Chapter 333 Is it really that rampant?

Chapter 333 Is it really that rampant?

Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle!

As a Londoner, Kane has never read the book of war and does not know these words, but his next actions fully fulfilled these words.

"I want to know all the advantages of that evil Chinese man, and then avoid them skillfully. I mainly attack his shortcomings."

Be able to walk from the small mountain village of Weymouth to London, and in This metropolis has gained a foothold. Kane's abilities are beyond ordinary people, which is evident from his current actions.

Through his connections, he found newspapers from the Daily Express for more than a month. Although the process was a bit bumpy.

Currently, he is the "source of the plague", and all the friends he had made with him in the past avoided him. No one wants their hometown to become synonymous with ugly faces, and no one wants their family to become the next Van Zestone.

"The popularity of "Mr. Holmes" is so high that it actually surpasses the popularity of the serialized Weymouth series...Cthulhu series."

That's right, this morning's Express serialized a new series The story "Nightmare in the Witch's House".

[The first is strong creative power. ] Kane started writing.

It took more than a month to create several articles, all of which are guaranteed to be of high quality. If you look around the world, you will be able to do this, and there is no one who is not a very powerful writer.

He had never looked carefully before, and it was normal to think about it. How could he look carefully at the "weapon" that attacked him.

The more he looked, the more frightened he became... Kane discovered that the Chinese people looked like children, but were much smarter than ordinary people.

So Kane added the word "calm".

It took more than an hour to read it carefully.

Kane then realized how stupid he was. Underestimating the enemy. Gu Lu seems to be a seasoned fisherman on the Cuban sea.

"Gloom in Weymouth" Casts the net and anchors the range of the fish.

The Portsham Horror narrows the scope even further.

"Weymouth Asylum" seals off the left and right areas.

"Mountains of Crazy" blocked all possible places of escape, and he, a little fish, couldn't escape at all.

[Tighten the net step by step, have the wisdom of a hunter, and have respect for literature, otherwise you will not be able to perfect the world view and write "Dagon" that is completely irrelevant...] Kane stopped writing as he was writing, then this What is "Nightmare in the Witch's House"?

Killing fish?

Why didn’t you come to work for two or three days? Sun editor-in-chief Monroe frowned, and no one answered his phone calls.

Although our newspaper office is very humane, we all know that you may have some mental problems and we can give you a day off. But not showing up for two days is too much. Monroe came to his apartment after get off work.

As a gold medal reporter for The Sun, Kane's salary is still good, but considering the prices in London, the location of the apartment and the overall situation can only be considered below-average.

Cross two streets and stop in front of a three-story building.

Go up to the second floor and knock - the door didn't knock. Monroe's hand stopped in mid-air because he found that the door was ajar.

No light can pass through the narrow crack in the door. Instead, darkness permeates the room, as if the entire darkness of London is piled in this room.

Pushing it open with a slight force of your fingertips, the door slowly "backed away" like an octogenarian. Monroe was impatient to wait and wanted to know what was going on inside.

A few seconds seemed like two or three minutes, and the indoor windows were covered with thick curtains

"Kane?" Monroe shouted twice more, but there was no response. He tightened his windbreaker and took two steps forward. The solid wooden floor seemed to have become a little soft due to the environment.

Every step he took, Sun News editor-in-chief Monroe felt that the place he stepped on was soft. After walking through the entrance, there was only one room with lights on.

Monroe walked over and saw Kane in the bedroom, the night light shining on his somewhat crazy face.

"Yeah, Shub Nicholas. The black goat of the forest that gave birth to thousands of descendants..." You can still hear Kane muttering evil words.

Does the Van Zestone family really know black magic? In an instant, Monroe even thought about what color to choose for his coffin.

"Mr. Monroe, I know!" Kane finally came to the door and saw the editor. He stood up excitedly and wanted to tell Monroe what he had discovered.

Kane believes that he is the only person in London who remains sane, like the protagonist in the Cthulhu series, fighting against the fear of the unknown!

Oh my god! In Monroe's eyes, it was no less than a zombie attack, and he ran out of the apartment crawling on the ground...

Gu Lu saw someone being kicked out of the sales office?

