"I'm home?"
Zhou Li and the others had just walked through an alley when a slim girl waved to them excitedly and shouted happily: "This way, this way~"
"Well, I'm back."
Zhou Li stepped forward and touched Eluma's hair, and then asked her: "Did these three corpses have any signs of fraud while I was away?"
"Um…"
Eluma tapped her red lips with her slender fingers. After thinking for a moment, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and cute dimples appeared on her cheeks. "Little Taoist, I am still capable of fighting, no matter how small it is~"
"彳亍, consider yourself awesome."
Although his tone was perfunctory, it was visible to the naked eye that Zhou Li still had a smile on his face that only appeared when facing Eluma. He stretched out his hand, and the purple light violently lifted the three of them and threw them to the black mist watching the show.
?
Hei Wu looked at the three corpses hanging on his body and was speechless.
"Let's go, it's done."
Zhou Li glanced at the time and sighed: "It's almost seven o'clock, it's time to have dinner."
"What to eat?"
Eluma clasped her hands behind her back, raised her eyes slightly, and said to Zhou Li with a little pride: "Whatever you say, I will do it for you when you get back."
"I want honey lamb chops."
Lin Zi on the side stretched out her hand and said happily: "When it's charred, brush it with a layer of honey and a layer of ingredients, and choose the tenderest part!"
"You're almost a hundred pounds already."
Lin Ling on the side took out a piece of paper and wiped the corner of Lin Zi's mouth, and said angrily: "You have eaten too much recently. Ms. Don Quixote is a professional and needs to eat to replenish her strength. You are 1.6 meters tall." In less than two bowls of rice, haven’t you noticed that you are starting to feel tired after walking one kilometer?”
"Wow, sister, where did you appear from?"
Lin Zi was startled by the sudden appearance of Lin Ling. She first obediently asked Lin Ling to wipe away the food traces from the corner of her mouth, and then asked in surprise: "Where were you just now?"
"Guess if I hadn't gone to find Mr. Zhou Li, would you have been rescued so quickly?"
Lin Ling stretched out her finger and poked Lin Zi's cheek, and said angrily: "Don't do such dangerous things next time. You still don't like to wear those talismans. Do you know how worried I am?"
"Ms. Lin Ling, I caused the trouble this time. Please don't blame Lin Zi. She was just involved by me."
Torea on the side quickly stepped forward to explain. Looking at Torea, who was trying hard to show a ashamed expression on Bingcube's face, Lin Ling sighed, shook her head, and said helplessly: "I know how all this happened, and I have no intention of blaming you. . I just want her to wear those amulets well so that she can have some leeway in this situation."
"It's so uncomfortable to wear those amulets."
Lin Zi also followed Lin Ling's example and sighed, and said distressedly: "I don't know why. Wearing those amulets in Tariq makes me feel a little sleepy and have a headache. It's so strange."
"Is it?"
Zhou Li on the side frowned when he heard this. He seemed to have thought of something and asked Lin Zi, "Will you feel uncomfortable wearing those amulets?"
"that's it."
Lin Ling on the side took out a bunch of runes of various colors. In addition to some obviously twelve-quarter runes, there were also amulets engraved by various professional unions and individuals. These talismans were specially purchased by Lin Ling, who was worried about Lin Zi. Most of them were gold and platinum. These talismans were expensive to make, and there was even a bright talisman worth 10,000 gold coins.
"Are these..."
Looking at these different types of talisman strings, but with Lin Ling's careful matching, they complemented each other without any conflict, Zhou Li began to think. After a moment, he took out the Brave Book and tore off a page, engraved a simple rune on it and handed it to Lin Zi to hold in her hand.
"How about it?"
Lin Zi looked at the runes in her hands, looked at Zhou Li with some confusion, and shook her head, "I don't feel anything."
After getting Lin Zi's answer, Zhou Li seemed to understand something. He looked at the string of talismans and nodded thoughtfully. But he didn't dwell too much on it. He looked at Don Quixote aside and asked her, "Where is your Guardian Shield Rune?"
The so-called Guardian's Shield rune is actually Don Quixote's family medal. It is just an ordinary silver-level rune, and its symbolic meaning is greater than its actual significance.
"It doesn't feel like what Azi said."
Don Quixote shook his head, but said with some uncertainty: "However, it may be that my physique is better and I will not be affected by that."
"Maybe."
