Chapter 393: The art of recognizing people and social skills
After a moment of induction, Su Fan lowered his gaze.
There's nothing to gain except seeing a bunch of feel-good demonstrations.
Normally, Su Fan might have counterattacked with a small mental shock out of boredom, but now there were more important things to do for him.
Meng Tou will only convey specific pictures when Su Fan himself is in danger of being killed.
In other cases, only a little response will be given.
And if there is a warning, nothing good will happen.
As the saying goes, it is a blessing, not a curse, but it is a curse that cannot be avoided.
I have already determined that this matter is related to me, so it is better to take the initiative.
But after this circle, Su Fan didn't notice anything wrong except for a few snarling humans.
Now, all we can do is probably wait and see.
With Su Fan thinking this, he took a glass of ginger ale from the plate held by the waiter next to him and handed it to Theresia beside him.
"Drink first, and then go outside to watch the scenery."
Theresia took the drink from Su Fan's hand, took a small sip, and then frowned beautifully.
But she did cherish food as she said before.
Even if you don’t like it, drink it in small sips.
When Su Fan saw this, he only found it quite funny. It felt like watching a child drink Chinese medicine.
After drinking, Theresia suddenly spoke.
"Mr. Piero asked me to tell you that when he saw his boss, he wanted to go and say hello."
Su Fan turned his head when he heard this, and soon found the tall and fat figure in the crowd. Opposite him, there was a figure, raising a glass with one hand, putting the other hand in his pocket, nodding from time to time.
Presumably the latter was the boss who invited him here.
The other person looked about the same age, about fifty years old, and was wearing a suit, but compared to the bloated Piero in front of him, he looked much more elegant.
Faced with the attentive subordinates, he also responded very helpfully.
But in the middle of the sunken eye sockets, there was a hint of sinisterness.
During the conversation, the man looked at Su Fan and Theresia from time to time.
Piero must have introduced the two of them to the other party.
Su Fan conveniently took a piece of food with a bamboo skewer and put it into his mouth, but he listened to Theresia on the side.
"I don't really like the way that person looks at us. It always feels like he is planning something."
"Oh?"
Su Fan raised his eyebrows.
He didn't expect Theresa's intuition to be so sharp.
"Where did you see it?"
"There once was a priest who came to the monastery. He was very annoying. Their eyes looked very similar."
Theresia paused after speaking.
"So I was right?"
"That's right."
Su Fan answered simply.
"Judging from his appearance, this guy is a ruthless character who will do whatever it takes to get the upper hand."
"Facial appearance?"
Theresa was a little confused when she heard this term for the first time.
"Haven't you heard of it? The art of recognizing people and social skills."
As Su Fan spoke, he stretched out his hand and put the other hand behind his back.
Theresia seemed to understand, and stretched out her hand to shake Su Fan's hand.
Physiognomy sounds mysterious and mysterious, but the actual analysis is somewhat similar to big data statistics.
Phase comes from the heart.
Many people make a mistake. It is not the appearance that leads to the personality, but the personality that leads to the formation of the corresponding appearance.
His face is fleshless and mean, his eyes are cold and selfish...
For example, the man who spoke to Piero had these characteristics at the same time.
On the surface, he looks quite kind and friendly, but the sinister and fierce look between his eyebrows cannot be concealed no matter what.
"Perhaps he just regarded Piero as a springboard to establish a transcendent existence and gave him some empty promises."
After Theresa heard this, she subconsciously looked at Piero who was chatting with her.
"Why, are you worried that he will be taken advantage of and that in the end it will be all in vain?"
"No."
Theresia shook her head.
"I just suddenly understood why Piero brought us."
Naturally, she would not think that Piero, who had worked within the police system for many years, would be a simple character.
If things are really as Su Fan said, then both parties can only say that they have their own agenda.
One of them almost lured an unfamiliar exorcist to support him, while the other wanted to be a white wolf with nothing to show for it.
"In that case, Su, why did you accept his invitation and come to the banquet?"
"You mean, I know the other party has other agendas, right?"
Su Fan stretched his waist and spoke calmly.
"It always takes an opportunity to get to know each other. In most cases, it is driven by interests. This is not surprising."
"He hopes that I can appear at the banquet as a bargaining chip with his boss. We also use this opportunity to complete our London sightseeing plan."
