Chapter 20: Buying Lunch
After leaving the Altaro Demon, Naimo found a bench in the street, and Syk sat down, bending down with his upper body resting on his thighs and his head down to his knees.
"Do you have any haode anemia medicine?" Nemonacic wrapped the herb and rummaged through it, and soon found a bottle of medicine with "blood tonic medicine" on it. The habit of tidying up the bag came in handy. Naimo handed the blood tonic to Xi Ke, then took out the scald medicine, and said as he wiped it, "Borrow a little bit of the scald medicine." When he was done, Nemo asked Rick, "Are you going to buy 'lunch' in this way?" or should I find a place for you to lie down. γ
"Yes. Rick covered his mouth and made a suppressed sound. The blood tonic tastes terrible, and it will come up from the throat after the stomach: "There are still problems that have not been solved. Ikama Weishenme didn't come out to save Norpige?Is he really Norpig's demon?Where did Nopig run away when he fought?Even if Norpig died and didn't solve Ikama, I still can't feel at ease. γ
"Again, I don't want to see Elaine Tsui running around. Namo scratched his head. He didn't feel comfortable without a hat.
Nemo picked up Syk and went to find a place to change out of his blood-stained uniform and buy a new hat.
On the way, they passed through an intersection, the green light was on, but there was an ambulance horn to pass, and all the vehicles stopped in place and waited for the ambulance to pass.
"That's what love of life is. Rick thought to himself.
Later, Nick put on his new gray basic mage robes, and Nemo wore a coffee-colored beret with four cockades on it, and he also changed his ugly uniform for a pale yellow shirt, suit pants, and a woolen long coat. I didn't buy it at the same store as Xi Ke's clothes. When they went to the mage shop to buy mage robes, Xi Ke looked like he should call the police immediately, which scared the clerks so much that it took him a long time to calm down and introduce the goods.
After the change, they went to the residential area. If you look up in this area, you can also see the department store complex, which is a cluster of apartments in the shadow of the building. Most of the first floors of apartments have been converted into storefronts to form their own small market. Mostly those who sell food.
Naimo led the way to a teahouse called "Apple's Dream". Rick noticed that pedestrians looking for something to eat were jumping directly from the previous store to its next as they walked down the street. No one wants to walk into the store, and no one stops to look for the menu or something, as if they can't see the store.
Nemo looked at Cy Ke standing in the doorway and looked at the passerby suspiciously, and said, "This type of magic is not easy for you to use. He exhaled and said, "Go in, you're hungry." Naimo pushed the door in, and the wind chimes clanged against the door.
It was lunchtime, but there were no customers in the store. It's a small shop, with a bar and two double seats, so there's not much room left. The tables and chairs are made of stainless steel and plastic, and there are no windows. The dΓ©cor is designed to look like a hole in the floor, with water flowing down the dark black uneven walls all the time, into the ditch in the corner, and then into the drainage hole in the depths. Although the place should be above the ground from the outside, Rick suspects that it may not be decoration, but rather that they have actually entered a hole in the ground. There are a total of five magic lamps in the shape of oil lamps on the two tables and the bar, which are the only light sources in the store. Sick saw the flame in the lamp with eyes and mouth, and smiled at him.
"How's it going?" Namo waved over to the bar. There is a row of glasses on the bar, and a leprechaun stands behind it. The three of them sat down at the bar.
Fairy Monmer is about one hundred and forty centimeters tall and looks like a human boy. In keeping with his height, the bar is not heightened, just about the same as a regular table. Monmer is a little thinner than the average human child, but a little fatter than Rick. A silvery-blue shoulder-length hair with a neat cut side, covering the right eye and both ears, and a pronounced pointed chin. He wears a turtleneck shirt and denim shorts, a small apron over it, and short leather boots on his feet. His complexion was light, lacking in blood, his lips were purple, and his olive-shaped sockets had no pupils for silver-white eyes. He wears a metal ring around his neck with a string of numbers engraved on it: one, one, seven, two, six.
"We congratulate you. Monmer spoke. His voice was like that of a parrot scholar, and the emotion revealed in his tone did not fluctuate with the content.
"Sure enough, you already know. Norpige is dead. Namo leaned on the bar, his chin resting on the table, "I'll get my friend something to eat first." He's just bled a lot, make up for it. γ
Monmer asked, "What race is he?"
"Humans. γ
"One serving of Chinese food for human beings, especially with ingredients to replenish blood. We've got you covered. Meng Mo opened the refrigerator behind him, took the ingredients, and put them in the oven.
"Lisna, too. I'm a charmer. Lisna said. She rested her elbows on the table and her palms rested on her cheeks.
"Are you still human?" Monmer asked Namo.
"Well, there's no plan to change anytime soon. γ
"Two humans, one demon, one human, and one of them adds fuel to replenish blood. Monmer went to work.
When he put everything in the oven and returned to the bar to stand, Namo asked, "We want to know about the demon Ikama, do you have any news about it?"
"What do you want to know? Let's think about it. As he spoke, he pulled out a notebook from a drawer that had become very thin from torn off many pages. He took out a ballpoint pen and leaned against his notebook. Monmer's fingers have one more joint than humans, each one is much longer than a human, and each hand has one more finger than a human. The nails are cleanly cut. Although the anatomy of his hands is different, it does not prevent him from holding a pen in the same way as a human.
