Chapter 649 Wonderful Night on the West Coast (Part 2)
Los Angeles, the City of Angels located in southwest California, has almost the same background as Beach City. They are both large cities that developed during the gold rush.
The Spaniards call this place the Kingdom of Heaven, which is not unreasonable. The climate and scenery here are completely different from those on the east coast. They are romantic, soothing and full of emotion.
San Pedro Bay and Santa Monica Bay, with their beautiful beaches, are tourist destinations for countless West Coast residents. The Mexican-style streets and parks retain the ethnic customs of the last century. The city parks and concert halls are full of sentiment, while also
There is the famous Hollywood.
On a street not far from Disneyland in Los Angeles, an old-fashioned building with a clear Spanish style stands on the corner. A shining sign hangs on the first floor of the building, which conflicts with the style of the building, but it forms a unique atmosphere.
A kind of beauty that intersects time.
The name of this bar is very simple, consisting of only three letters, which is LUX, which can be understood as the abbreviation of Lucifer's name.
Under the light of the light sign, there is no security guard dressed in black, strong and wearing sunglasses like an ordinary bar. This bar looks extra quiet. It is close to the wall of the building and you can't hear the music inside.
.
With a "squeak" sound, the slightly old wooden door was pushed open, and what came into view was a somewhat dark corridor, but as long as you walked in for a few steps, you could see the neon-like light.
The high heels stepped on the metal floor, making a faint trembling sound. The female bartender at the front desk paused for a moment, and her eyes lit up with a faint light.
She tapped her fingers lightly on the countertop. After a while, a figure in a black suit appeared on the stand on the second floor of the bar. He held a glass of red wine in his hand and turned to the sensual and lustful people on the first floor of the bar.
All the men and women can be seen.
"Delilah? Why are you here at this time? Why are you planning to surprise me?" Lucifer smiled and hugged a beautiful woman.
The two of them walked to the sofa next to them and sat down. The woman named Delilah smiled and said, "Come on, you can only say this kind of thing. When I chased you, you were as shy as a little boy."
."
"Hey, don't be like this, give me some face on my territory." Lucifer leaned on the back of the sofa, lit a cigarette, smiled and waved.
"Time flies so fast, doesn't it?" Delilah also took out a cigarette from her handbag and said while smoking: "The days when I was drinking wine seemed to be just around the corner, but I can have
I have to thank you for everything today..."
"We are friends, there is no need to say such things." Lucifer took a drag on his cigarette and said, "When I first came here, it was you who made me familiar with Los Angeles and introduced me to Panxia Bar. Of course I
I should repay you..."
"You don't have to do so much." Delilah touched Lucifer's knee with her hand and said, "I know that people like you can accomplish anything even without me."
Lucifer looked at Delilah's expression and asked with some confusion: "You look a little haggard? What's wrong? Are you tired from preparing for the new album? You can come here to relax, you are always welcome here."…
Delilah shook her head, with a trace of confusion between her eyebrows. She said: "Actually, I feel a little confused. I know that my life is much better now than before, but..."
At this moment, Lucifer paused. He turned his head and looked at the entrance of the bar. An unexpected figure walked in. The figure was also wearing a suit, but was holding an umbrella in his hand. He was in Los Angeles.
In the mild night, it seemed a little strange.
In the bar, the cold neon lights hit Schiller's face. He took off his glasses, walked to Lucifer, knocked the ground with the tip of his umbrella, and said: "It seems that I came at the wrong time, excuse me."
For your date with this lady..."
"I'm rude, madam... You seem to be a singer? What was the name of the previous album? Red Hot?"
"It's blue and hot, sir." Delilah nodded to Schiller, who smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm not very good at pop music."
Lucifer pointed to the single sofa next to him. After Schiller sat down, Lucifer introduced to Delilah: "My friend Schiller, a psychology professor, is an old-fashioned person who loves listening to classical music. Don't pay attention."
He, he doesn’t understand what is popular at all.”
Delilah smiled and said: "Of course, the vast majority of tasteful music appreciators and critics don't like pop. Unfortunately, I haven't read any books and I really can't understand so many musicians. Otherwise, I would
I also want to enjoy some classical music.”
"I also don't like some classical music critics. They take theoretical knowledge too seriously and forget the most important function of music, which is to make people happy." Schiller waved his hand and said.
"Really? Then I'm a little interested."
Delilah is worthy of being a resident singer and waitress in major bars. She is very good at talking and always smiles when she talks, making people feel happy.
The three of them had a very interesting chat, ranging from music to psychology. Lucifer leaned on his chair and said with a smile: "Delilah, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Do you know how expensive this guy's consultation fee is?"
?”