"And we didn't do anything for him from beginning to end. This deal is quite a bargain."
While Su Fan was speaking, his body moved slightly to the side.
This seemingly inadvertent move happened to block the sight of a man not far away who was staring closely at Theresia.
Discovered?
The man subconsciously came up with such an idea, but was quickly rejected.
Except for extraordinary people with enhanced perception, ordinary people can rarely detect the spying at this distance.
What's more, the target is not him.
The reason why the man is so clear is because he himself has some unknown special ability.
Relying on this specialty, he now lives the life he dreamed of before, surrounded by beautiful women every day.
But human desire is like a boulder on a high mountain. Once it starts, it can never be stopped.
As the enjoyment threshold continues to increase, men's tastes become more and more sophisticated.
He has long lost his feelings for ordinary women who desire money and power, and has turned to pursuing higher-level prey.
Now, just that one has appeared.
The people who can appear here are either rich or noble. The girl is dressed cheaply. She should be a special person invited to accompany her.
It is clear that she is extraordinary but does not have any power fluctuations. Coupled with the characteristics of a virgin, she must be a clergyman like a nun.
Excellent.
The man was excited, his brown eyes bursting with undisguised lust.
Just when he was filled with fantasies about how to stun the other party and let him control him, the black-haired young man accompanying him suddenly blocked his sight, perfectly covering the beautiful figure.
The man cursed secretly and was about to move to another location to continue peeping when he felt a chill.
It was as if a slender needle of ice penetrated the top of his head and sank into his spinal cord.
There are enemies!
He was shivering violently and looked around for the source of the coldness, but found nothing.
Turning his head to look, he saw that the window beside him had been opened at some point, and the cold wind was blowing in waves, pouring into his collar and cuffs.
It's the wind.
Thinking this, the man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chris!"
It happened that someone not far away called him to join him for a drink, so the man hurriedly raised his glass and went.
"This is the extraordinary person I recently met, Chris."
The middle-aged man with a beard introduced the tall and fat man next to him.
"Mr. Chris, welcome to meet you. I am Piero, Mr. Cullen's subordinate."
The fat man stretched out his hand, but what awaited him was Chris's cold shoulder. Chris didn't choose to shake hands with him, he just sneered and stopped talking.
This behavior immediately brought the originally harmonious atmosphere to a freezing point.
Being humiliated in public, Piero himself didn't look good, but he didn't have an attack. He quickly adjusted his expression and retracted his palm with a smile.
"It seems that Mr. Chris has quite a personality."
While speaking, Piero gently shook his wife Chloe's palm with his other hand to tell her not to get angry.
"Chris, that's so rude of you."
Cullen frowned and scolded, but there was not much anger in his expression.
You can even hear his pretentiousness just by listening to his tone of voice.
Piero was already unpopular in his heart, and now his self-indulgent behavior could not win any favor or respect. Instead, he felt that the former had a cowardly character, which was how he should be.
Chris, who was falsely scolded by Cullen, didn't care and took a sip of champagne.
"Sorry, Piero, for this unpleasant experience."
There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!
"No, it's nothing."
"Speaking of which, the two people attending the banquet with you are..."
Cullen's gaze pointed at the young men and women conversing among themselves in the banquet hall.
"The two of them are extraordinary beings from the Vatican. They came here specifically to deal with the supernatural incidents in Enfield."
“Now that work is over, I’m ready to experience the London style.”
"I see... Why don't you invite them over and get to know each other?"
Kulun Tu had a hard time revealing his true intentions.
"Then you may have to ask Mr. Cullen to go there in person."
Piero still maintained his previous smile and had no intention of moving.
"Aren't you going to come with us?"
"My wife and I are going to see other places instead of going with you two. Don't worry, Miss Theresia and Mr. Assistant are very friendly."
As Piero said this, he pulled Chloe and turned around towards the other direction of the venue.
"Why not reject them?"
After getting enough distance, Chloe immediately asked, her tone full of uncontrollable anger.
"He insults you so much, but you want to introduce important connections to them? Are you crazy?"
"Connections? Come on, honey, we just met by chance and took advantage of each other."
Piero smiled.
"How difficult is it to establish friendship with such beings? With Cullen's little financial power, hum..."
Although he is not a high-ranking person, he has a very clear self-awareness and is good at assessing situations.
