There was no sunshine in Eikend in the morning, and the low-pressure dark clouds made it almost impossible to breathe. There was no wind in the entire urban area, and it was hot and oppressive.
"Good morning, listeners, this is Eikend Morning News."
"Yesterday Eikend was attacked by super criminals again, but our 'Fist of Justice' and 'Gluttony King' once again crushed their conspiracy. There is no doubt that these two superheroes are simply symbols of our city... "
"Finally, I will report the weather in Aikend today. The maximum temperature is 30 and the minimum temperature is 19. According to the monitoring of meteorological experts, Aikend will attract heavy rain today. Everyone who travels, please bring your rain gear and take precautions. measure."
"I'm Selena, see you tomorrow."
The sweet voice ended from the studio, and Selena stretched out in her seat.
Meow!
sleepy.
so tired.
I really want to eat small dried fish meow.
Selena curled up in the chair and closed her eyes.
She needs to rest for a while, but the colored contact lenses make the rest very unpleasant, but she can't take off the contact lenses to reveal the cat's eyes.
After all, no one here knows her other identity: Catwoman.
Everyone only knows that she is a well-known morning news anchor who lives alone and likes to keep cats and so on.
This is the official job that Dresden arranged for her after inquiry.
Although she didn't like it very much at first.
As for now
Still don't like it very much.
She prefers to lie carefree on a bed covered with banknotes, with dried fish in her mouth, watching the latest idol drama, and spend the day perfectly.
but…
She needs to live!
To live, you need money.
Even with the League of Legends subsidy, how can this little money be enough to satisfy my empty heart
I can no longer do the original petty theft.
Therefore, the only way out is to work.
The only good news is that, arranged by Dresden, her salary is very generous, which can basically fill the empty heart.
Thinking of the sacred object to fill the emptiness in her heart, Catwoman stood up directly from her chair.
Tiredness also seemed to disappear, and she walked directly outside.
"Selena? Selena?"
"Today was also very good."
"See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
Selena greeted the people around with a gentle and polite smile, quickly left the radio station, took a taxi and drove quickly towards the busiest pedestrian street in Aikend.
At the entrance of the pedestrian street, Catwoman paid to get off the car and walked quickly to her destination.
There is a specialty store.
A shop specializing in all kinds of bags.
In the window, a dazzling array of bags bloomed with strange brilliance under the spotlights.
Just like Catwoman's shining eyes at this moment.
However, the specialty store that has not yet opened temporarily blocked Catwoman.
Leaning against the pillar at the door, Catwoman waited patiently.
Rumble!
There were bursts of thunder, and then the windless city of Aikend began to blow strong winds. Just a few minutes later, the torrential rain poured down.
Just like cats hate water, catwoman also hates water except drinking water and bath water.
Bean-sized raindrops fell on her body, making her body shake uncomfortably.
Estimating that before the specialty store opened, she would be drenched in water, so Catwoman immediately ran to the side.
Catwoman is very familiar with this pedestrian street.
Familiar to the extent that all shops are familiar.
Therefore, she did not go to the cafe that most people would choose. Although it is very conspicuous, the coffee is terrible and the food is mediocre.
She chose the restaurant hidden in the back alley of the pedestrian street.
It's hard to find here.
Basically need a friend to bring.
Thinking of the storm outside, I stayed in the restaurant, eating delicious eel rice, and quietly waiting for the opening of the treasure house.
A strange beauty filled Catwoman's heart.
It made her smile unconsciously.
jingle!
With the sound of the wind chimes opening the door, Catwoman entered the restaurant without a signboard.
"Boss, eel rice..."
"Well!"
"Why are you here?!"
Catwoman shouted habitually, but as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she saw the only customer in the restaurant: Qin Ran, and the dinner plates piled up on the dining table in front of Qin Ran, divided into three stacks, almost reaching the ceiling.
In an instant, Catwoman thought of what happened yesterday.
She was thrown out.
twice!
It was still when she was preparing to try her best to please the other party!
shame!
What a shame!
Immediately, Catwoman's good mood turned sour, and her complexion became sour.
And then, the boss's words made Catwoman's face even more ugly.
"I'm sorry Selena, all the food today was eaten by this gentleman."
The middle-aged proprietress looked at Catwoman apologetically.
Catwoman suppressed the hunger in her belly and the sadness in her heart, nodded, walked towards Qin Ran, and sat directly opposite him.
Kieran, who was immersed in the food, ignored Catwoman at all.
He is still experiencing the eel rice here.
