Zhang Lisheng looked at George in confusion with a grim expression and said nothing.
George, on the other hand, explained to himself right away, "Look at Lisheng, you're only 16 this year and you already own a slaughterhouse that earns hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Not only that, you're also planning to expand your business.
"Not only that, you have a big goal too. You want to be a great biologist like Darwin and build the best biological laboratory in the world with your own strength.
In short, you have ideals, ambitions, and the ability to realize your ideals and ambitions. If you continue to follow the prescribed order, as I said just now, you will definitely become a famous scientist who started from scratch and has a huge amount of wealth.
"Think about it, how many women will cheer for you by then!
When that time comes, do you think these athletes and playboys in front of us, such as your brother Randy, who has a different father and mother, can really become a professional football player?
Stop kidding, that's less than a thousandth of a chance. The biggest possibility for these people is to grow a big belly and live a mediocre life.
If they're lucky, they might have a small career but it's nothing compared to you … "
"Halftime Cheer Boy," A faint smile appeared on Zhang Lisheng's cold face. "George, it's hard on you to come up with a new term just to calm me down.
But buddy, I'm not as scary and unreasonable as you think. I really don't understand why you don't understand me at all even though we've known each other for so long.
Maddy's just a dance partner I hired for the prom. Now that I've achieved my goal, she can dance with whoever she wants. It has nothing to do with me.
I'm going out for some fresh air and I'm going home soon. Are you leaving? "
George hesitated and said while smiling, "I think I'll stay here and try my luck.
Maybe, you know, maybe one or two girls will break up with their handsome boyfriend right away after seeing him flirting with other girls at the prom … "
"Okay, bye." Zhang Lisheng did not listen to George's nonsense and walked out of the hall in big steps.
In the dimly lit corners of the auditorium, there were couples kissing each other affectionately.
Zhang Lisheng's head was much clearer as the cold wind blew on him after retrieving his backpack. The inexplicable anger in him faded a lot.
He stood in the wind for a while and looked at the noisy hall behind him. He smiled silently and walked forward with firm steps on the red carpet.
It was only 9 pm. Basically, nobody would leave the prom apart from the couples who could not hold back and went out secretly.
Walking on the empty red carpet, Zhang Lisheng was thinking about his cultivation at night. As he walked, he suddenly felt that something was wrong around him.
He stopped walking carefully and touched his backpack on his back out of habit. He looked around and suddenly, he realized there seemed to be some short bushes on both sides of the red carpet.
The bushes were almost the same as the short trees used for greenery in Lowbige Junior High School's campus. It was hard for them to catch anyone's attention. If it was not for the natural alertness he gained after becoming a wizard, Zhang Lisheng might still be in the dark.
Noticing that something was out of the ordinary, Zhang Lisheng chanted witchcraft incantation 'pst shh …' without hesitation. Unfortunately, it was too late.
A person suddenly crawled out of the low bushes closest to him. Moving extremely quickly, he went to Zhang Lisheng's side and pinched his elbow gently with one hand.
A gust of warm wind was emitted from the person's body, making Zhang Lisheng feel warm. He felt lazy and weak all over.
At the same time, a polite voice came into his ears, "Shh, stop singing, young Darkwalker. Otherwise, I'll break your bones."
"Dr. Fracture?" Zhang Lisheng jolted and his body froze. He stopped chanting witchcraft incantation and asked in his deep voice.
"It's me, Mr. Witch Doctor.
I'm here to look for you while your 'doll' is still in your backpack. "The person's voice was soft but it contained a chilling, dense killing intent.
"Are you going to break my neck here?" Zhang Lisheng took a deep breath of the cold air and asked calmly.
Although the witchcraft incantation he was chanting earlier did not work because Dr. Fracture stopped it, it gave him the courage to face death calmly.
Dr. Fracture chuckled and said, "How would I possibly kill an honorable Darkwalker so crudely without any sense of beauty?
I've spent a lot of effort to finally catch you. Of course, I'll do my best to 'greet' you. "
He caressed the strap of Zhang Lisheng's backpack on his back carefully and softly as he spoke.
