Chapter 106 - Ears on top

— I get it. It's hard to believe in this, but it's been clear for a long time that the world is crazy.

"You must force yourself on Jack and escort him to Ishtar.

Valmet, winced a little — Can I tell him right away?

Coco sighed — You should, but then you won't be able to impose on him.

A thin smile formed on the Amazon's face— Male pride?

— Not really. — Coco chuckled — Pride, of course, should not be overlooked, but most likely, he will slip away unnoticed, quickly, so as not to risk you because of himself.

— That's right. — Valmet smiled even more, and then hugged herself tightly with her hands — Wow, he's such a soft affectionate caring bear! I want right now, with all my strength, to squeeze in my arms until the bones crack!

Coco grinned—it's hardly possible to call him that now. He's already bigger than you and Chiquita.

— And what? — Valmet broke into a grin — He will still remain a bear for me and Chiquita.

Coco tilted her head to the side with a smile — As you know.

...

"Come with me?" Jack raised his right eyebrow, looking at Valmet

— Yeah. — the girl nodded — I want to walk with you. I have... there is one case, and it is very close to the brothel.

— Hmm ... — Jack frowned a little in thought — "Something is wrong here..."

The story was quite true, the girl could have had business with Ishtar.

Only... he felt some tension in her body, in her facial expressions.

And this hitch...

— good. — with a sigh, Jack nodded, since there was no reason to refuse, just like that

— Great! — Valmet smiled happily, secretly sighing — Just wait for me, I'm going to take a shower.

— Yeah.

As soon as she turned around and walked towards the locker room, Jack's eyes flashed strangely and somewhat ominously.

The "Eyes of Belial" have been activated.

Less than three seconds later, he realized the reason for the escort.

He may have been in danger, and Valmet, at Coco's request, must deliver him safely to Ishtar.

Without thinking much, Jack turned towards the exit.

Getting into the elevator, he calmly adjusted his upgraded FN Five-seveN, removing the pistol from the safety.

He doesn't need protection.

He is not surrounded by pride, but he will definitely not risk someone, especially a woman who was very close to him, for nothing.

Only as a last resort will he call them for help and only when the chance of their death is minimal.

"If you die, then together" - does not work for him.

He is not a simple man, but the bearer of a vicious System of Evil.

The days of his weakness have passed, now his shoulders are more than capable of withstanding any assigned burden.

...

— Oh, now you're meeting me. How was the training session?

— Lam... — Jack froze for a second, almost bumping into the man who was standing at the elevator door — Not bad. Less intense, but it will also do. Chiquita and Valmet taught hand-to-hand combat and knife handling.

The veteran nodded with a smile — They can do that. I don't understand how you can fight with a knife, against opponents armed with guns, but they succeed. As for me, it's better with a gun in your hands. More reliable.

Jack smiled gently as he stepped out of the elevator and gave way to a man—It's better to be able and not need than to need and not be able.

— Good idea. — Lam nodded thoughtfully — Okay, I won't keep you. — the veteran finished and the elevator doors closed

"So Lam isn't up to speed yet. Good." — Jack exhaled softly, walking out of the hostel with a quick step

The sun was at its zenith and the heat was not weak.

Making a visor for the eyes from the palm of his hand, Jack looked around — "It's quiet for now, but it's not worth relaxing the rolls."

— "You shouldn't have refused support." — said O'Dim unpretentiously — "Not a situation in which you can give your best."

- "Really?" — the guy squinted — "And why?"

- "You'll find out."

- "Of course you won't say..."

"Obviously, isn't it?"

"Then why are you gurgling about something else?"

- "Boring."

"So entertain yourself."

- "Why should I entertain myself if there is you?" — Gunther grinned and Jack rolled his eyes

- "Really." — Jack chuckled, walking down the street — "Then give me a big red one, a clown nose and a wig."

"I've already given you the system, that's enough."

- "Toad."

...

While Jack was walking to Ishtar, one of the guy's girlfriends was sitting in one bar.

— Bao, repeat.

