Exorcist's Self-Cultivation-Chapter 687 - 684 Emperor Ryan became a baron
Chapter 687: 684, Emperor Ryan became a baron. Chapter 687: 684, Emperor Ryan became a baron. After Ryan Hamel finished speaking, he directly collapsed into the stone coffin in front of Du Wei.
At this moment, the pouring rain had already accumulated a considerable amount of water inside the stone coffin.
The next second.
“fuck! Why am I wet?”
“Did I wet my pants, but why is there so much water? Is it because I urinate frequently?”
“Hey, wait, it’s raining, that scared me for a moment!”
It was the ranting voice that Du Wei was very familiar with, and then Ryan sat up from the coffin, his face filled with alarm.
...
He glanced at Du Wei, and his eyes lit up even more, “Director! Is that you, Director?”
Across from him, Du Wei had a complex expression, “Ryan, I’ve come to take you home.”
Ryan was extremely excited, and as he climbed out of the coffin, he said enthusiastically, “Director, you finally came to pick me up. I’ve been feeling out of sorts lately, always having nightmares at Dusk Bell Psychiatric Hospital, and I keep hearing some idiot telling me I’m Ryan Hamel.”
“I’ve told him to call me ‘Your Majesty,’ but he just wouldn’t listen; it’s driving me crazy!”
“If I ever come across that idiot, I’m going to beat him so bad he won’t recognize his own mother.”
Ryan was very angry.
Unable to help it, Du Wei laughed, “As long as you’re happy.”
Ryan scratched his wet hair, “So, Director, where’s Dusk Bell Psychiatric Hospital? It looks like it’s gone.”
As he spoke, he pointed towards the location where Dusk Bell Church used to be, right opposite them.
Then, Ryan raised his eyebrows and, pointing at James and Tiquel, who were lying on the ground soaked through, said, “Eh, what are these two idiots doing here as well?”
Ryan’s speech was riddled with swear words.
This left Du Wei feeling helpless; he had known Ryan for so long but had never taught him to curse. Could it be that Ryan had been led astray at Dusk Bell?
As for the truth, it naturally wasn’t convenient to tell Ryan.
It had to be put another way.
Thinking of this, Du Wei said with utmost seriousness, “Dusk Bell Psychiatric Hospital went bankrupt, and the place was even demolished by Swiss real estate developers. Even Matthew has fled.”
Ryan suddenly realized, “That makes sense! I freaking knew it, Matthew is such a pauper; he’s not fit to be the director at all. Now look, Dusk Bell went bankrupt and he’s run off.”
“That’s not right! He still owes me money!”
As soon as Ryan said this, he immediately started searching himself and pulled out a bank card from his pocket, then carefully shook it next to his ear.
Hmm…
“Good, I transferred all of Matthew’s money to my card. Otherwise, after all my hard work at Dusk Bell, being diligent and devoted, I wouldn’t have earned a dime, and even helped them with their treatments, it would have been a severe loss.”
Ryan passed the bank card to Du Wei with a smile, “Here’s the card, Director. When we rebuild our psychiatric hospital, we’ll rely on this capital to start.”
Moved by some inexplicable impulse, Du Wei asked, “How much money is in the card?”
After thinking for a moment, Ryan replied, “I’m not too sure, but however much Matthew had, that’s how much is in here. I’ve transferred away all of Dusk Bell’s account funds. They still owe me over a hundred billion anyway.”
Hearing this, Du Wei inhaled sharply.
He only felt a sourness in his teeth. Ryan had been rambling previously about Matthew owing him two hundred or three hundred billion, and now saying it was still over a hundred billion. That meant there must be at least over a hundred billion in Ryan’s card.
In other words,
Even if Dusk Bell Church hadn’t been banished by Du Wei to the Ghost Dimension, even if all the members of Dusk Bell were still around, and Matthew hadn’t fled, Dusk Bell would have still been utterly bankrupt.
Two hundred years of family savings, all became Ryan’s.
It’s devilish to the extreme…
Du Wei looked at Ryan’s grinning expression and then at the bank card, and said speechlessly, “Money is of no use to me, you should keep it for yourself.”
Ryan said in surprise, “But Director, if I don’t give you the money, how are you going to pay me my salary? You wouldn’t want to be a heartless capitalist like Matthew, would you?”
“Of course not,” said Du Wei, his mouth twitching slightly, “I might as well keep it for you. You’ve got all of Dusk Bell’s assets in your hands; Matthew might trouble you later, so the money is indeed safer with me.”
I could always build a few psychiatric hospitals for Ryan later on to fulfill my promise.
And just then.
Tiquel, who was lying on the ground, slowly woke up. He shivered all over and heard phrases like “Dusk Bell assets” and “got his hands on” in his groggy consciousness, which jolted him awake.
“No! How can Dusk Bell’s assets end up in the hands of an outsider!”
As he opened his eyes, he saw Du Wei reaching out to catch the bank card passed by Ryan, and the two of them turned to look at him at the same time.
In that instant, Tiquel’s heart grew cold.
What the hell is this situation?
His Excellency the Duke and Ryan were conducting some kind of transaction?
Could it be that His Excellency put Ryan into Dusk Bell in order to steal the assets Dusk Bell had accumulated for two hundred years?
Impossible!
The idea was too absurd; this was His Excellency the Duke, how could he do such a boring thing!
But, the scene before his eyes made it hard for Tiquel to accept.
Grinding his teeth, Tiquel said, “Your Excellency the Duke, the money in this bank card is indeed Dusk Bell’s, isn’t it?”
Du Wei frowned and nodded, “That’s correct.”
Gathering his courage, Tiquel insisted, “I’m sorry, Your Excellency the Duke, this is Dusk Bell’s money. Lord Matthew knows you, and perhaps it’s more appropriate if I keep it safe. What do you think?”
In fact, Tiquel was unaware that Matthew had already fled.
He was utterly loyal to Matthew and was still thinking of protecting Dusk Bell to the end.
The least he could do was not to go bankrupt…
However, Ryan on the side sneered and pointed at Tiquel, cursing, “Cut the crap, Dusk Bell’s money? Dusk Bell doesn’t have a penny, that’s all my money, Ryan’s money!”
“You’ve owed me so much money, now you’re using all your assets to settle the account, you don’t think I’m being magnanimous, do you?”

“I’ll tell you, Tiquel, forget Dusk Bell’s assets, even you and James are my assets. The Director will need cleaners for the new hospital, and I think you two would be perfect for cleaning toilets. You can work for me for a lifetime as payment of your debt.”
Unable to resist, Tiquel said, “Ryan, you’re going too far.”
Ryan spit out a glob of saliva, accurately hitting Tiquel’s shoes, “Pah! Tiquel, who allowed you to talk to me with that tone?”
“You know who I am?”
“I am the deputy the Director trusts most, the great head of Dusk Bell Psychiatric Hospital. I am also the emperor anointed by the Director. Though my territory has been demolished by real estate developers, I am still nobility!”
“Call me Baron Ryan!!!”
Ryan lifted his head proudly; if it wasn’t raining cats and dogs, he might actually look quite imposing.
Tiquel stared at Ryan as if he were looking at a fool.
On the side, Du Wei simply pocketed the bank card and said indifferently, “I’ll keep the money. If Matthew wants it, he can come to me in person.”
