In American TV shows: Get stronger by spending money!

Page 126

After the classic song "Jingle Bells" finished playing, the Low Shoulders band members exchanged glances, turned around, packed their things, and slunk away from the bar.

When they arrived, they were adored; when they left, they were ignored.

On the one hand, they have become a laughing stock because of Su Shi, and on the other hand, the lead singer of Low Shoulders said that this place is a garbage countryside, which also angered the 'country folks' who originally supported them.

Although the Low Shoulders band felt ashamed of their performance when they left in disgrace, they did get money—a solid $200,000. Although they initially planned to use a method found online to sacrifice a female ghost to make the band famous and earn more money, who knows if things on the internet are true or false?

They had no choice before, but now that they have money, they don't need to risk being discovered by killing and sacrificing. Besides... with their current reputation, they probably can't fool the young girls anymore even if they wanted to continue sacrificing.

This world is not lacking in good people, nor is it lacking in bad people.

They came here with the intention of becoming famous and rich, intending to kill and sacrifice, while others here wanted to send them to hell for the $200,000 check in their hands.

Not long after the Low Shoulders band left, several people in the bar followed them out.

As for what will happen?

Hehe, that has nothing to do with the Su family.

"Let's go, it's time to go back."

Sue told Jennifer and led her out of the bar.

Jennifer didn't have a car, and Sue didn't drive.

Jennifer suggested walking back, since she had come from home earlier. However, after looking around and finding no one nearby, Su teleported her back with her.

"..."

Jennifer blinked blankly. One second they were still at the bar entrance, and the next they were suddenly back home. Was she hallucinating from being drunk?

"Ugh..." A wave of nausea suddenly surged up, and Jennifer ran straight to the bathroom without thinking.

More than ten minutes later, Jennifer came out of the bathroom and hesitated before raising her hand in front of Su's room. What had just happened was definitely not an illusion; they had really returned home from the bar entrance in an instant.

This is not something that would normally happen!

How did Su manage to do that?

Money can indeed buy you anything, but no matter how rich you are or how much you can do, you can't just appear in one place and then disappear in an instant, right?

This is no longer about whether or not you have money!

Jennifer was a little scared. She wasn't afraid that Su would hurt her, nor was she afraid of finding out that Su was an alien or an evil monster. What she was afraid of was... well, she didn't really know what she was afraid of. Perhaps it was just an instinctive fear of the unknown.

I took a deep breath and pushed the door open to go inside.

Jennifer looked up at Su, who was leaning against the headboard. Their eyes met, and she saw a pair of crimson eyes, followed by a moment of disorientation.

Then, she found herself back in the bar, where the Low Shoulders band was playing, and she and Nidi were standing at the very front of the stage like little fangirls staring at the lead singer.

Okay, she's the only one who's a fangirl.

She seemed to have forgotten about the Su family and what had happened. She vaguely remembered hearing that the Low Shoulders band was coming to perform here, so she dragged Nidi along to have some fun.

Fire, without anyone noticing, started burning in the bar. The wooden bar, the flammable alcohol, and the small flames quickly turned into a sea of ​​fire that devoured everything.

Niddy pulled her out of the bar through the bathroom vent. Screams filled the bar. Still shaken, she met the band's lead singer, who invited her to rest in their car.

She didn't know why she agreed, perhaps thinking it was a good opportunity to get closer to the band. But what happened next left her helpless; the band killed her and sacrificed her to the demons.

Then, she came back to life, turned into a monster, and started killing and eating people. Nidi found out, but didn't expose her; she just kept her distance.

Unable to bear the thought of her best friend leaving her, Jennifer turned on Neely's boyfriend and killed him.

Niddy broke off all ties with her, not only tearing off the necklace that symbolized their friendship, but also stabbing her in the heart.

She died again.

Jennifer thought everything would end with death, but she strangely found herself seemingly becoming a ghost, or perhaps experiencing a god-like perspective.

She saw Neydy being locked up in a mental hospital for killing her, saw Neydy contracting the demon virus from the bite she had inflicted, and saw her become irritable, violent, and incredibly strong, even able to float and fly.

He witnessed Niddy's escape from prison, leaving the mental hospital and finding the Low Shoulders band. He then used the same knife the Low Shoulders band had used to kill him to kill them one by one.

Jennifer smiled, a very happy smile, because no matter how their identities changed, their friendship remained unchanged!

As she laughed, Jennifer suddenly realized everything had changed. She was back in Sue's room, seeing Sue's unusual red eyes, and remembering what had happened...

"What happened?" Jennifer exclaimed in surprise, instinctively looking at Sue. "Was what I just experienced a dream or a hallucination?"

“It was your original destiny,” Su said softly.

“My original destiny? You mean Low Shoulders was supposed to kill me as a sacrifice, turning me into one of those man-eating monsters?” Jennifer cursed angrily.

Everything she had just experienced felt so real, so real that she could still feel the throbbing pain in her wounds from when she was killed.

"And you?" Jennifer asked, looking at Sue.

Perhaps because she had been a 'monster' before, Jennifer was no longer as fearful as she had been. At least, she now had the courage to look Sue in the eye and ask for the truth.

"The creator god of the ninja world, the progenitor of chakra, a celestial being—you can think of him however you like!"

"So you're a god?!"

