Mystery: Chaos Path

#109 - Master Luo fights the Red Angel?

Luo Lin slept soundly, not until the heat death of the universe, but until the next morning.

Luo Lin naturally didn't mind this. He tidied himself up neatly and prepared to go downstairs for breakfast, only to see Klein standing at the door, talking to a young man wearing a coat and a hat.

When the young man saw Luo Lin, his body stiffened obviously. It wasn't that he was afraid of Luo Lin, but purely the reaction of encountering a stranger when discussing topics that couldn't be heard by others.

"This is my assistant, you don't need to be nervous." Klein explained quickly, putting the label of 'assistant' on Luo Lin without a second thought.

"Hi!" Luo Lin waved in their direction, not intending to interfere, but followed the scent to the kitchen to find something to eat.

The young man, Ian, obviously breathed a sigh of relief at this sight and continued the previous topic, saying, "Sherlock, can you take me to see Mr. Zerial's body?"

It turned out that yesterday, a young man named Ian had approached Klein, who had just arrived in Backlund, with a commission to find out about a man named Zerial.

As a metaphysical detective, Klein quickly found the target—in a sewer, the man named Zerial was dead, and Klein had discovered his body.

Klein naturally wouldn't refuse the client Ian's reasonable request. After saying a few words to him, he prepared to change clothes and go out.

Just then, Luo Lin came out with half an apple pie. Seeing Klein's appearance of going out, he wasn't surprised, but asked, "Who made this apple pie? It's pretty good."

"Uh, Mr. Red made it, he's a very good cook." Klein's expression was a little subtle as he said this, "I had already made breakfast, but Mr. Red tasted it and was very dissatisfied, so he personally went to the kitchen to remake breakfast."

"He has this skill? You really can't judge a book by its cover." Luo Lin raised his eyebrows in slight surprise, then freed a hand to pat Klein on the shoulder, comforting him, "It's okay, Sherlock, Little Red is just too picky, your cooking skills aren't bad, really."

"Actually, I didn't mind that, I was just a little surprised that Mr. Red could cook." Klein shook his head with a wry smile.

"Then where did Little Red go?" Luo Lin asked with some doubt after taking a bite of the apple pie.

"He went out after breakfast, probably has something to do!" Klein recalled for a second and replied, then glanced at Ian, who was waiting at the door, and said, "I have to go out too, so I won't chat with you, see you later."

"See you!" Luo Lin waved to Klein, watched him change his clothes and go out, then carried the apple pie to the coffee table, made himself a cup of coffee, and began to think while eating: "Speaking of which, the client just now was Ian, so..."

Luo Lin raised his eyebrows, his expression showing a hint of anticipation: "If Master Luo still rushes in like in the original, wouldn't he have to take on the three of us alone?"

In the original story, because of Ian's commission, Klein was drawn into the struggle between the Loen military and the Intis Medici spies, and was eventually forced to sell his services and kill the Intis ambassador, and hired Sharon to kill Rosago who came to his door. Although he paid a huge price, he successfully obtained the Seer characteristic, allowing Mr. "World" to be successfully born.

And now, obviously under the guidance of fate, Klein still received Ian's commission, but it is unknown whether the subsequent events will develop as in the original story.

"What bad idea are you up to again, smiling so happily?"

Medici's voice suddenly sounded, as always with a hint of sarcasm. The next second, his figure emerged from the reflection of the window, once again transforming from a paper figure to three-dimensional.

"You're breaking my heart, I haven't had any bad ideas. Although I'm a fun-loving person, I'm a firm supporter of happy endings!"

As Luo Lin said this, he gestured to Medici with the last bite of apple pie on the plate, and said with a smile, "By the way, the cooking is good, but I didn't expect you to cook personally."

"Heh!" Although Medici didn't understand what the so-called happy ending was, he could probably guess what it meant. He sneered at this, then glanced at the plate in front of Luo Lin, and ridiculed:

"There's no way, who told me to take care of two cubs who can't even take care of themselves? If I don't cook, I'm afraid I'll starve you to death."

This was obviously mocking Luo Lin and Klein.

Luo Lin blinked, then nodded and said, "Indeed, Amon and Adam should be quite difficult to take care of, it's hard for you to develop such a skill in taking care of cubs."

Luo Lin certainly understood Medici's sarcasm, but that didn't prevent him from distorting the facts.

Medici was too lazy to refute after hearing this, and just rolled his eyes.

Luo Lin then took a sip of coffee and continued, "So it was the True Creator's order?"

Luo Lin didn't think that Medici would really cook personally just because Klein's breakfast didn't suit his taste.

"Aren't you very clear about this?" Medici curled his lips, took out an apple from who knows where, took a vicious bite, and said, "The Lord told me to take care of you, it's hell!"

"The capable are always busy, after all, you're skilled in taking care of cubs." Luo Lin said a few comforting words, then asked seemingly casually, "Did you go to the East Borough just now?"

"Are you following me?" Medici's red eyes looked at Luo Lin, slightly sharp.

"I don't have that much free time, why would I follow you for no reason? If I want to know what you're doing, it's better to just ask." Luo Lin rolled his eyes, pushed the finished plate aside, took a sip of coffee, and then said:

"It's just a bit of deduction. I guess the True Creator should have asked you to investigate the situation there in the East Borough, right?"

"Crack—" Medici glanced at Luo Lin upon hearing this. He took another bite of the apple, his eyes flashed with thought, then he seemed to understand something and said, "What did you do?"

"I just provided you with an opportunity." Luo Lin opened his mouth without blinking, "Yesterday, Mr. Sun and I took a stroll around Backlund, felt the customs of this era. In order to let Mr. Sun fully understand this era, I specially took Him to the East Borough to take a look."

Medici lowered his eyes upon hearing this, obviously recalling something, and said, "The Lord will not tolerate such sinful places, He always hopes that everyone can live well."

"Yes, Mr. Sun is indeed very dissatisfied with the situation in the East Borough, so He hopes to make some changes, or rather, a revolution." Luo Lin laughed as he said this, he looked up at the Red Angel in front of him, and continued:

"This world will sooner or later break out into a war. Mr. Sun and I both hope that it will be a war of revolution, and this is indeed an opportunity for you, isn't it?"
