fragrance!
The smell of ‘food’ is wafting from the young man before him.
Moreover, there is more than one fragrance.
To be precise, from the other person's arms, wrists, and neck!
The opponent is carrying several items that can be called ‘food’.
Is this the heritage of the big family?
What are the rare props that ordinary people can carry on their bodies?
The four families of Onmyojis are even richer than expected!
Jason nodded while thinking.
"Ok."
Did not say more.
For a stranger, Jason's attitude is basically vigilance, vigilance hidden under indifference.
Don't talk to strangers.
In the "City that never sleeps", this is well known.
For Jason, facing a stranger carrying ‘food’, he needs to be more vigilant.
After all, ‘food’ is delicious.
But the same fatal.
However, this young man from the Huakaiyuan family did not seem to see Jason's indifference and vigilance. After Jason nodded in response, the young man immediately said, "Do you have any findings?"
Did not ask Ryosuke who looks more professional.
Nor did he ask the old monk of Tongshou Temple who should have been asked.
He didn't even look at Hui Lijing.
Just ask Jason...
Ryosuke looked indifferent.
Hui Lijing gritted her teeth with anger.
The old monk of Tongshou Temple shook his head slightly.
Obviously, this is another common problem for young people from large families.
Compare!
This young man from the Huakaiyuan family is now comparing with Jason.
In other words, the other party wants to see why Jason can become the heir of Tongshou Temple.
And Jason?
"Have."
A concise answer.
"Excuse me, what is it?"
The young man came interested and asked.
"Why should I tell you?"
Jason asked rhetorically.
The young man was startled.
He looked at Jason in a daze. It seemed that something was going wrong. It shouldn't be frankly speaking. Then he found a flaw in his words, ridiculed him, hid his face and fled?
Why hasn't it started yet, there is a feeling of ending.
This makes young people very unwilling.
After frowning slightly, the young man spoke.
"How can you tell me?"
While talking, the young man pretended to be sincere and looked at Jason.
It is not shameful to be small now.
In a while, he will even get back the cost and profit.
"Do you know alchemy?"
Jason asked a seemingly abrupt question.
"alchemy?"
"know."
The young man nodded.
Although they belong to the family of Onmyojis, they also know about alchemy young people overseas, especially certain alchemy that can break through the'life taboo', which is even more curious.
"Then do you know the most famous words in alchemy?"
Jason continued to ask.
The young man frowned.
There are many famous words in alchemy.
Such as--
One is all, and all is one.
The other side of the door is not Shambhala.
Nothing is perfect, the world is not perfect, so it looks beautiful.
Waiting for words, it is considered a famous saying in alchemy.
However, soon, the young man from the Huakaiyuan family reacted.
"The principle of equivalent exchange?"
"You mean I want to know what you found, I have to pay for items of the same value?"
The young man is not stupid, contacting the scene before him, he quickly got the answer.
Jason did not deny it.
This in itself is the answer he wants.
"People need to pay the same price for what they get!"
"This is the principle of equivalent exchange! At that time, we believed that this was the truth of the world--but the real world is not perfect! There is no principle that can explain everything, and the principle of equivalent exchange is the same!"
"But we are happy to do it sometimes."
"Because, most of the time, we have no choice."
Jason said.
"well."
"Then if I want to know your findings, what do I need to pay?"
The young man from the Huakaiyuan family nodded slightly and asked.
He recognized Jason's words very much.
Most of the time, they have no choice.
He also became more and more interested in Jason's discovery.
"A prop on you."
Jason said.
Although the young man in front of him had more than one prop, Jason wanted it too.
But he is more aware that this is impossible.
Don't say it is all necessary.
Even if it was one of them, Jason was ready to bargain.
Just beyond Jason's expectation, the young man in front of him nodded without hesitation.
"it is good."
"Using a prop on me as a bargaining chip, you tell me what I found."
The young man nodded happily.
Jason was even more happy and said directly.
"They died of murder."
"The murder happened before the rockets landed."
"Moreover, the murderer in this car did not escape."
Hearing Jason's first words, the young man from the Huakaiyuan family almost laughed.
After pulling so much, he thought there was something.
As a result, it was a murder.
The problem is, if you see the scene, all fools can know that this is murder.
However, following Jason's words, the young man from the Huakai Academy reduced his smile and his face became serious.
He turned his head to look at the scorched car and corpse, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Roads of cold light flashed through the narrow eyes.
