I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 232 There is an old Chinese saying
The next morning.

There was a knock at the Winchester brothers' bedroom door.

"Sir, it's breakfast time."

Dean and Sam on the bed woke up quickly after hearing the noise.

Knowing that there was something strange about this family, they remained alert even when sleeping, not giving the other party any chance to take advantage of them.

Judging from the voice, the person who called them down for dinner was the black maid they had met yesterday.

Dean and Sam still haven't figured out each other's and the black gardener's position in this manor.

They were observant and realized through the details of their daily life, diet, work and rest that this family was a typical centrist supremacist.

But it was precisely such a family that could get along peacefully with two colored servants without showing any arrogance or contempt.

It was clear that they had shown a strong sense of superiority when facing Su Fan and their two brothers before.

The two of them packed up briefly and came to the restaurant in the manor.

Here, the Armitage family has been waiting for a long time.

"How did you two sleep here last night?"

At the dining table, Dean Armitage greeted Sam and the others with a smile.

“Will you have difficulty sleeping because of the sudden change of living environment?”

"It's OK. Sam and I are both used to it."

Although Dean felt very disgusted with the old white man in front of him, it was obviously not the time to break up with him.

Sam also nodded very politely.

"Mr. Su Fan will be here in a while. During this time when he is not here, I have something I want to ask you two."

After hearing the other party's opening remarks, Dean and Sam knew what they were going to hear.

It's all about exorcism.

With the example of Su Fanjiu's one truth and one lie last night, they became more adept at lying.

The two had been to all sorts of environments to perform exorcisms, and in terms of surface work, they did a very good job.

During the conversation, Missy, who was sitting opposite the two evil spirits of the Wen family, smiled and gently stirred the coffee with the spoon in her hand.

The collision between metal and the inner wall of the ceramic cup makes a "ding-dong" sound, which, although it doesn't sound special, seems to have a slightly different rhythm.

Dean was talking so fast that he didn't immediately notice this detail, but Sam on the side noticed something wrong.

He nudged Dean beside him with his elbow. The latter was stunned. He quickly glanced at what Missy was doing in her hands opposite him, and immediately understood, with a smile on his face.

Hypnosis.

Advanced hypnotists can use some regular information to make the hypnotized subjects fall into the trap unknowingly.

It turned out to be the case.

Everyone who had come to this house before had lost their ability to resist in this way.

"Mrs. Armitage, maybe you put too much sugar in it? The sugar hasn't dissolved after stirring it for a long time. Why don't you go get another cup?"

Missy stopped moving.

Hypnosis will take some time to complete.

It was the first time that she was stopped by the other party.

Has it been discovered?
For a moment, Missy was quite panicked.

But in the blink of an eye, she saw her husband and son by her side, and she quickly calmed down.

"This is just a little habit of mine. Does it bother you?"

"I'm afraid so."

"Isn't Mr. Carlos a little too sensitive?"

Missy continued to deliberately "ding-dong" the spoon against the wall of the cup, which only increased the sound.

Regardless of whether one is aware of the hypnotic behavior or not, hypnosis will be successful as long as the time is long enough and the number of times is large enough.

Now, we are only one step away from successful psychological suggestion.

"It seems that Mrs. Missy didn't hear what I said clearly."

The smile on Dean's face faded.

"If you make that noise again, I'm going to smash that damn coffee cup in your face."

The harmonious atmosphere in the field was broken by these words full of ferocity and banditry.

Dean's crew cut and sturdy build, coupled with his face gradually losing its smile, created a strong deterrent effect.

Missy had never encountered such a direct threat before. For a moment, she forgot how to fight back and her movements stopped in fear.

Dean Armitage's face suddenly darkened.

"Can I take this as intimidation, Mr. Carlos?"

"How dare you threaten my wife in my manor, in front of me?!"

As the youngest and strongest man in the family, Jeremy stood up immediately.

But he was pressed down by Sam on the side with one hand.

