Delbon blinked, and the thick dark circles under such a blink were almost connected.

This member of the 'Clock Tower' stationed in the 'Ground Reconnaissance Bureau' subconsciously wanted to refute.

However, he thought about it again.

I think Jason's words seem to make a lot of sense.

You know, use more authentic language to attract people, and then there is an unexpected twist.

It's definitely going to be impressive.

It will also make people feel that the person who sent this message is interesting.

And how important an interesting start is to strangers, Delbon knows it.

What's more, it can also show an interesting soul!

Maybe I should give it a try?

After thinking for two seconds, Delbon took out his notepad, and he carefully recorded Jason's previous words - as an official member of the 'Clock Tower', Delbon has cultivated a good habit of recording since childhood.

Jason looked at the recorded Delbon and didn't interrupt the other party.

It's not just because the words he just said are genuine, not ridiculous.

Also because Tonio walked out of the kitchen again.

As before, the metal trolley squeaked, squeaked.

"Please!"

After serving the 'Warrior Pot' to the table, Tonio said with a chef's bow.

This time, though, his gaze wasn't deflected.

He watched Jason pick up the pot with a smile on his face, watched Jason open his mouth, and watched as the food in the 'warrior pot' decreased visibly with the sound of intensive swallowing and chewing.

The chef sweated slightly.

It's not like nothing else Tonio has seen someone who can eat a 'warrior pot' on their own.

In fact, he has seen quite a few such people.

Because of the special physique of the 'mysterious side person', he can eat much more than normal people, especially in the camp of 'Unyielding Copper', the more powerful the warrior and knight, the more he can eat.

But even those big battles, high-level knights will slow down when they finish eating the first 'warrior pot' and face the second one.

The stomach capacity is limited!

But His Excellency Jason in front of him, facing the second 'warrior pot', still ate it at a gobbling rate...... Completely surpassed the 'mysterious side person' in his cognition!

Worthy of being the second 'ship slasher'!

Thinking to himself, Tonio turned and walked to the kitchen.

He hadn't forgotten what Jason had just said about two pots.

The sound of swallowing and chewing in his ears did not affect Delbon, who had just eaten, and after recording Jason's words, he suddenly had an explosion of inspiration and had some thoughts of his own.

Without hesitation, Derbon began to summarize his thoughts and take notes.

Undoubtedly, this is quite a waste of time.

However, Lord Jason is eating, so it is not a waste.

With this in mind, Delbon is immersed in his own world, not knowing the passage of time.

When the member of the Clock Tower stationed in the Ground Reconnaissance Bureau came back to his senses, he found that His Excellency Jason was still eating.

"Haven't you finished yet?"

Delbon asked with a smile at Toneo.

He didn't feel anything strange.

After all, this is a hundred-pound 'warrior pot'!

It's already surprising enough to be able to eat the next serving, and to eat the second serving?

That's really beyond the imagination of most people.

So 'chewing slowly' is normal in Delbon's view.

As for the third part?

Delbon never thought anyone would be able to eat three servings of the 'Warrior Pot', not even Lord Jason.

But soon, Delbon realized that something was wrong.

Why is Jason's chewing and swallowing speed a little fast?

And Tonio's face is also a little wrong.

Slightly whitish and sweaty.

It seems to have exerted a great deal of physical strength.

And what is there that can make Tonio, as a chef, consume a lot of physical energy?

Cook!

Delbang can't think of anything else but this.

But Delbon clearly knew that with Tonio's strength, even if one person presided over a banquet of 100 people, there would be no sense of fatigue, and even, if the number of people was one or two times more, there would be no problem.

And now Tonio's face is full of exhaustion!

How much did Lord Jason eat?!

Delbon, who reacted quickly, asked Tonio with a frightened look while holding the wallet in his pocket.

As a member of the Clock Tower's Ground Reconnaissance Bureau, Derbon has a good salary.

Not only will he be able to receive one from the 'Clock Tower' every week, but the 'Ground Reconnaissance Bureau' will not treat him badly.

But as a 'magician', he needs to buy magical materials and a decent amount of books.

