Chapter 177: Exhortation
"You say you want a videotape of the municipal and shop on the entire street of Westman Avenue from 9 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. on Nov. 4?" Maureen repeated the lady's words.
"Of course, baby, this shouldn't bother you."
"Of course, you ......"
"Oh, come on, Maureen, my Councillor, let's take it easy, please call me Philina, don't make us strangers, we're old friends, aren't we?" Felina interrupted Morin.
"Yes, Miss Ferina, it's such a trivial matter that you need to do it yourself? Looks like a big deal. The sensitivity of a politician tells him that this is not easy.
Felina leaned forward, leaned forward with one arm, and said coldly: "Morin, you know what to ask and what not to ask, this is the rule. β
"Yes, I understand." Ferina's sudden change of face made the originally slightly relaxed atmosphere suddenly nervous, and Morin's head began to sweat again.
"Morin, this is also for your own good, after all, we want to protect our customers, including you, and you don't want your information to be naked in front of others, right?" On the surface, Felina is trying to appease Morin, but in fact she is beating Morin not to kill herself for curiosity.
"Yes, Miss Ferina, the ......" Morin said without saying a word, and Felina raised her eyebrows, waiting for Morin to continue, "Everything I have now is the result of your company's full support, and I ...... now." β
Felina raised her hand and interrupted Morin to continue, "Morin, this matter is nothing, what we value more is your value, we must maintain a win-win value between us, and now we have to see if you have more advantages to reflect your value, so as to ensure that we can invest better in the future." β
"Yes, don't worry, I will do my best, I will show my value." Morin nodded.
"Alright, let's get to work," Felina pushed through a black business card with her name and email address written in golden ink, "send me an email, I'm looking forward to hearing from you, but don't keep me waiting." Felina said as she changed back to her smiling face.
After saying that, Felina got up and walked to the door, Maureen quickly got up to see him off, came to the door to open the door for Felina, Felina twisted her beautiful buttocks and walked out, and winked at Morin's secretary Monica and smiled, Monica also got up and bowed to Ferina.
Morin returned to his desk and didn't dare to slack off, and picked up the phone: "Pick up the ...... of Director Khante of the police station."

In the evening, Thomas came to the bar on Westman Street, where he frequented, and saw the smoky space at night, Thomas came to the bench at the bar and sat down, raised his hand and asked the bartender for a glass of whiskey, and slowly drank it alone, looking at the temptation and madness that filled the bar, he suddenly felt bored, maybe he had consumed too much time here, but there was a sense of dependence, and he looked around hoping to find an unexpected encounter today.
Suddenly, I saw a young girl around the corner of the bar, who seemed to be coming with her sisters, and their eyes collided instantly, and they both noticed each other's existence, big eyes, dark eye shadow, flaming red lips, long blond shawl hair, short suspender skirts, fair skin, and hot figures.
That's her, this girl must have come to try her luck, God, my good luck is coming.
Thomas thought, smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand, the girl opposite him smiled heartily, Thomas saw the girl's reaction, he knew the result, he was also a veteran here, holding the wine glass and walking slowly towards the girl, and the girl's eyes were watching her from time to time, she didn't listen carefully to what her friend was discussing, but she still occasionally interjected a few words to hide her attention to other things.
Thomas walked over to the seat next to the girl and sat down, smiled and said, "Hey, beauty, how about I treat you to a drink?" β
"It's a great honor, handsome." Listening to the perfect woman, she hid her laughter with her hands, and the beauty did not hide her affection for Thomas.
Thomas asked for two glasses of whiskey and clinked glasses, both of whom looked at each other affectionately.
"I said beauty, how was it today?"
"Well~ It's not bad at the moment, it depends on how the end of the day is." And doesn't hide Thomas's ** for her.
In this way, time passed quickly, the two kissed me and I chatted very closely, Thomas saw that the time was ripe, and said to the beauty, "I know this place very well, it's too noisy here, how about we find a quiet place to have two more drinks?" β
"Of course, it's hot and hilarious." The beauty did not refuse Thomas's invitation at all.
Thomas took the beautiful woman by the hand and walked to a quiet place behind the bar, where there were a few small private rooms, which they called the "Passion Trail".
