271  This steed is indeed a bit wild!

Do you have a Netflix membership?

Alice stood in front of William, momentarily at a loss for words.

"Master, I mean, someone wants to kill me!"

No, it must be that the master was so engrossed in the TV drama that he didn't hear what she said clearly.

William slowly lifted his head,at that moment, an advertisement was playing on his phone, which probably was the reason he looked up.

"Aren't you still alive?"

His tone was as calm as ever, without the slightest hint of tension.

Alice pouted and said, "You don't even care about me."

William didn't engage with her on this topic, instead he looked down and said, "If you don't have a membership, help me sign up for one; I'll pay for it."

"..." Alice, frustrated, stretched out her hand and said, "Give me your phone."

William had no choice but to hand over his phone.

Alice fiddled with the phone for a while and then asked, "What's the payment password?"

William looked up, incredulously, "You really don't have a membership? If I wanted to sign up, don't you think I'd know how to do it myself?"

Hiss—

"You know how to sign up for a membership?" Alice was even more surprised. This "old man" knew how to sign up for a membership himself? That was truly astonishing to her.

William smirked and extended his hand.

Alice exited all the operation interfaces, unwillingly returned the phone to William, and then stood behind him, watching how he would do it.

Following the screen prompts, William selected Netflix's standard with ads.

The system asked for an email address and to create a password, followed by the payment step.

He filled in the payment details with ease, but hesitated before clicking confirm.

Eventually, he chose a one-month standard with ads, planning in his mind to cancel it before the end of the month to avoid the automatic renewal and charge.

Alice watched all these operations, utterly astounded. A person who couldn't even manage online shopping by himself was able to subscribe and set reminders to cancel on Netflix with such proficiency.

William's ability to pinch pennies really could be applied in any field.

"Master, are you... really that short on money?" Alice almost forgot the original reason for her visit. "I was thinking of getting you a premium subscription,the picture quality would be much better."

William raised an eyebrow: "A premium subscription costs $22.99, and I just want to watch this one TV show."

Alice said somewhat helplessly: "How about I transfer some money to you? You keep your money with me anyway, and besides, I'm not short of money."

"No need, my daily expenses aren't much." William didn't feel like explaining too much to Alice. He had once experienced a life of wealth and luxury and knew that such a life didn't offer much joy.

Alice might never understand William's mindset, just like those millionaires who still pick up scrap on the streets every day.

"Alright, anyway, if you need money, just tell me..." Alice paused, thinking that even if she told William again that someone wanted to kill her, he would probably just calmly say that he knew.

Forget it, better not to talk about it,after all, she hadn't been harmed.

"Master, I haven't had dinner yet." Alice figured since she was already here, it would be a waste not to take the opportunity to get a free meal.

William put down his phone and said, "There's no food left in the fridge; let's go out to eat."

"Um, okay." Although she couldn't have a meal cooked by William, the idea of dining out with him was still a very pleasant one.

"Let's go to that place we went last time, Le Château de Paris." William thought the owner named Matthew was quite nice. Last time he had his meal comped, so this time to support the business, he ought to pay.

Alice looked at William and said, "Are you sure you're not going to see Sofia?"

"She probably doesn't work there anymore." William didn't think Sofia would still be working at Le Château de Paris to make money. Being possessed by a "demigod" and not having her soul taken away, having gained magical powers, Sofia's life must have changed dramatically, just like Evelyn was a good example.

"How did you know?" Alice raised her eyebrows. "I think you just want to see if that girl named Sofia is working there."

William put away his phone and stood up: "Having a beautiful woman play the violin while dining does indeed make the mood much more pleasant."

Sure enough!!

The purpose of this trip was not so simple.

Nonetheless, Alice still drove William to Le Château de Paris.

On the way, William's desire to learn grew stronger, and he asked, "How do you drive this car?"

"Do you want to learn how to drive?" Alice asked.

"Is that not okay?"

"Of course, it is!"

So, while driving, Alice began to explain to William the functions of the various components inside the car and then how to operate them to drive the vehicle.

William was quick to learn, and after listening, he said, "Isn't this just like riding a horse?"

"Huh?" Alice didn't understand how William could equate driving with horseback riding.

"The brakes and the steering wheel are like the reins, the handbrake is also like the reins. Pressing the brake is like when I say 'whoa', and pressing the accelerator is like when I say 'giddy up'!" William became more excited as he spoke, then said, "Shall we switch places, and I drive?"

"Ah?" Alice was stunned by his bizarre theory. It seemed that all the components in the car were equivalent to just a set of reins?

Controlling speed and braking all by shouting!

"Ah what? Let's switch places!" William could hardly wait to try it out.

"And..." Alice thought for a moment and then said, "This 'horse' might be a bit fiery, easy to cause accidents."

"No fear! I guarantee I won't hit anyone!" What kind of fiery horse couldn't be tamed by someone like William?

Before he knew how to drive, he had forcefully made Joseph's car move, and it didn't hit anyone. He just hadn't experienced the thrill of driving at that time.

Alice could only stop the car and switch places with William, then she herself took the passenger seat, buckled her seatbelt, and grabbing the handle next to her, said, "Master, please go slow!"

"Don't worry!" After William got in, he pressed the accelerator to the floor, and the car shot forward, nearly hitting the vehicle in front before William managed to stop it with sheer will, startling the driver ahead who stuck his head out the window and cursed loudly.

Alice thought William would be angry, but to her surprise, he just touched his nose awkwardly, gave a sheepish smile, and said to the driver, "Sorry about that!"

"Slow down!" The driver in front finally stopped cursing and drove off.

William stepped on the brakes and said, "This steed is indeed a bit wild!"

Alice was also quite frightened and said, "Master, should we wait and find an open space to practice tomorrow? If you want to learn, sign up for a driving school. Let a professional instructor teach you how to drive, okay? For safety's sake, it's better not to drive in busy traffic areas first."

"Alright, that works." William could only give up for the time being.

It's better not to engage in activities that could easily trouble ordinary people.

"By the way, is your car better or Zoey's?" William finally voiced a question that had been on his mind for days.

Alice paused for a moment, recalling their 13th Bureau's white minivan, and couldn't help but laugh, "Of course mine is better!"

"But that white minivan can carry stuff and people, and it can carry a lot," William said.

"Fine, I'll send you a luxury MPV then, as a token of respect for you, Master," Alice said, annoyed to the point of gnashing her teeth. A car that can carry a lot of people is good, huh? Why don't you just drive a truck?

It can carry a truckload of pigs, too!
