Chapter 170

These are all of Louis's gains.

In general, the harvest is full, and this trip to help Haley solve the trouble is not a loss.

Looking at these things, Louis smiled until his eyes narrowed. Perhaps because of his previous life, he likes to collect things very much now. Looking at these things, there will be a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

"Well, next, solve the aftermath in this place and go home."

"It's a pity that I didn't meet a suitable candidate for the Four Gates on this trip."

On this trip, Louis actually had the idea of looking for the master of the Four Gates, but to this day, that golden page has no movement, and I don't know what conditions are needed to meet the requirements.

"Forget it, take your time."

The next day.

Haley stood there helplessly. Beside her was a middle-aged man who looked refined and full of upper-class temperament.

At this time, the man had a face full of anger, looking at Louis as if he were looking at the garbage everywhere on the street. David, who was sitting opposite him, looked helpless.

"Uncle, I think there might be some misunderstanding between us." Louis, who had just come downstairs, said so.

"It better be. I came here this time because I heard my daughter say she wanted to transfer schools. In fact, I am very happy that she can leave that public school to study well, but I didn't expect the place she wanted to go to was Florida."

"This is unacceptable!" He said decisively.

"But she insisted on going. I know her, there must be a reason for this. So, I discovered that the reason my daughter wanted to go far away was actually because of a person." His gaze looked sharply at Louis.

Louis didn't have the attitude he just had at this time, just looking at him flatly, without dodging, without any fluctuation.

The man looked at Louis, then looked at David, "So, I came."

David knew the other party's intention very well, but what could he do?

He didn't know!

This, being Louis's uncle is really hard, not only have to be bait, but now have to take the blame... forget it, I'll endure it.

David smiled and just wanted to speak.

"Haley, you should stay here, you might not be suitable for transferring schools." Louis looked at Haley and said.

This kind of thing is not forced, and it's not that he begged to go. If you can go, go; if you can't, don't. No need to make any trouble.

Haley was startled and fell silent.

She is very smart, so she knows very well that Louis is dissatisfied now, dissatisfied that she couldn't even solve this kind of thing.

Then, it's time to make up her mind.

Haley suddenly looked at her father, "Dad, come here."

The two went out of the house. A moment later, a fierce quarrel sounded, then stopped, bang!

Hum!

The sound of the vehicle starting and driving away sounded.

Haley opened the door and walked in, "Sorry, there was some unpleasantness just now, now I can transfer schools."

David frowned, "Haley, communicate well with your father. It is indeed inappropriate for you to transfer schools so far away."

Haley shook her head, "People always have to be independent. I don't think my choice will be wrong;

Any moment that changes destiny requires a price. Being away from home is nothing, and if the opportunity is missed, there might not be a next time. As for my father, I understand his love, but I have my choices and considerations."

"When a brand new me appears in the future, my father will understand."

At this time, Haley looked very calm. For some reason, David seemed to see the shadow of his daughter Yulunka on her.

Equally calm, equally eloquent.

"Besides, Louis is my old friend, I believe in him." Haley suddenly smiled at Louis.

Louis nodded without speaking.

Since she has decided, there is nothing to struggle with, "Leave tomorrow, prepare your things. If you can't go back, then stay here first and let the front desk open a room for you."

After speaking, he went upstairs.

Haley bowed politely to David and went to the front desk.

Leaving David in a daze, he felt whether he was out of touch with the times? Why are the children now so special?

Wait, what Haley said just now seems to have deep meaning...

David remembered Louis's special ability.

A realization arose in his heart, "So that's it. In that case, it is indeed an opportunity not to be missed."

"It seems Haley sees it very clearly and can make up her mind."

"The children now, one by one, are much stronger than us..."

Upstairs, Louis took out the map and began to check the town of Evanwood. This time going home, he prepared to drive back. No way, he really didn't want to take the plane, a means of transportation with a low survival probability.

And if he drives back, the distance is a bit far, so Louis prepared to take the train when he gets to the central state, so the speed can be much faster.

In addition, before driving away, he must solve the aftermath first.

Well, Evanwood town.

Damn Minier cult and demons.

He is very vengeful!

A moment later, Louis found the location on the map, "Hey, it's just on the route back, what a coincidence."

Louis's mouth raised slightly.

The next day.

After buying a stretched sedan locally, the group prepared their luggage and officially set off.

