"Why should I regret it?" Elena asked with a smile.
Su shrugged, as if to say, "You know what I'm talking about."
Elena chuckled, a hint of smugness in her eyes, and said, "The one who should regret it is Caroline. She's still thinking about how to go on a date with you this weekend, and you're already in my room. If, if Caroline confessed to you beforehand, would you have said yes?"
Ms. Su shook her head: "No, I've already given my reasons."
"And...what about Anna?"
Su turned to face Elena and asked with feigned interest, "What if it's what you think?"
"I will be better than her."
Ms. Su smiled and shook her head.
Elena added helplessly, "It'll get better in the future, okay? Honestly, I don't understand why you care so much about age. Isn't this normal?"
"It's you who think it's normal, not me!" Su laughed and stood up. "It's too late, you really should rest, otherwise your pretty little face will have dark circles under your eyes tomorrow."
They said goodnight to each other again, and this time Su was not surprised.
-
The sun is shining and the wind is beautiful.
Su walked out of a hospital in Louisiana, where he had visited Dean, who had fully recovered and was hailed by doctors as a miracle of human medicine, half an hour earlier.
John made a deal with the devil to bring Dean back. When Dean awoke and learned the news, he was devastated and had a huge fight with Sam. He wanted to use his own soul to bring his father back, but Sam and Sue persuaded him to stop.
Dean even wanted Sue's help to resurrect his father, since Sue had previously said that she had the potential to resurrect others and had even allowed Sam to keep his girlfriend's DNA.
Unfortunately, the Su family currently possesses no resurrection-related ninjutsu, and even if they did, it wouldn't be usable on John. After calming down, Dean and Sam decided to continue their demon hunt while simultaneously searching for a way to resurrect their father.
After waving to flag down a car, Su, who had visited the Wen brothers, headed to her next destination—Liangchen Town!
The story of True Blood takes place primarily in Good Town and revolves around the female protagonist, Suki Stackhouse.
Despite countless criticisms of Suki Stackhouse's appearance, she still has her unique qualities as the female lead.
As a half-human, half-elf, she has the ability to read minds; she can 'hear' what anyone is thinking.
Unaware of her true origins, she was troubled by this ability for a long time, and Su wanted to know if her mind-reading ability would be effective against her.
Secondly, the fact that the blood of hybrid elves can temporarily protect vampires from sunlight is also worth studying.
Besides Suki Stackhouse, there are also shapeshifters and leopard people in Good Time Town who can only transform into animals.
Especially the leopard people, their situation is similar to that of werewolves, except that they transform into leopards. They are very rare. It is said that in order to maintain the purity of their bloodline, they have always intermarried within the tribe, in other words, they are inbreeding, so their intelligence is not very high.
Liangchen Town is similar to Mysterious Waterfall Town in that it has a small population and a backward economy. The difference is that Liangchen Town is closer to a larger neighboring town, so it has a relatively larger migrant population than Mysterious Waterfall Town.
Inspired by Elena's diary, Sue made a special trip to Brooklyn before coming to Louisiana to buy a high-resolution camera, intending to use it to record the various supernatural creatures he would encounter in the future.
"Marlot Bar, this is it!" Su told the driver to stop the car, paid a hefty fare, and then got out and walked to the bar called Marlot.
"Crack!"
Su took a picture of the front of the bar with her camera, then pushed open the door and went inside.
It's called a bar, but it's more like a fast food restaurant.
Besides selling alcohol, they also offer some fast food. The interior decoration is nothing special, similar to a fast food restaurant with booths and tables, a bar counter, two pool tables, and that's it.
There was no one in the lobby, no one at the bar, and no one in the kitchen. Had I arrived too early? Had the restaurant not officially opened yet?
"Is anyone there?" Su called out.
A few seconds later, a voice that sounded sleepy replied impatiently, "Coming! Who's here to drink at the bar so early?"
Shortly after, the sound of a door opening and closing was heard, and a curly-haired man who was buttoning his shirt as he walked out came out.
"I don't think I've seen you before!" Sam, still half-asleep, looked at Sue curiously.
He is also called Sam, and his full name is Sam Marott.
Su shrugged: "Now you've seen it, haven't you?"
Sam Marott walked behind the bar with a smile: "Drinks are on me, but if you want food, figure it out yourself. You see, the chef hasn't started work yet."
The two bottles of beer were opened, and Sam Marott took a sip and asked curiously, "Where did you get this from?"
People in this country seem to be quite outgoing. Su has been asked where she's from in restaurants or bars several times, as if you would know just by telling her.
"Business here isn't very good, is it? Have you thought about selling it?" Mrs. Su asked with a smile.
Sam Marott shook his head: "I never thought this would be my home. I don't know where to go or what to do if I leave here."
Do you accept investment?
"Who would invest in a bar that doesn't make money, you?" Sam Marott curled his lip in disapproval.
Then, he was dumbfounded.
The young man who had been sitting in front of him suddenly vanished, and before Sam could react, the young man reappeared. If it weren't for the stacks of cash on the bar, Sam would have thought he was seeing things.
Chapter 102 Boys must protect themselves when they are out.
“Here’s $100,000. How about 30% of the shares? Too much and you won’t accept it; too little and I’m not interested. I won’t get involved in the daily maintenance and management. As for dividends… forget about dividends, they’re too little, I don’t care.” Su pushed the money to a bewildered Sam Marott.
