Chapter 3 Restaurant Episode (Daily Update, Asking for Pink Tickets~)

"Ann... Quiet... How... Finish? ”

Vivien stammered nervously, but Annottby gritted her teeth and said, "It's dead." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

He's dead?!

"Annotby, how did that man die?" Molica asked.

"It's... Poisoned to death. ”

"Poisoning??"

"Oh my God, there's poison in this food!"

"It's horrible, I've just eaten it!"

The crowd began to gossip, and their faces were full of panic.

"Let's go, let's go tell the convoy!"

"Yes, I also came from Zhongcheng District to eat, but I didn't expect it to be a black shop at all!"

"Impossible, I eat here every day, and it is impossible for Migrena to poison people with the dishes!"

"What is impossible, in fact, it will poison people!"

"But!"

"No, but! The dead man is right in front of you, don't you have eyes?! ”

The regulars were still defending the restaurant, but their rhetoric sounded so weak.

The voices of indignation, the voices of resentment and terror, no one wanted to pay, but they all lifted the table and vented their anger.

The whole small restaurant was like boiling water, and it was noisy.

The man who ate with the dead man was even more pale, looking at the table of food, and looking at the face of the dead man, cold sweat dripped down, and he was afraid that he would be like that man in the next moment.

"How is this possible!" Migrina muttered to herself, the noise, questioning, and suspicious glances that swept over her like a sword, making her tremble.

Everyone was talking, as if they had known about this restaurant since a long time ago, and completely forgot that they were still praising the dishes of this restaurant a moment ago.

They forgot who had lowered the price of their meals in order to make food accessible to everyone in the lower town.

They forgot who generously allowed credit when they forgot to bring money.

They forget who is always helping their neighbors in a tight day.

All they know is that someone died in this restaurant, and they could have eaten that poisoned meal!

Cheray watched all this with disdain, and sure enough, humans are such weak, vile, and timid creatures. If you don't investigate the reasons and ask for explanations, you just blindly fall into the trap, shirk responsibility, and are selfish and hypocritical.

As an orc, Chere has always looked down on humans.

Aside from David's family, and Molika and others, he had rarely seen a human with the same passionate, eclectic, and kind qualities as the orcs. More human beings are pretending to be high-minded and pretentious, and those large mercenary groups that invite him to join all regard him as a benefit and tool to calculate, only the brave mercenary group is a collection of friends and friends, and it is a warm existence like a family, which is why he is willing to stay in this small mercenary group.

"Shut up!"

David is just an intermediate swordsman, but in this lower city, he is already a rare master, and he is an existence that is admired by the powerless people in the lower city. He drank violently, and succeeded in quieting the crowd.

"Annotby, do you know what poison it is?"

"Is it because of our food?"

"I'm sorry... I... I do not know. ”

Annotby, who was biting her lower lip, felt extremely helpless and unwilling about her powerlessness.

Back then, if it weren't for the help of David's family, he would have starved to death in a corner of the slum, how could he become a little thief.

But even if he became a thief, he still didn't have enough silver to learn the skills of a thief.

If, if he had enough silver coins, he would have been able to learn the identification of various poisons, and also the analysis of various causes of death, he would naturally be able to determine the reason for this person's death, instead of letting others look at Aunt Migrena with such suspicion now!

Seeing the tears in the corners of Migrena's eyes, Annotby's lips were biting and bleeding!

The noise of the restaurant has attracted the attention of outsiders, and they are all probing their brains at the door.

"Ash, can you help them?" Pink Jingjing anxiously tugged at the corner of her clothes, and her little wings fanned straight away.

"Cut, why do you want to help them, humans are not good things." Nossi said coolly.

"No, Migrena is a good person, when she sees Ash, she treats her as her own, greeting her warmly, and she doesn't see her at all."

"Hmph, I think that's pretending at all, doesn't it mean that human beings are the most hypocritical?"

Pink Jingjing grimaced, "I'm not going to quarrel with you, na, Ash, do you know what's going on with that person?" ”

Ash drooped her eyelids and judged the cause of a person's death, which was not difficult for her.

For killers, in order to kill a person accurately, it is necessary to be familiar with the body structure, and over time, they are studying how to make the opponent's various parts of the organ strike, and at the same time, they are also slowly familiar with the cause of the strike.

Do you want to make a move...

Thinking of the good care that Molika and others had taken care of her along the way, her heart warmed, and the urging sound of pink crystal sounded in her ears, and she nodded slightly.

With tears in her eyes, Vivien frequently turned her attention for help to her trusted brother, and David knew that the best thing to do at this time was to call in the escort team to find out the cause of the man's death.

