An amiable old monk opened the door of the White Bear Cafe.
"Master Tongshou Temple, good evening."
Hui Lijing greeted politely.
"The real master is Jason. I'm just an old monk now."
"The master left a note at the door, saying that he was in the coffee shop downstairs."
"Can you help me lead the way?"
The old monk corrected Hui Lijing's words, and then put his hands together, very polite.
"certainly."
"follow me."
Hui Lijing turned around respectfully and led the way.
After all, the old monk of Tongshou Temple really saved them.
If it wasn't for the old monk of Tongshou Temple, she would have been caught and thrown into the water by those water ghosts of the 'Ghost River' long ago.
Therefore, Hui Lijing maintains her own humility.
Of course, it's also because of the old monk behind him, who will make people feel good about him unconsciously.
Although the clothes are very ordinary, there is an extraordinary temperament in the gestures, words and deeds, as if people saw the statues in the temple and couldn't help but feel admiration.
What is the highest state of camouflage
Not only did he deceive others, but he even deceived himself.
Since he became the master of Tongshou Temple, although the old monk of Tongshou Temple didn't adapt to it at first, his previous life of cheating on the streets allowed him to quickly adapt to this role and blend into it.
He didn't want to live up to his friend's best entrustment.
That's right, entrusted by a friend.
The old monk who has been 'eating and drinking' with him has long been regarded as a friend by him.
Although he doesn't admit it with his mouth, but in his heart
He has already approved it.
So, he persisted.
Insist on demanding yourself with the standard of a monk.
This is what he has done since he became an old monk of Tongshou Temple.
Maybe people in the world don't know what a monk should look like, but after seeing the old monk of Tongshou Temple, they always feel that this is what a monk should look like.
"Grandmaster!"
Pushing open the door of the box, Ryosuke got up immediately.
"Officer Ryosuke, please call me a monk."
The old monk of Tongshou Temple clasped his hands together in return.
Then, he looked at Jason.
The old monk still had regret in his eyes.
It was he who pulled Jason into this quagmire.
If you are not careful, you will lose your life.
It's really a sin, a sin.
Thinking in his heart, the old monk of Tongshou Temple bowed to Jason.
"Grandmaster."
The old monk of Tongshou Temple greeted Jason sincerely.
"Um."
Jason nodded slightly, motioning for him to sit down.
After clasping his palms together again, the old monk of Tongshou Temple sat down this time.
"Master, what do you want to drink?"
Hui Lijing asked.
"Clean water is fine."
The old monk of Tongshou Temple answered.
Although Tongshou Temple doesn't have so many rules and restrictions, eating and drinking, and marrying wives are not allowed, but the old monk of Tongshou Temple thinks that he should restrain himself.
Therefore, even when your hands are itchy, you will not sneak away to gamble.
I just throw the dice twice in my mind, as a way to satisfy my greed.
after
He will also silently recite the Heart Sutra ten times and tell his sins.
"Okay, wait a moment."
Hui Lijing turned and walked out.
Ryosuke also got up with a wink and walked outside the door.
Immediately, only Jason and the old monk Tongshou Temple were left in the private room.
"Master, I have reserved a place for the cooking booth."
"Excuse me, are you ready?"
asked the old monk.
"Can Hui Lijing and Ryosuke go together?"
Jason asked.
"Of course there is no problem."
"Miss Hui Lijing has a kind heart and is a rare partner."
"Officer Ryosuke is full of justice, and will be your good helper in the future, Master."
The old monk nodded with a smile.
Since Jason is going to take over the position of 'Master Tongshou Temple', he will naturally face many difficulties.
Compared to Jason, the difficulties he faced back then were nothing worth mentioning.
After all, there was no such thing as 'fearing the flag' back then.
Thinking of the matter of 'Fearing the Flag', the old monk felt more and more guilty.
He wished Jason could eat more.
The more he ate, the less guilty he felt.
However, even if Jason can eat, it is estimated that there is only enough food for 3-5 people.
well!
Sure enough, I am deeply sinful.
The old monk couldn't help but recite the Heart Sutra again.
Looking at the old monk's appearance, Jason probably guessed what the old monk was thinking.
"I'll eat as much as I can."
"I have a big appetite, though..."
Jason said so.
