"This..." Linton closed his eyes, "Unexpectedly... very delicious!"
At this time, what Linton had in front of him was something that looked like a hot pot. It was naturally the dinner prepared by Fubuki for him. Speaking of hot pot, Linton must have eaten Sichuan hot pot before, and the pot in front of him was a little red.
None. It looked like a clear soup with little water. Linton thought it was not delicious at first sight. However, after giving it a try, it turned out to be... very delicious.
Generally speaking, this thing is just a beef hot pot. According to people here, it is probably called Sukiyaki. It was Linton's first time eating it, and it was inexplicably delicious, far exceeding his expectations.
"Okay, you really know how to cook." Linton looked at Fubuki in surprise and said.
"Of course..." Fubuki said.
"Then hurry up and sit down to eat together." Linton said.
"Uh... together?" Fubuki was stunned for a moment.
"What's wrong? Is your pot poisoned?" Linton asked.
"Of course not!" Fubuki said quickly, of course what he was thinking was, yes, why don't I poison him.
"It's okay, it's okay. If you can poison me to death now, you are considered powerful. If you want to add more poison in the future, you can add more poison as long as it doesn't affect the taste." Linton said.
"..." Linton's words left Chui Xue speechless. He thought for a moment and said, "This doesn't seem to be a question of adding poison or not... and what you mean in the future is..."
"Your cooking skills are so good, it would be a pity not to be a chef." Linton said, "Anyway, I will leave my food to you these days."
"Huh?" Fubuki was stunned for a moment.
"If you don't agree, I'll go twist your sister right now." Linton said directly.
Fubuki has been out and about for a long time and has seen a lot of people of all kinds. Of course she has been threatened by others, but this was the first time she encountered such a threat and she made no secret of it.
"Don't look like that, I won't let you work in vain." Linton said, "Didn't the two monsters I defeated earlier get bonuses? Even if it's your salary, it's not a loss."
To be honest, Fubuki was quite nervous at first, but given the current situation, she was a little scared: "With that little bonus, you really can't afford to hire me."
"Uh...really?" Linton touched his chin, "Is the Hero Association so stingy? It's okay. Anyway, I will continue to fight a few monsters in the future, and the bonus should be quite large."
After all, monsters are just points. Linton will definitely continue to fight monsters and earn some bonuses on the way. Linton has no use for this money at all, and he doesn't know how to exchange it, so he just leaves it to Fubuki to deal with it.
"So... is your purpose in coming to Z City to deal with the recent increase in the number of weirdos here?" Fubuki asked.
Fubuki also tried to test Linton's purpose. From Linton's words before, it can be judged that he must have just arrived in Z city, and he is still looking for a place to live. And she asked this, on the one hand, for revenge.
, Know yourself and know your enemy. The purpose of her coming here is also to explore Linton's intelligence. On the other hand, this is also the explanation given by the investigators of the association just now.
Linton's side is really too strong. The only one Fubuki can rely on now is the association. But when the previous investigator left, he said that he would first investigate Linton's situation before making any decision. Fubuki thought it was reasonable.
.If you can investigate Linton's information on your own, and leave it to the association, they will naturally be able to make a judgment faster.
"Oh, no, it's just a side trip to fight monsters. I mainly came to see my nephew." Linton said.
"Nephew?" Fubuki was stunned for a moment, "Then what is your nephew's name? I might be able to help you find it."
Of course, after saying that, Fubuki's first thought was to use Linton's nephew to threaten him. Didn't the other party also use this trick? I can do it too.
"The name... I don't know." Linton spread his hands and said.
"Don't know the name?" Fubuki was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, she figured it out on her own. She thought about the possibility that Linton's nephew lost his name when he was a child, and then changed his name. The previous name was Lin.
Linton must have checked it, and there was no such person. Linton probably meant that he didn't know the other person's current name.
"Then...what are the characteristics? What does he look like? How old is he?" Fubuki asked.
"I don't know..." Linton said.
"Are you kidding me? You don't even know this?" Fubuki said.
"I just found out about my brother a few days ago. After asking about it, he seems to have a certain kind. However, my brother is dead and he can't tell me other information. To be honest, I don't know whether my nephew is a boy or a girl.
I know." Linton said.
"Then how did you know he was here?" Fubuki asked.
"It was calculated by fortune telling," Linton said casually.
"Fortune telling? Then why don't you guess what his name is and what he looks like?" Chui Xue naturally didn't believe in things like fortune telling.
"I thought so too, but I don't have the ability." Linton said.