— What are you doing here, Two-armed? — the man grimaced with suspicion — The third glass already. Decided to smash my bar again!? I just rebuilt it!

— Fuck off and repeat. — Revie waved off, and then shouted — And it's not my fault that your bar was demolished again!

— Not again, but again! — the mustachioed man exclaimed in response, putting a glass of rum in front of her with a bang — If you don't come, there's no stone left on the stone! Get out, you walking problem! Nemesis of my dear bar!

— I have nothing to do with it! How many times to say?!

— Yes!? Your friend did this here last time!

— And what? Jack has all the questions, and he saved me and your ass then!

— If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have to save my ass! I'm telling you! Get the fuck out of here!

— So I won't leave. Revie grinned, draining her glass.

— Here you burn... where are you getting so drunk? You want to smash my bar?

— Go fuck yourself with your bar already. — Rovi waved lazily and grinned — The salary rolled in from an easy job. So I note a little. Now I'll take a little more time and go to my "Berserker".

— ...just don't bring me here. Bao squinted

— It hurts. Revie grinned, and then squinted at the drop of sweat that was rolling down the bar owner's temple— What? Are you afraid of my teddy bear?

Bao squinted at her as if asking: "Little bear? Are you fucking serious?''

— Why are you looking like that?

— Revi, I've seen a lot while I'm stuck in Ruanapur, but I've never seen people torn apart with their bare hands. — Bao actively shook his head while wiping the glass with a white towel — Your Kent is a real monster, without any exaggeration. Not a wolf in sheep's clothing, but a demon in sheep's clothing. I would never have thought that such a seemingly kind guy would be capable of such a thing.

— This is how you can see a bear cub only if you offend his woman. — Revi grinned — So don't offend me and pour more.

— There is a better option. — Bao nodded and looked at her with one eye — Can you get the fuck out of my bar? Then this lunatic will definitely not come.

— Nope.

— Bitch.

— I'll tell him.

— ...repeat, right?

- yes. Preferably at the expense of the institution.

With a sour face, Bao filled a glass, under the impudent grin, Roar — Lei-lei, or are you blind and can't see the edges?

When the glass was filled and Revi raised it to her lips with a satisfied smile, someone sharply hit her on the back with a cheerful saying - Hello, two—armed.

Choking, Revie looked sharply at levo— Ed?!

— Agas. — the woman grinned, chewing gum

She wasn't dressed like a nun.

The short blouse revealed a view of the stomach and well emphasized what Mother nature had gifted.

An equally short green skirt gave a wonderful view of long legs and fleshy thighs.

Her favorite glasses were on her face, as was a satisfied grin.

Eda >

— I have not learned to drink, everything is past my mouth. Eda was saying with a grin

In response, Revie showed the middle finger, wiping her face with her own T-shirt, which caused her breasts to flash a little.

Only Bao could see it, but he didn't even look at them.

First of all, Roar like that is still a pain in the ass.

Secondly, her boyfriend is not a pain, but a real log in the ass.

Bao didn't want to experience either.

And he didn't have time for boobs.

Now he was more worried about the bar, because Eda had also pulled up.

Together with the two-handed, they can break so much firewood...

— What do you need? — Revi sighed — Because of you, rum does not climb down my throat.

— You just need to open your mouth. — Eda grinned — You should open your mouth before pouring rum into it.

— Did you come to annoy me, girlfriend? Revie raised an eyebrow .

— Nope. To share the joy and offer one adventure. Eda shrugged her shoulders, making a gesture by which Bao understood that the woman was asking her to pour

— What kind of joy?

Grinning, Eda stared dreamily and contentedly at the ceiling, smacking her lips — Your Jackie so fired me, right in the church, that the saints on the frescoes blushed.

Revie's face fell—Jack?

- yes.

— You?

- yes.

"In the church?"

— Are you deaf? Yes!

Revie snorted—That's how I believed you. If he goes for such a thing, it's definitely not for nothing.

Eda grinned—It was not for nothing.

