Chapter 66
The neighbor looked as if he was just saying some polite words to someone he knew but was not very familiar with.
Green hesitated.
He did not want to go to a private room with his neighbor to talk, because he felt that there was no need for him and his neighbor to talk alone.
And he would ask the police to send his neighbor to some other place and never see him again.
There was no reason for him to be alone with his neighbor before the police arrived, that would put himself in danger.
Even if the neighbor did not want to attack him when they were alone, it would be very delicate for him to hand his neighbor over to the police after being alone with him.
After hesitating, he planned to refuse, but the neighbor had already seen his intention from his hesitation and laughed in advance.
"Are you worried that I will do something to you? I didn't bring anything with me. You don't have to worry about that happening.
There are people everywhere here, and even if I really did something to you, I can't escape. There is no need for me to put myself in danger. That's what a fool would do.
You can be with the person next to you. Even if you can't resist my sudden attack, the person next to you will stop me, and this will ensure your safety. How about it?
I just want to talk to you about something that is not convenient to talk about in a crowd. Please give me this chance, I won't hurt you."
The neighbor spoke sincerely.
Green was dazzled by his expression and almost believed him. He stood up, pulled the shoggoth next to him, and smiled at the neighbor: "Excuse me, I want to ask his opinion."
The neighbor nodded and said: "That's what I should do. I'll wait for you here. I hope to solve this matter as soon as possible. I will feel relieved after the matter is solved. You can also feel relieved."
Shoggoth pulled Green to the side.
"Although I don't agree with this kind of behavior of gossiping behind others' backs, if you are worried that he will attack you, you don't have to go."
Shoggoth whispered.
"He doesn't look malicious, and I want to believe him.
However, I'm not sure he won't attack me, so I'd like you to come with me.
With you protecting me, I'll be safe no matter what he does.
I know your abilities are stronger than they think.
If I get hurt by him in front of you, it can only be because you hate me.
Do you hate me?"
Green asked.
"I've never hated you, otherwise, I wouldn't have gone home with you in the first place."
Shoggoth whispered.
"That's great.
I'll tell him now that I agree to talk to him alone in a room. However, just in case, I remember that a surveillance camera has recently been installed in one of the rooms.
I think we can go to that room to talk.
You can also turn on the recording on your phone.
I gave you a phone a while ago."
Green looked at Shoggoth and said.
Shoggoth nodded and agreed to everything.
Green was very happy, and he took Shoggoth and turned to find the neighbor, explaining the result of the discussion. The neighbor was also very happy, smiled at them, and asked them to lead the way to the room.
Green nodded.
Shoggoth walked in front, Green walked beside Shoggoth, and the neighbor walked at the end. He put his hand behind him and touched a roughly sewn compartment in his clothes pocket.
In that compartment was the knife he had hidden, which he had taken from Green's house.
It was a fruit knife without a sheath.
When they got to the room, Green didn't even plan to close the door, but the neighbor walked at the end, so he closed the door.
The three of them stood in the same room. Green smiled at his neighbor: "Now you can tell me everything you want to say. There is no one else here."
The neighbor looked at Shoggoth and smiled awkwardly: "Excuse me, please turn around."
Shoggoth pulled Green's sleeve and turned around.
The neighbor approached Green and whispered: "I don't want him to hear what I say. I want to get closer. You should not mind lowering your head and letting me talk in your ear, right?" Green
said he didn't mind.
The neighbor approached Green, took out a knife, and wanted to stab Green again, but this time he would not stab the non-lethal part, he wanted to stab Green's neck.
As soon as his knife was taken out, Green was blinded by the light of the knife. He squinted and smiled. The neighbor didn't know why he smiled, but he suddenly felt a little panicked.
Shoggoth turned around and punched the neighbor in the face.
The neighbor was caught off guard and fell to the ground. He didn't realize what happened yet. He was confused and opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he was knocked unconscious by another punch.
Shoggoth kicked the knife out of the neighbor's hand and clapped his hands.
"I wonder if you will be locked up for doing this?"
Green looked at him and said.
