Chapter 45: Old John is Lost
On Monday, Suray went out early, followed by Orange.
In the words of Tachibana, it means "to see the big city".
After telling the orange not to get into trouble when he arrives in Los Angeles, Suray and lawyer Otto have identified a place and are ready to drive along the way.
The blue Ford F150 slowly drove out of the manor, Suray holding the steering wheel with one hand and the other on the window, looking at the land that was gradually being sorted out and satisfied.
Yesterday Brand's construction team was very serious, and after cleaning the building, they helped Geralt clean the farm again.
Now the dead branches and leaves on the farm are gone, and the workers have made a row of fences out of leftover timber scraps, replacing the simple wire gate at the farm's entrance.
This kind of American pastoral decoration Su Lei likes very much.
But it always feels like something is missing.
Su Lei raised his eyes and looked around, a little inexplicable.
What's missing?
Instead, Tangerine spoke in the co-pilot: "Master, where is the old man of the dead spirit?"
"Did you use it to practice?"
Tangerine looked at Su Lei with disdain, heyβsomeone insisted on stealing from himself.
Hold a big grass!
Only then did Su Lei realize that the iron box where Old John lived was gone!
Ignoring the argument with the orange, Su Lei stopped the car and walked to the place where the iron box had been placed.
Only a flat area remains, and the original overgrown weeds were cleared yesterday.
Sulei stood in place with a black line.
If you look closely, there are traces of trampling and leveling on the ground, because Su Lei deliberately buried half of the iron box in the soil when he placed it.
Old John won't be picked up as garbage by the workers, will he?
Finish the calf!
Although John Sr. did not contribute much to the farm, he provided Suray with perfect information on several occasions.
It's more or less affectionate.
Su Lei rubbed his teeth, a little big, where to find Old John?
Necromancy also has necromantic limitations, they must be attached to objects, and they can only come out at night, at least that's what Old John said.
With Los Angeles as big and hundreds of centralized garbage disposal centers, Suray was a little worried that John Sr. had gone into the incinerator.
Poor old John, who did not enter it during his lifetime, will make up for it after his death.
Finding the nearest garbage disposal center on his phone, and just in time to stop by Otto's lawyer's office, Surrey decided to try his luck.
"Tangerine, you feel the breath of old John. Su Lei said casually.
"Ah, the breath of spring~" The orange kicked the seat on the back foot, and the two front paws grabbed the window, poking the cat's head out to blow the wind, and the wind brought up by the car stuffed the orange's mouth to the brim.
"During the day, the breath of Old John's necromancy is very faint, and I don't necessarily feel it. β
"Do your best. "Suray doesn't want to change the goalkeeper so quickly.
Su Lei drove the car for more than ten kilometers, and on both sides of the road were some dilapidated factories.
However, it is still running, and from time to time you can hear the sound of machinery coming from the factory.
"Master, ahead!" the orange jumped up and landed on the dashboard of the car.
"I felt the necromantic aura of Old John in front of me. β
Tangerine raised one of his front paws and pointed to a path diagonally across from Sulei.
Hearing this, Su Lei's heart was relieved, and he drove into a wide road.
"This road is an auxiliary road to Los Angeles Airport. Glancing at the navigation, Su Lei was a little puzzled.
How could old John be in such a place.
"It's just ahead. "But Old John's breath is faint, and I need to get closer to make sure." β
Su Lei's car gradually accelerated, and a blurred black dot appeared on the road in front of him.
As he approached, Sulei gradually saw the black spot, which was a large garbage truck parked on the side of the road.
"Old John was in the car. Tangerine stood up and shook his tail at the center console, and said to Su Lei.
"Are you sure?"
"I can feel it. β
Su Lei controlled the car to slow down and gradually approach the garbage truck.
Seeing the whole picture of the garbage truck, Su Lei somewhat believed that Old John was here, and there were a lot of grass and branches on the garbage import of the garbage truck.
This is a thing in one's own farm.
