Hui Lijing was in a good mood and hung up the phone with the old monk from Tongshou Temple.
Someone invites you to dinner!
For a female detective, is there anything more joyful than being invited to dinner?
Naturally, the meal invited was a big meal.
The previous feast at the ‘Glowing Cooking Pavilion’ had already made her happy for a long time.
Where will it be today?
The female detective guessed and couldn't help humming a cheerful tune.
As a female detective who has dreamed of being a barista since she was a child, she does not hate eating. It can even be said that in some aspects, she loves eating very much.
A person who doesn't like to eat cannot make delicious food.
"Cherry, your original pudding!"
“This is the free caramel pudding!”
The female detective smiled and handed the two puddings in the bag to Cherry.
"Thank you, Sister Hui Lijing."
Cherry cheered happily.
Children, isn't that what they are?
You can cheer for a delicious meal.
You can also get frustrated over a toy.
Everything is so simple.
Especially with Cherry's smile, there is even more sincere cuteness in such simplicity.
Seeing such a smile, Hui Lijing felt that the caramel pudding given out was really worth it.
She wished she could have more smiles like this.
After all, the happy time in childhood is what supports people to survive and struggle in the cold and cruel real world when they grow up.
Hui Lijing, who was standing at the bar, bowed slightly to express her gratitude.
Although deep down in her heart, the female detective didn't feel that the old man in front of her could do anything to help her.
However, the other party has good intentions.
Even if it's just bragging.
Hui Lijing also believes that it should not be exposed.
Hui Lijing takes care of the old man's face, but Cherry doesn't.
"Grandpa is bragging again."
"I was caught stealing my pudding yesterday."
Cherry looked at her grandfather, and when she thought that half of the pudding left yesterday was gone in the morning, her little face suddenly wrinkled.
"Hahaha, that was an accident."
Tao Tao's grandfather touched the back of his bare head and pulled Tao Tao outside.
"So accidents can happen every day?"
Cherry looked unbelieving.
"Of course, surprises are everywhere!"
"You have to know that when grandpa was young, he often destroyed entire cities..."
"Well, well, it's all thanks to you, grandpa."
"Furthermore, Grandpa, you even defeated a big devil from an alien planet with one punch."
Before Grandpa Cherry finished speaking, he was interrupted by Cherry.
"right."
Cherry's grandfather smiled and nodded.
However, Cherry didn't believe it at all.
"boast!"
"How could the grandfather who stole my pudding be a superhero?"
Cherry said with a flat mouth.
jingle!
The wind chimes are ringing.
The figures of grandfather and grandson disappeared behind the door.
Hui Lijing shook her head with a smile and began to clear the bar.
She sees her grandfather and grandson bickering almost every day and has long been used to it.
But Mrs. He looked a little lost in thought.
The wandering Onmyoji has been hanging around in the "other world" all year round, working hard to revive his family. The people he comes into contact with every day are either gloomy, strange, or violent and abnormal.
If something goes wrong at all, they will get into a fight.
He hadn't seen such a warm scene for a long, long time.
It took so long that he almost forgot.
Now that he saw it suddenly, the softest part of his heart was touched.
family.
That was something beyond his reach.
However, precisely because of this, he felt more and more valuable.
"very nice."
The wandering Onmyoji said silently in his heart.
Then, he turned his head and whispered to Hui Lijing——
"Thanks."
"Um?"
Hui Lijing was stunned.
Then he shook his head.
A weirdo.
Hui Lijing commented like this.
From the moment the other party followed her to the White Bear Cafe in the afternoon, and then sat in the corner without saying a word, Hui Lijing regarded the other party as a weirdo.
Of course, it's not that Hui Lijing didn't understand why the other party came.
It was precisely because of this that Hui Lijing did not expel the other party.
After all, the other party can be considered a good person.
The other party also appeared here because he was worried about her safety.
But Hui Lijing really wanted to tell the other party that she didn't need it.
She has a way of protecting herself.
Although she had just come into contact with the 'mysterious side', Hui Lijing gained considerable confidence after Jason's simple instruction.
Fire, electricity.
It is the best and easiest thing for her to master at this stage.