"You only invest and don't get any dividends? Do you have so much money you don't know what to do with it?" Sam Marott blurted out instinctively, then realized what he meant and took a step back, staring at the Su family: "You...you're not an ordinary person, are you?"
Su clicked his tongue as he sipped his beer: "You're asking as if you're an ordinary person."
"Of course I..." Sam Marott was about to deny it when he saw Sue looking at him with a half-smile, an expression that seemed to know everything, which made him unable to deny it.
"Fine, what do you want!" Sam turned and walked out from behind the bar, looking like he was about to start a fight at the slightest provocation.
Su turned slightly to the side and said calmly, "Investing in a bar, I've made myself very clear."
“I refuse,” Sam Marott said in a deep voice. “I don’t need the money, and the bar doesn’t need a new owner. If there’s nothing else, you can leave.”
What if I don't want to leave?
“Then I’ll have to kick you out.” Sam Marott rolled up his sleeves and lunged at Sue 14.
"Huh?" Sam Marott, who was throwing a punch with all his might, suddenly saw Sue disappear again.
"Where are you looking?" Su asked, sitting in the booth behind Sam Marott.
Sam Marott turned around and lunged at Sue again.
"call out--"
Su sat leisurely on the pool table, swinging her legs: "Here, I'm here!"
"Fuck!" Sam Marott cursed under his breath and lunged again, but... he missed once more.
Sue was like a ghost, disappearing every time Sam Marott was about to charge.
The booths, the pool table, the bar, even the kitchen—Su disappeared and reappeared, luring Sam Marott back and forth for over ten minutes, until Sam Marott finally gave up chasing her.
Su stood behind the bar and shouted, tossing a bottle of beer over: "Don't you also have another name, Dean?"
Sam Marott snorted with a grim expression. He was a shapeshifter who could transform into various animals such as cats, dogs, birds, and horses, but he needed a reference point. Even when he transformed into a bird, he couldn't fly, and he couldn't wear clothes during the transformation process.
Dean is the name of the dog he transformed into!
Sam? Dean?
Do you know the Wen brothers?!
"Who exactly are you?" Sam Marott took a couple of sips of beer and said somewhat resignedly, "If you're after revenge, I can't remember ever offending you; if you're after money, I have hundreds of thousands of dollars in my safe, and it's all yours."
Hundreds of thousands of US dollars?
Thanks, I was offended.
That said, several hundred thousand US dollars must be all of Sam Marott's savings from running the bar over the years, right? Instead of putting it in a bank, he keeps it in a safe in his room. Isn't he afraid of a fire or theft that could wipe out all his savings?
You can't assume that just because you're a shapeshifter with special abilities, you can guarantee that the money won't be lost, right?
His mere circling around was worse than a street thug's. As for transformation? What good is it except for escaping and doing some reconnaissance?
Let alone theft, even if it's outright robbery, what use is your ability to transform if a big, burly man is carrying a gun?
Turn into a dog and bite him?
Turn into a cat and scratch him?
Or should I turn into a horse and kick him to death?
There's probably only one reason to keep all your savings in a safe: so you can easily abscond with the money at any time.
It seems that he was abandoned when he was a child. After being adopted, his adoptive parents found out about his shapeshifting identity because he had to transform during the full moon. At the age of 15, he ran away from home to live alone. At the age of 17, he met a mysterious woman named Marian.
The innocent shapeshifting teenager has no idea how dangerous society is or how complex human nature is. Boys must protect themselves when they are out in the world, or it will be too late to regret it.
Sam Marott, who was seducen, no, frightened, stole Marianne's jewelry while she was asleep and ran away. The bar was opened with that money.
For all these years, Sam Marott must have been afraid that Marian would find him one day, which is why he kept the money with him so he could run away at any time.
What could Su say?
It can only be said that his concerns were valid!
Marian did eventually find him and used other female shapeshifters to get close to him, intending to sacrifice him as a ritual offering.
Sue wasn't particularly interested in Sam Marott, after all, he had seen shapeshifters before, and Sam Marott was no different from any other shapeshifter.
Marian, on the other hand, is quite special.
The Bacchus Handmaiden is her title, as well as her type or identity. It is difficult to define which type of supernatural species she belongs to, but the Bacchus Handmaiden is transformed from a human and evolved into the Bacchus Handmaiden through faith.
The Handmaid of Dionysus has special abilities that can force shapeshifters to transform and manipulate humans. Once manipulated, a human's eyes will turn black, and the Dionysian power will reside within them. They will be driven and their minds controlled, causing them to experience anger, extremism, violence, and other unspeakable emotions.
If the heart of the offering it provides is eaten by an ordinary person, the vampire will be poisoned after drinking their blood.
Most importantly, the Bacchus is very difficult to kill. Although it can be countered by the power of the elves, it cannot be killed. The only way to kill it is to have the god in its heart kill it.
It seeks death, real death.
It believed that as long as the perfect offering was found, and a portion of it was sacrificed or consumed while surrounded by the magic of its servants, the gods would descend.
The only chance to kill it is to make it believe that it has successfully summoned Dionysus, surrounded by the magic of her servants, and when it willingly surrenders itself, hoping that he will take it away from the mortal world or simply devour it.
