North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 107

Roland continued: "Since you returned here from California, you have been living here with me. Here, my name is Idris Elba. Only some people will call me Roland Deshan. And your The name is Jimmy Yang, and your father's name is Sheng Yang.

Jack and I have lived here since the 80's when Jack left as an adult.Later, Ni also lived here until he left 2 years ago. "

(Here is the plot of the movie. The movie does not explain the time when Jack Chambers arrived in the world of the Dark Tower. Although it seems to be after 2010, but the time marked in the "Gunsman" novel, Jack is from 1977 New York, then the gunslinger who stayed in the current world after beating the man in black will be set in 1977. Please don’t get entangled in the modern content that appears in the movie, after all, it’s a different universe.)
"After I stayed in this world, Jack and I used his psychic ability to find the cracks created by the connection points between this world and other worlds, destroy the monsters near the cracks, let the cracks heal themselves, or destroy the controllers, Close the rift."

"When I met you and your father, it was when I closed the rift over there in Death Valley. The rift there connected to a world similar to the hell in your legend. Your father was attacked by a monster that came out of the rift and die."

"After I brought you back, I started teaching you how to use a gun. You have been learning for 8 years. The so-called revolver talent you mentioned just now should be the muscle memory left over from those years."

"Since Jack left, without the prophecy of the Shining, I have rarely found other cracks. Two years ago, I learned from the news that a monster appeared on a barren mountain on the other side of Big Bend National Park. I took You deal with it, and when you come back, you walk out of here with your gun, to this day."

Jimmy didn't make a sound, just quietly digesting what Roland just said.After Roland finished speaking, he stopped and didn't say anything more.

Jimmy: "I have a few questions. First, what monster killed my father?"

Roland: "A kind of little devil with two legs and four arms, and green flames will emerge from parts of the body."

Jimmy: "So, you brought me back after my father died, so what about my father's body?"

Roland: "I was swallowed by the green flames. I can't extinguish that kind of flame. After he told me to take care of you, he was swallowed by the flames."

Jimmy: "Just now you said that after you stayed in this world, did I hear you right? Where are you from?"

Roland: "Another world, a world similar to the Middle Ages. After we eliminated the enemy, we didn't go back. Jack should have told you about this. He is also a participant."

Jimmy: "Why did I leave? What the hell happened in Big Bend National Park? What made an 18-year-old leave the place where he had lived for 8 years to go wandering."

Roland was silent for a while, then shook his head, "It's over, now that you have become a sheriff, don't think about the past anymore."

Jimmy: "You just said that I'm not Jimmy, why? Don't lie, I can feel that you were really sure just now and wanted to shoot."

Roland: "You have lived here for 8 years. Although I haven't seen you for 2 years, you have changed too much, the way you speak."

Jimmy: "No, no, it's definitely not just that, you were indeed going to shoot just now."

Roland was silent again, and then said: "Although I don't know what happened, your soul is different."

Jimmy and Roland were silent at the same time. They sat on the sofa in a daze for a few minutes, and Roland spoke first.

Roland: "We were called gunslingers in the previous world. We resisted evil and protected the Dark Tower, relying on the guns in our hands and our will. In some cases, we can sense evil."

Roland looked at Jimmy: "Your soul exuded some tyrannical aura before. I can understand that you watched your father die at the hands of the devil, and now that aura has disappeared. But I can still feel your soul You are very powerful, in my opinion, you are very similar to Jack, except that his talent is Shining, and he can predict some scenes, but you, I don’t know.”

Jimmy knew his own affairs. He traveled from his previous life and directly took over this body. It was obvious that his soul did not match his body.

From his own experience, it can be deduced that this world is not safe. The world rift Roland just mentioned is likely to be real, so it is clear that he can pass through it. There must be a rift in Little Rock, and then Come here by yourself, and occupy Jimmy's original body as if his soul seized his home.

So what about Jimmy's original soul, disappeared or was he suppressed by his own soul after being taken away by him?

Jimmy: "So can you still see my soul now?"

Roland: "No, I can't see the appearance of the soul, I can only perceive evil and danger."

Jimmy continued to think about his own affairs, and did not continue to ask Roland questions.

Roland: "Jimmy, are you hungry? Stay and have lunch together."

Jimmy looked at Roland's face and nodded. This was the first time he called himself Jimmy besides meeting him.

The corner of Roland's mouth twitched obviously. No matter what, Jimmy had always lived with him for 8 years. Seeing this child again made Roland feel very happy.

Jimmy wasn't really Jimmy, but he didn't want to refuse Roland's offer either.And Jimmy is basically sure that Roland found something, but Roland has no intention of killing him now.

Roland might have been the shooter before, but now he looked like an old man with mostly white hair.

The two had a not-so-rich but very substantial lunch, including bread, fried fish steaks, barbecue and salad. The meat was obtained by Roland from hunting in the woods, and the fish was obviously fished or caught from the lake.

Roland's life is basically self-sufficient. Jimmy has a lot of food now, and this meal is still full.

While eating, the two talked about some things in Jimmy's previous life, which can be regarded as making up for Jimmy's previous experience.

After lunch, Jimmy went outside and stood by the lake looking out at the lake.He is not the former Jimmy, and he doesn't have any special feelings for Roland. He came here this time mainly to make up for some things in his body before, and he has almost understood it now.

The harvest this time is bigger than I imagined. I thought I just knew who my predecessor was, what experience I had before, and now I know the world rift and the actual danger. The reward is great, but it seems useless. Still an ordinary person, there is no way to deal with these demons or weird creatures from other worlds.

It seems that it is still necessary to learn from Roland how they dealt with it in the past, so that they can have the ability to protect themselves.