"If you look at today's psychology textbooks, you can see his name on them. If you want such a person to enlighten you, I'm afraid you won't have enough money for a whole album..."
Delilah covered her mouth with her gloved hand, looked at Schiller in surprise, then stood up, shook hands with him and said, "Oh my god, I didn't expect that you are a famous psychologist.
…”
"He always likes to exaggerate. I'm just an ordinary university professor." Schiller shook his head. At this time, the bartender came to deliver the wine. Schiller took a sip of the cold wine and felt a little relaxed.
"Can I take the liberty of asking? Which university do you work at?" Delilah asked curiously.
"Gotham University."
Delilah was in awe and said: "You are indeed a famous psychologist, you must be a good professor..."
Lucifer was already laughing so hard, he said: "Everyone who has heard of Gotham will be like this... Hey! Friends! Look! There is a Gothamite here!
"
Schiller stood up and covered his mouth. Fortunately, the music in the bar was loud and no one heard Lucifer's shout...
Schiller chatted with Delilah for a while and enlightened her. After all the wine in the glass was finished, Delilah stood up, took a deep breath, patted her clothes, and said: "Really
Thank you very much, Professor, I feel much better..."
"I still have to prepare for the signing of the new album, so I won't interrupt you for now. We'll talk another day." As she said that, Delilah turned back and winked at the two of them, but at this moment, Schiller stopped her.
explain:
"By the way, you should go through the back door. When I came in from the front door, I saw several cars, all occupying the parking space in front of the door. I was still wondering who they were before, but now it seems that it may be you.
fans, if you go out like this, you might be blocked by them."
Delilah was startled, then thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, I'm in a hurry, which way should I go?"
Lucifer pointed to the door next to him, and Delilah left in a hurry. Lucifer walked back to the bar, and Schiller followed him and sat in front of the bar. Schiller looked at Lucifer and said:
"We haven't seen each other for so long, aren't you going to give your old friend a welcome ceremony? How about mixing me a drink?"
"Didn't you say you lost your memory?" Lucifer turned around to sort out the wine on the wine cabinet and check today's bill.
At this time, it was almost late at night, and some young men and women having fun began to walk out the door one after another. Even the waiters were getting ready to get off work. Schiller glanced at the flow of people moving towards the main entrance, and then said:
"Don't you claim to be omniscient and omnipotent? Can't you tell whether I really have amnesia?"
"I don't like to use this ability on my friends." Lucifer took a wine glass and wiped it while saying: "Unless necessary, I will not use any special abilities. If I enjoy omniscience and omnipotence, then I will not come
This is a bar."
Schiller observed Lucifer's movements, and he had to admit that this son of God had a unique charm. For Schiller, the part of him between divinity and humanity was the most attractive.
Whether they are gods among humans or humans among gods is a question that every creature with superpowers must consider when living in the human world.
Clark feels that he is a human being, but at the same time he does not deny his god-like power, but intends to use this power to help others.
But Lucifer, he chose to give up using his power and become a real person, just like ordinary people. He would hang up and stand aside if it had nothing to do with me. As long as it had nothing to do with me, he would just sit on the sidelines.
This kind of psychology makes Schiller very interesting. Obviously, this is also a very good research object. Although it is difficult to translate into a paper, it can also pave the way for subsequent research on Clark's psychology.
"So you'd rather stand there cleaning the glasses than mix me a drink?"
I believe many people have noticed that Schiller is repeating the same trick. He used this trick against Bruce at the beginning, forcing him to do some meaningless things during the conversation to establish the basis for mental control.
"Yeah, this cup can bring me $8 in sales tomorrow, what about you? You don't even pay for the drinks." Lucifer said with a "sneer", not being fooled at all.
"Is this how you treat your Pope? You don't even pay me a salary and I can't even have a free glass of wine?"
"Then do you have any achievements that you can show off?" Lucifer looked at Schiller and asked: "How many believers have you developed?"
"Are you sure you want me to develop followers?" Schiller asked.
The movement of Lucifer's hand paused for a moment, and he continued: "Forget it, what do I want believers to do? Let them come to me to pray for big things every day? Do you know why God left heaven? It's because of human beings
It’s so annoying.”
"They want to take a vacation every day, so they tell God every day how hard they work, so God really thinks that the work is very hard and goes to take a vacation. If you understand human thoughts all the year round, you will be polluted by their thoughts. This
That’s why I don’t like to use mind reading.”
Lucifer changed the topic again, but Schiller didn't panic at all. He just wiped his face, then showed a sad expression and said:
"I have a student who is very smart and talented, but he has a very tragic life experience. His parents unfortunately passed away when he was a child. I came today to ask you, since you have the resurrection