Jennifer looked at Sue in surprise: "No wonder you're so rich!"

Is there a necessary connection between God and being rich?

You probably haven't seen how miserable other 'gods' hidden in human society are!

However, for Su, the two are indeed inevitably related, because in reality, his cheat or ability is not ninjutsu, but money!

The more you spend, the stronger you become.

If you don't have money, how do you spend it? If you can't spend money, how do you become stronger?

So what Jennifer said makes perfect sense!

“Now that I haven’t been sacrificed and haven’t turned into a monster, has my fate changed? If my fate has changed, then Nydy’s fate has changed too, and what just happened won’t happen again, right?” Jennifer asked hurriedly.

“You can call Nidi; I think you two should have a lot to talk about.”

"I'll call her right now."

Jennifer suddenly realized what was happening and turned back to her room to call Neely. She really wanted to tell Neely, "You are my best friend for life, without a doubt!"

……

P.S.: Originally, I wanted to design it so that Jennifer, out of jealousy, would go to the bar and follow the same path as when she was sacrificed by the band, thus revealing the demon. But then I thought it wouldn't be appropriate. After all, Jennifer is a member of the Sue family; she just had a date, and then she's killed and turned into a demon. I felt that wouldn't be a good way to write it.

Chapter 232 A beat-up truck on a rural road

Originally, Sue wanted things to develop like in the movie, where Jennifer would sacrifice herself, be killed, be resurrected by a demon, and then capture the demon.

But after the date, he changed his mind. Although it was a voluntary relationship and there was no sense of indebtedness, if Jennifer were killed after the date, even if she could be resurrected after the event, he would become a laughing stock.

If a girl is killed right after you go on a date, and this gets out to demons or supernatural beings, your prestige and intimidation will plummet.

The key point is that Jennifer's status is different now.

Previously, she was just someone they knew. If she were killed, neither the Su family nor anyone else would feel any impact. But now she is someone the Su family had dated. If she were killed later, it might not matter, but being killed right after a date is completely different.

It's not worth it for a demon!

Night passed quietly.

Early in the morning, Sue discovered that Jennifer was missing.

I asked Bea and found out that Jennifer went to see Neddy 14 early in the morning and said she wanted to apply for a leave of absence with Neddy.

"Are they coming with us?" Biyi asked.

Su chuckled and nodded: "Originally it was just Nidi, who, like Ava, is a child of the devil. Now it seems Jennifer will be coming along too. That's good, at least we won't waste time getting lost."

What could Biyi say?

Is it my fault for having a bad sense of direction? I'm clearly going in the right direction, but I just keep getting lost while driving!

Niddy and Jennifer's leave of absence went smoothly. The only thing Jennifer regretted was that the incident at the bar yesterday didn't spread around the school, and she didn't become the center of attention again before leaving.

But it didn't matter. She believed that once the news of her taking a leave of absence from Devil's Pot Town spread, it would definitely become the talk of the school.

"Is everything alright with your mother? Shouldn't you discuss something this important with her?" Nydy asked Jennifer hesitantly.

Jennifer shrugged dismissively: "You know I always make my own decisions, but did the Su family really leave your mother a million-dollar check?"

"Yes."

Do you think he'll give it to me?

"I do not know."

"You'll find out soon."

After the two returned to Jennifer's house and told Su about their decision to drop out of school, Su prepared to set off to leave Devil's Pot Town.

Biyi was sent to another dimension by Su to clean and take care of elderly people living alone. Nidi drove, Su sat in the passenger seat, and Jennifer sat in the cramped back seat with a wronged look on her face.

The downside of sports cars is their limited passenger space; they become too crowded. Fortunately, we're not far from Wisconsin, so we can switch cars at the Witcher's Bar and leave the Pagani to Joe.

Speaking of the Witcher Bar, Su suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a demon buried nearby. It was the co-pilot who was possessed by a demon in the Ghost in the Sky case. Su later sealed it with a sealing talisman and buried it underground. It would be good to dig it up this time and get some demon blood.

Although it was Nydi's first time driving a Pagani, she adapted very quickly. After leaving Devil's Pot and arriving on the country roads, she quickly made the most of the sports car's power.

On the deserted country road, this Pagani is truly the son of the wind, speeding along and moving with the wind!

"Honey, can't you teleport? We can just teleport wherever we want to go, why do we need to drive?" Jennifer asked, turning to the side in the back seat, somewhat puzzled.

Mrs. Su shook her head slightly: "You don't understand."

Teleportation and road trips are completely different concepts. While the outcome is important, sometimes what's truly captivating is the journey!

“I really don’t understand. Why don’t you send me to your world too? I’m quite curious about what it’s like there.” Jennifer felt she couldn’t take it anymore.

The sports car was too cramped and uncomfortable. She could manage in the passenger seat, but the back? She just couldn't stand it.

“Before I left, I left a check at your house. The amount on it is the same as the one I gave to Nidi,” Su suddenly said.

Jennifer was taken aback at first, then excitedly leaned in and kissed Su on the cheek despite the cramped space: "I think I can hold on a little longer, um, it doesn't matter how long I hold on."

Su smiled and pursed her lips: "Forget it, I'll send you to another dimension. There are lots of clothes and jewelry that I bought casually before. You can pick some out yourself. It should be more interesting than sitting here suffering."