"It couldn't be better."
"Please eat with an appetite."
Before Jason finished speaking, the old monk said happily.
He wished Jason could eat more.
Eat a little more, and his sin will be lessened.
Speaking of which, the old monk couldn't wait to stand up, wanting to make atonement.
Jason shook his head, but didn't act immediately.
Instead ask.
"Do you know Hyerika?"
"Hui Lixiang benefactor?"
"I know!"
"She can be regarded as a friend of the old monk. She goes to Tongshou Temple to offer incense every month, and sometimes chats with the old monk. She is a female benefactor with a tough appearance but a soft heart."
The old monk of Tongshou Temple described the Hui Lixiang he knew.
Although there are some discrepancies with what Jason has learned temporarily, this does not prevent Jason from taking out his previous business card.
"Is this yours?"
Jason asked.
"be mine."
"I gave it to Hui Lixiang after donating 100,000 yuan to the merit box of Tongshou Temple. If she encounters some troubles that ordinary people can't solve, she can call me."
"About two weeks ago, when the female benefactor Hui Lixiang was offering incense at Tongshou Temple, she told me in a chat that she was going on a long trip... Why, what happened to her?"
After the old monk took the business card, he checked it briefly and admitted it with certainty.
Then, looking at Jason's expression, the old monk finally realized something was wrong belatedly.
"Two weeks ago, Hui Lixiang disappeared—Hui Lijing informed me."
"The reason I live here is because I promised Hui Lijing to help her find her sister."
Jason said.
"Missing?"
"impossible."
The old monk shook his head again and again.
Then, facing Jason's gaze, the old monk organized his words slightly, and said: "Although I can't confirm what the female benefactor of Hui Lixiang does, this female benefactor is definitely not simple. There are a huge number of bodyguards, and they are also good fighters, not far from real fighters."
"oh?"
Jason is interested.
"In the previous 'King of Fighters', Hui Lixiang participated as a candidate for the trio of 'Female Fighters'."
"Although she didn't play in the end, being able to become a candidate is enough to prove the strength of this female benefactor."
"besides… "
When the old monk said this, he suddenly stopped.
"what else?"
Jason raised an eyebrow.
No one likes a person who talks half-talked and tantalizes his appetite.
Jason is no exception.
"Sorry, it's just that I can't confirm whether this rumor is true or not."
"Because, it's really amazing."
The old monk first apologized, and then, under the urging of Jason's gaze, continued: "It is rumored that this female benefactor once used the method of 'hundreds of people' to kick the 'extreme flow' out of the gymnasium."
"'Extreme Flow' is the place of the legendary 'Dragon and Tiger Flurry'."
"Although those two legendary fighters have long since disappeared into history, their background is still unfathomable."
"Therefore, everyone in the other world denies this rumor."
"I also curiously asked Huilixiang's benefactor, she didn't say anything, but shook her head."
"Obviously, she's in denial, too."
deny
Jason narrowed his eyes.
Shaking your head doesn't mean denying it.
It's also possible that you don't want to say it.
Or promised something.
In short, Hui Lixiang is a more complicated person than it seems.
"Do you know anything else about Erika?"
"I asked Tsuchimikado Moto before, and he didn't know anything about Erika."
Jason asked what he was confused about.
Since the old monk of Tongshou Temple knew Hui Lixiang, it is impossible for Tu Yumenyuan to know nothing about Hui Lixiang.
"Of course Tsuchimikado won't know."
"Because, that Huilixiang benefactor used a fake name—"
"King!"
The old monk of Tongshou Temple said a name.
"King?"
Jason whispered to himself.
Although it is still unclear why Hui Lixiang disappeared, but with a real 'name', Jason believes that it will be much easier to find Hui Lixiang back and forth.
For this reason, Jason couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He is a man who does not make commitments lightly.
But as long as a commitment is made, it means doing what it says.
He promised Hui Lijing to help her find her sister, so he must do it.
But finding someone in the whole world is naturally like finding a needle in a haystack.
But when this person becomes special, everything naturally becomes different.
"Thanks."
Jason solemnly thanked the old monk of Tongshou Temple.
"no no."
"I didn't do you any favors."
"Just to inform you of some information."
"Even if I don't tell you, I believe you will find out soon."