Some information that no one else knows is connected.
On the side, Ryosuke turned his head and looked at the scorched scene.
The rocket that seemed to attack just now was actually meant to kill people and destroy corpses?
How did Jason find out?
Ryosuke carefully checked the scorched scene in front of him.
But as before.
He found nothing.
Ryosuke didn't find anything, and Hui Lijing did the same.
Regarding herself as an excellent detective, Hui Lijing forcibly endured the smell of burnt human flesh and burnt rubber. After patrolling the scene for a few times, she finally chose to give up.
There is naturally a trace of frustration in my heart.
But soon, hope emerged.
Is this the power of the "mysterious side"?
Can I learn this?
Hui Lijing thought so.
"you sure?"
The young man from Huakaiyuan asked.
"You can investigate carefully."
"He killed him."
"Then the rocket fell."
Jason pointed directly at the two burnt corpses in one of the cars and said.
Then, without waiting for the other person to ask again, he said: "I will eat at the ‘Luminous Cooking Pavilion’. I believe you will find something before I finish my meal."
After speaking, Jason turned and walked towards the ‘Luminous Cooking Pavilion’.
Jason is not worried that the other party will not follow the agreement.
In front of so many people.
Unless the other party is shameless, if you say it, you won't fail to comply.
For people from a large family, it is shameless, but it is more uncomfortable than killing them.
Of course, guys such as Lothar 11 are exceptions.
Can you count on a waste of wood to save face?
As long as he can survive, taking off his pants and Guo Ben will not be difficult for a guy like Lothar 11.
"Be careful."
"It is best not to participate in the affairs of the Huakaiyuan family."
The old monk Tongshousi and Jason walked side by side, reminding in a low voice.
"Ok."
Jason nodded.
For the friendly reminder, Jason will not refuse.
Just like when facing danger, Jason generally chooses to avoid.
However, that is under normal circumstances.
If this danger is accompanied by ‘food’.
Jason is happy to take a chance.
The old monk Tongshousi looked at Jason's expression and couldn't help sighing in his heart.
Is it a young man?
A guy like him is really old!
However, old age is old.
Anyway, he is also planning to go back to the country for the elderly.
Thinking of the comfortable life after returning to the country, the old monk couldn't help laughing.
"Master, everyone, please come here."
The waiter looked at the people who came back and immediately greeted them.
Through the gate, there is a gravel road.
The square gray stone slabs are embedded on the ground ten centimeters apart, and the gaps around are stones the size of a thumb.
The gravel road is not straight, but winding. A handful of emerald green bamboo stands in front of him, and the sound of gurgling water is heard.
After walking along the gravel road and rounding two bends, everything suddenly became clear.
A small stone bridge appeared in front of Jason.
Under the bridge is the sound of running water.
On both sides of the bridge are springs.
The spring water kept flowing out, and after gathering under the bridge, it flowed to unknown places.
More than a dozen brightly colored koi carps are swinging down the bridge.
When Jason walked in, the koi that had jumped out of the water from time to time fled around like crazy.
Jason saw him and curled his lips.
He is not here to eat fish today, so what is he afraid of.
"Your seats are here."
The waiter took the four Jason to the corner of the cooking pavilion hall. When the bamboo curtains on both sides were lowered, the entire space immediately became private.
"Your whole beef set meal will be here in a while."
"Also, an unexpected surprise will also appear."
After leaving such words, the waiter got up and left.
The old monk of Tongshou Temple and Liangjie sat cross-legged.
Jason was not accustomed to this sitting position, so he stretched his legs under the table-the table above, the bottom is a recess, which can hang his legs just right.
There is a layer of soft cushion underneath, which makes it very comfortable to step on.
There is heating, not cold at all.
Hui Lijing sits in the same way.
Leaning on Jason's side, under the cover of a table, Hui Lijing stretched out the soles of her feet to her heart's content, her toes kept moving. This kind of cheerful feeling made her hum a happy little tune.
"Kneeling is what a lady should have."
Ryosuke seemed a bit old-fashioned at this time.
Hui Lijing gave the other person a white look, and said unceremoniously.
"Kneeling is recommended for short people."
Ryosuke was about to refute immediately.
However, he opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Because Hui Lijing is really taller than him.
He wasn't even taller than a woman...Although he was deliberately stabbing, Ryosuke still felt inexplicably struck.
"I'll go to the bathroom."
Ryosuke stood up and walked out as if avoiding embarrassment.
