Lu Sheng put down a glass of water on the table, and then a bunch of food, including dry bread and cheese bought from the convenience store downstairs, and some chocolates from brands he had never heard of.
The gray paper shell unique to convenience stores adds up to a lot of calories.
Since we want to truly achieve a qualitative change, we naturally need to be fully prepared.
Lu Sheng took off his shirt and looked in the mirror. He was much stronger than Jack before, but he was still far from reaching his limit.
Toot, toot.
There was a crazy squealing of car horns outside.
Lu Sheng walked over and opened the curtains to take a look. The whole of London was shrouded in a layer of gray-black fog. Through the fog, he could see that two cars downstairs seemed to have collided. The drivers were pressing each other hard against the cars.
trumpet.
Occasionally there were people who stopped to watch on the roadside, but most of them left quickly with hurried expressions and numb faces.
ah!
Suddenly a scream came from the dark city in the distance, it was a woman's.
Such sounds are very common and can often be heard in London after dark.
"Some homeless man scared a passerby, or the passerby had an accident on the road, or even was raped."
Lu Sheng felt calm. Such a thing would be seen in the next day's newspaper soon. London in this world is too chaotic.
“It’s time to start”
Boom, boom, boom.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Jack, a letter from your home."
He's the postman near the police station here.
"Thank you." He walked over to open the door and took two letters from the postman.
After closing the door, he tore open an envelope at will.
The above is an inquiry written by Jack's father, Jack, about a murder occurring upstairs in the apartment he rented and his concerns about it.
Also, his sister at home is getting engaged soon, and he is asked to rush home as soon as possible in the middle of next month to attend the engagement ceremony.
Finally, the Sophora japonica flowers that Jack planted before have bloomed, so you can go back and take a look. And the old dog Henry injured his leg yesterday. There are sesame and mung beans behind it.
Putting down the letter, Lu Sheng tore open another letter sent from Berlin.
The sender is Kelly King.
This is Jack's biological mother and her ex-wife after she divorced Jack Sr.
The letter also mentioned his concern about a murder occurring upstairs. At the same time, if possible, he hoped that he could give up his career as a police officer and work in some relatively safe position.
This kind of persuasion was not uncommon in Jack's memory, but this was the first time it was so sincere and detailed.
Her mother, Kelly, carefully mentioned the recent cases of several police officers who died in the line of duty in Berlin, and repeatedly persuaded Jack to go to her side. She also mentioned that Germany and France were not dealing with each other recently, and there was a high possibility of political disputes. She hoped that
Jack should go there as soon as possible.
Compared with Old Jack's letter, mother Kelly King's letter seems colder. Although the feelings revealed between the lines are very real, it fully reflects the personality characteristics of the two people.
Old Jack is very nostalgic, warm, and full of concern for the people and things around him.
Kelly King, on the other hand, only pays attention and attention to the things she cares about, and doesn't mention anything about those around her. She seems even colder.
Putting down the letter, Lu Sheng quickly walked to the desk and wrote a reply to each of them.
Old Jack's side is fine, but mother Kelly King's side is different. Some words need to be carefully considered, Kelly is not someone to be fooled.
And the original reason why Jack didn't want to go there was mainly because he didn't want to suddenly insert himself into his mother's circle.
She is divorced, has her own life circle, and is far, far away from him.
She has her own brand new family, her own brand new interpersonal relationships, and her own completely different living habits, atmosphere, and laughter.
It was a circle that he couldn't fit into, and he didn't want to fit into.
He is not young anymore and he just wants to find a good girl, get married and have children, and spend the rest of his life.
This was Jack's original deep thought.

************
Berlin.
Inside a milk-white manor with a typical domed palace style.
Kelly Jin held an umbrella and walked slowly on the grass. She pulled her long blond hair and looked into the distance with her narrow eyes.
In the eyes of outsiders, she is a standard strong woman, successful in her career, elegant and intellectual, and has no shortcomings except for her cold personality and strong abilities.
But only she knows that she still has nostalgia for that family in her heart.
Not to that person, but to his biological son who was pregnant in ten months.
Ever since she was found to have lost her fertility due to a car accident a long time ago, she has paid more and more attention to her only son, Jack.
Now as I get older, this emphasis becomes stronger and stronger.
"Boss, is this still about Jack?" A woman with a brown ponytail approached from a short distance and brought her a cocktail.
"Well, before Jack became his little police officer, I thought it was enough for him to just have fun, but I didn't expect that he would be in such big trouble now."
Kelly Jin replied calmly, she didn't look like someone close to fifty at all. Her skin was well maintained. With exquisite makeup, she looked no different from someone in her thirties.
"Jack is also thinking about you. After all, you are no longer the same person as before. He doesn't want to drag you down." The woman shook her head slightly and persuaded.
