After I died, I became a cat
Chapter 189 Richard's Chocolate Factory (4)
==================================
Stephens Wallen was not like what Ye Weidan had seen in the inspiration test.
At that time, he was still a middle-aged man, full of vigor and ambition, and his career was undoubtedly on the rise because he won the golden finger.
They are veteran tycoons, new entrepreneurs, mine bosses, and city councilors.
There is a saying that power is the best aphrodisiac for men.Remove the gender stereotypes from this sentence and there is nothing wrong with the rest of it.
Having power is invigorating, but losing it is depressing.
Thirty years later, Stephens Warren, no matter how expensive a suit or luxury watch he wears, looks no better than the grandparents and old ladies who come to strange cities with a group to travel.Even though the back is straightened due to good family education, it still shows a little rickety that is not easy to see.
But this does not prevent him from acting decisively and quickly.
As soon as Chen Erhuang finished speaking, the old man in the suit raised his hand to aim at the little black cat and released a magic missile.
Thirty years ago, apart from the contract with Rock Fuling, he should have been an ordinary person who knew neither the supernatural nor the occult. Thirty years later, the Patriarch of Warren appeared to be methodical when he used supernatural powers to fight.
Magic Missile is the most common and common skill among the many skills that can fly all over the world and enter the ground on the extraordinary of the legal system.
The damage is lower than that of ordinary 9mm metal tip bullets, but it comes with a self-aiming tracking function that metal tip bullets do not have.
Chen Erhuang changed his job and advanced again, so he is not considered the lowest level of Extraordinary, but his life value is still only so little after digitization.
But in the face of the attack, he did not panic.
The small figure turned into a cloud of black mist and scattered into the darkness.
The red magic missile whizzed through, and the passing light couldn't even cast his shadow.

Chen Erhuang had known for a long time that if he spoke, he might attract attacks.Before he came to find Stephens Warren, he found a corner of the storage room that was difficult to be disturbed, placed his body, and transformed from a yin and yang doctor into a big ghost.
As expected, the conflict was unavoidable. Facing a ghost cat, Stephens Warren was not even surprised. He followed the sound and fired magic missiles continuously.
This world, on the surface, seems to be a world without mystery, but in fact it is considered a world of mystery and demons.
The PU responders didn't even mention it, and said that no mysterious element was involved in the investigation, and the work was too irresponsible. Could it be that they wanted to see the investigators overturn?
Chen Erhuang was thinking while dodging. At the same time, he was almost telepathic, and the voice echoing at the soul level said:
"Mr. Warren, please calm down, I am not from the Homeland Anomaly Defense Bureau."
[Speaking skills test, 1D100=50, normal failure]
...Can't Adan share some of his unreasonable luck?Chen Erhuang thought unreasonably.
"Not all anomalies are registered and controlled by the Homeland Anomaly Defense Bureau. You who once signed a contract with Rock Fuling should understand. I am currently serving a private detective, and she and her colleagues are tempted by the bounty of this case , took me to the strange city.
"We have already found out the real murderer of this case, but firstly, the murderer has already been caught, and secondly, elves like Fu Ling are not the existence that we can name the real murderer to gain fame. We came here in vain. It was a waste of travel expenses, and in this case, we must understand the cause and effect of the whole case in order to satisfy the little cat's curiosity."
The diffuse black mist created layers of echoes around Stephens Warren.
The deep male voice that didn't match the little black cat's body said with a smile:
"Mr Warren, please tell your story, just from—"
The voice with laughter was suddenly cold.
"—Start from when your secretary beheaded someone 30 years ago, okay?"
[Intimidation check, 1D100=38, normal failure]
Chen Erhuang, who pretended to be aggressive: "..."
No, no, is it true that among the four negotiation skills, only charm can guarantee success?
Using charm in such a situation would be too immoral...
Just when these two failed negotiation rolls caused the safe passage to fall into an embarrassing silence, new footsteps came.
Both the cat and the person were vigilantly looking for their reputation, but before they could see who was coming, they were blinded by the bright flashlight that was shot straight at them.
Nothing could be seen clearly in the halo, only a few figures in combat uniforms and helmets could be vaguely seen.
"Mr. Stephens Warren?"
The one leading in the figure asked.
The old man in the suit frowned and didn't answer, but the visitor didn't care about his response. After seeing Stephens Wallen's face clearly, he said directly:
"Do it."
Behind the leader, someone raised the muzzle of the shotgun.
Without giving time to react, the man pulled the trigger, and the gun spewed out flames.
A dozen or so silver warheads engraved with magic circles filled the fan-shaped area 40 meters in front of the gun's muzzle in an instant. Neither Stephens Warren nor Chen Erhuang had time to dodge this type of range attack, which was different from magic missiles.
The old man in the suit grunted, stood unsteadily and knelt on the ground, a hole in his thigh was bleeding, and the magic missile that was forming in his palm dissipated.
Chen Erhuang didn't even dare to pick up magic missiles, how could he dare to pick up real bullets.His round cat pupils reflected the delicate and complicated magic circle on the surface of the silver bullet, and for a moment he felt that he could see clearly even a speck of dust on the lines.
