Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Fali enjoyed the festive atmosphere.

It’s not the process, it’s the kind that makes the whole world overflowing with blessings.

Everyone called to wish her a happy holiday.

As for little Gelin, children all like to celebrate the holidays.

Little Gelin is no exception.

Fali, Xiao Gelin, and Chen Zhao all understand.

Princess and Wanda also like it, and Chen Zhao can understand it.

Because they have delicious food.

Lemurs also like to celebrate festivals because they have something to do during the festivals.

For lemures, something like a sense of presence is very important.

They need to work to gain a sense of presence.

But why does Samael like it too?

I talk about conquering the world every day, but why do I only see one salted fish?

He was completely addicted to catnip and couldn't help himself.

Among the whole family, only Chen Zhao seems to be indifferent to the festival.

Chen Zhao is not the only person in the world who is indifferent to Christmas.

Even for the Chinese Spring Festival, Chen Zhao no longer had the same expectations as his contemporaries.

Of course, Chen Zhao still shows his enthusiasm when treating his family, making it look like he is enjoying the festival.

Chen Zhao is willing to accommodate his family, rather than letting his family feel that he doesn't like the festival so that they can accommodate him.

Festivals should have a festive atmosphere. This is Chen Zhao's own problem, not the fault of those who love festivals.

"Chen, when is the Chinese New Year?"

"It will take another two months." Chen Zhao said.

Fali is an absolute holiday fiend.

This Christmas has just passed, and she is already thinking about the Spring Festival.

"The Spring Festival is in early February."

"How will you celebrate the Spring Festival?"

How to celebrate the Spring Festival?

How could Chen Zhao answer this kind of question?

According to Chinese tradition, they set off firecrackers, give lucky money, eat dumplings, watch the Spring Festival Gala, and visit relatives.

This is how Chinese people celebrate the Spring Festival.

In the south, dumplings are not eaten. In some areas, there is a tradition that children under one year old are not given lucky money.

New Year's money means keeping your age down, so giving New Year's money to a little kid is not a good sign.

Chen Zhao and Fali discussed the customs of the Spring Festival and the comparison with Western Christmas.

At this moment, Chen Zhao's phone rang.

When Chen Zhao saw the call, why was it that old guy Leon?

"Hello, Mr. Chen."

"What's the matter? Mr. Leon."

"Mr. Chen, the military has encountered a problem recently. Please send a few people from your Supernatural Association."

"Mr. Leon, you seem to have forgotten the rules of the Supernatural Association." Chen Zhao said: "The Supernatural Association does not participate in the actions of the government or the military, and the military and government cannot intervene in the actions taken over by the Supernatural Association. They can only Cooperate."

This rule was not made by Chen Zhao, but by the Supernatural International Alliance.

This is to ensure that the Paranormal Society does not become a tool of a certain government.

"Mr. Chen, I do not ask you to participate in this operation, but as a consultant to help the military solve some problems."

"What's the trouble?" Chen Zhao asked.

"Recently, a group of tourists disappeared in the desert a hundred kilometers northwest of Las Vegas. The military participated in the search operation and then detected a huge underground building complex in the area near where the tourists disappeared. Currently, two teams of ten people have been dispatched to enter this underground complex in two batches, but only one survivor escaped, but after saying some weird words, he died in the hospital the next day."

"What did you say?"

"A paradise for monsters, that's a paradise for monsters." Leon said.

"Have you detected any signs of life?"

"No."

"When West comes back from Cape Town, I'll ask him to go over and check out the situation." Anyway, Chen Zhao had the mentality that it didn't matter to him.

This matter is a military matter and has nothing to do with him, and it has nothing to do with the Supernatural Association.

"Mr. Chen, I asked West and he said they will take at least ten days."

"Oh, then you can only wait a moment." Chen Zhao said disapprovingly.

"Mr. Chen, aren't you in Los Angeles now? Los Angeles is only four hundred kilometers away from Las Vegas, and I can send a plane to pick you up."

"And then you throw me down from the sky?"

"Mr. Chen, I said that the incident last time had nothing to do with me. Do you believe it?"

"Haha...I believe it."

Chen Zhao didn't care whether it was arranged by Leon or not, but this time he could manipulate him casually, so why should he listen to his explanation.

Leon was also very depressed. Ever since he broke up with Chen Zhao, even West's attitude towards him had become very bad.

It's worse than never meeting Chen Zhao before, at least he can still give directions to West.

But since falling out with Chen Zhao, everything has changed.

The Supernatural Society became more aggressive, and West spoke to him in a sinister manner.

"Mr. Chen, I only need you as a consultant. I don't need you to take action. I only need you to provide some professional guidance to the third exploration team so that they can take correct preventive actions when they encounter danger."

"I'm busy."

"Just treat it as private employment, five hundred thousand dollars." Looking at Chen Zhao's attitude, Leon knew that Chen Zhao would not help unless he gave him some benefits.

Chen Zhao thought for a while and said, "I want to go and come back the same day. There will be a party at my home the day after tomorrow."

"Of course, it's just guidance." Leon said, gritting his teeth in his heart, half a million dollars, just for one day.

"Tomorrow morning, send a helicopter to pick me up."

Leon was helpless against Chen Zhao's arrogance.

The next day, a military helicopter hovered over Mirror Lake.

Both Chen Zhao and Fali were awakened by the huge roar of the helicopter.

Chen Zhao told Fali last night. Chen Zhao changed his clothes and hurriedly got on the helicopter.

In addition to the pilot, there were two heavily armed soldiers on the helicopter, sitting in the helicopter with serious expressions.

They didn't know Chen Zhao's identity, they only knew what kind of expert Chen Zhao was.

"Sir, do you need earmuffs?" The pilot handed one to Chen Zhao.

When traveling in a helicopter for medium to long distances, earmuffs are required because the noise frequency of the propeller is very high and continuous.

If a person is affected by propeller noise for more than 30 minutes without protection, he will become distracted or even lose control of his emotions.

Not long after Chen Zhao got up, he was already a little out of shape. After taking the earmuffs, he sat back on the chair and fell asleep.

"Call me when you get there."

About two hours later, the helicopter stopped over a camp.

After Chen Zhao got off the helicopter, several people came over to greet him.

One of them was Lieutenant Paul, but there was a woman beside him.

This person Chen Zhao also had a relationship with Sonnenfeld's daughter.

I'll stop here today. I need to change my schedule. It's too chaotic.
