Please Stop Summoning Me! - CH 51

Café.

After hiding the body, Shen Yi changed into his pajamas and decided not to think about so many things.

” Finally, I can rest properly tonight.”

Shen Yi smiled at the mirror and planned to go to bed on time today. It doesn’t matter, even if the Quiet Words remnants had not been cleaned up, the rest would be handled by the Anti-Magic Bureau.

He was not an investigator, so there was no need for him to worry too much about it.

Turning off the cafe’s lights, he went back to his room.

As usual, he brushed his teeth and washed, took off his jacket, and sat on the bed for a while.

With a sigh of relief, he lay down on the not-so-large bed.

Closing his eyes, prepared to zone off.

But for some reason, he couldn’t fall asleep despite being to bed early.

Is there something else that hasn’t been done?

It seems not… Anyway, when it’s time to sleep… just sleep well.

I still can’t sleep.

Why can’t I sleep?

After tossing and pondering about it for a while, he finally understood why he couldn’t sleep.

Because he was concerned about the two investigators, wondering if they had been attacked by the enemy.

Just like Aina, they might be injured or worst case scenario die if attacked by the enemy .

Since coming to this world, he had no family, no friends, no past, and became nothing.

All the things worth nostalgia were lost in the hometown.

The loneliness was more bitter than pure coffee, with an endless aftertaste that could not be dispersed.

It wasn’t that he didn’t notice it at first, but he didn’t dare to consider it.

But now, it was different. He no longer had the past but has the “present”.

Shen Yi sat on the bed and recalled the high school girl at noon, who had a lively conversation with himself and finally went back in tears.

“What did she say . … ”

No matter how much he tried, he couldn’t seem to remember what the other party said.

She seemed to be talking about something in school …… About her and her front desk, well, it was just some ordinary quarrel.

That’s all.

Ordinary people’s thoughts, ordinary people’s lives, isn’t that the case?

To put it bluntly, his purpose has always been to live a peaceful-ordinary life.

“……”

Shen Yi raised his head, looking at the ceiling very familiar.

He seemed to remember what George, Aina, Su Ling, and Byron had said and done, and would even repeatedly recall the few scenes where he was summoned.

The memory was so fresh that he had not even forgotten it a little.

He knew ‌some things were different from the very beginning. Maybe he had realized it earlier when he saw the seriously injured Aina, but he didn’t think much about it and concealed himself.

Unknown to him, his world has already established a close connection with the world inside.

Maybe if he had reported it earlier, instead of waiting a few days for the two investigators to come to his door, the Chaos Remnant Order wouldn’t have been badly damaged and Aina would not have almost died.

Fortunately, after handing over the information, the Quiet Word’s power in Beland was basically wiped out, and the city would no longer be in danger.

Maybe it’s a good life now, reestablishing some “connection” between Aina and George, and even Su Ling and Byron.

People always need to be needed, and without certain “connections” with others, people could not live in society.

Eventually, they would be consumed by loneliness and emptiness.

He still remembered at the time of summoning when he saw Byron’s father-daughter embracing each other he was so envious, now he would not be so envious anymore.

He laughed out and said to himself, “No wonder I can’t sleep, with all this in my mind. It’s indeed true that people tend to start thinking about life in the middle of the night.”

He simply leaned back on the headboard, took the ring off his hand, and played with it carefully in his hand.

“Can’t sleep.”

After playing for a while, he got up from the bed and left the back room, and went to the cafe that had been messed up by the monster.

Instead of turning on the lights, he just sat in a window chair, looking more comfortable in the dark.

In the darkness, he noticed a figure approaching from outside the cafe.

The figure looked more familiar as it neared. But due to darkness, her expression couldn’t see clearly, only to see the other party looked a little lost and helpless.

He subconsciously greeted her with a smile: “Welcome! I remember you left less than two hours, right? Where is George?”

Su Ling didn’t answer him, and her delicate face was hard to see in the dark.

Shen Yi stood up from the chair, reached out to the wall, and turned on the light. When he looked back, Su Ling’s expression took aback him.

Under the lights, Su Ling’s face looked completely bewildered and overwhelmed, like a little girl who had just received a birthday present but had accidentally lost it.

She was remorseful.

He had never seen such an expression on Su Ling’s face before.

The few times they met, she had always shown a kind of ice beauty temperament, occasionally showing a bit of greed for money and delicious food, yet with a certain stubbornness and purposefulness in her bones.

“What’s wrong?” By her expression itself, he knew something was wrong and couldn’t help but ask.

Su Ling sat down in his seat in a daze and was silent for a long time.

“He’s dead.”

Shen Yi did not react for a moment and then understood who Su Ling was referring.

First, there was some consternation, followed by a surge of emotion, and the fragments of George’s memory emerged in Shen Yi’s mind one by one.

Less than two hours ago, the man was still sitting here, laughing and chatting with himself. Looks like nothing unusual, still was that kind of lazy uncle look.

Shen Yi knew one thing in his heart.

For six months he was the only one who could count as his friend, he also cared about Aina, but she was not a peer to him.

