Chapter Forty-Eight: Norred
For a small restaurant to survive, the skill of the chef is far more important than factors such as location and selected crowds.
Such is the case with the small restaurant outside the warrior sanatorium.
Even when the dish is heated, it is still delicious.
Especially the re-steamed braised pork, the unique soft meat quality when entering directly made Qin Ran squint.
"The materials are high-quality, and they almost melt in your mouth."
Qin Ran took a bite of rice, and when the rice and braised pork were beautifully combined, he said with a smile.
"That's good."
The makeup artist took a bite in Qin Ran's way, and also smiled.
Eckerd, on the other hand, was holding the phone and talking non-stop.
About five minutes later, the deputy director breathed a sigh of relief, put down his phone, and made an OK gesture to Qin Ran.
"According to your request, I found a bungalow with four floors up and down."
"There are three floors on the ground, the third floor is a terrace, and the basement floor was originally a room similar to a wine cellar, and it can be transformed into what you said in a day."
Eckerd said as he picked up his chopsticks.
However, before Eckerd could move his chopsticks, the door of the small restaurant was pushed open.
Mei Huasheng walked in with a cold face and stood in front of Qin Ran and the others.
"Officer Mei Huasheng, this restaurant has been chartered by me, and you have not received an invitation, please leave."
Eckerd put down his chopsticks and said in an unhappy tone.
As the original identity and status were consolidated again, Eckerd, who was originally dissatisfied with Mei Huasheng, was no longer polite.
"I need an explanation."
"Why didn't I get a notice as an advisor to the 'Psychic' program team?"
Mei Huasheng said coldly.
Eckerd was stunned.
Obviously, the deputy director didn't expect Mei Huasheng to ask about this.
Eckerd originally thought that Mei Huasheng appeared because they acted on their own without notifying the police at the scene.
And for this question, Eckerd has been prepared for a long time.
First, there were reporters all around at the time, and after notifying the police at the scene, there would inevitably be a series of reactions, and once the 'bombardment' was aroused, the whole plan would fail.
Second, although he did not notify the police at the scene, he greeted Mei Huasheng and Lin An's immediate bosses in advance.
Therefore, Eckerd is not worried about Mei Huasheng's questioning in this regard.
But Mei Huasheng obviously came prepared.
Or rather......
What's the news?
Eckerd, who had a guess in his heart, looked as usual.
"Your advisor status is about to be lifted, and we'll re-select the advisor."
Eckerd said slowly.
"But I still am."
"According to the contract we signed, I had to be present for any column while I was a consultant."
"Once the original location is violated, the filmed column cannot be played."
"And if it's played, it must be taken off the shelves, and ......"
"Come forward to clarify that it is a forgery!"
Mei Huasheng stood in place, bowing her head slightly, looking at Eckerd.
Under the gaze of the former female warrior, our deputy director adjusted his sitting posture uncomfortably, but immediately, after listening to Mei Huasheng's words, Eckerd, who was still a little dodgy, stood up straight.
His nose was almost attached to Mei Huasheng's nose.
His eyes stared at each other.
The angry gaze made Eckerd look like an angry bull.
"You're threatening me?"
"Tell you, I'm not going to accept any threats."
"It doesn't matter who's standing behind you!"
Eckerd said word for word.
Eckerd is not a person who does not fight back after being beaten, he has been designed by his opponents one after another, and he has already figured out how to fight back.
And now that Mei Huasheng jumped out, he naturally didn't mind taking Mei Huasheng first.
That's right!
Eckerd had already used Mei Huasheng as a pawn for his opponent to test him.
Otherwise, with Mei Huasheng's character, he would not have made such a threat at all.
As for the contract?
Even if what Mei Huasheng said is true, so what.
The initiative has always been in his hands.
He never gave up or changed.
However, Mei Huasheng didn't pay attention to the angry Eckerd at all, she turned her head to look at Qin Ran, and then, just bypassed Eckerd and walked in front of Qin Ran.
"Let me stay."
Mei Huasheng said.
"Why?"
Qin Ran asked without raising his head.
"I'm going to find the nest of the church in Norred."
"Norred?"
The unfamiliar noun made Qin Ran raise his head.
"The Bombinator you just caught is from the Norred Church, and his tattoo is the emblem of the Norred Church."
"My comrades and I used to fight these people."
"And all my comrades died, only I survived."
Mei Huasheng's voice became muffled.
"So, you want revenge?"
"But what's my business?"
Qin Ran raised his eyebrows.
"Because, you ruined their plans!"
"They're going to find you!"
"I can help you!"
Mei Huasheng's tone softened.
The voice didn't seem so cold.
But this did not make Qin Ran change his decision.
"No, I don't."
Qin Ran refused.
He wasn't used to working with people like Mei Huasheng.
That hasn't changed.
If he could let the other party leave, Qin Ran would definitely not mind.
Even if the other party has abilities that ordinary people don't have, it's the same
He doesn't need such help.
He was more accustomed to working alone.
Therefore, Qin Ran glanced at Eckerd, who wanted to speak, stopped the other party's words, and then looked at Mei Huasheng like this.
The former female warrior stood there, hesitated for a few seconds, then turned and left.
She knew that she couldn't come up with something that would make Qin Ran's heart move.
also knew Qin Ran's perception of her.
So, leaving is the best option.
Of course, leaving doesn't mean giving up.
"It's Norred Church!"
"Damn it!"
"I should have thought that only such a madman church could have such a madman who cares about people's lives!"
"They shout to purify the world, but they are the ones who deserve to be purified the most!"
Looking at Mei Huasheng's back as he disappeared behind the door, Eckerd's face was ugly, he looked at Qin Ran, and said in a solemn tone.
Eckerd, who is the deputy director, had heard about this crazy organization from some secret sources.
Thinking of what those madmen had done, Eckerd immediately continued.
"2567: I'll find you bodyguards right away."
"And the place before, it's too remote and unsafe."
"I'll pick a new place."
"Lin. Amy, you follow Qin Ran 24 hours a day now, if there is anything wrong, report it to me immediately. ”
"Go to me tonight."
"It's not as good as a real safe house, but it's much better than a regular hotel room."
Faced with Eckerd's arrangement, the makeup artist on the side nodded stupidly.
Undoubtedly, makeup artists have not heard of the reputation of the Norred Church at all.
Qin Ran also hadn't heard of it.
But from Eckerd's reaction, he had guessed enough things.
After all, there is no shortage of crazy beings in every world.
Such a crazy existence is enough to deserve everyone's vigilance.
But Qin Ran couldn't arouse his interest for the time being.
Because, something that interests him more has appeared.
Qin Ran's gaze looked outside the restaurant.
In the evening sunset, a group of people who are almost in the sunset are slowly approaching the small restaurant.