"Hey, man, do you need help?" said Su Lei, who got out of the car and greeted the two workers on the side of the road.
Su Lei could see from a distance that the two men were discussing something intensely.
Hearing Su Lei's words, the two people who were talking turned their heads, and Su Lei saw what was in front of the worker clearly.
A huge piece of car fragments.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir. An emaciated worker said.
"I'm afraid none of the three of us can do it. The other, a stronger man, said.
Su Lei asked with interest, "Do you want to move this piece of car debris to the garbage truck?"
Su Lei remembers that garbage trucks all have mechanical arms.
"The robotic arm in the car can't hold this thing in place. Said the emaciated worker.
"There must have been a drunk guy in a car accident last night. Said the strong worker.
"When we cleaned it a few days ago, there wasn't this piece of garbage. β
"I wish him forever in the hospital. β
Su Lei smiled sympathetically at the complaint.
Never drink while driving, Sulei firmly complied.
"Let me do it. β
"You open the intake. β
Su Lei took off his shirt and was going to see Otto today, he didn't want to go dirty.
Seeing that Su Lei insisted on this, it was difficult for the two of them to stop him.
"Man, be careful, don't rock your waist. β
"Come on, do you two want to watch a play?" Su Lei scolded with a smile.
The two workers burst into laughter.
"I'm going to open the incoming port first. The emaciated worker said.
"He's the driver. The strong worker whined at Sulei, "If only he were as strong as I am, maybe it would have been solved." β
The moment the emaciated worker opened the intake, the orange hidden under the wheels rushed up and turned into an orange afterimage and plunged into the garbage bin.
Su Lei smiled slightly when he saw this, this wave of cooperation was full marks.
"Come here, man, let's talk about how to lift the ......," Suray beckoned to the emaciated worker.
I need to buy some time for the oranges.
"You catch this...... You catch here......"
"Then I worked hard in front ......"
Su Lei chattered at the two of them.
The two workers nodded as they listened.
"Meowβ"
Su Lei, who was talking, heard a cat meow, and it seemed that Tangerine had found Old John.
"Come on, guys, I'll shout 1, 2, 3......" Suray beckoned.
......
Not far from Sulei, a silver-white sports car came galloping in, a Pauchi 911.
Music was playing in the car, and a man with a big back was driving, with his other hand on the co-pilot's lap.
"Letty, how about staying at my house at night?" the man's eyes lit up as he glanced over the girl in the passenger seat.
The girl named Letty grabbed the man's hand, "I have something to do at night......"
The man frowned: "What's the matter?"
Letty was obviously reluctant to say it, but seeing the man's gloomy face, her eyes rolled, and she said coquettishly: "A small meeting, the other party is a friend of the cooperative company......"
Seeing that the man was about to speak again, Letty took the man's hand and put it there, "It's only the first time I've met that person, you have to believe me." β
"Why don't you go to your house this afternoon? Letty took the man's hand and pressed it.
The man showed a hint of comfort, and the strength in his hand increased a little, and Letty frowned.
"In the afternoon, I happen to have a few new bikini ...... there."
"Don't think I don't know, Letty, how did you know me. β
"As long as it's not your grandparents, you can get along with him. β
There was a hint of disdain in the man's eyes as he stared at the steering wheel. γ
"My dear, I belong only to you now. Letty leaned over and kissed the man.
"Hahaha......" the man let out a burst of laughter.
"Look there, the group of natives from the countryside are actually carrying garbage by hand. β
Suddenly, the man pointed to a group of people on the side of the road.
"The garbage truck has a robotic arm, and they don't use it. The man scoffed.
"They're a bunch of people who live in the slums, and I don't think they even know how to drive......" Letty scoffed as well.
"Haha, dear, you're right, the slums are full of criminals. The man smiled unabashedly with pride.
Letty gave a flattering look to the side, "Honey, I don't know how to drive, can you teach me to drive?"
Listening to Letty's coquettish voice, the man smiled evilly and drilled his hand down.