As early as more than ten years ago, Kelly Jin remarried the now big Berlin businessman Kabo, and truly became one of the leaders of the Kabo family industry. Compared with the bitter days before, Kelly is now completely mature.
Is a member of upper class society.
And the most important thing is that she married Capo when she owned an estate that was not much inferior to that of the Capo family. It was a marriage of equals.
So she has a lot of say in the Capo family.
"I also understand, I just feel like this is unfair to Jack. He should also have a share of what Selina and Braun can enjoy." Kelly King said calmly.
Selina and Braun are both the biological children of businessman Capo. She treats them as her own children.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. Selena said she was going to Werna to play. Are you leaving now?" Kelly King asked, taking a sip of her drink.
"Already set off. In addition, the expenses for Master Braun's self-funded study abroad at the University of Aransco have also been put in place and are ready to go at any time." The woman replied quickly.
"Let's see what else he lacks. In addition, I will give him another five thousand pounds per month from my account. You can't treat yourself badly in school. You still need to have basic social interaction." Kelly said to her two non-biological children.
Also very good.
"OK."
"Also, during this year-end holiday, let them prepare to get in touch with their brother." Kelly also knew that the gap between the two sides was a bit big. The circles here and Jack's were completely parallel.
But she didn't want her son to be isolated.
"Remember to pick him up during the holidays."
Although Jack seemed very awkward every time he came over, Kelly still decided to let the three children get closer.
That's what she decided.
"Okay." The woman was not surprised. Anyway, she invited Jack to attend the family dinner here almost every year. She was just not very happy.

***********
"There's something wrong." Lu Sheng manipulated some of the earth's energy to recover and quickly nourished his body.
He was about to start strengthening the Qi and Blood Art of this body when he suddenly had an idea and wanted to try to use his body and soul to connect with the beacon of the Heavenly Demon Realm.
Every time he comes, his body is actually qualified to use power to contact the beacon from the demon world.
But just now, on a whim, he contacted the Demonic Beacon, but found strangely that the beacon was missing?
"What's going on!? Ban Sai shouldn't make such a stupid mistake!" Lu Sheng's heart sank, and he finally felt where the uneasiness in his heart came from since he came to this world.
I have successively changed more than ten contact methods, divine patterns, runes, formation superposition, earth energy to explore the rules of space, and searched for residual traces of space. I have used various methods, but unfortunately there is still no response.
The previously agreed beacon response mark has no answer at all at this time.
After all the trouble, Lu Sheng's face became terrifyingly gloomy.
Can't go back.
Not only is there no beacon to go back, but I can't even leave this space.
The entire space seemed to have become extremely solid in an instant, completely incomparable to when I first entered.
This feeling of being unable to get in or out reminded Lu Sheng of the original leader Wu Ding for the first time.
"This is definitely no accident!" Lu Sheng took a deep breath, "But no matter what, let's stabilize ourselves in this world first."
The power system of this world is no different from the ordinary earth world.
All normal energy is difficult to mobilize, and there is simply not as much and abundant energy in the air as there is in other worlds.
"Dark blue."
Lu Sheng's expression became solemn.
Chi.
The light blue interface pops up instantly.
Lu Sheng's soul scanned the internal state of his body, adjusted his breath and relaxed it, and made his blood more stable.
"Let's get started." He focused his eyes on the modification button below and pressed it gently.
Then his eyes quickly returned to the bottom box.
‘Qi-Blood Art: First Level (All attributes are improved by one level. Each attribute is increased by 0.1 at each level)’
"This first-level improvement, for each attribute, is actually a first-level improvement of about 10%. So now that I have earth energy as nourishment and repair, I want to see if I can increase it to the limit."
Lu Sheng calmed down his somewhat irritable thoughts.
"Promote Qi and Blood Art to the second level."
With a click, the Qi and Blood Jue frame suddenly blurred.
Two seconds later, the frame quickly became clear. A trace of divine power surged out of the chest, quickly turning into countless filaments and flying to all parts of the body.
Lu Sheng could clearly feel that his whole body was expanding and getting stronger. There was a slight itching feeling all over his body, including his internal organs. The rapid nourishment of earth energy assisted in repairing the strengthened damage.
ten minutes later
"I've become stronger again." Lu Sheng shook his hands and clearly felt that his body had improved a lot.
"It looks like we are far from reaching the limit. Let's continue the Qi and Blood Art and raise it to the third level."
Soon, another trace of divine power quickly surged out of his chest, and then turned into countless filaments and distributed throughout his body.
This time, the body seemed to have adapted a little and improved faster. Lu Sheng could even hear the subtle sizzling sound of the physical body being continuously nourished and strengthened.
