The figure stared at Qin Ran in the restaurant, his eyes were sharper than his breath, like a knife, making people tremble unconsciously in their hearts.

The momentum is fierce, but there is no killing intent.

Qin Ran, who could clearly distinguish the difference, looked back at the other party calmly.

The black trench coat, boots of the same color, and a black jazz hat make the other party standing in front of the shadow give the illusion of becoming one with the shadow at any time.

"Hastati?"

The other party asked in a low tone.

Qin Ran frowned.

He could understand the other party's pronunciation, but he didn't understand the meaning.

Facing Qin Ran's incomprehension, the other party's fierce momentum was stunned, and after about a second, he asked again with some uncertainty: "Velites?" ”

The same strange pronunciation made Qin Ran's brows furrow even tighter.

"Please speak the lingua franca, thank you."

Qin Ran didn't plan to play riddles with the other party.

He wasn't good at this kind of roundabout way of speaking, even if the other person was probably the person he guessed was there.

Qin Ran didn't think that the other party's identity was different, so he needed to change the way he spoke.

In addition to facing real friends, Qin Ran has always been 'business'.

What's more, he is now playing another identity.

"You're not a 'herd'?"

The other party hesitated for a moment and asked with uncertainty.

"Herdsman?"

"Shepherd?"

Qin Ran asked rhetorically.

Such a rhetorical question makes the person in front of him more and more uncertain.

The other party looked at Qin Ran suspiciously.

The stunned look on his face doesn't seem to be fake, especially with that young appearance, it is easy to gain the trust of the other party.

But the other party, who has suffered similar losses more than once, does not dare to take risks easily.

The other party began to approach Qin Ran little by little, without a trace.

And Qin Ran?

He turned around and closed the door, returned to the table, sat down in his chair again, picked up a new magazine, and flipped through it.

Don't explain to someone who has doubts about you.

Any explanation is superfluous!

For the person who doubts you, it will only become a cover-up.

Even if the explanation is reasonable, it will only make the other person think that you have prepared carefully.

So, at this time, just wait.

Wait until the suspect initiates an inquiry or investigates.

Qin Ran believed that if the other party was really the person he guessed, it would be very easy to know his information.

In fact, the same is true.

Only half an hour later, the man returned.

After knocking on the door very politely and obtaining Qin Ran's permission, the man walked into the restaurant.

Compared with the sharpness just now, the other party seemed very gentle at this time.

The lines of his face are no longer as rigid as before, and after revealing some wrinkles, there is a trace of undisguised appreciation in his eyes.

"I'm sorry."

"I misunderstood."

"So, please don't mind, I'm Ed. Wang, like you, is a second-generation immigrant, but my father came here before your father. ”

The other took off his jazz cap and put it on his chest, leaning slightly.

"Luo Yan."

Qin Ran reported a fake name.

"Luo Yan?"

"Nice name."

"Nice to meet you Luo Yan, is this your restaurant with your brother?"

"Can you bring me a full meal?"

Ed. Wang asked with a smile.

"Roast rabbit 100, fried rice 15, chicken soup 10."

Qin Ran didn't act immediately, but quoted the price.

"It's a bit pricey."

Eddard who said that. Wang, but he was not slow in his actions, so he took out just the right banknotes, one 100, one 20, and one 5.

"Wait a minute."

Qin Ran took the money, checked it, and put it in the cash box.

Soon, the whole meal was placed on the tray and placed on Ed. In the presence of the king.

"It smells so good!"

"Great value for money!"

"Your brother's skills are awesome!"

Just wanted to be polite and open up the topic of Ed. Wang is obviously a person who knows the goods, just smelled it, and gave Luo Yan a thumbs up, and after that, he buried his head in eating, completely ignoring the words he had just thought of.

Eddard who chewed and swallowed even the bones of the roast rabbit. Only then did the king sigh in satisfaction.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten anything so good."

"Luo Yan, aren't you curious at all, what you came across?"

With an exclamation, Ed. The king looked at Qin Ran.

"In the mountains and forests, strange things go far beyond the cities."

