Chapter 16: 1 Lunch

Three days later, Luo Xingyi received the first bucket of gold from Bao Nihao as promised—money, a lot of money, the only official currency currently designated by the Eastern Military Region.

He entrusted his bag to open a bank account, saved most of it, and only kept [-] yuan in cash with him.

Although the Eastern Military Region is not truly completely unified, because of its comprehensive strength in the world, the new currency, as a regular currency issued by the central government, first achieved regional unity in currency circulation.

The gold reserves of the Eastern Military Region are considerable, and the exchange rate of the Singapore currency is low, so the figure of [-] can be seen after the currency unit is placed.

It's lunch time now, and Luo Xingyi, who has made a lot of money, is now picky and confident. He can no longer eat the vegetarian set meal of the proprietress, and he enthusiastically drags Qu Lin to the streets to find the legendary bliss Best restaurant in town.

Qu Lin, as a god-man who eats the top delicacies and has the same expression as white flour steamed buns, doesn't pay much attention to his appetite. He is obviously more concerned about Luo Xingyi's next plan than where the restaurant is. Wait, where are you going?"

Because of his status as a wanted criminal with a high bounty, no matter where Qu Lin went, he could not stay for too long, otherwise he would definitely attract the attention of the Central Military Region and bring disaster there.He also spent some time in Bliss City and got rid of Pei Yongqi and Yixian, but there was no guarantee that the Central Military Region would not take any more actions.

He considered leaving.

After getting along with each other these days, Luo Xingyi has become very accustomed to Qu Lin's straight-forward chat style, but now his mind is full of where the delicious restaurants are, and he has no clue about his future, so he casually replied: "I don't know." , as long as you don’t get caught and sliced ​​up for no apparent reason, you can go anywhere.”

Qu Lin nodded, as if to say hello to Luo Xingyi first, he said: "I plan to leave Bliss City in two days, and go north to check the information of another team of mercenaries."

Luo Xingyi was very curious when he heard this, and asked him: "Hey, you said you don't have much to do with 'Moon Palace', why do I think you pay more attention to this issue than me?"

When Qu Lin glanced at him, Luo Xingyi understood, and stopped, "Okay, it's your secret again."

Ever since the two of them figured out each other's identities on the day of the Appreciation Meeting, they didn't look at the stars or the moon at night, they stood on the rooftop and chatted, and they reached the principle of peaceful coexistence and friendship.It can also be regarded as the friendship between gentlemen and honesty.

It's just that who doesn't have any secrets?This is normal, the two of them never thought of finding out each other's secrets, and they didn't talk in-depth - Qu Lin has a lot of secrets, did Luo Xingyi tell him the truth about Wang Shuliang?

So, put yourself in the shoes of others, let your curiosity stop, and don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked.

Seeing that Luo Xingyi was so knowledgeable, Qu Lin felt that he was a little worried. He thought about it, and said to Luo Xingyi: "I will tell you if I need it in the future."

"Don't, don't, don't," Luo Xingyi refused for a second, "When I heard what you said, I felt that it was definitely not a good thing, I don't want to know!"

The two crossed a street and came to a smooth road.The street trees have not been repaired for many years, and one is still alive and two are dead, but they are crooked and malnourished, which is very consistent with the painting style of the local residents.

The weather has entered autumn, and a thick pile of leaves has fallen from the living street trees, and no one has cleaned them. When the wind blows, the whole road is covered with dead branches and broken leaves, which make a rattling sound when stepped on.

The recent downfall of Zhang Wuye has triggered conflicts among various forces, and the city of Bliss is also quite unstable, with burning, killing and looting everywhere, and the sound of gunfire resounding day and night.Those who were capable left early, and those who were incapable had to hide at home and close the doors and windows to save their lives.

The autumn wind is bleak, garbage and fallen leaves are flying together, the abandoned buildings are dilapidated, coupled with the dark and low-pressure clouds in the sky, it seems that the sense of doomsday is still lingering here for a long time.

There were a lot of fallen leaves on the road. Luo Xingyi looked at the map he had drawn while recognizing the way. He didn't check for a while, and almost stepped on the sparrow that was half covered with dead leaves on the ground.

Qu Lin quickly pulled Luo Xingyi back, "Stop!"

Hearing this, Luo Xingyi kept his posture and glanced down with one foot in the air. When he saw the dying little sparrow, he moved his foot and took two steps to the side to avoid it.

When he just wanted to laugh at Qu Lin's murder, he didn't even blink his eyes. Seeing that the little sparrow was so caring, he saw that the person he wanted to laugh at had already squatted down. He quickly picked up the sparrow and put it in the palm of his hand. With two fingers stuck on the sparrow's head, he held it vaguely with his wings wrapped around it, and picked it up.