The former is expensive per unit.

Latter?

It's not expensive.,But there's a new one every month.。

Over time, it is also a large expense.

Especially some commemorative editions and extras cost more money.

Therefore, he did not have much money to spare.

Moonshine is his label.

It's like being a single aristocrat.

In other words, the two go hand in hand.

No way!

I can't go on like this!

I still need a whole family to restrain myself!

Unconsciously, Delbon's thoughts were a little wandering, but his eyes did not leave his friend.

Under Delbon's gaze, Tonio raised his hand and compared to a 'two' number.

"Two copies?"

"This is the third?"

Delbon breathed a sigh of relief.

It's only the third part, it's okay, it's okay!

He could afford it.

It's just that......

Delbon looked at his friend suspiciously, it was just three 'warrior pots', how could he be so tired?

Don't?

Suddenly, something came to mind.

He smiled a man at his friend.

He finally knew why his friend prepared fresh oysters.

"Toneo, unnecessary consumption is useless!"

"Do you need me to give you a list of recommended books for the master level?"

"For novices, the "Tale of the Hypnotist" I chased before is very good and suitable for beginners."

"It just so happens that I have a collection of 1-60 volumes, as well as 2 special edition volumes, and 1 commemorative edition!"

"If you want to see it, I'll lend you."

Derbon stood up, put his arm around Toneo's shoulders, lowered his voice and spoke to himself, a touch of inexplicable pride unconsciously appeared on his face.

In such a state, Delbon did not see his friend's face become ugly.

"I don't need to."

"I've decided to dedicate my life to cooking."

Tonio said righteously.

"That's too monotonous, isn't it?"

"Life should be colorful, and it must have colors!"

"And the book, officially the best choice!"

Delbon, who simply thought that his friend was embarrassed, began to persuade his friend, as if to pull his friend back on the right path, and then, with a slap on their head, said, "That's right, that's right, I still have a recommendation!" It is a classic entry point than "The Story of the Hypnotist": "The Legend of Brother Cheng"! ”

"20 servings!"

Tonio interrupted Delbon's words.

"What?"

Delbon, who was thinking about what books to recommend to his friends, didn't come back to his senses at all.

"I said Mr. Jason ate 20 servings."

Tonio reiterates.

"Impossible!"

"How could it be 20 copies?!"

Delbon blurted out almost subconsciously, and then, Tonio nodded, correcting his words: "Well, it's wrong, it's 21 copies!" ”

"Each serving of the 'warrior pot' costs 3,500 yuan, and the total of 21 servings is 73,500."

"Cash? Credit card? ”

Tonio looked at Delbon earnestly.

Derbon's sweat began to overflow, and a feeling of softness spread throughout his body.

"How much?"

He asked, his lips trembling.

"73,500 in total."

"Your share, even if I asked you, is already exempt."

Tonio added.

73500！

The 'Clock Tower' subsidy is 6,000 per month.

The monthly salary of the 'Ground Reconnaissance Bureau' is 6,250 (3,750 for the base, 2,000 for meals, and 500 for transportation).

One meal eats half a year's salary?

Equivalent to 20 sets of "Hypnotist Stories"!

Or 10 sets of complete versions of "The Legend of Brother Cheng"!

It is also equivalent to 3 sets of collector's editions of the Bible of Light!

When this number appeared in Delbon's ears again, Delbon's brain involuntarily calculated, and the more he calculated, the more Delbon trembled, especially when he thought of the money he could have bought so many books, but after Jason's meal, Delbon's heart was about to bleed.

He regrets it!

Why talk so much about promising Jason to invite Jason to dinner?

Almost subconsciously, Delbon looked at the two stacks of bills and the check in the corner of the table.

I don't know if I can ......

"You said you would invite me to dinner."

"And these?"

"It's mine."

Just as Delbon was about to speak, Jason put down the 'warrior pot' and slipped two stacks of bills and checks into his pocket.

To this, Delbon grinned bitterly, but did not refute anything.

As Jason said, these are Jason's.

