Chapter 73 The Dream of Salted Fish Must Be the Saltiest!

Dinner is the best of the three meals a day.

A tiring day, dragging a tired body to sit at the dining table, that is the reward of the day.

It is also the time of day that belongs to you most.

Pick up the noodles with chopsticks.

Knife and fork fiddle with beef.

In the sound of sucking, in the sound of cutting, there will be the sound of swallowing soup.

Cozy.

People unconsciously want this time to be longer.

So, supper appeared.

It just got tastier.

It's not just the food itself, it's a manifestation of the increased free time at your disposal.

Therefore, even a bowl of instant noodles was delicious at that time.

Of course, it would be better if you add an egg, a ham, and a dried flower.

If the dried flowers are brined, the taste will be even better.

Cumin flavor is also recommended, but the soup of instant noodles needs to be hot enough. When soaking it, cumin is incorporated into the instant noodle soup, and after the dried tofu becomes soft and glutinous, there will be a taste of meat.

Very comfortable.

But the most comfortable is: snacks.

Snacks after dinner and supper.

It is not the traditional sense of "giving charcoal in the snow", it is more like "icing on the cake", but only those who really understand it can understand the importance of "additional meals".

That is 'giving charcoal in the snow' and 'icing on the cake'.

The slightly hungry stomach is satisfied again, which is the charcoal in the snow.

And the food I ate before was icing on the cake after a burp.

It allows the two to coexist.

Let the two be indistinguishable from each other.

This is a very good mood.

Jason is like that at the moment.

He parked the car, took the two boxes for compensation from the Street of Memories, and walked briskly towards the fortress, pausing slightly every few steps, and using the [Kayafa Seal] once.

It's not a restraint trap, but a warning trap.

There are sufficient security facilities around the 'fortress'.

John, Bryan, and McCall set up enough surveillance probes.

But that didn't stop Jason from setting up a little more.

As one of the residents of the "fortress", he thinks this is what he should do.

At this moment, the moon has already passed the highest point in the night sky.

Under the bright moonlight, the [Kayafa Seal] appeared silently everywhere in the 'fortress'.

Although it only lasted 5 hours, it was enough.

"It would be nice to have a few good hounds."

After using the [Kayafa Seal] at will, and placing it in a remote place on the side of the 'fort', Jason couldn't help thinking.

Excellent hunting dogs, more reliable than people.

Especially at night, that kind of reliable even more than the machine.

Gently walked into the 'fortress' and waved at John, who was on duty at night.

"John."

Jason greeted.

"everything is normal."

John, who was standing in the shadows, answered.

Daisy, who was crawling at John's feet, shrank her head and tried her best to hide her body.

Jason smiled and walked towards the underground room.

Not only all kinds of machines, but also manual night duty is necessary.

This is the habit of John, Brian, and McCall.

Every night, the three people will be assigned according to the schedule.

In this regard, Jason has no objection.

He wouldn't even mind joining it if he could.

Not tonight, though.

Walking into his room, Jason locked the door and raised his hand again with the [Kayafa Seal].

He hung his coat on the hanger behind the door and walked straight to the desk.

Although he lives here in a small suite, there is no independent restaurant that can hold the two 'food' in his hands.

Therefore, the study desk has become the best choice.

After putting the two 'food' in place, Jason almost couldn't wait to open the box.

Jason had checked the box more than once before, and he could confirm that there was nothing wrong with it.

And with the opening of the box, the 'food' inside also revealed its original appearance.

One is a ring.

One is a button.

The ring has something special in this world a hundred years ago. The silver setting is simple, but the ruby ​​is extremely dazzling. Under the light, it flashes with a stream of brilliance.

The buttons are made of gold, the front is smooth, but the back is full of intricate branding.

"The flame ring can continuously spray high-temperature flames, and can also shoot 10 fireballs in a row. When the brilliance of the gem disappears, the gem needs to be replaced and charged."

