"What went wrong?"

Qin Ran leaned on the desk and thought carefully.

Qin Ran was not surprised that there was a problem with Modin's statue. In fact, after the change in [Sigh of Hell], Kieran became quite vigilant about Modin's statue.

It is precisely because of this that he stopped devouring the power in it.

And with the appearance of the torturers from the Pope's period and those members of the Remnant Council, Kieran, who had seen a trace of the historical truth, did not weaken his vigilance towards the statue of Modin, and even became more suspicious.

Those who can survive in that chaotic era and make such statues are absolutely impossible to be weak in terms of strength.

So…

What is the SOS on the base of the statue

Is it a trap with ulterior motives

Or a real call for help

Qin Ran didn't know.

He only knew that when he came into contact with the so-called 'dark gold' power, there was a slight change in Modin's statue, which was so slight that it was difficult to detect even if it was close at hand.

If it wasn't for his perception approaching the second level, and his spirit reaching the real fifth level, it would be difficult for him to notice this change.

However, since he found out, Kieran was naturally prepared.

Therefore, he was not surprised that he appeared in 'Hell'.

only…

The identity of the psychiatrist in front of him and the consultation room made him somewhat unable to do so.

Sensing that the power in his body is not the slightest bit stagnant, all the props are available, and there is no prompt from the system, Kieran frowned.

But then, he looked at the insomniac in astonishment who was sleeping on the sofa.

A trace of pure power is slowly flowing into his body.

It is a kind of power that is similar to 'dark gold', but it can be absorbed without the need for 'gluttony' transformation.

Of course, according to Qin Ran's character, he would never be so careless.

With an order, 'Gluttony' pounced on it, and began to chew and swallow the trace of pure power.

This trace of pure power is not much.

But it is also worth the amount of an ordinary bento in the dungeon world of [Food Zhiyi].

Feeling the slight increase of the five kinds of "source power" in his body, Kieran looked at the sleeping patient with a touch of playfulness.

Power cannot be created out of thin air.

There must be a process of absorption and transformation.

Even an ascetic monk needs to beat his will and spirit like forging to generate a little bit of strength.

But what about the insomniac in front of him

Ordinary people!

Whether it's the lack of exercised muscles on the body, or the circulation without any breath in the body, it all shows the identity of the other party.

However, it is such an opponent who has a trace of pure power.

"Unknown?"

Qin Ran was talking to himself from the bottom of his heart.

The unknown represents a crisis.

Crisis can cause fear.

But as long as the fear is defeated, it will be an opportunity.

Qin Ran checked the insomniac in front of him in a more detailed way, and after reconfirming that the other person was an ordinary person, he walked towards the window.

Pushing open the window, without the obstruction of the glass, the morning sun rushes in with the breeze.

Warm and cozy.

The windows are located on the second floor, and there is a small courtyard downstairs.

From Kieran's point of view, there are three tall palm trees in a row on the left, and the one in the middle has already surpassed the window on the second floor. If you want to see the crown of the tree clearly, you need to lean out to get a glimpse.

On the right side is the grape trellis, with luxuriant foliage, lush greenery and vitality, making people sitting on the stone benches in the gazebo feel comfortable involuntarily.

A path paved with white cobblestones connects the gate and the building where Qin Ran is located.

The gate is a bronze-style door leaf, and the gap between each fence can reach a fist, but it will not really cause unnecessary trouble for the owner, and it looks beautiful and safe.

Looking beyond the door, you can see a quiet community.

The houses are well arranged, and there are pedestrians walking with their pet dogs.

Qin Ran stretched out his hand and touched the window sill polished by marble. The touch in his hand told him that all of this was true.

And the powerful perception also told him that what he saw was real.

"Another world?"

Qin Ran secretly guessed.

But he didn't rashly start to detect the true and false.

Although he has become an advanced user, Kieran has not forgotten the role of identity when he was still a rookie every time he went to a new dungeon world.

Not just convenience, but safety too.

Therefore, Qin Ran knows very well what to do if you already have a reasonable identity in a strange and unknown place.

Don't do things that don't match your identity.

At least, recklessness doesn't do any good until you learn the truth about the world.

So, when he saw that the drowsy insomniac seemed to be waking up, Kieran stepped forward and made another blow.

Snapped!

