Chapter 18 Talk
Green beans are coated in egg wash and fried in piping hot fat.
The white tofu is steamed in a bowl.
When the lid was lifted, the water vapor rose, and the hot oil mixed with green beans and frangipani was poured on the tofu.
With a snort, the aroma of the beans immediately suppressed the water vapor.
And for the next two minutes, it was all sizzling.
Qin Ran took the long-handled soup spoon, ignored the temperature of the hot mouth, and directly dug out a spoonful.
Crunch.
The first bite is the crispiness of the green beans.
The second bite is the softness of the tofu.
And the combination of the two is the fried frangipani.
If it's just green beans, it will look too dry.
However, if it is just tofu, it will look soggy and soft.
But with fried frangipani, everything is different.
The fluffiness and crunch are like a bridge, linking the two extremes together.
"Not bad."
Even if it was the fifth dish, Qin Ran still ate the food one spoonful after another, quickly finished all the food, picked up the napkin on the side, wiped his mouth, and then commented.
It's not perfunctory, it's genuine.
It's just that......
In the words, there was a trace of great disappointment.
Because, 'gluttony' has not changed in the slightest.
When discovering how to improve the power of one of the original sins, 'Gluttony', Qin Ran had his own plan before entering [Demon City II.].
While completing the main quest, you can taste a variety of delicacies.
Qin Ran was looking forward to this.
And the food itself did not disappoint Qin Ran.
It's a pity that it's the greed of 'gluttony'.
"What an original sin!"
Qin Ran sighed again.
Fortunately, Qin Ran, who had a similar experience in the previous dungeon world, was prepared at the beginning.
It's just like Qin Ran's guess when facing a 'person' like Pisk.
The world in front of you is a world of hidden demons.
Even, in some ways, it's a world of demons.
Under such a premise, an ordinary person can become one of the rulers of the underground world of Yancheng, and Qin Ran will not believe anything.
Demons, or half-demons, should be the identity of the other party.
And the series of battles that followed confirmed Qin Ran's guess.
Similarly, such a battle also made Qin Ran gain a lot.
A total of six loot.
Five of them are magical, and one is rare, which is from Pisk.
It is an eyeball-shaped item the size of a one-dollar coin.
[Name: The Remnant Eye of Hao]
[Type: Jewelry]
[Quality: Rare]
[Attributes: 1, repulsion; 2. Crushed】
[Requirements: None]
[Can I bring out this copy: Yes]
[Notes: It was once an organ of a great demon, but it was accidentally damaged during cutting, and despite the efforts of the craftsmen to repair it, its strength was still greatly reduced.] 】
……
[Repulsion: A single weight within a radius of 25 meters that is judged to be A-level and pulled in front of you out of thin air, or pushed away]
[Crush: During the repulsion process, complete a crushing attack above the stronger level at any time]
……
Qin Ran played with this special ornament, and then checked those magic-level equipment one by one, and when he confirmed that there was nothing to care about, he put it all away and looked at the door.
There was already a sloppy quarrel outside.
Even if he didn't need to listen to the accent, Qin Ran already knew who was coming through his steps.
"Ask the detective to come in."
Qin Ran said to Clay.
"Yes, Boss."
Clay ran out at a brisk pace.
After a while, Clay walked in with two men.
One is Qin Ran's acquaintance, Old Inspector Oak, and the other is a strange young man.
Moreover, compared to the old detective's calmness, this young man was a little restrained, or to be precise, a little afraid.
"Ethan. Hunt you start. Tie. Shelf? ”
The old detective looked at the chef who was 'invited' by Carey on the side, and his face sank.
"Who do you think you're talking to, old fellow?"
Clay stood at Qin Ran's table with a cruel smile, blocking the old detective's gaze at Qin Ran, and looked at the old detective and the young man with malicious eyes.
The old detective looked at Clay without fear.
The young man's face gradually turned pale under Clay's gaze.
"A bunch of bastards, of course."
The old detective sneered.
"Old fellow, you ......"
"Hey, hey!"
"Do you really think I'm going to hit you?"
"I'm not one of those stupid people!"
"Still, I need to warn you, if you say that, I'll sue you for slander!"
Clay roared, but immediately burst into laughter.
He looked at the old inspector's ploy, and turned to look at the cook.
"Tell him I'm tied. Racked you? ”
"No, no......"
"Do you have any other specialties?"
The chef's stammering answer was interrupted by Qin Ran.
"No, no."
The chef's answer was still stammering.
Looking at Qin Ran's gaze, his eyes were full of fear and unease.
Qin Ran frowned, he knew that it was his identity at the moment that made the other party like this, but for the sake of the future plan, he couldn't explain it at all.
Even, any superfluous explanation, will make his plans go down the drain.
Therefore, Qin Ran waved his hand and motioned for the other party to leave.
The trembling other party turned around and ran away as if he had been amnestied, and he didn't even want his own kitchen utensils.
"Go and give it back to him."
"And, settle the meal money."
"It's really giving money, not what you think it is, you know?"
Qin Ran emphasized.
Although he is now playing Ford's cousin, this does not mean that the other party's cousin is a person who eats overlord meals.
"Got it, Boss."
When facing Qin Ran, Clay, who was still rebellious just now, immediately nodded respectfully and chased after him quickly.
Suddenly, the entire restaurant was left with Qin Ran and the old detective, as well as the temporary assistant.
The old detective looked at Qin Ran with a scrutinizing gaze.
The man in front of him, before today, he had not heard of it.
But just one day later, the other party's name had spread throughout Yan City.
The prestige built on the battles and corpses not only makes everyone hear the name, but also makes people tremble.
And such a person will be kind enough to pay the bill?
The old detective was a little unconvinced.
"I like the rules."
"It protects the weak."
"It also makes me more formal, so I won't spoil it."
Qin Ran said the words of explanation that he had prepared for a long time.
"Since you're not willing to break the rules, then it's all easy to say!"
"Now let your people get out of the other neighborhoods right away!"
The old inspector didn't mean to say hello.
He didn't want to be here for almost a moment.
He was afraid that he couldn't help it, so he opened a few holes in the other party's skull.
So, get straight to the point
"Leave?"
"Of course there is no problem, but that was after I talked to him."
Qin Ran asked rhetorically with a smile on his face, and then raised his hand to point at the old inspector's pale and fearful temporary assistant.
