Chapter 137: Great Success
Thirty-sixth floor, Sherman Building, William's Office.
Zhang Jiao sat lazily on the sofa in the office, holding his head in one hand and the coffee that Fauci had just handed over in the other.
Next to him, An glanced at the TV screen directly south of the office, and after seeing that his boss was still intently watching the local news playing on the screen, he immediately moved forward, curiously looking at the five small chic lying on the desk not far in front of him, with a look of eagerness.
It's just that after seeing the figure half-lying on the sofa, she immediately pressed this curiosity to the bottom of her heart, and didn't dare to act too recklessly, but her eyes still swept over the five strange looks from time to time, pouting her ass and lying on the table and looking at the little thing full of strange words and books in front of her.
"Goblins, elves, or goblins?"
Ann thought curiously, and then heard her boss suddenly say, "If you want to see it, go see it! They won't bite you." ”
"Really, thank you, boss. You're so nice!!"
An immediately let out a cheer, immediately ran to the desk, looked at the five baby-sized imps in front of him, and immediately couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, stretched out his finger to touch their crumpled heads, and said, "Boss, are they the same thing? Why are they all different colors? And they can also read, are they wise? Are the words on this book their words?"
Ann's curiosity suddenly exploded, and in a series of inquiries, her fingers had already touched the red ghost's head and began to knead it tentatively.
The red ghost suddenly raised her slightly hideous crimson head, shook her head, shook her fingers off, and then grimaced at Ann, and strings of green flames splattered from her collapsed nostrils.
"Hey!! boss!! it can even breathe fire!! so what else will they do? The red is fire, and the white is ice?"
Zhang Jiao glanced back at An, who seemed to have discovered a new continent, and said very blandly, "You can ask them yourself." ”
With that, he continued to watch the news on the TV screen.
On the TV screen that was opened, a split screen immediately inserted next to the blonde and blue-eyed beauty host, and a figure suddenly appeared in the split screen.
It was Curtis, the police chief who had negotiated with Zhang Jiao and them in the police department.
"Welcome to the details of the major vicious fire incident in Harlem brought to you by NA+1 TV, and we will connect with Director Curtis, who is in charge of this major incident, and he will tell you about the entire process of the case. ”
"Hello. Mr. Curtis, can you hear me?"
"Yes, host. ”
Curtis, who was dressed in a formal suit and combed his hair to the fullest, immediately replied solemnly.
"Okay? Can you tell us the audience in front of the TV in detail about this case?" asked the blonde and blue-eyed host.
Director Curtis immediately nodded? Then he showed eight white and shiny teeth and said to the audience in front of the TV? "First of all? On behalf of all the officers at the Harlem District Bureau, I would like to express my condolences to those who died in this series of vicious firefights. ”
As he spoke, he folded his hands and bowed his head. No more speech.
The beautiful anchor next to Mr. Director also followed suit at the same time and mourned together.
More than ten seconds later? Director Curtis just raised his head from silence? With a serious expression, he introduced the details of his Harlem rush case.
"With the joint efforts of our Harlem Divisional Police Department and Detective Zhang of William's Office, the history of this vicious rush has been fully investigated, and all relevant evidence and intelligence have been handed over to the prosecutor. Go to the Silinka courthouse for an on-site attention ......"
In the midst of the repeated chatter and questions between the host and Director Curtis? Zhang Jiao looked at William's office, which had been mentioned several times, and turned off the TV with great satisfaction.
In the past few days, the police chief has worked hard to fulfill the terms they had signed.
He looked at the documents sent in by his previous secretary, Susan, and looked at the two detectives who had just passed the entrance test, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that it is time to put the earthly tablet in the hands of the royal family of Sanstanya on the agenda. ”
He was thinking? While looking ahead.
At the desk, Ann is like a little girl who has gotten a new rag doll? Teasing the five ghosts excitedly, he kept talking? "Why don't you speak, tell me what you all know?"
"Tell me? I'll order you a few little dresses later? Keep you dressed up beautifully? How?"
The five ghosts looked at the sand sculpture woman in front of them who kept rubbing themselves with a gloomy face, and their expressions became more and more hideous, and they couldn't wait to tear her mouth directly so that they could be quiet for a while.
