Chapter 790: Chapter 790

Yusuf Zuck remembered that when Yoko Ono was sixteen, she was very adorable and pure, like a blank sheet of paper that invoked infinite affection. So although he had been to all corners of the earth these past few years, he had never forgotten her.

After all, she had made a profound impression on him.

However, when he saw Yoko Ono again, although she continued to act cute and expressed her longing and deep love for him, the act seemed mostly put on.

Love that comes from the heart and love that is just for show are completely different. When love comes from the heart, there is a resonance between the two parties, but now Yusuf Zuck only felt bewildered and sighed.

Time is a butcher’s knife; her grapes had ripened, and her black fungus had darkened, whereas originally, the grapes and black fungus were just sour buds.

Yoko Ono did not understand the meaning of this metaphor, and Yusuf Zuck was not in the mood to explain it to her. So, while Yoko Ono was still acting cute, Yusuf Zuck’s telekinesis had already stormed into her mind.

"What are you here for?" Yusuf Zuck asked calmly.

"Yoko is under the secret orders of the Railing Flower Society and the Sun Goddess Society to get close to Melvin Zuck, to stay by your side, to become your woman, to investigate everything about you..."

"Oh..." Yusuf Zuck sighed softly, as calm as expected. Just as he had imagined, it was indeed so!

"Do you still love me?" Yusuf Zuck asked after some thought.

"Yoko has dedicated everything to the Greater Empire of Japan. Yoko will not fall in love with any man!" Yoko Ono seemed to display a trace of coldness!

She was originally a blank sheet of paper, but now, that paper had been tainted black. Brainwashed with indoctrination, she probably saw herself as nothing more than a tool for completing missions.

Yusuf Zuck did not speak again and just stared at her for a long time.

It could have been half an hour, or perhaps an hour, but Yusuf Zuck neither asked another question nor spoke again, and Yoko also remained blank-eyed, kneeling there.

"Huh~" After an indeterminate amount of time, Yusuf Zuck suddenly let out a faint sigh as he recalled every moment he spent with her, the memory of her adorable and innocent smile, and saw how helpless she looked when crying in panic.

When he gently touched Yoko Ono’s face, she instantly came to her senses.

"Melvin Zuck..." Yoko did not realize she had been hypnotized, though she felt her mind had wandered for a moment, that was all and she was unaware that a significant amount of time had passed.

"Yoko, do you know? You are very adorable, I really, truly liked you!"

"Although I despise your country and your people, your presence has made me somewhat fond of your country and people. After all, your country and people still possess pure and kind girls like you, so it’s an honor for your country and your people!"

"However, time seems indeed to be a butcher’s knife; it has not just ripened you, but also stained you..."

"Melvin Zuck, what are you talking about? Melvin Zuck, don’t you want Yoko anymore? Yoko is ready to start a new life with Melvin Zuck. Yoko doesn’t want to leave Melvin Zuck..." Yoko continued to play her part.

Yusuf Zuck suddenly realized she was actually not Yoko anymore; she was just a machine, the Yoko of the past had long since died. This content belongs to ɴovelfire.net

"I have completely lost my love for your country!" Yusuf Zuck suddenly let go of Yoko’s chin and stood up.

Yoko stood lost and unsure of herself, as if she did not understand what she had done wrong.

"Yoko, do you know? Back then, I really liked you, and even now, I haven’t forgotten you. I have always thought that one day, I would bring you to my side!"

"Melvin Zuck, Yoko is willing..." Yoko Ono cried.

"But... time has erased it all, Yoko... perhaps in your heart, you also hate me, don’t you?"

"What’s wrong with you, Melvin Zuck? What are you trying to say?" Yoko Ono kept shaking her head, crying relentlessly.

"What I am trying to say is that it’s all in the past. The Yoko Ono in my heart will always be there, never to be forgotten, so you can only stay hidden in my heart." Yusuf Zuck gently pressed his hand onto Yoko Ono’s head.

Yoko lifted her head; she sensed danger, extreme danger, so her body started to tremble: "Are you... are you going to kill Yoko?"

"I just don’t want to see you living like a machine anymore, don’t want you to become a walking corpse, so Yoko, it’s time to end this..." Yusuf Zuck looked into Yoko’s eyes: "Don’t resist, I can see the murderous intent and resistance in your eyes, this is the current you, so you are not my Yoko!"

With a "buzzing" sound, as Yoko Ono was shocked or perhaps thinking of a countermeasure, Yusuf Zuck’s Golden Core fire instantly enveloped her body.

"In this world, only I can kill you, and only I am allowed to kill you."

"Boom— " Just as the burning Yoko Ono didn’t have time to scream, her body had become transparent, and the next second, it was entirely consumed by flame, not even leaving ashes behind.

Yusuf Zuck released another flame to incinerate her clothes and handbag as well, then he stood up and strode out.

To tell the truth, his heart was incredibly heavy. The pain of personally killing a girl he once loved was something no one could understand!

But she... was beyond help. Letting her live, she would only be a walking dead. Letting her live, her end would likely be extremely tragic.

And he didn’t want anyone else to kill her, so he had to do it himself. He preserved the memory of her from the past, and it would always remain, never to forget, but she could only become part of the past.

It might be the education he received, or maybe he watched too many war resistance movies as a child. He also always liked watching news about World War II history and such, so he truly hated that country.

Yoko Ono was the only Japanese he didn’t hate, but time, that butcher’s knife, had tainted her, so he could only end it all in this way, in Yusuf Zuck’s own way!

The weather in August is the rainy season, and the weather in the capital city changes abruptly. When he went downstairs, a light rain began to fall from the night sky, which soon turned into a downpour.

Yusuf Zuck walked on the street, letting the rain soak him through, feeling very bad and wanting to find someone to drink with.

However, at this time, Fleur Carson would likely be with her husband and child, Marlon Shepherd probably wouldn’t have time to mess around with him, and Luciano, Alfredo Meskill, and old Xu were all in the Middle Sea, so he had no one to accompany him for a drink.

Unwittingly, as he walked forward, he found himself on the rural road leading to the Wengquan Villa. From afar, he could see that the Wengquan Villa was lit by only a few red lanterns. The place, devoid of life, seemed to turn into a haunted house.

He didn’t continue forward but mechanically turned to the southeast and then his body levitated into the air.

About a few minutes later, at Zuck Family Cemetery in Yanggu County, Yusuf Zuck’s clothes were still damp, but he sat down with a plop and then stared at that grave, at the photograph on the tombstone of a woman in a cheongsam, smiling.

She seemed to be smiling at him, beckoning him, calling him over, asking him to come and steal her away!

"Ariel Higgins, I miss you..." He suddenly began to sob uncontrollably!