Driving on the road, feeling the cool breeze blowing in from the window, Louis closed his eyes and enjoyed it. Every time he drives on the road, the cool breeze, air, and scenery make him quite like it.

It's just that David is a bit uncomfortable. His attention is fully concentrated, and he often looks at the ground, as if he is afraid of seeing any human bone darts or the like on the ground.

As for Carrie, Haley, and Beth in the back seat, the situation is a bit peculiar.

Although Haley is polite, she is usually cold and speaks little. It just so happens that Carrie is also a cold character now, especially when Carrie sees that Haley seems to be Louis's old acquaintance, she has no good face for her.

As for Beth, well, because Louis gave her an order, although she really wanted to communicate with these two females who are close to the master, and it would be best to please them, she could only shut up and sit in the middle of the two as a coolant.

And the two who sat on each side really didn't say a word, just dazed in the back.

So, besides playing Michael Jackson's new song in the car, there was only the conversation between Louis and David in the front seat.

"Uncle David, how is business recently?"

"It's okay. If this business is done, I should be able to make a big profit. After the collapse of the Mao Bear, it seems that many things have changed. Business suddenly became much easier to do, and the taxes collected were less, but some businesses seem to have gone bankrupt instead."

"Especially those inexplicable taxes. Although the taxes on commerce are less, the taxes on medical care, housing, and insurance have increased, and the welfare benefits are actually shrinking. Don't we pay a lot of taxes every year?"

"However, the pressure on the lives of ordinary people is clearly greater, but the society seems to be much more prosperous than before."

"I don't understand, I really don't understand. I don't have this business mind. I probably won't be a real capitalist in this life."

David, who was driving, looked ahead without blinking, and at the same time could chat with Louis with a sigh, using one mind for two purposes, but both sides were very serious.

Louis's eyes were a little surprised. Uncle David doesn't have the talent for using one mind for two purposes, right?

As for what Uncle David said, sigh, this is normal. The previous high welfare situation was abnormal.

"By the way, since the collapse of the Mao Bear, a lot of things have broken out. I heard that Er Mao even dared to sell nuclear bombs! Nuclear bombs! They actually dared to sell them!"

David exclaimed.

For people of their generation, the prestige of nuclear bombs has been heard since childhood, and the impression of its power destroying the world, small quantity, and national heavy weapon has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

So, when he heard that even nuclear bombs could be traded, the first thought was that the other party was crazy. If there are terrorist organizations, cults, etc., do they sell them too?

But unfortunately, the world is so magical. Nuclear bombs can really be traded. Many of the Mao Bear's nuclear bombs, except for most of them in the hands of the successor Da Mao after the split, belong to Er Mao, so Er Mao really has nuclear bombs to sell!

Fortunately, several major countries in the world do not allow Er Mao to sell nuclear bombs, otherwise I really dare not imagine what the world would become.

"Don't worry, Er Mao can't sell them."

David also nodded in agreement, then was a little confused.

"What will America be like in the future..."

"That's really only God knows." Louis added.

"Yes, only God knows."

"By the way, Louis, I want to worship the Kitchen God properly. What do you usually do?" David suddenly said. It didn't look like a joke, nor was it a whim before.

"This, the Kitchen God is the family guardian god, fire god, kitchen god, god of monitoring good and evil, god of fortune and fate. There are many divine positions, but most of the time it is mainly the fire god and kitchen god, so just worship it when you usually make a fire and cook."

"By the way, there is also inviting the Kitchen God back. For simpler ones, you can paste a portrait. For more complex ones, it is to invite a shrine statue, so that you can better worship." Louis explained.

David nodded knowingly. It seems he really listened, but I don't know how he understood it.

"Alright, I'll try it when I go back."

It seems that David really wants to believe in the Kitchen God. That's right, having experienced so much, it's not strange at all that he believes in the existence of gods.

But God has never manifested, and with Louis as an example, is there any need to hesitate about which one to choose?

Time passed slowly in the chat between the two.

The sky gradually moved toward noon, and the sun began to be hot.

At this time, the outline of the town appeared in front of the road.

Louis also showed a smile at this time.

Brush!

The vehicle drove past, just passing the town sign—Evanwood.

Evanwood town, a very ordinary town.

Louis and others stopped here, ready to eat something, add some oil, and rest before continuing on the road.

But Louis came here with something to do. While eating, Louis separated from David and others, taking only Carrie.