Revie squinted discontentedly — Isn't it a shame to seduce a teenager with candy, grandma?

— Ha!? Did you see yourself?! Who are you then?

— We have love. — Revi grinned — Well, what about you... you can only pay for candy.

Eda snorted—I thought your ass would burn.

— Well, he's a free bird, unencumbered. — Two—armed shrugged her shoulders - There is enough for everyone, so there can't be much jealousy. Anyway, you're just like that, for one time and no more.

— Oh, you!.. — Eda poked her finger at her and looked at the glass, finished — Drunk!

— Who would say... — with irony in her voice, Revie replied, watching how the grief—stricken nun drains a glass of whiskey - Why did she come here?

— Brag. And... offer a case.

— That's where we should start. Revie nodded with a peaceful look, and then grinned sharply, as she knows how, fang — Spit it out. Who and what should be shot?

— You've already heard about the assassins who are shaking the balance of large groups in Ruanapur, haven't you?

— Of course. — Revi shrugged her shoulders — The whole city is on its ears, and I'm not deaf.

— Balalaika today put forward a reward for the murderers' heads. — Eda said a little quieter than usual, showing the "five" — Fifty pieces of forever green.

Two—armed grinned harder - Not bad.

— So what? Shall we take it?

— You can. So...

Revie was interrupted in mid-sentence.

— Will you take the third one?

Eda and Revi simultaneously turned in the direction of the voice to find an Asian woman in a characteristic scarlet qipao and hair gathered in a ponytail.

There was a "combat makeup" on her face, as if the lady was always ready to frown.

Shenhua >

— Who else are you? Eda scowled

— Oh, it's you... Revie sighed lazily

— Yeah.

"Do you know her?"

— Just like that, one cheeky ungrateful.

— Actually, I can hear everything.

— I know. What are you doing here?

— La, fifty pieces is not divided into three.

— Can I borrow your boyfriend for one night?

Eda and Revi exchanged glances, grinned, and the nun continued the topic with money.

— And it won't be enough for three.

— You've completely lost your brain that you came to me with such a question, huh? — Revi asked defiantly, tilting her head to the side

The girl's hand touched the holster.

Shenhua, without any fear, spread her hands — I mean the same thing. Silly, isn't it? But he doesn't want to sleep with me any other way. He says, go, ask for permission, and at the same time ask for forgiveness.

Eda and Revi looked at each other again, laughing and snorting.

— Well, me, just for once, for one night, and the more the prey flutters... — the Chinese woman grinned — ... the more I want to eat it.

Eda replied with a grin — The prey here is not him, but you. Once you try, you won't want another one. You will sleep and see that night, sighing.

Shenhua raised an eyebrow, "Did you sleep with him?"

— Yeah. — I pressed Ed's forehead — And I'll tell you one thing - he's a demon in bed. I couldn't walk normally for a day, and even now it hurts a little inside, but the pleasure was more than worth it.

— Come on?

— I answer. — Eda grinned, and Revie echoed her grin — And in general, you think carefully, you need it at all.

— Why this advice?

Eda shrugged her shoulders — I heard that you Asians have everything there narrowly, but even I had problems with the bandura that the boy grew.

While Shenhua thoughtfully imagined the size of the problem, Eda gave Revie a greasy teasing grin — By the way, how are you at all? You sleep with him often, probably, you already have such a broken basin there, so if you give birth, the children themselves will fly out.

Revie grimaced — Went to the ass, a nun of easy virtue! How do you fuck in the house of the Lord?

Eda spread her hands with a satisfied grin — Very much nothing. Under the supervision of the lord, I was sure that Jack's dick would not tear me in half. You just have to pray while you're being hammered, but it seems to work like that.

Revie stuck out her tongue in disgust— The worst nun in the whole fucking world.

— Thank you.

Sighing, Revi looked thoughtfully at Shenhua — If she hasn't changed her mind, then I'll give you a chance.

— Eh? — the Chinese woman was surprised

Revi grinned — You will help us with this case and my forgiveness with permission is yours. I can even issue it in a written format.

