The North American Gourmet Demon Handbook

Now, after realizing that this was an FBI car, the son of this financial tycoon suddenly came back to his senses from his extreme fear.

The FBI is a violent agency after all, so why can't it scare people?

Alex said with interest, "I just need some help to take down a troublesome FBI agent. How about it? Name a price?"

"What do you like? Money? The last thing the Drummond family lacks is money! Or treasures? Manors? Artworks? Women? Or people who want to taste all kinds of flavors in the world?" Alex became more and more excited as he spoke.

His words became more and more eloquent: "Whatever you want, Mr. Li, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me, I, Alex Drummond, guarantee that I can get it for you!"

"Even if it's the Mona Lisa in the Louvre, I can hire the best bounty hunter in the world to steal it for you!"

"Even if you're involved in a lawsuit involving cannibalism, I know a lawyer. She's the daughter of Senator Hamilton. She maintains a perfect record of winning all her lawsuits. I can ask her to defend you!"

Uh, are you asking my woman to bribe me?

Li Shanze took great effort to hold back his smile.

"Tell me first, who are you going to deal with?" Li Shanze said, trying hard to suppress his smile.

Don't tell me you hired me to kill Kate, I'm afraid I won't be able to help laughing.

However, what are you afraid of?

Alex hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, she's a senior agent in the FBI's Special Affairs Division and a Grand Knight of the Catholic Church. Her name is Kate MacKenzie."

You really want to hire me to kill my woman!

Li Shanze pinched his thighs desperately to prevent himself from laughing out loud.

"Why? Why do you think I can fight against this great knight of the Catholic Church?" Li Shanze asked.

Alex didn't notice the distortion in Li Shanze's voice, but he shook his head. "I guarantee she's no match for you, Mr. Li! With the skills you just showed, it won't be difficult for you to take her down!"

I can really pin her down and beat her up at any time.

"You are quite good at judging people!" Li Shanze praised Alex generously.

However, Li Shanze was also very curious about Alex Drummond's motives for dealing with Kate - he was even so eager to extend a hiring offer to the "Ogre" whom he had never met before and knew nothing about. Why was he so eager to get rid of Kate?

Therefore, Li Shanze pondered for a moment (actually suppressing a smile), and asked seriously: "I must know why you want to get rid of this Catholic knight?"

"Personal reasons." Alex Drummond said lightly.

Li Shanze shook his head. "I'm sorry, but I won't become an enemy of the Catholic Church's Grand Knight just for 'personal reasons.' Now, please leave, Mr. Alex."

Li Shanze deliberately pretended to be indifferent, turned around and ignored Alex.

He wanted to see how determined Alex was to take action against Kate.

Unexpectedly, Alex suddenly shouted, "Cyrus Morton! Now this ogre has mastered the secret that may threaten the heir of the Drummond family! According to the contract you signed with our family, you must take action against him! You must not let him go!"

Oh, so it turns out that you weren't asking me to deal with Kate, but you were really trying to use this secret to force the lazy wizard to take action.

That's right. How could you possibly tell someone you don't trust about something you're dealing with your enemy?

Li Shanze thought that Alex was quite quick-witted.

At least, he has fully mastered how to mobilize the enthusiasm of employees who are slacking off. He is truly worthy of being the ultimate form of capitalist - financial capitalist.

It’s a pity that his quick wit came a little late.

Because Li Shanze had just received the secret signal from Kate, which meant that Kate had already caught the clues of the wizard hiding in the dark.

"Ha, so you fabricated a great knight of the church just to provoke your wizard to take action?" Li Shanze smiled.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li. I really do want to deal with this great knight of the church. If you're willing to reach an agreement with me, that would be great. Unfortunately, you rejected me and the friendship of the Drummond family."

Alex's tone was quite sincere.

But Li Shanze felt that he was probably just trying to launch a psychological offensive - after all, Alex Drummond was a financial capitalist.

Anyone who takes the words of financial capitalists seriously will be compensated no matter how much wealth he has.

"So you are really sincere?" Li Shanze looked regretful.