Qin Ran said the answer that had been prepared a long time ago.

In Qin Ran's forged identity, he and Mimosa are both second-generation immigrants from a remote mountain village.

"That's right."

"Only in the mountains and forests can you exercise a body like yours."

Ed. Wang nodded.

Qin Ran didn't hide his body at the peak of ordinary people, and he couldn't see anything for ordinary people, but for Ed, who was a 'herdsman'. The king was astonished enough.

It's not like he hasn't seen a more powerful body.

However, it is very rare for this kind of growth to such an extent without guidance.

Only the inaccessible mountains and forests can have such people.

Because, there are so many things out there that are good for people.

As long as you get the same, you can completely change your life.

Of course, if you have enough luck.

Qin Ran in front of him, in Ed. Wang seems to be a lucky young man.

swallowed some items that are extremely beneficial to people, and did not explode and die, but grew up smoothly and came to the city.

Net worth is innocent.

Young and nurturable.

The most important thing is that he already has a certain amount of strength and is very courageous, such a reserve, as a member of the 'herdsman'. Naturally, the king will not let it go.

Ed. Wang took a deep breath and said directly, "Luo Yan, I hope you can join the 'Herdsman'!" ”

"Join the 'Herdsman'?"

Facing the expected invitation, Qin Ran was at peace in his heart.

If the other party didn't invite him, a seedling who looked good, Qin Ran would be suspicious, and at this time? Naturally, there was a hint of surprise on his face.

"That's right."

"Join the 'Herdsmen'!"

"What you just encountered is in the hands of the herdsman!"

"And ......"

Ed. Wang unconsciously lengthened his tone, and when Qin Ran looked at him, the herdsman said slowly: "Moreover, joining the 'herdsman' is your only way to live!" Otherwise, even if you leave Aicheng and return to the mountains and forests, you will be in big trouble! ”

"Why?"

Qin Ran asked very cooperatively.

"The roe deer died from the musk deer, and the deer died from the horns!"

"You're strong, far better than the average person."

"If you know a little skill, ten ordinary people are not your opponents."

"But because you're so strong, you'll be targeted by some guys...... If I'm not mistaken, you must have swallowed something special, right? ”

Talking, Eddard. The king looked at Qin Ran.

Qin Ran remained silent, but his heart kept turning.

Are there 'ingredients' in the mountains and forests that can directly make people stronger?

If......

Qin Ran, who thought of something, sat there quietly, quietly listening to Ed. The king's next words.

"What you swallow makes you strong and dangerous for you!"

"You are incomparably powerful when facing ordinary people, but you are not just facing ordinary people, just like the legends you hear in the mountains and forests, some of those legends are true."

"You've devoured something precious, and for those guys, it's a great tonic—they'll be staring at you, looking for your flaws until they devour you."

"Don't misunderstand, what you just encountered is all, those are just the tip of the iceberg, the powerful one of them is far beyond your imagination, you can't be an opponent at all."

"What's worse is that what you've done has exposed yourself, and all that awaits you is a disaster!"

Ed. Wang said seriously.

Qin Ran looked at the other party, the other party's eyes were sincere, and his face was full of sincerity.

But Qin Ran wouldn't believe everything that a stranger who had only met once said, especially if the other party wanted him to join the so-called 'herdsman', any words needed to draw a question mark in his heart.

And Ed. Wang continued.

"Are you wondering why I, as a 'herdman', didn't I do it?"

"We have our rules."

"We can't act until we really cause a vicious incident."

"To put it simply, even if we make a move in the end, you and your brother may meet with misfortune."

"You don't want your brother to be in misfortune, do you?"

Ed. Wang said, looking at Qin Ran expectantly.

Then, after seeing Qin Ran nodding, Ed. The king was overjoyed.

The number of 'herders' is not large.

One more reservist, in Ed. The king seemed to be all excellent.

"You promised?"

Almost, can't wait for Ed. Wang asked.

"Nope."

"I refuse."

"I don't want to get involved in any fighting, I just want to stay here in peace, prepare a meal for the hungry people at night, and get paid to feed myself."

