Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Chapter 2823 Distrust

"Henry."

"Xerath, Morrison, why are you here?"

"Henry, Mr. West asked us to come. He heard that you bought a new house and asked me to ask if you plan to rent out your previous house."

"Mr. West wants to rent my house?"

"That's right. It's Miss Ye He who just came here today. She's looking for a house now. We told Mr. West about your situation, and he asked us to help him ask."

"If it's someone from within the company, and it's Mr. West who speaks, then the house can be temporarily lent to Miss Ye He." Henry said, looking at his mother beside him: "Mom, is that okay?"

"Of course, is that Mr. West your boss?"

"No, it's our vice president." Henry said.

When they communicate outside, they refer to the Supernatural Association as a company.

Chen Zhao is the boss and West is the vice president.

"Even if the house is put on the market, it won't cost much to rent. Of course there is no problem in lending it to Mr. West, as long as it doesn't burn down my house."

After Xerath and Morrison finished talking, they left.

Henry's mother saw that the cars the two of them drove were not junk cars, they seemed to be good cars.

He also dresses well and speaks in an orderly manner.

"Henry, are Xerath and Morrison also your colleagues?"

"They are under my control now." Henry said proudly.

"Are you still their superior?"

"I am managing a department now, and there are several people in my department that you all know."

"Why does your boss take you all in?"

"It's a coincidence that one time a dozen brothers and I went to the boss's property to cause trouble, and then the boss punished us and asked us to compensate. We couldn't afford the compensation, so in the end the boss asked us to stay and work. Until the money was paid off, but then the boss needed someone familiar, so we recommended ourselves. The boss saw that we were obedient at that time, so he agreed to give us a chance, and that’s how I became who I am now.”

"I think your boss wants you to compensate him because he is actually trying to help you change your ways. Your boss is really a good person."

"haha, yes."

Mom, if you knew what he had done, I think you would swallow these words back.

When Xiao He came into contact with West, it could be said that he was frightened.

She has been secretly accumulating strength, and if she disagrees, she is ready to take action at any time.

But the result was not what she thought.

West didn't know about it at all, or didn't even mention the thing in her hand.

He just arranged for her to stay and asked someone to help her find a house on the same day.

"Mr. Chen." Xiao He dialed Chen Zhao's phone number.

"What's up?"

"Are you the president of the Supernatural Association?"

"Any questions?"

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"Uh..." Xiao He didn't know how to pick up the topic: "You already knew my identity?"

"No, I only found out after I sent you abroad. Originally, I just accepted Wang He's commission, nothing more, so you don't have to think about anything else. Saving you is purely a favor transaction."

When Chen Zhao said this, Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief.

"In any case, thank you, Mr. Chen."

Xiaohe was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time.

Chen Zhao was the first to break the silence.

"Mr. Chen, I have something..."

"No matter what you have in your hand, you don't need to tell me, and you don't need to take it out to save your life. Neither I nor West are interested in it. Our purpose has never been something in your hand. If you have If it’s dangerous, you can seek shelter at the headquarters of the Supernatural Association. Did West give you the address?”

"have."

"Okay, that's it." Chen Zhao hung up the phone.

Xiaohe's mood was complicated. In fact, she was testing Chen Zhao just now.

After all, it was over the phone, if Chen Zhao showed any desire for that thing.

Then she would simply choose to disappear completely so that Chen Zhao could never find her.

She does not have absolute trust in Chen Zhao or even the Supernatural Association.

In fact, Chen Zhao and West had already guessed that Xiao He might have a treasure from the Shen Lian Sect in his hands.

Otherwise, the traitors from the Lian Shen Sect would go all the way abroad to hunt her down.

Both felt this was highly unlikely.

Unless there is a deep hatred between them.

But Xiaohe definitely doesn't have any deep grudge against them.

Given Xiao He's age, her biggest hatred might be someone's head she broke when she was a child.

Therefore, unless there are enough benefits, the other party cannot pursue Xiao He all the way.

However, neither Chen Zhao nor West really had any interest in what Xiao He was holding.

This is like a billionaire, would he like a commoner who won the lottery?

Chen Zhao still has the disk and spear given by Lao Zhang.

Chen Zhao still doesn't understand what these two things are used for.

But vaguely, Chen Zhao always felt that these two things had extraordinary origins.

Maybe it's some ancient artifact or something.

So when Chen Zhao was at home, he would take it out and study it every now and then.

See if there is any way to activate it, or directly recognize the owner or something like that.

However, Chen Zhao tried almost every method by dripping blood, delivering immortal power, or roasting with water and fire.

But the disk and the spear never responded.

More radical approaches are currently not useful.

These two things don't look very useful.

Chen Zhao was afraid that if he used too much force, he would destroy these two props.

As for Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang still refused to speak directly, so he asked Chen Zhao to study it himself.

But Chen Zhao is not very good at research. Most of the things he knows are based on his own imagination, and a small number of them are based on the methods of popular fantasy novels.

"Dear, what do these two things look like to you?" Chen Zhao decided to change his approach.

Perhaps Fali, as an outsider, could give him a different answer.

"Spear and shield, am I right?"

Chen Zhao was a little disappointed and shrugged: "I don't know, it was given by Lao Zhang. I don't know the specific purpose. I just said it was my reward when I returned to China last time."

Fali stepped forward and picked up the disk: "What material is this? It's much lighter than expected. It doesn't look like stone or metal. It feels really strange to the touch."

Fali turned over the disk. There were some lines on the back of the disk: "The lines on this are not Taoist lines. They are more like oracle bone inscriptions, or traces left by similar civilizations. Maybe you can ask about archeology." ”

Chen Zhao thought of Faroui Lessende, but with the attitude he had towards him last time, it was still a question of whether he was willing to help him solve his doubts.
