Chapter 378: I Can't Hold It Back
"Long time no see, my old friend. Doom appeared in Dr. Reed's lab in a well-groomed and personable manner. Dr. Reed, who was experimenting with a new potion, was taken aback.
And Susan, who was helping him, looked at Doom in disbelief when she heard this voice, and then said in an even more incredible voice: "Doom?
Doom bowed slightly: "Yes, that's right, Susan." It's me, your old friend, Doom. ”
Susan grows her mouth, and Reed puts down what she is doing. He looked at the handsome face in front of him, overlapping the one he remembered. Yes, this is my college classmate, Doom, whom I used to dislike.
But wasn't he disfigured? Reed remembered the experiment at the time, and it could be said that the experiment completely ruined Doom's proud and handsome face. And now Doom is restored?
Reed looked at Doom incredulously, and the surprise in his voice was no less than that of Susan: "Doom, but, but your face?"
Li Jie came with Doom, afraid that Doom would be stimulated and kill Dr. Reed or something. Because Dr. Reed is still important. So Li Jie has actually been secretly guarding against the fear that Doom will hurt Dr. Reed.
Doom smiled wickedly (Jay Lee: Well, at least I think he smiled wickedly. And then he said, "Surprised? Actually, I ......."
But before Doom could finish his words, Dr. Reed and Susan suddenly rushed up excitedly and grabbed Doom's shoulders left and right. This made Doom's words hold back, and he didn't know what was happening all of a sudden.
Could it be that Reid thinks the East Window Incident has happened and wants to do it to herself? and in fact Susan is also behind the whole thing? She already knew that everything that happened all those years ago was not an accident?
So she's going to help Reed get rid of herself now?Doom's heart turned a thousand times in an instant, with anger and sighs.
But these two people think too highly of themselves, even though I, Doom, didn't come here wearing the Armor of Destruction right now. But that doesn't mean I don't have any ability to resist. I'm a decent mage who can fight head-on!
Doom felt like he was about to show off his magical powers. And Li Jie, who was eating melons on the side, couldn't figure out what the situation was for a while.
And just as Doom was preparing for the magic exercise, Dr. Reed suddenly said loudly, "Your appearance has been restored?
There was nothing fake in his tone, but he really looked like a person who cared about his old classmates and friends.
And Susan also looked at Doom with tears in her eyes, and she said with some excitement: "Doom, it's amazing. I'm so excited that you're here for you today. It's really amazing. ”
What's the situation now? Don't say that Li Jie can't figure it out, even Doom himself is confused.
"You know what? Actually, the two of us have been trying to figure out how to heal your appearance for years. Some progress has been made, but it has not always been enough. Reed said as he patted Doom on the shoulder.
"To be able to see you recover today. As an old classmate, this is my happiest moment. ”
The way it unfolds is completely different from what Doom had expected. Still, he found some doubts in Reed's words.
He asked, with some suspicion, "Help me get back to my face?"
Reed looked at Doom and said seriously, "I was a terrible person when I was younger. You know, very bad kind. I'm not dealing with you. The two of us competed in school. ”
"From academic performance, to social practice, and even the pursuit of Susan. Reed said these words calmly: "I hated you at that time, and I hated you very much. Even when the experiment accidentally disfigured you completely, I had a hint of schadenfreude. ”
"I think that's God's revenge on you for ruining my biosphere plan. God knows how crazy I was at the time, and now that you think about it, you were right to ruin my biosphere plan back then. At that time, I did think very highly of myself and got carried away. Reed said these words, reminiscing about the past.
His openness made Doom unsure, did the accident have anything to do with Reed?
"And now I know a lot and understand a lot of things. I also understood that the competition between me and you didn't actually make much sense at that time. Reed said in a big way. At the same time, Susan also walked up to Reed, stood beside him, and said to Doom, "Yes, Doom. We've wanted to see you all these years, but we're afraid to bring back your memories of the past and the terrible accident. We've always been afraid that these will cast a shadow on you. ”
"You want to see me?" said Doom, feeling a little confused. He prides himself on being one of the few smart people in the world, but the current situation is really not something he can control and understand.
"Why do you want to see me?" asked Doom, who was watching from the sidelines, wondered. Because what happened on the scene was beyond his comprehension.
"That's a long story. But can I say that you were actually my role model for a while?" said Dr. Reed, much to Doom's surprise.
"I wasn't very successful in life, you know. My plan to win the Nobel Prize for the ecosystem has been blown up by you. After that, he participated in the research work of many laboratories and made money, but he lost all his money because of the failure of the investment. ”
The story of Reed's failed investmentLi Jie knows that this genius scientist first invested in Lehman Brothers, and then the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers detonated the Great Wall Street crisis. The subprime mortgage crisis has affected the world.
After finally getting out of the debt quagmire, he invested in Enron, and as a result, the top 10 investment banks in the United States also went bankrupt immediately, and this investment did not bring Reed a penny of profit, but owed millions of dollars in debt. It can be said that the two bankruptcies had a huge impact on Reed's life.
"I'll tell you the truth, it was the darkest time of my life. He even thought about using all kinds of improper means to seek profits to repay debts and make profits. Thankfully, Susan stopped me at the time. Reed patted Susan's hand, which was afraid of him.
"She was always there to encourage me in my ear. Whenever I couldn't hold on, she would always remind me, "Are you hard? But can you work harder than Doom?" 】”
"Some people say he's a tyrant and a dictator, but we all know very well what kind of person Doom is. In his hands, Latvia is at least much better than it was during the division of Eastern Europe. I believe that he will be able to bring all the conveniences of food, clothing, shelter and transportation to his people, and that he will be better done by the vast majority of rulers. 】”
""Look at Doom, you're looking at you. You've been comparing you to Doom since you were in school. Now Doom is the king of a country, and he has done all this with his wounds. You're just going bankrupt, simply bankrupt. Can you face more difficulties than Doom to unify Latvia from scratch? Even today Latvia is a regional power that cannot be ignored in Eastern Europe. Do you want to lose to Doom?
"Do you think you're inferior to Doom or do you think you're going to lose to someone who has been badly injured? You're luckier than Doom, at least I'm by your side. If you're a man, stand up! You have the ability!Or did I choose the wrong guy in the first place, and I should have been with Doom rather than you?]"
Dr. Reed said these words in a tone that Susan had embarrassed to hide her head behind Dr. Reed.
"Whenever Susan said these words, there was always a kind of blood stirring in my heart. I've actually always treated you like a competitor. It was, and it is. But the meaning of competition is different now. Dr. Reed looked at Doom and said seriously.
"Now you're more of a role model for me to remind myself, even though sometimes you're really crazy. But I have always admired your dedication and hard work. This is spurring me to keep moving forward and find ways to get better and better. ”
On the other hand, Doom was completely confused, why did he become a role model for Reed in everything he did? inspired him to get out of the dark trough?
Looking at the completely stunned Doom, the nightkin Li Jie stood in the corner and forced a smile, Doom was dressed up so aggressively today and made so many preparations, he definitely didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing.
You can't laugh yourself, you can't laugh. If he laughs, Doom will definitely get himself in trouble. Hold on, hold on, poof~. Li Jie finally couldn't hold back a laugh, but quickly held back the [hahaha] behind him.
But even this caused Doom's angry eyes, and in the face of Doom's murderous eyes, Li Jie said lightly: "What are you looking at, can't superheroes still hold back their farts?"
