Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Not long after, Chen Zhao's phone rang.

It's Leon's call.

"Chen, please help me. The situation this time is very serious. If the fog spreads, it will cause huge casualties to the urban areas on both sides of the artificial island."

"This is not California." Chen Zhao said: "So I have no reason to work voluntarily. What's more, this matter also carries a great risk for me. Shouldn't the military show enough sincerity when hiring people to do things? "

"But the $20 million you offered is too high."

"No, no, no, it's not high at all. I think it's in line with my current worth." Chen Zhao said.

"Chen, just do me a favor."

"We are friends, of course I am willing to help you."

Haha...are we friends?

Chen Zhao himself didn't believe it, let alone Leon.

They were never friends.

But now they are not enemies.

That's all.

Leon is the kind of person who puts interests first.

The biggest reason why he and Chen Zhao were enemies in the first place was that the Supernatural Association was out of control.

And now Leon is no longer the Minister of Anti-Terrorism and Security.

Therefore, whether the Supernatural Association is controlled by the Anti-Terrorism and Security Department has nothing to do with him.

Therefore, being Chen Zhao's enemy at this time would not be impulsive, but stupid.

This time the Lake Pontchartrain Bridge incident has no direct relationship with Leon.

Leon is just a help between colleagues, it can also be said to be an exchange of interests.

Chen Zhao took action to help him.

Even if he didn't take action, he wouldn't be hurt.

In short, what Leon is doing now is a business without buying and selling.

"Then you agreed?"

"Leon, I have been having some health problems recently. I accidentally injured my body while practicing magic, and I may die at any time, so I need to save money now to leave it to my family."

"Okay, I understand, I'll send your status to the military."

After a while, Demi came to Chen Zhao with an evil look on her face.

"My superior has agreed to your request and the money can be given to you, but the money will not be transferred until you resolve the matter."

"Ahem... I haven't been feeling well lately. I'd better go back to sleep."

"Wait...I can transfer 20% to you first." Demi said again.

"goodbye."

"50%, I'll transfer you $10 million first."

"I want it all, not even a penny less."

Demi gritted her teeth at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao doesn't trust Demi or the military.

If the military wants to break up with him, he really has no choice.

Of course, it's not completely impossible.

It's nothing more than hurting each other.

But in the end, it was Chen Zhao who suffered.

"Okay, $20 million! I'll transfer it now." Demi finally compromised.

There is no other way to compromise, Chen Zhao's attitude is too tough.

And every extra minute the Lake Pontchartrain Bridge is blocked costs a penny.

Demi is under more pressure.

If this incident cannot be resolved satisfactorily.

Then her development in the military has come to an end.

"The money has been transferred."

Chen Zhao nodded and walked out of the room. Portia said: "Help me check my bank account to see if there is any cash transferred in."

"Okay, boss." Portia replied cautiously.

A minute later, Portia looked at Chen Zhao with shock.

"Boss, you just received 20 million US dollars."

"Very good." Chen Zhao finally showed a satisfied look on his face.

No matter what, it's not bad to make $20 million in one night.

"You can leave now."

"Of course, take me there quickly. I am very eager to save those people who are in danger."

Demi felt like her fist was already horny.

If it weren't for Chen Zhao, he wouldn't be able to defeat him.

She really wants to kill Chen Zhao now.

"Boss, where are you going?"

"Shopping." Chen Zhao said, "Do you want to go?"

"Really? Shopping?"

"Well, you can check where the nearest cemetery is."

Portia was about to collapse.

"Boss, I'm very tired."

"Forget it, you can rest." Chen Zhao said very understandingly.

When Chen Zhao and Demi came to the elevator.

Demi saw that all of her men had injuries on their faces.

Demi's face suddenly darkened: "Who did it?"

Everyone looked at Chen Zhao.

Demi looked at Chen Zhao fiercely: "You dare to attack my people?"

Demi has always been a very protective person.

Seeing her men being beaten, her anger exploded.

"Are they your people? I thought they were bad people with evil intentions towards me." Chen Zhao looked at Demi with an innocent look.

It's like saying, trust me.

"You'd better not die in there." Demi cursed Chen Zhao viciously.

"Hey, there are so many people who wish I would die, but I am still alive and well." Chen Zhao glanced at Demi: "But the person who cursed me will most likely die violently, so you should be more careful. "

Arrive at the Lake Pontchartrain Bridge blockade.

Demi called the adjutant and asked: "How is the situation now?"

"The area of ​​the fog expanded by 10%, and another body was found in Lake Pontchartrain, but the rest remained unchanged."

"How prepared are our commandos?"

"A team of twenty people has been organized." The adjutant said: "Now we are just waiting for the commander to give the order, and our commando team will enter the artificial island."

Demi looked at Chen Zhao: "Are you sure you want to act alone?"

"Anyway, I won't act together with your people. With our grudges, I doubt you will instruct your men to shoot me."

The adjutant looked at Chen Zhao in surprise. He didn't recognize Chen Zhao.

Not to mention the personal grudge between Chen Zhao and Demi.

But he was surprised that Chen Zhao actually said this in front of Demi.

Demi said with a dark face: "We are soldiers and we have a moral bottom line."

"Moral bottom line? Are you talking to me about moral bottom line?" Chen Zhao coldly snorted: "Is your moral bottom line just to default on your debt? By the way, don't blame me entirely for your commander's death. If you hadn't instigated him at that time, Paul wouldn't have done it either. die."

"Have you finally admitted that you did it?"

"So what if I admit it? Do you have any evidence? Don't forget, you were monitoring me the whole time. You are my most powerful witness."

"Many times the military doesn't need evidence." Demi looked at Chen Zhao with sadness.

"That's true, but you'd better ask your superiors if you have enough courage to attack me." Chen Zhao sneered.

"You two, now is not the time to argue." The adjutant said to smooth things over.

Only then did Chen Zhao and Demi stop arguing.

"Bring me an isolation gown." Chen Zhao said, "Don't mess with the isolation gown. If I find out, I will fall out."

Demi ignored Chen Zhao and turned to the adjutant: "The commando team is preparing to enter the artificial island."