Shenhua squinted — And I don't get a reward?

— How do you not get it? — Roar spread her hands — You get it. But from Jack in a particularly intense size. And so?..

After thinking a little, Shenhua clicked — I hope I won't regret it.

Revie shook her hand with a grin—You won't regret it. Eda and I, we give a guarantee.

The nun grinned, looking at Revie — Instead of jealousy and anger, the monetization of Jack's talents. Fuck you.

Revie grinned, spreading her arms— What else to do? I know for sure that I will always get a piece of love, and the situation from the very beginning was such that I did not get this love entirely. So it's better this way than nothing.

— Okay, okay. So what? Let's go?

- yes. Otherwise they'll get ahead of us.

...

Meanwhile, a couple of children, about eleven or twelve years old, watched with interest, without taking their eyes off, as Jack cautiously moved along the street.

— It's him, brother. — a small girl with snow-white hair spoke in a thin angelic voice

A black dress in Gothic style contrasted with a black guitar case.

— Exactly, exactly, Sister.

— How big.

— Are you afraid, Sister?

— No, brother.

— Shall we go? the little boy grinned

— Come on. — the girl grinned

One children's song said that a smile would brighten the gloomy day and even a rainbow in the sky would wake up, but definitely not from the smiles of these children.

Here, rather, a gloomy day will plunge everything into darkness and the roar of thunder will shake all living things.

Hansel and Gretel 1>

...

A couple of children came out of the shadows of the alley, heading after Jack.

Walking, the guy seemed to feel their sharp eyes boring into him.

A strange indescribable feeling that makes you uncomfortable.

A feeling that makes it clear that something is going wrong.

Therefore, Jack smoothly turned onto the main street, even though it increased the way to Ishtar.

At that moment, he noticed with his peripheral vision a couple of children who stood out with their clothes from the general crowd.

Understanding who they were turned Jack's insides upside down.

- "No..."

- "The fun begins." — O'Dim's eyes flashed, but Jack did not pay attention to it

He had no time for Mr. Mirror right now. At all.

He didn't know what to do.

More precisely, I knew, but horror filled my head from such a decision.

He couldn't let these kids go.

Their fate, without exaggeration, is terrible.

The people who created such a fate for them are the sick bastards.

After all, only such shots could force them to kill other children, indulging in debauchery.

They were tortured.

Not only physically, but also mentally.

Even a healthy person will go crazy, what to say about children...

No... these kids are not crazy.

They have adapted.

Raised on cruelty and debauchery, they simply do not know anything else.

They weren't going crazy.

They were raised as monsters.

And there is no way to fix it.

This can't be fixed, no matter how much you want to.

— Hello, brother.

While Jack was thinking, the boy and the girl had already managed to approach him.

Hansel and Gretel 2>

They stared at him with bated breath.

It was as if they saw something that struck them to the core.

The wide-open eyes of this little girl scared Jack, even though he was a couple of times taller and stronger.

Gretel 1>

The girl, returning to reality, smiled, which made Jack even more uncomfortable.

— You're beautiful. Very.

Gretel 2>

Then she turned to her brother—Yes?

— Uh-huh. — the boy nodded — Very handsome.

— ...thank you. Jack swallowed a stringy saliva, forcing a smile

There was a real anarchy in the guy's head.

— My brother looks kind. — said the boy, flashing his eyes

— Will Brother help us? — the girl echoed him, clutching the guitar case

— Ahem, how can I help you? — Jack smiled monosyllabically with eyes full of contradiction and bitterness — "How can I help you at all?.. Can I help you?.."

— There, in the alley, the cat climbed a tree and can't get down. — without blinking, the kid said

— And you're so high. — the girl raised her hands to the sky with a smile — You can definitely take off the cat.

— ...good. Jack nodded weakly, feeling the muscles in his body throb with readiness for action

— Come on. — the girl waved, setting a step

Jack followed with the utmost care and concentration.

The boy followed him, so that Jack kept his ears on top of his head.
