Powerful effects
"Of course." Add gave a thumbs up as she spoke, blinking like she as Maria closed the door in disbelief.
After a while, Maria took Thomas to the study, followed by Resley, and as soon as she entered the door, Resli rushed to Eddie's side and said, "Add, you scared us to death last night, we are all worried about your body,......"
Add raised his hand to interrupt Resley's continued words, stroked Resley's head like a loving father and said, "I'm fine, I'm really fine, my child, you see I'm as strong as usual." He deliberately showed off his floppy biceps to Resley.
"But ......", Eddie interrupted Resley again, looking at Thomas and Maria behind her.
"Maria and Resley let me talk to Thomas alone, okay? Please close the door, thank you. Resley looked at Add, and then at Maria.
Maria nodded helplessly to Resley, who obediently got up and left, walked up to Thomas, and said, "I hope you don't do anything out of the ordinary." ”
Thomas, on the other hand, didn't say anything, just held out two hands in agreement, and the two of them left the room in a huff.
"Call me for anything, I'm around." Resley spoke to Add before closing the door, and Add nodded in approval.
As soon as the door closed, Eddie sat up from the couch, and Thomas said in frustration, "I'm sorry for what happened last night, I didn't know you ......"
"No, no, no, you listen to me first, this matter has nothing to do with you, I know what the problem is, and the problem you said can be explained, before I say my idea, we have to reach a consensus, let's get to know each other openly and honestly, can we?" Eddie held out his right hand, waiting for Thomas's response.
Thomas thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, squeezed Eddie's hand, and the two agreed, then sat down and waited for Eddie's question. "Thomas, I probably know why this thing has gone off the rails, it's not your problem, it's not mine, in fact, this matter has to start from the beginning." Eddie's statement was a bit confusing, and of course he was willing to hear about it.
"Well, I'd love to hear your opinion as well."
"Yes." Eddie nodded and paused, he had to tell him in more layman's language, "Uh...... Thomas, I know that you are wary of us here, I understand this very well, after all, we have known each other for less than three days, and we have experienced unusual things that always make people doubt and wary of everything, which is inevitable, after a normal person sees the supernatural scene, it will inevitably affect his perception of the world, and even subvert it. ”
"No, it should be a contradiction in my case." Thomas corrected that his mood was heavy.
"Well, whatever it is, I think we should let our guard down and ...... from now on" Eddie was a little excited.
"I want to start with your abilities first." Thomas was the first to take the initiative in the conversation.
"Oh?" Eddie suddenly laughed and pointed at the cunning Thomas.
"Okay, then I'll do it first. I admit that I wasn't born with my abilities, but rather by chance. Add got up and poured himself a glass of water.
"My real name isn't Add, either. Rest. Thackeray, I also inherited Thackeray's name, my original name was Eddie. Rest, for as long as I can remember, I knew that I was adopted, because I had a very serious eye disease, when I was about 6 or 7 years old, I couldn't remember clearly, my eyes basically couldn't see anything clearly, the high medical expenses made my adoptive parents unbearable, I remember it seemed to be when I was 15 years old, I went to the forest alone, in fact, the way to the forest was very familiar to me, I don't know why I got lost that day and fell into a tree hole, what it was like there, I don't know, it doesn't matter to me anyway, But I can feel the cold, I can also hear the horror of the wind, I don't know how long I stayed in it, I guess it was two days, I was hungry and thirsty, I was scared, and I was ready to die, but just when I was dazed and ready to sleep, I saw a dazzling light, and out of the light came a person, more accurately an angel, he said that he would give me a pair of eyes, I asked him why, he didn't say, just told me that in the future these eyes will be the revelation, and since then I have this ability, which made my adoptive parents scared a lot, I told them the truth, they thought it was a miracle, and finally there was an even greater disaster in the village, and all of them died of an incurable disease overnight. Morality. Thackeray took me away from that village, and when Mr. Mill died, I inherited Thackeray's name. ”
"The whole village has an incurable disease?"
"Yes, a terrible plague...... I can't even imagine it now......" Eddie's way of wanting to speak again made Thomas have to think that this is the price of gaining the Vision and paying for it with the lives of the whole village, if this is the case, then Eddie's guilt is not light, and he did not ask the reason for this.
"I thought you were a family breeder."
"Did you say Thackeray?" Eddie smiled and denied, "Oh, of course not, in history, the previous generation of Thackeray will find his own successor to the next generation, because, like us who fight against demons, having a family will drag down the lives of our families after all, so we are all looking for the right person on our own, we are no different from the Puritans, no marriage and no children." ”
Phew, Thomas sighed, and Eddie continued, "So I discovered your secret last night, and there is a force in your body that resonates with my eyes, and I see and hear it. Eddie pointed to his ear.
Thomas listened very carefully, "I'm old, and my body can't handle this resonance, that's why the rest happened." Add coughed, "Thomas, you must be like me, and you are also protected by God." ”
Thomas was silent for a while, and then said hesitantly: "I don't know, it may be different from what you think, I am more like I walked on this road in a daze, completely accidentally." ”
"I don't understand what you mean, you don't seem to have accepted it voluntarily." Eddie said strangely.