After the crisp sound, the insomniac fell asleep again.

This time there was no more power.

"Only once?"

Qin Ran sighed in disappointment and walked out of the office.

Outside the office, it looks like a home.

A carpet with contrasting colors of blue and white covers the entire corridor, and opposite is a semi-enclosed balcony with a metal frame and glass as a screen, a small white round table and three chairs of the same color, on the table There was an ashtray with no cigarette butts in it.

Sitting here and looking at it is much more spacious than looking from the window, and the whole community is almost all income.

Obviously, this should be a place for people to wait.

It is enough to show that his business in this capacity is very good.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to see a family psychological clinic in a place that looks like a high-end community.

Qin Ran walked on the soft blanket, turned his head and looked to the other side, there were stairs leading to the first and third floors respectively.

According to the layout of the house in front of him, the first floor should be the reception, and the third floor should be his personal accommodation.

Without going downstairs, Qin Ran walked towards the third floor.

Now he desperately needs to know more about his identity.

The stairs are made of solid wood and painted with a layer of dark red paint. When walking on them, there is a sense of solidity.

After turning a corner, we went up to the third floor.

A boxy floor mat appeared in front of my eyes, next to it were hangers and shoe racks, with clothes and shoes on them.

Undoubtedly, although he opened a family-type psychological clinic with his identity, he completely separated the work and living areas.

Qin Ran changed into his slippers according to the habits of his identity, and pushed open the door in front of him.

As always, neat and simple.

A single bed, bookshelf, computer desk, and a toilet.

Other than that, there is nothing, the walls are clean and white.

Without the slightest disappointment, Qin Ran glanced at the computer, and then began to search the computer desk and bookshelf.

People always hide some secrets.

Familiar places make them feel safe.

Therefore, these secrets must be placed within easy reach, but in places that are difficult for others to touch.

The computer has a network cable, which is obviously not suitable.

Computer desks and bookshelves are much more suitable.

And soon, Kieran made a discovery.

In one of the most frequently flipped books on the shelf, he found a small half of the photo

The figure above is 'he' with a big smile.

The remaining half was cut off.

There is no text behind the photo either.

However, judging from the posture of 'him' in the photo, it should be arm in arm.

Qin Ran frowned.

And judging from this posture and the result of photo processing, this identity should be a heterosexual or something.

This is not good news for Qin Ran.

But fortunately, the two parties clearly broke up.

It's worth celebrating!

Qin Ran breathed a sigh of relief. After putting the photo back, he began to look at the books in front of him.

Most of them are psychological books, and the rest are miscellaneous books. It will obviously take a lot of time to check thoroughly.

And downstairs, there was another patient waiting for him.

Turning around and going downstairs, Qin Ran returned to the office.

When the patient showed signs of waking up again, Kieran struck again.

Qin Ran controlled his strength very well.

It can make the other party sleepy without causing real damage to the other party.

After that, I made another hand knife, and the time came to noon.

Qin Ran heard the little nurse's footsteps.

Boom, boom, boom.

"Come in."

Amidst the significantly lower knock on the door, after obtaining Qin Ran's permission, the little nurse who walked in looked at the sleeping insomniac with admiration in her eyes.

As expected, he is indeed the winner of the Feron Psychology Award!

"The doctor's consultation will be over soon."

"He is the only patient you have an appointment for today, you can rest in the afternoon."

"Also, I have two newly released "The Emerald Tower" movie here, do you want to go with me..."

The little nurse stammered.

"Do you have popcorn and a snack platter?"

Qin Ran asked subconsciously.

"No, those calories are too high, and I've been losing weight recently."

The little nurse also subconsciously shook her head.

"No more."

"I'm a little tired today."

"I want to rest in the afternoon."

Qin Ran simply rejected the little nurse's invitation.

Just by hearing the name, the movie must be extremely boring, and he didn't want to waste time on it.

"OK."

The little nurse nodded disappointedly, but she did not forget her duty and began to wake up the insomniac in the sofa.

"hiss!"

"Why do I feel a little pain in my neck."

The awakened insomniac clutched his neck and groaned as soon as he woke up.

"It should be a stiff neck."

"You're familiar with your own pillow, and you're not used to my pillow here, so just go for a hot compress."

"how do you feel?"

