Chapter 9 Evaporation
"what about people"
A worker exclaimed because he suddenly saw the fierce-looking man outside the farm fence suddenly disappear. There was no warning, and there were no smoke or gradient special effects on TV. In the blink of an eye, a big man suddenly disappeared. The disappearance of a living person does not take any clouds with it.
Several workers looked at what happened in front of them in shock. He had no way to understand such a thing. Each of them was as shocked and surprised as the children two years ago.
Although there are many heroic legends in this world, they are far away from them. They have neither seen nor heard them with their own ears. In their perception, all legends are just legends.
"The person himself is gone, it's a ghost."
Several workers gathered outside the fence and looked at the almost bizarre situation in front of them. If this situation beyond common sense cannot be understood with scientific concepts, they can only think with the concepts of ghosts and gods.
"Is there a ghost on this farm?"
Several workers took flashlights to scan around and took pictures. There was no trace of anyone within a dozen meters. In fact, there was no need to sweep with flashlights because the weeds that had lost their vitality in late autumn and early winter were no longer standing. Standing upright, the corn stalks in the cornfield have been put down. Looking at the fifteenth moon and the sixteenth round moonlight, there is no obstacle in the distance of a hundred meters.
They just didn't believe what they saw, so they struggled feebly. After several twists and turns, they finally confirmed that this person had indeed disappeared from the world.
This is incredible
Ms. Emma turned around in surprise, but did not see the ferocious figure of her former lover and today's enemy. He disappeared as if he had never appeared.
Ms. Emma has lived on a farm since she was a child and has never been out of town or seen the big world, so her experience in dealing with people in this society has not accumulated and enriched as she grows older. "A good man marries a lazy wife, a bad man marries a frivolous wife." God seems to have played a big joke on Ms. Emma, allowing the kind-hearted Ms. Emma to meet again since the last bastard from the Stark family. What a scumbag.
"Ms. Emma, the man suddenly disappeared. There is no trace of him for hundreds of meters around."
"It's not bad if you disappear, but it's not a disaster if you stay."
"I have actually seen that that man is not a thing"
The surrounding male and female workers gathered around him afterwards, chattering non-stop. After all, a man suddenly disappeared. This was big news no matter what.
Several workers now dared to chew the man's tongue in front of Ms. Emma. Firstly, they didn't worry about retaliation when no one was around. Secondly, Ms. Emma promised to draw a clear line with the man this time, so they Everyone is tempted to act after the fact.
Jonathan was physically and mentally exhausted, and had a pain in his head, but it was not like the last time when his young body could not withstand the first burst of power. In short, he would not fall into fainting again.
Seeing the workers staring at him, Jonathan suddenly looked panicked and frightened, and shouted with a cry: "What's going on? Why did a big living person suddenly disappear? I was so scared that I thought I was going to die. I thought I would never see my mother again.”
Jonathan's thunder was loud and the rain was small, all this was planned by him.
Jonathan will not show off his abilities until the last moment. He does not want to cause trouble. More importantly, if troubles really continue in this chaotic world, as long as his ability to control time is not compromised for a day. If he finds out, then all his enemies' predictions about him will be wrong.
There is only one truth, and only one person knows it. I am afraid that even the disappeared man himself will not know why he disappeared, why he suddenly lost a piece of ground from the farm under his feet in the blink of an eye, and fell straight down. Under the formal turbulent rolling torrent.
With his own socks blocking his mouth, he could only let out a helpless cry of "hemming and hawing". He was scared, surprised, and incredulous. He was afraid that even if he escaped danger, he might be frightened into a psychosis.
"Honey, did you feel something fell?"
"No, maybe it's your imagination."
A pair of lovers leaned over the bridge, and the young man among them was teaching his girlfriend to spit into the river. However, a seemingly non-existent object fell quickly and fell into the rushing river without making a few splashes.
At the same time, in the back alley of a restaurant, two young women wiped their mouths with their sleeves.
"You are so dear. You are my sister."
Several workers who lived in small towns came down the mountain in groups. At this time, groups of coyotes often passed by on the mountain, and sometimes wild boars with big tusks passed by. Until the technological and information age, some animals The footprints gradually became extinct. After all, humans have changed their lives, but they have also changed their living environment.
Several female workers who live far away from home live in the dormitories on the farm. Ms. Emma used a big pot to boil some cornmeal batter and prepared it for the female workers as a supper at night.
"Jonathan, I'm sorry, I almost hurt you. Sometimes I even feel that I am not your mother, but you are like my father. Since your grandpa passed away, you have decided all the major issues on the farm, and I also I'm just the head of this family to the outside world, I seem to be a dispensable person."
The weather in early winter is equally moody. One moment the moon shines all over the ground, and the next moment crystal snowflakes fall. This is the first snow of the year. The earth has not completely frozen yet, so when it falls on the ground, it turns into a sheet in an instant. Raindrops hung on the black hair of Jonathan and Ms. Emma.
"How could it be? Without you, I wouldn't have been born in this world. Even if I was born, I would have died of freezing and starvation ten years ago."
Jonathan sat on the wooden floor of the balcony on the second floor of the living room, stretched out his two calves from the gap in the wooden fence of the balcony, and kept swinging in the air. He took a hard bite of the cheese on the white porcelain plate next to him, and put it in his mouth. He was chewing "squeaking".
"Jonathan, I know you are not an ordinary person, but no matter what, you will always be my child."
"I know."
"Actually, I just want to find a pillar of support for this family. Someone who can give me advice when I'm at a loss and be your backing when you're bullied. But I didn't expect that I actually found one."
"Don't talk about being sad. Don't we still have me in this family?"
Two years later, Blackie, who had grown a lot bigger, was also naughty enough. He kept licking a few pieces of cheese crumbs stained on Jonathan's fingers.
Jonathan put his arm around Ms. Emma's shoulders to give comfort to his mother in this life. He believes that even if Ms. Emma does not have perfect appearance and figure, she can still wait for the man who truly cares and loves her. If she never waits, then she will eventually grow up, stand up, and become the backbone of the family.
Compared to the superheroes in this world, I may not be that great. But on the day when the world ends, I will still protect my home first and then my home.
