Drawing cards can't save the weird world

The air in the countryside is really much better. When Zhao Hao wakes up in the morning, he can hear crisp birdsong outside the window.

Gently waking up Elena beside them, the two looked at the large lawns, open spaces, fountains and woods outside the window, and felt that it was nice to be rich.

Zhao Hao: Made, I also want a big house! Ten times bigger than this!

Zhao Hao did a simple calculation—yesterday he asked Alan about the price of the manor, and Ailan specifically asked the housekeeper, who said, "The land was bought sixteen years ago, and the price at that time was 4.6 million."

The butler also said, "This is a 'relatively small manor' and does not usually receive business partners. There are only about 80 rooms, an orchard, a pond and a miniature golf course."

"Compared to the land, the subsequent construction costs more, wine cellar, tasting room, silver storage room with climate control, gym, indoor ice rink, swimming pool, movie screening room, beauty salon, tennis court, etc. I don't know the exact price..."

Zhao Hao: This butler is well invited. He is wearing a black tuxedo, with a white towel on his arm, a gold pocket watch in his chest pocket, and his mustache is upturned.

Well, even if the price is ten times larger, the price is simply multiplied by ten, and the land alone will cost 46 million? Or the price sixteen years ago? !

Sure enough, there are some things that you didn't have when you were born, and basically you can't expect them in this life.

Zhao Hao: Forget it, let’s sleep! There is everything in the dream!

I have to say that the life of a dozen people waiting for me is really pleasant.

This large estate has enough room for all your needs.

Zhao Hao and Elena spent a very pleasant few days here, and because of their good mood, they finished the first volume of their new work "Harry Potter Adventures" - "Harry Potter in the Chamber of Secrets" up.

It seems that going out to collect folk songs is really important for the author!

Because of Ailan's relationship now, Zhao Hao and Gou Quan don't need to contact more than a dozen small publishing houses for publishing.

Now the news and public relations department under the Duke family has full power to deal with it.

This side is still proofreading, and the advertisements over there are all printed.

Throughout the east coast of Aramco, within three days, advertisements for "Harry Potter in the Chamber of Secrets" could be seen on many bus stop signs, subways and square billboards!

It has to be said that money can turn ghosts around! Foreign devils are especially fond of this trick.

The speed of review, the speed of printing, the public relations of various soft articles and literary reviews.

All of a sudden, it seemed as if a great writer popped out from the cracks in the rocks, and wrote a masterpiece of "It's not Ami people, it's an outdated antique from the last century".

At this time, almost no one knows who the author's bird thief who loves diving is.

Only among the young people in Liberty City, there is a news circulating: It is said that the author who is physically disabled and strong enough to copy the Bible and dye the pages yellow is back! Under the pseudonym of Bird Thief who Loves Diving, he published a new book!

That's right, the new book that's advertised everywhere.

This is not to buy him a copy!

What we owe the author is the ticket we owed when we copied Uncle Liu Huang back then!

Besides, the title of this book is not serious at first glance!

In the secret room...could it be a prison play? I love this tune!

Buy buy buy!

Zhao Hao has just completed the manuscript for three days, and the first batch of 500,000 copies of "Harry Potter in the Chamber of Secrets" has been released.

It was sold out within a week. Fortunately, the Duke family has a lot of money and wealth. Regardless of whether it is sold or not, the young owner has spoken and stamped me to the death. We can’t sell our Duke family bag!

It is conceivable that this year's best-selling list is set by default.

Although the content of the book is not what many young craftsmen think, so much so that they scold the street every day, saying that they want to tear out the colorful intestines of the thieves who love diving, and drag them around the rear tires of the bus for a year.

But the content of the book is really good, which is proved by the parallel universe.

This can be regarded as a big step forward for Zhao Hao on the path of serious literature.

Zhao Hao didn't care about royalties or anything, he only cared about the sales and reader feedback a few days ago.

Hearing that readers in Liberty City gathered to scold the streets, I was very relieved.

Soon Zhao Hao and Elena had been here for almost a week, and they planned to leave. Although Alan Duke was very reluctant to stay, the two still had to leave.

Without letting Ailan send a special car to take them off, Zhao Hao and Elena planned to go back by themselves, since it wasn't too far anyway, so they would travel as two.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived in a town more than ten miles away, something happened.