Shoggoth grabbed Green, opened the door with one hand, led him out, and locked the door again.
"I won't be happy to be locked up."
Shoggoth replied.
"They arrest people regardless of whether they are happy or not, and does your answer mean that they can't catch you as long as you are not happy? Then what should I do?"
Green blinked and asked him with a smile.
"I don't want to, they really can't catch me.
As for you, as long as they are still in their heads, they will not catch you to replace me.
If you don't mind, you can stay with me all the time, I will protect you, just like this time and last time, and before."
Shoggoth replied.
"Then why can't they catch you?"
Green asked.
"Because before the aura fully recovered, I had contact with them, but it was just a long-distance communication with their specialized related departments without meeting in person.
So far the exchange has been peaceful.
If they don't want to anger me, there's no need to dwell on this matter. Besides, we weren't even being unreasonable this time; we were just fighting back in time.
If your neighbor didn't attack you, I wouldn't have needed to knock him out and then lock him in the house.
The whole process, whether it's on the Internet or in the surveillance camera footage, proves that I wasn't going too far.
As long as the people who come over don't take sides, we can get along peacefully. I don't think our luck is that bad."
Shoggoth answered.
He looked like he wanted to tell him everything he knew.
Green became more and more curious.
"If they don't want to anger you, does that mean there's something about you that makes them jealous? "
Green asked with his eyes wide open.
"I can't say that I am the strongest among all the creatures in the world that have been impacted by the revival of aura, but I am at least stronger than 90% of them.
Because I came into contact with aura, adapted to aura, and used aura earlier than them. The fact that I was able to change into this form in the first place, communicate with you normally, and make you wake up early are all proofs.
In addition, there is one more thing I haven't told you before.
Since you asked it now, I'll tell you all at once.
I have an ability to command.
This ability allows me to control other creatures by using aura and spiritual power.
If I don't use this ability deliberately, I can usually have a stronger, non-power influence than others.
To put it in a more understandable and simple way, I am a natural leader. I already had a large number of followers who completely surrounded me before the full revival of aura.
For the sake of those followers, ordinary people will not necessarily go against me."
Shoggoth explained to Green seriously.
"Who are those people who followed you?"
Green asked.
"Before the full recovery of aura, among those followers, there were only various plants and animals that had self-awareness and independent choices because of aura. After the full
recovery of aura, there were already some humans among those followers."
Shoggoth answered every detail.
"You told me so clearly, are you planning to kill me later?"
Green asked jokingly with his eyes wide open.
"Of course not, if I wanted to kill you, I would not save you when you were stabbed so many times. Even if I saved you, I could just watch you in the hospital and wait for you to die.
You should know that without my ability, you would not live long. "
Shoggoth raised his eyebrows and said.
"Although this is true, it's really sad to hear you say it like that, as if there is no relationship between us at all."
Green pretended to be sad and sighed.
"If there is no relationship between us at all, I would not save you at all. You have to know that you are my only master in the world. And you are my only master.
What kind of relationship do you want from me?"
Shoggoth asked.
"It's just a joke, don't mind it so much."
Green pushed him and smiled.
"I can not mind, but I always feel that you are worried about something. Can't even tell me? Or do you want to wait until some time?"
Shoggoth stared at him and asked.
"Is the recording on the mobile phone turned off?"
Green asked suddenly.
"It's turned off. It was turned off after he finished speaking. If you are still worried that there is not enough evidence, you can show all the videos recorded by the surveillance cameras to everyone.
They will definitely stand on your side if there is nothing wrong with their brains and they don't particularly dislike you."
Shoggoth took out his cell phone and showed it to him.
He took a look and nodded.
"Well, I'll tell you while there are not many people around."
Green lowered his head, not daring to look him in the eye, and spoke in a very low voice.
"What is so important?"
Shoggoth didn't care.
"I have something I want to ask you for help. If you are strong enough in the future, I would like to borrow all your strength to help me. Will you agree to it?"
Green asked him.
"Of course. You took me in for a while when I was desperate, and I am very grateful for your care.
If you need help, I will do my best to help you. "
Shugs nodded.
