Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Sir, a person was spotted in the direction of the Lake Pontchartrain Bridge and is moving this way."

Demi picked up the binoculars.

Although it was night, Demi's telescope was military-grade and had night vision capabilities.

Demi was unhappy when she saw the people on the bridge.

"Fake, he's not dead."

The person Demi saw was no one else.

It was Chen Zhao.

At this moment, Chen Zhao's clothes were all torn.

Chen Zhao was also frightened at this moment.

If it weren't for that dangerous premonition.

It is estimated that Chen Zhao will be seriously injured now.

But even so, Chen Zhao was still injured.

The explosion just now was so sudden.

It was too intense.

The terrifying power is completely beyond imagination.

Entire artificial islands have disappeared.

To some extent, the explosion just now even exceeded the destructive power of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

You must know that the two nuclear bombs exploded at high altitude.

So actually the central explosion point is in the air.

The real damage to Hiroshima and Nagasaki was the shock wave and the subsequent decades of nuclear contamination.

But the explosion just now came from underground.

Chen Zhao was equivalent to standing at the center of the explosion.

You can imagine how sour and refreshing the taste is.

Anyway, Chen Zhao felt like he had ascended to heaven.

However, this time it also tested the upper limit of Chen Zhao's resistance to blows.

This explosion is almost close to Chen Zhao's upper limit.

At this time, several military vehicles came over from the front.

Demi jumped out of the car.

Demi looked at Chen Zhao with very complicated eyes.

On the one hand, she wanted to know something about the artificial island from Chen Zhao.

On the other hand, she regretted why Chen Zhao didn't die on the artificial island.

"Tell me clearly what happened just now."

Demi looked at Chen Zhao and asked.

"You ask me what's going on, and I'm going to ask you what's going on, and why such a violent explosion suddenly occurred. If I had been at the center of the explosion, I would be a piece of rotten meat now." Chen Zhao was even more furious.

"Where are my people?"

"Do you think your people can survive?" Chen Zhao sneered.

Those people, like him, were all at the center of the explosion.

Chen Zhao was able to survive because he had rough skin and thick flesh.

How could those people survive?

"Then how did you survive?"

"Because I had already left the artificial island."

"Why did you leave the artificial island?"

"Nonsense, now that the matter is settled, do I still want to stay on the artificial island?"

What happened this time was obviously done by the man behind the scenes.

He is the proof that he wants to destroy everything.

But for such a big move, even Chen Zhao has to say that he has lost.

Although Lake Pontchartrain is not the city center.

However, due to its geographical location, the explosion in Lake Pontchartrain was too conspicuous.

Not everyone on both sides of the Taiwan Strait can be blind.

Demi looked at the angry Chen Zhao.

She wanted to ask a few more questions.

But Chen Zhao's extremely uncooperative attitude.

It was impossible to ask anything more.

Chen Zhao was in a very unhappy mood now. He went up and ripped the driver of the military vehicle off, threw it to the ground, and then drove away in the car.

Chen Zhao felt that he had suffered a huge loss.

Twenty million dollars and almost lost his life.

Even if you don't do anything, you can earn 20 million US dollars just by lying at home for ten days.

Sure enough, military employment is a scam.

Next time I say nothing and I won't accept employment from the military again.

Chen Zhao returned to the hotel with a look of sadness on his face.

Because he was disheveled, he was stopped by the hotel lobby manager.

If it weren't for the public, Chen Zhao would have beaten him so hard that he wouldn't even recognize him.

…

The next day——

Knock knock knock——

"Come in." Portia and Demi walked into Chen Zhao's room.

Chen Zhao is still doing morning exercises.

Portia looked helpless.

"Mr. Chen, I want to know the details of last night."

"I don't know anything, don't ask me." Chen Zhao said with an unhappy look.

After the explosion on the artificial island, Demi had a big head.

The impact of this incident is really too great.

Even the White House made a statement this morning, stating that it was an act of terrorists.

However, the White House said that the specific organization is still under investigation.

The White House doesn’t know who did it, so it needs to ask someone who knows.

Demi is undoubtedly the most likely to know.

After all, she was responsible for this operation.

But Demi herself doesn’t know about the conscience of heaven and earth.

She felt that Chen Zhao might know.

Or there are some clues.

Even if she and Chen Zhao were at odds with each other, she still had to contact Chen Zhao now.

Ask about the specifics of last night.

"Mr. Chen, this is your duty. Don't forget, you are employed by the military."

"I only promised to help you solve your problems. When did I promise to answer your questions?" Chen Zhao asked casually while running on the treadmill.

"Then how do we know whether Mr. Chen has taken action?"

"Forget it, Portia, go and order me a breakfast, the same as yesterday morning."

Portia also understood that Chen Zhao deliberately pushed her away.

"This is what happened last night."

Chen Zhao began to explain the general situation.

Of course, some information is excluded.

For example, Chen Zhao has a hard drive under surveillance, or there is an unpleasant quarrel between him and the commandos.

Demi sighed. She could roughly tell the truth from what Chen Zhao said.

Chen Zhao may not be completely telling the truth, but most of it should be true.

As for what Chen Zhao said, close cooperation with the commandos.

She absolutely didn't believe it.

The only thing she was sure of was that Chen Zhao really didn't know who the culprit was behind the scenes.

"Okay, I'll take my leave now." Demi glanced at Chen Zhao one last time, her eyes full of fierceness: "I hope we have a chance to cooperate next time."

"There is absolutely no chance. I will never cooperate with you." Chen Zhao roared: "Get out of my room now."

The corners of Demi's mouth drew an arc.

It's rare to see Chen Zhao looking so out of sorts.

It's quite good.

It's a pity why he didn't die in the big explosion last night?

What a shame.

Demi can only entertain herself now.

Because she knows it very well.

What kind of censure will she face when she returns?

Not long after, Portia returned to Chen Zhao's room.

"Boss, what happened between you and Miss Demi?"

"It has nothing to do with you. Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. Knowing too much will not do you any good." Chen Zhao said in a bad mood.

When breakfast came, Chen Zhao regarded the food as his enemy.

Portia could tell that her boss was extremely angry today.

Chen Zhao thought of Sam and Vicari, picked up the phone and dialed Sam's number.

"Sam, did you and Vicari discover anything last night?"

"No, sir."

"Okay, you guys come to the hotel." Chen Zhao said in a bad mood.