"How about I teach you in the pool?"
"I like it~"

Su Lei and the three of them worked together to shove the car fragments into the garbage truck, and the two workers were gasping for air.
"Man, you're so strong. "Look at Su Lei's well-proportioned muscles.
The emaciated man smiled, "If I were a G.A.Y, I would definitely fall in love with you." β
Clapping his hands, Su Lei smiled and said, "Sorry sir, I won't let you approach me." β
Looking at some stains on his hands, Su Lei said to the thin man, "Is there water in the car? I need to wash my hands." β
The skinny man climbed into the cab, "There is a high-pressure faucet in the car, and the hands in it are clean. β
"Come on, I don't mind. Suray walked to the side of the car and reached for the water outlet.
Whew-
A powerful stream of water rushed out of the spout, and Su Lei carefully washed the stains from his hands.
The strong man on the other side also came up, "Don't close it yet, I'll wash it too." β
"Hey!"
A loud shout came from far and near, and Su Lei looked up suspiciously.
At this time, Su Lei was shaking his hand to let the water dry quickly, and he had to hurry to Los Angeles after a little delay on the way.
It's a beautiful Parch 911 with a silver-white body and screeching music.
Su Lei saw a man wearing sunglasses, and a beautiful woman next to him was leaning on the man's arms.
The man gestured his middle finger to his side, then tapped his thumb down.
After doing all this, the man roared away with one foot on the accelerator.
Yourself inexplicably despised?
Su Lei was wondering, and the reinforced man next to him said, "Man, don't be angry, a spoiled rich second generation." β
"It's not night, if it's night, you might be able to catch up with him, feed him a bullet, and take care of the chick around him for him. β
"It's a pity it's daytime. The strong man smashed his mouth and glanced at Sulei's Ford F150.
"Maybe your car can catch up with him. β
"I'm a law-abiding citizen. Su Lei waved his hand.
"I don't want to go to jail. The two laughed.
Back in the car, Suray saw Tangerine meowing in front of the iron box that was crouching.
"Is Old John alright?"
"He was terrified. Tangerine said to Su Lei.
"He thought you had abandoned him. Su Lei had a chill, and was said by a hundred-year-old man that he had abandoned him, and his flesh was numb to death.
Su Lei picked up the dirty iron box and threw it on the back seat: "Don't speculate, I'll find you a new home." β
At noon, Suray met lawyer Otto in a spacious office.
"Long time no see, old man. SurΓ© hugged Otto.
Otto muttered, "I'm a good friend of the old man, and you should respect me." He didn't expect Sulei to listen.
Looking down, Otto noticed that there was still an orange cat at Sure's feet.
"Hey, kitten, let me hug it. Otto couldn't help but say that he directly hugged the orange on his two front legs.
"Yo, it's still a lad. Seeing the two small furballs, Otto was disrespectful to the old man and reached out to play them.
The orange bared its teeth and tried to jump away from Otto's grasp.
Meow β
"Uncle Ben is going to eat him!ahhhh
Su Lei hurriedly snatched the orange from Otto's hand, pointed to the fish tank in Otto's office and said, "Orange, go over there." β
"I can't imagine you going out with a pet. Otto led Suray to the couch.
"Tangerine is a foodie. SurΓ© gave Otto a wake-up call.
"Lovely little guy, it's a pity I only have tea here. Otto didn't understand.
The corners of Su Lei's mouth twitched, and he saw the orange behind Otto jump directly onto the two-meter-high fish tank.
At this time, the eyes are staring at a few beautiful tropical fish without blinking.
"Are you worried about it eating fish?" Otto took out the tea leaves from under the cabinet and expertly brewed them.
"My fish tank is a sealed ......"
Su Lei nodded disappreciatively, took a cup of tea poured by Otto, and took a sip of it to his lips.
Out of the corner of his eye, Su Lei found that the orange had lifted the top layer of the fish tank......
Poor Otto...... Offended this great demon king.