Zhou Li nodded, without saying much, and led everyone back to the pharmacy.
"you are back?"
Looking at the fawning old man in front of him who had no bottom line, Zhou Li clicked his tongue and said a little unnaturally: "I still prefer your unruly look just now. Please recover a little."
"You are a brave man, and I should be the same. I can't break the rules."
Looking at the amiable Zhou Li in front of him, the old man who knew what kind of person this was was didn't believe his lies at all. Instead, his attitude became even lower, "Your friend is still in the car, he should be asleep."
"You are still thoughtful and contact me more in the future. I like friends like you who are craftsmen."
Zhou Li smiled and patted the old man's shoulder. Without looking at his stiff face, he opened the car door and returned to the car while humming.
"Are you done?"
Ivey sat up unsteadily in the car. He had done nothing today, but he was inexplicably tired. He didn't know why, but seeing that Zhou Li and the others didn't have any unusual reaction, he didn't bother to ask.
"Well, something happened."
Zhou Li also didn’t want Ivy to recall the horrific memory of being tied to a pillar by Frankenstein and injected with an unknown liquid. He didn’t mention it either. Anyway, he had checked that Ivey was not hurt, so there was no need to react too much. .
"Something happened? Are you okay?"
Ivey was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously asked with concern: "Who else have you tricked into ruining everything and being unable to recover again?"
"Can you find some nice words?"
Zhou Li complained expressionlessly. At this time, Hei Wu, who was carrying three corpses, threw the corpses into the trunk, closed the door and returned to Eluma's body. Ivey looked at the three dead corpses in shock, looked at Zhou Li blankly, and then looked at the corpses, as if waiting for a response.
"Suicide, I'll take it back and study it."
Facing the calm and composed Zhou Li, Ivey wanted to say something, but thinking that these people might be better off dead than alive, he agreed and said, "It's a good thing they're dead, otherwise it would be better to die and be studied by you alive." It’s real.”
"Who do you think I am?"
Seeing everyone get in the car, Zhou Li lowered the speed gear a little, and then asked angrily: "I'm not a Frankenstein, what do you think I am?"
"Smelly chess basket."
Without any hesitation or thinking, this sentence just came out. At this moment, including Don Quixote, even Torea cast admiring glances at him. However, with the blessing of Veritaserum, Ivey did not realize how lethal his words were. He just looked at the silent Zhou Li in front of him in confusion, and his hand on the speed gear.
Laman.
With Ivey's horrified expression, the speed gear was directly raised to the top. Before he could cry out, Zhou Li's eyes glowed purple, and a strange look suddenly appeared on the wheel. With a step on the accelerator that almost hit the engine, this civilian luxury magic car sped away like a mad dog that had let loose, leaving behind Ivey's suffering and sorrow.
By the time they got to the hotel, Ivy had lost his mind. He slumped on the seat and stared blankly at the roof of the car. After a while, he sadly swore to the car lights that if he got in Zhou Li's car again, he would hang himself from the street lights.
After returning to the luxurious hotel with a kitchen, Zhou Li and his group packed up the magic energy shuttle and returned to the floor they booked. After Eluma put on her apron, she went to the kitchen to cook with Lin Ling, while Lin Zi, Torreya and Don Quixote went to the room to start their private wine business. As for Zhou Li, he drove to the western smuggling location mentioned by the old man at the pharmacy and threw the three people in.
Of course, he placed an evil Scourge purple light in Arthur and Dutch's bodies to track them. As for John…
It's too weak, there's no need to release it.
After throwing the three unconscious people into the wilderness to fend for themselves, Zhou Li drove a fast car humming a tune and returned to the hotel with the ticket signed as Magnum III. When he returned to the hotel, a table of meals was ready. He was not polite, sat next to Eluma and started eating.
He ate happily, and Eluma had already figured out Zhou Li's taste. In this life, Eluma didn't have to worry about all kinds of things like in her previous life, so she focused her time on her daily routine and hobbies. Of course, her interest is Zhou Li.
"Avi, why are you acting weird?"
At the dinner table, after Ain put a chopstick of vegetables into Kaya's bowl, he looked up at Aiwei and asked with some confusion: "Do you have a fever?"
"No."
Ivey shook his head and said calmly: "I just feel a little strange, as if some boundary has been breached. I feel a little flustered, but I feel a little relieved."
well? ?
