Chapter 48 Change starts from this moment! (two-in-one chapter~)
Chapter 48 of the main volume of the Demon Hunting Cooking Manual Changes start from this moment! Emma takes Kratos and Logan to wash their hands.
Danvers and Patsy asked Esther about Edmond at the dinner table.
"Why isn't Edmund here?"
Danvers was an outspoken woman and asked directly, seeming a bit aggressive.
Patsy didn't speak, just caressed her swollen belly, and looked at Esther quietly, as if listening, but Esther would rather face ten Danforths than one Patsy.
Because he knows very well what kind of character Ms. Passi is.
Not only is he soft on the outside but strong on the inside, he also has extremely rigorous logic. It is really difficult to deceive the other party.
Therefore, after a little consideration, Esther lowered her voice and said:
"This is an opportunity!"
"Let us truly be free from hostage, and no longer have the chance of things like Warren, Quick, Clive, Edwin, Jones, and Rodney happening!"
Danvers' face darkened when he heard his boyfriend Clive's name.
She and Clive are getting married.
After a while, she will be Mrs. Clive, not Danvers.
And now?
She also thinks of herself as Mrs. Clive.
Otherwise, why would she join the 'Brotherhood'?
Just to become the superwoman that cute kid Emma calls her?
"Are you sure?"
"What do we need to do?"
Danforth also lowered her voice, she didn't want the children to hear this.
"Believe in Senior Edmond."
"He is more reliable and smarter than we thought."
"As for helping?"
"We eat here just to help."
Esther smiled.
Patsy's hand, which had been caressing his swollen belly, suddenly stopped.
She raised her head and looked at Esther, who was pretending to be relaxed.
"There is a secret agent of that big shot in the 'Asylum'. Edmon is not sure who it is for the time being, so we hope to use our ease to paralyze the opponent and reveal his lies?"
Patsy's question made Esther's face full of bitterness.
He knew that once he revealed the slightest bit of information, he would be unable to hide it from this woman.
"Senior Edmon has no intention of using us as bait..."
"I know! I also know Edmund, I know who he is!"
"I want to know right now is he in danger?"
Patsy interrupted Esther's explanation.
She has already understood what kind of person Edemon is. He is lazy, reclusive and dawdling. Such a person is really not dangerous at all. If this were not the case, she would not be here with her child.
.
But it was precisely because of this that she was worried.
I'm worried that Edemon won't be able to deal with that big shot.
Although she didn't know it in detail, the few words made her guess.
"Don't worry!"
"Senior Edmond has already prepared everything."
"and……"
"Patsy, didn't you notice that we are missing one person here?"
Esther pointed it out specifically.
Jason?
Percy and Danvers were stunned.
Only then did they realize that Jason was not here.
"So that's it!"
"I'm just going to tell you why Jason refused food."
Alas nodded suddenly.
"Not a bad guy."
Avant praised in a low voice.
Just now, the 'Sword Master' was already preparing to go to the 'shelter' to help Edemon, who was obviously regarded as a 'life mentor' by his son.
Although he was unhappy that his son did not regard him as a 'life mentor', Edmond's teachings to his son were genuine, and he would naturally not see the other person fall into danger.
That big shot and the opponent's secret agent?
Avant didn't think much about it.
Anzi can draw his sword and strike.
Naturally, big shots can do it too.
It's just a matter of one more sword and one less sword.
As for the so-called big shot at the ‘shelter’ headquarters?
Avant didn't care about this at all.
People can cut it.
Naturally, the headquarters of the ‘Shelter’ can also be cut down.
With some memories restored and bloodline continuing, Avant has unprecedented confidence. The sword in his heart has reappeared, sharper and tougher than before.
Looking at this sword, Avant already understood how far he could achieve
With my sword, everything will be cut down!
However, no aura was exposed on Avant's body.
Avant, who was wearing a cloak and had just taken off his mask, looked like an ordinary middle-aged and elderly man, watching his son and friends gather around the dinner table and talk about things with a smile on his face.
He enjoys the warmth of this 'home' very much.
It seems that this is what he is pursuing.
No!
Not as if.
But it is what I pursue.
Avant thought seriously.
Buzz!
The sword, which only Avant could see, immediately became sharper and tougher, with traces of brilliance shining from it.
‘Sword Master’ Avant’s strength has once again improved silently.
But Avant didn't care at all.
He just thinks now...when will his son get married?
He will more likely have grandchildren and granddaughters.
It's better to have more children.
Boys are so naughty, just three or five will be fine.
There must be eight or nine girls who are quiet and cute.
Then, there are two houses.
There is a big house in the city, which is noisy on weekdays. During holidays, he goes to the house outside the city for vacation. He can take his grandchildren to fly kites, do crafts, and teach them swordsmanship.
Thinking of this, Avant, who had not improved due to his strength, suddenly became excited.