"The force field button, when encountering danger, creates a force field that can withstand three explosions. It cannot be recharged. After three times, it will be directly damaged."

Next to the two 'foods', there is a detailed description of the 'food' itself and a graphic repetition of its activation.

It can be seen that the "Street of Memories" is carefully matched.

One offense and one defense, with close cooperation, it is a pretty good combination.

For Jason, though, it's just food.

flame?

Jason's expert-level [Charles Burning Technique] is enough to do everything.

And defense?

Jason's continuous fusion and upgrade of the body forging technique has already made himself a chariot-level defense. Although the weak point still exists, and he is not immune to the fatal key, it is much stronger than the [Force Field Button].

So, now Jason is paying more attention to...

smell!

He picked up the [Flame Ring] first.

The ruby ​​is smooth and sweet in the mouth, a bit like a red velvet cake, while the ring setting is crunchy and delicious, full of the unique aroma of cashew nuts.

The taste of [Stand Button] is much simpler.

chocolate!

It's the kind of dark chocolate that's at least 75%.

Bitter, mellow.

But not hard to swallow.

The mellow fragrance filled his mouth, and Jason narrowed his eyes slightly.

The text is constantly beating—

【Devouring the flame ring! 】

[Physical strength, energy, and injuries have been greatly restored! 】

[Satisfaction +18]

[Satisfaction: 85]

...

【Swallow Force Field Buttons! 】

[Physical strength, energy, and injuries have been greatly restored! 】

[Satisfaction +22]

[Satisfaction: 107]

...

Satiety is over 100 again.

This made Jason slightly relieved.

Although 35.6 lives did not completely reassure Jason, who was used to having 100 lives, it was much higher than before. At least, he now had a lot more choices.

"We will see the release of the new book later!"

Jason thought silently in his heart, and the whole person couldn't help being a little excited.

As a writer, this is his first new book.

Will there be new book sales?

Will there be a press conference?

Jason thought about it as he picked up the blanket, put it over him, and fell asleep in his chair.

Why not go to the waterbed?

The bed is too comfortable.

In the event of any unexpected event, the person who wakes up in bed will hesitate.

Jason is no exception.

And the chair won't!

With Jason's physique more than 5 times that of ordinary people, the chair is really a pretty good choice.

The moon sets, the sun rises.

At dawn, the unlocking of the [Dawn Sword] power in Jason's body made him wake up instantly.

Standing up and moving his body, Jason waited quietly.

This wait did not take long, the phone rang.

jingle!

After the phone rang twice, Jason answered.

"Hello, Jason?"

"Well, it's me!"

After the voice of the editor LaVine came from the receiver, Jason gave a positive answer.

"Today is the day your new book goes on sale, and various channels have already stocked it in advance..."

Speaking of this, the editor's voice paused before continuing: "Did you do something in Cherry City? The demand there is almost the sum of other places!"

Does 'propaganda' work?

Jason thought in his heart, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

At this time, Jason was truly relieved.

In the face of Jason, who can deal with anything calmly, this time the [main quest] is really in the dark.

This is not a battle in the true sense, let alone facing an enemy, but an 'integration mission' involving all aspects: at least 100,000 new books must be sold within 120 days (must be purchased voluntarily by others, and one person only counts as one Book).

Such a task informs Jason what he should do.

It's not just about having a 'new book'.

Positive prestige is also required.

After all, these are the universal values ​​of ordinary people.

Ordinary people are what he needs to care about.

It is also the key to task completion.

Fortunately, he was lucky.

The current situation is really good for him.

Of course, he didn't mind a little better.

"Will LaVine have a new book sale?"

Jason asked.

"New book sale?"

"What are you thinking, Jason?"

"You're a third-rate writer who's dying, how could you have a new book for sale?"

"Don't think about it!"

"Although your book is well written, it's still too early to sign it!"

"Only a truly first-rate writer is likely to have this kind of treatment."

The editor's voice involuntarily raised several centimeters.

