JOJO, The Escape from Real Diavolo

Chapter 106 Past Stories

What do you mean? Did I say something wrong? Was my deduction incorrect?

Although the female ghost was an enemy, Chen had no need to believe what she said. However, judging from her angry and doubtful expression, but not her embarrassed and angry one, it seemed that he had indeed said something wrong.

"But you're partly right. I can't touch you, including these sunglasses... But I'm not a ghost, and wearing sunglasses doesn't mean I'm dead. I was just saying that about that handsome guy."

Although the woman in sunglasses was angry, so angry that she gritted her teeth and her face was contorted with rage, she was still willing to forgive and explain things to Chen, as if they were friends who had a falling out.

"Heh, do you think I'd believe that?"

"Believe it or not, even if I were a ghost, what could you do about it? What heinous things have I done? Do you have the right to judge me?"

The beautiful woman ordered a servant to wipe the sticky liquid off her hair. Even though her sunglasses were stained, she had the servant wipe them for her, refusing to take them off or replace them.

"..."

Chen Miaowen watched as the other person tidied up. He even felt a little guilty for being scolded like that, as if he had really been very impolite.

"I don't know what you're hesitating about. If you're going to kill, then kill. Why are you wavering because of her one-sided story? Is your resolve as worthless as dog shit?"

"Boss... I don't want to kill innocent people. There's no indication or possibility that they're going to attack me, and I shouldn't be judging anyone."

It's back to the old state, which is a normal way of thinking, but Diablo is very unhappy about it.

"What if I die? Do you remember those words? 'This is my last death!' If I die this time, there might not be another chance. Even if I really die, I will still die!"

Chen Miaowen sighed, "I can't do it."

"Are you fucking brain-dead?! You..."

Chen Miaowen had been able to isolate the boss's voice in his mind since his last time travel and after acquiring the Spider Calamity, but he had never done so. Now he felt he could put this ability to use.

So he said to himself, "Quiet, quiet," and his mind quieted down, blocking out the boss's roar.

"Of course, if you're a madman, go ahead and try attacking me. Kill me, and you'll definitely be happy, right?"

The woman in sunglasses wiped away the wine stains, and suddenly stopped making angry noises; instead, she laughed.

"You're definitely not an ordinary person, are you? Because you were able to intimidate those men away without any conditions; you have an extraordinary power, don't you?"

Chen Miaowen finally sensed something was amiss. "Can you tell me why you've been standing guard in front of the bartender's door?"

"Why should I tell you? You're going to kill me, aren't you? Then go ahead and do it!"

Chen Miaowen didn't retort, but turned to look at the bartender.

"Then can you at least tell me? Why is she blocking your way and refusing to let go?"

"I have no idea."

Are you kidding me?

I thought I would be able to get some information, but to my surprise, even the bartender didn't seem inclined to confide in me or ask for help.

Judging from the bartender's tone and calm eyes, he was not threatened.

Then we don't need to worry about it. Actually, whether he lives or dies has nothing to do with us.

"On the contrary, is that old man lying to me? Is the story really just a story? Is he really that good at making things up?"

So the man ignored Chen and continued wiping the shaker, while the woman looked confidently at him, as if the two of them were the united ones and she was just an outsider.

This situation left Chen in a very awkward position, and in the end, he chose to leave the restaurant in a dejected manner.

After leaving, I discovered that the old man who told stories could no longer find a spot.

"When I find you, old man, I'll make you explain yourself!"

Despite the embarrassment, he still uttered harsh words to thin air.

......

The next part of the story involves the bald man and the wicked woman.

The bald man who had traveled from another time had killed innocent people because of his abilities. He felt pain and remorse, and went into a frenzy of self-isolation and crying in the darkness.

Later, his host, the wicked woman Yali, took him to a cemetery and called him out at that moment.

When the bald man came out, his eyes were still red. The sudden light made it hard for him to open his eyes, and he covered his eyes, not wanting to open them. It was as if his host, Yali, was a devil tormenting him. He had been hurt all over by her, and he was unwilling to admit it or talk to Yali about anything. In short, he was just being difficult.

Until Yali said something,

"Because that person killed my brother, he is not innocent, and you are not actually a murderer."

The bald man's squatting body trembled slightly, and then he released his hands from his face like a girl.

"W-what do you mean?"

"Literally, that man, the man surnamed Luo, killed my brother. When we were little, he locked my brother in a thatched hut while we were playing, and then burned him to death... Hah, but he didn't receive any punishment because he was too young, only ten years old, and he even showed remorse... That damned judge only sentenced him to half a month in jail and made him pay some money... But I've always remembered it! To get close to him, I had plastic surgery and changed my surname, making him lower his guard, all so that he would pay the price someday, and today, I've done it..."

As Ya-li recounted her past, she almost lost her breath, so she took out a brand of cigarette from her pocket, lit it in front of the grave, and began to smoke.

"Cough cough... At this moment, only nicotine can calm my anger a little... As for being a murderer before, I was just running away, wanting you to bear that name for me... But actually, I am the murderer."

The old man wiped his eyes and saw the words on the tombstone. It was the grave of Yali's brother, a man named Yabu.

"So this is what they call revenge? The plot of the manga is so familiar..."

The old man didn't say anything, but watched as his host, Yali, began to redden her eyes.

"I'll go back... You don't need to explain for me. You should just be alone for a while..."

"Hmph... No need. I called you out just to say sorry, but going back inside your body will probably be lonely, right? Why not stay in the real world for a while? No one will pass through this cemetery at this time, so your bad luck won't take effect."

The old man accepted it, after all, his host didn't seem to be afraid to cry and embarrass himself, and he also wanted to see the outside world.

"I almost forgot, what's your name? You should have a name, right? Even if you're a stand-in... are you just called Baldy?"

"Ah, my name is ***, but just call me Baldy... A stand-in should only have a title."
