Chapter 73 Mouse Flora Jacob

The yellow-haired Jade looked at the old man with a friendlier look, nodded at him, and then left with his companions.

Old Blue, who successfully applied for 100 pounds of activity funds, still did not get an invitation from other Punishers. After all, he deliberately showed fatigue and old age, which was like a burden to other small teams...

"Hey, just 100 pounds... really..."

Old Blue was a little speechless. Storm, who had thousands of years of history, was so rich, but he was not as generous as Miss Justice... Well, it could only be said that Miss Justice was not experienced enough and had no concept of money.

He returned to the hotel he rented and did not choose to continue staying in the church because he still had to deal with the rat that fell into the "puddle".

Inside the gray fog can, Old Blue sat at the head of the dining table, as if pondering the fate of the gray and white mouse on the table.

Mouse Flora lay on the wooden dining table with lifeless eyes. She could not understand what this place was… gray fog, sun, cross, sea water, dining table, carpet, cement…

Being placed on the dining table...isn't fate already determined...

She closed her eyes decadently. She had previously abandoned her sealed body, her extraordinary characteristics, and everything else, just to save her life, but she was still captured...

Old Blue had no mercy on the mouse demigod, as could be seen from the fact that he acted ruthlessly and without hesitation.

But... he had already killed this demigod once... indeed, once.

This is also worthy of Hazel, and worthy of my cooking...

After all, the mouse demigod offended Hazel, Dwayne Dantès. For those things, he had taken her life without hesitation, which was already the limit...

Old Blue claims that he has no moral quirks. He is not a good person, but he is not a person without bottom line either...

"Tell me about your story." Old Blue decided to leave its fate to itself and kill it if it told a lie.

"Hmm?" The gray-white mouse's eyes suddenly lit up. It quickly got up, crouched on the table, and said in a pleading voice:
"Thank you, Your Excellency!

"My name is Flora Jacob, and I am a member of the ancient Jacob family branch. Um... do you know the Jacob family?"

The gray-white mouse saw the mysterious old man in front of him with a smile on his face. He shuddered suddenly and said in an almost shrill voice:

"I'm sorry, sir! I shouldn't have tested you!

"My family has been separated into small, unconnected families to avoid a terrible enemy. I am the last one left in our family...

"Please let me go! I can offer you the secret treasure recorded in my family. It's in Backlund! I came to Backlund to open the treasure and increase my strength...

"But I didn't expect to be beaten and sealed in the sewer here..."

Seal? Why is this word so strange...

Old Blue asked without changing his expression:

"Who sealed you? What power did they use?"

"Ah?" Gray Mouse didn't expect that the old man was not interested in the treasure she was talking about, but asked this question instead. She thought for a while and said:

"I'm not sure... I didn't even see the strong man clearly..."

Old Blue was a little confused, with a lot of thoughts in his mind:

"In Backlund, the one who was able to subdue the Parasite in its prime so quickly, well, not in its prime, the knowledge she obtained was incomplete... She didn't kill him, she just sealed him...

"At least it's Sequence 3. It won't be Storm. Storm will kill it directly. Night? Mechanical?
"No, that's not right. It's not the church. The church should have sealed Jacob...

"Adam... the royal family... the goddess... the little snake... Bernadette? Or, some alien force?
"Fuck, Backlund is really dangerous..."

Flora Jacob watched the old man fall into deep thought, and the gray fog rolled around him. The dark sea water was about to rise. She immediately felt a little desperate. She didn't expect Backlund to be so dangerous... Old Blue felt that the little puddle had thoughtfully isolated him from all possible attention. He felt a little emotional. Except for the first time when the little puddle almost drowned him, it was still quite smart afterwards... He then asked:

"You have two souls?"

I ask this because the one that Old Blue Shepherd was herding clearly had a soul... and the mouse clearly had another one in it.

Flora the mouse seemed to recall the hungry and evil scene, and replied with some fear:

“Yes, that was… my brother. In the past, he tried to… I… killed him, and that’s how I became a Beyonder… Woo woo, I really, this journey has been so difficult…”

Old Blue took a deep look at the mouse. The little sun in the sky was still shining. With his demigod-level "notary" ability, he could conclude that, for the time being, the mouse was not lying. He looked serious and asked earnestly:

"Hazel, you tempted her to save you, are you going to eat her?"

Flora the mouse trembled violently. She knew that this question could determine her life or death... and she could never lie. She hesitated for a long time until a small laser gun flew in front of her. She said dejectedly:

"I don't know, I really don't know... I think she is very similar to me. She used to be carefree, full of desire and fantasy for the extraordinary world."

"I gave her the potion formula, and I tried to teach her... but there are some things I don't understand myself...

"I, I don't know if there will come a day when I will parasitize on her and take away everything from her...

"I think I might, because I envy her and I'm jealous of her."

Silence fell on the blood-stained dining table.

With a soft sigh and a soft sound, the light gun turned into points of light and returned to the little sun.

“Real and effective.

"At least, what you are saying now is the truth.

“I killed you once, well, let’s just take it as it is.

“Otherwise, there are things you haven’t done yet, and I can’t treat them as if you have done them.

"Under my 'notarization' ability, you cannot disclose everything you saw today.

"That's it. I'll spend the rest of my life as a Sequence 9 Extraordinary Rat."

Flora the mouse was first in disbelief, then in surprise, and then in fear. The rapid change of emotions was fully reflected on the face of a mouse. She crawled on the dining table, trying to get closer, and said in a pleading tone:
"Great, merciful sir! I, I can't live as a mouse... Please, please let me stay by your side and serve you... I, I..."

"..."

"Hmm? Serve?"

Old Blue stroked his chin and weighed the issue carefully for a while. "That's a good idea..."

He already had a way to deal with the rat in front of him...

If you don't need to be served, then just leave it to me to cook for you! Well, serve me and cook for me!

It just so happens that they are short of a maid for odd jobs... Hmm? It seems that it is too late, the Moretti family will soon hire a "cook maid"...

Then we still need a housekeeper! Yes, when the Moretti family becomes prosperous, they will definitely need a housekeeper!

Hey, old Bruce, you are such a devout believer, a good believer who always considers me!

With a splash, the illusory sea water rose. The next moment, a man and a mouse disappeared. Inside the can of gray fog, above the puddle, and on the dining table of old Bruce's family, everything returned to calm again. Only the gray fog kept rolling. The sun continued to emit blazing light, and the black cross swayed gently.
