The advantage of not being directly involved in the plot is that there will be no major changes to the plot, and everything will proceed according to the plan of the script.
When Eddie went out and brought back Fern's breakfast and suit, the Mexican who committed the crime had already left, leaving only a body at the scene.
"Fern, my God, what should I tell your sister?" Looking at Fern sitting on the sofa, his head already penetrated by a bullet, Eddie's legs became weak and he fell to the ground.
For Eddie, Vern was not only his boss who gave him NZT-48, but also his ex-wife's brother.
Seeing Fern being shot dead at this time, Eddie felt completely confused, and tremblingly picked up his cell phone and started to call the police.
"Stop..." A sudden voice interrupted Eddie who was about to call the police.
Eddie trembled when he heard the sound. He instinctively regarded the owner of the voice as the murderer who shot Fern. He raised his hand very simply: "Don't kill me, I don't know anything and I didn't see anything!"
"hehe!"
What happened was beyond Eddie's expectation. Following the sound of footsteps, an Asian man walked up to him.
Eddie subconsciously looked at the man's hand.
What caught his eye was a huge blue sapphire ring on the opponent's right hand. There was no weapon like a pistol at all.
"Your name is Eddie, right? Vern told me about you, and you are his sister's ex-husband. By the way, let me introduce myself. I am Vern's superior. You can call me the sponsor!" This person walked in.
The man was Wu Ming, who was very unscrupulous and made himself Fern's superior in exchange for Eddie's trust.
Eddie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that Wu Ming claimed to be the sponsor and Fern's superior.
Although he had not lowered his guard yet, he still nodded reluctantly and asked: "Financial Master, do you know who killed Fern?"
"I know, a group of Mexicans wanted to cooperate with Fern, but Fern didn't agree!" As Wu Ming said, he glanced at Fern's body, and his eyes fell on the other party's feet, where there was a blue gem.
Obviously, Vern was feeling the charm of this gem when he was shot. The very principled Mexican killers, except for rummaging for the NZT-48 they needed, did not even touch the gem or the cash in the room.
This is a very typical Mexican vendetta. In the ancient tradition of Mexican gangs, they will not touch the property of the deceased unless that thing is their target. Otherwise, even if there is a gold mountain here, these people will not touch it.
.
"Can I ask, will you avenge Fern?" Facing Wu Ming, the financial backer, Eddie hesitated to speak, still thinking about revenge.
After hearing this, Wu Ming shook his head and said simply: "No, I am the financial owner, not the messenger of revenge!"
Hearing such words, Eddie seemed a little depressed. After being silent for a while, he said, "Then, do you have that thing?"
"Haha..." Wu Ming smiled softly, and under Eddie's gaze, he picked up the sapphire at Fern's feet and put it in his pocket.
Afterwards, Wu Ming walked a few steps quickly, went straight to the oven in the room, and took out a large bag of NZT-48 from the oven.
A large bag of NZT-48, containing at least a hundred pills, was lying quietly in the bag.
Wu Ming opened the bag, took out two pills and put them in his pocket, then threw the rest to Eddie.
With NZT-48 in hand, happiness came so suddenly that Eddie's breathing became rapid.
After all, the matter of revenge for Fern was just his impulse. The reason Eddie came here today was because his biggest wish was to get new drugs, because he had fallen in love with this thing.
"Do you like the feeling of a waste material turning into a genius?" Looking at the giggling Eddie, Wu Ming leaned against the TV and asked slowly.
"I like it, it helped me find my own life, I really love it to death!"
Eddie spoke subconsciously, then raised his head suddenly, looked at Wu Ming's half-smiling expression, and asked hesitantly: "I get so much, what price do I have to pay?"
Wu Ming smiled happily. The reason why he chose to appear in front of Eddie and pretended to be Fern's superior was because he was waiting for Eddie's words.
Eddie, the protagonist of this world, does not have any special abilities, but he has a recessive gene that is adapted to the NZT-48 drug.
Although Wu Ming doesn't know if such a person exists in this world. But it is certain that Eddie is definitely the most special one, and he is of great value to the development of NZT-50.
"In this bag, there are 123 pills of NZT-48, which can give you 123 days of new life. The price you need to pay is to provide me with a drop of blood sample every day. I think this is not
Difficult!" Wu Ming spoke slowly and stated his conditions.
"That's all?" Eddie was a little unbelievable. It wasn't that the condition was too difficult, but that it was too simple.
He could imagine that since these drugs were so effective, they must be valuable. But Wu Ming only asked for a drop of blood sample, and giving such a precious thing to himself was almost the same as giving it away for free.
"Simple, no, it's just that our angles are different. Remember our agreement, we will meet again!" Wu Ming smiled at Eddie, turned around and walked out of the room, leaving Eddie alone.
Stunned in place.
After parting ways with Eddie, Wu Ming went to Wall Street in New York to visit some wealthy people.
"I'm looking for Mr. Cady!"
Standing at the front desk of an investment bank, Wu Ming stopped a bank executive and asked him to meet his boss by name.
The executive was a middle-aged black man. He smiled at Wu Ming and asked, "Do you have an appointment? Mr. Kaidi only accepts visits by appointment!"
"I don't need to make an appointment..." The ring on Wu Ming's hand exuded a charming luster, attracting all the other party's attention.
After a moment, the black executive's eyes became confused and he whispered: "Okay sir, President Kaidi is in the president's office on the 23rd floor. I will take you to see him right now."
Under the leadership of the black executive, Wu Ming went straight to the president's office without any hindrance.
Finally, under the watchful eyes of two security personnel, the president's office was opened.
"How did you come in? I don't know you?" Kaidi, who was sitting behind the boss's chair, combed his pale hair and asked strangely.
"The Soul-stealing Curse..." Wu Ming raised his hand and pointed, and the light of magic flashed past and enveloped Kaidi's body.
The next second, the doubt on Kaidi's face turned into a respectful smile, and there was no longer any questioning.
As time passed, Wu Ming continued to walk through Wall Street, visiting rich people one after another.
"I want to see your president, Mr. Christian!"
"I want to see your president, Mr. Weilun..."
"I want to see...I want to see...I want to..."
It has to be said that these rich people who are used to enjoying themselves have long lost the perseverance they had during their entrepreneurial days. In the face of Wu Ming's soul-stealing curse, none of them can persist for more than three seconds, and they will be controlled easily.
Wu Ming moved very quickly. In one morning, he controlled more than a dozen wealthy people on Wall Street. Moreover, this was because many wealthy people would not come to the company in the morning, otherwise the people being controlled would be even more
many.
It is said that those who control Wall Street will control the United States, and those who control the United States will control the entire world.
This statement may be open to debate, but Wu Ming can feel that through the dozen or so wealthy people he controls, he has the power to influence the structure of the capital market. More importantly, he can find hundreds of scientists at any time to provide information for himself.
Develop what you want to develop.
"Notify the presidents to convene a hundred scientists to set up a new laboratory! In addition, send an invitation to Dr. Kane and say that the funder is ready and welcomes his visit at any time!" Sitting in a luxurious office,
Wu Ming looked at the blue sky outside the window and said without looking back.