He is not a person who likes to gossip. Normal people would look at him if he was pushing and shoving in broad daylight.

"If you want to make trouble elsewhere, don't affect our owners."

"Owner? I'm not the owner? I made a promise when I bought the house, why don't you abide by it?"

Open Business He and a few security guards, outnumbered, were confronting an aunt in a red coat who was in her fifties.

The red-coated lady was not afraid at all. She sat on the same spot and yelled at the top of her voice, which was more piercing than the distorted loudspeaker. Some people around her frowned and cast disgusted looks, and some people took two quick steps to take a step forward. , a small number of people act as the masses.

“Is this still the case?” Uncle Zhang frowned.

From the tone of his voice, he knew the inside story. Uninformed passers-by asked the uncle.

Uncle Zhang said, "Isn't there a small lake to the west of our third phase? Recently, the developer wants to use that place for other purposes, but the manager of the third phase does not agree."

The first phase was delivered two years ago, and Gu Lu purchased the second phase that was delivered last year. As for the third phase, the progress is slightly slower, and the finishing work of community greening is in progress.

“She keeps coming here to make trouble, as if she wants compensation from the developer.” Uncle Zhang tried his best to straighten his waist and said, “Her son and daughter-in-law both feel embarrassed. I’ve been here twice.”

“Noisy every day, don’t go to work?”

"Fortunately, he's not from our second period."

"Look at this aunt, she looks a bit unreasonable and evil."

After the uncle finished speaking, the onlookers around him were all talking. .

This seems to be a problem with the developer, right? However, considering that they are all residents of the second phase, they look at the problems of the third phase with the mentality that it has nothing to do with them.

Gu Lu squeezed out of the crowd. He happened to have something to talk to the developer about.

"Manager Zhang, please tell me what's the progress on what I said before." Gu Lu walked to the middle of the confrontation.

"What's the matter? Whose child are you?" Manager Zhang said angrily.

“As for the warning sign at the entrance of the first phase, I went to the sub-district office, and the sub-district office said that the establishment of turning mirrors will take a long time to review.” Gu Lu replied, “So let the developer of the community place the temporary warning sign first. , I told Manager Zhang about this last week..."

"You told me last week, don't talk nonsense, I have never heard of this." Manager Zhang denied it.

He also said, "You and this aunt are in the same group, and you want to blackmail us. Let me tell you, you will be punished for acting like this."

"First of all, if you use the small lake in the community as a publicity for the good environment of the community when you sell the house, then you cannot build according to the promotional content, then it is legitimate for this aunt to seek compensation from you."
< br>Gu Lu said, "Secondly -"

Before he finished his words, he was interrupted. Aunt Hongcoat nodded hurriedly, "Yes, what is written on the brochure for buying a house? The lake view in the community and the lotus flowers blooming are all what they said."

"Secondly," Gu Lu's voice slightly increased, "If you make false propaganda, then I will suspect that you sold it to us. Isn’t there something exaggerated about the house?”

These words attracted the attention of the melon-eating crowd. It is not a trivial matter when it comes to myself.

"Not even a lake is counted. Is there any problem with the quality of the house?" "When the house was handed over for inspection, I felt that the waterproofing was not done well." "This manager is very aggressive."...

"Go, go, little kid knows nothing." Manager Zhang said loudly, "Don't listen to a student kid. Our house has been inspected by the state, so there must be no problem. If you don't believe in us, you must also believe in the country. ”

Yes, the national endorsement has a good effect, and the dissatisfied discussions gradually become smaller.

After calming the crowd, Manager Zhang immediately changed his attitude and said, "Sister, and this classmate, let's go inside and sit up and talk."

Introducing Gu Lu and Aunt Hongcoat into the sales office , one-third of the houses in the third phase are still unsold, so there are many salespeople inside.

Gu Lu came to the sales hall several times, all because of what happened just now.

"Thank you, brother." Aunt Hongcoat whispered. She calmed down and realized that Gu Lu was helping her by speaking out just now.

“I just think that Auntie’s matter is also for the welfare of the entire Zijing community, and someone should support it.” Gu Lu said.

What brings benefits to the entire community? Aunt Hongcoat couldn't understand.