Thomas felt a little weird, and the sound of chirping in his head was not the movement of the music, but the whispering of others.
Thomas shook his head, feeling a bug in his ear, and the worm kept burrowing into his brain, and slowed down his passion, rubbing his temple with the palm of his hand, trying to hear what the whisper was saying.
Slowly stopped what he was doing, closed his eyes and focused all his attention there, and the whisper slowly became clearer, but it was still intermittent, and he could understand what was said, and the words became clearer and clearer.
β¦β¦
From her ......
of the mouth...... Spit...... Out of foolishness...... with emptiness;
Her tongue is full of deceitful language;
Her brazenness adds to the sharpness of her words;
peddling her flattery with evil lips;
all the playfulness, the playfulness, the teasing that fools you;
Her heart conspires against her, and she conceives of adultery;
Her reins are a fountain of filth;
Her hands were stained with the blood of crime;
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Look, God's faithful elect;
Can we not keep God's commandments?
Those who stand firm will not go to lewdness;
β¦β¦
She seduces the meek against God;
from the way of righteousness;
She puts indulgent desires into your heart;
to turn you astray from the way of uprightness;
to deceive you assyke;
Causing many people to slide into the mire.
Thomas listened to the mess coming out of his head, which made him feel so frustrated that he banged his head with the palm of his hand, and the beauty was surprised by Thomas's sudden reaction.
"Hey, you're alright, what's wrong with you?" The beauty asked with concern.
"I don't know what's going on, my brain hurts a little."
"You, you scared me, this isn't funny."
Thomas stepped back, retreated to the corner, and rubbed his head with two palms, "Damn." β
"You can't be epilepsy, I have a friend ......"
Before the beauty could finish speaking, Thomas raised a hand and interrupted the beauty to continue.
"Okay, okay, maybe you can stay by yourself first, and I'll come back later." The beautiful woman left the room with frightened eyes, and whispered to herself in annoyance, "Damn, I met a madman today." β
After waiting for the beauty to leave the room, Thomas stabilized his mood, inhaled and exhaled, gradually calmed down the voice in his head, left the room in frustration, turned around to find the beauty again, looked at the beauty and her female companion talking, looked at her body language The content of the conversation was obviously that he had met him as a madman, Thomas left the bar in frustration, pulled the collar and walked home.
There have been a lot of strange things lately, and I still have no clue, so if this continues, then I must try my luck at the psychiatrist according to Nils's advice.

Basardo came out of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, walked through the gloomy corridor, and stopped to look at the lake of fire not far away, because his own Lucifer's attitude towards him just now made him lose face, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and his two hands slammed the terrace of the hall, and the irrepressible emotion made him roar at the fiery sky.
The roar did not calm Basaldo's anger, his eyes were wide open, his anger was low, and his head was full of fantasies about all sorts of things, fantasies that were impossible to achieve, and they laughed at him like a clown.
There was a soft hey sound not far away, and Basaldo turned his head sharply and yelled, "Who is there, don't hide like a coward." β
Slowly emerge from the dark shadow of the pillar.
"Hey, Basaldo, anger and irrational catharsis won't solve the problem." It was none other than Belier, who was the sovereign.
Basaldo saw that Beryl, who was the monarch, and did not salute, "Belier? What are you doing here, to laugh at me? Hmph, I'm telling you, I don't care about the attitude of you old guys, sooner or later you'll have to step aside. β
"Hehe, Basaldo, you can only bring you more harm like this, you should learn to respect, you should listen to the teachings of our old guys, it is good for you, and it is good for you to stay away from this." Belier didn't care about Basaldo's rudeness to him.
"You also think I don't have the ability? Do you think I'm just a little baby spoiled by my parents? Come on, put away your clichΓ© teachings. Beryl's words made him even more annoyed.
"No, I don't mean that, I mean it's the right way to learn to have fun in time, why bother doing all that dirty and tiring work."
"Hmph, my greatest pleasure is to kill, and what I need now is a chance." Basaldo said firmly.
"It looks like Lucifer and Samael can't trust you at all, you're still too young and naΓ―ve." Bellier turned away with his hands behind his back.
