As for the relationship between Sue and Lisa Trinity, it is clear that Lisa Trinity does not believe that it has reached the point where she can help with work for free.
Work is work, and everything else is everything else. I work for you, so it's only right that you pay me.
Although Sue spent some time discussing Lisa Trinity's fee with her, he was not satisfied with the figure she mentioned and then gave her a figure that Lisa Trinity could not accept.
Annual salary: 1.5 million US dollars.
"Although I would love to accept this number, my current reputation in the industry and my personal abilities do not deserve this compensation. Moreover, I do not want any other reason to negate my work ability, and I do not want my years of learning to become meaningless."
Lisa Trinity looked at Sue with a mixture of apology and seriousness, then winked mischievously, saying, "You know this best."
Su was speechless. With Lisa Trinity's qualifications, it would have been very easy for her to find a job, even without any prior experience. But Lisa Trinity did not do so, which is why he had the opportunity to meet her in a small place like Liangchen Town.
After some haggling, Lisa Trinity finally became the private lawyer responsible for Sue's personal and business legal matters with an annual salary of $150,000 and various benefits.
Lisa Trinity can resign at any time, but can only officially leave after a new lawyer takes over the finances. If she performs well and demonstrates outstanding ability, she has the right to request a raise within reasonable limits.
In short, Lisa Trinity wanted to prove her worth through her abilities, rather than other factors.
"Ding-dong!"
The doorbell rang, and Su walked over to open the door, somewhat surprised.
"Su Qi?" Looking at the somewhat nervous and hurried Su Qi, Su asked with some surprise, "Are you looking for me or Tang En?"
"Can we chat for a few minutes? Just a few minutes of your time," Su Qi asked hesitantly.
"come in."
Su invited Su Qi in, and Su Qi greeted Lisa Trinity, who had a playful expression, with some embarrassment. Then she sat down in the living room with Su.
"Boss, you know I can hear what people are thinking, right?" Su Qi took a deep breath and got straight to the point: "From childhood to adulthood, I can hear what everyone is thinking, but there are only two people I can't hear. One is you, and the other is the stranger from last night."
Can you tell me why?
After Suki finished speaking, she seemed to hear something and turned around suddenly in surprise to look at Lisa Trinity.
Lisa Trinity, who was initially curious, was taken aback, then looked at Suki in surprise: "You can really hear what I'm thinking?"
“Sure!” Su Qi replied.
Sue and Lisa Trinity's expressions turned strange, because Lisa Trinity hadn't said a word, while Sue's answer was very natural.
……
P.S.: What do you all think about Cospree using multiple identities as a shadow clone? Feel free to share your opinions in the comments section. Whether you don't care and just watch the plot, or you don't like it, I can adjust accordingly.
To clarify, each volume combines the plot of the new American TV series with the main storyline of Supernatural. Occasionally, it might foreshadow later developments or briefly touch upon characters from other shows. For example, in The Vampire Diaries, although there's no plot yet, there will definitely be occasional interactions with the characters and some key points mentioned.
I'll try to write the plot in segments to avoid confusing the reader.
Chapter 114: Return the greeting to the Queen and seal off her manor!
Lisa Trinity was surprised because Suki really knew what she was thinking, while Suki was surprised or curious about what Suki had heard.
Ordinary content shouldn't elicit such a strong reaction from Su Qi.
“Okay, you might not believe it, but I’ve seen vampires!” Lisa Trinity took a breath and confessed.
To ordinary people, vampires are legendary evil creatures that don't exist at all. Lisa Trinity initially believed that vampires were just a legend, but...
“My original travel plan was to Los Angeles, California, where I stayed at an old hotel called Cortez. Everything was normal until I met the hotel owner. She seemed to mistake me for someone else. She not only dressed up as a vampire but also talked a lot about vampires, asking me if I wanted to live forever and if I wanted to become a vampire.”
"I was terrified. I ran out of the hotel in a panic, used the only money I had to take a taxi to the airport, and bought a ticket for an immediate flight. The destination was here, Louisiana."
"After I got off the plane, I didn't know where to go and I had no money. Luckily, I met a kind aunt and hitched a ride with her, which led me here in a daze."
Even with the sun shining on her, Lisa Trinity still felt a chill and shiver when she recalled the experience, but talking about it made her feel much better.
To be honest, Lisa Trinity has a pretty good mental fortitude. From last night until just now, Su didn't notice that she seemed to have just experienced something terrifying. She just felt that she seemed a bit bold, chatting with a stranger in an unfamiliar bar for a few words and then leaving with him, which was a bit unlike what she would do.
After all, the Su family has the most say in some matters, and is currently the only one with the right to speak on them.
Su originally thought she wanted to relax and have some fun before work, but now it seems that wasn't the whole reason.
"Do you believe what I'm saying?" Lisa Trinity looked at Su Shi and Su Qi.
Su Qi instinctively wanted to grin, but suddenly realized what she was doing and covered her mouth, looking at Su Shi.
