Kim grabbed Amanda's arm. " Amanda...!"
"What are you worried about, Kim?" Amanda winked at the blond-haired handsome guy. "I think we just happened to run into a kind person."
The blond-haired handsome guy seized the opportunity and said, "Yes, my name is David. I grew up in Paris and I know every place here. Maybe I can be your tour guide for the whole trip?"
Kim shook his head warily in refusal. "No, thank you, Mr. David, we can manage on our own!"
Unexpectedly, Amanda immediately disagreed. "No! We need to! David, please wait a moment, I need to talk to her!"
The blond-haired handsome man gave a gentlemanly bow with his hand on his chest. "No problem, beautiful lady."
Amanda pulled Kim aside and whispered, "Hey, honey, what are you doing?!"
Kim swung his arm, shoving Amanda's hand away. He crossed his arms and said angrily, "That's what I should be saying, Amanda!"
"Do you even know what you just did?!"
"How could you so easily believe a stranger?!"
"What if he's a bad guy?!"
Amanda said dismissively, "There aren't that many bad people in the world. Besides, this is our first time in Paris, okay?"
Kim remains steadfast in his belief. "My father always warned me, Amanda, never to easily trust those who approach you unsolicited!"
"Your father, that old fogey?!"
" Amanda! He's my father, okay?!"
"Sorry!" Amanda obediently raised her hands in apology.
"But Kim, this is Paris! The most famous 'City of Romance'!"
"Don't you think David is very handsome?!"
"I feel this is fate arranged by God! Love has arrived, my dear!"
"What's not yours is mine!"
Kim stared wide-eyed in disbelief. "What?! We just got off the plane! Where did this love come from?!"
Amanda turned her head and glanced at David, the blond-haired man, who was standing still.
David smiled and nodded at her.
Amanda responded with a smile, then turned back and said, " Kim, since you don't like David, he's mine now!"
"Please help me, please, my dear!"
Kim was stunned. She asked uncertainly, "Are you serious?!"
Amanda nodded emphatically. "Yes!"
"Alright!" Kim nodded helplessly. "Just this once!"
Amanda happily opened her arms and hugged her. "Thank you, darling!"
Kim shook his head helplessly.
The two women walked hand in hand with the blond-haired handsome man toward the airport terminal.
Just then, Richard Reynolds came running over, sweating profusely and pulling his suitcase.
He watched in horror as his dream girl got into a car driven by a strange, blond-haired man, and in shock and anger, he clutched his head and shouted, "Oh no! This shouldn't be happening!"
Not far away, Richard watched the Spirituality resonance emanating from him, somewhat speechless.
Good news, this counterpart doesn't seem like a bad guy to Alter Ego ~
Bad news, one look at him and you'd know he's a pathetic simp.
Richard Reynolds looked around anxiously, trying to find a taxi to catch up with them.
Taxis, which are usually a common sight, have vanished without a trace.
"Fuck! Why am I so unlucky?!"
Richard walked silently to his side and placed his hand on the other's shoulder.
Hey buddy~
Richard Reynolds turned his head to look, and in just one glance, he was captivated by Richard's deep gaze.
A moment later, he shook his head and looked at Richard with disbelief.
"So, you are my counterpart from Parallel World?!"
Richard nodded. "Yes~"
"Have I now superimposed your Spirituality upon me?"
Richard nodded again. "Yes~"
"I've become stronger, but I'm not bald?!"
Richard's lips twitched. "Yes~"
Richard Reynolds (hereinafter referred to as Reynolds ) hurriedly pulled up his short sleeves and flexed his biceps.
"..."
Looking at his arms, still as thin as ever, he showed a disappointed expression. "Didn't you say I'd gotten stronger? Why am I still so weak?!"
Richard chuckled, "Soon, don't panic~"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Reynolds' eyes rolled back and he was about to collapse.
Richard reached out and caught him.
With a swift movement, he vanished, taking Reynolds with him.
On a deserted island, Reynolds wakes up to find himself alone on a beach.
He got up and looked at the boundless sea, his face full of confusion, and said, "Where am I? What just happened? Why am I here?!"
Richard's voice came from not far away. "Hey, buddy, wanna get a fish?"
Reynolds hurriedly looked in the direction of the voice. "It's you! That Parallel World counterpart?!"
Richard sat on a large rock, roasting a sea fish with an orange fireball that floated in mid-air.
Fifteen grilled sea fish were stuck in the sand under the rocks.
'Gurgle~' Reynolds ' stomach rumbled loudly as he smelled the aroma of grilled fish wafting through the air.
"..."
Richard chuckled and shook his head, "Come and eat, your body, which has just evolved, desperately needs to replenish its nutrients."
Driven by hunger, Reynolds hurried over and said shyly, "Um... thank you..."
Richard laughed and said, "You can call me Richard, or you can call me Big Brother. I'm several years older than you."
"Big brother!" Reynolds immediately said.
Richard pointed, and the grilled fish stuck in the ground flew up automatically.
"Eat up, your stomach is already rumbling!"
Reynolds couldn't resist reaching for a skewer of grilled fish and eagerly taking a big bite of the fish.
'Chew~chew~chew~'
"Delicious! Big brother's grilled fish is really good!"
After finishing one, he reached out and picked up another.
'Chew~chew~chew~'
"This smells amazing!"
In no time at all, he had devoured fifteen grilled fish.
"Hiccup~"
Reynolds clutched his stomach and let out a burp.
After eating, my brain came back online.
"Oh no, I completely forgot about Kim!"
He glanced at the boundless sea and cried out urgently, "Brother! Quickly take me back to Paris!"
Richard ate his grilled fish slowly and asked, "You really like that girl?"
"She's my goddess!" Reynolds said without hesitation. "Dude! Stop dawdling! I saw her and Amanda get into that blond-haired guy's car at the airport entrance!"
"That blond-haired guy doesn't look like a good person! I have to find them before Kim gets into danger!"
"Your eyesight is pretty good," Richard complimented, then chuckled, "Too late. Five minutes ago, that blond-haired bastard David sold them to the Albanian Gang."
"This gang seems to be one that injects drugs and controls female prostitution."
"What?!" Reynolds panicked immediately, shouting urgently, "Big brother! Quick, quick! Take me back!"
"I know you're in a hurry," Richard said calmly, eating his grilled fish. "Chew... chew... but don't rush."
But how could Reynolds not be anxious when his goddess was sold to a prostitution gang?!
He paced anxiously in circles, saying, "No, brother! This is a matter of life and death! How can I not be worried?!"
"What if Kim is injected with drugs?!"
"What if Kim is forced into prostitution?!"
"What if Kim chooses to resist and gets captured and beaten by the gang?!"
"What if Kim..."
Richard was getting a headache from listening to this kid's endless "what if" like a reincarnation of Tang Sanzang.
"Stop, stop, stop!" he shouted hastily, shaking his head helplessly. "I don't even have a boyfriend yet, and he's already spouting 'kem kem' all the time..."
"Besides, no matter how anxious you are, can you be more anxious than someone else's elderly father?"
New York.
Old Bryan had just finished a security job, returned home when he suddenly received a phone call.
He glanced at the caller ID and immediately answered, " Kim?"
Immediately, Kim low, pleading voice came through the phone:
"Daddy, save me!"