But this kind of thinking is just a thought, and as the reminder grows larger, their intelligence grows, and they know what they can and can't do.
Just like the "Secret Meaning Five Wheel Book" in front of me, it was difficult for them to understand the five elements of spells written on it before, but now they can use similar spells just by the spell effect depicted in the book, although the method of casting may be very different from the one described in the book, but the effect is not much different.
After all, as the five visceral ghosts born by mixing the evil qi of the five elements, they are born with an affinity for the power of the five elements that humans do not have.
Here, seeing Zhang Jiao coming over, the five ghosts suddenly seemed to have met a savior, and instantly broke free from Ann's clutches, gathered at Zhang Jiao's feet, and kowtowed and shouted in unison.
"Sir. ”
Ann looked at the who had slipped out of her hands in a puddle of water, and her expression became more and more curious.
She hurriedly came to Zhang Jiao's side, grabbed a five ghost who was about to hide behind Zhang Jiao, and said curiously while rubbing its wrinkled head.
"Boss, what the hell are they, they're so cute! I'd like to have one too. ”
Zhang Jiao subconsciously glanced at the five ghosts hiding behind his legs, how could he not associate them with cuteness.
Black does not slip in autumn, soil does not pull a few, green ......
None of the colors and shapes of this hunt seem to be normal.
Zhang Jiao looked at An in front of him with a strange expression, he never thought that her aesthetics would be so distorted, and then said.
"They're the five visceral ghosts, bred by a spell, so you should consider them to be demon pets. As for whether you can raise it, I can tell you clearly, no. ”
"Unless you can have the same super regenerative ability as the Regeneration Man, you're afraid you won't have enough for them to eat for two meals. ”
With that, Zhang Jiao walked to the desk and put away the "Secret Meaning: Five Wheels" that had been exchanged from the end of the Dongying copy.
Originally, he wanted to let the five ghosts learn more five element spells from above, but at that time, the five ghosts' spiritual wisdom had not grown to the present, and they couldn't understand many of the five element spells listed in the Five Wheel Book at all.
Zhang Jiao, because of Fang Tian's edict, couldn't feel the power of the five elements at all, so he couldn't talk about how to teach the five ghosts to learn and cultivate.
Therefore, this "Secret Meaning Five Wheels" has been put on hold by him for the time being, and it was not until recently that the five ghosts had taken shape a little and his wisdom was opened, and he took it out for self-study.
It's just that from the current point of view, the effect of this "Secret Meaning Five Wheels" is not very ideal, and it can only be said that the price of the exchange at that time is right, after all, it only cost a hundred merits when it was exchanged.
Many of the Five Element Spells recorded in the book can be cast by the Five Ghosts just by instinct, and they don't need to be as troublesome as described above.
The reason why I let them continue to read it now is to let them know more about the effects of the spells recorded in the book, broaden their horizons, and use their instincts more flexibly.
An naturally didn't know this, after she heard Zhang Jiao say that she couldn't raise these five ghosts, her expression was suddenly a little lost, and the fire ghost caught by her was even more unlucky.
The already wrinkled facial features were suddenly rubbed like a leper dog, and they stepped on one fold after another.
Ann said unwillingly.
"Boss, is it really not good?"
Zhang Jiao said "um" affirmatively.
An's face was suddenly filled with disappointment, and after she picked up the fire ghost in her arms and played for a while, she asked curiously, "Boss, what is the use of the five of them?
"Can you deliver a message, or borrow a part of the master's power to cast a spell?"
Zhang Jiao looked at the girl in front of him with a thirst for knowledge, and a malicious smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
"You really want to know?"
An immediately felt a trace of inexplicable panic flash in her heart, but she didn't think much about it, instead nodded, and said, "I want to know." ”
"Okay, then I'll tell you. ”
Zhang Jiao walked over, and then, in Ann's incredible gaze, grabbed the fire ghost she was holding in her arms into a ball of sparks.
In the splash of bright green firelight, An suddenly froze in place.
She looked at the fire in Zhang Jiao's hand, her body involuntarily retreated, and she stammered a word.
"Old... Boss... You... You ......"