Luo Xingyi was startled. Qu Lin, who is so ruthless when he starts his hands, actually pays attention to the life and death of a wild sparrow?

For a moment, he felt that Qu Lin was a very kind person, although in the next second, a negative textbook came out to slap him in the face, telling how his hands were full of blood.But those rumors are false and true, who knows if they are true or not?Qu Lin himself didn't care, and others had no time to argue.

Seeing Qu Lin seriously inspecting the situation of the sparrow, a word that almost made him laugh out of Luo Xingyi's mind suddenly popped up: iron blood and tenderness!

After Qu Lin finished watching the sparrow, he looked up and saw Luo Xingyi's mouth tensed to smile or not, his face was almost blushing. For some reason, he changed his mind, knowing what Luo Xingyi was laughing at, and asked calmly: "how?"

"It's nothing." Luo Xingyi raised his hand and pressed the corner of his mouth to keep himself from laughing, "You are really a caring person."

Qu Lin didn't think there was any love or not, but Luo Xingyi said so, so he was disrespectful: "Well, a little bit."

The little sparrow was not injured, but was a little short of water. Qu Lin planned to feed it some water before releasing it, so he took it on the road and continued towards the delicious restaurant.

But it may be that today's Huang Li wrote that it is not suitable for dining in restaurants. Both of them have not finished this road, and they encountered an unexpected situation.

Next to this avenue is a narrow dark alley, piled with discarded steel and wires, very hidden, if not for the sound of quarreling inside, people would really ignore it.

"No? I watched you take out that gold with my own eyes? What's there? Don't pretend to be garlic!"

A girl's voice sounded: "I'm done spending!"

Then there was a clear slap, and another man's voice said: "Don't talk to this kind of rotten bitch, let her suffer a little bit, and tell you the truth after being fucked."

"I'm so out of money! Ah—"

Luo Xingyi originally wanted to pretend not to see and hear but to concentrate on eating, but he couldn't hold back when he heard the girl's screams, so he stepped to the side of the road in two or three steps, and jumped onto the wall with one hand.

He stepped on the palm-width wall and passed quickly, with a ghostly figure. He didn't give the two men under the wall a chance to react, and kicked them aside with a fierce kick. block the wall.

Two men fell under the collapsed wall, one of them passed out immediately, and the other propped up half of his body with blood on his face, looking at Luo Xingyi in horror, his tongue was inflexible due to the injury, and he said with his tongue wide: " Four sets? (Who are you)"

"The embodiment of justice." Seeing that he could still speak, Luo Xingyi kicked up a stone next to his feet, and hit him on the forehead with precision.

After easily finishing off the two, Luo Xingyi turned around and glanced at the shivering girl curled up against the wall. Seeing that she was fine, she was about to return the same way, when the girl exclaimed in surprise, "Ah! It's you!" !"

Luo Xingyi was puzzled, "We know each other?"

The girl got up, hurriedly wiped the dust off her face with her sleeves, grinned at the corner of her mouth that was still bleeding, and smiled gratefully at him, "Well! I remember you, it was you who gave me a large piece of gold! "

Speaking of gold, Luo Xingyi recalled it, and vaguely remembered that he had indeed given a girl gold when he came.But that girl was full of heavy makeup, and he didn't even bother to pay attention to what she looked like, so naturally he didn't remember too clearly...

Thinking of this, Luo Xingyi took another look at the girl.

The girl in front of her didn't have any make-up today, she was wearing old clothes that were washed white and obviously didn't fit, she was thin and small, with injuries on her face, she looked less than 14 years old.

Thinking of her profession again, Luo Xingyi felt his throat choke, and quickly changed the topic to cover it up, "I just heard these two people talking about gold, what's going on?"

The girl seemed to be extremely cautious, and she didn't know where to put her hands. She said, "Those two people saw... I spent gold and thought I still had it, so they came to rob me."

... Now Luo Xingyi really doesn't know what to talk about.He didn't expect that one of his kind deeds would bring disaster to the girl, and he felt a little uncomfortable.At that time, he only wanted to send people away, but he forgot the principle of the crime of conceiving a treasure—those who attract others to covet them with treasures that they cannot protect with their own abilities usually end in misery.

It's not hard to imagine what would have happened to the girl if he hadn't happened to pass by here today.

Thinking of this, Luo Xingyi felt a little ashamed, and said to the girl, "Have you eaten yet? Otherwise, shall I treat you to a meal?"

"No, no, no," the girl quickly waved her hands, "You, you, saved me twice, I should reward you!"

At this time, Qu Lin also came over.He waited on the other side of the narrow alley for a long time but did not see Luo Xingyi coming out. He didn't think the local hooligans were capable of holding Luo Xingyi for so long, so he came to see what happened.