Ain on the side was stunned. This concise and no-nonsense speaking style did not match Ain at all. She put her soft palms on Ivy's forehead and said worriedly: "This can't be encephalitis, it's a bit serious."
"That's it when he comes back."
Looking at the vegetables Lin Ling put in her bowl with a sad face, Ah Zi raised her head and indicated that she didn't know what was going on.
At this time, Zhou Li and Eluma, who knew what happened in the pharmacy, were not at the table. They were studying how to deal with one of Tariq's seafood products. Ain picked up the piece of meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice and said to Ain:
"Xiao Yin, I definitely don't have a fever or disease. My sense of taste is very normal and my mind is extremely clear. Although this state is very strange, it shouldn't be an illness."
"well???"
After hearing this, Ayin was so surprised that she almost stood up. She looked at Aiwei with a strange voice, "What did you call me just now?"
"Xiao Yin, your nickname, your sister and I both like to call you that. But five years ago, after I called you that when I picked you up from school and you scolded me, I felt that you shouldn't call you that when you grow up. I call you by your nickname, so I won’t call you that.”
Ivey's state at this time is that if you ask him to play the drum, he will run to catch the tiger; if you ask him to walk west, he will go eastward to seek scriptures. Before Ain could say anything, Aiwei said a long list of words like popping beans.
"You, you, you, what are you talking about!"
Ai Yin's face was suddenly stained with a beautiful blush. She looked at Ai Wei and said in panic: "I didn't scold you for calling me Xiao Yin. You were waving a banner and jumping up and down in front of thousands of people with a magic circle. The music picked me up. I’m only a teenager, so it’s normal that I can’t bear it! But I definitely didn’t scold you because you called me Xiaoyin!”
After realizing that things were beginning to develop in an interesting direction, everyone who originally wanted to say something fell silent. They pricked up their ears, listened to the gossip in the open and secretly, and began to listen to the past stories of these two enemy brothers and sisters.
"Didn't you say that they are jealous of you because you are good-looking and extremely talented, and talk about you behind your back? I did this to get rid of you once and for all."
Faced with Aiwei, who rarely showed a look of grievance, Ayin, who was originally very good at venomous tongues, was suddenly thrown into disarray. She blushed and whispered: "It's really settled once and for all. They will stop talking about me from then on. You laughed at me instead.”
"etc!"
Ain suddenly remembered something. She raised her head and asked warily: "Then they suddenly started avoiding me. Wasn't it also your fault?"
"No."
Ivey shook his head and said very sincerely: "That's what your sister did. She invited those students out and left them with a psychological shadow. Apart from making an appointment and contacting the court and police station, I Nothing else."
Suddenly realizing something was wrong, Ain stared at Aiwei and quickly continued to ask: "I won 250,000 in the lottery when I was in college?!"
"Our family is so rich and you are always thinking about working and studying, wasting your energy on studying and always having to deal with people you don't like. I know you are worried about being adopted, but your sister, your parents, and I have always treated you as a family. People. So I discussed it with your sister and set up a lottery station to hold an event where you could buy one paper towel, get one free, and give away lottery tickets. Sure enough, you took the bait."
"The swordsman back then?"
"Didn't you always want to practice swordsmanship? Your sister used her connections and I used my money to invite him here. If I didn't ask him to make up an excuse to travel around in search of a suitable person, you would definitely not accept it."
"On my eighteenth birthday, someone anonymously gave me a mithril sword?"
"My father and I bought it together. Although he said he doesn't like you practicing swordsmanship, he has always asked me to pay attention to your health and has always acquiesced in my family buying supplements and armor for you."
Ivey looked at Ain and said unconsciously: "Actually, many of the swords and armors you bought privately were sent by me to sell them to you, and some of them were rewards chosen by your sister when doing tasks."
"Why don't you tell me?"
There was a mist in Ain's eyes. She looked at Aiwei in front of her, and the grievances she felt at that time turned into gentle drizzle and fell in her heart. She didn't know what to say. She had always thought that she was a neglected child, but today she discovered that she was the one who had always been loved.
"Your sister and your parents are hereditary arrogants. They always say one thing and mean the other. Whatever they do, they have to act like it's not for you, it's just convenient."
"how about you?"
Ain looked at Aiwei, pursed his lower lip, and said softly, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Silence, a long silence.
"Of course I want to see how my sister, who has always been sharp-tongued and arrogant, will be so moved when she is told these things one day and cry bitterly!!!"
