"These magical creatures may become your summoned beasts in the future. I will take you to get closer to them when I have the chance."
Sue then changed the subject, getting down to business: "In 1926, I bought two islands in Hawaii. One was Kahulawe, an uninhabited island with little economic development potential, and the other was..."
Lanai Island?
Serena was the one who answered.
Mrs. Su nodded: "Yes, how did you know?"
"My God, Lanai Island is yours? No, I mean you bought Lanai Island in 1926?" Serena exclaimed excitedly.
She glanced at the somewhat bewildered crowd and couldn't help but ask, "Don't you all know? With the development of Hawaii's tourism industry, the only island suitable for vacationing and living is Lanai, the sixth largest island, which is undeveloped and even neglected."
"Many developers wanted to buy the island for tourism development, but Lanai Island is privately owned. All we know is that a mysterious Easterner bought the island from the then pineapple plantation owner, Duer Company founder Duer, and then disappeared without a trace, and no one has been able to contact the new owner of Lanai Island."
Serena paused, then looked at Su and said, "There were rumors at the time that the island owner spent a huge sum of 500 million to buy Lanai Island and Kahulawe Island. Is that true? Did you really spend 500 million in 1926?"
Mr. Su nodded: "It did indeed cost five hundred million to buy these two islands..."
"Oh my God!" Serena couldn't help but want to shout "God!"
Well, once everyone understood what was going on, their reactions were similar to Serena's.
The Su family actually traveled back in time and spent 500 million US dollars to buy two islands in Hawaii.
This was probably more shocking to them than seeing these magical creatures and house-elves.
“I called you all here because of this,” Su said to Lisa Trinity and the others. “I’m planning to develop Lanai Island next. Lisa, I’ll get you the relevant documents later. You can handle this.”
“Okay.” Lisa Trinity nodded.
"Serena, the second season of the world's most extraordinary residence can be set on Lanai Island, but we'll only provide the design drawings and monitoring; the construction team will be our own company."
“No problem.” Serena nodded in agreement.
“Rickinell and Don, you two will stay there once construction begins. Rickinell will be in charge of security on the island, and Don will be in charge of the other matters.”
"Yes."
"Ok."
The two nodded in agreement.
Ms. Su said with a smile, "I'll go over first, and I'll let you out later."
With that, Su left the alternate dimension and, sensing the Flying Thunder God mark on Lanai Island, teleported there instantly.
Then he activated the blurring effect and released everyone.
Decades of neglect have made the island even more primitive and natural. Nearby, there are still remnants of the old wooden houses, which have long since fallen into disrepair and are now just ruins after years of wind and rain.
"Nagini, Ricky, you two take my Flying Thunder God Kunai and go to opposite sides of the island. Leave the Flying Thunder God Kunai behind. The rest of you can wander around. Just call me if you encounter any danger."
Su gave a few instructions, then left Lisa Trinity behind and handed her the relevant documents for the two islands and the Cortez Hotel in Los Angeles.
"That's all we've got on this trip. Oh, right... there's this too." Mrs. Su took out her phone and found the video of how she had scared Elizabeth.
After seeing the video, Lisa Trinity naturally recognized the hotel owner who had scared her half to death back then. She never expected that Su would go back to the past to seek revenge for her and even buy the hotel.
She returned the phone to Ms. Su and smiled, "I think we should find a quiet place to stroll around."
Chapter 277 Dean is resurrected, and Angel Radio is activated!
Lanai Island has never been truly developed or constructed. Although some basic infrastructure was built in Tul back then, it was mainly to serve pineapple plantations. After many years of neglect, it has long been submerged by nature again.
Lanai Island has a fantastic inland environment with a humid climate and lush greenery everywhere. It is almost entirely surrounded by towering jungles, maintaining a pristine and natural state with a charming pastoral landscape.
The bay is different; the climate is relatively colder, with sunshine on one side and a chilly sea breeze and drizzling rain on the other.
The surrounding bays feature many rugged cliffs, and some hidden paths offer outdoor enthusiasts the thrill of exploring the unknown.
At the end of the rugged cliffs, you can see the volcano across the strait and the white clouds swirling around the mountainside.
The cliff face breaks off several meters high, resembling a magnificent sea gate, its surface glowing fiery red in the sunlight.
Although the rock face wasn't very high, standing on the edge still made me feel anxious.
The sound of the waves rushing past your ears, accompanied by the whistling wind, seems to carry away your very soul.
The island also features a crescent-shaped beach and its only mountain, the 14th peak of Lanai Ridge, which stands at 3370 feet (1027 meters) and offers panoramic views of the entire island and its surrounding waters.
The south shore is also an excellent diving spot, with a huge 60-foot (18-meter) space that can accommodate hundreds of marine creatures.
These marine creatures include octopuses, blue-spotted softshell turtles, and pyramid butterflyfish.
An experienced diver can spend hours exploring the secrets hidden in the crevices of the ocean floor, accompanied by some of the most beautiful marine life in the Pacific.
The northwestern part of Lanai Island is a hilly area.