"Yes, of course I am sincere. It's a pity—"

"What a pity!" Kate roared angrily. She pointed her gun at a wizard and slowly approached. "What a pity that I discovered your conspiracy in advance."

Kate was covered in holy light, and her golden hair looked as white as snow under the strong holy light.

"Now, I'm actually very curious. What on earth did I do to bother you that made you want to hire someone to kill me, no matter what means? Hmm?"

"I don't remember ever meeting you, Mr. Alex Drummond." Kate smiled coldly.

Alex opened his eyes wide in surprise. When the person he was planning to murder appeared in front of him in person with a bad look on his face, his pupils could hardly contain any other emotions except panic.

"You are, you are..." He couldn't help but pull his tie, his Adam's apple trembling, and he stood up involuntarily, flipping the chair backwards.

"I happen to be Kate Mackenzie, a Grand Knight of the Catholic Church, the very person you murdered!" Kate said majestically.

Alex's expression changed, and then he turned and ran away.

Li Shanze raised his gun and aimed at Alex's leg, then he looked at the wizard named Cyrus Morton.

Cyrus Morton raised his hands and made a lazy, helpless expression, as if to say, "I have been caught and cannot fulfill my obligation to protect my employer. You will not violate the contract by shooting me."

The wizard acted as if he was going to slack off to the end, and was extremely indifferent to what might happen to his employer next.

Li Shanze found it hard to imagine how Alex Drummond had offended this wizard.

Looking at Alex, whose legs were weak and he was staggering forward, Li Shanze was about to pull the trigger.

At this moment, a leg suddenly stretched out from the ground and tripped Alex.

It turned out to be Annabelle, who had just been knocked unconscious and given to Li Shanze by Alex as food.

She didn't know how long she had been awake, and she had been lying on the ground pretending to be dead.

Since no one paid attention to her, a small figure, she got away with it and ended up biting Alex at the most unexpected moment.

"Ah! Ah! You! You damn bitch!" Alex's face turned pale and he cursed viciously. He used his hands and feet to crawl out.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh! Bastard! Don't even think about running away!" Annabelle hugged Alex's legs with all her strength.

The two people were entangled together in a very awkward manner.

Li Shanze put down his gun with regret and gave up the opportunity to torture Alex, but fortunately the night was still long.

247 The Slacking Wizard

"How did you find him?" Seeing that the situation was completely under control, Li Shanze relaxed and asked Kate curiously.

"I think this might be the work of that little bitch," Kate replied with a smile, not taking credit for it. "The bushes quietly took on various shapes in the night, leading me to discover this wizard."

Cyrus Morton lazily made a very fake expression of "What, is this how we were discovered?"

His acting is so exaggerated that you can tell at a glance that he is acting.

At this time, inside the RV.

Jennifer was explaining to Charlie, "No, you're too kind, Mistress. I think the wizard deliberately let me find him. I hadn't been able to detect his whereabouts before, even with the help of the plants in the entire forest. I couldn't find him. He was hiding very well."

"But after Alex Drummond asked him to take action against his master, it was as if his disguise suddenly failed."

"At first I thought he was going to attack his master, so I quickly directed the plants to report to Kate."

"In hindsight, he didn't do anything after revealing his hiding place. Perhaps he intended for me to find him."

Charlie nodded. "Any wizard with any dignity would be unable to tolerate Alexander Drummond's arrogant orders. It's perfectly normal for this wizard to choose a passive resistance."

When Xia Li said this, she obviously didn't consider how Li Shanze and Jennifer got along.

In fact, Li Shanze's tone towards Jennifer was much more impolite.

However, Jennifer had no idea of ​​this at all - that was the master, and there was no comparison between him and a stupid and arrogant mortal like Alex Drummond.

Jennifer even nodded in agreement as a wizard.

After discovering that the hostess was a wizard, Jennifer seemed to be less averse to the identity of a wizard. She was even secretly proud of her identity. Her attitude had almost changed 180 degrees.

In fact, Jennifer's inability to find herself, her dependence on others' opinions, her sometimes self-hating and sometimes arrogant behavior, is one of the manifestations of the wizards of the Delusional Society beginning to fall into a nihilistic existential crisis.