But as a result, their restaurant had to close for a period of time.

Thinking of the huge foreign debt left by his father, he hesitated for a moment, but he still prepared to go to the city guards.

Seeing his movements, Molika's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she was about to speak, when she saw a man in a gray cloak walk up to the dead man.

Sister? What is she going to do?

Ash flipped the corpse, and the dead man's lips were purple and black, his fists were clenched, and his waist and legs were curled, which was a common symptom of poisoned people. Seeing that this person did not forget to cover his abdomen with one hand when he died, it seems that the poison entered from the mouth and entered the abdomen.

The silver needle in her hand suddenly appeared, and in the blink of an eye, the food that had already been poked into the ground was collected again.

The food is non-poisonous, but the person died while eating, and there is no external cause, so the only possibility is that he swallowed poison and died.

Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, the man in the gray cloak actually pressed the dead man's chin open, made him open his mouth, and stretched out his finger to grope in the man's mouth.

The fingers groping in the mouths of the dead corpses dripping with saliva and blood were disgusting no matter how they looked at it, not to mention that almost all of these people who had just eaten were clutching their cramped stomachs, afraid that they would accidentally vomit out.

In the fairy space, Pink Jingjing also covered her eyes and exclaimed.

"Oh my God, Ash, can you tell how the human died by touching his teeth?"

Thinking of the disgusting corpse full of yellow teeth, Pink Jingjing couldn't help but wrinkle her little face.

Nocisi also tried to restrain his stomach from refluxing acid, staring at Ash's movements with big eyes, and said, "Ash must know something, otherwise he wouldn't have done it." ”

"Of course I believe in Ash, but... It's still disgusting. ”

Pink Jingjing murmured, "Reach into the corpse's mouth and pull it around in front of everyone's eyes, Ash, you, you really don't have the consciousness of being a lady at all." ”

It seems that there is a long way to go to change the ash.

As soon as Pink Jingjing thought of this, her little face fell, and suddenly, she remembered something, and hurriedly said, "Ash, you remember to wash your hands three times later!" ”

With a hint of scrutiny, Cerley looked at the ashes.

What does this human woman want to do?

With a hint of doubt and curiosity in his heart, he stared at Ash's movements.

I saw that after the gray fingers groped on the other party's teeth, the fingers were forced, and they actually broke off a posterior molar!

Yellow, stained teeth, and bleeding tooth decay!

For a moment, everyone turned their faces away in disgust.

In his eyes of contempt or disgust, he said coldly, "There is poison in this tooth." ”

"Huh?"

"Poison?"

"In the teeth?"

David perked up and said, "Are you saying that this man hid the poison in his teeth and bit it to death?" ”

Gray head, suddenly the restaurant was noisy again.

"What proof do you have!"

"That is, just pull out a tooth and say that there is poison in it?"

"I think it's out of nowhere!"

"That's right, I just saw her come in with Migrena, I'm sure they're in this group!"

Several young people dressed in ordinary clothes shouted, and they were coldly supervised, and suddenly felt that their necks were cold, and they couldn't talk about it.

The man in the cloak is obviously difficult to see, but his eyes are very bright.

Ash said unhurriedly, "There's still half of the poison left in this tooth. ”

Annottby hurriedly took a handkerchief, carefully removed the yellow tooth decay, and handed it to everyone.

At this glance, everyone suddenly realized that there was indeed poison wrapped in white clothes in the small half of the cavities, and now there was still a small part of the white clothes remaining.

The young men were obviously lacking in confidence, and one of them was pushed out and said, "Well, what is that!" ”

"You, how do you know it's poison?"

"yes, yes."

"And how can you be sure that this man died because he bit the poison in his teeth!"

"That's right, maybe you just pierced it with your own finger!"

For such a meaningless shout, Ash didn't bother to pay attention to it, and after nodding his head with David and the others, he went upstairs all the way under the surprised eyes of everyone.

David, Molika and the others were not fools, and immediately expressed their readiness to ask the escort team to investigate the poison.

Migrena's eyes were also red, and she told everyone that she would like to invite her, and the matter would be over.

"Sister, thank you very much this time."

In the restaurant where there were no guests, several people gathered around a table, and Molly pulled a gray wrist and thanked her.

Speechless, he silently received thanks from a few people.

"Thanks to you this time, otherwise our restaurant would have to close!" Migrena's hands were covered with gray fingers, and her beautiful eyes were full of gratitude.

Although the small restaurant must be suspended for a while, waiting for the city guards to confirm that the man died from poisoning drugs for biting his teeth, it is estimated that it will not take more than three days.