Piero had long seen what Cullen had in mind.
Chris has an arrogant behavior. During the conversation just now, he even made no secret of his coveting of Chloe.
Such subordinates will definitely cause him trouble.
Inviting himself here was nothing more than taking a fancy to the Chaofan he might know, and by the way, he broke off the relationship with Chris.
But will things really go as smoothly as he thinks?
"But what if Theresia and Su Fan are persuaded by Cullen?"
The worry between Chloe's brows did not decrease by half, but became even stronger.
"If you don't believe it, just watch."
Piero was the complete opposite.
In the corner where no one cared, this middle-aged man, who was regarded as a stepping stone and a loser, showed a confident smile.
Miss Theresia's aura doesn't lie.
Clergy who grew up in the Holy See cannot accept high-level officials.
She probably couldn't accept the evil that comes from privilege.
As for the other one, there is no need to worry.
People who are polite to everyone at all times are the most difficult to associate with.
Because from the bottom of their hearts they don’t want to have in-depth communication with other people.
——
Su Fan and Theresia did not speak to anyone in the banquet hall.
They grabbed some food from the dining table and a bottle of red wine, and went to the open-air balcony outside the hall for viewing.
The sun finally dipped below the horizon, and London's skyline ushered in what's known as its blues moment.
The sky will be dark, showing a quiet blue, and everything in sight seems to be shrouded in a veil.
Theresia’s eyes reflected the lights that came on one after another below.
"It's beautiful, but it's a pity that I can't see more."
As soon as the subconscious emotion came out of her mouth, Theresia felt a hand on the back of her head.
"Don't move, feel carefully."
Shortly after Su Fan's voice fell, Theresia felt some changes in her eyes.
The information that can be captured has increased.
Now she could see the young couple joking downstairs, looking at each other casually with a tacit understanding and intimacy.
You can see the tall buildings not far away. The girls in the dance studio are doing uniform movements in front of the mirror, and the long legs rising and falling with their toes tight are pleasing to the eye.
You can hear the melodious violin sound hidden in the wind. It is the wanderer performing on the street playing his favorite music.
There are also teenagers who are graffiti-painting on street corners and being chased by the police, making weird noises and laughing.
Even though all this information happened at the same time, the amazing thing was that Theresia could clearly accept it and process it.
[This is the world in Su Fan's eyes. 】
There was a flash of understanding in Thearesia's eyes.
But it was not envy that arose in my heart.
If you can perceive the beauty that ordinary people cannot detect, you will inevitably understand the ugliness hidden in the deepest part.
What has been his attitude towards human beings all this time?
But her thinking didn't last long.
Because someone is waiting for her thoughts.
"Very beautiful."
When her father was drunk, she would put down her farm work and enjoy the future with her friends who were looking for her to play out.
All the girls except Theresia, without exception, expressed their yearning for the big city.
It seems as if the streets over there are paved with candy.
Theresa felt confused at the time, but now she can more or less understand their thoughts.
"But it's nothing special..."
She knew that the same scenery could be seen in Los Angeles, but she didn't have the time to go there at the time.
"The scenery in cities is naturally very different. If you want to see something a little different, you have to go to a place off the beaten track. However, the fireworks in the world are also a kind of fun."
Theresia narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw Su Fan saying this, as if she was quite enjoying it.
"Speaking of which, this is obviously a high place, but why don't you feel cold at all?"
Of course Theresia couldn't feel the cold. After Su Fan came out, his thoughts flowed and he activated the wind control.
All the oncoming airflow was separated by him, thus creating an area where the cold wind could not invade.
"What? I want to experience the feeling of being cold at a high place."
Su Fan said, letting in a bit of air conditioning.
Just like that, Theresia couldn't help but shrink her neck.
"It's better to avoid it."
The two of them did not continue talking, but became quiet, enjoying the beautiful scenery silently.
Until the blue gradually becomes more intense and turns into pitch black ink.
At this time, a voice came from behind the two of them.
"Excuse me, is this Miss Theresia?"
After hearing this, Theresa turned around and saw the bearded man who had been talking to Su Fan before, walking towards her with a friendly smile on his face.
"I am Piero's commander, you can call me Cullen."
"It turns out to be Mr. Cullen... May I ask why you came here this time?"
Theresia didn't be polite and asked directly.
