The Memoirs of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 26 No.20 Seven Aftermath
Apparently there's a gag about yesterday's charity dinner organized by the City Building Foundation in the Gotham Times with the taglines "Inspiring" and "Effective" and all about Mr. Bruce Wayne's speech without a single word Mention "toilet" or "Richard Sapa"

Of course, this is not to say that the Gotham newspaper people have broken away from low-level interests, but that there were dozens of phone calls to the heads of all the news media in the city that night. For a moment, if the story of "Mr. Richard was dragged out of the toilet wearing only a Star-Spangled Banner underwear" is widely spread, then the heads of newspapers, TV stations, radio stations, and network operating companies will be punished by some The naughty punks put them into abandoned oil drums, filled them with cement, and gathered together at the bottom of Gotham Bay.

The Porsche luxury sports car was the first to be found, and it was burnt to nothing but an empty shell. The doorman packed up his belongings and ran overnight that night, and it is estimated that he has reached that rural corner by now.

And because Li Ang used bone shrinkage surgery to change the contours of his face before committing the crime, the gangsters who searched for the criminal according to the sketch of the criminal found nothing—even if they used police resources, it was useless to check the surveillance cameras.

As for the tracker buried in the middle of the suitcase, it is even more impossible for that kind of gadget to fool Li Ang. After the mafia tracked the signal of the tracker all the way from Gotham to Atlanta, and finally from the transporter of the coal mine Two empty suitcases were found in the old train carriage.

Ever since, the world was peaceful, and Gotham City, with its simple folk customs, ushered in another calm day.

In the middle of the city, Robinson Park.

The sunshine at the end of summer has a lazy taste, and the narrow stone road is covered with colorful yellow leaves. Just after the rain, the tall red maple is densely clustered, with little raindrops on it.

Isabella hopped and crushed a handful of puddles with her tiny red patent leather shoes, her ponytail drew an arc in the air, she turned her head and puffed her cheeks and said, "Please, you two, hurry up! "

"It's not you who took these things." Li Ang raised the children's roller skating backpack in his hand and said, rolling his eyes.

On weekends, Christina let Li Ang take her two younger sisters to the park without any morals, while she went to a party outside the city.

Last night, he pushed the head of a gangster into the toilet with his own hands, but today he has to take care of the child honestly. Li Ang is quite curious at this moment how those superheroes who are active on the front page of the newspaper adapt to this split life.

Isabella, who was carved out of the same mold as her sister, was more serene, stretched her waist, and said in a soft voice: "Huh, I like the smell of earth after it rains."

"Actually, it's not the smell of mud." Li Ang said with a smile, "Do you want to listen to popular science teaching?"

Elizabeth stared at him with dead fish eyes, and said indifferently: "Not at all."

"In 1964, two Australian researchers discovered that the soil smell after the rain comes from filamentous bacteria called actinomycetes. A metabolite called geosmin."

Li Ang bowed his waist, picked up a small piece of mud from the ground, put it in the palm of his hand and ground it carefully, and said softly: "Geosmin is volatile. After a light rain, the extremely small water droplets wrapped in geosmin—also known as As an aerosol, it will be inhaled by humans into the nose and react in the brain in the form of earthy breath."

He looked at the bewildered twins and said with a hearty smile: "In short, the fresh earthy smell you are smelling at this moment is equivalent to a large pile of dirty excrement from bacteria, understand?"

"Who wants to know this kind of thing." Elizabeth kicked Li Ang lightly in shame, and ran away quickly, grabbing her sister's arm, making a crisp kicking sound on the gravel road.

Li Ang carried the child's backpack behind him and shouted loudly: "Be careful not to fall!"

He was answered by a series of cheerful laughter like bells hidden among the trees.

At the end of the gravel road is a spacious square. On weekends, there are a lot of tourists. Teenagers in twos and threes are playing bicycles, roller skating or skateboards.

Elizabeth dragged her younger sister and ran over, asked Li Ang to take out the pink roller skates and protective gear from his backpack, dressed neatly, and happily joined the roller skating camp.

Li Ang wiped off the wet seat in the park with a paper towel, reclined on it and closed his eyes, but found that Isabella was lying on the back of the seat, staring at him motionlessly.

"Aren't you going to play?"

Isabella shook her head, took out a book with a thick black cover from her backpack, and said softly, "I'll just read the book."

"Well, knowledge is the ladder of human progress." Li Ang stroked her smooth hair approvingly, "What book?"

Silently, Isabella showed him the front of the book, with a few large gold letters printed on the cover.

"Fifty-Shades-Of-Grey"

fifty shades of grey.

The corners of Li Ang's eyes twitched, "Uh, do elementary school students watch this now?"

"I got it from Christina's bookshelf." Isabella put on a reasonable expression and asked Li Ang to move aside to make room for her.

The playing time passed by quickly, and when the sun set, Li Ang recovered from his long breath and clapped his hands to call Elizabeth.

The girl's face was flushed due to exercise, and she sat on the bench drinking a drink panting, while resisting Li Ang's towel to wipe her sweat in every possible way.

As for Isabella, she was completely immersed in the world in the book, and her pure eyes were always shining with detection.

"I'll take you to 'Canary Restaurant' for a good meal later, and then I'll take you home, okay?"

"Canary Restaurant? Is it that super expensive restaurant in the Diamond District?" Elizabeth widened her eyes, "Last year, Gwendale ate with her parents once, and after coming back, she talked about it for half a month. It is said that the names of the dishes there are very long.”

"Yeah, the length of the name is directly proportional to the price, the characteristic of the Frenchman moaning without illness." Li Ang helped Elizabeth wipe off the sweat on his forehead, and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"Since when did you become so rich?" Elizabeth narrowed her eyes suspiciously, "Did you get close to that Miss Jacqueline?"

"Who knows?" Li Ang shrugged indifferently, and said, "Maybe I robbed a super rich man last night, and after I send you home, I will send 300 million dollars in cash to a money laundering institution."

"Hmph, forget it if you don't want to say it." Elizabeth tossed the towel aside, and drilled into Li Ang's belly with her head hammer like a drilling machine.
