Chapter 55 Dinner

The funniest thing in the world is that a speedster suffers from a heart attack.

He can no longer run because excessive exercise can lead to a life-threatening heart attack.

By the second season, the locomotive rarely ran, and by the third season, it couldn't even run fast.

He even used racist tactics to prevent himself from quitting the seven-man team.

But even so, he was still kicked out of the seven-man team by his motherland in the end, and his end was extremely miserable, probably a little better than the original Deep Sea.

If it weren't for the third season, he replaced it with another person's heart, eliminating the risk of heart disease.

That locomotive may never be able to run again in the future.

Apart from his own physique, he is no different from ordinary people.

How could such a locomotive win the shock wave?

How could he, who has a heart disease, compete with Shockwave?
Even if he takes a step back and dares to compete with Shockwave, if the Watt Group knows that he has a heart disease... can he still stay in the Seven-Man Team?

Kevin knew that it was a bit despicable for him to use other people's illnesses against others.

But in such a world, it doesn't matter whether you have the means or not. What matters is whether you can live well.

Locomotive is now completely on the side of the motherland. If Locomotive is not eliminated, who knows whether Locomotive will come to trouble Kevin in the future.

Speedsters are very dangerous beings. Before being prepared, Kevin did not have the ability to deal with speedsters.

So you can only use the extremely fast ones to deal with the extremely fast ones.

It was great talking to Shockwave.

Everything was perfect except for the orange soda that really scared Kevin.

By the time we came out of the bar, it was already evening.

As usual, Kevin checked the skill points first.

I went to visit the survivors this morning, and Kevin got a skill point as expected. Now talking to Shockwave, perhaps because of the impact on the plot, the skill point increased by 1.

The new skill points obtained plus the remaining nine after clicking [Accelerated Healing] before, Kevin now has eleven skill points on hand.

Eleven, which is still five short of reaching LV5 level skills.

"I should be able to get one or two by accompanying Annie to the Faith Expo in two days... Now, well, let's talk to Kimiko."

Participating in the changed plot can also earn skill points.

And Kimiko is now Kevin's long-term vote count, at least until her skill points are drained by Kevin.

After thinking for a while, Kevin took out his mobile phone and looked up Annie's phone number.

Kimiko's residence has not yet been found, mainly because it is not suitable for Kimiko to live alone, but it is not suitable to stay at Kevin's house.

So now Kimiko is at Anne's house.

Thinking that he hadn't had dinner yet and could just go to Anne's house for dinner, Kevin dialed Anne's phone number.

As a result, not long after the call was made, Annie hung up on Kevin.

Kevin: "?"

……

The phone vibrated again. Anne, who was sitting on the sofa and staring at the TV with Kimiko, took a quick look and stopped paying attention.

Kimiko huddled on the sofa hugging her legs. Perhaps the vibration of the sound was too irritating, and Kimiko's eyes were attracted.

She looked at the vibrating mobile phone on the table and gestured in sign language.

'Won't you answer? '

Kimiko uses her own original sign language, which she and her brother figured out together during their long career as terrorists.

It was different from normal sign language. It took Annie and Kevin a lot of time to understand some of the meanings in Kimiko's sign language.

Seeing the confusion expressed by Kimiko, Annie let out a long breath.

After thinking for a long time, I suddenly felt that my behavior of refusing to answer the phone was stupid.

Feeling discouraged at the moment, he reached for his phone and chose to answer it.

"Hey……?"

"Annie? Are you okay?"

"It's okay... I was... um, taking a shower just now, so I didn't hear the phone ringing. Is something okay?" Annie gave an excuse casually.

Kimiko, who knew Annie was by her side from the beginning to the end, blinked when she heard this and tilted her head slightly to express her doubts.

Anne subconsciously raised her hand and put her finger in front of her lips, making a 'shush' gesture to signal Kimiko to be quiet.

Only later did he remember that Kimiko couldn't speak, so he put his hand down again.

"Bath? Now?"

Kevin on the other end of the phone was a little surprised.

Although it's getting late now, it's not time to take a shower and rest. After all, most people may not have had dinner at this time.

Anne, who lied to Kevin, didn't want to explain more on this matter. She skipped the topic and asked quickly:

"What's up?"

"It's nothing. I just thought I'd like to have dinner with you after I finished my work. You shouldn't mind."

"!You want to come over now?"

"Well, I'm walking over to your house. If it's inconvenient for you..."

"Convenient! Well, I mean, I have nothing to do here. I just want to discuss with you the matters that need to be paid attention to at the Faith Expo. How long will it take for you to arrive?"

"…ten minutes?"

"Understood!"

Hearing that Kevin was about to come, Annie took a deep breath, quickly hung up the phone, and then rushed to the bathroom as fast as the wind.

The phone fell on the sofa, and Annie's figure had disappeared.

Looking at the cell phone dropped on the sofa, and then looking at Anne who had already run into the bathroom, Kimiko frowned slightly in confusion, but soon stopped looking at it and returned her gaze to the TV.

Although she didn't know what happened, it seemed like it had nothing to do with her.

Might as well keep watching TV.

……

After hanging up the phone, busy signals came one after another. Kevin looked slightly confused as he listened to the busy signals.

At first, when Annie didn't answer the phone for the first time, Kevin thought something happened to Annie. After all, he asked Annie to contact Ekiel, which itself was not a very safe thing.

But then Annie answered the phone, and through the conversation with Annie, Kevin felt that Annie seemed a little sulky.

But as soon as she heard that she had passed by, she seemed to suddenly not be angry again...

What's going on?
Kevin thought hard about Annie's reaction.

Was it because he left suddenly today that made her angry?
But I originally agreed that I was just going to buy a cross, and I didn’t say that I wanted to go to the movies.

I have already asked Ashley to make an appointment with Shockwave, and there is no way I can just push him away.

Besides, Annie has always been very generous, so she shouldn't be angry over such a trivial matter.

Hmm... It should just be a bad mood occasionally. After all, a girl's mood is unpredictable.

After thinking for a long time, Kevin couldn't figure out the reason. Kevin took it for granted that maybe Annie was just in a bad mood occasionally.

This is also normal. Sometimes Kevin himself will be in a bad mood for no reason, feel irritable, and have a bad attitude towards anyone.

For example, he would be like this when he was looking for jewelry, antiques, or anything on the bottom of the sea but couldn't find anything.

It wasn't a big deal at all. Kevin stopped thinking about it, took out his cell phone to locate it, and walked slowly towards Annie's house.

I took the subway and walked some distance.

It took about fifteen minutes for Kevin to finally arrive at Annie's door.

Standing at the door and knocking on the door, Kevin didn't wait long before the door was already opened.

Behind the door, Annie was standing there in her daily home clothes, with a bath towel wrapped around her head to protect her hair. She stood casually at the door. Seeing Kevin coming, she said without warning:
"Coming? Come in."

"..."

There was the smell of shampoo in the air, and feeling the fresh scent of Annie's body that had not yet faded, Kevin looked a little dazed.

Only then did he remember that Annie did say on the phone that she had just taken a shower.

So isn't it a little... inappropriate to come here now?
