Chapter 17 Matt: Miss Miko, please stay!

 "Jimmy, this bastard is absolutely crazy. He swallowed the bikers' money and broke the rules of this place. If he doesn't die this time, I will definitely kick him out."

Mrs. Amy heard the sound of smashing upstairs, shouted angrily, turned back to the room and slammed the door.

She would not help Jimmy stand out and provoke the bad guys from the speeding gang. She could only vent her anger by slamming the door.

Matt shook his head and turned around to go to the second floor to check the situation. He heard a flurry of footsteps upstairs, and then someone came downstairs.

"Don't take me out of the room, I'll die."

Jimmy was being dragged by several people, crying and screaming.

"Ah."

However, the members of the motorcycle gang who were dragging Jimmy ignored him at all and spoke in extremely irritable tones.

"You think you'll be safe just hiding at home with the help of the Maggia Gang?"

"I'm warning you to stop playing tricks. You have to pay today, and we are going to be angry. If we don't give you some color, how can we still hang out on this street in the future?"

"Let me go. This is murder. If I die, you won't get a dime."

"Please, let me go!"

"Damn it, be honest with me."

The members of the Biker Party looked at Jimmy, who was struggling to hold on to the railing, trying not to be dragged out of the door. They kicked him with several big feet, causing Jimmy to scream in agony.

"Drag him out and let the people here take a good look at what will happen if he offends us!"

The black man who spoke was beating Jimmy while he was taking a look at the man standing downstairs with a cane in his hand and wearing sunglasses. He was obviously blind.

This man is looking up at them, so strange.

A blind man, what does he want to see?

Matt had no time to care what the black guy was thinking at this time, all his attention was focused on the beaten Jimmy.

In his perception, he could "see" that there was no shadow of Jimmy!

This sudden discovery made Matt's expression change.

Now, he couldn't sit still.

Jimmy's disappearance must be related to the time when the Maggia gang took him away. What Jimmy went through after the robbery in the bar that night is undoubtedly a very crucial piece of information.

Just when Matt was about to stop this evil act and save Jimmy who was dragged and beaten, he was already dragged out of the door of the apartment building.

"ah!"

The moment the sun shone on Jimmy, a shrill scream echoed throughout the street.

Jimmy was curled up on the ground, in a crazy state, as if he was really crazy.

It looked like a vampire meeting a cross, and the throat-piercing scream made people's scalp numb.

Jimmy's appearance also shocked the members of the Speeding Gang.

"Brother, brother..."

The black guy who had beaten Huanshi before was a little trembling with fear and stammered, "I, why do I feel like he is on fire?"

"Don't talk nonsense, people are not wood, how can they burn..."

Before the companion beside him finished speaking, he saw Jimmy lying on the ground, twitching wildly, and suddenly began to spontaneously ignite, and the hot flames swallowed his whole body.

"help me"

Jimmy wailed and crawled toward the shadows in the corner of the apartment.

The nails were cracked and the skin was burning, which was shocking to see.

How is this going?

Matt was also startled by Jimmy's sudden change, and quickly prepared to try to save people.

Unfortunately, it was still a step too late.

Jimmy was burned into a pile of ashes by the sun in full view of everyone.

The members of the speeding party were all frightened at this time and did not dare to stay for a long time. Everyone just got into the car and ran away.

The sudden change made Matt feel that the situation was even worse. Jimmy was so alone that his whole body was burned by the sun!

Stepping forward quickly, he looked down at the gray and white stains on the ground, feeling for the first time that things were a little tricky.

It seems that his previous guess was somewhat wrong.

People who have their shadow taken away will not become crazy because of this. The reason why they do not go out during the day is probably because they know that once they are exposed to the sun, they will suffer such a tragic end.



A figure appeared at the corner of the street and walked slowly towards this side.

At this time, Matt's radar sense sensed that someone was walking slowly behind him, with light and unhurried steps. It was a woman, a woman carrying a long bow, or a witch.

This is!

After a slight pause in breathing, Matt turned his head and felt a touch of surprise.

She was dressed in a red and white miko costume, a pure white top and a red kimono hakama. There was a hint of melancholy in her dark eyes. She had a smooth black hair style, with a plain white hairband.

Bundle.

With a long bow as tall as a person on his back, he seemed to be in a trance like a fairy descending from the sky, not eating any fireworks from the world.

It's the miko lady Fudge was talking about last night.

It seems that Fudge was not drunk last night and he did see the fairy.

only……

A trace of surprise and confusion flashed in Matt's eyes.

His radar sense told him that there was a strange snake-like creature floating next to the miko lady, but why didn't the people around him notice it?

Can't anyone else see it except him?

And why he could vaguely smell the faint earthy smell of the miko lady. Was it his imagination?



It's too late, it seems that the soul has dissipated

Kikyo lowered her eyes and looked tenderly at the dead soul insect falling on the back of her hand.

After resurrection, because her soul had been reincarnated, she left with only part of her soul.

Due to the incompleteness of her soul, she can only rely on dead soul insects to collect dead souls to fill her body before she can act.

But since arriving here, she no longer needs to worry about the source of dead souls.

Because here, in this exaggerated place with so many people, people die every day.

Since there is no soul here, it is useless for her to stay.

Shaking his head, Kikyo turned around and planned to leave.

"Please wait a moment, Miss Miko."

At this moment, a man wearing sunglasses and a cane caught up behind him.

Kikyo paused slightly and looked sideways at the man in front of her.

Different from the wanderers she met at night, the man in front of her was wearing a straight black formal suit and holding a cane in his hand. Looking at the mirror he wore on his face, he seemed to be a blind man?

But how could a blind person see that she was a witch?

Kikyo had some doubts in her heart, but she didn't want to think deeply.

She could feel that the man in front of her was different from the others here.

She is not a human being, and her soul is incomplete. Her body is made of bones and grave soil that still retain her own spiritual power, so she can clearly feel the inner desires of others.

Greed, numbness, tyranny.

Only the man in front of her gave her a different feeling.

Tolerance, justice, perseverance.

This is a special feeling. This man is the first special person that Kikyo has met in this strange place.

Just like that special demon I met in the village...

"I am Matt Murdock, a lawyer who is currently responsible for handling matters related to Mr. Jimmy. I have something to ask you."

"I wonder if Miss Miko has time. Can you and I go to the coffee shop next door to have a chat?"