If the cause of the man's death had not been found out before the convoy arrived, the restaurant would have been closed down first, and it would not have been three days, maybe a week, or a month before it could reopen. By then, the rumors of dead people eating people in restaurants must have spread throughout the entire lower town, and business may not plummet, but it will definitely be greatly affected.

Originally, the price of food in Migrena's shop was very low, and now it is barely able to maintain a slight surplus, and it has to repay the debt of David's father, and it is good to have a hundred copper coins left every month, if they really have to close for a month, their family will not all drink the northwest wind.

"By the way, Ash, how do you know that the man hid the poison in his teeth?" Anotby's eyes were sparkling, and he meant not to give up without asking questions.

David knocked him on the head and said, "Skills are not all passed on, don't be embarrassed." ”

Annottby pursed her lips, the light in her eyes dimmed, and then she rolled her eyes again, and suddenly thought of something, and she snickered.

The conversation between the two made Ash keenly grasp the point, don't people here know how to hide poison with their teeth?

"Okay, okay, don't talk about those bad things, let's eat first."

Migrena spared no effort to make a table of good dishes for dinner.

The diet of the people here is very monotonous, except for meat, it is still meat, and it is rare to see vegetables.

But Migrina knows how to cook in different ways, and the same meat can be turned into steaks, broth, meatballs, steamed meat, etc., and the taste is just like the barbecue of Annotebi that Ash has eaten, which is very delicious, so that Pink Jingjing and Nossisi swallow their saliva and shout for her to help bring some back to the room.

"Ash, what's next for you?"

"Why don't you decide what to do yet, why don't you stay with us and wait until you've decided?" Migrena really likes this pretty girl.

She didn't say much when she saw Ash, and even her eyes were cold, so she guessed that she had had a very hard time.

Migrena had already sketched out the life of a girl who had lived in the mountains with her master since she was a child and had never been in contact with the outside world. Boring and hard study, no practice speaking object, no friends to make friends with, no space to play, all day long in addition to studying is practice, and there is a trace of love in her eyes when she looks at the gray.

She must have never had friends, so she didn't know how to get along with others.

But it doesn't matter, she will take care of her in the future, teach her, and love her as her own child.

Migrina is almost forty years old, but she is still not pregnant with a child, and when facing teenagers and girls who are only in her teens, she has always loved them as her own children, so she is so angry when she learns that Morica and the others will not say goodbye.

The same is true for Ash, her oriental appearance is only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl in the eyes of everyone, which makes Migrena's maternal love overflow.

Pink Jingjing hurriedly clapped her hands and said, "Ash, promise Migrena, let's live here, okay?" ”

"Well, I think it's good here, too." Nossisi agreed.

As two simple elves, although they don't know the dangers of the world, they have the ability to distinguish the kindness and malice of others, and Migrena's enthusiasm makes them feel warm in their hearts.

Ash was a little moved for a moment.

It's like pouring warm water into the open chest and being filled with warmth.

It's a strange feeling, but surprisingly not annoying her.

Gently, she bowed her head, and suddenly Morica and the others cheered loudly.

During the two days of waiting for the guards in the city, Annotte waited at the door early every morning to wait for Ash, and took her to get acquainted with the imperial capital.

Molica took Chere, and she had already swooped into the air three times in a row, hating her teeth so much, but the activity of getting up early was really one of the few physical jobs she did not achieve well, and it was difficult to achieve, so she had to vent her resentment in her heart.

"Ahh Annotby wiped her nose and muttered a few strange words, and hurriedly continued to introduce Ash to one of the attractions of their imperial capital, the Temple of the Moon Goddess.

"Hehe, this Moon Goddess Temple is a temple that is loved and revered by everyone."

Annottby's eyes flashed with a hint of nostalgia, and he said, "In the Temple of the Moon Goddess, there is a special elementary school. There, no matter how poor the family is, literacy education can be received there for free. ”

"Whenever a major holiday comes, the people of the temple give out free bread and water to the poor."

"In the winter, they often give cotton blankets and hot soup to people who are suffering from the cold."

"Although almost every temple on the continent will do good deeds, I still think the Moon Goddess Temple does the best."

"It's useless to rely on others, and if it weren't for the fact that so many children in the slums were taught to read and write, the slums would definitely be even more depressed now." ”

He was also a member of the former primary school, since some people in the slum learned to read, some became thieves, some went to help others settle accounts, some helped people write letters, and some joined mercenaries, earning more money than they used to do as coolies, greatly improving the living environment in the slums.

Now the slums are dirty, but there are no starving people to death. Although it was partly due to the emperor's funding, Annottby always felt that the Temple of the Moon Goddess was the most indispensable.