After Qin Ran finished explaining seriously, he asked about the results of the treatment.

"great!"

"I haven't thought about such a good rest for several days!"

"Thank you so much!"

"You are worthy of being the winner of the Foon Award. I have consulted several psychiatrists before, but they are completely useless. They only let me take sleeping pills."

Insomniacs raved about it.

And this kind of praise made the little nurse at the side look at Qin Ran even more differently.

Sure enough, I was rejected because I was still a little fat!

Go on a diet and lose five pounds!

I was able to achieve the perfect weight!

When the time comes, invite the doctor again!

He will definitely say yes!

The little nurse who silently made up her mind took the patient to the first floor to pay and make medical records.

During the whole process, Qin Ran didn't say a word.

For things he didn't understand, Qin Ran was habitually silent.

Seeing more is better than talking too much.

Soon, under Qin Ran's gaze, the little nurse finished everything, and the insomniac patient thanked her again and left the clinic.

Then, the little nurse also got off work.

"Doctor, I'm going first."

"If you can, please order less takeaway."

"Too much fat is not healthy."

"You should choose inedia once in a while, it will be good for your body."

Before leaving, the little nurse reminded Qin Ran out of kindness.

"Um."

Qin Ran nodded, and the moment the door closed, he picked up the takeaway leaflet that was placed at the reception on the first floor.

It is different from ordinary takeaway leaflets that only have a phone number and a few food pictures.

This takeaway leaflet clearly states that it provides different customized meals every day, but it only serves the community, and it is destined to mark the freshest ingredients and the chef's door-to-door service.

Picking up the phone, Qin Ran dialed it directly.

"Hi, Love Food House is here to serve you."

"Today's customized meals are imperial salad, roast rabbit meat, goulash, crucian carp soup, and the staple food can choose white bread and grilled corn tortillas."

"What do you need?"

asked the operator with a sweet voice on the receiver.

"I need five complete meals."

Qin Ran said.

"We can give away fried chicken, French fries, and Coke for every meal. Do you want it?"

The operator added.

"Okay, I want each."

"My address is 2-1-6."

Qin Ran reported the address.

"Ten minutes later, I will serve you at your door."

The operator promised so.

In fact, five minutes later, someone rang the doorbell.

A tall, slender woman in a white chef's attire walked in with a pretty face.

"Hello, Doctor 2567."

"I'm Nora, the chef of Love Restaurant."

"Are you throwing a party?"

"We have professional bartenders."

The other party is obviously very familiar with the entire community and knows who lives in 2-1-6.

"No."

"Myself."

"That clearing is yours to use."

Qin Ran shook his head and pointed to the open space in the yard.

"one person?"

The other party was taken aback for a moment, but the professionalism prevented the other party from asking any more questions, and began to direct the helper to carry down the portions of food.

Fruits and vegetables are extremely fresh as advertised.

The rabbit meat is marinated in advance, the whole piece of beef is red and white, like marble, and the crucian carp is alive and kicking.

As for the free fried chicken, French fries, and Coke

The former are served warm, while the latter are served cold and delicious.

One bite, the fried chicken and French fries are crispy, and the cola is sweet, it's really delicious.

Qin Ran sat on the edge of the gazebo of the grape rack with fried chicken, French fries, and Coke in his arms, watching the other party process the ingredients while eating.

Good knife work.

Skilled.

The fire was set up.

The whole rabbit was put up.

Blanch the beef.

Put the crucian carp into the warm water basin to spit sand.

Although it is only a person, it is more than capable.

Is a qualified chef.

With Kieran's eyes, it was easy to distinguish the opponent's level.

Compared with mimosa, there is definitely no comparison.

But compared with other ordinary chefs, it is much more than that.

No wonder he dares to be a door-to-door chef.

Soon, the aroma of food wafted away.

At this moment, the phone rang from the room.

Jingle Bell.

The sudden sound interrupted Qin Ran who was immersed in the aroma of food and enjoying the beauty.

He frowned, stood up, and walked into the room.

"Excuse me, is Mr. 2567?"

As soon as he picked up the microphone, a stern voice came from inside.

"yes."

Qin Ran replied.

After getting confirmation, that stern voice continued to speak.

"I regret to inform you that the body of your ex-wife has just been found in her apartment."

"ha?"
