......
What the hell is this, is it really something that can be eaten?
After reading these three "new ingredients".
Jiang Yan couldn't help but reach out and cover his forehead, looking speechless.
Although he is the heir of the Five Elements Medicinal Diet, he also sees a lot of strange ingredients.
But three like the ones on this list are unheard of.
It's hard to imagine that this could be something that can be eaten.
Seeing Jiang Yan's speechless expression, Lannassel also smiled:
"What do those special investigators do, you should understand now?"
"Got it...... Arms dealers who go around looking for poison and murder weapons for their associations. ”
"Almost, just don't treat them as normal people anyway."
Lannathel tossed the leftover sweet potato skins into the trash can on the side.
Then he looked at the few roasted sweet potatoes left on the table, pursed his lips and said:
"Such a special investigator actually came to Neverwinter, and it seems that something strange has appeared nearby."
"Strange stuff? Exactly? ”
"Concrete? How do I know. ”
Lannassel glanced at Jiang Ember and showed that she was not an all-knowing and all-powerful god.
Although I know that the special investigators of the "Fog Capital Cooking Association" must have come here to have some intentions.
But what the hell was the man named Hannibal looking for?
It is impossible to deduce without any clues.
"If there are more clues, like what he's staying here for, there might be some way."
"More leads...... By the way, he said he was going to stay here for a week, is that a clue? ”
Suddenly, Ember remembered the last words Hannibal said yesterday.
The man was going to spend a week in the town of Neverwinter.
Is it because he really needs this week to prepare for the trip?
Or is it ...... What other purposes?
Lannasel also has a definite statement on this.
"Because the travel expenses are not enough, the act of selling vegetables here is fake in the first place, and the special investigators of the 'Fog Capital Cooking Association' will not be short of money to such a point."
"I think too, with so many people and such a large association, there must be sufficient funds for going out on business."
In fact, Jiang Yan thought about it carefully, and also felt that Hannibal was not short of money.
When he was selling vegetables yesterday, he even asked Catherine to make a random price herself.
They talk about lack of money, but in fact they don't care how much they can sell.
This is definitely not something that a man with a shortage of money for travel can do.
But when you say that, things are weird.
Since he wasn't really short of money, why did he sell vegetables here?
After thinking for a while, Lanather picked up another sweet sweet potato and looked at it.
Then he said thoughtfully:
"Maybe what he's going to do is not sell vegetables, but to give these things to others."
"Delivered to ...... In someone else's hands? ”
"Yes, if these vegetables are given away for no reason, the residents of Neverwinter Town should not accept them, it is too suspicious."
The town of Neverwinter is not large, and it is quite closed, with few foreign visitors.
This kind of foreign businessman who doesn't know the details is easy to say if he is doing business.
Giving something for nothing for no reason will definitely arouse the suspicion of many people immediately.
Perhaps it is because of this that Hannibal chose the tactic of selling at a low price.
At the same time, because he had blown himself up in the first place.
"There's a guy from the Fog Capital Cooking Association who is selling a lot of rare ingredients cheaply."
It should have spread quickly throughout the town and into everyone's ears in the next two days.
But again, what is Hannibal doing this for?
When things go wrong, there must be demons, and there may be some deeper meanings here.
Jiang Yan discussed this with Lannassel for a while, but he still had no clue.
After all, there are too few clues at hand, and random speculation is just adding to the trouble.
So, Lannasel made such an offer.
"Since we haven't been able to find an answer yet, why don't we go back and discuss it with the four of them."
"The four of them...... It's okay, there is strength in numbers, so let's do it. ”
As the saying goes, three stinkers are the top of Zhuge Liang.
What's more, Anjie is not a stinker yet.
Rather, they are geniuses from different countries who are extremely accomplished in their respective fields.
If two people can't do it, then six people will come.
In any case, Jiang Ember also has to figure out Hannibal's matter, otherwise he will always feel that there is no taste for anything to eat.
