Part 5. The unspoken implication

"It's me." Jasky heard the familiar voice and slowly lowered his hand, raising his head.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yI3sHWBRU
"You cleared the level?" Jasky asked with a puzzled look.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgwIX4VoB1
"Yeah!" Toosb took out the headpiece of the key and said, "Just as you said, the key parts were hidden in those giant appliances. I found them inside one of the telephones."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQtX3ZS2So
"But those telephones won't..."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2KRZSZoA3
"Are you talking about the insults? Don't be fooled by their size. The appliances themselves won't attack people. Just ignore the negative accusations and find the underlying message. I discovered the crucial telephone by listening to encouragement from my father in many of the handsets."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qUOMy8e8V
Toosb looked cautiously ahead as the loudspeakers of the record players approached again, causing Jasky's legs to tremble uncontrollably.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPyCFTHFgH
"Jasky." Toosb called his name directly for the first time and extended a hand to Jasky, saying, "The law of attraction. Even in adversity, stay positive so that your dreams can be attracted to you."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIzTfKQpgZ
"..." Jasky extended his hand and let Toosb pull him up.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb1ksx39TD
"To pass this level, you must gather the courage to confront them. When you're scared, think of Amisa's affirmations!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RPEkI0QGr
Jasky blushed and turned his face away. "I didn't expect you to be reliable too..."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVHFI8Mqkh
"Haha! I just went through a tough time myself. No time to waste. Are you ready?" Toosb noticed the floor starting to shake.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu61rTNWqR
Jasky nodded. "Okay."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU837Jem7nu
"Alright, on the count of three, let's charge forward! One, two, three, go!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPowXnzois
With unwavering determination, the two of them rushed forward, and the record players and radios responded by turning the volume to the maximum:
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAc9AImxQj
Fatso!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AWiCUszXL
Disgusting guy!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T5Yr7U4MX
Hey, fatty, get lost!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTvXT2rRut
The increasing insults fueled Jasky's insecurities, constantly tempting him to turn back. Toosb held onto his arm and encouraged him, saying, "Don't pay attention to them! Listen for the underlying message!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf9jbb2NMo
"The underlying message..." Jasky tried hard to compose himself, suppressing his negative emotions and carefully listening. Gradually, he began to faintly hear a tiny voice:
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fbGKeXE18
Do you still want me as your mom?
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt1fv6QIjL
He discovered a small inconspicuous record player hidden in the corner. Its voice sounded different from the other appliances' insults, so he dashed over and grabbed the small record player.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkXmU30w3k
"Did you find it?" Toosb caught up.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUXv6Kh8uZ
"Quiet." Jasky held the record player tightly and listened attentively.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunFmxcVP3c
"Child, do you know? Your father sacrificed his family and life for his dream of magician. Mom doesn't want you to follow the same path. Mom knows you have dreams, but the strict training in pastry every day is not to make you become a pastry chef necessarily. It's to ensure that on your journey towards your dreams, you have at least one skill to support yourself. You must become a responsible adult with shoulders to rely on. You're Mom's most precious son. Mom hasn't thrown away any of the magic props; they are safely kept in the cabinet. When the time is right, Mom will give them back to you and let you pursue your dreams. Please come out of your room, okay?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaQDohDutc
After the small tape recorder finished playing, the other speakers around automatically returned to their original positions and stopped moving. Jasky lowered his head in silence and retrieved the key component from under the small tape recorder's tape.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZSBuyP3rG
Amisa asked curiously from the side, "Did you cry?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWqA1rfnAw
"No," Jasky wiped away the tears that had accidentally escaped and stood up. "Let's go and help Amisa."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YBaV8EYkf
"Oh, oh! I just went to check on her. She said she would handle it herself and asked me to come and help you."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiND510Ilgz
"Ah... I can't believe she was worried about me."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsQhbL8m92
"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak!" At that moment, Mido flew over from the other side, biting onto Jasky's ear and pulling it back. "Hey! Did Amisa get the component?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTol1YTtzc
"What's wrong?" Seeing Mido's panicked expression, Jasky realized something was off. "Did something happen to Amisa?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxSr9ZlAfi
"I hope not!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnsCaLbYZl
The two hurriedly made their way through the maze of electronics in the middle and found Amisa entangled in the wires of headphones and microphones, with the third key component in her hand. The surrounding speakers continuously played insults towards her:
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhYnueqInl
"Amisa, your singing is amazing! Better than any kid in the world~"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xK3jrbMjh
"What else can you do besides dreaming every day? Do you think you're a princess?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSuRadLOoo
"Are you still releasing albums? You shameless thing."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygJc756npB
Amisa gave up struggling and let the headphones and microphones entangle her while the insults continued. An uncomfortable black glow emanated from her pockets.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1zyIjwttD
"This is strange. Didn't she get the component?" Jasky said nervously. At that moment, the surroundings shook once again. Jasky looked at the water tobacco clock and saw less than 30 seconds remaining.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNcAdb9ymw
"Birdie, hand me the component first. Silly bunny, go check if there's a Portal of Harmony nearby."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPSW5rNAJZ
"Huh? Aren't we going to save Amisa first?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyH0MUi9vq5
"We don't have time. Find the portal first, or we'll all die here."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7ixYwv9gy
"Okay, I got it."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMsbvTWH7P
"Squeak, squeak!" Mido took the key component from Amisa's weak hand and handed it to Jasky. Jasky quickly assembled the three key components. The ceiling was collapsing, and there were only 10 seconds left.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAbEwIP6UV
"There's no portal anywhere!" Jasky shouted anxiously.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBByP4SF1Eg
"It's here!" Jasky found a keyhole in the middle of a massive speaker assembly in the midst of the maze. He inserted the just assembled key, and with a click, a hidden door inside the speaker automatically opened. The floor started to crack, and there were less than 5 seconds remaining.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQ4nuuC4vJ
"Shy guy, save Amisa!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk4krvF53U
"Damn it! I can't make it!" The floor in the direction of Amisa collapsed completely. Jasky quickly took off his hat, intending to use his Star Point to leap over, but unexpectedly, the ceiling above also collapsed. Frantically, Jasky heard Bunny shout, "Watch out from above!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ra5lyTWzg
"Oh no!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjI87JELHK
At the critical moment, a large amount of water vapor emerged from the other end of the door and forcefully dragged Amisa, Jasky, and Rabbitus into the Portal of Harmony, with Mido following behind. Only one second remained on the clock.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGL9UqooSF
Rumbling and crashing sounds echoed as the "Realm of Earcolors" completely collapsed, and the massive speaker assembly sealed shut after sucking everyone inside, while the vast electronic jungle was crushed under the debris.
