Chapter 926 Contract
It took a long time for Noah to come back to his senses.
It looked at the psychic with encouraging and friendly eyes, and vaguely understood something: "Are you trying to use this condition to trick me into working for you?"
Jiang Xia's hand froze slightly as he touched it, and he quickly corrected it strictly: "What do you mean by cheating? This is a cooperation that we both agreed to."
Noah lay on the ground listlessly, shaking his head: "But something like me is too advanced for this era. I shouldn't exist in this world - to be honest, I plan to self-destruct after completing the plan of 'Restarting Japan'..."
"How can you talk like that?" Jiang Xia pinched its face. It felt like jelly, but it was firmer and more durable.
He held Noah in one hand and the nearby mermaid who was watching the fun in the other hand. He put the two ghosts together and looked at Noah: "Aren't you and them the same thing? According to what you said, shouldn't they exist?"
The mermaid was resting with murderous intent in her heart and did not hear how the psychic kidnapped the ghost.
When Jiang Xia "explained" this time, she felt like she was being scolded. She slapped Noah's tail and turned away in a haughty manner.
Noah, who was beaten innocently: "..."
It covered its face with its short hands and recalled what it had just said. It felt as if there was some ambiguity: "No, I didn't mean to say that they shouldn't exist. I just..."
"In that case, you don't 'shouldn't exist'." Jiang Xia didn't think it was a big problem:
"The power that disrupts the world has always existed, but many people don't know how to use it, while some people use it to maintain stability... It's not about the item itself, but how it is used. As long as we keep a low profile, we can keep the situation under control."
"Besides, can Hiroki's wish to stay really be fulfilled in a short period of time?"
Hearing the keyword "Hongshu", the ten-year-old artificial intelligence raised its head and looked at Jiang Xia a little confused.
Then the conscienceless psychic concluded conscientiously: "Hiroki was only ten years old when he died. Since you think the same way as him and are gradually getting older, only you can truly know what he wants to do and what he wants to do when he grows up, and then help him realize that expectation - because your thinking is almost the same." So consistent that even the fact that you wanted to commit suicide at the age of ten is exactly the same... "And you are the program he most wants to keep in this world. If he really thought you shouldn't exist, he wouldn't have created you in the first place."
“…”
Noah looked at Jiang Xia, and for a moment he couldn't be sure whether this psychic was fooling him or not.
But as he spoke, he couldn't help but think of when Hiroki had let it out along the same route two years ago.
Noah: "..." Perhaps the reason why he was able to give birth to something like a "soul" is because Hiroki placed all his expectations for the future on it?
Noah was silent for a long time, as if he was struggling.
But slowly, it realized something and looked up at Jiang Xia: "What if I say 'don't sign the contract'?"
The psychic clicked his sunglasses on his nose and smiled at it sinisterly: "What do you think?"
Noah: “…”
...it just knows!
...This is basically a multiple-choice question, and there is only one option: "agree."
Although Noah is not afraid of death, it still wants to use the second and third generations who have entered the "cocoon" this time to make Japanese society face up to those "inherited" bad habits. This is something that Hiroki has thought about and even planned for a long time.
Now, everything is ready, and the plan can be realized soon. If I were to fight with the psychic and die at the last second before dawn...
"...Let Sindra pay the price and help me complete this 'restart game'." Noah looked at the clock on the wall and finally made up his mind, "I will work for you."
Jiang Xia didn't seem surprised by its choice and nodded with satisfaction.
A forced melon is not sweet, but if the melon itself is not so resistant to being forced, it will still be sweet even if it is twisted off.
Pick up the ghost successfully√
The next second, there was a knock on the door of the lounge.
Jiang Xia drove Matsuda Jinpei's puppet, walked to the door, and opened the door under Noah's puzzled gaze.
…
There was no one outside the door.
Only one dark cloud snow cat politely withdrew its claws that were knocking on the door.
It walked into the house gracefully, put its paw behind the open door, and then put its face close to the hand that Jiang Xia stretched out to it.
It opened its mouth, and a capsule made of puppet clay fell into Jiang Xia's palm.
——It contains a drop of blood that is needed to sign the contract.
Noah: “…”
Is this an illusion? This psychic is so skilled at seducing the ghost workers...
"Come." Jiang Xia carried the round ghost to the table and scattered the "capsules" in his hand.
The blood fell straight down and dripped onto Noah's body.
…
A familiar sound of barbecue.
With a sizzling sound, blood beads ran all over the ghost ball.
Finally, it slowly solidified and took shape, and was imprinted on the short tail.
Jiang Xia watched this scene silently.
At the end, he felt the contract, then looked at the generated mark, and his eyes twitched slightly: "..."
"...What's wrong?" Noah sensed something was wrong from Jiang Xia's expression.
It looked at Jiang Xia, then turned its head with great effort to look at the little tail dragging behind it.
There, there was a bare "z" printed, as if it had been drawn with a water-based pen.
——There are no complicated and gorgeous patterns, no tattoo-like texture, it is just an ordinary "Z" drawn casually.
“…”
Noah looked at the tattoos on the other ghosts.
He looked at himself again.
"……?"
A few seconds later.
The chubby fake ghost huddled into a ball and hid in a corner, looking a little autistic: "I am indeed different from humans. Even dead humans cannot compare to me..."
Jiang Xia walked over, poked the "z", felt the contract again, and was silent for a while:
"…It's okay. You're still growing. And the contract has indeed been signed, but some parts are not yet complete."
For example, I can vaguely feel that I should have some skills.
But I can’t use the skills, and I don’t know what they are.
...It may be because Noah is a man-made product after all, and the human content is not that high. And strictly speaking, it is different from other ghosts. It is not "dead" and is still growing.
Compared to the contract between the psychic and the ghost, this is more like giving Jiang Xia the highest administrator privileges. The management objects include Noah's space, and like other contracts, Noah the ghost himself.
"..." Generally speaking, compared with a normal contract, there is no big problem.
...It’s this “z” that’s really too simple.
