Chapter 219: The Atavistic Phenomenon

CPT Inc., 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 that? 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 more and more developed now. In the future, it will definitely be the era when machines will replace human labor. Brigitte said rightly.

After she saw Alex's expression, she explained with a smile: "Ha Luha, I've read several science fiction novels in a row in the past few days, such as the three laws of robots 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.

The woman named Christian was no more than twenty-seven years old. However, he is the financial director of CPT Records, and he has huge rights, and the transfer of funds below one million dollars can be handled by himself without Alex's approval.

A million dollars may not seem like much. But so far. There are also few businesses 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 manipulation, his ability to consult other people's memories. Naturally, he knows who is loyal and who is treacherous, and if he finds a guy with the slightest bad intentions, Alex will not hesitate to slowly transfer him from his original position, and then exclude him from the core layer.

All the accounts are handled by this Christian alone.

Everything in 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, and his immediate boss came to the company and entered Alex's office.

After a few rounds of deliberation, Christian left his office and knocked on Alex's office door with a stack of financial reports.

"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 couch.

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 can put it on the table, I'll take the time to take a look!"

In fact, there is no need to look at it at all, Alex only needs to find a chance to touch the other party, 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, it's because Chuck said don't alarm too many people, so only a few people know about it. I also heard from others that I learned about it, and he didn't seem to want this matter to get out of the way. ”

"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?" Is there something you haven't told 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 remembers the witchcraft information that little Richard told him, 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 in the Dao, Alex's perspective on this world is completely different.

It turns out that he has always looked at the world from the perspective of ordinary people. But in the process of contact with Hughes, Rockefeller and others. It is discovered that beneath the surface of the world is buried many secrets that no one knows. These secrets seem a little absurd, but Alex has experienced even the most absurd things.

His rebirth is incredible, and since such things can happen, it is not impossible for vampires and werewolves to appear.

I didn't know the Dao before, but it was because I hadn't reached this level yet, and when Alex climbed to this position, he came into contact with more and more truths in 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 normal.

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 all that is said. He turned to Christian again and said, "Don't talk about it all over the place. This affects the company as well as other rumors. If it has a negative effect, it will be very troublesome! ”

Christian nodded and agreed, "Good." I get it! I've only mentioned it to you! ”

"Well, that's good! You're going to be out of the woods! ”

After Alex kicked her out, he thought about it and picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Hey? I'm Alex! Get a few people out there, I have a friend in New York who needs your protection! ”

After putting down the phone, he explained to Brigitte, "I'll send some bodyguards, if you want to go out of the city, remember to take them with you!" This is New York, not Paris, be safe outside! ”

Brigitte nodded, indicating that she understood, and she proposed, "Why don't I go to the hospital with you, I want to walk around too!" ”

"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, and they both hung their heads, and Chuck finally said, "Boss, I'm afraid neither of us can act in this movie!" ”

"Oh? What's wrong? ”

Alex was a little surprised, he didn't notice 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 yelling to make movies, and now he has such a good opportunity, and he actually refused to do so?

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 this 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 talking, 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, but using this secret technique has increased the strength, speed, and recovery 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. (To be continued......)
