A thought suddenly appeared in Shimizu Shiho's mind, and the next moment all her muscles tensed up.

Chastity is extremely important for any woman, but for Shimizu Shiho, who has been in the army for many years, there are things that are more important than chastity, such as hatred.

The reason why she changed her mind just before she was about to die after being defeated by Jiang Chuan was because Shimizu Shiho hoped to settle some things before she died. She even submitted to Jiang Chuan's protection and was humiliated by him.

But this also strengthened her belief that she must kill the old man with her own hands.

After turning his head to look at Shimizu Shiho, Jiang Chuan retracted his gaze and leaned back in his chair to look at the night sky again.

"You've always wanted to do this, are you impatient?"

"..."

Hearing Jiang Chuan's question, Shimizu Shiho was stunned at first, and then realized that she seemed to have misunderstood Jiang Chuan's intention. He didn't want to take her virginity, but...

"I know what you are worried about. Don't worry. Although there are many women around me, none of them are forced by me. You can relax. I called you here this time to tell you some serious things."

Jiang Chuan raised his hand, rubbed his dry eyelids, and then spoke.

"It's been peaceful here for a long time since the last time. It's a good thing and there's nothing to complain about, but I can feel that something is brewing."

“It makes me uncomfortable.”

After Jiang Chuan finished speaking, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes as he looked towards the night sky.

Although at this point, with the blessing of the farm space, both his own strength and the defense forces around him are no longer a threat to a group of shriveled zombies, but Jiang Chuan knows that the danger he faces is definitely not limited to this.

Even the huge monster he saw before leaving Qingjing Apartment... was not the focus of his concern.

After traveling through time and space again and again in front of the big machine at the bottom of the pool, and experiencing a series of stories in the world of magic and despair, Jiang Chuan has completely understood why the world he lives in has become what it is today, and who the real enemy he is facing is.

That was a real wizard, not some "magician" in a fantasy world who could only cast fireballs and cones of ice in an adventurer's team. The wizard in that world could really fight against the entire tide of despair on his own, and even...

Like Twenty-Four, he used magic to create a whole magical space, which is the farm space he has always relied on!

Although in the message from Twenty-Four that I had seen before, he had said that this magical farm space was created by him with the help of some magical artifact, but no matter what, he was also the creator of this space.

Even though he possessed such incredible abilities, he had been unable to do anything to the woman named Seventy-Seven for such a long time.

If such an enemy really takes me seriously, even with my current self, what chances do I have of winning?

The most terrifying enemy is the one whose depth is unknown.

Although the story mode has not been fully experienced yet, there is obviously more information waiting to be discovered later, but if you want to continue to activate the machine at the bottom of the pool, you must collect more despair crystal cores, that is, you have to kill more "matrixes" with wisdom like Ryudo and Teacher Mikami.

In the past, I had always been living in a small place here, concentrating on accumulating strength and waiting for the enemy to come to me and then defeat them.

But now, the situation has changed. Those zombies that are becoming increasingly shriveled under the sun are no longer a threat to him. In other words, the city that seemed as dangerous as hell to him in the past is no longer dangerous.

By now, it seems that the plan of living in a doomsday fortress is no longer the best option.

If I continue to live here, if Seventy-Seven really wants to deal with me, then even if this is a small town far away from the city in the mountains, it seems to make no difference to such an enemy.

However, if he could take the initiative to find more "mother bodies" and collect the remaining necessary despair crystal cores as soon as possible, so as to start the subsequent story mode to explore more information about the enemy, or even lead the scarecrow army back to Tokyo to find the nest of the "Countermeasures Bureau" that has always given him a headache, it seems to be much wiser strategically than sticking to one side.

This is Jiang Chuan’s idea. He has had this idea for some time, but it was not until today that he finally decided to put it into practice.

However, after going through so much, he is no longer the impulsive child who did not think about the consequences. He now knows that any action must be planned in advance and acted carefully.