The alley was narrow and dark. Qu Lin first saw Luo Xingyi and a little girl standing face to face talking, and then glanced at the man next to him who had passed out. Seeing that both of them looked at him and stopped talking, he asked Luo Xingyi. Xing Yi: "It's over?"

Qu Lin's aura is very strong, and he has a solemn military posture in every movement. He has been away from the military academy for many years, but his meticulous and cold style has continued perfectly. It makes people feel gentle and amiable.

Seeing him coming, the girl shrank behind Luo Xingyi in fear, only showing half of her face to observe him.

Luo Xingyi reassured her, "It's okay, he is my friend." Then he introduced to Qu Lin and explained: "The child who was just rescued was robbed for some reason. I was just saying to take her to have a meal."

Qu Lin let out a "huh" without emotion, raised his legs and was about to walk back.

"Wait, wait a minute!" The girl suddenly bite the bullet and said, she raised her head and took a quick look at Qu Lin, thinking that although this man was cold and scary, he was really good-looking.I thought to myself that good-looking people really make friends with good-looking people.

Then she took a step back, turned around and ran to pick up something a few steps away, Luo Xingyi looked over and found that what she picked up was a vegetable basket.The vegetables are very fresh, they should have just been bought.

Carrying the vegetable basket and walking back, the girl looked at Luo Xingyi with bright eyes, hesitated and said, "Thank you, thank you for helping me." She grew up in this street, and she really didn't know how to say polite words. Thinking of the best way to express kindness—"I would like to invite you," she looked at Qu Lin timidly, "and your friends, let's eat..."

Afraid of being rejected, the girl added embarrassingly: "I just bought this dish, it's very fresh, and it's delicious when I cook it! It's delicious!"

"I... I have nothing to repay you."

Seeing the girl looking forward and looking like she was about to cry, Luo Xingyi, who was already a little guilty, looked at Qu Lin and asked him if he minded, "Is that okay?"

Qu Lin's eyes fell on the girl, and he sized her up.Seeing her pinching the basket uneasily, her face turned pale with nervousness, and then she turned her eyes to see Luo Xingyi's expression of "please, please, save face" beside her. It was surprising that Luo Xingyi, who was so picky, would agree to go For dinner, I obviously want to eat delicious restaurants after a day of trouble.

Subconsciously commenting on Luo Xingyi, he gave him this face and nodded.

After getting the consent, the girl jumped up excitedly with the food basket, "Great!" She quickly walked forward, "This way."

Seeing the figure of the girl leading the way bouncing in front, Luo Xingyi seemed to be infected by her joyful mood, smiled, and said to Qu Lin: "I thought it would be difficult to ask you to nod, just now I was thinking about it How can I convince you?"

Seeing the smile on his lips, Qu Lin suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his face politely, "After all, I have a heart—you are really a heart."

He never expected that what he said before teasing others would be answered back intact. Luo Xingyi pressed his forehead and laughed "haha" twice, but said: "No, it's different, I don't have as much love as you." The story about the girl Jin Zi was briefly mentioned to Qu Linqian, looking at the girl's back, his eyes were sad for a moment, and his tone lowered, "I just think that little girls should be happy."

Luo Xingyi kicked the small stone at his feet, "The road is boring, let's tell a story."

"Before, I lived next door to a pair of twins. My elder brother was introverted and shy, and my younger sister was very lively and spooky, but she was not in good health at all and had to stay in the laboratory for treatment most of the time... She I especially like a cartoon character that was popular at that time. Every time I went out to perform a mission, she would give me a very sweet mouthful of brother Xingyi and asked me to bring her a doll back—in fact, her room was already full of that. The peripherals of cartoon characters are gone, but I still enjoy collecting them.”

Speaking of this, Luo Xingyi smiled, pointed to the girl in front, and said: "They are about the same height, and they are all the same thin and small. Small things can make her happy all day."

"We all like her very much. As long as there is a mission to go out, we all try our best to bring her back with different dolls, but..."

This, but there is no content after a few seconds.Luo Xingyi was about to end it abruptly, when Qu Lin suddenly interjected: "It sounds like the atmosphere in 'Moon Palace' is good."

"That's right." Luo Xingyi hurried down the ladder, and took it up in a good manner, "Our 'Moon Palace' is pretty good, if it hadn't been completely sealed off, maybe someday I'd be happy to take you around turn."

When Luo Xingyi was not drinking, he didn't want to talk more about the "Moon Palace", so he moved the topic to Qu Lin after two or three sentences, "I just told you a story, you shouldn't repay me ?"

"What do you want?" Qu Lin asked him.

"No, shouldn't you also be emotional, and want to have a friendly exchange with me about childhood memories?"

Qu Lin felt baffled: "I don't want to."

Luo Xingyi: "...you lose followers so easily, do you know that?"
