Chapter 1074: Magic

It was 4:37 am. There weren’t many cars on the street, and there weren’t many pedestrians. Zhang Heng and Fan inan were the only two custors in the convenience store. anwhile, the male shop assistant had put on his headphones and was gaming on his mobile.

The whole city fell silent as if fallen into a deep sleep.

“What about your illness?”Zhang Heng finished the coke in his hand and put the empty aluminum can aside. “You want to beco Rocky’s agent because you hope he can cure you, right?”

“I have a very rare illness. Back then, just to find out the cause, my parents took

all over the country and spent almost all of my family’s savings. During that ti, every ti I opened my eyes, I could see my father’s serious face and my mother secretly wiping away tears.”

“You always look unhappy (# ‘o’). This must be the origin of your WeChat handle, right?” Zhang Heng thought of sothing and raised his eyebrows.

“That’s right. After the diagnosis, I found out that my illness could not be cured with current dical technology. Furthermore, subsequent treatnt would be very high on the expenses. In addition, my brother is still in school, so there are many things for my family to spend money on. I don’t want to beco a burden to my family and drag down the people I care about the most. Therefore, I ran away from ho with this thought in mind.”

“At that ti, I had not yet co into contact with the world we are in now, so I did not have any extravagant hopes for treatnt,” Fan inan said. “I just wanted to like as far as I could from the city where I could live as freely possible and spend the rest of my days alone in peace. I also bought the ticket casually, so it was purely a coincidence that I ca here.

“Moreover, I almost ran out of money a few days after I ca here, but my luck was not bad. Before my last penny was spent, I happened to find a job in a restaurant that provided food and accommodation. I was mainly responsible for the cashier and the invoice. From then on, my life gradually stabilized. Of course, I didn’t have the money to continue the treatnt. Sotis, I would lie in the dormitory and wonder if I would die quietly in a strange city alone or if there was a worse situation. Before that, I would gradually lose the ability to move and be unable to work to support myself.

“To prevent getting sent to the hospital for resuscitation and soone contacting my family, I made a decision. If it really ca to this, I would end myself first. “However, making up my mind to die and facing death head-on are two completely different things. Even if I had prepared everything and imagined the worst-case scenario, I still couldn’t completely accept the fact that I was going to die.

“That feeling was like soone had placed a clock in my body, and a countdown clock was continuously ticking. I knew that it would one day return to zero, but I didn’t know when that would happen. It just kept on ticking away. As ti passed, I couldn’t get used to nor accept it. Instead, I beca even more afraid. There was a ti when I was in a poor ntal state, and I couldn’t sleep at night. Occasionally, I would have nightmares when I fell asleep.

“As a result, my working condition during the day beca worse. I made a few miscalculations, got verbal warnings from the boss, and even lost my salary. That’s when she found .”

“Your sister who was taken away from you when you were a child? Yes, I rember you saying about the telepathic connection you have had between you since young,” Zhang Heng said.

“That’s right. One day, she ca to find . However, at that ti, I didn’t know her identity. I even thought that my illness had affected my brain and that I was hallucinating. She walked into the restaurant where I worked and booked the largest private room for herself. Then, she ordered every single dish on the nu. The boss was alard and suspected that she was here to cause trouble. However, she imdiately took out her credit card and paid for all the als in advance.

“The boss imdiately put on a different expression and urged the kitchen to cook for her. She even pushed back the dishes for the other guests. Then, she went up to her and asked if she had any additional instructions. In the end, she pointed at

and asked

to eat with her. I wanted to say that I was just a cashier, but the boss quickly pushed

into her private room. After everyone left, she told

that she would perform a magic trick for

next.

“I asked her what the trick was, but she didn’t want to continue. She just gave

an address and told

to go there after work. She also told

that she knew that I was already on Death’s list and that once I was on that list, I wouldn’t be able to co down again, but she also said that there was a great existence in the world that could fool everyone, even death. After saying that, she didn’t answer any of my questions. She only told

that we had about 20 minutes to eat.

“After 20 minutes, she used the excuse of going to the bathroom and never ca back. After another 10 minutes, the boss realized that sothing was wrong. He searched the entire restaurant but couldn’t find her. After that, the boss realized that the money he had received for the al was also missing. He was outraged and imdiately called the police. I also went to make a statent, but I hid the address that she gave .”

“Did you see him after that?”

“Who? My sister?”

“No, I’m talking about Loki.”

“I don’t know. According to Norse mythology, he can transform into anything. I’ve never seen his true face. The day we first t, I saw a Scottish fold. It didn’t speak, mainly because my sister spoke. After that, it gave

a contract for a trial period and a night to think it over. “But considering my situation at the ti, I didn’t have much room to think. As long as there was a way to cheat death, no matter how slim the chance was, I had to try. So I accepted the contract and beca his agent like my sister. But now, I’ve ruined everything.”

Fan inan drank a mouthful of juice and looked out the window at the street. A little black cat had just entered the green belt, “Actually, I knew from the beginning that I wouldn’t be a match for my sister. She’s more like Loki. She’s as cunning and cold as he is, and she can manipulate her target without realizing it. Loki will undoubtedly admire her more. After becoming Loki’s agent, she did a lot of big things, especially during the auction. She fooled the three major guilds and the Chamber of Comrce that participated in the auction.

“In comparison, everything I’ve done can only be considered a small matter. I’ve also taken a lot of bla for so unknown reason. So, this ti, I can be considered to have lost wholeheartedly. There’s nothing to complain about. “You don’t have to feel guilty or touched. Even if I had made up my mind to grit my teeth and kill you, I probably wouldn’t have been a match for you. Moreover, my sister’s side might have already completed the test long ago. Now that I think about it, I don’t have much of a chance of winning from the start.”
