Chapter 745 Sign a Contract with Me!
Why help Strange leave Kamateki? The reason is simple, because dealing with Strange is actually helping Li Jie solve his own problems.
Kamateki's head manager, Wang, has let go. He wants to suggest that Lan return to Kamateki to continue his studies, so as to keep Lan away from New York, especially Li Jie.
This is not good news for Li Jie, he needs to find an excuse for Lan to stay. Preferably a good excuse that you can't refuse. At this moment, the appearance of Strange gave Li Jie a flash of inspiration.
Strange was talented, and Gu Yi saw that he had the ability to become an excellent mage. Both he and Doom have the opportunity to have the potential to inherit the ancient one's mantle and become the supreme mage. This makes Strange still very important.
Not enough Doom obviously regards Strange as a competitor, and he is determined to win the position of Supreme Mage. There's actually a lot of paranoia in Doom's character. It's like playing chess, you must win, otherwise he won't allow the opponent to leave.
To participate in the sports meeting, you must win the gold medal, and if you win the silver medal, you will fail. So for the position of supreme mage, it's not that Dum must want it too much, but that he must not lose. That's all.
So Strange became his competitor, and Dum would never show mercy to competitors. Naturally, methods such as crowding out and suppressing bullying have been used. And it was used very cleverly, at least Wang didn't see it. On the contrary, I feel that proper friction can increase the relationship between brothers and sisters.
Of course, as a victim, Strange certainly didn't think so. If possible, he would have liked to be as far away from Doom as possible.
Just like now, he and Li Jie stood in front of Master Ancient One and expressed his attitude: "Dear Master Ancient One, it is not because I want to escape from the practice of learning magic. In fact, I am very, very familiar with magic. Obsession. I love this occult stuff, it's real. But I don't think I can stay here forever."
Standing beside Li Jie, Strange said with a righteous face: "Actually, when this nightcrawler and his companions brought me here, I was doing Doctors Without Borders activities. I am a I am an excellent doctor, and my volunteering is to help people around the world get rid of their pain. I have done so for many years." Strange said it with sincerity, as if it was true.
Gu Yi sat on the table and listened to Strange's speech, with a noncommittal expression on his face.
Strange continued: "For me, practicing as a magician is a wonderful experience. It has sublimated and delighted my life. But every time the night is quiet, I will think. I can live here living a happy life, but what about the patients who are suffering from illnesses?"
"I'm not boasting, because I'm not disrespecting other doctors. There are many operations in this world, especially neurosurgery, which only I can perform." Strange said this with confidence.
"Whenever I think about these things, my heart is tormented. I should stand in front of the operating table and hold a lancet to treat patients and save people. I should not let those tortured innocent patients die in suffering because of my personal preference. This is unfair to them, the medical skills I have practiced so hard for so many years cannot be wasted like this! They still need to be used!"
Strange's long speech was full of emotion, and Li Jie couldn't help applauding him inwardly.
Li Jie's inner OS: Strange is simply a born actor. Whether it is a mean businessman, a studious student, or a compassionate doctor, he has no flaws in his performance. Li Jie almost surrendered.
I just colluded with him on the lines for a while, I didn't expect Strange's performance to be so perfect, and I couldn't find any flaws.
The Ancient One calmly listened to Strange's speech, and then said: "So, Strange, what do you want to express? Quit Kamateki and continue to be your doctor?"
Strange took a step forward and replied: "I want to continue to complete my practice on the magic journey. I may be able to learn part of it by myself, although the progress will be a bit slow. Then I can also come to Kamateki through the New York Temple on weekends. It’s like a work-study community college, or college for adults.”
"In this way, I can take care of my obligations as a doctor and learn magic. In this way, I won't delay both sides." Strange said this plan. If that's the case, it's clear he's going to be very tired the rest of the day.
But it doesn't matter if you are a little tired, it's better than staying with Dum!
Master Gu Yi also realized this and said: "But your study and work intensity is too high, maybe you will get twice the result with half the effort."
But at this moment Li Jie stepped forward and interjected, "Actually, there is another good method, Master Ancient One."
Gu Yi glanced at Li Jie and asked a little playfully: "What method?"
"Lan is living where I am right now, isn't he? I think there should be no problem teaching Strange at Lan's level. At least his current level is not so high that you have to teach him personally. I heard that even the king It's not to guide him all the time. He still has a lot to learn, and I think Lan should be able to help Strange solve most of his questions." Li Jie carefully proposed his own solution, and he looked at Gu Yi mage. Well, I can't see the expression of the mage.
After a while, Master Gu Yi said, "Sounds good?" Li Jie always felt that there seemed to be some meaning in what Master Gu Yi said.
"Actually, I also know Strange. You don't seem to get along very well with Doom?" The ancient mage stood up and paced: "This is normal, Doom is more ambitious and aggressive. Although you also Very motivated, but lacks his viciousness. From a certain point of view, this is an advantage, but from another point of view, it may be a disadvantage. So I have been thinking about this, how to let you learn well."
"I've thought about sending you to the New York Temple's mage to teach first, or letting you go to Hong Kong. Of course, I also thought about letting Lan teach you. These three methods are all good, but now since the two of you It has been discussed and the last method has been proposed, so do it according to your ideas."
Master Gu Yi said with a smile on his face: "Actually, since Nightcrawler made this good suggestion, then I don't think I need to persuade the king. I don't need to listen to him talking in my ear all day long that I should take Lan back. "
Gu Yi shook his head: "Children should be allowed to fly when they grow up, instead of being trapped in a cage, right? You prepared a good excuse for me." When Gu Yi said this, his eyes looked at Li Jie.
This plan was obviously proposed by myself, but why did I seem to be fooled by it inexplicably? Is this the legendary "waiting for rabbits"?
Li Jie opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. Until the last time he left, Master Gu Yi's advice came from his ears: "Next time you come to Kamateki, remember to stay away from Wang Yuan. He can casually summon hundreds of close mages , you can't win!"
Li Jie staggered and almost fell to the ground, my God! Is Master Ancient One planning to push everything on his own head? Li Jie looked around, it's good that Wang is not here yet.
He pulled Strange to run fast, and said while running: "You need to sign a contract with me later!"
"What? Is it a rental contract?" Strange asked following Li Jie's steps.
"No! It's a contract made with your soul. You need to keep everything you see and hear a secret, otherwise your soul will be burned to death." Li Jie Answered quickly.
"What! What terrible thing are you taking me to do?" Strange stood still and did not run away with Li Jie. He felt as if he had been duped. It was the same as when Li Jie faced Gu Yi just now.
Li Jie stopped to look at Strange and said seriously: "Actually, this contract is signed for your health."
"Huh?!" Strange became more and more confused: "What and what? Can you explain clearly what you want to do? I can't just buy my soul to the devil!"
Li Jie waved his hand: "It's not that serious. It's just a relatively strict confidentiality agreement. You can't reveal my real identity, keep it secret. And everything you see needs to be kept secret."
Strange asked, "That's it?"
Li Jie nodded: "Yes, that's it. Oh~! There is one more thing, I will introduce you to your new roommate later. So hurry up and sign a contract with me, Strange!"
