For a moment, Gwen was really moved.When she first came to this world, she was full of thoughts about how to go home, but now she has slowly begun to accept her situation.She had to consider the possibility that she would never be able to go back, so how to survive in this new world became a top priority.
First, she desperately needs to make money.
I have to say that Jessica's proposal is actually quite tempting to her, but she always feels that relying on superhero status to make profits is not a little unscrupulous (Spiderman: ???)
After thinking about it, Gwen finally shook her head: "No, that's not the meaning of what I did in the first place. To me, it's not just an identity, but a symbol of extraordinary significance. I don't want to combine this with Money is tied together, so"
As soon as she said this, a chill from the bottom of her heart suddenly rushed up her spine - it wasn't a spider sense, this premonition hadn't reached the level of "danger", but it already made her feel extremely bad.
Gwen turned her head and saw stiffly that the owner of the restaurant had stood behind her at some point, with an expression on her face that was definitely not "friendly".
Gwen suddenly realized that she was still at work, but she was sitting at the dining table with her legs crossed and chatting with Jessica for an unknown amount of time.She also realized that she was late twice and missed work once for preventing robberies and catching thieves, and the boss scolded her and said that she would be fired the next time.
It would be a trivial matter if the boss lost his temper and scolded her like the previous two times.To make matters worse, the boss only put on a substandard "Sima face" this time, and said calmly, "You are fired."
Gwen: ""
A few seconds later, Gwen, who had just been cut off from his source of income, turned to Jessica: "Well, can we talk about the price about the photos?"
Jessica: ""
What?Symbolism and meaning?Is it important for that thing to earn money to fill your stomach?
ethics?What is that?How much is a catty?
After get off work, Richard went to Aunt Lin's house as planned, and brought a bag of gifts to express his condolences.
Although Richard has heard of the existence of vampires in Marvel, he has never seen them himself.He was also slightly curious about vampires, and he also wanted to see what would happen to people bitten by vampires.
When Aunt Lin saw him, she was so excited that she almost shed tears, and hurriedly invited him into the house.
"She didn't eat or drink for the past two days, and I was going crazy." Aunt Lin looked exhausted. "The hospital examination said that she was in good health and had no problems. We told the police, and they just laughed and let everyone know." They only take what Chloe said as a joke, no one wants to believe us. It’s like mentioning the word ‘vampire’, everyone thinks it’s a prank.”
"Cathy believes it, and I want to believe it," Richard said.
Aunt Lin smiled gratifiedly: "Thank you, you are a good guy. I knew it when I first saw you. You have a newspaper and you have great influence. Maybe you can talk about it in the newspaper, and maybe someone will Watch it."
"I will," Richard said.
Aunt Lin walked to her daughter's bedroom and knocked on the door: "Chloe, are you there? Mr. Li from Planet Daily is here. I mentioned it to you, remember? You always said you wanted to meet?"
There was silence in the room, no echo.
"Chloe?"
Aunt Lin knocked on the door twice, and then gently pushed open a crack in the door.
Then she was horrified by what she saw.
What appeared in front of the two of them was a scene that could not be accurately described by the word "messy".They saw open wardrobes, drawn drawers, torn books and torn clothes thrown all over the floor in a mess.The bed was even more unsightly, the sheets were torn apart violently, and cotton wool was flying all over the room.Even if ten pickpockets entered the room one after another and went through it, it would not be possible to make the mess worse.
"I'm here, Mom."
Chloe Lee emerged from the shadows behind the door.Her face was pale, her lips were dry and chapped, and her hair was unkempt so Richard subconsciously remembered Jessica's look at home.
Maybe Chloe was indeed a beautiful woman with a [-]-point upward trend. After all, the facial features of Eastern and Western mixed blood can add a lot of points.But now her image has nothing to do with beauty, but reveals a kind of eerie like a ghost.
She looks very abnormal.For some reason, Richard instinctively felt a sense of rejection when he saw her, just like light repels darkness.
"Chloe?" Aunt Lin was stunned, "What's the matter with you?"
Chloe's eyes fell on Richard.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry but I'm really hungry."
The girl shot, as quickly as a group of disappearing afterimages.She reached out with her right hand and grabbed Richard's face with her outstretched five fingers. The whirlwind sent paper and cotton wool flying all over the room.
Aunt Lin was clearly standing between the two of them, but she didn't see what was happening in the room at all.She felt that there was a flash of a figure in front of her eyes, and when she came back to her senses the next second, Chloe had already flew out like a kite with a broken string, smashing the wardrobe behind her in half.
It stands to reason that such a hard fall should be a serious injury for ordinary people, but the girl jumped up immediately as if nothing happened, roared in a low voice, and showed two sharp and penetrating blood-sucking fangs.
No matter how dull she was, Aunt Lin realized that her daughter was seriously abnormal.She was so frightened that she stood there, unable to speak at all.Richard walked forward slowly, and said lightly: "Next, you'd better step back a little bit."
The vampire girl roared, and flew forward again.Her eyes were bloodshot, filled with desire for blood.Richard sideways avoided this pounce, and raised his hand to pull out the Evolution Truster. The white light lingered faintly around the rod-shaped transformation device, and slashed towards the girl's neck like a sharp blade.
The moment the evolutionary believer contained in the sheath slashed at the girl's neck, surging light energy poured into the girl's body like a torrent.The darkness inhabiting her body seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, screaming and being dispersed.Chloe's body trembled violently, she let out a sharp and strange cry, and fell to the floor with a crooked body, motionless like a puppet whose strings were cut and pulled.
Chapter 50 Catch a few live ones (recommended tickets for the third watch!)
Chloe lay straight on the messy floor, her body twitched a few times, and then she remained motionless.
The power of Nexus' light was poured into Chloe's body through the blow of the evolution trustee, and Richard could clearly feel that the darkness entrenched in the girl's body was gradually fading. Fall apart.And the girl's pale face is gradually recovering its blood color, and its complexion has become rosy and plump again.
Then her fangs disappeared too.
The girl struggled to open her heavy eyelids, and was dazed for a few seconds before her eyes fell on her mother: "Mom?"
Aunt Lin came back to her senses: "Chloe? Chloe, are you okay?"
"I don't know, I feel so groggy, I feel like I'm hungover." She scratched her head, "I felt like I was having a nightmare, a really bad nightmare. I was bitten by a vampire, and then I also turned into a vampire. I felt so hungry and thirsty, and then I remember jumping on someone"
Then she noticed the way the two looked at her, as if she suddenly realized something, she couldn't help but froze.
"That's true, right? That's not"
"Don't overthink it. The point is, you're fine," Richard said. "How are you feeling now?"
"Just a little dizzy and a little out of place but at least I feel more normal."