Before An finished speaking, Zhang Jiao, who was standing at the desk, had already quietly pasted it in front of her.
Zhang Jiao's pale and delicate face suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
An looked at the face in front of him, which did not look like a human, and immediately subconsciously let out a scream.
"Boss, don't !!"
In the midst of the frightened cry, a bland word immediately came to Ann's ears.
"You'll know right away what it's for. ”
In the flat voice, An looked at the white palm that he had inserted into his heart, and his expression was full of Brother Jin.
"Old... Boss... For... What ......"
Zhang Jiao looked at An's disbelievable eyes, withdrew his palm calmly, and then said, "What is why? What are you stammering?"
Ann reacted at this time, and then subconsciously touched her flat chest, looked left and right, and found no scars, as if the arm inserted into her heart earlier was an illusion.
She looked at Zhang Jiao, who had returned to her seat, and before the question in her mouth could be spoken, a cool but restless power suddenly flowed out of her heart.
Ann snorted instinctively.
I saw two meter-long green flames suddenly erupt from her nose, turning the paper that Zhang Jiao threw over casually into ashes, and there was no residue left.
"I... I'm breathing fire?"
Ann, who was in a state of bewilderment, immediately covered her nose, and before she could react, the power of her transformer's bloodline was affected by the power transmitted by the fire ghost.
Ann's body immediately shook involuntarily.
Kung Fu in the blink of an eye.
Scattered among the clothes and pantyhose on the carpet, a crimson lizard the size of a basin crawled out.
The lizard is slender, with a pair of thin fleshy wings on its scaly back, somewhat similar to the wings of a bat.
An Crimson looked at the clothes scattered on the ground, but he didn't feel too surprised by this, but felt a little strange about his inexplicable transformation.
Especially with the transformation of this form now, she seems to have never changed before.
"When am I going to change this thing?"
Just as Ann was thinking, the irritation that surged up her throat made her mouth open with fangs.
"Roar!!
In the low roar, black smoke mixed with sparks constantly came out of the mouth of the Western doctor.
A moment later, a hot flame erupted from her mouth and struck Zhang Jiao, who was sitting directly across from her.
The flames were scorched and blackened by the flames that stretched across the carpet, desk, and even the wall between them.
Zhang Jiao stood in the flames, feeling the temperature coming from the flames, staring at the crimson lizard in front of him with great interest, and whispered in his mouth.
"Is this the fantasy species that shapeshifters can form? Ann has the ability to turn into a dragon?"
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Jiao shook his head with a smile.
"Where can this be called a dragon! It's clearly a lizard that can breathe fire, and it's far from the image of the dragon in the CG I see. ”
But An Ke in front of her didn't feel like this, she felt the power surging in her body, and couldn't help but want to roar again, but before she could roar out, the red ghost that was stuffed into Zhang Jiao immediately came out of her body.
The salamander, which was showing off its might, suddenly withered for a while, and instantly changed back to its original form.
Ann looked at herself sitting on the ground, and then at the clothes that had been burned to ashes by herself, and suddenly let out a scream, and then turned into a gray finch and flew out of the window.
Zhang Jiao looked at the red ghost who ran in front of him, and then looked at the office that smelled of burning, and shook his head helplessly.
"Well, it looks like we're going to have to spend money on redecorating. ”
Just as he was planning to extend An's internship for another month, Zhang Jiao, who was standing in the office, suddenly raised his head and looked to the right outside the office through several walls.
That's where the restrooms on the 36th floor of the Sherman Building are located.
In the bathroom, a man in a leather jacket hid in the toilet and quickly pulled out a necklace from his neckline.
The necklace is adorned with five white and bony twenty-sided dice.
On the dice, the gold and silver inlaid numbers faintly shine with a charming brilliance.
The man removed the dice from the necklace, grabbed them in his hand, shook them gently, and threw them into his other hand.
"Over 80, over 80 ......"
The dice soon stopped in a whispered call, and the dice flashing with the number twenty immediately appeared in front of his eyes.
The man looked at the numbers on the dice, and suddenly let out a small sound of surprise.
"!! 100 Successful !!"
"My credit card saved !!"
