When the thick white fog dissipated, Melissa looked at 23rd Street and sighed. There was a bookstore there that changed her life.
She wore a long leather coat, and when the wind blew on the bleak street, it made her coat flutter.
Melissa's sharp senses told her that the sudden white fog was not natural. It was the power of a powerful Transcendent. When she got close to 27th Street, she saw a black-robed figure rushing out of the bookstore. He seemed to be holding a book in his arms.
Now she was sure that the fog was not natural. It was the black-robed figure. 'Is he a new customer of the bookstore?' She thought.
When she thought of this, Melissa's heart started to hurt.
A sense of alienation came over her. The new customer had come, and the old customer had left.
Her fiery red hair was no longer tied up in a high ponytail. It was cut short and tied low. Her hands were in the pockets of her red leather coat. Her expression was not as lively as before. It was as if she had grown ten years in a night.
After the battle at 67th Street, she had used the overclocking learning from the books that the owner of the bookstore had given her. It allowed her to cross classes and understand the power of a god. She had reached Annihilation class and grasped some rules. She had grown to a height that no one her age could reach.
It could even be said to be higher.
But the price was that she had lost her father forever.
The Miyie Tower had once again awarded her the title of a family member of a martyr. She also had the chance to become a high-ranking executive of the Miyie Tower. It was compensation for the family of a martyr and also an affirmation of her talent. The first website was m.9biquge. com
Melissa smiled bitterly. She did not expect to have the chance to become a family member of a martyr twice.
She sighed. The sadness she felt from Uncle Winston had turned into numbness. She clenched her fists and walked towards the bookstore.
Confusion was like a chain around her neck. At the same time, she put on shackles for herself. She was getting closer to the execution ground every day. Perhaps she should take revenge, but who should she take revenge on?
Winston had said that Wang Erde and her father had died together. Perhaps that was the best result.
Melissa was in pain and confusion, she was already at 23rd Street when she did not know what to do. When the white fog dissipated, she unknowingly arrived at the bookstore.
Now, he didn't have the face to see Boss Lin. After all, Boss Lin had already given him a chance to turn back time and control the battlefield. He had already given himself and his father a way out, but he still failed.
She walked into the bookstore slowly. At the very least, she had to apologize to Boss Lin.

Lin Jie was gently placing down the gift from the black-robed man in the lower city — the Life Fragment — when he sensed that there were guests coming. He couldn't help but sigh. There were actually two guests in such a thick fog today.
He looked up happily and saw a familiar face.
Si, Melissa?! Lin Jie almost dropped the Life Fragment in his hand.
Lin Jie's 270 IQ brain started to spin rapidly, he immediately thought of the possibility that Melissa was here for Yue Sefu. But Yue Sefu seemed to have said that he could not tell Melissa that he was still alive.
Although he did not understand such a method of education, but Melissa truly looked like she had matured …. Lin Jie sized Melissa up. Indeed, this child had matured a lot in all aspects, even her dressing was more old-fashioned.
"Melissa, you still came in the end." Lin Jie said indifferently.
"…. Boss Lin." Melissa lowered her head, her red hair was no longer fluttering, but was sticking to her head meekly. Her voice had an indescribable hoarseness as she said: "I'm sorry."
~ Ah? Why are you apologizing to me? ~ Lin Jie fell into deep thought, but he still frowned, as though he was having a headache dealing with this brat.
~ Could it be that this child grew up so quickly? She already knows that her previous interactions with me — — arm-wrestling with me, challenging me, are all childish actions, and is disrespecting me, the owner of this bookstore?
Isn't she growing too quickly? ~ Lin Jie was shocked.
Melissa quietly raised her head and looked at Lin Jie. Seeing his serious face, she did not answer if she had forgiven herself.
~ Even with the help of the bookstore owner, I was still unable to protect my father, causing him to completely leave the battlefield. This matter is too disappointing for Boss Lin, and I should apologize. ~
"At least, at least Wang Erde is dead." Melissa raised her head and said with determination.
"Ah? Old Wang is dead? "Lin Jie immediately fell into shock," Who told you that? "
~ Hmm? ~ Melissa opened her eyes wide, at the same time, she and Lin Jie were both dumbfounded.
"No, no?" Melissa originally had a guilty heart, in her eyes, the intensity of the battle with Number 67 had exceeded what a child like her could bear, especially the clash between the Gods at the end. Of course, she did not personally witness Wang Erde's death.
More accurately, no one saw it, not even Yue Sefu.
~ Is Wang Erde really dead? ~ ~ The dark magician is extremely cunning, without seeing the corpse, Melissa was not completely sure. ~
"I do not know if he is dead or alive, I just want you to confirm it." Lin Jie said seriously.
Melissa was speechless, "......"
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now." Lin Jie stopped what he was doing and frowned.
In truth, although Wang Erde allowed his dog to commit murder and joined an evil cult, he did not harm anyone. He was still a good person, and should not be dead. ~ Furthermore, it is weird to discuss whether he is dead or not. ~
No matter how bad Wang Erde was, he had given gifts to Lin Jie and helped him with his business, they could be considered friends. For a friend to be gone just like that, Lin Jie would not easily believe it.
"You came to find me because of your father, right?" Lin Jie cleared his throat and asked.
Melissa was still in shock from the fact that Wang Erde had not been eliminated … ~ Mister Lin wants me to confirm if Wang Erde is dead or alive? Are you hinting that I, Wang Erde, am still alive? ~
Melissa clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her flesh.
She had difficulty breathing, an indescribable storm surged in her chest, she could not accept the fact that Wang Erde was still alive.
"I know about your father, but I hope that you can walk out of your sorrow, because you have an even bigger mission waiting for you." Lin Jie consoled her seriously: "The most important thing is for the deceased to see your growth, only then will he be gratified."
Melissa raised her head, and walked out from the fact that Wang Erde was still alive.
~ An even bigger mission? ~ ~ Could it be that I have to continue killing Wang Erde and take revenge for my father? ~ ~ Even if Mister Lin did not ask me to do it, I will still do it. ~ Melissa took a deep breath.
"I will let my father see my growth, I will let him know that I will complete what he cannot do, and I will do what he cannot do …" Melissa said while choking with sobs.
Lin Jie nodded his head and said: "Good child."