“When changing the design of a community, if it’s better the more we change it, forget it. If we change it worse it’s just to make money.” Gu Lu said, “Our fitness area in the second phase has been delayed and not repaired. Just in case. He got used to it in the third phase, and it is very likely that the fitness equipment in the second phase will not be repaired. So, aunt, you are fighting on behalf of our Zijing Community.”

In addition, if the community is trying to create a gimmick of the No. 1 Scholar Building, it will not be efficient at all.

"Ahem - I didn't think too much about it. The main reason is that when selling our house, it should be as it is said to be. If we can't do it, we have to compensate." Aunt Hongcoat felt a little dissatisfied. Sorry.

While talking, the two came to the manager's office inside the sales office.

"As for the landscape lake, we also considered that there are many mosquitoes in summer." Manager Zhang said, "For the safety of the owners, we made this correction. But it is true that we did not notify in advance."

"In this case, our sales department has rice, flour, grains and oil. Sister, you can bring two barrels of oil or a bag of rice back. This is also a small favor from our sales office. Do you think it will work?" Manager Zhang put forward the conditions.

One or two hundred dollars, who are you looking down on? Gu Luguang thought this way, but the next second he heard the red-coated lady next to him hesitantly agree.

"..." Okay, Gu Lu felt that he still didn't understand Auntie as well as Manager Zhang.

"As for classmates, we will try our best to find a solution to your problem." Manager Zhang said.

Gu Lu could hear the perfunctory reply, "Then what is the specific time? And our second phase of fitness equipment, please give a specific time."

You dare to ask? Manager Zhang feels that today’s students have not been part of society and have not been severely beaten by society, so they do not know how high the sky is.

If I give you a step, you won’t get down!

Manager Zhang said, "It's all adults' business. You don't understand it even as a student. If you know how to fix it, you will fix it."

"If you can't give an accurate time today, I think I need to respond to the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau," Gu Lu said.

It’s so fucking funny, you still know the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, and the little shit wants to threaten him? Manager Zhang said, "Sister, please go out and get the oil first." The red-coat lady took two steps towards the door, looked at Gu Lu again, stopped and said, "Let me go out with this child."
< br>

"Bang!" Manager Zhang suddenly slammed the table, making the red-coated lady tremble. Gu Lu was also suddenly shocked.

“A small group of children still go to the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau to file a complaint. If you go and file a complaint, I will see if it is of any use.” Manager Zhang scolded.

"Do you know where the door of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau opens? Do you really think that in ancient feudal society, you can stop the sedan chair and complain?" Manager Zhang threatened, "Believe it or not, I will prevent you from graduating with just one phone call. . ”

“Don’t be angry, Manager Zhang, this kid is still young,” the red-coated aunt said to smooth things over.

To be honest, Gu Lu really didn't believe it, but he didn't say anything. He was currently at the sales office. If there was a physical competition, he would be the only one who suffered.

"Studying is stupid." When Manager Zhang saw that the other party didn't speak anymore, he showed a victor's attitude and educated him with the remaining anger, "You adults don't know how to teach you, but I will teach you today to avoid being beaten when you go out into society. Die."

"Yes, yes." Aunt Hongyao pulled Gu Lu away.

When I was leaving the office, Manager Zhang’s voice came from behind me, “Sister, after you take the things, you can’t come to our sales department to make trouble again.”

Auntie Red Coat nodded, she Pulling Gu Lu away from the sales office, of course he still didn't forget to grab two barrels of oil.

In the event organized by the sales department, you can draw a lottery once when you buy a house. The special prize is a set of home appliances worth 30,000 yuan (refrigerator, washing machine, TV, air conditioner).

Rice and oil were consolation prizes, and it was the consolation prize that Gu Lu drew at that time.

"Brother, it's better not to fight with that Manager Zhang. I heard that Manager Zhang is very well-connected in the education department. He has won the top prize in liberal arts in this year's exam." Aunt Hongcoat said, "My boy in the house. My son is also in another province. No one in the city is not afraid of retaliation. You have just been studying. "

Diwa is a Sichuan dialect, referring to men younger than you, with a touch of intimacy.

