[Interstellar] King of Food

Seeing Li Haoxuan looking at him angrily, Gu Xin, who vaguely guessed the identity of this young man, broke out in a cold sweat, and asked stiffly, "...Is there anything about me that makes you unhappy?"

Li Haoxuan rubbed his nose: "Not really, but if you dress like this from the beginning, I don't have to lose an employee who has spent a lot of time training and has outstanding work ability, and the only flaw is his face and cleanliness. "

Gu Xin:? ? ?

"Since you've woken up, go home quickly. Seeing as you're not very old, your parents will worry if you don't go back." Li Haoxuan said.

A melancholy expression appeared on Gu Xin's face: "No one will worry about me, I have no family anymore."

Li Haoxuan's eyes widened in surprise.

Gu smiled bitterly: "Not everyone can be as lucky as you. You have both parents and brothers and sisters who are about the same age as you, and enjoy the meticulous care and love of your family..."

"How do you know that I have both parents and brothers and sisters?" Li Haoxuan frowned at him.

"The early retirement policy promulgated decades ago has caused a sharp decline in the labor participation rate of the elderly and a reduction in the size of the labor force, which has further exacerbated the labor shortage. A series of supporting welfare policies, each child can receive a substantial subsidy, which is used to repay the housing loan and the child's future education, and the effect is remarkable now, so I subconsciously feel that you have brothers and sisters."

"Ah, that's right." Li Haoxuan nodded, although he still felt something was wrong, but the carefree Li Haoxuan still brushed past this, and asked why Gu Xin said that no one would worry about him.

"Can I drink some calming tea first?" Gu Xin asked, licking his chapped lips.

"Okay, I'll go soak right now." Li Haoxuan nodded.

He plans to make some lavender tea, which has the effect of eliminating tension and calming the nerves. First, he takes out the sealed lavender in the refrigerator, uses his thumb and forefinger to grab a handful of lavender with strong fragrance and puts it into the teapot, and then Add licorice with unique sweetness and goji berries with good nourishing effect, pour hot boiled water, simmer for a few minutes, add the top grade of honey-longan honey and passion fruit juice, which is known as the king of fruit juice, with a small Stir well with a spoon, then add an appropriate amount of dried and shredded lemon peel, and the lavender tea is ready.

Gu Xin started his narration while slowly sipping his tea.

Gu Xin's mother is a prostitute who does skin and meat business every day, barely able to support her and Gu Xin, but if there is no customer on a certain day, they will starve that day. This kind of family environment makes Gu Xin very insecure .His mother doesn't like this child very much, she thinks that he is dull and never speaks every day, like a debt collector, who beats and scolds him, and clamors from time to time to send him to the customers who eat all men and women to earn money for herself. money spent.

Criticism, accusation, threats, and abuse anytime and anywhere made Gu Xin feel very frightened, because he was afraid of being abandoned, he showed an excessive pursuit of perfection, and could not accept any defects that appeared in his life.A prostitute was tortured to death because the client had special hobbies. The biggest dream of the prostitute was to save enough money to redeem herself who was sold to the procuress by her parents, and use the remaining money to travel and experience different things. life.

Gu Xin cremated the man he loved and hated, and poured his ashes into the sea.When she was alive, she was trapped in the red light district. After she died, Gu Xin hoped that her soul could enjoy different scenery along with the sea.

People from the Killer Organization collected such orphans from all over the world who would not attract the attention of others even if they disappeared, and brought them back to the organization for a period of cruel training. It is not so much training as it is Raising Gu, Gu Xin finally killed other children who entered the organization in the same batch in the competition, and thus became a qualified killer.He never said his name, as if he wanted to bury his past together. The killer organization named them according to the order of the heavenly stems and earthly branches. The boss gave him the name Gu Xin.

Li Haoxuan was tearful when he heard that, facing Gu Xin's astonished gaze, he wiped his eyes in embarrassment, and said with a sob: "You sit here, I'll make you something to eat."

Seeing his leaving figure, Gu Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "I gave my identity to the second prince in advance, and I am not a suspicious person who concealed his identity and approached the second prince with bad intentions. His brother shouldn't be looking for me for no reason."

Li Haoxuan poured the milk that had been stirred and thickened after adding sugar and butter into a plate, put it in the refrigerator to freeze, and began to use ingredients such as flour and oil to make crispy milk.Gu Xin, who followed Li Haoxuan into the back kitchen, smelled the scent of milk, swallowed, and there was a little longing in his eyes. You must know that Gu Xin is a sweet tooth, and Gu Xin always puts sweets in his pocket during the lurking process. A few pieces of chocolate, but how can hard chocolate compare to the hot fried fresh milk that Li Haoxuan made at this time.

