"Confident, huh?" Catherine said that she lifted one leg and put it on her other leg, a gesture that conquered almost all men and a few women for her when it was done by a female actor half a century ago, and Catherine was not far behind, thanks to the unique physiology of the Stranger, compared with more than ten years ago, she left almost no trace of aging on her body, her muscles and skin were still tight, her lips were full, her eyes were bright, and Bao'er, who only came of age in September this year. Douglas walked together without feeling that anything was wrong.

Chiz stared at her, watching as she pulled out a pack of cigarettes from the back pocket of her jeans, which looked like a second skin, and a tiny lighter in the shape of a cigarette.

Catherine lit a cigarette without asking Chizz's permission, and took a sharp puff, and the next moment Chizzy smelled a smell of smoke mixed with rich, chocolate and sweet cream, and she couldn't help but turn her head and cough twice.

The older woman smiled a wicked smile, "That's not going to work, dear," her smile widened, "You've been swearing to deal with the heir of a mob leader and a ghoul who is used to putting your own kind on the menu - but you're afraid of a cigarette." ”

"Don't confuse fear with disgust," said Chitz, "and I don't want to deal with those two men." ”

"Oh, what shall I say?" Catherine feigned surprise as white smoke swirled around her face: "It's amazing, besides that inexplicable confidence—you seem to have a lot more to like, like self-knowledge?" She exhaled a round, very standard smoke ring. The remaining small part of the smoke was pressed under her tongue, and little by little leaked out as her tongue and lips vibrate: "Beelzebub. Bissandi and Sasha. Hopkins spent twelve whole years together, little girl, and they lived on a closed island, although there was an Internet. But it's clear that neither Hopkins nor Bisandi are idiots who would seek emotional solace in the virtual world — they eat together, play together, read books together, train together — certainly not football training or swimming, neither of them have a mother. There is only one powerful father who loves them very much and deserves their respect and fear, and they are naturally strong over others, whether they are ordinary people or supernatural beings...... They also sleep together a lot of the time, in the same bed — no, you know I didn't mean that. But you have to understand that this means that Beelzebub is defenseless against Sasha, and Sasha is against Beelzebub - when they grow up, they have to go to work, so it becomes natural and normal to feel comfortable giving their backs to each other - like this, my dear, what do you want to do? You're only slightly more than one of your classmates. You love Sasha, but he doesn't love you," Catherine gestured cruelly and bluntly. The cigarette was between her middle and forefingers: "He doesn't even like you, he is wary of you, he is distant and indifferent to you, because your father is Beelzebub. You are the enemy of his closest brother and friend. Understand, enemy? You were on the opposite side of him from the beginning. You want to get closer, but he sees it as a threat. ”

"Ahh Yes," continued Catherine, in that abominable tone of indifference, "you can go and say that you have no feelings for your biological father, that you don't care who made a hole in his head and knocked half of his skull off, and that you love Beelzebub's, that murderer, and that you cook your specialty for him, and buy him birthday presents, and kiss him—you can't, Carson, and I can see that you're not a bad girl with no conscience, and Sasha knows, as you say, Sasha. Hopkins is the right-hand man of the future Don, do you think he will marry a woman who has a deep hatred for his brother and could take his life at any moment?

He won't, you know very well, most likely, he will marry a girl from Poseidon Island, Beelzebub said, preferably his wife's sisters, so that they will be brothers-in-law. And before that, all of Hopkins's female companions were one-off or non-permanent, and Sasha himself knew that except for Lila, who you and I both knew, there were no girls around him, because he knew that there would be no results, so he simply saved the flowers - a good boy, didn't he? ”

"He was kind and gentle." Chiz said quietly, "With a sense of justice. ”

Catherine laughed silently, "There will be many people who will get up from their graves crying—and because of this evaluation, although the 'blonde judge' never kills, his punishment is more terrible than death, and those who pass by him commit suicide, if not mad." ”

"But he didn't like that," Chitz retorted, "and he'd rather be a good guy," like in an elevator, he could have let Dr. Smith and Lore fall, not to mention that the surveillance equipment was completely out of order by then, and even if it hadn't, no one would blame a man who would have failed to hold two adults who were nearly three hundred pounds tall and had only three or four fingers to support the full weight himself. "He's been kidnapped all along," Chiz muttered, "by his father, by his friends, by his heart and feelings." ”

She was not wrong about this, and Catherine lowered her eyes: "All right," she said, "and what are you going to do with Beelzebub. What about Bisandi? I mean, his influence on Sasha? On the premise that Sasha won't allow you to approach at all. Tell me about it? Then we can move on to Anthony. Hopkins. The last name she was blowing out of her teeth almost lightly.

Chiz. Carson turned his head and stared at the woman shrouded in smoke, and after a moment, she smiled slowly, "We're one country, right?" ”

"Very early," said Catherine, "I will hear your way, and I do not like Beelzebub and Antony. Hopkins, but at least they haven't hurt and betrayed Sasha with their own hands. Hopkins. ”

She was not surprised to see Chiz. Carson winced.

"So, if all you have is those stinky so-called 'acquired variations' in your hole cards, then you don't have to say anything...... From the next second, you'd better stay away from my child – remember the pain just now? It was given to me by a pregnant woman who had been forced by a madman to do a dilation and curettage without anesthesia, for twenty minutes, and you felt it for only five seconds, and without reinforcement - but I could let this pain go on endlessly if I wanted to. She put her finger on Chiz's bare neck, and Chizz shivered, and Catherine's fingernails were smooth and flat, and her fingertips were soft, but Chiz felt like a vampire bat covered in fluff on her neck.

Catherine's fingers were a little hotter than the average person, and she carelessly stroked Chiz's neck: "Don't wonder how I would know, the Adepts have a circle of Adepts, we exchange information with each other, and the 'acquired Adepts' created by Samael are not news for a long time, maybe you haven't paid attention to the eel tragedy, this is a kidnapping and murder case that happened in an eel farm, not only killed several adults, but also an innocent little girl, only five or six years old, was dismembered and fed to the eel, It was also live-streamed, with about 200 million people watching the video — that was more than a decade ago, and the culprit in this case was an acquired paranormal, a woman who could turn into a man. ”

The 'organization' I serve is full of supernatural people, and we are basically responsible for cases committed by supernatural people, and in the past ten years, the cases of acquired supernatural people have accounted for a quarter of all cases.

What did they say to you? Give you health, and then give you ability, and a long youth and life? Can you qualify to stand shoulder to shoulder with the people you like? And what do you want to do with this power? Roughly strip Beelzebub and Antony from Sasha's memories and hearts, and then cut them off? Catherine pressed the extinguishing cigarette directly into her palm: "If I didn't pull you out, are you going to do it?" Or do you want to leave something in Sasha's subconscious? ”

"Anthony. Hopkins will tear you to shreds," Catherine leaned down, her breath hitting Chiz's face, her iris a grim steel-blue, "I will too." ”