Because, if it weren't for Jason, he would definitely return the two stacks of bills and checks to the two young men, and he would have been deceived by the other party.

"You deserve it."

Delbon replied, and without waiting for Jason to speak, Delbon continued: "Excellency Jason, please go first, I have something to talk about with Tonio, and I will go back to the suburbs to find you at John's later." ”

Jason, who was going to ask Delbon if he needed to borrow money, looked at Delbon's appearance and finally didn't speak.

"Thanks for the hospitality."

Jason said solemnly to Tonio.

The other party's cooking skills made him satisfied, especially the amount of the 'Warrior Pot', which made him even more happy.

"You're welcome next time."

Tonio was equally happy.

Although he was tired at this time, he felt that his heart was full of energy when he met a diner like Jason - by cooking for Jason, he found his shortcomings.

Physical!

His physical strength is so poor!

And that's what he's been looking for, but he's been ignoring.

Now, he's finally found it.

As long as he reinforces this, Tonio is sure that he will take his cooking skills to the next level.

So, Tonio sent Jason outside the restaurant, and after watching Jason leave, he turned back.

At this time, Delbon stood there with a serious face.

After Jason left, he was finally able to face the biggest dilemma of his life calmly.

"Tonio, are we friends?"

Delbon asked.

"Yes."

"Still one of the few friends."

"But my brother is settling accounts."

Tonio replied with the same seriousness.

"Can I take credit?"

Delbon asked solemnly again.

"Small business, no credit."

Tonio replied with an unchanged expression.

"Do you accept the mortgage?"

"I'm using my most expensive set of Investigators as collateral, don't worry, I'll ......"

"Let's go wash the dishes."

Delbon's words were interrupted, and Tonio looked at his friend and said lightly.

Then, ignoring his friend, he walked straight to the kitchen.

Call!

Derbon took a deep breath and immediately followed his friend into the kitchen.

Wash the dishes, wash the dishes!

At least, he doesn't have to be separated from his Investigator.

Of course, there are still some questions that need to be asked.

"How long do I need to wash?"

"Two years."

"What?"

"Aren't we friends?"

"It's because we're friends that I've allowed you to pay off your meal in this way, and I've already calculated it for you at a higher than market hourly rate, so if you're not satisfied, you can borrow ...... from Lord Jason."

"No, I'll wash the dishes."

Tonio glanced at his friend in surprise, as if he didn't understand why he didn't want to borrow money.

"Men are romantic creatures, they would rather grit their teeth and hold on than say that they will borrow, I am a real man, I choose my romance."

With words like an oath, Derbon walked into the kitchen with a majestic spirit, like a warrior on the battlefield.

Tonio watched from behind him, smiling, and shaking his head slightly.

Why did he become friends with Delbon?

Because, he understands what Derbon says about 'romance'.

Or rather......

Persistence is the right thing.

"I'm going to hone my cooking skills too."

Tonio muttered to himself.

Everyone has their own understanding of persistence.

Delbon: That's the case.

Toneo is so.

Jason?

It's no exception.

After a delicious meal at Tonio's Restaurant, he began to look for other food in the 'Memory Street'.

Naturally, there is more than just one restaurant in Tonio.

At least on the way here, Jason saw two.

One of these two is similar to a tavern, and the other is a barbecue restaurant.

Jason first patronized the kebab restaurant.

The ingredients and ingredients are very good and very fresh, but for Jason, who has just tasted Toneo's craftsmanship, the craftsmanship here is a little mediocre.

Jason, who had eaten a stack of bills, turned around and walked out of the barbecue shop to the tavern.

Even with the door closed, he could smell the rich smell of wine and the food mixed in with it.

Taverns generally have appetizers.

For wine, Jason remained calm.

And the appetizer?

Jason loved it.

But just as Jason raised his hand on the door and was about to push it, the noise from behind the tavern door suddenly disappeared.

Be quiet!

The sudden silence contrasts sharply with the bustling atmosphere of the Street of Memories.

An eerie aura began to permeate.

The corners of Jason's mouth curled, and his palms strained slightly.

Squeak.

The door opened.