After making the crispy syrup, Li Haoxuan touched the iced milk base, turned his head and looked suspiciously at Gu Xin, who was about to move.Li Haoxuan turned his head, and obviously heard Gu Xin's breath, suppressed the smile on his lips, and turned his head quickly, just in time to meet the eyes of Gu Xin who was sneaking at him.Gu Xin's expression froze for a moment, then he immediately adjusted his expression to be innocent, blinking at Li Haoxuan - the milk in his hand.

Li Haoxuan sighed helplessly, feeling that the image of the ruthless and unblinking killer in the movie collapsed in his heart. Gu Xin didn't look like a killer, but rather like a child reaching for candy with an adult.He was thinking about something in his heart, but he cut the milk base into small diamond-shaped pieces, dipped it in dry starch, hung it with crispy paste, fried it in an oil pan until golden brown, put it on a plate, sprinkled it with a spoonful of sugar, and served it outside on the table.

Pick up a piece of steaming fried fresh milk, bite off the golden and crispy outer skin, and you can see the white, soft, and rich milk flavor inside.Gu Xin's expression was like a vicious dog who saw a bone, or a beggar who saw a delicious soft bread, like a hungry tiger rushing for food, the chopsticks moved in the air, and wiped out most of the plate in a short while.

Li Haoxuan sighed, and said: "Eat slowly, if it's not enough, I'll make it for you."

Hearing such words, the famous bloodthirsty killer in the circle slowed down and started to eat quietly.

After eating, Gu Xin cleaned the dishes in the sink. Seeing Li Haoxuan's surprised expression, he stroked his hair and said with a smile, "I always feel that washing with an automatic washing machine is not clean, so it's better to do it myself."

Li Haoxuan nodded understandingly, and before he had time to speak, he saw his elder brother coming in aggressively with a pile of documents, pulled Li Haoxuan aside, and said softly: "Xiaoxuan, the person next to you is a person who decided to quit the organization." Killer, the leader of the organization issued a hunting order to kill him within a month, are you sure you want to put this big trouble on your side?"

Li Haoxuan looked at the inexplicably pitiful figure of Gu Xin sitting on the seat with his head bowed, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Brother, Gu Xin is a knife in the hands of those in power. He is not really a guilty person. Those who publish information and hire them to kill. I know that many organizations in the underworld can only enter but cannot exit, because they know a lot of things they shouldn't know. People with ghosts in their hearts are afraid that they will reveal the secret, but Gu Xin really It fits my eye perfectly, and I want to keep him."

Li Jiushu nodded with a slightly relaxed expression: "It seems that he didn't hide his identity from you, which he did well. If you think he's interesting, just keep him. A little killer can't make any trouble. I will ask my subordinates to help solve those people who were hunted down. These are the materials related to Gu Xin. If you have time to read it, you can use this person if you want, but you must know what he has done these years, and you can’t be confused. , Don’t help count the money after being sold.”

Li Haoxuan, who received a thick stack of documents, hugged him emotionally: "Brother, I knew you were the best!"

Li Jiushu smiled and rubbed his hair: "Okay, I have something to do, I'm leaving first, when I have time to go home for a few days, my parents and Li Rui miss you very much...me too."

Li Haoxuan nodded vigorously: "Yes, I will!"

After Li Jiushu left, he sat on the seat and curled up trying his best to hope that the famous "Military God" would ignore him. Then Gu Xin sat up straight and said with a smile: "Thank you, Second Prince, if it weren't for you, I must be dead this time, if you need anything to do in the future, you can come to me, and I will do my best to help you solve it."

Li Haoxuan said with a smile: "What's the matter? I can't just ask you to kill him for me because I don't like anyone?"

Gu Xin shook his head seriously and said: "The reason why I quit the organization is because I don't want to have blood on my hands in this life. I only hate myself for waking up too late, and the crimes I committed will never be cleared for the rest of my life. When the assassination of the youngest son of a politician broke his mind, I was still a crazy killer without any moral principles, but when I saw the peaceful sleeping face of that child, I suddenly felt that no one but gods could Determine the length of another person's life. We have no right to decide whether a person should live or die. This is the domain of the gods alone. I informed the father of the child that this move is a betrayal of the organization. I gave the order to kill, but I don't regret what I did."
