cpT, in the elevator.
Brigitte, who saw something new, stayed in the elevator for a while curiously, looking left and right, trying to find out where the so-called control system was. So Alex patiently explained to her that such an elevator structure is actually not complicated, and it only took a minute or two to understand.
"I see!" Brigitte nodded seriously and said, "In the future, this kind of automatic elevator will definitely replace those old-fashioned elevators!" ”
"Oh? Why do you think so? Alex looked at Brigitte in surprise, thinking that she looked pretty smart. When Alex insisted on building this kind of elevator, many people couldn't understand that there were some computer parts used in it, and the value of these things alone was enough to hire many employees to work for ten years.
At that time, the opponents said: "This is simply an elevator made of gold, and it is simply useless!" The cost is so high, no one will buy it and use it! ”
At Alex's insistence, the only few elevators were built, and this kind of secret passage was specially installed, which reduced the opposition a lot. After all, in such a place, basically the people who come in and out are the company's top management. If a black person is in charge of opening and closing the elevator inside, and when you enter the elevator and see a black person standing next to you, it will make many people feel uncomfortable.
But I didn't expect that Brigitte, a woman who seemed to have big breasts and no brains, could see the future prospects of the automatic elevator at a glance, and she was much more powerful than those experts who kept opposing it.
"Of course, technology is getting better and better. In the future, it will definitely be the era when machines will replace manpower. Brigitte said rightly.
After seeing Alex's expression, she explained with a smile, "Haha." I've read several science fiction novels in a row these days, such as the three laws of machine qì people or something, and I feel pretty powerful! ”
Alex smiled and entered the top floor office with the cute Persian cat in his arms, and as he passed by the office of the finance department, he happened to meet the treasurer.
This treasurer is a beautiful woman, both from the eyes of the times and from the eyes of the modern age. This woman is very beautiful and has a temperament.
This woman named Christian is only twenty-seven years old this year, but she is the treasurer of cpT Records, and she has huge rights, and the transfer of funds below a million dollars can be handled by herself without Alex's approval.
A million dollars may not seem like much, but to date, there are not many businesses in record companies that require more than a million dollars of investment.
So since Alex integrated the family business. He was basically laissez-faire and didn't manage the company's finances much. In fact, he is not afraid of Christian's secret tricks, his ability to check other people's memories, naturally knows who is loyal and who is treacherous, if there is a guy with a little bad intentions, Alex will not hesitate to slowly transfer him from his original position. Then exclude it from the core.
All the accounts are handled by this Christian alone.
The company is well organized.
Alex is like an invisible person, who has no role at all.
After entering the company, Alex's every move alarmed many people, and this Christian immediately received a report from his subordinates. His immediate boss comes to the company and enters Alex's office.
After a few thoughtful thoughts. Christian left his office, holding a stack of financial reports, and knocked on Alex's office door.
"Come in."
Christian took a deep breath, pushed open the door and walked in, "Good morning, sir!" ”
"Good morning, Christian, do you have anything to do with me?" Alex asked, sitting in his place. Brigitte had left his arms by this time and was sitting on another sheet of sand.
Christian walked over, put a large pile of report sheets on the table in front of Alex, and said, "Mr. Carpenter, this is our financial report for this month, I think you should check it." ”
"Okay, you put it on the table, I'll take a look at it sometime!"
In fact, there is no need to look at it at all, Alex only needs to find a chance to touch each other, and then enter the mental space to ask the replica puppet, and he can know if there is a problem with these reports. But the purpose of his coming to the company today was not to do this, but to find Chuck and them.
As Christian was about to turn to leave, Alex suddenly said to her, "You help me inform Chuck, I have something to look for him!" ”
"Chuck?" Christian was stunned for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Well, I heard that he was sick and hospitalized. ”
"Huh?" Alex was taken aback, and he asked, "What's sick?" Why didn't anyone notify me? ”
"Oh, because Chuck said don't alarm too many people, so only a few people know. I only found out from other people, and he didn't seem to want this to get the word out. ”
"That's it, then you can call Little Richard, I'll look for him!"
"He's sick too!"
Christian said calmly.
"No, it won't! Little Richard is also sick? ”
Alex noticed that there was something unusual about this. He asked, "What's going on?" Do you have something you didn't sue me? ”
Christian lowered his head, thought about it for a moment, and finally decided to tell Alex the truth.
"I've heard," she said...... I've heard that the two of them were doing witchcraft and somehow got sick! ”
Sorcery? No, could it be that Chuck wanted to study witchcraft with little Richard and accidentally got into a problem?
Alex recalled little Richard's message about his witchcraft, and if it had been more than a month ago, maybe he wouldn't have taken it seriously. But since he learned that there are legendary creatures such as vampires and werewolves, Alex has seen the world from a completely different perspective.