He hopes to have a group of lovely grandchildren and granddaughters.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Esther keenly noticed Avant's strangeness, turned around and asked with a worried look on his face.
"fine."
"Avent, do you have a girlfriend?"
Avant waved his hand and asked seriously.
Esther was stunned.
He really didn't expect that his father would ask this.
Subconsciously, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I, I don't have a girlfriend yet."
Esther answered truthfully.
Avant immediately shook his head again.
"We must find one as soon as possible."
"You are now in your early twenties, and it takes at least two years to get to know a girlfriend and get to know each other. It takes one year after marriage to have the first child, and then the second child. If you have at least eleven children, it will take eleven years...
"
Avant said seriously.
Esther's face turned green when she heard this.
Why are you starting to rush for marriage before the Chinese New Year?
He is only in his early twenties and still wants to enjoy the single life.
"Dad, this, this, let's talk about it after we're done."
Esther wanted to change the subject.
Danvers on the side began to join in the fun.
"I have a friend who is a very good person. I can introduce you to her. Moreover, she also has the surname of 'Qiao'. If she marries you, Esther, your child will be 'Qiao Qiao', which sounds very nice."
Name."
Danvers said half-jokingly.
She didn't have any ill intentions, she was just teasing Esther.
After seeing Esther's expression of despair, Danvers smiled very happily.
However, Avant, as a father, is serious.
"What kind of girl is that 'Jo'?"
Avant walked to the dining table and asked in detail.
"She is a female criminal lawyer, her name is Jennifer."
Danvers faced Esther's father and immediately introduced him seriously.
Avant's eyes lit up when he heard this.
To be able to become a female lawyer, one must have good brains, good health, and good family conditions.
Very perfect!
"I think we can let Esther meet each other on the weekend."
Avant suggested.
"No problem, I'll contact Jennifer shortly."
Danvers promised readily.
Esther was sitting in a chair, covering her face and moaning in pain.
He is a single nobleman!
He doesn't want a girlfriend!
I don’t even want to get married!
Percy looked at all this with a smile.
She feels that the 'Brotherhood' at this moment is really like a big family.
The sadness in my heart dissipated a lot without realizing it.
Alas stared at the food on the table and swallowed unconsciously.
When will dinner be served?
Emma, haven't they washed their hands yet?
Alas thought.
And just at this time
"Emma, Emma, what's wrong with you?"
Logan's exclamation came.
Alas stood up and rushed to the bathroom, but Avant was faster.
In the eyes of Esther and others, Avant appeared at the bathroom door almost teleportingly, and then, as soon as the door opened, he walked out holding the unconscious Emma.
"She had a fever and fell into a coma."
"Ester call an ambulance."
Avant said directly.
"knew."
Esther nodded immediately and picked up the phone next to her.
Danvers got up and went to the kitchen to get ice cubes and towels to physically cool Emma down.
While Patsy motioned for Avant to put Emma down, she looked worriedly at the little girl whose face was flushed due to fever and whose body was still trembling slightly.
"You'll be fine."
"I promise you."
"You will recover soon."
Patsy, who was pregnant with the child, held Emma's hand and said softly.
Under the lights of the restaurant, a trace of brilliance appeared on Patsy's body.
At certain special moments, the elders will unconsciously love the younger ones.
Even if there is no blood relationship, this situation will occur.
People call it: maternal love.
But more people call it: the brilliance of motherhood.
It seemed that she felt Patsy's mother-like presence. Although Emma was still having a fever, her trembling body quickly stopped.
This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
"What just happened?"
Alas asked the anxious Logan and Kratos softly.
"I was telling her about the 'Brotherhood', 'Hydra', 'The Taotie Society' and the 'Night Owl Court'..."
Logan lowered his head in shame.
He seemed to think it was his own fault.
But he was so ashamed that he didn't notice that there was a little bit of "sharpness" on the back of his hand.
Similarly, Kratos didn't realize that his body seemed to be stronger.
The change began unconsciously.
Not just in this small apartment.
And the whole Angcheng.
In the Asylum in Angcheng, Edmond was wiping his weapons.
He is waiting.
He knew that after submitting his report, the big shot would definitely kill him with his character.
But he had no choice.
For everyone's safety.
He must do this!
Boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door.
Edmond's heart trembled.
Coming!
He placed one pistol on the table and held the other directly in his hand.
This is a simple trap.
Edmund hoped that people coming in would be attracted by the pistol on the table.
Because...if there was a head-to-head confrontation, he was not sure he could win against the opponent.
There are many people in Angcheng's "shelter", but there are not that many people who are really worth winning over.
Except for the original supervisor and three C-level personnel.
Only two people were left.
Clark and Litus!
The captain and deputy captain of the mobile team.
Apart from these two people, Edmon could not think of anyone else.
Edmon, who was born in the mobile team, knew the strength of these two people. Although they had no "abnormal items" or "abnormal abilities", their fighting skills and shooting skills were at a level unmatched by ordinary people.