The fish meat is soft and tender, especially near the skin. The fish oil is combined with the special sauce in the restaurant, which not only completely hides the fishy smell of the eel, but also makes it slightly sweet, but not greasy. , did not cover up the taste of the eel itself, it is really amazing.
Of course, rice is also worth mentioning.
Good rice is spread under the eel, and when the sauce is poured on the eel, the oil of the eel naturally blends into the rice.
Make rice with plump grains more delicious.
After dinner, it will make people eat two more servings unconsciously.
Ordinary people are like this.
What's more, it was Qin Ran who came here specifically to look for delicious food.
Qin Ran ate all the eel rice in the restaurant. He took a sip of the free barley tea from the boss and looked at Catwoman.
"You know this place too?"
Qin Ran asked like this.
"I should be the one asking you this question, right?"
"How do you know about this store?"
The catwoman who was in a bad mood asked back.
"Willis told me."
Kieran didn't hide anything, and Catwoman immediately wrote Willis' name in a small notebook in her heart.
Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
Catwoman takes revenge, morning till night.
"The taste here is really good, and the barley tea sent by the proprietress is also delicious."
Qin Ran picked up his teacup while talking, and looked at the pouring rain outside the window.
The rain falls along the roof and eaves, forming a series of water droplets, and the moisture on the glass makes people sitting in the house look a little more hazy when looking outside, but because of this hazy, Let the people in the house look more leisurely and at ease.
Catwoman looked at the cozy Qin Ran, and couldn't help showing her hidden paws.
If she didn't know that she couldn't beat Qin Ran, and that Qin Ran wouldn't show mercy to her, she must let Qin Ran know how powerful she is.
Feeling depressed, Catwoman climbed directly on the table.
With her forehead on the table, Catwoman felt that this morning was really terrible.
To meet such a leisurely 'gluttony king' in the morning.
Um
laid back
wrong!
I just experienced that kind of battle yesterday, how could the opponent appear here so leisurely
Just to eat an eel rice
impossible!
There must be something!
Suddenly, Catwoman thought of something and sat up.
She began to look around carefully and with lingering fear.
Although yesterday's battle appeared very suddenly, the danger in it is self-evident, and the slightest carelessness can lead to the rhythm of group destruction.
Even if it is as sensitive as her, it is useless.
After all, no one knows what kind of ability you are facing.
The best way to deal with it is to detect threats in advance.
But she was very familiar with this place, and after looking around, she didn't find anything wrong at all.
Could it be...
I have entered the illusion
If it's an illusion, he's an illusion, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to scratch him, right
When this idea came up, Catwoman couldn't bear it anymore.
Even become eager to try.
She narrowed her eyes and stared at Qin Ran, then suddenly raised her hand and scratched towards Qin Ran.
Snapped!
boom!
The palm was opened, the back of the neck was grabbed again, the whole person flew out again, and fell heavily on the door.
"Selena, are you okay?"
The proprietress, who was washing dishes in the back kitchen, ran out immediately when she heard the sound, and asked concerned immediately when she saw the catwoman who had fallen to the ground.
"No, nothing."
Rubbing her red palms, Catwoman forced a smile to the proprietress.
And in the heart
Catwoman almost cried.
She can be sure that this is not an illusion.
The way and force that Qin Ran threw her just now were exactly the same as in his memory.
No matter how realistic the illusion is, it is impossible to do this.
Rubbing her palms, Catwoman sat back in the chair, facing Qin Ran as if she was treating a psychopath, Catwoman thought she needed to explain.
"I thought it was an illusion, so I tried it."
"Because, I don't think you'd be so leisurely as to come here for an eel meal."
"Especially in the morning."
"So... wait!"
"You're not here to wait for me, are you?"
Catwoman thought of something while talking, then looked at Qin Ran suspiciously, and made a guess on her own.
"You had a good harvest in yesterday's battle."
"Although the two magic items have been damaged, they still have a considerable price."
"Of course, the premise is that you must find a suitable buyer. Among your companions, Fries is the most suitable person to find a buyer."
"However, Fries is helping you find precious books from the Pope's time, and there should be no time to help you with this."
"And among the people you know, I, who have been in contact with many hidden bazaars, become the most suitable candidate."
"So, you are entrusting me to help you find a buyer, right?"
Although it was still a question sentence, Catwoman's tone was extremely affirmative.
She folded her arms and held her head up, as if I had seen all the truth clearly.
And in the bottom of her heart, she was even more prepared to use this opportunity to make things difficult for Qin Ran who had begged her.
