Chapter 0123 New York, Nakamura Hiroshi
Although Su Zhan had measured the size with his hands before, seeing it with his own eyes was still very spectacular. That youthful, vibrant aura was Claire's unique charm at her age.
Claire, who had shyly closed her eyes, waited for a long time without Su Zhan making any move. She couldn't help but open her eyes curiously, only to see Su Zhan staring intently at her. In an instant, she hurriedly closed her eyes, as if a fire was burning within her body, making her increasingly hot.
A light breeze passed through the wooden cabin, carrying away the sounds of breathing...
In the quiet jungle, high-pitched hums could be heard from time to time, occasionally startling birds into flight. Some bold birds flew near the wooden cabin, their calls mingling with various other sounds, creating a beautiful symphony.
After an unknown amount of time, the sounds gradually ceased.
"No need to say it, I know you're very satisfied, and I'm very satisfied too!"
Just as Claire was about to speak, Su Zhan chuckled and interrupted her.
"Can you really know what I'm thinking?" Claire asked.
"It's a type of Ability similar to mind-reading, but I've only just acquired it recently and still need to master its control. Right now, I can hear thoughts whether I want to or not," Su Zhan explained.
"Will I... be able to see you again in the future?" Claire didn't speak, but thought this in her heart, looking at Su Zhan.
Su Zhan smiled and said, "Of course you can. Even if I leave this World, you'll still be able to see me."
Claire smiled sweetly and didn't take him seriously, but Su Zhan didn't explain either.
With the fighting arena, he could see Claire anytime. Moreover, just now, the system prompted that Claire's favorability had increased again.
It had increased by eighty percent!
The total favorability had already reached one hundred and seventy-five percent.
One hundred and seventy-five percent, Su Zhan had originally thought one hundred percent was the limit, he didn't expect it could be like this.
With this percentage, there should be a very high success rate to bring her out of this World, right?
Su Zhan currently had no plans to tell her these things. Regarding taking her out of this World, he had another plan.
After Claire's strength recovered, Su Zhan helped her put on her clothes, and then the two of them left the wooden cabin and returned to the car.
After returning to the Town, Claire actively asked Su Zhan to drop her off.
"I... I'm going back," Claire said to Su Zhan, a little reluctantly.
Su Zhan smiled. "Go back, I'm leaving too. Trust me, we'll meet again, and... it won't be too long."
Watching Claire leave, Su Zhan located the Haitian's position and quickly found him. After finding the Haitian, Su Zhan located Sera's position, but the result was somewhat unexpected; Sera had actually left Texas.
"You run quite fast, don't you? Well, I'll let you live a few more days then."
Su Zhan didn't want to waste time chasing Sera; his target was New York!
...
...
New York, a bustling and prosperous metropolis.
Su Zhan flew with the Haitian all the way from Texas to New York. At this moment, they were walking on the bustling streets, surrounded by a constant flow of people. Su Zhan looked around at the buildings with interest, appearing like a tourist or sightseer.
"Although most of the environment is similar, many iconic buildings are gone. There's no Stark Tower, and no Flatiron Building!"
Su Zhan compared it to New York in the Marvel Universe. Although it was the same city, it felt completely different. The people here were more relaxed and leisurely, perhaps because they didn't have that kind of pressure.
After all, aliens wouldn't just appear out of nowhere here.
As they walked, they had already arrived at Times Square.
Tall buildings stood all around, and various billboards and electronic screens were dazzling. There were significantly more people here than in other places, and among them were many yellow-skinned Asians.
Walking towards a nearby bookstall, Su Zhan saw a comic book displayed prominently.
The cover of the comic book showed an Asian man wearing glasses standing in Times Square, looking surprised and excited.
Nakamura Hiroshi!
Su Zhan picked up the comic book and flipped through a few pages, but the black owner of the bookstall said displeasedly, "Hey, this isn't a library!"
Su Zhan didn't look up, and waved his finger behind him.
The Haitian behind him walked over and directly paid the money, and the black owner took the money and immediately shut up.
This comic book wasn't thick; it was finished in a dozen pages, and the content wasn't much. It depicted Nakamura Hiroshi first discovering in Japan that he could reverse time by one second, then telling his friend who didn't believe him. Then, while taking the subway, he time-traveled to New York.
The last panel showed Nakamura Hiroshi using his Ability again, seemingly going somewhere, and then it ended.
"It seems that because of me, the original plot has changed, but... what does the last panel mean? Does he know I want to devour his Ability, so he wants to escape?"
Su Zhan frowned slightly. The content of this comic felt incomplete; there was no middle section at all. Nakamura Hiroshi appeared in New York, then a few panels of surprise and delight, followed immediately by the final scene of him using his Ability to leave.
"Awesome!"
Su Zhan suddenly heard someone shout, it sounded like Japanese? Following the sound, he saw a Japanese man wearing glasses spreading his arms, excitedly shouting 'Hello, New York!'.
Nakamura Hiroshi!
The excited Nakamura Hiroshi shouted and yelled, walking along like an idiot, greeting passersby and shouting, "I love New York."
He didn't know much English, just a few phrases repeated over and over, and finally started speaking in Japanese. Passersby looked at him with strange eyes, but he didn't care at all.
"This guy is really a bit of a goofball!"
Su Zhan originally thought Nakamura Hiroshi was a bit of a goofball, perhaps because he was Japanese? So his way of expressing himself was a bit special? However, he was a chuunibyou teenager, One Heart wanting to save the World.
"Hello."
"Hello."
Nakamura Hiroshi walked along, excitedly greeting people on both sides, but unfortunately no one paid him any attention. When he came next to Su Zhan, he also said hello to Su Zhan, but then suddenly realized Su Zhan was Asian and stopped, then tentatively asked, "Hello, are you... Japanese?"
"You're Japanese, your whole family is Japanese!" Su Zhan didn't expect Nakamura Hiroshi to ask him that, and immediately said displeasedly.
Chapter 0124 Unable to Devour?
Su Zhan spoke in English, and it took Nakamura Hiroshi a long time to understand what the sentence meant. He said earnestly, "Yes, I am Japanese, my whole family is Japanese!"
Watching Nakamura Hiroshi seriously say that his whole family was Japanese, Su Zhan almost broke out in a sweat. Indeed, Japanese people couldn't understand the true meaning of that phrase.
Shaking his head, Su Zhan said, "Nakamura Hiroshi, let's talk somewhere else."