...

"Clown, clown! It's a clown!"

A twelve or thirteen-year-old child, screaming in terror, rushed over recklessly from the alley, almost bumping into Elena.

As soon as Zhao Hao stretched out his hand, he directly carried the boy around in the air and placed it on the other side of his body.

When the boy was still in shock, he flew in a circle in the sky suddenly, rolled his eyes and fainted.

Zhao Hao stared, and said yes, Pengci touched your grandfather!

But Elena was kind-hearted, and she just left without agreeing.

"He didn't mean to bump into us, he seemed to be frightened by something. If we leave him here, it won't be good if something happens. Let's go when he wakes up."

Elena shook Zhao Hao's arm, her big watery eyes were really irresistible.

Zhao Hao sighed, and stretched out his hand to pinch the boy.

In fact, the reason why Zhao Hao wanted to leave the child here was because he didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

There is a very faint residual spiritual energy on this child, and it is obvious that something has happened to him.

But it's none of my business, how can there be such kindness to help each other when they meet by chance?

Besides, according to the statistics of the Bureau of Mystery, there are now tens of hundreds of supernatural incidents, large and small, in the whole of Ami every day. I am not a superman!

But since Elena is by his side, this kid is lucky.

Zhao Hao pressed the child's renzhong with psychic energy on his fingers, and immediately activated the qi channel in his body, waking him up.

When the child woke up, his eyes were blank, and he still wanted to scream.

Zhao Hao covered his mouth, and at the same time reached out and tapped Baihui on the top of his head, injecting a trace of psychic energy to soothe the nerves.

"Listen kid, I hate yelling for no reason. I'm in a good mood now, so I'll give you a chance to describe what happened to you in the shortest possible language. Do you understand?"

Zhao Hao put on the black tiger Ah Fu's aura, and the little boy was immediately stunned, and nodded stiffly.

"Say it."

Zhao Hao pulled Elena to sit on the bench by the side of the road. Elena pointed to the bench, "Sit down and talk."

One red face and one white face confused the little boy. Start pouring the beans into the bamboo tube.

It turned out that the main business of this town is logging, and this business is prone to accidents. This may cause frequent disappearances or accidents in the town.

And just less than a month ago, the younger brother of the little boy Finn's friend Bill -- disappeared during the rain.

Bill refused to admit that his brother was dead. He felt that his brother must have been washed down the sewer by the water and ran down the river.

It didn't take long for several small partners to organize and join hands to search downstream along the river.

Finally, it was discovered that the sewers in the town all converged at one point of the river, and they found a dilapidated wooden house on the edge of the forest nearby.

"The wooden house is like a forest ranger's hut, but it's surprisingly big inside. It's dilapidated, full of unimaginable debris, and... there's a well!"

When he said this, Finn's pupils dilated, his forehead was sweating and his face was pale, and he began to tremble in a daze.

Zhao Hao covered his eyes with his hands, and said, "It's fine, don't think about it anymore..."

The little boy Finn's spiritual vision has been improved, and it has improved a lot in a short period of time. He also had direct contact with spiritual beings and was greatly frightened.

If he is not given enough time to recover, his mind will be permanently affected. There may be something terrible that can't be escaped for the rest of my life.

Zhao Hao looked at Alina, "Are we going to delay in this town for a few days?"

Elena smiled and rolled her hair, "Alan's manor is indeed very nice, but if we are with you, this town is just as beautiful!"

After finishing speaking, she was still a little worried and whispered: "There will be no danger, right?"

"Relax, little meaning."

Zhao Haoxin said: You are getting better at flirting now! I am not afraid of danger now, I am afraid that the bed in the hotel in the town is not firm!

This Finn is already scared enough, let's find some other children.

Zhao Hao and Elena sent Finn home and found a hotel.

Not long after, two boys and a girl came to the hotel to look for Zhao Hao and the other two.

The tall one is Bill, 14 years old, who is the eldest brother among these children.

It was his younger brother who disappeared, so several people came across the black well, and then were harassed by some terrible things.

Nabil looked like a rebellious teenager in the second grade: "Are you really willing to believe what we say, and not come here to have fun?" There was distrust and provocation in his eyes.

Zhao Hao glanced at Elena beside him, as if he understood the mentality of this middle school boy.