The next second, a terrifying scream erupted from the safe passage.
The negative energy of the big ghost poured into the shriek, and the surging coldness aroused the purification magic circle on the silver bullet, detonating the bullet in advance.
Chen Erhuang, who was clearly a soul body but felt that his throat was sore, escaped into the wall to avoid the explosion. He poked his ears out of the wall and heard Stephens Wallen standing up against the wall.
The old man in the suit pressed his hand against the wall, and a wooden door appeared strangely on the wall, and he pushed it open.
Compared with 099856, the temporary customer service 000001, who seemed calmer, had never interrupted during the battle, but suddenly spoke at this moment.
[Discovery can contain mystery. 】
"what?!"
Chen Erhuang poked his head out of the wall with his whole cat, and saw Stephens Warren hiding behind the wooden door that suddenly appeared.
Could it be that the mystery to be contained this time is this door?
I have searched thousands of miles with the clues given at the beginning!
The door was already closed, and the wooden door floating on the wall disappeared quickly, not to mention the bullets of those who came up and shot, making the door disappear even faster.
Chen Erhuang cursed secretly, turned into a cold mist again, dodged bullets, walked through the passage, and rushed towards the wooden door with only lines left.
The moment before the door disappeared, he passed through the door panel and entered behind the door.
Behind the wall should be the chocolate hall where the Rock Fuling is closed, but what Chen Erhuang sees at the moment is a long and narrow corridor.
In other words, the effect of this door is not through the wall?
Chen Erhuang pondered. He looked at the murals on the walls, ceilings and floors of the corridor. He could see vivid animals depicted in heavy ink and heavy colors... No, those slender and curly ones are the branches and leaves of plants?Or clouds or tentacles?
[Sanity check, add a bonus dice in the state of excitement, 1D100=45, 30, difficult success]
【Merely so】
Oh, presumably a Dior graffiti by an alcoholic?
After seeing it clearly, Chen Erhuang looked away indifferently, and looked at the old man in suit who was leaning against the wall behind the door and was trembling.
The blood hole on the old man's right leg was still bubbling. Although he didn't know where he learned two techniques, he didn't seem to have learned healing.
Two small blood packs fell to the ground. Stephens Warren looked up and saw a black cat floating in mid-air with a figure like a mist surging, showing an incomprehensible expression.
He didn't understand how Chen Erhuang came in. The space behind this door should only allow the person who opened the door and the person invited by him to enter.
But the healing medicine that exudes the breath of life is what the old man urgently needs, and he has no time to discuss whether it is an enemy or a friend. He only hesitated for a moment, then picked up a small blood bag and used it.
The wound healed, and Stephens Warren remained silent.
At any rate, he had done interrogation, and Chen Erhuang gave him a step down.
"As I said, I'm not from the Homeland Anomaly Defense Agency."
"Really," the old man twitched the corners of his withered mouth and sneered, "Not from the Defense Bureau, but from Willie Cook?"
Oh, that is, Stephens Warren thinks that the pair who came up and shot just now were sent by Willie Cook.
Very logical, Stephens Warren let go of Willie Cook's God of Wealth directly, ah no, it was Rock Fling, now that Rock Fling is captured, Willie Cook will not kill Stephens Warren backhand , is called strange.
But the tone of this rhetorical question...
Chen Erhuang hesitated for a second, based on his guess after listening to Adan's inspiration and recalling the plot, he took a gamble and said:
"I thought Willie Cook was from the Defense Bureau."
After the words fell, Stephens Warren's cloudy eyes shot out hatred.
Well, he guessed right.
Chen Erhuang thought.
Why is the magic-related food that should be banned for sale, 30 years after the "recipe owner" Stephens Warren was approached by the Homeland Anomaly Defense Agency, it is still being produced openly, sold all over the world, and holding art festivals to expand its influence ?
The only thing that has changed is that the Warren Chocolate Factory is no longer the only manufacturer of delightful chocolates?
In such an obvious patent dispute, why did the court's judgment lose again and again?
The biggest possibility, of course, is——
"The Defense Bureau forced me to sign the devil's document. The cocoa beans endowed with magic power by Rock Fuling are no longer in my hands. Then they still use these cocoa beans to produce joyful chocolates. Of course, the raw materials used for the chocolates sold to ordinary people , About one-thousandth of the cocoa beans in one serving are Fuling's cocoa beans."
Stephens Warren's sneer went blank.
He spoke quickly and didn't want to mention these.
"They locked my rock furlings in the ground and forced it to give magic to the cocoa beans, but where did all the furlings go?
"The real joyful chocolates with sufficient ingredients are luxury goods sold through their private channels, special offerings designated for banquets, and hard currency smuggled at high prices on the hunter's black market."
The old man looked at the black cat.
"You actually said that you want to understand the cause and effect of the whole case?
"What are you pretending to be? Haven't you bought 'happiness pills' on the black market? Replenish your energy, fill your hunger, eliminate your fears, calm your mind, and stay cheerful to deal with the madness brought about by magic. Besides pleasure chocolate, there is no such good thing !"