Waer (child) is in another province? Gu Lu suddenly asked, "What do you call auntie?"

"The surname is Zheng, Guan'er Zheng." Aunt Hongcoat said, "If you take this barrel of oil back, it can be considered as compensation for today."
< br>

If your surname is not Jia... why is that uncle talking nonsense for no reason? Gu Lu couldn't understand, so he responded, "No, Aunt Zheng, I understand, I won't be that stupid."

"One bucket per person, we..."

" I have to go to the cram school, so I'll leave first." Gu Lu waved and left.

Of course Gu Lu didn't sign up for tutoring or anything, he just found an excuse to leave. He dialed 965559, the complaint hotline of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, and made a complaint.

The phone complaint goes smoothly, but whether it will be handled is another matter.

In addition, Gu Lu went to the street office again that day.

Zijing Community is under the management of Fengxia Street and is next to Fuxing Street.

Compared with Director Fuxing’s vigorous and resolute way of doing things, Fengxia Street Office is non-stick and can push everything out.

“Oh, we already understand this problem. It is indeed a serious problem. But we also have procedures.”

“There is no way, you can only communicate this yourself.”

"It is not convenient for us to reveal the specific time, because we have confidentiality business regarding the planning of the jurisdiction."

...

Gu Lu really knows now that ordinary people, if they want to get something done It's really too difficult.

Fortunately, he is not an ordinary person, but a well-known literary copywriter.

He already had an idea in mind, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. That night, Gu Lu finished washing and was preparing to write a novel.

"Bang bang——"

At 8:30 in the middle of the night, there was a knock on the door. The sound was very rough, more like banging on the door.

"?" Gu Lu put his phone on the page of dialing 110, and then approached the peephole of the security door.

While still getting closer, there were two more "bang bang" sounds, and then a familiar male voice said, "Little batch of babies, I know you are at home. If you are brave enough, you really dare to report it to the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau. Wow, you are really amazing.”

“I’ll give you a final warning today, don’t go crazy. Otherwise, I’ll let you know why the flowers are so red.” As if he was venting his anger outside the door, Kuang Kuang kicked the door a few times.

Manager Zhang has gotten off work and has taken off his human-like suit, making his ruffian look even more prominent.

Leading the two younger brothers, security guard Xiao Shang and security guard Xiaomin, they turned and walked into the elevator.

In the elevator, the security guard was uneasy, "Brother Zhang, is there any problem with what we do?"

"What's the problem? Brother Zhang is doing well in this circle. Are you okay? Besides, Brother Zhang’s uncle is... ahem." Security guard Xiao Shang stopped at the critical moment.

“There’s no need for my uncle to do this. I’ve seen many teenage students like this. His family is rich and he has been protected very well by his parents since he was a child. If you scare him, he will tremble with fear. Shaking." Manager Zhang bet, believe it or not, that Gu Lu must be afraid of hiding in a corner now.

So does Gu Lu have a body like sifting chaff? Definitely not. He was thinking, why would this happen in reality?

I have to say that Manager Zhang taught Gu Lu a lesson.

"Go, go, go, if you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good." Gu Lu made a phone call.

The phone call is to a reporter from "Wudu Daily" to make an appointment for an interview. If Gu Lu is involved in the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, will he be afraid to report it? It doesn't matter, if he really doesn't report it, he will go directly to Youth Daily, and it will be national news by then.

At the same time, he also started to formulate articles, and instead of talking nonsense, he wrote about his living experience in two sub-district offices... His writing skills are not bad, but he also wants to write better, so he is slower.

It took Gu Lu an hour and a half to submit his article to Youth Digest.

Hey, why does Gu Lu feel that he is like "when there is something to do, there is no beauty, and when there is nothing to do, it is summer and spring", and only when there is something to do, he can think of Youth Digest.

No, Gu Lu, who is very understanding of the world, also attached an article about the representative work of "Pattern Man" that he just drew - Rocket Man.

OK, that’s no problem! Gu Lu was satisfied.

In addition, "The Battle for Antarctica" has not yet been written.