The only person who could be regarded as a friend was George, who often came to the cafe with “other intentions”.

But the man who had been running around and working for the city was now dead.

Even though he never showed it once, in his heart he had always admired this person who lived for everyone.

After crossing over, he had nothing and finally re-established a new connection, but now one of them was broken.

His tone sank, and asked calmly, calmer than usual.

“Quiet Word?”

Su Ling squeezed her hands tightly and nodded.

Shen Yi stood in place for a long time, lowered his head for a while, tilted his head again, and finally calmly made a cup of coffee and brought it to Su Ling in his seat.

He stared at the girl in front of him.

“Drink it and feel at ease, then …… What do you want to do when you come to my place?”

Su Ling slowly looked at him and said firmly, “He is my partner, I want to ask you to help me take revenge.”

She had decided long ago, “As the price, I will do anything without violating my principles.”

Shen Yi extended his right hand and gently placed it on the back of Su Ling’s faintly trembling hand.

“You don’t need to say that.”

“Because George is also my friend.”

After a pause, he continued, “Tell me everything you know in detail.”

Su Ling nodded her head, and she told everything she knew.

Regarding the death of George, it was confirmed that the mastermind was Yare Villard.

There was a lot of information coming out of the headset, and the Anti-Magic Bureau had not yet concluded the last arrest and had already mobilized en masse again to search for the remnants of Quiet Words throughout the in and out of the city.

Even if Shen Yi left it alone, Yare probably couldn’t escape.

Shen Yi listened silently in his seat, knowing how George had died and knowing that Byron had been exposed.

He took out a piece of paper from the back room, wrote ‌an address on it, and handed it to Su Ling.

Shen Yi said beside her: “Go to this villa to find a man named Byron, tell him this is ‘silent language, a request from the Mist’, he will help you… find a way to revive George.”

Resurrection?

Su Ling looked at the man in front of her with a shocked expression.

Resurrection was forbidden, and, only an Extraterrestrial god could do it, but the man in front of her said “resurrection” out lightly.

‘Dose he really has a way to revive George?’

Shen Yi saw her expression and asked, “What, are you afraid? Or are you unwilling to do it?”

He already knew the Corona Church and the Anti-Magic Bureau strictly forbid that resurrection.

Even though Su Ling was an investigator, if she broke this taboo and resurrected a dead man, she would be committing a felony second only to summoning an extra-worldly god.

Once caught, the best outcome would be life in prison, more likely to be “purged” by the coronal church.

But he still chose to let Su Ling personally go to Byron.

On the one hand, he wanted to know what kind of justice Su Ling’s principle of justice was, and on the other hand, only in this way could he completely trust Su Ling in the future.

Su Ling clenched her hands and spoke: “This is not against my principles, I just …… can’t tolerate the evil things.”

She looked at Shen Yi and said, “I will find Byron and ask him to help resurrect George.”

Shen Yi’s voice remained calm, “I will help George get revenge, but I also need your help. You must follow all my instructions and tell me all about the Anti-Magic Bureau.”

Su Ling nodded lightly, she could actually feel real anger coming from him.

The man in front of her was completely different from before.

She still remembered her father saying, that ‘the extra-worldly creatures might be no different from normal people in normal times, but at the moment of necessity, they would reveal their monster fangs and make their enemies taste the ultimate pain and terror’.

At the thought of this, Su Ling trembled a little.

“Thank you.” She nodded and left the cafe.

After seeing Su Ling off, Shen Yi hung the old-colored cross on his chest, put the shadow mask in the shadow, and entered the night from the cafe.

He was heading to the port near Beland, Beland Thames Port.

According to the information given by Su Ling, the Quiet Word’s followers were scattered and fled everywhere, but an accurate “prophet” of the Anti-Magic Bureau said – Yare fled to the port, apparently he wanted to escape through the Thames waterway.

He stopped at a street lamp not far away. His appearance gradually changed into another.

He knew very well in his heart that, from the day he was summoned, the peaceful life was gone forever.

For a long time, he wanted to be alone in the world and solve troubles passively. He almost never thought about taking the initiative to investigate various things, his only thought was just to hide and protect himself.

However, he had long been the very center of the whirlpool of the inner world.

He will be summoned again and again, not only the quiet words, in the future there would be more troubles to come.

Shen Yi took a deep breath.

Su Ling felt right, now Shen Yi was indeed very angry.

George was his first and even only friend after crossing.

As for whether he could be revived, it was not at all clear.

What if he could not be resurrected?

Most likely, this regular customer of the cafe just passed away forever.

George’s death was not his fault, Shen Yi knew this very well.

The people who were responsible for this were those who think they could act with impunity and had no regard for the pain and sorrow of the innocent, and who can trample everything underfoot for the sake of their selfishness.

They hurt Aina, attacked him with monsters, killed George, and tried to sacrifice everyone in the city.

If it goes on like this, then more people you know would be victimized in the future.

So, what he had to do – was to crush all of this incorrigible trash into dregs.

Shen Yi took a deep breath and something in his eyes was different.

The fine rain fell slightly, and the blurred figure slowly disappeared from the light of the street lamp into the darkness.