"I believe I did a better job than he did, and as Leviathan said, he was too docile to be worthy of the title of king." Basardo said confidently.
"I know Lucifer," Berlier turned around and pointed at Basardo to look left and right, and said in a low voice: "You'd better keep your mouth shut, I know Lucifer better than he is a man and his methods, he can be the master of this place is not a speech and a little trick to get his current position, this is not a campaign for president." β
"It's a fact, you're not blind, you see, now we're in this dreary cage, human beings are overconsumed, conceited, arrogant, selfish, greedy, they should be punished as they deserve, we need another purge, even God doesn't want to help them anymore, we should let them taste the consequences of humanity themselves."
"I've been with Lucifer for a long time, I know him, we've all been through glory and downfall, and the blow he gave you in the council is precisely the encouragement you have, and what you should do will make him look the other way, believe me."
"Of course, I have the ability to do it, but I don't need this kind of encouragement because of the lack of an opportunity."
"Opportunity? Hehe, if you want to prove yourself, I can give you a chance. Beryl smiled.
"Huh? Why are you helping me? You're not going to be so kind, are you, tell me, what kind of benefit are you going to get from it? I'll figure it out myself. Basaldo said excitedly.
"Well......," Belier felt embarrassed, "but you can't go through the gates of hell, let alone go to the world in a grand way." β
"What's your suggestion?" Basardo was poured a basin of cold water, and he admitted that Belier was telling the truth, that he did not have the ability to get out of hell, and that he needed a passage from hell to earth.
"It's not that there is no way, it's just ...... I think it's fair that I will get something in return for what you pay. β
"Tell me your plan."
"Then I'll tell you what I want in return," Belier paused, "How about my return being a pair of angel's wings?" β
"Hmph, hmph" Basardo sneered, "My friend, this is the purpose of my trip, there is no doubt about this, I will meet your request, so what is my price?" β
"Very well", Beryl was glad that Basaldo could so happily agree, and then took out a necklace from his sleeve, a ruby necklace, "Concentrate all of yours in a necklace, give this necklace to the right woman, and you need to be conceived by the human maternal body, if you are killed or expelled from the host body before giving birth, then your power will return to this necklace, if this necklace is purified or lost, your body will be trapped in this place forever, This matter is very dangerous, and it depends on your decision whether you choose to go to the world to do a great career. β
Berlier looked at Basardo with some hesitation, and he continued: "High reward means high risk, there is no free lunch in the world, you have to think clearly, are your ambitions and still so strong?" If not, you can go back to your comfort zone and sleep. β
Basaldo was provoked by Beryl, weighed the relationship between gains and losses, and finally readily agreed to Beryl's proposal.
"Very wise, there are both benefits and risks, this is a good deal for you, you will make your parents and everyone look at you differently, you will be the rising star of hell, for our rising star, I have to go and prepare, wait for my good news. Hey, hey, hey......" Berlier happily complimented Basaldo's courage.
Basaldo turned to leave, and Berlier watched Basaldo's back behind him and made a good deal.

"I don't understand what you mean, you're not surprised, it looks like you're prepared?" Lucifer asked Death with a blank face.
"No, our only preparation is to wait for the day when the apocalypse begins." Death leaned into the seat.
"Then do you condone an angel to break the rules of thousands of years and be indifferent?" Lucifer presses on the Death Knight.
"Hehehehe", Death let out an eerie sneer, "Lucifer, you are the lord of hell, not the lord of the world, and the application of the rules is not up to you, and you are also a puppet in the rules." β
"You mean to say that all of this was arranged by fate, including the conversation I have with you now?"
Death fell silent and stared at Lucifer and said unhurriedly, "Yes." β
"Where the hell is that 'fate'?"
"Everywhere."
"That angel saved the man who was already deserving of death, but he was robbed of the sands of time that should belong to your management, and the time of that human being in the world was imprisoned, so that the 'time' of life no longer applies to that human being, he will have infinite possibilities, is this also the arrangement of fate?"
"Lucifer, as I said, do you think what you see is the truth of 'fate'? Even if the infinite possibilities you say are the arrangement of 'fate', fate is the process of correcting so man. The Death Knight played another dumb riddle.