Once these are mastered, her safety is worry-free.
What if these things can't deal with those monsters on the 'mysterious side'?
She still has a way.
Or rather...
She believes in Jason!
She believes that Jason will show up when she is in danger!
Just like the last few times.
Therefore, Hui Lijing really wanted the wandering Onmyoji to leave.
However, in the end, the kind-hearted female detective said nothing and just made a cup of coffee for the wandering Onmyoji.
Instead of asking about adding milk and sugar, he put the coffee mate and sugar on the cup and saucer and brought them over together, letting the wandering Onmyoji choose.
"Thanks."
The wandering Onmyoji was stunned for a while and then thanked him again.
"You're welcome."
“The cheapest instant coffee.”
The female detective said and got busy again.
The wandering Onmyoji put all the coffee mate and sugar into the coffee cup, stirred it slightly, and then picked it up.
He doesn't hate bitter food, but he prefers sweet food.
Therefore, you can add as much sugar as you can.
The wandering onmyoji who was leaning on the chair in the corner and holding a cup of coffee did not forget to stare outside.
Um?
When he saw a figure flashing past outside the street, the wandering Onmyoji frowned and gently put down his coffee cup.
jingle!
The wandering Onmyoji figure quickly walked out of the cafe, and when the figure was about to leave, he grabbed the other person's collar.
"Let go! Let go!"
"It's me, Mrs. He!"
"Me! Me!"
The man, who was not tall but quite bloated, started to struggle after being grabbed by the collar.
The other party called out the name of the wandering onmyoji in a rapid voice, and pointed at his nose, indicating that he was an acquaintance of the wandering onmyoji.
However, Mrs. He sneered.
"Of course I know it's you."
"But precisely because it is you, I am curious as to why you appear here."
"Don't tell me you're here for coffee."
The wandering Onmyoji said while using his palms hard.
Immediately, the bloated man in front of him was picked up by the wandering Onmyoji.
The other party immediately felt suffocated and his face turned red.
However, the wandering Onmyoji showed no mercy.
Because he knew who the bastard in front of him was.
Seijiro, the biggest intelligence dealer in the area, also runs some illegal businesses.
The other party always knows exactly what is happening nearby.
There are some puzzling thefts and the like, and the other party will most likely be involved.
Of course, the other party's illegal business is not limited to these.
The other party will also do business like mercenaries and killers.
As long as... the price is high enough.
Simply put, this is a bottomless bastard.
Such a bastard appeared nearby and instantly attracted the attention of the wandering Onmyoji.
You know, the other party has no benefit and cannot afford to do it early.
Appearing nearby and deliberately flashing past his eyes, if nothing happened, the wandering Onmyoji was the first to not believe it.
Therefore, when the opponent's suffocation reached an extreme level, the wandering Onmyoji finally let go.
thump.
Seijiro fell to the ground.
Huchi, wheeze.
The information dealer was breathing heavily.
After a full four or five seconds, the opponent finally calmed down.
"You guy, if you can't make a lot of money, I will never appear in front of you."
The tipster complained.
"Oh, if I didn't know that you could provide information, do you think you would be able to see the sun tomorrow?"
The wandering Onmyoji sneered.
"So, I'm still alive."
"I am worthy and can always live."
"Moreover, life is very nourishing."
Seijiro raised his head very proudly.
Then, he said directly to the wandering Onmyoji——
"There's news about you."
"10,000 yuan."
"Do you want to listen?"
Seijiro showed the face of a profiteer. As he spoke, he raised his right thumb and rubbed it quickly on his middle finger and index finger.
The wandering Onmyoji frowned.
It’s not that Seijiro’s prices are too high.
Although the other party has no bottom line, the reason why the other party is still able to do business is that the goods are genuine.
To put it simply, the other party quoted 10,000 yuan.
Then this news is worth 10,000 yuan.
And the news about his 10,000 yuan...
Could it be that my life experience has been exposed?
Thinking of this, the wandering Onmyoji's heart tightened.
If his identity is exposed, he will have to leave immediately.
Otherwise, it is very likely to affect the people around you.
