Chapter 323 Change of Mood; Call from London
Just when Su Fan lamented that he couldn't use the paper avatar at will like 98% of them did, Alice on the side spoke.
“You just said you only killed one, right?”
“That’s right...what’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
Alice looked at Su Fan with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
But Su Fan turned his head and expressed what he was thinking.
"Are you surprised that I didn't kill indiscriminately?"
Alice hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly and cautiously.
The other party did not go on a killing spree, which in her opinion was not "common sense".
Although Su Fan's body structure is no different from that of humans, after long-term observation, Alice has realized that the young man in front of her is not at the same level as ordinary people.
He has a stronger body and spirit, and can use his wonderful magic to know what is about to happen in the future in advance.
Able to fight evil spirits and even demons that ordinary people cannot contend with, and easily kill their opponents.
According to common sense, his heart should have changed long ago.
Alice has seen countless vampire newborns.
Those men and women, no matter how docile and innocent they were when they were humans, will always change their temperaments drastically when they begin to become vampires.
The main reason is of course the physical desire for blood, but in Alice's view, the weakening of the original respect for life due to the increase in strength is also a factor that cannot be ignored.
The last diplomat of the great Eastern country once said that armed with sharp weapons, one has the intention to kill.
With the expansion of power, it is difficult for anyone to stay awake.
Su Fan himself can even completely ignore the laws of the world, but still be so restrained.
It's really incredible.
The young man in front of him did not answer immediately.
His expression seemed a little tired and a little confused.
Alice felt that Su Fan's temperament changed at this moment.
He is no longer the comfortable and mysterious universal store owner, but an ordinary young man whose body is supported by a recliner.
However, it was only for a moment.
"It's not as bad as you think, and it's not as good either..."
Su Fan finally spoke, his tone was as usual, but he quickly changed the subject and smiled.
“You, a vampire, still care about my humanity?”
“Can’t you?”
Alice tilted her head and asked.
Su Fan did not answer.
Because the other party does have this qualification.
Although she is a vampire, her emotions are no different from those of humans.
As for his moral standard, it is much better than the Michaelsons and others he killed before.
"...You will be fully responsible for the matters in the store today. I'm going to take a rest."
"Okay."
Hearing Alice's crisp reply, Su Fan Then he returned to his room.
He sat at the desk, watching the orange streetlight fall in front of him through the window, and fell into deep thought.
In a sense, Alice's impression of him was correct.
He does have a tendency in this regard, and it becomes more and more serious as his cultivation level rises.
He only realized this after he started to cultivate his character after the mysterious book incident.
[Being pulled into the illusion by the classics, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, and I realized the importance of cultivating one’s character in advance...]
If you continue to blindly enhance your strength and ignore the growth of your character, you may soon be Can no longer adapt to the rules of human society.
But even if the intention is to change, the perspective and thinking that is alienated from the world and overlooks the whole life will still be revealed from time to time.
Therefore, Su Fan's current situation is just like his answer to Alice.
[What about the high-level guides in the novels about cultivating immortals? If that doesn't work, just take me to the Immortal Sect. 】
Su Fan joked to himself, raised the corner of his mouth and let out a breath.
Real life is not a novel, and it cannot be brushed off with a simple sentence about the difference between the immortal and the ordinary.
He stood up and walked towards the bed.
The trauma in his soul has not fully recovered yet. In the future, he will have to maintain adequate sleep time like normal people.
Su Fan, who was lying on the bed, no longer felt as groggy as before.
【This time, I will never enter another time and space. 】
With such thoughts, Su Fan finally fell into sleep.
While Su Fan was resting in bed, there was a group of people who couldn't sleep in America at night.
Most of them were powerful people who had had interests with Michaelson, and they should have attended the dinner honorably to discuss many country-related matters.
But now he returned to his manor in unison, looking stunned.
The information that Michaelson was dead did not just shock them.
The so-called media tycoons are just members of the shadow government, that is, mouthpiece managers trained by big conglomerates.
Cultivating a new one is time-consuming and laborious, but it is not impossible.
The question is who did it.
But before the leaders of the consortium behind the scenes could give orders, there was even worse news.
Many top-secret information in Michaelson's private mailbox and database were partially spread to the Internet!
As the dog of political figures and many behind-the-scenes bosses, the former has been exposed to too many secrets.
He secretly withheld many letters and information to protect himself at critical moments.
But these things failed to save his life from the mysterious killer. Instead, they became the former's tool to stir up public opinion.
These textual and image materials about state secrets, political secrets, and big boss scandals were all destroyed in less than half an hour, and not even a trace or screenshot remained.
Many forces usually seem to be fighting to the death, but at this moment they are tacitly using their own resources and power to completely put out the fire that has not yet started to burn.
A small amount of scandal is a convenient tool for criticizing each other, but this situation can be said to be a crisis for the entire high-level.
Once the news breaks out, it will completely lose the government’s already scant credibility.
All the forces in a chaotic country did not want to see it, so they took such swift action.
The enemy who was against Michaelson's backers was very interested in dealing with the aftermath.
Isn’t this handle that comes to your door the best consecutive dealer hand?
In contrast, political and business celebrities related to emails and information are all holding back their anger.
The image that he has worked so hard for over the years may be ruined. Not only that, he may also be caught by his opponent, losing the initiative in the confrontation.
The losses involved cannot be measured by money!
For a time, everyone involved in the incident hated Michaelson.
At the same time, murderous intent is boiling over the person who caused the current situation.
However, they now have no time to find each other for revenge.
Because what is about to greet them is a turbulent wave of public opinion.
The next morning.
"Good morning, boss."
Alice, who came to work on time, said hello as soon as she came up.