Zhang Lisheng felt the backpack was in Dr. Fracture's hand.
"A powerful and precious voodoo doll should fetch a good price at the secret meeting. Unfortunately, it's not worth the risk." Dr. Fracture tossed the backpack far away as he spoke, "We can depart now, young Darkwalker.
I'll bring you to a good place to spend the last night of your life.
Don't play any tricks. Otherwise, I'll regrettably break your neck and drag you away. "
Zhang Lisheng nodded and walked forward silently.
Next to him was a smiling young man wearing a black and gray tuxedo. He was walking with his arm around Zhang Lisheng's shoulder like a good friend. From afar, both of them were whispering to each other from time to time.
"I have a little question to ask you. Is this your real face?"
"Of course not. In reality, you can change your face beyond recognition with some special makeup skills. Doesn't it look natural?"
"Really? But it sounds like it'll require professional skills."
"Oh, I can't believe you're still so curious when you're dying." Dr. Fracture pinched the joints on Zhang Lisheng's scapula softly hearing the probing question. A strange energy flowed into Zhang Lisheng's body through his fingertips.
The energy was warm and gentle. It wrapped around Zhang Lisheng's bones gently and dislocated the joints on his scapula one after another. Zhang Lisheng realized he could not move his left arm at all after a moment of numbness.
Subsequently, his left arm began to move at a twisted angle as he walked. Waves of excruciating pain came from his scapula. The sweat that was just dried by the cold wind seeped out of Zhang Lisheng's face again.
"This is the price you have to pay for your curiosity, Mr. Witch Doctor.
You can ask as many questions as you want. After all, you have over 200 bones in your body. There are enough joints for you to ask as many questions as you want. "
Zhang Lisheng clenched his teeth and smiled after hearing that. He held his left wrist hard with his right hand to stop his arm from moving and proceeded to walk forward silently.
The duo walked out of the sparkling Walk of Fame and arrived at the street.
It was a surprisingly cold night when the snow melted.
The Christmas holiday had begun. The temporary New Yorkers who did not settle down in New York City had left the gigantic steel forest one after another.
Meanwhile, most of the families in New York City had completed their Christmas shopping. Therefore, there were very few people on the streets of Brooklyn's main street, which was rare since it was past 9 am. Only the neon lights of the buildings by the street that never went out were shining alone.
A cold gleam flashed through Zhang Lisheng's eyes as he stood at the street and looked at his Explorer that was parked not far away.
One second, he only needed one second to summon the giant lizard that was crawling on the SUV and tear the arrogant and dangerous murderer next to him into pieces.
However, he had no idea if Dr. Fracture's palm that was placed on his body would break his neck or pierce his ribs into his heart the second he chanted witchcraft incantation.
Zhang Lisheng must take the risk to earn that one second for himself.
After thinking about it, he realized the only option he had was to induce Dr. Fracture to destroy the unimportant parts of his body with his mysterious power. He then prayed that his enemy's power could be unleashed easily but could not be controlled so he could have a chance to fight back.
"What should we do next? Are you driving, Mr. Dr. Fracture?
Oh yeah, I've forgotten to ask you. Is Dr. Fracture your nickname or are you really a doctor? Is it appropriate to call you Mr. Dr. Fracture? "Zhang Lisheng imitated George's annoying tone after making up his mind.
Dr. Fracture's fingers were wandering around Zhang Lisheng's shoulder as he said that. Unfortunately, he did not release the mysterious power that could dislocate his joints as he expected.
"Your behavior is very different from what I imagined, Mr. Witch Doctor. Most people who walk in the dark can ignore death but that's only for other people's deaths.
Knowing how fragile life is, people like us tend to cherish our lives more. We'll definitely struggle a little even if we're in a hopeless situation.
You were so obedient earlier but you're provoking me on purpose now. Both of your attitudes are weird … "His fingers stopped wandering around Zhang Lisheng's heart as he spoke.
Zhang Lisheng had goosebumps all over his body. He knew that he lacked experience in dealing with enemies. He revealed a flaw that was not a flaw and put himself in extreme danger.
