Exorcist's Self-Cultivation-Chapter 710 - 687 you have been seen through by a woman
Chapter 710: 687, you have been seen through by a woman. Chapter 710: 687, you have been seen through by a woman. The next day.
New York City…
Du Wei woke up early in the morning to find a clear sky, the blue expanse endless, with the warm sun hanging high, neither blinding nor too gentle.
“I almost forgot how long it’s been since I looked up at the sky.”
What he meant was that it had been a long time since he had lived the life of a normal person.
In the past, when he said such things, his tone would be very weary.
But now, he didn’t even feel weary anymore.
He glanced around.
...
The Envelope had already left, searching through New York for that fake shadow.
As for Du Wei, he was indifferent.
Whether the Envelope could find it or not, it wouldn’t affect his plan.
All he needed to do now was to wait like a hunter in the darkness for the prey to appear, and then pull the trigger directly.
Of course.
Du Wei was very clear.
The other fake self must also be scheming against him with the same mindset.
However, it couldn’t possibly know that he understood it better than it knew itself.
As he walked out of the bedroom,
Du Wei suppressed these thoughts in his heart.
As he reached the bathroom, he casually glanced at Ryan’s room.
Last night, Ryan, Tom, and Father Tony had rested at his place.
They seemed to be sleeping in one room, saying it was convenient for sharing special techniques.
Inside the room,
Tom and the others were sound asleep.
However, aside from Ryan sleeping on the bed, Tom and Father Tony were lying on the floor without blankets, shivering in their sleep.
Seeing this, Du Wei chuckled and shook his head as he walked away, “Special techniques? I think the three of them are dreaming in daylight.”
He had never believed in Tom’s special techniques.
As a former forensic expert, Du Wei had some understanding of human physiology.
There is no way a person can last that long just by technique.
Only Father Tony and Ryan would believe that.
After freshening up,
Du Wei went downstairs and sat in the living room.
About an hour later,

Tom and the others gradually awoke.
“Bro, I’m going to look for construction workers with Ryan and Father Tony, you want to join us for breakfast? It’s on me!”
Tom said, yawning, too lazy to even brush his teeth or wash his face.
Du Wei responded indifferently, “You guys go ahead, just let me know how much you need, I still have plenty here.”
Tom shrugged, “Alright, we’re off then.”
“Boss, see ya.”
Ryan waved cheerfully.
Du Wei looked exasperated and cautioned, “Remember, don’t go to the Red Light District. Rebuilding Hill Psychiatric Hospital is our priority, nothing is more important than that.”
Ryan agreed wholeheartedly, “Don’t worry, boss. When Ryan is on the job, you can put your full trust in me.”
Du Wei grunted, “If anyone bullies you, tell me.”
Ryan scratched his head, looking embarrassed, “Someone bullied me yesterday. I was at the bar drinking, and someone actually asked me for money. Then, Tom made a phone call and had that person tossed into jail. If anyone else is foolish enough to trouble me, they’ll definitely end up behind bars.”
Du Wei gasped,
His view of Tom had changed.
Tom hurriedly explained, “Don’t listen to Ryan’s nonsense. I haven’t been arresting people without cause; I had enough evidence to suspect that person might be a criminal. I always act reasonably.”
Du Wei waved his hand in resignation, “I don’t want to continue this topic, just get going.”
Anyway, Tom has been up to no good for not just a day or two.
After all, Du Wei himself is no saint either.
As they say, birds of a feather flock together.
Anyone from Du Wei’s camp or Evil Spirit would be fair game for a firing squad without any risk of an innocent being shot.
Tom and his two companions walked off with their arms around each other’s shoulders.
Meanwhile, Du Wei stayed at home.
He made a call to Alex.
He had returned to New York the day before yesterday, and had been dealing with things here, so he hadn’t had the energy to get in touch.
Soon enough,
the call connected.
Alex’s pleasing voice came from the other end of the phone, “Dr. Du Wei, I’m really surprised you would even call me.”
Du Wei felt awkward.
To be honest, he really hadn’t contacted Alex enough.
So, he blurted out, “Dear, listen to me, I can explain.”
Alex scoffed, “Explain? What’s there to explain? Do we even need explanations in our relationship?”
Du Wei, embarrassed, said, “You know, I just got to New York yesterday. I was planning to call you after settling Ryan in, but then, Ryan ran into trouble.”
Alex, surprised, asked, “What happened to him?”
Du Wei had already told Alex about his relationship with Ryan.
Therefore, out of love for Du Wei, Alex also felt a lot of sympathy for Ryan, the psychiatric patient.
Du Wei sighed and said helplessly, “Ryan was attacked when he went out, and I spent all of last night dealing with it.”
Alex, concerned, asked, “Was he badly hurt?”
Du Wei replied nonchalantly, “It’s not serious. You know, I’m a doctor; I won’t let anything happen to him.”
Alex was puzzled, “Aren’t you a psychiatrist?”
Du Wei said as if it were obvious, “But that doesn’t conflict with my medical skills. I’ve even set bones for people before.”
Alex thought that made sense and asked, “Okay then, I forgive you, but about Ryan getting beaten up, what about the person who hit him? Did you teach him a lesson?”
Du Wei pretended to be annoyed as he said, “I’ve already had Tom throw the guy in jail. He’ll be locked up for several months at least, otherwise, there’s no way I’d let him walk free.”
Alex finally nodded in satisfaction, “That’s more like it. But speaking of which, what did you send my father last night?”
“He rushed off to the family’s mountain with his men in the middle of the night, saying he needed to help you decipher some information.”
Du Wei awkwardly said, “Oh, that. It’s nothing much, just that I got hold of a treasure map and asked your father to help me decode it. You know, he has a lot of professionals.”
“Oh, I’ll remind him about it later then.”
“Mm…”
…
An hour later.
In the Wittebach family home.
Alex hung up the phone.
She snorted coldly.
Next to her, a woman in her forties stood by, speaking very awkwardly, “Miss Alex, we have confirmed that Mr. Ryan, Tom, and Father Tony did go to the Red Light District yesterday, and it seems that something indeed happened, and someone indeed got sent to prison.”
Alex said with dissatisfaction, “I almost believed his stupid story, good thing he didn’t go to the Red Light District, or I’d be furious.”
The woman asked, “Miss, what do you mean by that?”
Alex replied, “Never mind him for now. He’s my man; if he doesn’t want to share too much with me, he must have his reasons, and it’s been that way for a while now.”
“By the way, have you heard anything about that sword I’m interested in?”
The woman answered, “We have news about the sword, but it’s currently in a museum in England, and we’re still negotiating.”
Alex sighed, “Alright, I’ll go there in person.”
The so-called sword was naturally Minette’s sidearm in the past.
Clearly, Alex was engaging in some activity Du Wei didn’t know about.
It seemed to be related to Minette.