Why? I haven’t finished reading the information sent by Professor Xiahou. Gu Lu currently has a successful career in literary copywriting, and he is also a genius recognized throughout the country, but he still remains cautious. For example, Liu Yong, the editor of "People's Literature", urges manuscripts every once in a while, and asks for help every now and then.

The "Collection of Aimee's Short Stories" at the bottom of the box is very literary. As long as you submit it, you will definitely pass. But the timing was not right. Take a look at "When the Stars of Humanity Shine". If it hadn't been invited by the National Cultural Corps, I would have been waiting for university.

The real estate is worth over one million yuan, the deposit is over one million yuan, and the sales of external works will continue to bring in millions more.

Gu Lu is not short of money, so there is no need to maintain magazines such as "Science Fiction World", "New Reading", and "Youth Literature". You have to wait for the right ones.

The short stories of "Pattern Man" are not published in China. The main reason is that they can be used in emergencies, like just now.

The next day, it was a calm morning.

Lu Ping was very distressed this morning. Why?

The comic he was holding in his hand was also published by Zhejiang Children's Publishing House. It was also the same comic he published last time, "Kurizi's Basketball".

Even after Neon was serialized for two months and published its first single volume, Zhejiang Shaoxing published a Chinese version.

This is not a big miracle, because most Japanese comic books have been popular for four or five years before being introduced into the country. I don’t know why Zhejiang Shaoxing Publishing House is so active this time.

Anyway, ever since Lu Ping saw his name in the publishing house, he would often buy Chinese versions of comic books.

The comic is called Shokoku no Soi, and the opened information page reads——

[Character information currently available:

Name: Ma Xuanyou

Nickname: Prince of Food and Sports

Good at cooking: Sichuan cuisine in Chinese cuisine, innovative Sichuan cuisine

Second year of the Advanced Department of Totsuki no Hachi Academy (student of the 91st batch), eighth seat among Totsuki Ten Elites, research on Chinese cuisine The leader of the meeting.

Possessing very powerful strength, it is said that it comes from the inheritance of a shot put throwing family.

Based on strong strength, he invented unique techniques and innovated Sichuan cuisine. He is the second highest-achieving Chinese from Toyama No. 8 Academy.

The signature dishes "Secret Honeydew Melon Stew" and "Special Sweet and Sour Duck Neck" are never failed. ]

[Name: Gu Lu

Nickname: Not to be disclosed yet

Good at cooking: Not to be disclosed yet

Experience: One of the most special and mysterious students of Toyama No. 8 Academy. ]

The last two pages of the book are "Manga Artist Questions and Answers". When serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump", some questions from readers will be answered every week.

[Reader question: Gu Lu appears in the published information book. Is he the author of "Flowers for Algernon" and "The Prince of That Time"?

Fujimaki Yuto replied: Fujimaki-san and I are good friends, and I am a loyal reader of "The Prince of That Time". I was able to visit Mr. Gu Lu through Fujimaki-san's introduction. A few days ago, Fujimaki-san and I were fortunate enough to accept Teacher Gu Lu's invitation to attend the campus festival at Fog City No. 8 Middle School.

I deeply feel the openness of Fog City No. 8 Middle School.

The date of their campus festival is actually discussed by the students themselves, and they can set it at whatever time they want. Student autonomy is very high. Moreover, the club culture of Wudu No. 8 Middle School is prosperous. I won’t talk about the basketball club. Their food club also impressed me deeply. Ma Xuanyou is the leader of the food club. He and Teacher Gu Lu appear in the comics, and they also have real-life prototypes. Maybe many people don’t know that Teacher Gu Lu is not only a Model United Nations consultant, basketball club poster, magazine president, but also a special member of the food club...]

I feel that Ma Xuanyou is much better than him, Because the former is a recurring supporting character, he only appears in comic extras.

The only thing that's better is that Kuroko is more popular, and the Spirit of the Halberd Eater has just started.

"Everyone in the school knows that Brother Zhulu is the face of our basketball club. The special members of the food club are simply bragging!" Lu Ping felt that Ma Xuanyou was fooling his little life.

This is an unjust accusation against "Xuanrou". He didn't say anything. It was clearly Futian who said this deliberately to gain popularity.

No! Lu Ping felt that Ma Xuanyou would definitely be as arrogant as him.
