Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

The next day——

"Chen, I think I should open a restaurant."

"Why? Wouldn't it be great to open a hotel? At least the income is stable and there is no risk."

"If a Chinese can come to my place every day to eat and drink, I think my food should be pretty good."

Chen Zhao rolled his eyes: "This is your illusion. I came to your place to eat and drink just because it's free."

"Then you should at least pay some money."

"I felt that paying was an insult to our friendship, so I refused."

"I don't care if you insult me."

"I care. I got it based on my ability. Why should I pay for it?"

"You know you are embarrassing the Chinese people. Do you know the Chinese consumption figures in the United States last year were more than three billion U.S. dollars, but you are not willing to pay even one dollar."

"I don't think our relationship should have a disagreement over a dollar."

"With our relationship, you should not be stingy with a dollar."

"Okay, let's not talk about a dollar. Will you pay for that woman's accommodation last night?"

"I'm not even willing to pay a dollar. Do you think I'm going to pay ten?"

"You're cruel...you didn't go to bed with her last night, right?"

"No, she is not single now."

"Smart man." Ethan Chen Zhao's answer was very satisfactory.

At this time, Chris came downstairs, but she looked listless. It seemed that she had not slept well last night.

"Chris, morning, let's have breakfast together, I'll treat you."

Ethan: “…”

"Thank you..." Chris sat next to Chen Zhao, as if nothing happened last night.

In fact, nothing happened to them.

The two sat there chatting tacitly. After breakfast, Chris stood up: "Chen, it's time for me to go back."

"I'll give it to you."

"No, I'm just going back to change my clothes and then go to work."

"Well, be careful on the road."

Ethan looked at Chrissy's back...

"Put away your dirty thoughts."

"Don't you have any ideas?"

"I am leaving."

"Where to go?"

"go home."

After returning home, Chen Zhao lay lazily on the sofa again.

After playing for two whole days, I was even more tired than when I was working.

In the past, when he was in China, Chen Zhao had never had such a chaotic private life.

"Old Hei, are you there?"

Lao Hei's head popped out of the wall. Lao Hei would occasionally follow Chen Zhao, but if he sensed something, he would break away from Chen Zhao and run to 'hunt' on his own.

"Old Hei, let me ask you something. Are there evil spirits in this world?"

"Evil spirits exist. There were many evil spirits in this house back then."

"Are there any evil spirits that affect people's minds?"

"Yes, evil spirits are generated when a person's soul dissipates after death, but negative emotions remain. Most evil spirits have the ability to affect people's emotions."

"I have a friend. You saw her the other day, the clerk in the dress shop, Chrissy. She seems to be in trouble..."

Chen Zhao told Chris's situation, and Lao Hei thought for a while: "This seems to be a reflection demon, not an evil spirit."

"Reflection Demon? Beelzebub, didn't you say there are no other demons in this world except you?"

Beelzebub is eating dog food at the moment, yes, the devil eats dog food.

"I'm right. There are no demons other than us in this world. The reflection demon did not appear in this world. He only reflected his own shadow in the human world through the mirror and did not appear in the human world."

"In other words, what Chris and I saw were just reflections?"

"No, what you and she saw are not the same thing at all. What you saw was the body of the reflected demon, and what the human woman saw was the reflection."

"Is there anything different?"

"Humans cannot see the reflection demon directly. They can only see it through a mirror. And you are obviously not an ordinary human being, so what you see should be the original body."

"Then what can you do?"

"Find the medium of the Reflection Demon and destroy it so that the Reflection Demon can no longer affect ordinary people." Beelzebub paused and then added: "But I'm warning you, this place is already very crowded, and I don't want to have another one." demon."

Beelzebub was obviously unwilling to have another demon compete with him for the demon crystal.

Beelzebub had a very sense of crisis, because he also discovered that his abilities were of little use to Chen Zhao, and even Raymond was more useful than him.

As Chen Zhao's first demon servant, he didn't want to be marginalized.

Chen Zhao thought about it and realized that Chrissy had said that her boyfriend Nance often talked to a mirror.

So that mirror should be the medium, right?

Thinking of this, Chen Zhao picked up the phone and dialed Chris' number.

"Hey, Chrissy."

"Chen, is something wrong?" Chris's mood was a little depressed.

"I told my friend about you, so I want to ask you, when did your boyfriend become abnormal?"

"Chen, I've thought about it. Maybe I thought too much before. I have broken up with him now. We will never have a relationship in the future. I don't want to talk about him anymore."

"Uh...okay."

It seemed that he was meddling in other people's business. Chen Zhao felt helpless: "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine."

"Okay, that's fine. Come out and have a cup of coffee when you have time."

"Okay, I'm busy. Goodbye."

"goodbye."

Since Chris said he didn't need help, Chen Zhao had no intention of being hot-tempered and cold-hearted.

Chen Zhao led a group of demons, big and small, into Lao Hei's space.

The three-headed dog was overjoyed when he saw Chen Zhao and his friends arriving.

Chen Zhao was in the laboratory as always, studying the notes and demonic medical skills left by the former God of Death.

Whether it is Chinese medicine, Western medicine, or demon medicine, there are certain things in common between them.

The content involved in demon medicine is more about the treatment of demons.

Demons can also get sick and injured. It is obviously difficult to cure demons using human medical skills.

However, as for demon diseases, this is only a study and is not comprehensive.

But Chen Zhao had another idea. If Chinese medicine, Western medicine, and demonic medicine were combined, would it have a greater effect?

Chen Zhao's idea is still just a concept and still needs some practice.

However, it is obviously impossible to practice it in the human world, unless Chen Zhao dissects Beelzebub and the others.

This made Chen Zhao think about going to hell again.

Chen Zhao walked out of the laboratory and looked at the three-headed dog and Beelzebub who were having a fight.

"Beelzebub, come here..."
