Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

When she got home, Fali had already prepared dinner.

But Fali is not the kind of good wife and mother, and their relationship is still the same as in the past.

More casual, more relaxed... Of course, they are also more intimate when no outsiders are around.

After dinner, both of them sat on the doorframe of the backyard with a bottle of beer.

Enjoying the comfort and tranquility, Baima's injury is much better. The gauze has been removed, but there is still a shocking wound on the abdomen. As long as there is no strenuous exercise, the wound will not open.

Walter has become familiar with them in the past two days. He is like a little brother, following them every day.

However, the yard is a bit small, and they are all big guys.

In the past, when there were only Beelzebub, Carrie and Wanda, I didn’t feel it.

But now that the three big guys, Obitos, Heima, and Baima, are here, they can hardly run away.

Just then, Bant and Ken arrived, also leading a dog, also an Alaskan.

They didn't go through the front door, but came around the back yard.

"Chen, Fali."

"You also have a dog? Can you take care of it?"

"I can't help it. When I see your dog, I want one too." Bant said with a smile.

"What's it called?"

"Bobby." Ken replied, "But Bobby seems a little afraid of your dog."

"Maybe you're not familiar with it yet." Bobby is one size smaller than Walter, but he is still a big dog.

If you just pull the bobby out, it can be considered to have grown larger.

But compared with black horse and white horse, there is a big difference.

"Chen, I'm here to thank you for introducing a good job to Mary."

"Please, don't come and thank me every time we meet."

"I heard that you bought the land in Mirror Lake, right?"

"Um."

When Chen Zhao had this idea, Bant was the first to know about it.

At that time, Chen Zhao also entrusted Bant to help him inquire about the situation of this land.

"So you're going to build a house there?"

"right."

"What about the furniture after the house is built? Do you plan to buy it ready-made?"

"Bant, do you have anything to propose?"

"An old friend and I plan to open a carpentry workshop. If you need it, you can contact me and I can give you the best price."

"No problem at all."

Since it is a new home, most of the furniture must be custom-made, rather than buying brands with fixed specifications.

At this time, the phone in the living room rang. Chen Zhao stood up and said, "I'm going to answer the phone."

When Chen Zhao picked up the phone, he found that it was Sienna calling.

"Chen, come here to help. I'm at Los Angeles University."

"What's wrong?"

"Didn't I tell you that there is my client here? I have been cleaning up the evil spirits here these days, but the number of evil spirits has increased again, and it is more powerful than I imagined. Now my client and I We’re all trapped here and can’t get out.”

"Okay, send me the exact location and I'll go there immediately."

Chen Zhao put down his phone and walked outside: "Fali, send me a ride. Bante, I'm sorry, I have a client looking for me and I need to go out."

"Okay, let's go first, bye."

…

Chen Zhao got into Fali's car. He didn't bring any other pets with him. It was enough for Lao Hei to be with him.

Fali asked: "What happened?"

"Sienna may be in trouble and in danger."

"What is it this time? A demon? Or an evil spirit?"

Although Fali encountered a ghost ship, she obviously did not leave any shadow.

Fali is still very passionate about supernatural events.

Of course, that's assuming it didn't happen to her.

When they arrived outside the campus, Chen Zhao was a little worried about Fali: "Fali, why don't you stay in the car?"

"It's okay. I feel more uneasy if I stay alone in the car. If I stay with you, you will protect me."

"Okay." Chen Zhao and Fali entered the campus.

Although it seemed a bit awkward to bring a group of pets, there were not many people walking around the school at this time.

When they arrived at the old campus, Chen Zhao and Fali saw a person standing at the entrance of the old campus.

"What are you two doing here? This is off limits."

"Are you the administrator here?" Chen Zhao looked up and down at the person in front of him.

Chen Zhao felt that the person in front of him seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

Smith was also looking at Chen Zhao in front of him, and he felt the same.

It seems that this person has been seen somewhere.

"I am a university lecturer here. There have been many accidents in the old campus and it has been closed for a long time."

"Then why are you here?" Chen Zhao looked at Smith and said.

"I was passing by here." Smith often travels here and there, and occasionally meets some students or teachers from the school. He has long been able to deal with it calmly.

"Ah, I remembered."

Smith was startled by Chen Zhao's shouting.

"We have met before." Chen Zhao shouted.

"When have we met?"

"Did you forget that you lost a coin on the street a few days ago?"

Smith frowned. After Chen Zhao reminded him, Smith also remembered.

He planned to throw away the gold coin that day, but Chen Zhao returned it to him.

"Oh, it's you...how have you been lately?"

Chen Zhao was stunned for a moment. He was not familiar with him. Why did he ask?

"My friend is in there and he seems to be in trouble, so we need to go inside."

"Your friend? Are you in trouble?" Smith frowned: "What trouble?"

"Maybe he injured his foot after falling." Chen Zhao said, "We are here to help him."

"Okay then...be careful when you go in."

Smith did not stop Chen Zhao and Fali anymore. Fali looked back at Smith: "This person feels weird."

"Do you feel that way too?"

"I can't tell." Fali shook her head.

"Old Hei, did you find anything weird about that person?" Chen Zhao asked Lao Hei.

"Yeah, weird." Lao Hei's answer was the same as Fali's.

"What's weird?"

"Can't tell."

"Why do you and Fali have the same answer?"

"You can't tell what's weird about him, and neither can I. There's nothing strange about that."

“Let’s go, don’t keep Sienna waiting too long.”

The two of them and Lao Hei came to the old building. Lao Hei took a look at the old building: "There are many evil spirits, and they are all weird."

"Why is it weird?"

"Evil spirits stay in the human world because of their obsessions, but these evil spirits have no obsession. They are trapped in the human world, not because they want to stay in the human world."

"Someone killed them?"

Lao Hei shook his head: "No, they look more like natural deaths."
