The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 243: Amos in another world line


"Player Super Justice ()"

"Are you awake, Elle?"

A somewhat familiar voice came from beside "Ai Lei".

Annan immediately noticed that Ailei was under the quilt.

So he did not directly open the quilt and sit up, but shrank inside again, and at the same time opened his eyes and listened.

That was Amos.

A young man in his early thirties, with short brown hair and dark blue pupils. He was carefully stroking his beard in front of the mirror with an electric razor. When he heard Ai Lei making a sound, he stopped the razor.

Amos turned around and looked over with a relaxed and happy smile.

——That is a completely different look from Amos in Gallery Nightmare.

The painter Amos in the nightmare is filled with an aura that is incomprehensible to strangers. Even when facing his daughter Ai Lei, he didn't have anything nice to say. Instead, he sighed repeatedly, his expression was painful and tangled, his face was covered with stubble and his hair was messy... He felt very sad.

But now, Amos is not only smiling, but also has a very fashionable hairstyle, and is even humming a ditty happily.

That seems to be an opera excerpt that I heard recently. I even forgot the lyrics completely, so I could only hum randomly without any sound. But this alone shows that he is in a very happy mood.

"Don't stay up late, Ai Lei. Your schedule is too unhealthy."

Amos finished shaving, and while slapping lotion on his face, he walked over, stood in front of the huddled quilt and said dissatisfiedly: "If you want to watch animation at 8:30 in the morning, then you might as well come earlier. Go to sleep.

"That's eight-thirty, not six-thirty or five-thirty. It's the same if you go to bed early and get up early, eat breakfast and then watch... Are you listening, Ai Lei?"

"Oh..."

"Ai Lei" huddled under the quilt, making vague sleepy sounds and not responding directly.

Amos sighed helplessly, but did not get angry.

He just told me: "Your mother's world tour ended yesterday. She said she would be home tonight... I have to go on a business trip and I won't be back until two or three days. If you don't sleep well tonight, It’s too early, so don’t go out and stay at home to listen to the door.

"She should be back around midnight...did you hear that?"

"Woo."

The quilt made a low whine.

"Then I'll just assume you heard it?"

Amos also smiled in a good-natured way, patted the huddled up quilt, and said briskly: "I'll bring you a gift when I come back... I'll bring you something delicious? There are also records... I still want to What do you want?"

"...whatever."

"Randomness is the worst gift to give."

The man thought seriously for a while, as if something suddenly occurred to him: "Ah, I remembered it - you seemed to have mentioned it on your birthday, and asked your father to draw a portrait for you?

"Sorry, actually at that time, I also wanted to draw you. But I was waiting for you at home for a long time that day, and you went out to play. After that, when you came home, I was already on a business trip... I just wanted to Well, since your birthday has already passed, why not wait until the next Yaweng Holy Day to draw you again.

"I think...since it was a portrait painted by your father, there must be emotion in it, and it is a treasure that cannot be copied. I will use the process of painting this painting as a sacrifice to Yaweng, who must be I will definitely be happy. That will be the best sacrifice.

"But if you want it, I'll draw it for you when dad comes back."

Amos smiled gently and patted the quilt that was bulging into a ball: "Compared with Yaweng's award, Ai Lei is indeed more important.

"Okay, I'm going out. Goodbye——"

He said...picking up the suitcase he had already packed and heading towards the door.

After he left for a long time, Ai Lei slowly got out of the quilt.

Her golden hair was fluffy and messy, and there were very clear tear stains on her face.

She cried quietly and silently.

——Although Annan now controls Ailei's body, Ailei can still hear and see.

"Is this your wish, Elle?"

Annan's voice sounded low.

The voice produced by Ai Lei's body was low and soft...as gentle as a mother's.

[...Yes. Sorry...]

"...There is nothing to say sorry for."

[I don’t know either, but that’s what I want to say...and, thank you]

Hearing the pitiful voice in her heart, "Ai Lei" raised her eyebrows.

"What did you say last week?"

[...Amos and I had a fight]

"Why are you arguing with him..."

[I, I also... I don't know... But, suddenly I felt that Amos was back, and I was very panicked... I actually didn't want to argue with him, but I didn't know what to say, my emotions It was very confusing, so... He didn't understand what I meant in the end, but he still apologized to me and left quietly... I, I just...]

In her heart, Ailei's voice was intermittent and gradually filled with tears.

Hey...

Annan sighed deeply.

She is still a little girl.

Because the emotions in her heart are too complicated - joy, panic, love, remembrance, worry... many emotions are intertwined, and Ai Lei lacks sufficient expressive ability, and instead turns into a rootless anger.

"...Rather, the fact that Amos didn't quarrel with you shows that he has a really good temper here."

[Amos actually...he used to have a good temper...]

Ai Lei's weak, slightly aggrieved voice sounded from the bottom of her heart.

[But after his progress suddenly stopped, he gradually became irritable... He was fine with me and my mother, but he became more and more angry with outsiders... and he was looking for trouble for no reason... 】

That's because for the first time, the genius of IndoMTL.com~ encountered a threshold that he couldn't cross with his talent.

But you two, father and daughter, are quite similar - even though they are not related by blood at all.

But at least in terms of starting to find people to quarrel with when my emotions start to get messy...it's really the same thing.

Annan thought for a while and whispered:

"Then you can think about it this way...Since Amos has always had a good temper and good talents before, why did he suddenly encounter the threshold of talent?"

【...Why, why? 】

"Reminiscent of that time, Lord Skeleton had already appeared in the Frozen Water Port - His destination was clear from the beginning. That was the Frozen Water Port where you and Amos were... then, it was Can’t we attribute the reason why Amos’ talent has stagnated to the Skeleton Man?”

【Is there such a reason? Is this true? 】

Of course it's fake.

Without any evidence, just from the superficial connection, the cause is attributed to one point - this is a typical forced cause and effect, which can be called Mouri Kogoro level reasoning.

Annan naturally knows this too.

But so what?

This is the last thing to blame for the blame on Bone Bones anyway... Since he has to die no matter what, then instead of letting Ai Lei, a completely innocent little girl, weep alone for the unfairness of this fate, immersed in Unable to extricate herself from the shadow of the past, it is better to let her understand - this is all the fault of the Bone Man.

Then when Lord Skeleton burps, "The enemy is dead and the great revenge has been avenged"... the shadow that has been lingering in her heart will be released.

This can be regarded as one of the few contributions that the Skeleton Office can make.

And...

Annan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Who can say that this must be "unfounded speculation"?