The old monk waved his hands again and again.
"I will remember this favor."
Jason replied like this.
At the same time, in the bottom of my heart, I changed my goal to: 'Eat 70% full in a while, and eat 50% full'.
"What?"
"I have news about my sister."
"Is she... King?"
When Hui Lijing brought the water in, Jason truthfully relayed the news he had just received.
Immediately, Hui Lijing was taken aback.
Hui Lijing, a female detective, has heard about King's news.
The rumored female fighter.
But my sister, isn't that guy a senior tea artist
Why become a female fighter
Besides, didn't she say that she hates fighting the most
How could it be possible to become a fighter
Hui Lijing stood there in a daze.
However, she didn't ask Jason back.
She believed Jason wouldn't lie to herself about something like this.
"I'm going to collect information on that guy."
As Hui Lijing said this, she ran out in a hurry.
And at this time, Urashima, who had been on the phone for a long time, finally came back.
"Sorry, I'm so sorry."
"Old people are getting old, and they always like to chatter."
"And my father and mother have been asking about my marriage."
The young Urashima said in embarrassment.
"Urashima, are you getting married?"
The old monk asked with great interest.
The younger he was, the more he liked to join in the fun.
"I don't even have a sweetheart. I can't possibly get married. It's just that the family has arranged a blind date... I have to deal with it." Urashima said this, as if he felt that it was a bit bad to say, and immediately added: "I I didn't play with the idea of trusting someone, I just went to have a simple meal and express my thoughts that I don't want to fall in love for the time being... "
Snapped!
Before he could finish speaking, Urashima was interrupted by a slap from the back.
"You guy, if you meet someone you like, you must fight for it."
"Don't stick to the rules! Don't worry about face!"
"You must have the courage to pursue it!"
"Otherwise you'd be an old bachelor like me!"
Ryosuke gave the younger generation real advice.
"Um."
"When love comes, don't run away."
"Maybe... once in a lifetime."
The old monk also agreed.
"As long as it's a normal, ordinary girl, even if it's not very beautiful, it's worth a try. Maybe after you try it, you'll find that this is what you want?"
Jason also spoke.
When he was in his hometown, he had fantasized about it more than once, the dream of having an ordinary girl and him living an honest and safe life.
Just an ordinary girl.
Don't be too specific.
looks ordinary.
The family is ordinary.
Normal character.
It's better to be a passerby.
Can…
The reality is too cruel.
Distinctive 'women' always gather around him.
No!
That cannot be called a woman.
It should be called a distinctive 'cat and dog'.
Sure enough, shouldn't I have set my dream of opening a pet hospital in high school
Jason mused.
Facing the three people's advice, Urashima was completely at a loss, he scratched his head, and finally chose to change the subject.
"Your Excellency Jason, my grandfather confirmed that his grandfather was indeed a fisherman."
Urashima said.
"Has anything wonderful happened to him?"
Jason asked immediately.
You know, this is a major event related to the 'Dragon Palace Seafood Pot'.
Jason was naturally very caring.
"I think should not be?"
"I'm going home next weekend."
"Your Excellency Jason, you can come home with me."
Urashima invited.
"good!"
Jason immediately agreed.
At this time, the old monk stood up.
"I booked a cooking booth to invite Master Jason to dinner, and the two of you can travel together."
The old monk of Tongshou Temple said.
Immediately, Urashima's expression changed.
He stepped back while fumbling for the wallet in his pocket.
"Master doesn't need it."
"I have something to do tonight."
"Go back first."
As he spoke, he winked at his boss Ryosuke.
When seeing Ryosuke sitting there calmly, Urashima understood in the blink of an eye.
Ryosuke has no money.
Of course there is no need to worry.
But he is different!
Clutching his thin wallet, Urashima ran away like flying.
The old monk blinked, a little puzzled.
But before the old monk came back to his senses, Jason had already walked outside.
Ryosuke followed closely behind.
Hui Lijing, who made several phone calls, was in charge of driving.
Perhaps because of the news of her sister, Hui Lijing seemed very excited.
"Set off!"
The female detective yelled like a child, but before the car started, a few strong men in black suits ran over from a distance and surrounded the car tightly.
The one in the lead even knocked on the car window, saying—
"get off."