When the bamboo curtain was opened, Ryosuke looked at Jason calmly.
In Jason's insignificant nod, Ryosuke quickly disappeared behind the curtain.
Jason did not forget what Ryosuke really wanted to do.
The other party is not here to eat.
that's nice!
The old monk of Tongshou Temple probably saw something. After putting his hands together, he stopped talking.
Hui Lijing?
The female detective who was targeted again is still angry.
Ryosuke who had left was ignored at all.
Hui Lijing won't be overwhelmed until the three waiters come with a dinner plate with beef.
"Beef sashimi!"
The female detective stared at the beef like snowflakes with bright eyes.
You're welcome, just picked up the chopsticks.
It really melts in your mouth!
The dip is sweet and sour!
Let the beef have no fishy smell!
Without any cooking, this kind of purest food is really lingering.
Involuntarily, the female detective closed her eyes intoxicated.
then--
"One more."
Jason's voice came.
The female detective opened her eyes.
The dinner plate filled with beef, which was originally placed in front of Jason, was already empty.
It's not just Jason's.
And hers.
She obviously only ate a piece.
Why is it gone?
Hui Lijing looked at Jason angrily.
Jason looked calm.
"not me."
While talking, Jason looked at the old monk Tongshousi.
The old monk was very acquainted and handed Jason the dinner plate with beef in front of him.
But, soon, the old monk couldn't laugh.
Because Jason ate too fast.
It was almost the beef that had just been served, and it was gone in the blink of an eye.
With his eyesight, he could almost only see an afterimage.
This this……
The old monk was dumbfounded.
"If it weren't for an accident, Jason would be the winner of the "Gourmet Food" challenge."
Hui Lijing said lightly.
"Is that the big burger game?"
The old monk asked, slightly nervous.
Tongshou Temple is not far from the ‘Food Yifan’ street.
He knows the game of the big appetite very well.
Everyone who can participate is a terrible guy with a monster stomach.
"Yes."
Under the increasingly nervous gaze of the old monk at Tongshou Temple, Hui Lijing nodded seriously.
Suddenly, the old monk's sweat came down.
He clenched the wallet hidden in the left sleeve.
The wallet that originally felt thick, suddenly felt thin.
In front of his eyes, there seemed to be bills flying away.
Every bill made such a shout in the wind--
That's it! That's it!
"It's over!"
After Jason added meat for the tenth time, the old monk closed his eyes.
He finally understood why Jason's tone of confirmation was repeated when he invited dinner to make up for Jason.
original……
Am I naive?
The old monk sighed in his heart.
Then, when he heard Hui Lijing's words, his heart tightened again.
"Eating too much beef sashimi is also very greasy."
"Whole beef meal, there should be barbecue and shabu meat, right?"
Hui Lijing asked.
Yes!
Beef sashimi is the beginning, followed by barbecue and shabu!
The old monk sighed. He took out his hand clutching his wallet and slowly put it into the right sleeve.
It's not money here.
It's the card ~EbookFREE.me~ is the card with his pension.
Tears appeared in the eyes of the old monk as he gently rubbed the hardness on it.
Why are there so many tears in my eyes?
Because that is my love for life!
What retirement is not retirement.
Aren’t they all still alive?
The old monk said to himself, then he thought of something and stood up abruptly.
"Let me borrow the phone."
The old monk said so and rushed out quickly.
"Hello, is the ticket center?"
"Well, yes, I refund the ticket."
"what?"
"Can't refund the full amount?"
"Can only be refunded at half price?"
"Fraud, you are a fraud, obviously it has not passed twelve o'clock!"
"You should refund the full price!"
"I'm a monk!"
"The monk who enshrines the Bodhisattva is the closest person to the Buddha!"
"How could I lie!"
...
The old monk's voice fell into Jason's ears clearly.
Is it the limit?
Jason sighed slightly in his heart.
Then, once again restrained his hunger.
This is not an easy task for Jason.
If you do not eat, restraint will be restrained.
But once you start eating, you must exercise restraint.
For Jason, that would have to use willpower ten times, one hundred times stronger than before.
But at this moment, the young man from the Huakaiyuan family walked into the restaurant.
Although separated by bamboo curtains, the young man saw Jason at a glance.
He walked quickly, his face was solemn, and when he came outside the bamboo curtain, he leaned slightly and said straightly
"Excuse me for dinner, Lord Jason."
"As an apologize, I am willing to entertain you later."