The spiritual school wizards of the Delusional Society use the mind as their battlefield and view the human brain as programmable wetware. They reshape the world into a carnival of collective hysteria by tampering with memories, distorting logic, and sowing group madness.

They are both tyrants of their thoughts and prisoners of their own cognition - every act of mental manipulation feeds the black hole of nothingness in their hearts.

After all, when you can rewrite all your cognition, how can you prove that you are not an illusion created by others?

Jennifer has already quietly fallen into this nihilism, and may be only one step away from truly falling into a wizard's existential crisis.

It is precisely because of this that Jennifer easily accepted her identity as a "bitch" before Kate had the chance to construct a complete set of positive and negative feedback to discipline her.

But no one has noticed this yet.

Although Li Shanze didn't know that Cyrus Morton had deliberately been discovered, the wizard's lazy attitude was obvious.

Li Shanze didn't want to cause any trouble for the time being. After all, he had more important issues to figure out right now.

Li Shanze originally thought that Alex Drummond was just an ordinary second-generation rich kid who was doing bad things. He wanted to simply scare him and be done with it.

But no one expected that such vicious words as murdering Kate would come out of his mouth.

Especially considering that the bodyguard beside him was a remnant of the Silver Nail Brotherhood who had a grudge against Kate - Li Shanze was almost able to successfully outline the blueprint of the conspiracy in his mind.

So Li Shanze really wanted to figure out what was going on.

But Alex obviously wasn't cooperating.

After his unrefined brawl with Annabelle, and after punching her in the eye, knocking the poor woman unconscious once again, Alex seemed to have regained some confidence.

He calmly got up from the ground, stood up straight, and even calmly straightened his sleeves and brushed off the dirt on his body.

What tricks is this guy trying to play?

Li Shanze looked at Alex, but he was too lazy to watch Alex's monkey show. He simply asked, "How about this? I'll give you a chance to live. Tell me why you are planning to attack the Grand Knight of the Church, and I'll let you go. How about that?"

The so-called "chance to survive" is of course just a blank check.

Li Shanze believed that as long as he let Alex go and gave him a chance to live, then, whether it was Annabell who tripped Alex hard, or Mr. Wizard who was dawdling and watching him die, they would do something for their own chance to live.

Therefore, Li Shanze put forward this condition with a lot of bad taste.

Unfortunately, Alex was not willing to cooperate with Li Shanze.

"I'm sorry, I once promised to keep it a secret. It's a promise from a gentleman. So, I will never tell it. I would rather give up this chance to live." Alex was in the mood for drama and said it with emotion.

?

Are you sober?

Why are you suddenly performing in a stage play?

Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

You just punched a woman you betrayed, and you even tried to hire someone to murder a great knight of the Catholic Church, and now you're suddenly acting like a gentleman?

How do you manage to act like a gentleman without batting an eyelid?

Originally, Li Shanze thought that Jennifer was an abstract existence, but now it seems that Alex is no less so.

Li Shanze originally thought that Americans were abstract enough, but these upper-class guys were even more difficult to understand.

Their double standards are as natural as breathing. They have no guilt about the immoral things they have done, and they forget about them as soon as they turn around. Then they can naturally condemn others for being immoral.

Are all the ruling class in America so confused?

Li Shanze felt that he had laughed out of anger more times today than in all the previous days combined.

"Well, it seems that Mr. Drummond has voluntarily given up his right to live." Li Shanze shrugged and said to Kate, "Then I leave it to you, Kate. You can do whatever you want to him."

Li Shanze shook his head and completely lost interest in Alex Drummond.

"Don't worry, I will treat him well." Kate said, rubbing her hands.

Kate was already furious because of the friction with Charlie, and now she encountered someone who wanted to murder her, so she planned to vent her anger.

"Wait!" Alex suddenly shouted.

Li Shanze stopped and turned around with amusement: "Why, have you changed your mind, Mr. Drummond?"

"That's not right! Why don't you, the ogre, play by the rules?" Alex Drummond asked loudly.

This question confused Li Shanze.

Don't you understand what people are saying?
