuses. The more difficult ones are naturally assigned to the special class. .
Of course, the ones they think are more difficult, Linton thinks, are the ones with 20,000-30,000 points. After all, the bat last time was also a relatively strong demon in Ji Ye and his group's opinion, and it could not be dealt with by civilian demon hunters. . Although the score is small, it can still fill the gap a little bit.
"That's really reliable. I'll leave it to you." Makima didn't mean to say more, but asked another question, "You just said that the person the demon seems to be targeting this time is Denji?"
"Yes." Ji Ye nodded, "About this matter..."
In the middle of Jiye's words, he looked directly at Linton next to him. Makima also followed Jiye's gaze and looked towards Linton, because Jiye seemed to think that Linton should do this part.
"I asked the demon." Linton continued. Yes, the eternal demon here is quite cooperative. Of course, there is no way not to cooperate. After all, the heart is in Linton's hands. How can this be unworthy? , "According to him, the reason why Denci is targeted is because of his heart."
"The heart that was fused with the devil?" Makima asked.
"According to him, he once heard that sound in hell, which was the sound of pulling the pull ring when the chainsaw was started." Linton said, "But it seems that he didn't know the specific situation very well. He just wanted to get it. Study the heart of Denci. ”
"Sounds from hell?" Makima touched her chin, looking like she was thinking. Of course, Linton actually knew that this guy had known about it for a long time, and he was pretending to be the same. The encounter between Makima and Denji seemed to be a coincidence, but in fact it was not at all. Makima knew the situation of the Chainsaw Demon clearly and had been eyeing Denji from the beginning.
"I understand. It seems that Denji-kun is being targeted by demons." Makima said, "I will go to Kyoto in a few days. The number of demons here has obviously increased these days. Maybe It’s because of Denci-kun that I need some support. I will discuss this matter with the people in Kyoto.”
"I understand." Ji Ye nodded.
After the report, Jiye and Linton continued to complete other tasks. There have been a lot of demons lately, and it's impossible to take a break. Some simple demons can be handled by Arai and Higashikata. The more troublesome ones, especially those powerful demons with the flesh of the Gun Demon in their bodies, must be dealt with by someone at the level of a captain like Himeno. , of course Linton followed Ji Ye, after all, the score was slightly higher.
"Miss Makima seems to know something about Denji." On the way to the mission, Himeno suddenly started talking about what happened just now. It was obvious that Himeno's mind was pretty good, and he was aware of the previous conversation. It's not right.
"It looks like that." Linton nodded, "But that's none of my business. Denci is not my nephew. He doesn't care what he likes."
"Isn't Mr. Linton guiding Denji?" Himeno said, "It seems that Mr. Linton also knows something about this matter."
"Am I a guide?" Linton spread his hands, "I just twisted him dozens of times. If this can improve him, then I will consider him a good person, okay?"
"Mr. Linton, don't you have any thoughts about Miss Makima?" Jiye suddenly asked about Makima again.
"Are you curious or gossiping?" Linton asked.
"Both." Ji Ye said with a smile.
"I don't have any ideas. If I have to say it, it's more interesting to see her struggling." Linton said with a smile.
"..." Ji Ye was obviously stunned, "This is the first time I heard someone say that." "You have to watch the road when driving." Linton pointed to the front and said.
"What about me?" Ji Ye suddenly said again.
"Huh?" Linton was stunned for a moment.
"Is Mr. Linton prepared to let go of the demon in the Morino Hotel?" Himeno asked.
"What do you think?" Linton said with a smile, "Devils must abide by the contract. We are not demons, we are humans, and humans can lie."
How could Linton let the Eternal Demon go? Although he had previously promised to spare his life if he cooperated, this guy probably had more points than those trash demons. Of course, Linton couldn't let him go. Originally, the devil would not die. Even if it was killed, it would just return to hell. Linton didn't mark the opponent and went to hell to chase it, so he let it go.
Ji Ye was not surprised by Linton's answer, he had already thought of it. She also had no favorable impression of the devil at all, so she had no objection at all to Linton deceiving the devil. Smiling, Ji Ye continued: "As I said before, whoever kills the devil will be given a kiss by me. Don't you want Mr. Linton?"
"I don't want it, I'm not interested, farewell." Linton waved and said, not jokingly, not interested, but really not interested, because Ji Ye is most famous for this kiss in the original work, the legendary kiss that smelled like vomit, almost... This caused the protagonist Denji to have a psychological shadow, "By the way, let my nephew collect the rewards or something on his behalf."
"Huh? Qiujun collects it on your behalf?" Ji Ye said, the car he was driving shook.
"Do you like my nephew?" Linton asked.
"That's not the case, hahaha..." Ji Ye said with a smile.
"But the wavering is obvious." Linton said, "Is it okay? My nephew has been trained like a dog by Makima. Do any women like this?"
"Does anyone else talk about their nephew like this?" Ji Ye said.
"If you are angry and don't fight, you deserve to die miserably." Linton said.
"Death?" Ji Ye asked, "Qiujun...will he be in danger?"
"There's no danger. I guess he can only live for a few years." Linton said, "What a troublesome nephew."
Himeno was silent for a moment and suddenly said: "I don't want to see my partner die again. If something like that really happens..."
"Okay, okay, I'm still here, aren't I?" Linton spread his hands and said, "With me watching, it would be quite difficult for him to die. What I'm worried about now is your problem."
"Me?" Ji Ye asked.
"Didn't you realize that you also have a dead look on your face?" Linton said.
"A dead look on his face? Can this be seen?" Ji Ye was a little surprised, "Well... there seems to be an ancient onmyoji in China that can predict a person's fate by looking at their face. Is it that kind of skill? ?”
"I managed to understand it," Linton said. "Yes, that's all you need to understand. You're going to die soon anyway."
"I see." Ji Ye thought for a while and just nodded.
"So I just hate this kind of world. Everyone seems to be tired of living. I feel relieved when I hear that my death is approaching." Linton spread his hands and said, "Death is not a big deal. I Now I am worried about whether my soul can be resurrected if it is eaten by a demon. I have not tried it.”
"Huh? Resurrection?" Ji Ye was stunned for a moment.
"I will find time to test it later. In short, when you are going to die, try to die as normal as possible, and I can try to save you." Linton said, "After all, she is my nephew's wife, and you don't want my nephew to be sad, right? .”
"Well, Mr. Linton, what you said started to go beyond common sense again." Jiye said.
"It's okay, just listen first and I'll make adjustments based on the situation later," Linton said.