"I'll give you 20,000 of my scarecrow army. Pick the sturdiest of the cars you drove here. Also, take all the supplies and gasoline."

"Don't you want to go back for revenge? Twenty thousand scarecrows are enough to massacre the entire Countermeasures Bureau, right?"

As Jiang Chuan spoke, he turned his head again and looked at Shimizu Shiho, whose face was full of shock.

Jiang Chuan didn't need to brag. She knew better than anyone what 20,000 scarecrows meant. The entire team she led was completely wiped out effortlessly when faced with less than a thousand scarecrows.

There are only a dozen elite combat teams like theirs in the entire Countermeasures Bureau, not to mention the many who are on long-term missions in the outside world...

"Aren't you... afraid that I will betray you?"

To Jiang Chuan's surprise, Shimizu Shiho did not respond to him immediately, but asked him the question instead.

However, before Jiang Chuan could answer, Shimizu Shiho added awkwardly: "Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."

After thinking about it for a while, she realized how stupid her question was. With Jiang Chuan's current strength, what could he do even if she betrayed him?

Jiang Chuan was indeed not worried about this at all. After all, Shimizu Shiho had become his servant. Although she herself was not aware of it, in her subconscious, her loyalty had been fixed at 100. There was no possibility of betrayal, so there was naturally no need to worry.

"Considering your past experiences, I don't think there's any need to worry about you, but I'd still like to add that if things don't go smoothly, or if there are any unexpected emergencies, just be smarter. It's always better to be alive than dead, isn't it?"

Jiang Chuan gave one final instruction and said nothing else. After retracting his gaze, he closed his eyes again.

He was not worried about Shimizu Shiho, but he also did not want to lose such a "companion" who had been living with him under the same roof for more than a month. Although the two were once enemies, people are emotional animals. If Shimizu Shiho really left and never came back, Jiang Chuan would definitely not be happy to see it.

"…Then when do I leave?"

"Tomorrow morning, and get a good night's sleep tonight."

"I see."

Shimizu Shiho simply agreed. It could be said that she had no reason to refuse. After all, this was the only thing she wanted to do in this world.

After everything was explained and the subsequent things to do were determined, Jiang Chuan squinted his eyes and continued to enjoy the silence of the winter night, but for some reason, the air gradually began to become a little awkward.

Even if Jiang Chuan didn't look back, he could feel that the source of the embarrassment was Shimizu Shiho who was standing behind him and refusing to leave.

what's the situation?

You've already said what you want to say, why are you still standing there?

"..."

"..."

Jiang Chuan was gradually infected by the embarrassment, so after a long sigh, he sat up straight, turned around and looked at Shimizu Shiho behind him again.

"You have something to say?"

"Ah."

Faced with this slightly awkward question, Shimizu Shiho's eyes were a little evasive, but she still responded straightforwardly and nodded.

She opened her mouth as if she was ready to speak, but after a long while, she didn't utter a word. Jiang Chuan had no choice but to wait patiently while tapping his toes on the ground.

Finally, Shimizu Shiho managed to utter a few words.

"Before I leave, there is something I would like to ask of you."

"Can I help you?"

Hearing Shimizu Shiho's words, Jiang Chuan couldn't help but frown slightly. His current situation was not very good, and wasting time was the most important thing to avoid.

However, Shimizu Shiho's next words instantly dispelled his concerns.

"If I die, I don't want to die as a bitch."

"During this period of time, I see that your life has been very... I think this kind of thing should be a good thing for you."

"What do you think?"

After Shimizu Shiho said this, the look in her eyes when she looked at Jiang Chuan suddenly showed a bit of emotion that she had never had before.

This was really unexpected for Jiang Chuan.

Looking at Shimizu Shiho's extremely abnormal expression, Jiang Chuan had to admit that he had no reason to refuse.

"For such a small matter, just come directly. There is no need to consult my opinion in advance."

Jiang Chuan jumped down from the chair, then looked around and asked Shimizu Shiho.

"Here? Or somewhere else?"

