Chapter 143: The money-grubbing lawyer
The lawyer had expressed his intention implicitly. He believed that there was a village of witches in Salem. This made Wang Xuanyuan and the others confused. Since they knew this was a place of right and wrong, why not leave as soon as possible?
After asking this question, Wang Xuanyuan and the others showed interest in their eyes. They looked at the lawyer, waiting for him to give the answer.
The lawyer lowered his head and thought for a while and said, "Maybe I feel that I have a connection with this place. Maybe I feel that the villagers in this village need some external elements. If they continue to be self-contained like this, they will probably sink."
Wang Xuanyuan looked at his face and asked another doubt in his mind: "Walter, judging from these two contacts, I suddenly feel that Mrs. Melanie treats you very well and does not look like an employer. Just like employees, do you have any special relationship? Forgive me for asking so directly, I just want to know more about this village."
The lawyer smiled bitterly: "You still saw it, but don't get me wrong. We don't have any special relationship. I'm not her lover, and I'm not her bastard. We're just..." He hadn't finished speaking yet. There was already a very sad and painful expression on his face, and it seemed that tears would fall at any time.
The lawyer continued: "Do you remember that her child I told you ran away from home after a quarrel with her parents."
Wang Xuanyuan nodded and said he remembered.
The lawyer said: "Actually, I didn't tell you the truth. After their child ran away, he was killed in a car accident. Do you understand? The child was almost the same age as me. Melanie and his wife gave birth to the white-haired child. Do you understand?"
Wang Xuanyuan finally realized that Mrs. Melanie regarded Lawyer Walter as her own child. No wonder her actions towards the lawyer were so gentle and gentle.
The lawyer further said: "They were old and lost their children, and I stayed with them during that time to help them deal with things. So, I think they thought of me as their son, but every time I thought about it, it didn't take long. , Mr. Melanie encountered a huge change again and became like that."
The lawyer looked very sad, as if he had completely entered the role of the godson of Melanie and his wife. He was choked up when he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, and he tried to hold back the tears.
When Wang Xuanyuan and the others heard that Melanie and his wife had such a tragic experience, they all felt a little sympathy for them. Wang Xuanyuan thought to himself whether he always felt that there was something strange in their family. There must be part of this reason, but apart from that Besides this, there must be other reasons.
He patted lawyer Walter's shoulder and wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say. He could only pat him a few times and said: "You are such a good person."
Lawyer Walter nodded and continued: "Actually, there is another important reason why I came this time. Maybe you all want to hear it."
After hearing what he said, everyone in the room became interested and wanted to hear what Lawyer Walter would say.
After seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, he said: "Actually, there are several families in the village like Melanie and his wife. They are all interested in finding someone who can inherit their property. If you are willing, it will be completely If you can stay, everyone will get a huge fortune, and you won’t have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life.”
When the news came out, Wang Xuanyuan and the others never thought that such a thing would happen. He looked at the lawyer with some disbelief and said, "Walter, you have to think about it. Once you accept this wealth, you will Can’t leave Salem.”
The lawyer said with some indifference: "Who knows, after a hundred years, if I can't leave them, who can stop me from leaving? The wealth at my fingertips is the last word, right?"
Wang Xuanyuan shook his head in disapproval and said: "There is no such thing as a pie falling from the sky. On the contrary, if it falls too big, it will kill people. I have always felt that Salem is not as simple as it seems. If witches and wizards really existed, then it would be even more unsafe to stay here.”
He looked around and at the friends he brought here, and saw that none of them agreed with the lawyer's attitude. He felt relieved. He still persuaded the lawyer and said: "Walter, I think this place is too weird. Don't stay here either." I am nostalgic for this external thing here, please leave with us."
The lawyer seemed surprised when he heard Wang Xuanyuan say that they were leaving. He said in confusion: "There is so much wealth in front of you, and you are not tempted? Even if it is just a pretense."
Although Wang Xuanyuan needs money to make his own movies, once he has enough money, he can make whatever kind of movies he wants, but there must be a prerequisite, that is, the money must be obtained legitimately. The current approach was obviously different from what he had in mind, so he immediately gave up on it and wanted to leave this weird Salem.
The lawyer looked at the others unwillingly, wanting to know what they were thinking. Unfortunately, he did not get the result he wanted. Scarlett and the other three girls already wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, even if they were given more money. The money will not stay here. Patrick and Wang Xuanyuan have the same idea and make money through their own efforts legitimately and legally.
The lawyer was very disappointed. He said, "Since none of you want the windfall, I won't say more. I want to know when you plan to leave. If you need my help, just ask."
Wang Xuanyuan said: "There happens to be someone who needs your help. Help us get the police chief out. After we get him out, we will leave here tonight."
The lawyer said: "I'm afraid this is a bit laborious. We have tried it during the day."
Wang Xuanyuan pointed to the rope on the ground and said: "Let's try again tonight, and the girls will catch him too. I don't believe that the seven of us can't handle him."
The lawyer could only agree to help bundle the police sergeant into the car at night.
In fact, it was getting dark now, so they decided to start at ten o'clock.
At this moment, the sound of a car's horn came from outside the courtyard gate, which sounded very crisp in the dark night.
The door was pushed open, and James Wen hurriedly walked in from the outside. After entering the house, he stomped upstairs, took down his luggage bag, and said in a hurry: "I'm leaving here. , who of you wants to go with me, I will leave now, I can't stay in this place for a moment."
Wang Xuanyuan grabbed him and asked doubtfully: "Zhan, where did you borrow the car from?"
James Wen said: "I found it in a large abandoned yard on the west side of the village. There were many cars there, some with flat tires and some with no windows. They were parked in various directions. I looked for them for a long time. I just found one that can be driven, and God bless me, I didn’t even take out the keys, and there’s still enough gas.”
