Marvel’s Princess Chapter 138: Bella to New York

Seeing others getting rich, Bella was a little envious of it. Investing in Koenigsegg caused her money to shrink significantly. Now she can hardly afford cosmetics!

She accelerated her book writing, and two days later, she flew to New York by plane with the manuscript of the 420,000-word Da Vinci Code that she had corrected three times.

Bella is going to Random House to discuss publishing.

There are also publishers in Los Angeles, but in terms of scale, they are far inferior to those in New York.

Quentin Baker's Zodiac Killer sells well in California because it is so popular here, but no one is interested in his books on the East Coast. Bella's positioning of The Da Vinci Code is for the world, for sure. You can’t give your book to a publisher here in Los Angeles.

Random House, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, the top three publishers in the United States are all in New York.

If she wants her book to be seen by more people, she must come to New York.

Going to New York, and her little unknown thoughts.

Bella is really annoyed by the endless troubles. No matter where she goes, something goes wrong. Who can bear this! This time she came to New York alone just to see whether it was her own physical problem or whether it was someone else who was causing trouble to her. In her mind, this 'other person' meant that cheap sister...

After getting off the plane, she didn't go straight to Random House. It would be useless if she did, because they didn't even know her!

She still uses the old method of finding connections and introductions from acquaintances.

Bella called the fat old man she met during the Death Incident, Professor John Gray.

Although she did not go to Bard College to study, she and the old man had always had some email contact, and combined with their previous friendship, they were not strangers.

The fat old man welcomed her visit and showed her around Bard College.

After hearing her purpose, old Professor John Gray hoped that she would keep the manuscript with him. The fat old man is a very strict person. He will not say that we are on good terms with each other, so I will go out of my way to embarrass you. He must at least read it himself and recognize its value before recommending it to students who are editors at major publishers.

This is a normal process, and Bella has no objections. Her original plan was to stay in New York for a few days.

"Excuse me, Professor."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

After a few polite words, Bella left politely. Professor John Gray invited her to sit at home, but she hurriedly declined, she couldn't do it, she couldn't do it! Your daughter is Jean Grey, right? If the Dark Phoenix breaks out directly, can I handle it?

Stay away!

After declining Professor John Gray's invitation, she slept in a hotel for one night and went straight to the New York Public Library the next day.

There were many people in the library, and there was no Spider-Man running around here yet. The library was very quiet. Looking at the sturdy bookshelves and the rows of thick books, inspiration suddenly emerged in Bella's heart. , took out the pen and paper that he carried with him, and started his own writing (copying) book business again.

The New York Public Library reminded her of a very famous movie in her past life, The Day After Tomorrow.

This movie mainly tells the story of the melting of icebergs in the northern hemisphere due to the greenhouse effect and the earth entering the second ice age.

Faced with the terrifying low temperature environment, the protagonists in the movie finally escaped by closing the doors and windows in the New York Public Library and burning books.

After practicing the Da Vinci Code, her writing skills have become quite good at this time. The story of the day after tomorrow is not complicated, and it is no problem to write it as a short story.

She was writing furiously, retelling the story in her mind in words. Before the library was about to close, she had already completed one-third of the book, about 8,000 words.

As she was sorting out her manuscript, her gaze inadvertently lifted up, and she realized that there was an old man sitting in front of her.

She had no idea how long the old man had been there. He seemed not to exist at all in her perception, but she could see the old man clearly with her eyesight.

Bald head, gentle face, meticulously dressed in suit and tie, and sitting in a wheelchair! At this time, the old man was looking at her with a smile.

This is the mentor of the X-Men, Magneto's best friend and lifelong enemy, Professor Charles Xavier, also known as Professor X.

Bella didn't pretend to be confused, because there was no need at all.

She knew Old Professor John Gray and Storm, so it was not surprising that she came into Professor Charles's sight. They had common friends, but they had never met each other.

Bella was very curious as to why the old bald man came to see her: "Professor Charles? Do you have something to do with me?"

The old man did not answer the question directly, but pointed to the short story she wrote: "Why is Miss Swan so pessimistic? Is our world, our civilization, so fragile in your perception? We have arrived Do you want to face the end of the world? ”

Bella looked down at the manuscript she had written. Just reading the first half of the plot of The Day After Tomorrow would indeed give rise to a premonition that mankind is about to perish, because it is so tragic.

She did not explain the second half of her short story.

She and Professor Charles have different paths, but they are both leaders in the ability to control the mind. To a certain extent, spells and powers have the same goal, but up to a certain level, there is no difference.

Bella thought about it seriously and carefully analyzed her true inner world. Why did she write this story?

After five minutes of silence, she was surprised to find that Professor Charles was right. Looking at her heart from an objective perspective, she was indeed full of pessimism about the future, but her pessimism was deeply hidden.

Her pessimism is all for her family, for Charlie, for Samantha, and for the Black Widow who jumped off the cliff in exchange for the Soul Stone.

Stark's sacrifice can bring a lot of people to attend the funeral, but what about Black Widow? There is nothing, just die, or be trapped in the world of soul gems, unable to be resurrected at all.

Bella never knew that Natasha's status in her heart was so high. Sad emotions gathered in her heart one by one, converging into a stream, surging from her spiritual world to the material world.

"Why am I so sad all of a sudden?"

"I thought of my dead father!"

"I don't know why, but I just want to cry!"

Bella's sadness affected the entire library. Those with a strong heart were filled with bitterness, while those with a weak will cried out. The vast library seemed to be surrounded by endless sadness in an instant.

Professor Charles' tone was still so gentle: "Please calm down, Miss Swan, and stop spreading your emotions."

The old bald man doesn’t panic at all when it comes to mental explosions, because he has seen too many! The more powerful a person with psychic abilities is, the more vulnerable they are mentally.