Clark is good at unarmed combat and can easily bend steel bars as thick as his fingers.
Litus is good at shooting. Not only does he always hit the mark, but you never know where his bullets will come from and pierce your body.
Facing these two people, Edmond did not dare to be careless.
At the same time, he hopes that the secret agent of some big shot is Clark.
After all, in terms of shooting skills, it is really difficult for him to fight against Litus.
"Please come in."
Edmund relied on his breathing to adjust his mood, and then he spoke directly.
The door opened.
Two figures appeared outside the door at the same time.
Clark, Litus!
The one who is winning over is not alone!
But two!
Edemon's breath was stagnant when he reacted instantly. He subconsciously raised his gun to shoot, but Clark and Litus directly raised their hands at this time.
Edmond was stunned.
"We want to talk."
Clark said as a representative.
"good."
Edmund nodded and did not refuse.
At this moment, it was obvious that the other party had the absolute advantage.
Facing either Clark or Litus, Edmon thought he was 50% sure, but facing two at the same time?
Not even 10% sure.
If you are not confident in a head-on confrontation, then you have to start from other aspects.
Edmund knew this long before he came to Ang City in despair.
Clark closed the door, and then sat down with Litus in front of Edmon's desk. After the two sat down, they did not speak immediately. Instead, they were silent for about ten seconds before Clark spoke again.
.
"We want to join the Brotherhood."
Clark said.
"What?"
Edmon was stunned for a moment, unable to react.
"We want to join the Brotherhood."
Clark reiterated, and then, without waiting for Edmon to speak, he continued: "I know it is difficult for you to accept it now. In fact, I was also surprised when I made this decision because, after I found the strength,
He had the same idea when he was playing with Tes."
"We don't want to endure the pain inside anymore."
"Valen, Quick, Clive, Edwin, Jones, and Rodney are technically our people, but we have not been able to avenge them. Instead, we need you, Edmund, to do it.
"
"When we tried to make some applications to that big shot, it was just perfunctory!"
"What did he do?"
"He sent that bastard Sean."
"We know exactly what he wants to do. He took the opportunity to get rid of us and then cultivate two more obedient people."
"So, we quit and join the 'Brotherhood'."
Clark, who had always been silent, spoke as if he was confiding.
Litus on the side also spoke at this time.
"It was clearly agreed upon for three years, but three years later, another three years, and three years later, another three years!"
"Ten years!"
"I'm suffering!"
"I just can't bear it anymore."
"I can no longer watch my subordinates, friends, and partners die like this, inexplicably!"
The vice-captain of the mobile team said as if venting his anger.
Edmond sat there and looked at the two of them.
There was an inexplicable reversal of humor and joy in his heart.
But then a hint of sadness arose.
He could truly see the suffering of the two of them.
because……
He was like this too.
With a serious face, Edmond stood up, and he solemnly said to Clark Litus: "Welcome to the 'Brotherhood'!"
Snap!
Clark and Litus saluted directly to Edemon.
Like a knight's allegiance.
It's like saying goodbye to the past.
They finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I let go of the speculative and uneasy feeling I had just now.
They did not delve into the reasons for their sudden suspicion and uneasiness.
They just regarded it as an explosion that accumulated over time.
But no matter what.
They felt at ease.
Next…
Naturally, we have to face that big shot.
Clark, Litus looked at Edmond.
"Don't be so nervous."
"If my report goes well...that big shot will definitely be in big trouble."
"However, he will also guess your actions."
"So, he will definitely activate other secrets in Ang City."
"His influence is not limited to the 'shelter'."
Edmon said in a relaxed tone.
What he was most worried about was the person inside the asylum who belonged to that person.
As for the outside?
He is not worried.
He has too many ways to deal with those people.
Whether it was civilized or nasty, he had a plan.
Of course, necessary caution is indispensable.
"Clark, Litus, I'll leave it to you two for the next 48 hours."
"Please ask the two of you to rearrange the security guards of the 'shelter', and at the same time, have the mobile team on standby at any time."
Edmond said.
"Yes, sir!"
Clark and Litus saluted again and turned around and walked out.
The door is closed.
Edmund sat back in his chair.
He raised his head, looked at the light tubes on the ceiling, and spoke in a vague voice.
"I have already left, and you are still forcing me."
"Then I will fight you to the death!"
"I don't want to prove how great I am, I just want to tell everyone... don't mess with me!"
After saying that, Edmon sat up straight and picked up the phone.
And just when Edmon made this call, many big figures in the city and many industry elites were having dinner with their families at their homes, or drinking and mingling in high-end restaurants. At the same time, they also
Their respective channels learned about what happened in Ang City, which made some of them frown and some of them angry.
But it was more of a panic.
However, these expressions only existed in the last moment.
The next moment!
One by one, they suddenly showed proud and proud smiles.