Then, after admonishing Jason again, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

Through the receiver, Jason could clearly hear the busy voice of the editorial department over there.

It is impossible for the entire editorial department to have only one book from him, and countless books together have created such a busy scene.

As for staying up all night?

normal operation.

No signing, no signing.

Mission first!

Putting down the phone, Jason sighed, turned and walked towards the hall on the ground.

"Morning, Jason."

"Breakfast is sandwiches and milk."

"Your share is there."

Brian, the chef again, pointed to 20 sandwiches on a plate not far away.

"Thanks, Brian."

Jason smiled and sat down to the side of the table with his plate.

Soon, John and McCall appeared in the restaurant.

And two girls?

It seems that the biological clock is completely different from the four people. Normally, it takes about 10 o'clock. If it is a little later, it takes about 12-13 o'clock to wake up.

"Brian, you should get Kemi up early and exercise."

McCall said this after picking up his breakfast.

"This..., you know, my relationship with Kemi has just eased up."

Brian, the old father, showed a helpless smile.

"Why don't you let Teri get up early with Kemi?"

"The relationship between the two of them is very good. As long as one person acts, the other person will follow."

The middle-aged father asked McCall.

"Terry?"

"She will listen to what I say."

"However, I'm a little afraid to say."

McCall sighed immediately.

"She treated me like a father figure."

"But……"

"I'm totally unprepared."

"I don't know if accepting Teri will affect her."

"After all, my profession has made me many enemies."

McCall also gave a wry smile.

The two middle-aged men looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

John on the side was stroking the top of Daisy's head, with a slight smile, without saying anything.

For John, family is Daisy.

And communicating with Daisy doesn't have to be that troublesome at all.

You are good to it, and it will be good to you.

And people?

There are too many things.

Even two very good people will have too many estrangements due to various misunderstandings.

As for being honest?

Human beings, the greatest difficulty is honesty.

Not embarrassed.

Nor is it selfish.

It is a habit of self-preservation.

Fear of being hurt.

An apprehensive choice.

While it often backfires, people tend to choose that the next time something similar happens.

Of course, it is also possible to confess everything in a split second.

Everyone has that urge.

People put that impulse with a very beautiful name: love.

It is not immutable.

It will change over time.

Possibly it becomes a love affair.

It could also turn into... hate.

Hate because of love.

Therefore, people only have a momentary opportunity, and this moment is the only opportunity in a person's life.

missed.

Then really missed it.

Jason naturally doesn't have such deep feelings. For a person who loves food, unless it is in a bun shop, a girl handed him the bun he just bought.

Otherwise, he is always thinking rationally.

Or ponder more esoteric questions—

Are pork and green onions delicious? Or is it delicious with mutton and radish?

In fact, spicy beef can also be.

If there is egg soup, be sure to add an extra egg.

Eating Brian's breakfast, Jason, like John, did not participate in the conversation between Brian and McCall.

However, his eyes turned to the corridor.

Kemi and Teri appeared there.

Not wearing pajamas, but formal clothes, the appearance of going out.

"Morning, dear!"

"Come on, have breakfast!"

Brian smiled and looked at his daughter.

"No, Dad!"

"I'll just bring a sandwich!"

Kemi nodded at John, McCall, and Jason, picked up two sandwiches, and walked out while eating.

"Where are you going? I'll take you!"

Brian shouted.

"No, Dad."

"I'll drive with Terri."

With such words, Kemi and Terry trotted out.

The four men in the house looked at each other, not knowing what the two girls were going to do.

At the same time, Cortana quickly left the base.

In the 'food and wine pavilion', Emily was woken up by the pulsator who had been studying all night, and the two quickly washed up.

In ‘Bronze Unyielding’, a group of muscular men even left the camp in an orderly manner under the leadership of the old instructor.

Many members of 'Golden Wind' also gathered in the streets.

Members of the "Street of Memories" in ancient costumes were also mixed in.

And these people are heading towards a place in Cherry City.

There is--

bookstore!
