Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 58 In the Name of Money
When this story was first told, it was about something that happened in Michigan, which should be far away from Florida. So how did it end up here?
There's no time to think more.

A large number of footsteps were heard.

Some townspeople from other directions gathered and rushed over.

The reason why it was so late was that there were not many people in the town, and the people in this room were a small group. Their houses were nearby and they were neighbors, while the other townspeople were relatively far away.

Looking at the house engulfed in flames, the crowd was filled with shock.

"Oh, God!"

They also noticed Louis standing on the side of the road, but before they could ask, a shout rang out.

"Louis! Louis!"

David ran over breathlessly not far away. There was no way, people who didn't exercise for years really couldn't run.

Seeing that Louis was safe and sound, David breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at the other townspeople with a vigilant look.

On the way here, he met Angela and a strange woman. After a brief explanation, he roughly understood the situation. Now in his eyes, none of these townspeople could be trusted.

"I've already called the police, you'd better not act rashly!"

David shouted a warning.

"Hey man, we should be the ones asking you this, you outsider. Your child was at the scene of the crime."

"What are you asking? I just came here to look for someone. As for Louis."

"He's still a child. You wouldn't be so outrageous as to doubt him, right?" David's words "he's still a child" immediately choked everyone.

David didn't tell anyone about Angela and the others, because if he did, who knows what these people would do. The most important thing to do now was to calm them down and wait for the police to arrive.

"This……"

Everyone looked at each other, the other party was right.

"Okay, since this gentleman has called the police, let's put out the fire first and then investigate the truth after the police arrive."

A group of people quickly started to put out the fire. Because this place was a bit remote, they actually prepared some basic fire-fighting tools just in case.

Fire extinguishers exploded in the flames, and streams of water gushed out from small pipes...

But the flames showed no sign of fading.

Moreover, the fire was spreading abnormally fast. At this scale, it was difficult for the people inside to escape.

Louis, who had just finished a phone call, looked at the scene with a smile. He was joking. The flames created by the fire magic were somewhat different. They were flammable and difficult to extinguish. Did he want to put them out with just this little water?
Then my practice of magic has been in vain?
Someone nearby saw Louis laughing and became even more upset, "Hey kid, what are you laughing at? Do you think this is something very happy?"

Louis glanced over.

"none of your business."

"you!"

Just as he was about to teach this arrogant boy a lesson, he saw David wiping the pistol in his hand. He looked at him puzzledly, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me?"

Take a deep breath.

"It's okay."

Wait until the police arrive.

The fire was almost out, and everyone was staring at the charred and dilapidated house, with the continuous cries for help still ringing in their ears.

"It's such a tragedy."

After a brief investigation, they found that there was no one alive inside, and the sheriff looked sad because they had died in a very tragic way.

"No, Mr. Sheriff, this is just a ridiculous internal conflict."

David, who had already learned part of the truth from Louis, stood up and spoke, successfully getting the angry gazes of the townspeople.

"Oh? It seems you have something to say?"

"In fact, I don't need to say much, you will know it soon, Sheriff."

Not long after, the police officer came running over to report that they had found the female corpse and the golden arm inside, which immediately made the sheriff smell something different.

At the same time, Louis observed the changes in the expressions of the people around him, because he suspected that the appearance of this golden arm might have something to do with the locals.

really.

He noticed that the mayor, who was leading the group, had an unnatural expression on his face, and several men behind him had wandering eyes and were quietly retreating.

……

What happened next was simple. After Louis made the call, a lawyer arrived quickly and the sheriff was unable to detain him.

Even though there were many doubts about this fire that killed nearly 20 people, it was ultimately determined to be an accident caused by an internal conflict over the uneven distribution of spoils.

Although the townspeople were dissatisfied with this, no one cared whether they accepted it or not. The case was settled. From reporting the case, investigation to case closure, everything was done incredibly quickly.

This was naturally the work of the Kano family behind the scenes.

It has to be said that in modern society, power and money are really not as useful as magic until it reaches a certain level of strength.

In the name of money, there is nothing that cannot be done in America. If there is, it only means that you don’t have enough money!
"Little Louis, don't be impulsive, especially when it comes to your own safety. You can just make a phone call. There's no need to do it yourself. Doing so will only increase your risk."

"As for those townspeople, don't worry about them. I will take care of them."

This is what my uncle Max on the other end of the phone taught me.

Louis didn't care and told Max some requests. Max didn't ask what they were for, but just agreed.

hang up the phone.

Louis looked at Olivier, who had just been found in the lake, his wounds infected and he was not sure if he could survive, and Steve, who had been found in a grave and was already a little mentally ill.

The two women cried bitterly at their miserable condition.

They didn't understand why they would encounter such a thing just by going out.

Civilization and barbarism actually coexist.

He shook his head and ignored them. He had no medical treatment options and was powerless, so he could only trust in modern medicine.

Maybe this is fate. At least they survived and didn't all die like in the original movie. It's already pretty good.

Soon, the two women accompanied their men to the ambulance and headed to the hospital, while David and Louis drove back to the city.

It was silent along the way.

David had a lot of questions to ask, such as the unusual fire, the strange golden arm, and the female corpse...

After wanting to speak several times, David chose to remain silent.

He believed in Louis.

Besides, even if Louis did it, it was to avenge poor Angela.

What else can I say?

but……

"Louis, do you think that if I believe in the Kitchen God, I can protect myself from those abnormal harassment?"

"Also, with so many people dead, is it true that they won't become evil spirits?"

Louis smiled. David didn't let him down. "It's useless to believe in anything else, but believing in the Kitchen God next door is useful. Just remember to bring the Kitchen God's amulet with you."

"As for whether it will become an evil spirit... I don't know either."

"But even if it succeeds, it doesn't matter. We are not the ones who are in trouble."

David was stunned.

That’s right!

We don't live there.

And even if they really come, we are not afraid!

Then what are you worried about!