Sam is the younger of the brothers, but in terms of size and body, he is even taller and stronger than Dean. Plus, with his body trained for years for exorcism, he can't beat a whole room of people.

Just when the atmosphere was tense, a voice came from above.

"It's so lively in the morning, and it looks very energetic."

Seeing the black-haired young man walking down the stairs above, Dean Armitage immediately spoke.

"Mr. Su Fan, I hope you can give me an explanation for the behavior of your two assistants."

"Explanation? What explanation?"

Su Fan seemed to be completely unaware of all this, and a hint of confusion appeared on his face.

"Carlos just now directly threatened my wife. If I don't teach them a lesson, I..."

"It was only a joke, Mr Armitage."

Dean Armitage was interrupted by Su Fan before he could finish his words.

"Dean is just like that. I hope you can be more understanding and tolerant."

“Moreover, this little friction and misunderstanding is not worth mentioning in the face of exorcism.

I believe you won't make it difficult for them, right?"

Dean Armitage looked at Su Fan.

The latter said "hope" and "tolerance" but there was no apology on his face.

The black eyes were extremely calm, staring at him with an ice-cold gaze that brooked no room for argument.

The other party's attitude is already obvious.

To expect him to reprimand the two brothers would be to invite humiliation.

Dean Armitage looked at Su Fan for a moment, then suddenly laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, of course."

"Mr. Sufan, you came here from somewhere else to exorcise the demons in our manor. How could we make things difficult for the assistant who came with you?"

"Missy, Jeremy, hurry up and apologize to Mr. Carlos and the others."

Missy had already put down what she was holding and apologized honestly, feeling unprecedented humiliation in her heart.

The situation is stronger than people, and the exorcism ritual must be performed by Su Fan and his team, which is equivalent to indirectly holding the power of life and death over their family.

Until the evil spirits here are driven out, they can only keep their tails between their legs.

Jeremy, on the other hand, looked indignant, snorted coldly and refused to speak.

He stood up and left the table directly, then turned back to the room.

A dispute ended in this way.

Dean and Sam were quite surprised.

I didn't expect it to be so easy to deal with.

Is this what it feels like to bully others?
"Don't worry about him, Mr. Sufan, just try this carefully prepared breakfast."

Dean Armitage did not try to persuade Su Fan to stay. Instead, he kindly invited Su Fan to sit down and have dinner with him.

Su Fan came over to Dean and Sam, pulled out a chair and sat down.

"I have already contacted relevant professionals this morning regarding the suggestions for manor renovation that you mentioned earlier, Mr. Su Fan."

"They will come the day after tomorrow to remodel the layout of the manor."

"What do you think?"

Su Fan cut a piece of muffin with a knife, put it in his mouth, then picked up the napkin beside him and wiped his mouth.

"Very efficient. It's rare to find clients like you who are good at listening to others' suggestions."

"Of course. As a doctor, I hope that patients can follow my treatment plan completely. However, things don't always go as planned. You know, many patients have their own ideas."

"I personally hate this very much, so when it comes to the advice of a professional, Sue, I will do my best to follow it."

After Dean Armitage said this, he glanced at Su Fan's reaction.

The latter seemed very satisfied with his attitude towards work and nodded slightly.

"With your full cooperation, I am sure this will be a smooth exorcism, Mr. Armitage."

"Thank you for the compliment. But I wonder when the ceremony can officially begin?"

"There's an old Chinese saying, 'Haste makes waste.' The more anxious you are to do something, the more likely you are to make mistakes."

Su Fan spoke slowly.

"To be honest, sir, Ruth was attacked by them again last night and was seriously injured..."

Dean and Sam looked around the dining table and realized that the woman who brought them here did not come for breakfast.

"If this continues, I'm worried..."

"No hurry, isn't he still alive?"

Dean Armitage's breathing stagnated, and a hint of anger emerged on his face, but it was quickly suppressed. Even though he tried his best to control it, his expression was visibly ugly.