When he grinned, his teeth were revealed.
Su nodded and chuckled: "I was a little hesitant at first, but since you've already seen it, there's no harm in letting you know some things."
"Vampires, werewolves, ghosts, demons, angels—these legendary supernatural creatures are all real. I even know friends who are vampires, werewolves, or demons."
Su looked at Su Qi: "The person you met last night was named Bill Compton, a vampire over a hundred years old, which is why you couldn't read his mind."
After saying that, Su looked at Lisa Trinity again: "Do you remember last night when I said I was waiting for someone, and asked you how to choose between people and things that interest you? The person I'm waiting for is him, and I want to know his purpose in coming here."
Suki and Lisa Trinity reacted differently. Suki was surprised that the person was a vampire, realizing she couldn't read vampires' thoughts. Lisa Trinity was surprised to find herself encountering a vampire again.
"Are you... are you a vampire too?" Su Qi asked tentatively.
Su shook his head: "There are many special powers in this world, some unknown and some well-known. The power I possess is called chakra, which is an energy produced by the perfect fusion of body and mind. Through special methods, it can accomplish many incredible things."
"for example……"
"Oh!"
Su's hair suddenly turned from black to white.
"Transformation Technique, one of the three most basic body techniques, allows one to transform into any form by consuming chakra. This is my current original form."
After he finished speaking, Su's body suddenly changed. Sheets of paper peeled off his body and transformed into a pair of enormous wings in the blink of an eye.
"Shikigami Dance, Angel Mode".
With a wide-open gaze, her bewitching eyes, one white and one red, exuded an eerie aura.
"Etherealization, activate!"
The space began to twist around Su Shi, and moments later, Su Qi and Lisa Trinity were shocked to find themselves in a strange, dark red space.
The distortion occurred again, and Suki and Lisa Trinity were teleported back to the room.
Su shrugged: "That's it!"
"..."
Is this what the power called chakra can do? This is... this is too incredible!
Suki and Lisa Trinity were stunned, feeling extremely shocked.
"Su Qi, do you want to work for me?" Su suddenly asked a question that Su Qi had never expected.
"Me?" Su Qi was stunned. "What can I do?"
Su said, "You can be my lie detector, help me gather intelligence, and provide assistance for my research. With proper training, you can definitely become an excellent intelligence ninja. In exchange, I can tell you about your background."
"My background? What's wrong with my background?"
“There’s a big problem with your background!” Madam Su said with a smile. “Go back and think it over. Come back to me when you’ve thought it through.”
Although Su Qi wanted to ask more questions, seeing that Su Shi had no intention of continuing the conversation, she could only leave in a daze.
She now knew why she couldn't read minds, but she had many more questions.
Suki is gone, but Lisa Trinity is still here. She is just as shocked as Suki. Although she doesn't have the troubles of her past, she is just as troubled.
“I’m going out for a bit. If you need anything, you can contact Tang En. She knows about these things too.”
After finishing her sentence, Ms. Su turned and walked out of the house.
Bill Compton has admitted that he approached him on the orders of Queen Sophie Anne, with the aim of getting his money.
Since they came for me, I should at least greet them back; it's only fair.
He has the address!
Two hours later, outside a manor in the suburbs.
Su clapped his hands, and four shadow clones appeared. Then, three of the shadow clones ran to three sides of the manor, while the other leaped into the air above the manor.
"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"
Su's main body and shadow clone simultaneously released earth flow walls. In an instant, four huge earthen walls rose from the ground and surrounded the manor. At the same time, the shadow clone in mid-air opened its mouth and spat out earth. The small clump of earth rapidly expanded and deformed in the air, and an earth flow wall of the same size as the other earth flow walls fell horizontally down.
"boom!"
The earthen walls sealed off the manor, making it look like a giant, airtight coffin from a distance!
The manor was pitch black, as if the end of the world had arrived.
People outside the villa cried out in alarm and rushed to see what had happened. Inside the villa, lights came on one by one, and a figure in a bathrobe frowned and scolded the flustered servants before cautiously pushing open the door and stepping out of the villa.
……
P.S.: Some people probably know this hotel; it's a little Easter egg that also explains Lisa Trinity's appearance and why she went home with Sue.
Chapter 115 The Queen Who Calls Me Daddy
Sophie Anne looked around warily. The solid walls tightly enclosed the manor, blocking out the sky and sunlight, completely isolating the manor from the outside world and turning it into a dead end where she could not enter or leave.
who is it? !
Who is targeting me?
Who has the ability to create such a large-scale operation to seal off my manor right under my nose?
Sophie has lived for five hundred years and has never seen, no... it should be said that she has never heard of anyone or anything that could do such a thing!
At that moment, Sophie Anne was in a complete panic.
"Ah..." A terrified scream suddenly rang out. Sophie turned her head at the sound and saw a human servant fall into the ground as if he had been grabbed by something, with only his head sticking out of the ground.
"what……"
"Don't catch me!"
"Help me, help me!"