Lisina grabbed a glass, jumped out of her chair and ran under the stalactites deep inside the store. Colorful water flowed down from there, and Lisna took it from a cup.
"Who is Ikama's owner, can you tell?" asked Naimor.
Monmer replied as he wrote it down on paper: "We can't say. γ
Vic sat next to him and thought that it might not be too long since the demon Ikama arrived in Ataro. There is no word "I" in the Demon Language. Therefore, the demon who first comes into contact with the other world does not use the word "I", but uses his own name instead. When we first met, Ikama spoke the devil's language like this.
"Do you know Elaine Emerald, is she still alive?" asked Namo.
"We remember she's dead. There is no information that she is not dead. γ
"Ikama knows something that only Elaine Tsui knows. γ
"We know something that explains this. Butβ" Monmer put down his pen.
Naimo said, "I bought a bottle of blood food wine with rat scones. γ
Munmer picked up the pen again and wrote, "We know there is an informal school of magic. They specialize in strange demonology. They have a very important hypothesis, which is that every time a human being is born, a demon will be born in the demon world. These two beings will echo each other, but they will not affect each other, they are the corresponding existence of each other. γ
"Ikama is the demonic version of Eliane?"
"We think it's possible. This hypothesis has not been tested in Ethero, but there are many people in the demon world who regard it as common sense. We give you the name of the school, you can look it up yourself. γ
"I don't dare trust the common sense of demons, they don't think the same way as humans. Naimo raised an eyebrow and glanced at Lisna. The latter also stared at the cup and stalactites, expecting the cup to be full.
The oven made a "ding" sound when the time was up, and Meng Mo turned to take out the food. Wrap a layer of greaseproof paper first, then tear off the notes you just wrote and wrap them outside, and Zuihou hand them to Naimo.
Naimo paid. Rick took his share. Open it and read that note while eating. The food is normal and delicious, it is a sauce made of beef rolls and liver, and it comes with a cup of milk tea.
Lisna came back to eat her share. When he opened the package, the contents seemed to move, and Xi Ke instinctively looked away.
Naimo chewed on his meatloaf, and Monmer wrapped him in a bottle of chocolate-colored wine and mouse scones. At this time, an elf with a red glow and a tongue of fire on his head from time to time walked into the store, and they let the bar out and went to sit at the table. Lisna also dragged a chair over, and the three of them squeezed into a table.
"I didn't think it was really a restaurant that sells food. Rick said. He shoved a zuihou burrito into his mouth. He had always thought that the place where Naimo bought his "lunch" was an intelligence store.
"It sells food from all walks of life, with gossip. Monmer's approach to business has been very successful. Everyone in the black market has come to Mengmo's shop, and it is delicious and rewarding. Naimo said. He brought the blood food wine to Lisna, who happily hugged it and rubbed the bottle with her cheek. Namo looked at Lisina and turned back and said, "One more bonus, this is a chain store, and the price is the same across the country!"
Considering the size of the country, which is cumbersome to govern, this is not an easy task.
Xi Ke thought while drinking milk tea. No wonder it took Naimo two meals to gather information on Zinopige, he couldn't eat that much, and of course there were few giveaways.
"You hungry man, you can eat some rat scones, too." Naimo pulled the note paper out of the rat scones.
"I don't want to eat that creature anymore. The corners of Rick's mouth were pressed down.
"Where did I think of you? This is red bean and cream filling. The rat is just a model. The scones that Nemo took out were baked in a mouse-shaped mold. As with taiyaki, the name has nothing to do with the contents.
At the very end of the bar is a 10-inch TV. Monmer turned on the large magic lamp from the ceiling to illuminate the room, then turned on the TV and winked at their table.
The TV broadcasts the midday news. According to the emergency announcement, Nopige Shisang, a first-class wanted criminal who had caused panic among the public for two years, had been shot dead by security personnel of the Altaro Magic Faith earlier.
Syk reads novels with his eyes and listens to the news with his ears.
Kuo was on TV and was busy crying, saying that he definitely didn't ask the staff to shoot Norpig. He said that the abolition of the death penalty was a universal value and that the security services had not done a good job of communicating with Norpig. It is because this society has deprived Norpig of all opportunities for good, which has led to this result......
There was also a guy who didn't know whether he was a councillor or a famous person, who had the title of professor anyway and was very accustomed to being on television, and said that if his child was killed, he would forgive that person, saying that his child could not want the prisoner to die. His sincerity, joy, and the appearance of welcoming the moment of imagination realization without fear in his mind, as well as his tone with a little expectation, actually reminded him of a situation that cannot be compared at all: it is very similar to when others go to buy lottery tickets, saying that if he wins the jackpot, he will definitely donate money for public welfare.
Xi Ke didn't want to understand Weishenme In that person's heart, how could the killing of a child be the same feeling as winning the lottery in a color roll.
A spokesman for the Demon Court said that a medal would be given to each of the security personnel who had done their duty, and that the bounty would be distributed as soon as possible.
After eating, the three of them returned to the Ataro Demon Letter Building together. As he walked, Naimo considered how to write his resignation letter.