"..."

Seeing Jiang Chuan's straightforward and direct attitude, Shimizu Shiho couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

Although she was unwilling to admit it, Shimizu Shiho had figured out her attitude towards the man in front of her during this period of time. She herself had not expected that facing this man who defeated and humiliated her, she could not feel hatred in her heart, but gradually developed a kind of indescribable affection for him...

Whether it is his care for the women around him, or his strength, or the natural calmness that comes with that strength, even though she has experienced all kinds of life and death trials, she is still a woman after all, and the instinct to admire the strong is always engraved in her bones.

However, seeing Jiang Chuan's casual attitude, Shimizu Shiho suddenly regretted making such a request to him.

But the words have been spoken. Since she has already accepted the job from him, it is hard to predict whether she will be able to return to this only place that has made her feel at ease for a long time after leaving early tomorrow morning. So at least before leaving here, let her life have no other regrets.

"Not here, find a more private place. I don't want anyone else to hear me. I don't want to be in your space. It feels... unreal."

Shimizu Shiho finished speaking in a somewhat halting manner, her tone lacking the shyness of an ordinary woman, but her cheeks were as red as apples.

Seeing her unique yet strangely charming expression, Jiang Chuan felt that something in himself had begun to stir, so he couldn't wait to talk about the proposal.

"Then the bedroom on the second floor?"

"Those two downstairs will hear it."

"Just listen to it, you see I never..."

"No, I can't accept it."

"...You are such a bother."

Jiang Chuan rubbed his eyebrows worriedly.

Where else?

It has to be private and not disturb other people.

Not yet in the farm space.

Where else can I go?

If we were to talk about the place in Ando's house that is least likely to cause a disturbance to the two old people downstairs...

Got it!

Jiang Chuan suddenly had an idea and thought of a perfect choice.

Chapter 268 The Sudden Final Battle

Twenty minutes later.

second floor,

In the utility room.

The two armies faced off, resulting in heavy casualties.

In terms of geographical location, this narrow utility room is indeed the room farthest from the bedroom of the old couple downstairs.

Although the walls of the Ando family's home are not very soundproof, two walls are more soundproof than one wall, and two walls plus a ceiling are more soundproof than two walls. This is the distance between this utility room and Ando's parents' bedroom.

Jiang Chuan thought this was enough, but in the end, he overestimated the walls and ceiling of the Ando family, or underestimated the cardiopulmonary function of a strong former female officer.

All in all, this night, the old couple of the Ando family had another slightly awkward, long-awaited sleepless night.

……

I don't know how much time passed, but midnight arrived.

Lying by the window and lighting a cigarette, Jiang Chuan looked at the hills in the distance that looked like dark monsters in the night and let out a long breath.

The hot and humid air in the room gradually dissipated, and the cool and dry winter night breeze slowly blew onto Jiang Chuan's sweaty chest. It should have been a biting cold, but now Jiang Chuan felt only a slight chill.

Shimizu Shiho was worthy of being the woman who had fought with him before. If it had been any other person among them, it would have been impossible for her to persist until now. However, Shimizu Shiho not only persisted, but even had a trace of consciousness and did not fall asleep.

But her mood at this moment was extremely complicated.

Lying in the narrow storage room, looking at Jiang Chuan's strong back so close to her, Shimizu Shiho felt so exhausted that her whole body felt like it was falling apart. She found that an emotion she had never experienced before arose in her heart.

No, this kind of emotion is obviously the last thing I need.

Shimizu Shiho weakly raised a sweaty arm, placed it on her forehead, and closed her eyes slightly.

A voice sounded faintly beside her ears.

Shiho, remember how I look now... This is the death of a weak person.

This is the fate of those without power...

You...don't be like me.

The voice became increasingly vague and gradually faded away. Shimizu Shiho put down her arms and realized that at this point, she could no longer even remember what the man looked like.

"I'm sorry, father..."

Shimizu Shiho once again looked at Jiang Chuan's broad back.
