American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool

Chapter 455: Trial

After acquiring super powers, Bruce's life became smoother.

There is no more nagging from my girlfriend at home, no more traffic jams on the road, and I have established a good relationship with my female colleagues at the company.

As for work, as a field reporter, Bruce always "accidentally" encounters major news breaking news every time he goes out on duty.

For example: when you go to the streets for interviews, you may encounter a bank robbery; when you go to explore the suburbs, you may encounter a meteorite fall; even if you do nothing, a series of traffic accidents will appear in the background.

These continuous "coincidences" made him the chosen "God of News".

Evan, who remained in the host position, continued to encounter live broadcast accidents in the next few days.

Of course, subsequent live broadcast accidents could no longer boost the TV station’s news ratings. The audience seemed to be tired of Evan always “making trouble” in the news.

In this situation, the on-site director also lost patience with Evan and decided to replace him.

Then, the director noticed Bruce, who has been performing very well recently.

Before leaving work that day, Bruce finally got the good news from his boss:
He will take over Evan's job as host next week.

"Bruce, you should have received the good news. How are you going to thank me?" At the company gate, Susan called out to Bruce, who was about to leave after get off work, with a smile.

The girl did push Bruce before when the on-site director was re-selecting the male host.

Bruce responded quickly as well, smiling and saying, "How about I buy you a drink, like you bought me last time."

"Drinking alone is not enough~" Susan shook her head and said ambiguously: "To celebrate your becoming the host, how about I invite you to my house for dinner. Just the two of us..."

When the woman spoke, her seductive red lips and the little movements when she fixed her hair made Bruce feel dry in his mouth.

Just as he was becoming aroused and preparing to accept the woman's invitation, he suddenly felt an intense pain in his brain and heard a dense and chaotic stream of prayers.

In a trance, the voice of the woman opposite gradually became irritating.

"Bruce, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Susan noticed that the man looked unwell, so she stepped forward to support him.

"What's wrong with me..." After Bruce calmed down for a while, he still felt uncomfortable in his head and heard hallucinations in his ears.

This made him a little panicked.

"You're sweating a lot and you look terrible. Do you want me to take you to the hospital?" Susan asked with concern.

"No, no need..." After a period of buffer time, Bruce had a guess: his situation was probably related to the old man who gave him power.

"I'll go back and take a rest. We'll make an appointment to celebrate later~" Bruce, who had found the crux of the problem, no longer had the heart to flirt with Susan.

Now, he just wanted to meet the mysterious old man as soon as possible and ask him what was wrong with him.

……

"Are you sure he can do the job of an angel?" Mike was standing next to a beggar outside the local TV station building in Buffalo. After watching Bruce leave, he asked the beggar next to him.

Yes, when they met again a few days later, Mike came to ask Angel No. 1 for an explanation.

Bruce has been involved in a lot of big news these days, and the Men in Black organization has had no time to rest in order to clean up the mess for him.

As a last resort, Ms. O put the pressure on Mike.

As expected, Mike found Angel No. 1 as his guarantor.

"He just hasn't understood his true feelings yet. We need to give him a little more time..." Angel No. 1, who was holding a tattered sign, smiled and said, "Besides, there have been no casualties in the past few days, right?"

As for Bruce, although he has become arrogant, he still maintains the bottom line as a human being. When he made big news, he did not harm innocent people.

Angel No. 1 might have valued this point about him.

"Just tell me, how long will this situation last?" Michael was in no mood to play guessing games with Angel No. 1, so he directly asked the question that the Men in Black headquarters was concerned about.

"Today is the fourth day, Bruce still has three days to go." Angel No. 1 was stunned and replied. "Okay, then I'll wait another three days." Mike, who got the exact time, had already completed the mission.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but turn around and complain: "Also, can you change your beggar image? This really affects the city's appearance."

Angel number one transformed into a beggar, his body was covered in grease and his hair looked like it hadn't been washed in years, and his clothes were so tattered that they stained the eyes.

Although I knew that the other person couldn't have any bad smell, this look was still too terrible.

It can only be attributed to the other party's personal bad taste.

"Appearance is just an appearance. You will understand it sooner or later..." Angel No. 1 explained with a smile, treating Mike as a being on the same level.

"I don't believe you~" Mike touched his handsome face and turned away.

After watching Mike leave, Angel No. 1 put away his smile, shook his head, turned around and disappeared around the corner of the street.

At the same time, Bruce returned home and sat on the sofa, calling out to Angel No. 1 in his heart.

Then in the blink of an eye, an old beggar in tattered clothes appeared on the sofa opposite him.

Looking at the old man's dirty appearance, Bruce seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

"Are you going to ask me what's going on with the voice in your head?" Angel No. 1 said with a smile.

This was the moment he had been waiting for, to make Bruce understand his "duty".

However, Bruce nodded, then shook his head and said, "I'm worried about my sofa. You know, you're very different from the last time I saw you..."

When Bruce first met Angel No. 1, he was disguised as a cleaner. Although his appearance was not very good, at least he was not as sloppy as he is now.

It makes people worry whether he has fleas.

"Is my new look so bad?" Angel No. 1 wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but he saw Bruce nodding seriously.

"Forget it, you don't understand~" Angel No. 1 stopped talking and snapped his fingers, turning himself into a spirited old man wearing a well-fitting white suit and neatly haired.

"Okay, let's continue with the previous topic. What do you want to talk to me about?" Angel No. 1 said, "I can feel that you are calling me in your heart."

"I have a lot of auditory hallucinations in my head. What's going on? Also, can you help me get rid of those voices? They have made it impossible for me to live a normal life..." Seeing that the old man had changed into a pleasing image, Bruce also started talking.

He spoke out all his doubts and needs at once.

"That was not an auditory hallucination, but the prayers of believers. Now that you have God's power, you must naturally take over his work." Angel No. 1 responded.

"The prayers of believers? How can I make it stop?" Bruce, who was dizzy from the noise, urgently needed quiet.

"There's nothing I can do about this. Unless you respond to the believers' prayers one by one and make them all satisfied, the prayers can stop." Angel No. 1 showed Bruce the way.

"Is this the only way?" Bruce continued to ask.

He just roughly distinguished the information in his mind. Some people want to win the lottery and become the richest man, some want to meet beautiful girls and be surrounded by beautiful women, and some want to hold great power and become president...

These are all unrealistic wishes.

"There is only one way!" Facing Bruce's question, Angel No. 1 gave a positive answer, and then he continued: "Remember, don't let ordinary people know that you have superpowers, and your abilities cannot change the will of human beings themselves."

"Finally, you have three days..."

As the voice faded away, Angel No. 1 disappeared from the sofa.

"What will happen in three days? Explain it clearly." Bruce, who didn't know why he was warned, rushed to the window and shouted out his question.

It’s a pity that no one gave him an answer anymore, and Angel No. 1 had already left.