No matter it is Master Tongshou Temple or Ms. Hui Lijing, he does not want to implicate these two truly good people.
Thinking of this, he nodded calmly.
"explain!"
"Hey, the accident that happened at Tongshou Temple this morning was not an accident, but was manipulated by someone."
Seijiro said with a smile.
However, such words made the wandering Onmyoji grab his collar again.
nonsense!
In the scene in the morning, if it wasn't manipulated by someone, how could the people from 'Hua Ying' appear so coincidentally?
"Are you kidding me?"
The wandering Onmyoji said in a deep voice.
"No, no no."
"Don't be impatient, listen to me slowly."
Looking at the wandering onmyoji with a sullen face, Seijiro smiled instead.
He didn't mean to titillate.
It was just that it was strangled too tightly.
At this time, relax.
It's okay to say it's revenge.
However, he will not admit it.
Of course, he also knows how to control the heat and really anger the man in front of him?
He wouldn't dare.
He still wants to live.
He is a businessman who makes money.
As for the rest?
Just make money.
The intelligence dealer suppressed the smile on his face and began to speak seriously.
"It was someone from a branch of the Hanakayuan family who colluded with someone from Hanazakura."
"They not only want to test the strength of Jason, the helper Huakai Yuanqing found, but also want to deal with the disobedient people internally."
"That's why there was a scene in the morning."
"Of course, this is not the end."
"They're just getting started."
"You also know that the system of the 'Huakaiyuan' family is doomed to be a battle between dragons and tigers every time the family separates and enters the main house. This time? Naturally, it is no exception."
Flowers blooming at home?
The wandering Onmyoji was stunned.
He didn't expect that the Huakaiyuan family would be involved.
Moreover, Jason also collaborated with Huakai Yuanqing!
The flowers are blooming and the garden is sunny, he knows that.
Strong, very discerning, and a pretty good person.
That……
Does Hanakaiyuan Qing know that Jason is of the bloodline of a great demon?
The wandering Onmyoji guessed.
If you know, it's okay.
The Onmyoji family does not reject such blood.
Even, to some extent, it is quite welcome.
But if you don’t know...
What is Jason's plan?
No wonder Master Tongshou Temple left Jason in Tongshou Temple!
You have to keep an eye on this guy!
Keep an eye on it!
The wandering Onmyoji was thinking in his heart, but he was saying it in his mouth.
"That's it?"
"This kind of news is not worth 10,000 yuan."
"Of course it's more than that!"
"I also have a name here...hehe."
The information dealer said and rubbed his fingers again.
The wandering onmyoji frowned.
Finally, he took out an ingot of gold from his arms and threw it over.
No one carries that much cash.
Moreover, 'Inner World' gold is more popular.
Seijiro caught the gold with bright eyes and took a bite. After confirming that it was gold, he immediately put it into his arms.
"Thank you for your patronage."
"That name is-"
"Under the mountain!"
After saying that, Seijiro was ready to leave.
Then, after taking two steps, he suddenly remembered something.
"As a good employer, I hope you will not return to Tongshou Temple for the time being. There is trouble happening there."
This time, Seijiro didn't stop after saying that and trotted away.
And the wandering Onmyoji?
Turned around and returned to the cafe.
A moment later, Hui Lijing drove her car and rushed towards Tongshou Temple like crazy.
At the same time, Huakai Yuanqing's face turned gloomy after hearing the attendant's report.
Without asking, he knew that someone was causing trouble.
but--
"What's the reason?"
Huakaiyuan Qing asked in a deep voice.
"The reason is..."
"Of course there is someone better than you!"
Just as the attendant was about to speak, he was interrupted by a voice.
Following this voice, a young man led several people into Tongshou Temple.
The other person's face is somewhat similar to Huakai Yuanqing's, but his eyebrows are full of arrogance.
As soon as he came in, the other party was tit for tat with Huakai Yuanqing, refusing to give in to each other.
"The flowers are blooming in the garden, what are you doing here?"
Huakaiyuan Qing asked rudely.
Huakai Yuanzhi sneered and looked at Jason, or the gourd on Jason's waist. The young man stared at Jason and said word by word: "Of course I came here to take back the family.
