Chapter 60: The Strange Merchant

The sky was getting dark, the sun was setting, and before they knew it, the two of them had been walking in this Garland market for a long time, but after shopping for a long time, the two of them did not find a favorite gift suitable for Meow Lili.

For a while, Eisen was also a little discouraged, and was ready to prepare a gift for Meow Li in the coming day, but thinking that it was no longer Children's Day after today, the memories of the two would be greatly reduced, so he rekindled his spirit to look for Garland Street.

But in fact, there is no concept of Children's Day in this world, or this is just a deception that Aisen remembers his hometown and gives himself.

Just as the two of them walked to the end of the market, an inconspicuous shop attracted Aisen's attention, not only intentionally or unintentionally, but the location of the shop was extremely remote, and it was difficult for anyone to detect its existence without looking closely.

There are a lot of strange knick-knacks in the shop, many of which have never been seen before in Garan, but what really attracts Eisen is one of the beautifully decorated pendants inlaid with a pink kitten.

When he saw it for the first time, Eisen was deeply attracted by the kitten pendant and was delighted to find a suitable gift for Meow Lili.

But just as Aisen was about to walk towards the shop, Han Yan on the side suddenly grabbed him and whispered in his ear, "That Aisen, let's not go to other places to see, this shop is a little weird, no one will put the shop in such a dark corner."

"It's okay, I'm just going over to take a look, and with the strength of the two of us, the owner of the shop doesn't dare to do anything to us," Aisen said, looking at the shop in the dark corner.

Looking at Aisen's firm eyes, Han Yan did not say anything to dissuade him, and followed him to the shop in the dark corner.

When they approached the two of them, they found that the shop was managed by a strange merchant with a rickety body and a whole body wrapped in clothes, because of the obscuration of the clothes, Aisen could not see his face clearly, or even define his gender, but his round eyes gave Aisen a familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Although Aisen and Hanyan approached him, the merchant still watched the passers-by intently as if he had not seen them, as if he was looking for something, but every time he saw a pedestrian, his eyes unconsciously revealed an angry disgust, which Aisen had only seen in her eyes when she first met Meow Lili.

"Aisen, this merchant won't have a problem, he doesn't look at his vicious eyes and is not a good person, or... Forget it" At the same time, Han Yan also noticed the ferocity in the eyes of the strange businessman, and whispered to Aisen.

"It's okay, he's just an ordinary person, I don't feel magic in him, don't worry," Aisen said leisurely.

Before, Aisen had found out through the detection system that the strange merchant in front of him was just an ordinary person with no magical powers, so he was not overly worried that the strange merchant would pose a threat to the two of them.

Although the strange merchant ignored the existence of the two of them, Aisen still asked him very politely, "Excuse me, how do you sell this kitten pendant?"

Under Aisen's words, the strange merchant glanced at Aisen, looked at him with disgust, and said sharply in a mellow male voice, "Five hundred gold coins, leave if you don't have any money"

At this time, Aisen realized that the strange merchant was a man, and from his tone, he sensed that the strange merchant had no intention of selling things at all, so he deliberately raised the price to persuade the two to quit.

At this time, Han Yan on the side saw the extremely poor attitude of the strange businessman, and immediately frowned, and said unhappily, "Hey, what kind of attitude do you have, we are customers who come to buy things, do you treat customers like this?"

"I don't care what kind of customer you are, if you don't want to buy it, go away!" Under the cold face's reprimand, the strange merchant not only did not retreat, but said even more viciously.

Seeing that the strange merchant's attitude was even worse, Han Yan wanted to argue with him again, but Aisen suddenly stopped him and said politely to the man, "Boss, I sincerely want to buy this kitten pendant, but can this price be cheaper?"

Although Aisen did not have that much money, the budget of the kitten pendant was completely beyond his imagination, and in this case, he did not want to give in and let this strange merchant take advantage.

In this regard, the strange merchant just waved his hand impatiently to Aisen, and just as he was about to expel Aisen and Han Yan, his movements suddenly stopped, his round eyes suddenly became extremely vertical, and he stared at Aisen fiercely and said, "You... Isn't there a cat man slave?"

Looking at the murderous aura that was about to overflow in the eyes of the strange businessman, Aisen suddenly guessed the identity of the strange businessman in front of him, and said peacefully and calmly, "No... I didn't treat her as a slave, she's my friend, you don't have to worry"

And after that, Aisen also told the strange man in front of him about saving Meow Lili.

Under Aisen's sincere words, the fierceness in the eyes of the strange merchant gradually disintegrated, nameless tears flowed out of his resolute eyes like a spring, choked up to hold Aisen's hand, and thanked him gratefully, "Thank you, thank you really for saving Lili..."

"Ricky is still in my dormitory, why don't you go and pick her up now, if she knows that her father is not dead, she will be very happy."

From the very beginning, Eisen guessed that this strange man was actually his father, who was reasonably believed to be dead, and that his tightly wrapped clothes were probably only to cover his cat ears and tail, which were the symbol of the cat people, so as not to be discriminated against by passers-by.

"No... No need, I'm just living to make sure that reason is okay, and since a kind human like you is willing to adopt her, I don't have to worry about it" The man paused for a moment, and finally made up his mind, and said unbearably.

"But..."

"You don't have to persuade me, I will leave here after tomorrow, and leave the city where humans live forever, I love Rie deeply, how could I not want Rie to be by my side forever, but because I love her, I hope that she can live happily, if she is with me, she can only spend her life in bumps" The man's resolute eyes were full of tears, and he couldn't bear to sigh softly.

"But am I really worthy of your trust, knowing that I'm one of the humans you hate," Eisen hesitated for a moment, then whispered.

The man smiled relievedly at Aisen's self-deprecation, put his hand on Aisen's shoulder, and said softly, "Child, or you don't know, when a cat person trusts a person very much, it will secrete a unique smell, and I smell this smell on your body, and this smell is secreted by Lili."

At this moment, Eisen suddenly remembered that Rie rubbed on his chest in the morning, or perhaps the smell that he had contracted at that time.

"Since Li Li trusts you so much, then how can I not trust you, can I entrust Li Li to you, or the most correct decision I have ever made in my life" The man looked up to the sky and sighed deeply.

"That's... Before parting, let's see reason, I really can't bear to hide the fact that her biological father is still alive, this... It's too cruel to her" In the man's sincere words as if parting, Aisen couldn't help but be moved, and couldn't bear to say to him.

"I'm afraid that after meeting Lili, the determination that I have built up so hard in my heart will collapse, and I am afraid that I will not be able to control myself and do not want to leave her..."The man covered his head with a struggle and said in pain.

At the same time, Aisen, who has never experienced father's love, experienced the greatness of father's love for the first time from this unknown man, in order to make his children happy, he was willing to give up his most important thing as a father, but this still made Aisen feel extremely unbearable.

After being silent for a long time, Aisen suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and took out a crystal clear ball from the space ring, this small ball is called the video ball with the function of recording, a bit like a video recorder on the earth, but it is actually an extremely simple magic guide, but although it is simple, it is very practical.

Under Griffin's tutelage, Eisen also easily grasped the basic principles of the video ball.

"In that case, then I'll use this video ball to record a video for you, and you can relay everything you want to say to Li Li through this video ball, so that it is the best way for Li Li and for you," Eisen said softly as he held the video ball