It was another holiday soon, and this time she came to work. She brought her own fishing tackle box, obviously planning to go fishing after get off work.
But as soon as she entered the door, Alice noticed Su Fan's strange expression.
"What's wrong? You look like you haven't slept well."
"It's okay."
Su Fan answered casually. Alice didn't take it to heart, but took out the notebook she carried with her.
“Su, you really missed too many events while sleeping.”
"Last night, a large amount of secret information suddenly appeared on the Internet, including but not limited to the whereabouts of military expenditures during the war... secret operations during the election..."
"Power-money transactions... political scandals... …It’s so exciting.”
Alice was amazed, while rummaging through the computer for the information that she had saved offline yesterday.
But Su Fan had no interest in these.
Because he asked the astrologer female ghost to do this.
Facts have proved that this trick is extremely effective.
Everyone’s attention was attracted by Commissioner Smith’s $500,000 cart. Few people paid attention to the so-called supernatural events and the exorcism master.
After all, evil ghosts cannot be encountered at any time, but taxes must be paid every month.
What I spend money to support is a group of insects who party all day long and are greedy for ink, and they shamelessly say it's for them every day.
Bah!
Angry taxpayers have begun spreading the news among themselves and preparing to organize demonstrations in protest.
It’s just that the websites and discussion groups they gather always malfunction for unknown reasons, or disband themselves...
As for who did it, it should be a network problem~~< br>
However, even under deliberate suppression, it has never been able to reach a large scale, but it is still enough for the group behind to drink a pot.
Not only can it cause trouble for the other party, but it can also screen out those who really need an exorcism commission and be driven by curiosity.
Kill two birds with one stone.
But Su Fan didn't pay much attention to the situation at this time, but whether he yawned.
Because he really didn't sleep well last night.
After the incident involving Katie and his brother ended, Su Fan did not encounter the special situation last time, but he still had a nagging dream.
In the dream, he became an outer disciple of the Immortal Sect. After achieving success in practice, he was able to participate in a conference where disciples of the sect select their own weapons.
The place where the weapons are placed is called Zanggun Peak.
Since he was indeed in a dream state, Su Fan subconsciously ignored the inappropriateness of this name.
Following the junior brothers and sisters, he entered it and got his own crowbar.
Since then, he has been rising steadily, becoming the soul figure of the younger generation of Xianzong and leading the way.
Even the elders of the sect are inferior to him in controlling his stick.
In the process of walking around the world with the stick and sword... no, the stick and the stick, Su Fan also met many confidantes.
I just don’t know why these confidantes all look like people from a foreign land, yet they are indescribably familiar.
These beauties with different temperaments and beauty surrounded Su Fan, and there was a happy party struggle.
In the end, when Su Fan said "You are all my wings", everyone happily obeyed him.
But what troubled Su Fan the most was the crowbar that appeared many times in the middle.
This thing completely replaced the status of the sword, and was regarded as the main weapon by myself in the dream.
Su Fan had the urge to hide his face when he thought of him holding that thing freely and holding the sword flower.
But this also reflects another pressing problem.
【It’s almost time to get a real spiritual sword. 】
Although the sword used before was made of modern forged steel and was sharp and solid, it was nothing more than a mortal thing.
Following Su Fan through various battles, the damage was almost done.
Besides, it also has disadvantages such as inconvenience to carry and inability to be used on special occasions.
While Su Fan was thinking this, the phone on the side suddenly rang.
Alice picked up the receiver deftly.
……
In a house in London.
A strong young man walked to the window and took a wary look at the situation outside, as if he was really on guard against something.
After confirming safety, the curtains were closed.
He turned towards the interior of the house.
The furnishings are simple and have only basic living functions. Obviously, he has just moved in.
When passing by the tabletop, the young man stopped and picked up a photo frame from it.
In the photo frame, a red-haired woman and a young man stand side by side, with smiles on their faces.
The young man wiped a little dust off it with his hand and put it back in its place with great care.
He looked up at the opposite wall.
There is no decoration on the wall, only a huge mirror covered by white cloth.
[That was not a dream...]
With this thought in his heart, he reached out to pick up the receiver of the landline phone, and started dialing with the other hand...
...
"Hello..."
"Is this Mr. Su Fan's antique shop?"
"Yes, please tell me if you have anything to say..."
"Can you ask him to talk to me in person?"
The voice on the other end of the phone seemed a little nervous, and Alice covered the phone. Look at Su Fan.
Seeing the latter extending his hand, he replied.
“No problem, just wait a moment.”
After passing the receiver to Su Fan opposite, Alice returned to her seat.
He is so hesitant, he must not be doing business.
As for exorcism, let’s leave it to him personally.
But the strange thing is that after taking the phone, Su Fan didn't speak.
Under Alice's keen hearing, the movement on the other end of the phone was clearly audible.
"Is that you?"
The speaker was cautious and his breathing seemed to be trembling.
"Well, should I say long time no see?"
After Su Fan's calm voice came out, there was a low cry of suppressed ecstasy on the other side of the receiver!
The caller seemed to be too excited and his movements touched the surrounding furnishings, but even so, he didn't care at all!
Listening to the familiar voice, Su Fan showed a smile.
He has met the other party, or in other words, met him in a dream.
Tom, Katie's brother, the frail young man who likes the gym.
Now that the other party can talk to me, it proves one thing.
His actions in the dream did change history and affect the present!
Katie's life was saved, and he would naturally not be detained again as the mental patient who killed his sister, as in the original historical trajectory.
However, Su Fan was a little surprised that the other party found the antique store's phone number so quickly.
He is indeed quite famous now, but he is just a little famous in the United States.
It is still difficult to find relevant information in the UK.
But soon, the other party's next words made Su Fan's smile freeze.
"It's really you, the great god of crowbars!"
