Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

After Fankra came out of the police custody, he took out his phone.

"Boss, he has already signed it."

"Well, let me investigate again to see how many assets he still has."

"Boss, according to my investigation, the combined assets in his and his son's names are less than one million US dollars."

"There are so many more?" Lisfar was a little surprised.

Talisti's net worth was close to three billion US dollars. In just a few days, he only had one million US dollars left. Is this too much?

If only Talisti's brain could be normal and rational.

It won't go bankrupt.

For example, his PLM stock directly reduced the market price by half.

Another example is the $900 million that was defrauded by an assistant.

According to the current intensity of bank supervision, under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to remove the money even if the owner of the money is in prison.

But that's what happened.

Talisti seemed to be bent over by bad luck.

"If you think of a way, I promised my brother that I will make Talisti bankrupt. Do you know what bankrupt means? There is not a penny left."

"Okay, I will find a way." Fan Kela was helpless.

…

After a few days of eruption, the intensity of the incident gradually decreased.

But at this moment, another explosive news appeared.

Talisti is suspected of producing and selling drugs.

This news is not just a matter of excitement, it also lists a lot of evidence.

Talisti started his career by selling drugs, and he has not stopped doing so over the years.

And even the witnesses have come out.

The fire that had not been completely extinguished was ignited again.

Steven looked at the news, took out his phone and called Khalifa Oliver.

"Oliver, thank you."

"Remember your promise."

"I will remember it." Steven replied calmly.

Sure enough, Talisti once again became the target of criticism from people across the United States.

Especially in Los Angeles, there are marches of hundreds of people every day.

Demand that the government impose the death penalty on Talisti.

…

Chen Zhao received a call.

"Mr. Chen, I am Mr. Talisti's lawyer."

Chen Zhao was quite surprised, since he dismissed a lawyer.

There are actually people willing to become Talisti's lawyer.

"Oh, what then?"

"Mr. Talisti is willing to pay you $1 million in the hope that you will drop the charges against him."

"Haha...do you think it's possible?"

In fact, this lawyer also had a headache. He did not volunteer to be Talisti's lawyer at all.

Instead, it was assigned to Talisti by the court.

Even if he is God, there is no way he can turn this ironclad case over.

Forget it if you lose a lawsuit.

The most critical point is that the risk of doing Talisti is too great.

It seems that as long as you become Talisti's lawyer, you will be a public enemy.

Even his wife, upon learning that he had become Talisti's lawyer, began to give him the cold shoulder.

This lawyer has never been so upset.

He just wants to end the lawsuit quickly.

No matter what happens, just end it quickly.

Fortunately, Talisti has basically given up struggling now.

Talisti didn't want to die, though.

His current crime may well bring him to the gallows.

Although California has very, very few death row inmates each year.

But this time the incident in Talisti was really too big.

It seems that all the people are waiting for the judiciary to give them an explanation.

He is likely to have a share of this year's death penalty.

In the judicial process of the United States, the death penalty trial process is extremely complicated.

The entire litigation process may last several years.

It's just that Talisti really didn't have the courage to gamble.

He knew he couldn't get out, but he still didn't want to die and didn't want to hear the news that he was about to be executed.

So now he just wants Chen Zhao to drop the accusation.

In this way, his crime can be lighter.

Maybe it would allow him to avoid the death penalty.

After hanging up the phone with Talisti's lawyer.

Chen Zhao stood up and stretched.

"It seems like we should go see him."

Chen Zhao came to the detention center, and Talisti really came to see him.

In just ten days, Talisti seemed to have aged twenty years.

Of course, Chen Zhao would not care about Talisti.

He came here not to comfort Talisti.

Talisti looked at Chen Zhao with very complicated eyes.

Hatred, that's certainly inevitable.

But he still had the consciousness to beg.

He seemed to be imagining that Chen Zhao would see him as pitiful and let him go.

"Mr. Talisti, look, do you still remember what I said to you last time?" Chen Zhao looked at Talisti with a bright smile: "As long as it is a war, it is possible to lose."

"Mr. Chen... you win. You see, I'm not young anymore. I don't want to fight with you anymore. You... let me go once. I promise that I will never appear in front of you again in the future." ."

"I'm sorry, I can't agree. Why do you think I have put in so many efforts?" Chen Zhao looked at Talisti with a smile: "I have spent a lot of effort to make you bankrupt. "

"You?" Talisti was stunned for a moment.

He never associated Chen Zhao with the shrinking of his assets.

He knew the whole thing, and he didn't believe it had anything to do with Chen Zhao.

"Remember that black wolf staring at you that day?" Chen Zhao grinned: "It swallowed up your wealth."

"you you……"

Talisti stood up suddenly, and his body began to tremble.

Every night, he had the same dream.

A black wolf kept eating his flesh and blood.

And every dream is connected.

Every time he dreams, he can see that the flesh and blood on his body is constantly decreasing.

"Hell is actually not far away from you."

The surrounding guards saw Talisti lying on the ground and quickly came forward to check and rescue him.

Chen Zhao stood up, turned and left with a smile.

At this moment, Chen Zhao's phone rang.

"Hey, Chen, let's go watch a movie tonight."

"What movie to watch?"

"Of course it's Mr. Steven's "The Wild One." You've forgotten, right? Today is July 1st, Friday."

"Huh? Is Steven's movie released today?"

"yes."

"I'm going to buy movie tickets now."

After Fali got off work, she went straight to the cinema, and the two of them watched the movie together.

Chen Zhao is not a film critic, but he watched it with gusto.

"Chen, do you think it looks good?"

But Chen Zhao was still a little unhappy when the supporting character who played him died in the arms of Fali's actor.

The plot was far from what he thought, but as Steven's friend, he had to be unconscionable even if it was a bad movie, not to mention that he felt it was actually not bad.

"Of course it's beautiful. The last scene was so touching that I shed tears."

"What a lousy movie. Steven would actually make such a lousy movie. I'm so disappointed." An audience member who had watched the movie cursed and shouted behind Chen Zhao.

"What are you farting there? What's wrong?" Chen Zhao replied directly.