Additionally, there is a place called Kanip Reserve on the highlands of the island, a 590-acre adventure park and a paradise for hikers.
Here you can experience the last remaining dry forest with over 40 species of native Hawaiian plants.
Lisa Trinity only learned this after contacting the local authorities. Although it was a private island, the nature conservation association could only make the decision on its own and take responsibility for protecting the forest because they had been unable to contact the Su family for many years.
Located in the central part of Lanai Island, it covers an area of about 2 square kilometers.
After quickly learning about Lanai Island, Su had already formed a general idea of how to develop it.
After that, he went to Kahurawe Island.
There's not much to say about the island itself; it's more pristine and natural than Lanai, and because it lacks water, it's not suitable for habitation and doesn't have much development potential.
However, Su learned quite a bit about Kahulawe Island from various news reports.
For example, Kahulawe Island was once a penal island of the Kingdom of Hawaii, used as a place to exile Catholics. After the abolition of the penal code of exile, the island became a sheep ranch and was designated a forest reserve in 1910.
Later, it was bought by Duer and transferred to the Su family.
Therefore, the island belonged to the Soviet Union as private property, but it remained unclaimed for a long time. During World War II, the U.S. military used it for military exercises.
In 1953, the president signed an executive order attempting to transfer the island to the Navy, but this was unsuccessful and was not recognized.
Unfortunately, no one stepped forward, so the Pacific Fleet used the island frequently for the next 30 years.
These news stories were gradually revealed later. Back then, it was all a secret operation. Since no one was the victim, and they couldn't openly allocate the land to the navy, they decided to use it secretly.
"Can we sue it?" Su asked Lisa Trinity.
By this time, they had returned to the hotel from Hawaii, and the others who had been summoned had been sent back by the shadow clones.
The only people in the hotel were Bea, Jennifer, and Nydy, who were originally there, as well as Queenie and Nagini, whom he had brought back from the past.
Of course, there's also Lisa Trinity.
“It’s possible to sue, but it’s very difficult to win, and the cost would be astronomical,” Lisa Trinity thought for a moment.
Su shrugged dismissively: "Astronomical figures are great, I love astronomical figures. This way, you have time to assemble a legal team, I don't care how much it costs, I don't care how long it takes, I just want to win!"
"If we don't win, we'll keep suing!"
Lisa Trinity advised, "This won't do you any good."
"You don't understand, just do as I say."
I'm not short of money, so what if I sue you? When it comes to financial resources—the Su family is second to none!
Besides, that's my island. Regardless of whether they can contact me or not, using it as a training ground without permission is no different from breaking into your house and destroying it when no one is home. Do you think you're a husky?
Besides, what's the point?
Who said there are no benefits?
I'm just worried about where to spend money to become stronger. If I don't sue you, you'll be begging and pleading, and if I don't sue you, you'll be in financial straits—I'm not a super-rich person!
What could Lisa Trinity say to the wealthy and capricious Su family?
If she wanted to sue, she thought it through. With the Su family's abilities being comparable to those of a god, or rather, that of a god, this kind of thing was nothing to them.
"What are you going to do for the next period of time?" Lisa Trinity asked curiously.
After thinking for a moment, Su said, "I probably won't be bothered with daily trivial matters for a while. The war between angels and demons is about to begin, and I plan to train a few capable ninjas as soon as possible to gain some benefits in this war."
"By the way, you don't need to go to the Cortez Hotel yet. It's not time yet. I'll take you there later."
“Okay.” Lisa Trinity nodded. “Take me back. I’m going to be busy from now on.”
Instead of using Shadow Clone Technique, Sue personally sent Lisa Trinity back.
Upon their return, Sue booked rooms for Queenie and Nagini to rest, as they must have been quite tired after their time in Hawaii.
Silent all night.
The next morning, Su sensed the Flying Thunder God mark of the fallen angel Anna Milton and teleported there.
"call out--"
A figure flashed by, and Su Shi, who appeared, was slightly taken aback.
This is actually a hospital room?
On the hospital bed, Anna Milton sat with her head turned back, looking out at the sky. She tilted her head slightly, and her lips moved as if she were silently repeating something.
"Anna?" Su called softly.
Anna Milton was stunned, then turned to look at Sue: "Dean has been rescued... Dean has been rescued... Dean, is that you?!"
Anna Milton, as if waking from a dream, widened her eyes and rushed towards Su Shi excitedly: "I'm not crazy, I'm really not crazy, please take me away from here, okay? Believe me, I'm really not crazy, I just... I just keep hearing some voices!"
Dean has been resurrected, and Anna Milton, the angel radio station, has begun receiving messages from the angels.
……
P.S.: Back to the Supernatural storyline, I haven't decided what to write for my next American TV series yet.
Also, I won't go into detail about who I'm suing, as it's likely to be censored; just get the general idea.
Chapter 278 Farewell Dean and the Angel's Whisper
Looking at Anna Milton, who was clinging to her as if she were a lifeline, Su nodded slowly and comforted her softly, "I know, I know you're not crazy, I believe you!"