Qin Ran shook his head and said the answer that had been prepared a long time ago.

In Qin Ran's plan, all he wanted was to get more information about this world from the other party's mouth, not to join the other party.

Qin Ran knew very well what it would be like to join the other party with his current strength.

Running errands.

Or slightly better.

Want better?

It's simply impossible.

You don't expect anything from a newcomer?

Don't learn behind the veteran for a while, and before getting the qualification to take charge of himself, the newcomer will always be the lowest group of labor.

It's similar in all walks of life.

Even a seemingly simple sale is no exception.

And even more so with the 'herdsmen'.

Qin Ran could completely imagine what it would be like for him to follow the other party every day before he gained enough strength and experience, although he didn't mind learning more, but at this moment he didn't have enough time to follow the rules to complete all this.

So, he had to choose another path.

Thankfully, he found it for the time being.

Fulfill the wishes of the dead and restore the source power!

Maybe only a small part can be recovered every time, but the reason why you can travel thousands of miles without accumulating sand into a tower is clear to Qin Ran.

Facing Qin Ran's unhesitating answer, Ed. The king sighed.

"It's a shame."

"Originally, I thought we could add one more to us."

Ed. Wang said with regret, suddenly, he took out a flashlight, aimed it at Qin Ran's eyes, and then pressed the switch.

A ray of light appeared, and Ed. The king's voice continued.

"However, I will still come here more often in the future, after all, the food here is really a pity, and you don't recognize me anymore...... Who am I? Why am I here? What am I going to do? ”

The light shone on the plate that was blocking Qin Ran's face.

The smooth porcelain plate reflects the light and reflects it into Ed. In the eyes of the king.

After the pupils contracted rapidly several times, Ed. Wang was stunned in place, and the flashlight in his hand also fell directly, Qin Ran's eyes were quick, and he grabbed the extinguished flashlight in his hand.

[Name: Amnestic]

[Type: Sundries]

[Quality: Rare]

[Attack: None]

[Defense: Strong]

[Attribute: Amnestic]

[Special Effect: None]

[Requirements: None]

[Can I bring out this copy: No]

[Note: The 'Herdsman' organization has developed a prop to gently appease ordinary people in modern times, which needs to be 'recharged' regularly, and it is best to wear sunglasses when using it, don't ask how this suggestion appeared, the person who made this suggestion has long forgotten why]

……

[Amnestic: To clear the memory within an hour, a mental judgment is required, and when the mental attribute exceeds E+, it will greatly affect the amnestic. 】

……

When Qin Ran held the flashlight-like [amnestic], the relevant attributes appeared on Qin Ran's retina.

"Is there a spiritual limit for ordinary people?"

Looking at the annotations in the attributes, Qin Ran glanced at the characteristics that could not bring out the copy, and simply stuffed the [amnestic] into Ed. The King's Pocket.

And when Qin Ran sat back in his chair, Ed. The king came back to God.

He looked around suspiciously.

Then, he stared at Qin Ran with his eyes, and his momentum unconsciously became fierce.

"Hastati?"

"Villitus?"

Just like when we first met an hour ago, Ed. Wang asked.

"We've talked about it before."

"I'm not a 'herd' and have no interest in joining a 'herd'."

Qin Ran said very simply.

Ed. Wang was suspicious.

Before?

I know him?

I talked to him?

Why don't I have a memory?

"You said you were willing to pay for the meal with some useful information, but I don't know why you chose to pull out that flashlight."

"Moreover, it is still a very difficult flashlight, you press it for a long time and it doesn't turn on, and it only turns on when you look down to check."

"If you go at night, I suggest you change it, there is a supermarket in the block, and the price is cheaper and brighter."

Qin Ran pointed to the other party's pocket, with the same doubts on his face, and a kind suggestion.

"Flashlight?"

Ed. Wang was stunned for a moment, and the other party, who reacted instantly, subconsciously touched his pocket, and when he held the [memory eraser], the slightly chaotic brain was finally clear.

Am I being cleared of my memory?