It turns out that he has always seen the world from the perspective of an ordinary person. But in the process of contact with Hughes, Rockefeller and others. Beneath the surface of the world now, there are many secrets that no one knows. These secrets seem a little absurd. But no matter how absurd things are, Alex has also experienced them.
His rebirth is incredible, and since such things can be born, it is not impossible for vampires and werewolves to appear.
I didn't know before, but it was because he hadn't reached this level yet, and when Alex climbed to this position, he came into contact with more and more truths about the world. Mysterious organizations such as Freemasonry, Illuminati, and Mormonism have emerged one by one, and they will come to the door on their own without him having to chase them.
Case. So little Richard knows witchcraft or something, that's a normal thing.
Thinking of this, Alex smiled apologetically at Brigitte, "It seems that I won't have a chance to go to New York City with you this time, a friend of mine is sick and needs to go to the hospital!" ”
After saying that, he turned to Christian and said, "Don't talk about this matter everywhere, it will affect the company and other people's rumors." If it has a negative effect, it will be very troublesome! ”
Christian nodded and agreed, "Okay, I understand!" I've only mentioned it to you! ”
"Well, okay! You're good to go! ”
After Alex kicked her out, he thought about it and picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Hey? I'm Alex! You have a few hands over there. I have a friend in New York who needs your protection! ”
After putting down the phone, he explained to Brigit, "I'm sending some bodyguards, if you want to go out, remember to take them out with you!" This is New York. Not Paris, be safe outside! ”
Brigitte nodded. Expressing her understanding, she said, "Why don't I go to the hospital with you, I also want to walk around!" ”
"Well, there are a lot of germs in a place like a hospital, I don't want you to stay in that kind of place for too long!"
Alex refuses Brigit's request, because he is worried that with Brigitte by his side, it will not be convenient for him to talk to Little Richard and them. After all, this meeting will talk about witchcraft or something, and maybe there are some things that others can't hear.
After saying goodbye to Brigitte, he immediately rushed to the hospital, where he soon found Chuck and them, who were being treated.
"Boss!" Chuck could barely believe his eyes when he saw Alex.
Little Richard on the side was also taken aback, and he said to Alex, "How do you know that we are hospitalized?" ”
"I had just come back from Paris and I had a script in my hand and needed a black actor." Alex looked at the two of them, didn't see anything wrong, and continued: "Originally, I wanted to find a professional actor, but then I thought you could also make a cameo. How's that, who wants to star in this movie? Declare in advance that there is only one character! ”
Chuck and Little Richard glanced at each other, both of them hung their heads, and finally Chuck said, "Boss, I'm afraid neither of us can act in this movie!" ”
"Oh? What's wrong? ”
Alex was a little surprised that he didn't see anything unusual about the two of them. It stands to reason that such a good thing will never be missed. Especially Chuck, this guy is always clamoring to make movies, and now he has such a good opportunity, so he actually refused?
Chuck smiled awkwardly as he pulled his left hand out of his pocket and reached out to Alex.
I saw that the hand was covered with hair, like the claws of a wild beast, and it didn't look like a human hand anyway.
"Is this ......," Alex asked hesitantly.
"Alas!" Little Richard sighed and explained, "Didn't I tell you about witchcraft before? We've been working on this since we got back to New York. During the period, I also made some results, and I originally wanted to tell you later. ”
Little Richard simply took out his hands as well, and sure enough, both of his hands had become beasts, becoming the same as Chuck's left hand.
"Huh? Is this what you've come up with? ”
Chuck was quick to talk next to him, and he immediately shouted, "We didn't expect such a thing to happen!" A week ago, we found a fragment of an ancient witchcraft that recorded the secret art of how to bring out human potential. Originally, we used it well, and using this secret technique has increased the strength, degree, and recovery power of the body a lot. But ......"
"But after a long time, its side effect also came out, that is, it gradually degenerated into a beast!" Little Richard continued.
Chuck firmly disagreed with such a statement, and he said loudly: "Not degenerate into a beast, but atavism!" I heard the doctor say that this is an atavistic phenomenon! ”
"Degradation? Atavism? ”
Alex looked at their hands and thought to himself, "This situation is certainly not some kind of degradation, nor is it what is called atavism in medicine. It must have activated something, but they accidentally didn't control it properly, and this situation was created! ”
"And you didn't say anything about the side effects of that sorcery?" Alex asked.
Chuck and the others immediately became depressed, and said with a sad face, "If there is anything to say, we will not dare to use it indiscriminately!" ”
"Is your witchcraft really that powerful? Can you show me how powerful it is? ”
Alex asked again, still skeptical of such things as witchcraft. I can't believe it without seeing it with my own eyes.
