The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1383 Knife Boss

After the sound was clearly heard by everyone outside the cold house, Eckerd was a little surprised, but he didn't show any dissatisfaction.

"One of the rules of the cold house: Picky guests."

"Mr. Knife will only make food for the guests he approves."

"As for the others?"

Eckerd shrugged.

Although the words were not finished, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

"2567, I'll wait for you outside the bamboo forest."

"Although we didn't eat the food made by Mr. Knife, the snacks baked here are also very good."

After saying that, Eckerd motioned to Qin Ran, and then led the rest of the people towards the outside of the bamboo forest, looking familiar.

The people around, naturally no one would refute Eckerd, and they all followed.

The makeup artist slowed down. Go last.

"Remember to taste carefully, come back and tell me what you ate and how it tasted."

The makeup artist lowered her voice and said to Qin Ran.

For food, makeup artists are very fond of.

The makeup artist will feel extremely lucky to be able to eat real delicious food, so he is looking forward to it as soon as he enters here.

Unfortunately, he couldn't get in.

Of course, given the personality of a makeup artist, it is a bit regretful, but not dissatisfied.

After taking another longing look at Hanwu, the makeup artist waved to Kieran and trotted after Eckerd and his party.

Qin Ran watched silently as Eckerd and his entourage left, then turned around and walked straight towards the cold house.

There was a stone step about two meters long and half a meter wide in front of the cold house. After Qin Ran climbed up the stone steps, he heard the sound of footsteps.

Another female waiter appeared in front of Kieran holding a pair of loose cloth shoes.

"Please change your shoes."

The waiter bowed and then bent down holding the shoes.

Obviously, the other party wanted to change Qin Ran's shoes.

"I will do it myself."

After Qin Ran finished speaking calmly, he reached out and took the other person's cloth shoes and put them on his feet.

It wasn't that he wasn't used to this kind of service, but it was just that Kieran didn't want to get caught up in the other person's rhythm. Therefore, after putting on his shoes, he entered the cold room.

The wooden floor is solid and clear.

The open windows let in the gentle night breeze, dispelling the scorching heat of midsummer.

Oil lamps are neatly placed on the shelves on both sides of the door. The shelves are divided into three layers. The oil lamps on each layer are swaying left and right in the night wind, but none of them is extinguished. The light and shadow became swaying from side to side.

Under such light and shadow, Qin Ran glanced at the furnishings in the Hanwu lobby.

There is nothing to watch out for.

Because, except for the shelf with the oil lamp, there is nothing here.

The doors on the left and right sides are closed.

Qin Ran walked directly to the left, where the previous voice came from.

Bang, bang, tie.

Qin Ran knocked on the thick wooden door.

"Please come in."

When the deep and powerful male voice sounded again, the thick wooden door was slowly opened, and a beautiful-looking and tall woman appeared behind the door.

The other party looked at Qin Ran with a scrutinizing gaze.

Then, without leaving a trace, the other party turned sideways and got out of the way.

Although he concealed it well, Kieran could detect a hint of disgust.

However, what interested Kieran even more was the other party himself.

Even with clothes blocking him, Kieran could still spot the bulging muscles on the opponent's body, which was difficult for ordinary men to do.

It's amazing what a woman can do.

What's even more remarkable is that the other party not only did it but also did it very well.

The good news is that the opponent can fight against ordinary adult men to the extent of one against ten, and it is not a miserable victory, but a quick settlement of the battle.

Because, the several calluses on the opponent's palm were telling Qin Ran that the opponent was not only good at unarmed combat, but also good at short blades and firearms.

And the posture of the other party when he turned sideways and retreated, made Kieran even more sure that the other party's legs were also sharp weapons for killing people.

Qin Ran is best at fighting with his legs, so he knows very well what the other party's seemingly obedient gesture just now represents.

Like a viper lurking in the shadows.

It blends with the shadows when it's not moving, and it's a deadly blow when it moves.

"bodyguard?"

"still……"

"Killer?"

Qin Ran guessed, and subconsciously compared the other party with Gebauer.

Finally, Qin Ran shook his head.

animal.

As one of the ace bodyguards of the security company, Gebauer's strength and professionalism are naturally beyond doubt, but compared with the other party, he is still a bit worse.

The thoughts in his heart did not make Qin Ran's movements stagnate.

When the other party stepped aside, Qin Ran stepped into the wing, and then he saw a man with an average build, and he could even be said to be thin.

The man was wearing a white brocade jacket, with slightly long hair hanging down his shoulders naturally. When he met Qin Ran's gaze, the man smiled gently.

"Good evening, 2567."

A deep and powerful voice came from the man's mouth.

If you don't look at the man himself, you will definitely think that a person with such a voice is a strong and powerful man. But when you look at the man himself, a sudden sense of contradiction will suddenly appear, along with the... Be curious.

"Well, good evening, Mr. Knife"

After Qin Ran nodded, he stood there quietly and looked at the man.

There was neither inquiry nor follow-up.

Everything seems to be normal.

"Please take a seat."

"Liu Ye, go and bring the ingredients I prepared."

The man pointed to the wooden round stool in front of him, and ordered the tall maid.

The maid walked outside without saying a word.

The door then closed.

After only Qin Ran and the man were left in the room, the man's smile became more gentle. He stood up and walked towards the cabinet beside him.

Different from the empty lobby, this wing room is fully equipped.

The table and chairs were placed in the center of the room. To the left of the door and against the wall was a three-meter-long cabinet that was as high as the roof. To the right was a shelf one high and two short, with three green potted plants placed on it. Under the light of candles on the table, it becomes more and more gratifying.

Directly opposite is a huge Duobao grid, which is like a wall, dividing the room into two. In the grids of different sizes, there are various porcelain bottles and sculptures of different shapes, including people and animals. , and the top is a rolled scroll.

The man stood in front of the tall cabinet, opened the cabinet door, and took out an incense burner, incense coils and a tea set. Then, he went to a porcelain bottle in front of Duobaoge, took out tea leaves, and then walked around. In Duobao Pavilion, he came back with a transparent water bottle.

"I have a collection of tea leaves."

"It's not a good tea, but it is very suitable for drinking today when paired with tonight's food."

"By the way, you can call me Boss Knife."

Boss Dao started to make tea with a pleasing gesture while talking.

"Um."

After Qin Ran answered, he stopped talking.

He doesn't know how to taste tea, let alone tea tasting.

However, when the strong aroma of tea began to fill the room, Kieran was certain that the 'not good tea' in the other person's mouth must be quite good tea.

Without being polite, Kieran picked up the tea cup.

However, just as the teacup was about to touch his lips, Boss Dao suddenly spoke.

"Does the dead really exist?"