Thomas also found it troublesome to explain to Eddie, so he decided to ask Alfie Miller to come out and explain, "Well, I don't know much about it, let's explain it to you." ”
This made Add even more strange, "Is anyone else coming with you?" ”
Thomas smiled boringly, calling to Affie Miller in his heart, Thomas stood at the window, this action made Eddie even more strange, from Thomas's oblique shadow, Affie Miller slowly rose, this action surprised Eddie, covering his mouth with his hands.
It wasn't until Afie Miller was completely standing in front of Eddie that he spread his wings with a snort, leaving Add completely stunned, and Afie Miller slowly pulled his hood back, revealing deep eyes, and he stared at Eddie's horrified eyes.
"Oh God." It was the only thing Eddie could say.

"Denkel, tell me about your plans." Maureen holds a Cuban cigar in one hand and whiskey in the other.
"Well, this Sophia will have a good talk with you in the future. There's also a tricky thing, and that's the person. You should know I'm talking about that. ”
Maureen recalled, and something suddenly occurred to him, "Oh. I know, of course, I've already arranged it, and you don't have to bother with this. ”
Denkel sneered, "I've heard that things didn't go as smoothly as expected, and I killed three policemen and escaped." ”
"What do you mean?" Maureen felt very shameless.
"I heard from Miss Ferina, your channel has no reliable news so far, so you can only wait for the other party to appear." Denkel looked at Maureen lightly.
Morin felt very embarrassed and changed his position on the sofa, "Ha, this, the police department has intervened, I believe there will be good news in the near future." ”
"I have deep doubts about this, the efficiency of the police ......," Denkel made an unflattering gesture, "ha, let me do it." He turned back to Sophia and said, "You arrange for Sendesas to handle this matter, and let him handle it himself." Sophia nodded and wrote it down in her notebook.
Morin pondered about this matter, and didn't know why the "demon" had a strong interest in this ordinary person, and it was not a bad thing for him that someone was willing to accept this hot potato.
"Okay, I'll have our chief in charge of the police department, Hunter, contact your people, and hope that we can build a strong-looking alliance." Although Morin was embarrassed and reluctant on the surface, he was happy in his heart.
"Alright, Councilor Morin, it seems that we have reached a preliminary consensus, and Sophia will handle the rest, I wish us a happy cooperation." Denkel clinked glasses with Maureen, and Denkel continued, "Councillor Maureen, it looks like I'm going to have to take my leave." ”
Denkel smiled as he dressed, "You know, people my age often have to talk to my personal doctor, and it's good for me to listen to his advice, and I have a date, goodbye." ”
Denkel walked to the elevator and told Sophia to stay and discuss the planning company and the factory with Morin, and the two watched the elevator close the door.
"Let's talk, in this separate place. Miss Sophia. Morin squinted at Sophia across the couch.
"Of course, Councillor Morin, for this reason, let's take this opportunity today to get to know each other well, and also for our better cooperation in the future, let's work first."
"Of course, it seems like a good start, I like to put work first, come on, let me hear your plans first." Maureen raised his glass.
"Okay." Sophia opened the folder in her hand, "We hope that Councillor Morin, you can be the main person in charge of this company, so the advantage is that you can use the funds more flexibly and use them to improve your prestige and enter the high society when necessary, and you can expand your network through business channels, all of which need to be based on strong funds, I will operate this laboratory as the top priority of the entire group, and for this reason, we will include you in the ranks of strategic partners, The first thing to do is to start in the lab. ”
Morin nodded, "Please continue." ”
"We can give you a registered company, the main business is in the field of bioengineering research, and the investment in the first phase is about 230 million US dollars, according to the current development direction and market demand of the group, the final investment will be more than 2 billion, will cover medical device technology and medical pharmaceutical research." Sophia watched Morin's reaction.
Although Morin has been in the political arena for a long time, he still can't help but gasp when he hears such a huge amount of money, and he has to pretend to be calm on the surface.
"But this batch of money is not directly transferred from our MartyDOM Group, we will be transferred to a third-party international private equity investment company through local banks in South Africa, St. Petersburg, Valencia and other places, and the third-party investors will directly inject capital into your company, and we will provide equipment, personnel, technology and management in the later stage, we will give you 1.7% of the shares, and the annualized rate of return is about 80-1.2 million, which may also be higher."
"Wow......" Mo Lin was completely stunned, he knew that he didn't have to do anything and he could get 1 million a year, which was an unprecedented good thing, he still suppressed his excitement and tried to maintain his demeanor and sanity, but his speech was trembling, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
"This is one of our programs, bioengineering is a new field for our group, mainly to solve human DNA defects and improve DNA strands of scientific experiments, mainly Mr. Morin Your state government is open to such research, so we choose you as our best partner.".
"To put it bluntly, it's human experiments." Maureen's attitude was very ambiguous.
"Congressman Morin, what you said is a bit of a refutation, DNA improvement and repair actually play a vital role in the continuation of human life, and can strangle genetic diseases before birth through repair and improvement, of course, in the field of biological sciences, later human trials are necessary, and the returns to the next generation of humans are also considerable, isn't it?" Sophia comforts Maureen and turns the cause into a great goal to save mankind, which makes Maureen feel moved after hearing this, and fantasizes that he is the image of the creator and savior of human life. "The risk is also very high-tech, if the operation is not good, it is possible that I will be sent directly to prison to read the newspaper." Morin knew that it didn't matter to him whether they experimented or not, he still valued money and status, but he didn't want Sophia to see his obvious intentions, he just knew where his back road was.
