Chapter 104 Dream Point

Chen Yan closed the door and returned to the restaurant.

I only went out to say a few words, and the sky was almost completely dark.

The street lights have not yet turned on, and there are not too many pedestrians on Walker Street.

The winter season in the empire allows normal office workers to get off work before five o'clock. By this time, it has passed the peak period of getting off work, and the ground flattened by workers commuting to get off work has been covered with new snow.

The new snow was dyed into small patches of light yellow by the dim kerosene lights escaping from the houses on both sides of the street. In the darkness before the street lights came on, it spread to the end of the street within sight, forming a unique scene on the narrow street of Walker Street.

night view.

Chen Yan entered the restaurant where the kerosene lights were turned on again and whispered:

"It's the Sheriff of Walker Street."

Ogami stuffed the last piece of baked potato into his mouth and said in a determined tone: "That person has no intention of killing you."

Chen Yan was not surprised by this.

Ogami chewed twice, swallowed the baked potato, and then added:

"I have met him before. He is similar to those people in the Lower City, but not to their level, so I did not attack him."

Chen Yan digested this sentence for a while, then quickly suffered from indigestion: "I don't quite understand."

Ogami patiently explained:

"They call themselves extraordinary."

"According to the purity of blood, the person outside the door just now is considered to be half a transcendent."

Chen Yan's eyes lit up and he blurted out: "He is actually a virgin."

This time it was Ogami's turn to suffer from indigestion: "This title is simply..."

Chen Yan explained: "Most of the extraordinary beings in the empire have their own gods of belief, and they call those who [prayed to the gods but did not receive the blood of the gods] as 'virgins'."

Ogami nodded: "Is that so? It's really vulgar."

Chen Yan leaned on the dining table and thought deeply:

"Officer Klein has also started canvassing votes. This is really incredible. Isn't he busy enough with the affairs of the street police department? Why should he get involved in government affairs? I think it's not just because of the so-called [motivation]."

Based on the knowledge he learned about the general election, he explained the administrative system of the empire to Ogami, and by the way explained the popular agreement between extraordinary beings: [No-War Pact].

All this successfully aroused Ogami's interest.

"The empire's electoral system sounds very fair."

Chen Yan responded: "Yes, it sounds fair, but in fact it does not work. Most of the people in the empire are uneducated and cannot even write their own names, so it is easy to waste their votes."

Ogami’s summary hit the nail on the head: “But this system is still useful – under the constraints of the [no-war covenant] you just mentioned, the empire’s political system is not only applicable to mortals, but also has certain binding force on extraordinary people.

.”

Chen Yan nodded: "I think this is the reason why that group of extraordinary people gathered in Xiacheng District yesterday afternoon: they wanted to gather votes."

"A few dozens of ballots are of little use. Only when the votes of a whole group are gathered together can they be effective."

This is the case for the Asian community.

"But what exactly they want to do with these votes, I don't know."

Ogami's voice was steady, with a thoughtful look in her eyes: "I see... Landlady, can you grant me a request?"

Chen Yan nodded: "If I can do it, I will try my best."

Ogami said: "If you see someone who will not die, please tell me."

People who cannot die...are they [immortals]?

That name immediately appeared in Chen Yan's mind.

Jack Bardo.

This guy magically appeared in Chen Yan's field of vision again, giving Chen Yan a strange premonition - he had a premonition that all this was not a coincidence.

He also realized another thing: Ogami went to the Lower City yesterday, perhaps because he captured the traces of Jack Baldo.

Ogami's mission is to "cut off the immortal", but he also clearly expressed his meaning: killing is only a means, not an end.

So, for him, simply killing an [Immortal] is actually of no use.

What does Ogami mean by "cutting off the immortal"?

Chen Yan couldn't figure out this problem for the moment.

He said goodbye to Ogami, went to the bathroom on the second floor, and then returned to the bedroom.

Pull out the camera from under the bed, put it on a clothes hanger, cover it up with clothes, aim the camera at the bed, then turn on the camera switch and set it to recording mode.

Although he was not busy today, he felt that his body was very sleepy.

The wind and snow were howling outside the window, and the street lights were still not on. The expensive heating ensured that the temperature in the entire apartment was kept above 20 degrees Celsius. This temperature was enough to allow the people in the apartment to spend a warm and snowy night.

Lying on the bed, Chen Yan quickly fell asleep.

The hour hand of the clock on the wall turned silently, and it was already midnight without noticing. Most of the street lights on Walker Street had been on for several hours, and most of the houses on both sides of the street had turned off their lights.

Outside the apartment at No. 33 Walker Street, under the street lights that had never been repaired, with the lights constantly flickering on and off, at some point, a figure wearing white high heels appeared again.

She didn't know where she came from, and she didn't know how long she had been waiting. She just waited there quietly, not afraid of the wind and snow.

In the direction of the city center, the bell of the Moon Clock Tower strikes midnight.

As if she had received some kind of signal, she climbed up the invisible stairs and entered the apartment building at No. 33 Walker Street through the window.

She came to Chen Yan's bedside, covering her stomach with her left hand, and placed her right hand on Chen Yan's forehead.

She felt the hotness in the palm of her right hand and realized something was wrong, so she frowned. The silver-white lying silkworms illuminated her blue pupils like silver light under the moonlight.

She hesitated for a moment, got into Chen Yan's bed, hugged his waist, and pressed her forehead against his.

The next moment the girl's eyes closed under her long white eyelashes, the pendulum of the clock in the bedroom stopped swinging.

…

…

Chen Yan looked blankly at the sea in front of him, only to see that the end of the sea level had become dim and unclear, a large layer of clouds blocked the sun, and the roaring waves blocked the direction of the ferry.

'How come... I'm back on the boat again.'

He was not awake in the dream. He was as hazy as a normal person dreaming, and did not know that he was in a dream.

He stood on the deck of the ferry and felt very cold, as if his whole body had lost its temperature.

His unconscious consciousness could not feel that this coldness did not only come from the environment, but more from the spirit——

The coldness from the spiritual level enveloped him, making him feel like he was the only one left in the world.
