Chapter 81: Food Contest
Crying is one of the best ways to vent her emotions, and Ellie cries a lot and falls asleep. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Law and Kenda left the room and went to the lavishly decorated bar to sit by the window.
On the table against the wall was a glass of milk and a glass of whiskey, the milk was Luo's and the whiskey was Kenda's.
The two sat opposite each other, with the clear night sky and a bright full moon outside the window.
The ship flew at an altitude higher than the rain clouds, and the sky below was completely two worlds.
At this point, Rowe is a quiet listener who learns more about Ellie and her family through Kenda's storytelling.
Ellie's mother is Kenda's older sister, and the two siblings are orphans adopted by Barney's father to raise loyal subordinates, and ironically, Kenda and his sister lost both parents because of drugs.
After entering the Garfield family, Kenda was trained as a killer, and Kenda's sister was trained as an intelligence agent.
Ellie's birth has indeed changed the fate of some people.
In one attack after another from the enemy, many people have died trying to protect Ellie, including her mother.
Amid the sound of gunfire and blood, Ellie witnessed the death of her loved ones.
After that incident, Kenda, who is good at sniping, no longer engaged in assassination, and was transferred back to become the butler of the Garfield family and Ellie's personal bodyguard.
It must have been another mental blow for Ellie to witness Barney's death again tonight, and it was no wonder she would say that kind of thing.
Knowing Kenda's identity, and Ellie also relies on Kenda, Luo has a rough idea in his heart, and he doesn't need to stay all the time, as long as he waits for Kenda's injuries to recover.
"Even if you give up drugs, those people won't give up?" Luo picked up the milk and took a sip, he didn't like to drink before going to bed.
Kenda shook her head and sighed, "They don't leave any potential threats, even if Ellie is only ten years old, they won't show mercy, and besides, the gangster's usual approach to the enemy is to destroy the door." β
Luo raised his glass again and took a sip of milk, his brow furrowed slightly.
According to Kenda, after returning to Spicy City, when the group of small bosses stationed on various sites learned of Barney's death, the worst outcome was to directly attack Barney's mansion.
Barney started his business with terrifyingly high drug profits, controlling the production and export of the entire Spicy City, and his status was only inferior to that of the Ten Old Men, but he did it in a clever way.
If you have money, everyone earns it together.
This is his executive philosophy of controlling drugs, which certainly convinces many people underneath, but human desire is like a bottomless pit, even if a cake is divided, there will always be people who want two.
After a long time, even though you have earned a lot, some people will think like this: Why do you take the lion's share?
Now that Barney is dead, and he has lost so many men during this time, once the small bosses in the area of Spicy City learn of the news, it is very likely that they will unite to eat away at the property left by Barney.
Not to mention climbing to Barney's location, the mansion built on the hill alone has a wealth unimaginable for them.
Cash, jewelry, gold, collectibles... There are also a lot of drugs, which will become a factor in the eyes of the little bosses.
"Have you ever thought about leaving Spicy City with Ellie?" Luo asked, putting down his glass.
Kenda nodded and said, "I've thought about it, but... We can't get out of this quagmire. β
"If you only bring enough money to live on, and then find a place to live incognito, will they still be entangled?" Luo couldn't understand.
"I don't mean anything to disparage you. Kenda stared straight at Luo and said in a deep voice, "You are a little naΓ―ve. β
Luo was stunned, not knowing how to refute.
Kenda smiled bitterly and said, "Even if we give up everything, there will be some people who only want Ellie's life, which is an incomprehensible hatred. β
"So, we can only live in the mire, or die in the mire. β
"Even if Ellie doesn't want to bear this, she must bear it in the future, or she will die. β
"I'm not going to let Ellie get hurt, but even though it's going to be a thorny road, I'm going to force her to go on it. β
"She's still young, but I'll stay by her side until she has the strength to protect herself. β
After listening to Kenda's words, Luo rubbed his temples and said helplessly, "Is it so exaggerated?"
"You don't know anything about us. Kenda sighed.
You'll know that there are ghosts... Luo complained in his heart.
"I really don't know what you gangsters do, but do you want to force Ellie to be the second Barney?" said Law.
"Nope. Kenda said seriously, "I just hope Ellie can live safely." β
Luo rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I probably understand your thoughts, after going to Laxiang City, I will take care of you." β
As long as the thoughts of those collectibles are absorbed, and after the energy is greatly increased, as soon as the aura is released, most of the gang members will abandon their weapons and surrender.
And Luo does not agree with Kenda's approach, and does not want to continue to dwell on this topic, he has his own opinions and next steps.
Although it is unclear how many potential enemies Barney has, as long as they know that Ellie is in a vulnerable situation, they will surely jump out one by one and solve them all at that time.
Say you can't break free from the quagmire... He wouldn't let Ellie set foot in the underworld, let alone make her a second drug tycoon.
"Thank you!" Kenda's gratitude was palpable.
After that, Law confirms the partnership between the gang and Meteor Street with Kenda, and explains the concerns he has in mind to Kenda.
Kenda also knew the plan of fake death, and when he heard Luo's concerns, he immediately understood, and then dispelled Luo's concerns.
Although the gang and Meteor Street have a cooperative relationship, it is only a cooperative relationship, and the channels of intelligence information are not the same.
The Elders knew about Barney's death, but more detailed information was nowhere to go, and the gangsters knew about the Council of Elders and the four elders on Meteor Street, but they didn't know enough about how strong they were.
The two sides are a long-term cooperative relationship with a clear price, each taking what it needs, which is beneficial and harmless.
This is a big frame that is harder than steel, even if the East Street Elder breaks the rules, Kenda has no ability to retaliate, after all, he is not an existence of the level of the Ten Old Men, and he can't move this frame.
"By the way, is there any such ingredient as the liver of the sea thorn dolphin on the spaceship?" Luo suddenly remembered this stubble, since he got on the big ship of Kenda, it was a small request to satisfy his appetite.
Kenda replied, "There's still a little left, but the food hunter is gone, and with the current level of chefs on the ship, it's hard to recreate that deliciousness." β
"That guy isn't your chef, he's a food hunter?" said Rouse.
Anyway, how did that person not have an impression of his appearance... It seems to be very ordinary, and the sense of presence is very weak.
Kenda nodded and said, "Yes, even if the old man is rich, he can only be invited three times a month at most, and those uncommon ingredients are very expensive, and they can't be eaten every day." β
"As far as I know, even the top 10 richest people in the world can't hire food hunters to be private chefs. β
Luo's eyes widened in surprise, the food hunter with little pen and ink in the original book was so forced?
"Some of the world's richest people occasionally co-sponsor food competitions, set up lucrative prizes, and invite food hunters from all over the world to participate, just to satisfy their appetites. β
"Because the awards are not purely money, but also rare treasures, magnificent jewelry, and sky-high prices, once the competition is held, people rush to the awards. β
As if it was rare for Law to be so surprised, Kenda told him everything he knew.
Barney pays great attention to material comforts, and occasionally mentions the style of the world's top richest people, Kenda has heard a lot, and he knows a little, especially the food competition, and always hears that Barney wants to sit in that tasting seat once.
Listening to Kenda's words, Luo Chang saw it, and thought that rich people really knew how to play, so he used this way to taste all kinds of food.