"Death Knight, what the hell do you want to say?" Lucifer was thoroughly enraged.
"The death of a human being is only the end of life, but it is not the end of the whole journey. I will say so much, don't explore the relationship between time and fate itself, we are all dust in the face of fate, it will tear apart everything in your past, this is my warning to you. β
"Well, since I can't touch fate, but the human who has no time will be my first dish, I will pull his soul out of that body, tear his body apart, and lick his soul, but don't let me not warn you, then you will have no right to interfere with me, and don't ask me for the 'Sands of Time' that thing belongs to me."
"In some cases, it'......s not up to you to decide whether to die or not," the Death Knight paused, "If it's fate, we don't interfere, Lucifer. β
"If it is fate, we will never interfere." The other three knights repeated in unison.
"You've got the promise you wanted, goodbye." After saying that, the Death Knight waved his hand lightly.
"What counts as a certain case? ......" Before Lucifer could finish asking, the hall disappeared in front of Lucifer like wind and sand. And Lucifer stood in the lobby of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, and Lucifer returned to the throne, because the words of the knights made him fall into deep thought, and his mind kept echoing.
In some cases, it's not for me to decide whether to die or not, so who decides?
Thomas staggered back home, took out the last and only bottle of beer in the house from the refrigerator, sat on the messy sofa, leaned his head on the sofa and looked at the ceiling, what happened just now made him contain all kinds of meanings, surprised, panicked, confused, nervous and other emotional influences, made him feel very tired, Thomas drank while thinking nonsense, and drank until the last drop was left, poured down and looked like the bottle was really empty, so he didn't come up with a reason, he sighed and fell crookedly on the sofa, As soon as he let go of the beer bottle and poured it on the floor, he let the beer bottle roll on the wooden floor, and Thomas listened to the beer bottle "cluck" on the floor...... Giggles...... The sound of "clucking" rolled, the eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally they were really hard to open, and the sound of the wine bottle rolling on the floor did not disappear, but became louder and louder on the empty floor, as if it was rolling endlessly.
"Thomas, Thomas ......", in the haze he heard someone calling to himself.
"Wake up, Thomas. Barrico ......, "Wake up, Thomas ......", his voice became clearer and clearer, and he felt like he had just fallen asleep.
"Thomas. Barrico ......", Thomas wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids were too heavy, but the voice kept calling him, he tried to open his eyes, he felt that his eyes were very astringent, and finally opened them, and vaguely saw that the sky was very blue, and there was a figure standing in front of him, Thomas blinked slowly, so that his eyes could better adapt to the light around him, and gradually the scene in front of him was much clearer, the blue sky, and there was a handsome young man in a blue robe standing in front of him, Thomas took a deep breath and opened his eyes wide.
The sky, I was in the sky, all around me were the spires of the building, Thomas was suddenly nervous when he saw the scene in front of him, I was really in the sky, and it was the highest top of the highest city, I was not flying, I felt it under my feet, looked down, and made him even more shocked, he was standing on a building under construction, surrounded by steel structures, on steel beams between the spans.
The roof of the building is not very accurate, it should be connected between the two buildings on a "work" steel, looking at the busy vehicles downstairs and pedestrians as small as ants, hurriedly shuttling through the streets, but also can hear the crazy horn of the anxious driver, the low houses in the distance and the steam rising, the visual gap makes Thomas's legs weak, slowly stretch out his hands to maintain balance, slowly squatting down, for fear of accidentally falling, before squatting completely, he kept panting, and hurriedly grabbed both sides of the steel bar with both hands, With the fixation of his hand, Thomas's heart relaxed a little, which did not bring him much comfort, and he warned himself that he must not let his guard down.
Damn,There must be no bones left when you fall.,Before it landed.,I guess I'll be scared to death in mid-air.,I can guarantee that I haven't experienced this.γγ
Looking at the young man in front of him standing calmly on the steel bar, unwavering, he was surprised, what a great balance, so natural, is he an acrobat?
On second thought, no, I was obviously at home just now, why did I suddenly go to this hellish place with a young man I don't know, what did I miss? Or was I kidnapped? What the hell is he trying to do? All of a sudden, his mind was full of questions, and he had too many questions.