Cats are cautious.
bring it on!
bring it on!
Hurry up and beg me!
I will try my best to reject you!
Of course, if you beg me again and again...
I will still reject you!
Thinking of the look on Qin Ran's face at that time, Catwoman almost laughed out loud.
"Bill, please."
But when Catwoman was imagining that beautiful scene, Kieran yelled directly at the proprietress, and then, under Catwoman's astonished gaze, paid the bill and moved a table with a teacup.
What's the meaning
Am I wrong
besides…
Does he dislike me
Catwoman watched Kieran's movements, her eyes widened in disbelief.
But Qin Ran didn't pay attention to it at all. He held his teacup, watched the heavy rain falling, and thought about his plan slightly, trying to make up for possible loopholes in it as much as possible.
As for Catwoman
For such an unpredictable creature like a cat, Kieran would not bother to guess.
It was as if he really chose to come here in the morning because he heard that the eel rice here was good, and he had to queue up at noon.
Of course, another reason was that the busy Frith couldn't provide him with breakfast.
As for takeout
If possible, Qin Ran prefers to taste the freshly cooked food.
Because, only at that time the food is the most delicious.
Time passed by every minute and every second.
Catwoman seemed to have lost all her strength and crawled on the table, looking at Qin Ran with blank eyes.
And the rain outside is getting bigger and bigger.
There was no intention of stopping at all.
About half an hour later, Kieran stood up.
His time is limited, there is no way to wait any longer.
Seeing Qin Ran standing up, Catwoman's eyes lit up, which was originally dull.
Can't wait
You have to deal with all kinds of troublesome things, right
How is it possible that you have so much leisure time
With the joy of a real leisurely person in her heart, Catwoman stood up with a smirk on her face.
"It's raining so much, do you want to leave?"
"It will definitely get wet!"
"Look at the water on the ground, your shoes will be soaked!"
Catwoman came over and said with concern.
"Won't."
Qin Ran said lightly.
"Why not?"
"Such a heavy rain..."
Roll, roll!
Before Catwoman could finish her words, there was a sound of wheels rolling over the road. Catwoman opened her mouth wide and looked at the black carriage that suddenly appeared in front of the restaurant.
The two strong horses, and the simple decoration, but the luxury carriage can be felt just by looking at it with the naked eye, which attracted the attention of all the people running past in the rain.
Naturally, Catwoman is also included.
"Horse, carriage?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"There are still carriages in this era?"
Catwoman stammered.
But this did not hinder the actions of the coachman in the raincoat at all.
The other party came to the door of the restaurant with an umbrella and opened the door of the restaurant.
"My lord, White Jack is at your service."
The skeleton in a raincoat bowed slightly because he was holding an umbrella.
"Nice color."
Qin Ran said.
"As long as you like it."
Bai Jack, who was wearing a black raincoat, jumped for joy.
Sure enough, you guessed it, adults like black.
It's worth the effort it took.
Of course, such thoughts are not limited to changing the colors of carriages and horses.
White Jack waved his hand.
A pure black blanket appeared between the carriage and the restaurant. A little water was completely covered by the blanket. When Qin Ran stepped on the blanket, his shoes didn't get any water stains or stains.
After opening the compartment, a warm breath rushed over.
A black clay pot steamed from a small tandoor.
The rich tea fragrance instantly dispelled the coldness in the rainstorm.
Qin Ran stepped into the carriage and sat down.
And it wasn't until this time that Catwoman recovered from the shock.
"Can, can you give me a ride?"
Catwoman put her hands together on her chest, trying to make herself look pitiful.
Qin Ran shook his head without thinking.
"cannot."
boom!
The words fell, the door closed, Jack Bai shook the reins, and the carriage quickly disappeared into the rain, leaving Catwoman standing there alone in a daze.
When the wind blows, it rains.
More and more miserable.
"I am the strong Meow!"
"I am okay!"
"I can still buy bags!"
"Bao, cure all diseases!"
"Bao, relieve your worries!"
Catwoman clenched her fists vigorously, and just as she was about to ask the proprietress to borrow an umbrella and go to the specialty store, there was a burst of sound from the loudspeaker on the pedestrian street in the distance.
"Dear customers, I am sorry to inform you that due to the heavy rain, the pedestrian street is temporarily closed."
"Thank you for your understanding for the inconvenience caused to you, and I apologize to you again."
The sound echoed and reached Catwoman's ears.
thump.
Catwoman lost her soul and knelt down at the door of the restaurant.
