Chapter 138: Bella Arrives in New York

Seeing that others are getting rich, Bella is a little envious of this, and invests in Koenigsegg, which causes the money in her hands to shrink significantly, and now she can't afford cosmetics!

She sped up her writing, and two days later, she flew to New York with the manuscript she had corrected three times, a total of 420,000 words of the Da Vinci code.

Bella is going to Random House to discuss the publication.

Los Angeles also has publishers, but in terms of scale, they are nowhere near as large as New York.

Quentin. Baker's zodiac killer sells well in California because of the popularity here, and his books are not popular on the East Coast, and Bella's positioning of the Da Vinci Code is the whole world, and she must not give her book to a publisher here in Los Angeles.

Random House, Harper. Collins, Simon and Schuster, the top three publishers in the United States, are all in New York.

If she wanted her book to be seen by more people, she had to come to New York.

Traveling to New York, and her unknown thoughts.

Bella is really annoyed by the endless, wherever she goes, where something happens, who can stand this! This time I came to New York alone, just to see if it was her own physical problem, or whether it was someone else's self that had suffered, and this 'other' was referring to that cheap sister in her heart......

After getting off the plane, she didn't go straight to Random House, it was useless to go, people didn't know her at all!

She is still the old way, looking for relationships and acquaintances to introduce.

Bella gave the fat old man she met during the events of the Grim Reaper, John. Professor Grey called.

Although she didn't go to Bard College, she and the old man have always had some email contact, plus their previous friendship, they are not strangers.

The fat old man welcomed her and showed her around Bard College.

After hearing her intentions, John. Professor Grey wants her to keep the manuscript with her, the fat old man is a very strict person, he will not say that we have a good relationship, I will show my old face to embarrass for you, he must at least read it himself, and after recognizing the value, he will recommend it to students who work as editors in major publishers.

It's a normal process, and Bella doesn't have any objections, her original plan was to stay in New York for a few days.

"Excuse me, Professor."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

After a few polite words, Bella politely took her leave. Professor Grey invited her to sit at home, but she hurriedly excused herself. Your daughter is Jean. Grey, right? In case the Dark Phoenix breaks out directly, can you bear it?

Stay away!

Declined John. At the invitation of Professor Grey, she found a hotel to sleep in for the night, and the next day went straight to the New York Public Library.

There are a lot of people in the library, there is no Spider-Man running around here at this time, the library is very quiet, looking at the sturdy bookshelves, and the rows of thick books, Bella's inspiration suddenly emerged, took out the pen and paper she carried with her, and started her own writing (copying) book business again.

The New York Public Library touched her mind and reminded her of a very famous movie in her previous life, the day after tomorrow.

The film mainly tells the story of the melting of icebergs in the northern hemisphere due to the greenhouse effect, and the earth enters the second ice age.

In the face of the terrible low temperature, the protagonists in the movie finally escaped by closing the doors and windows in the New York Public Library and burning books.

After the exercise of the Da Vinci code, her writing skills are already quite good at this time, and the story of the day after tomorrow is not complicated, and it is no problem to write a short story at all.

She was working hard to retell the story in her head, and before the library was about to close, she had completed a third of it, or about 8,000 words.

She sorted out the manuscript, and her gaze inadvertently lifted up, only to find an old man sitting in front of her.

She had no idea how much time the old man had been there, and the other person didn't seem to exist in her perception at all, but her eyesight could see the old man clearly.

Bald head, gentle face, meticulously dressed in suit and tie, and in a wheelchair! The old man was looking at her with a smile.

This is the mentor of the X-Men, Magneto's best friend and lifelong enemy, Charles. Professor Xavier, also known as Professor X.

Bella didn't pretend to be confused, because there was no need for that at all.

She knew John. It is not surprising that Professor Grey, who knows Storm Girl, has come into the sight of Professor Charles, and the two have mutual friends, but they have never met each other.

Bella was curious about the purpose of the old bald head coming to her: "Professor Charles? Are you looking for me? ”

The old man did not answer the question directly, but pointed to the short story she had written: "Why is Miss Swan so pessimistic?" Is our world, our civilization, so fragile in your mind? Have we reached the point where we are going to face the end of the world? ”

Bella looked down at the manuscript she had written, and simply looking at the first half of the plot the day after tomorrow, she would indeed have a premonition that humanity was about to perish, because it was too miserable.

She didn't explain the second half of her short story.

She and Professor Charles' paths are different, but they are both leaders in mind-manipulating abilities, and in a way, spells and abilities are the same, and there is no difference when they reach a certain level.

Bella thought about it quite seriously, carefully dissected her true inner world, why did she write this story?

After five minutes of silence, she was surprised to find that Professor Charles was right, looking at her heart from an objective point of view, she was indeed full of pessimism about the future, but this pessimism was deeply hidden.

Her pessimism is all for her family, for Charlie, for Samantha, for Black Widow who jumped off a cliff in exchange for a soul gem.

Stark's sacrifice can bring a whole bunch of people to the funeral, but what about Black Widow? There is nothing, and if you say you die, you will die, or you are trapped in the world of soul gems, and you can't be resurrected at all.

Bella never knew that Natasha's status in her heart was so high, and the sad emotions gathered in her heart one by one, converging into a stream, surging from her spiritual world to the material world.

"Why am I so sad all of a sudden?"

"I thought of my deceased dad!"

"I don't know why, but I just want to cry!"

Bella's grief affected the entire library, her face was full of bitterness, and her weak will cried out in pain, and the vast library seemed to be surrounded by endless sadness in an instant.

Professor Charles's tone was still so gentle: "Please calm down, Miss Swan, and don't spread your emotions any more. ”

The old bald head is not panicked at all about the explosion of mentality, because he has seen too much! The more powerful the psychic ability, the more fragile the psychic it is sometimes.
