Chapter 043: I'm not bald, but I also feel like I'm getting stronger

"What, scared?"

Xia Nuo snorted, pulled back the wanted warrant from Sanji's hand with a snap, and then tore it to pieces with three blows and two blows, and said with an unhappy face, "Ten million Bailey, the navy really looks up to me, they treat a twelve-year-old boy like this?" Still shameless? ”

"The Navy's wanted warrants never depend on age."

Zhepu stroked his beard and frowned, "Judging from the newspaper, it seems that the navy regards you as a member of the Tado Pirates, and Tado and they have already set off for the Great Voyage, so they can no longer be measured by the bounty in the East China Sea, you are in such a big limelight, and it is really unjust to be rewarded with 10 million." ”

Xia Nuo held his forehead, his face speechless.

"So, what are you going to do? If you are recognized by the bounty hunter, you will have a headache in the future. Probably a little hungry, Zhepu asked Sanji to go to the kitchen to get some toast slices, and asked as he chewed on it, looking at Xiano.

"What else can I do, I'm not interested in being a pirate now, it's a big deal in the past few years, it's just a matter of going out of the restaurant less." After thinking about it for a while, Xia Nuo shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly and said, "Anyway, I'm still young now, and my body is developing, and after these few years, even if that guy named Sika is in person, he won't recognize me, what are you afraid of." ”

As he spoke, he glanced upwards, glanced at a few strands of bangs fluttering on his forehead, and suddenly dropped the sentence "You guys will wait", and hurried upstairs.

"What is Brother Xia Luo doing?" Looking at Xiano's disappearing back, Sanji asked stupidly.

"Well, the old man almost guessed it, this kid is quite witty......" Zhepu squinted, and immediately reacted violently, glaring back at him, "What's the matter with you!" Still standing there stupidly, hurry up and clean up and eat breakfast, there is a lot of preparation work today, don't you come over early to help, do you want to start business early? ”

"Got it."

Sanji snorted and muttered something to himself, then stepped up the spiral staircase in the middle of the restaurant, ready to wash up first.

As a result, before he reached the second floor, a rush of footsteps suddenly sounded, and in the next moment, he almost collided with a figure, and hurriedly stopped, and when he looked up, Sanji was stunned, and stammered:

"You ......"

"What's wrong? Is this unrecognizable? The visitor stretched out a hand, pinched his chubby face, and smiled.

"Not really."

Sanji looked Xia Nuo up and down several times, and then scratched his head and said, "But Brother Xia Nuo, you seem to have become a lot more handsome when you come here."

What appeared in front of him was naturally Xia Nuo, at this moment, the outfit on his body had not changed, but there had been a lot of changes on it, the original messy bangs on his forehead were cut to a position flush with the hairline, revealing a smooth forehead, and the black hair that was half long and not short was tied into a bunch with a long strip of dark blue fabric at the moment, and it was tied behind his head.

Although it was only a hairstyle that was changed, Xia Nuo's temperament and face were a little refreshed, the original delicate and immature, at this moment quietly transformed into a vigorous heroism, and the eyebrows were no longer covered by bangs, and were classified into sideburns, making the whole person look a lot fresher and more mature.

Unless it was premeditated or had seen him before, it would be difficult for others to associate Xia Nuo in front of him with the figure in the photo just by relying on that wanted warrant for long-range shooting, and if others did not observe it carefully.

"You little devil can speak, why, still expect me to teach you swordsmanship?"

Xia Nuo's hand suddenly exerted force, and after squeezing Sanji in pain, he let go of his hand with a smile, and after Sanji glared at him dissatisfied, he snorted and didn't speak again, and flashed around and went to the bathroom.

"Well, that's good."

Seeing Xia Nuo walking towards this side, Zhepu nodded slightly, "This can indeed avoid a lot of risks, but a real professional bounty hunter, I'm afraid you can't hide it, so no matter what, it's better for you not to go out in the past two years." ”

"It's a small thing."

Seeing that Zhepu agreed with the change in his dress, Xia Nuo was relieved, and after grinning, he turned around and walked towards the kitchen, brought out all the breakfast that had been prepared inside, and placed them on the table one by one.

"Well, this is the first meal the three of us have together, it's kind of interesting." Zhepu glanced at the food on the table, then glanced at the half-bitten toast in his hand, and suddenly laughed, "Then, the old man should stop for a while, and wait for the little ghost from Sanji to come over, and then eat together." ”

"I'm getting old, what's the sudden hypocrisy."

Xia Nuo pouted and said, but he did not start in advance, and after looking at the sky outside the restaurant, he suddenly looked at Zhepu as if he remembered something, "By the way, uncle, which newspaper did you publish your recruitment posting......

"I was too lazy to run far, so I found a nearby newspaper to publish it, well, it's the GLP Northwest Newspaper, the social edition."

"Sure enough, that kind of tabloid, is it really useful......

"Ahem, don't worry about that." Zhepu was a little embarrassed, and just saw that Shanzhi had come down, so he beckoned him to come and sit down, and said in a muffled voice, "Besides, anyway, ordinary chefs, the old man still can't look down on it, and it is better to lack than to abuse, but the old man in this notice has made the conditions clear, and the chef who comes has to have an appetite for the old man, and, in addition." ”

Speaking of this, Zhepu picked up the fried egg with a fork and wrapped it directly, and said indistinctly in his mouth, "The old man also advertised the restaurant on the front page of the newspaper, so that there will be customers coming to the door soon." ”

"Well, when you say that, I suddenly have a bad premonition......" Xia Nuo felt a little pain inexplicably, and said with a humble eye, "I always feel that you will attract some amazing guys......"

…………

As an African with an extremely dark face, but who has always considered himself to be the emperor of Europe, Xia Nuo never thought that his hunch would be confirmed so quickly this time.

Three days later, a sunny afternoon.

On this day, the doors of Bharati's restaurant were open, and classical music drifted from the gramophone in the corner of the wall, slowly wafting between the beams and columns, but the dozens of tables on the first floor were empty, and there was not a single customer in sight.

At the door of the kitchen, Xia Nuo was crouching against the wall and choosing vegetables, looking boredly at the empty scene in front of him, while behind him, Zhepu was sitting on a small bench peeling potatoes, and Sanji was practicing cooking alone, except for the occasional gurgling of the soup in the pot, everything was so silent.
