Chapter 111 Gift from the Gods

He was sure that I had no ability to resist!

He must take my child away!

Jack Baldo's next words successfully attracted her attention.

"But, Marina, don't you think this child is a little strange..."

Marina thought about the origin of her child and immediately denied Jack Baldo's words.

"He is a gift from the gods to me! No one can take him away!"

Jack Baldo's voice came intermittently into the cabin.

"I'm worried about you, Marlena, so I went to inquire about some information... I know that the corner girls have a unique method of contraception. As long as you don't want to, you will never get pregnant."

"Besides, you didn't pick up any customers that month. You had signs of pregnancy immediately after your period."

"Marina, this child may be a gift from God, but it is also possible that... it is the descendant of the devil - don't be angry yet! I am just analyzing! A very objective analysis!"

To what Jack Baldo expected, Marina's reaction was extremely calm.

"I know, Jack."

In the past nine months, she has thought about it countless times: How did this child come to her?

Jack Bardo was right. During the month she was pregnant with this child, not only did she not have any visitors, she had just had her period.

The most important thing is that in the past time, she had had several abortions due to her youth and ignorance, and the doctor made it clear that it was impossible for her to get pregnant again.

She spent so many years in a state of confusion, ruining herself to the core. She was already numb and had no hope for the future.

Until the arrival of this child.

This new little life awakened the motherhood imprinted in her genes and her new love for the world - all of this happened without warning on the morning when she was diagnosed with pregnancy.

Marina still remembers the day when she rewarded herself with 1 penny of lemon bread and soy milk, walked into the clinic uneasily, and heard the fact of pregnancy from the doctor as if she was experiencing a dream.

She left the clinic as if she were stepping on clouds. She sat on the left side of the damaged alder bench in the corridor outside the hospital's gynecology clinic, caressing her unswelled belly.

There is a little life there.

That's my child.

She felt like she was reborn.

After thinking over and over again countless times, Marlena made up her mind:

No matter what, this child is a gift from God.

"Marlena, maybe you can let me take a look at this child..."

Marina rejected Jack Baldo's suggestion without hesitation: "Don't even think about it!"

There was a sigh from outside the door.

"Okay... I will watch you when I get off work, Malina, to make sure that snake man doesn't bother you... That thing doesn't seem to dare to go out during the day, and I'm about to go to shift. If I go to work

If I work the day shift, I can protect you at night."

He hesitated and said:

"But...recently, everything in the city is not peaceful. Two groups of people have come to the building today. They are existences called extraordinary beings. I think...they are all here to find you."

"I heard some bad rumors... It's a legend circulating among the people, saying that the blood of a certain corner girl has strange healing powers."

"Marlena, is this rumor made up by someone out of thin air?

If not...have you ever healed anyone with blood?"

Marina didn't reply. Her spirit was so weak that she didn't have the strength to recall what had happened.

Jack Baldo's voice was a little solemn, even though he had tried his best to avoid putting pressure on her.

"I once told you that your blood is different from normal people.

The fact that you can light a cigarette to extend my life means that you have something special in your blood, something... similar to [divinity].

This is the thing that puzzles me the most. When I first met you, you were obviously just an ordinary person. How could you suddenly have [divine nature]?

I think it has something to do with what’s in your belly..."

At this point, Jack Baldo seemed to realize something and suddenly changed the topic.

"For some people, your blood is a coveted delicacy and the most precious food in the world.

Your existence has been known to others, but those people have not found you yet. You are still safe, Marina, I will protect you."

Marina feels overwhelmed by his constant "threats."

She looked at her bulging belly and said in a voice that only she could hear: "Baby, don't be afraid, mom can take you away, mom can take you into Smokey Lake..."

Jack Baldo's hearing seemed to be extremely sensitive, and even though Marina's voice was like a whisper, he could still hear her clearly.

"Marlena, this won't work."

He whispered:

"People who leave Yanam City and enter the Smokey Lake will be cursed by the Smokey Lake. They will have to live on the islands and boats in the Smokey Lake for their whole lives. Once they go ashore, they will suffer bad luck."

Marina lowered her head and was speechless.

She didn't understand why there was no place for her in such a big city of Yanan.

Jack Baldo's voice was calm.

"Give me some time, Marina, and I will help you until you give birth to the baby successfully."

He knew that he would be misunderstood, so he did not stay outside the door, walked along the wooden floor, and finally disappeared into the shadows at the end of the corridor.

Marina listened to the noise outside the house, got up with difficulty, moved the dressing table and put it against the door, then locked the security window and drew the curtains, then she couldn't hold on anymore, fell on the bed, and fell asleep.

As Malina fell into sleep, Chen Yan felt that he was being repelled by a force - the original consciousness that existed in the small body in Malina's belly had awakened.

That consciousness was not hostile to him at all, so it just "pushed" him out gently.

The next moment Chen Yan's consciousness completely left that small body, on the third floor of the apartment at No. 33 Walker Street, Chen Yan suddenly opened his eyes.

He sat up suddenly and looked at the clock on the wall.

The time points to 4:13.

About two hours passed, which seemed to be about the same time as I experienced in that clear dream!

Claude Moon's urgent voice appeared immediately.

"You finally woke up!"

Chen Yan was sober this time, feeling comfortable all over, as if he had experienced a beautiful dream.

"Claude, what just happened? I didn't see that girl!"

Claude Moon replied cautiously:

"I helped you enter your dream fragment, but that fragment is not a complete picture - that picture is connected to a passage - a passage leading to an unknown direction."

"I can only help you enter the dream, but I can't prevent you from entering that passage... I can only control the dream to a certain extent, but I am far from being able to do whatever I want."

"Ayan, what did you see? If you can tell me enough information, I may be able to help you analyze what happened to you."

Chen Yan was stunned for a long time and replied:

"I dreamed about that ship." He said in a recalling tone: "I dreamed about the scene before boarding the ship. It was the dock in my hometown... But the time was too short. I only walked one street and left.

A dream."

Claude Moon said in a positive tone:

"There's something stopping you from exploring your memories - I'm sure it's the girl in the light blue dress!"