"Then how do you find it? You don't know anything. Even if your nephew appears in front of you, you don't know he is your nephew." Fubuki said.
"It's okay. Relying on the bond of blood, I can recognize my nephew... or niece at a glance." Linton said.
"Are you...sure you're not talking nonsense?" Fubuki couldn't help but say.
"Hey, hey, what's so ridiculous about this," Linton said.
"Then why didn't you say that I am your niece?" Fubuki said smoothly.
"Huh?" Fubuki's words made Linton stunned for a moment. Yes, the tool man delivered to his door cooked delicious food. It seems... he is indeed a good candidate. Although Fubuki's words were obviously ironic,
But Linton suddenly became interested.
"Why...are you looking at me like that?" Chuixue looked a little nervous when she saw Linton suddenly stopped and started to look her up and down. Yes, she was quite afraid of Linton at first, but as she was talking, she suddenly forgot about it.
The guy was so scary before, but now it seems that Linton's eyes are a little serious, and suddenly he is a little panicked. Is his nephew's matter a taboo issue for Linton? Did he accidentally step into a trap?
"That...I didn't mean that..." Fubuki wanted to explain, but halfway through her words, she was suddenly interrupted by Linton.
"Your name is Fubuki, right? Who are your parents? Where are they now?" Linton asked directly.
"Huh?" Fubuki was stunned for a moment and suddenly asked what the situation was. However, Linton seemed to be quite serious and replied, "My parents are long gone."
"Oh...then do you have an uncle?" Linton asked.
"Huh? That...I'm not sure," Fubuki said.
"Niece, I am your long-lost uncle." Linton suddenly said while holding Fuxue's shoulders.
"Huh?" Fubuki was confused by the sudden outburst. He really couldn't keep up with Linton's thinking. "What did you say? I'm your niece?"
"Yes, I have suffered a lot for you these years. Let me take care of you from now on, uncle." Linton said.
"Wait a minute! No matter how you look at it, I can't be your niece," Fubuki said.
"Why?" Linton asked.
"First of all, your age is wrong. You're not older than me." Fubuki said.
"This seniority has nothing to do with age," Linton said.
"That... is impossible anyway. Although I have no memory of my parents, I have never heard of any other uncles. Anyway, you have mistaken the person." Fubuki said.
"It's impossible. At that moment, I already felt the call of blood between us." Linton said, "Don't you feel it?"
"It's not okay at all?" Fubuki said immediately, "Wait, bloodline? I have an idea, just go and test the DNA and find out."
"This may not work. This body of mine is not my original body. I have been reincarnated several times using the technique of immortal reincarnation, so the DNA test method will not work." Linton said.
"What is the art of reincarnation without corpse? And what about the call of the bloodline that you just mentioned yourself? You also said that this is not your body, but you can feel it?" Fubuki couldn't help but say.
"That's necessary. This kind of bond has power beyond all else." Linton said.
"There has to be a limit to your nonsense, you bastard!" Fubuki yelled.
"I was just wondering why I suddenly let you go on a whim. Now that I think about it, it was because of the call of blood." Linton said, "I'm sure, you must be my niece."
"No..." Chuixue was about to deny it, but was suddenly stunned. Yes, Linton said that he let her go because of the call of her blood, which meant that he let her go because he thought she was her niece. If...
No? Should he be killed directly? Thinking of this, Fubuki couldn't help but hesitate.
Naturally, Chui Xue no longer thinks that she is Linton's niece. She is not even sure whether Linton's statement about finding his niece is true or false. But judging from his current situation, he mistakenly regards herself as his niece? Do you accept this?
Is it any benefit to you?
If the other party really trusts me and thinks of herself as her niece, it might be helpful for her to get revenge. Fubuki doesn't care about any means. If she really accepts her, and gains Linton's trust, then it won't be possible.
Lots of room for maneuver.
While he was hesitating, Linton suddenly said: "Speaking of it, niece, you are a little too weak. At your level, it is difficult to protect yourself. Let me teach you the qigong passed down by our family starting tomorrow."
"Qigong?" Fubuki was stunned for a moment, "If you learn it, you can become as strong as you."
"I don't know. Everyone's talent is different. It's all passed down from family anyway. You should learn from it and see if you have any talent in this area." Linton said.
"Uh...that...I know." Yes, under the coercion and inducement, Fubuki here directly acquiesced.
"Oh, don't forget tomorrow's breakfast, uncle, I'm looking forward to it." Linton said with a smile.
