The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1640 What Should We Do with Boring and Ordinary-Looking People?

Night arrived as promised.

Just when Qin Ran hung up the small blackboard, Amy rushed in impatiently.

In fact, Amy was waiting outside the 'Ye's Restaurant' as early as the afternoon.

She was scared.

Very curious too.

Fear and unknown, like two twin vines, began to grow in her heart, and various speculations came one after another.

"What's going on?"

Amy sat at the bar and asked Qin Ran.

"As you can see, that's what it is."

Qin Ran turned on the TV and tuned to the evening news channel before turning his head and answering.

"What do you mean it's like that?!"

"And before!"

"Did something happen to Sheriff Teddy here the night I was drunk?"

Amy, who was able to reach the top of the newspaper at this age, was definitely not an idiot. On the contrary, she was extremely smart, especially when she didn't drink. With the convenience of her identity, she gradually found some clues.

Kieran was not surprised by this.

So, Qin Ran nodded.

"Um."

"It can be considered your personal experience."

"It's just that you were too drunk at that time."

Kieran said and picked up the newspaper.

Amy was silent.

Although she had been mentally prepared for a long time, at this time, after getting confirmation from Kieran's mouth, Amy still couldn't accept it.

Because this completely overturned her world.

In her mind, death means death.

With death, everything falls away.

Whether it's love or hate.

All disappeared without a trace.

But everything last night told her that death is not the end, but the beginning of another kind. If she hadn't had a strong psychological quality, she would have gone crazy at this time.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Faced with the impact, Amy's breathing became heavy.

"Bring me something to drink."

Amy said.

"No wine, just chicken soup."

Qin Ran emphasized.

"Sure, chicken soup is fine too, as long as it's for drinking."

Amy said very quickly.

Kieran put down the newspaper, filled a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to the other party.

Without using a spoon, Amy just picked up the chicken soup, opened her mouth and drank it regardless of the temperature.

"Hiss! Hot! Hot!"

As soon as her tongue touched the chicken soup, Amy screamed in pain.

"Anxiety and irritability cannot change anything, it will only make things worse and worse."

"So, calmness and calmness are the basis for solving problems."

Kieran said and moved the chicken soup bowl inwards.

This was chosen by Mimosa and is considered one of his private properties. It would be bad if it was broken.

"I know."

"I should calm down."

"But if you encounter ghosts, the dead, or ghosts, can you calm down?"

Amy asked rhetorically.

Even, he said several nouns.

"able."

Kieran said firmly.

Amy looked at Kieran in astonishment, not because she didn't believe it, but because she was curious about why Kieran was so straightforward.

"Because I don't want to die."

Kieran said calmly.

"But death is not... not everyone can become like Deot after death?"

As soon as Amy opened her mouth, she responded quickly.

"It's not just that."

"Just like there are good people and bad people."

"The same goes for the dead."

Qin Ran said.

"So, you're the one who deals with the 'bad' parts of the dead?"

"You watch TV and read newspapers to collect information?"

"Don't you have a similar organization?"

Amy expressed her guess.

"I'm not, but someone is."

Qin Ran shook his head.

"who is it?"

Amy's eyes sparkled.

That’s the excitement that belongs to professional journalists.

"Are you sure you want to see him?"

Qin Ran asked rhetorically.

"I'd like to see that gentleman if I could."

Amy answered.

"Even if you lose some memories, you don't care?"

Qin Ran continued to ask.

"lost memory?"

"You mean?"

Amy was startled and looked at Qin Ran uncertainly. After seeing Qin Ran nod, the female reporter couldn't help but stand up. She subconsciously wanted to rebuke angrily, but then she thought of something and the female reporter slumped. sat down.

"Some secrets can never be known to everyone."

"Because that would break the order."

"But we should have..."

Amy sat there and murmured quietly to herself.

It's like the believers' faith is collapsing.

"I don't know, in many cases, it represents happiness."

"The more you know, the more dangerous it could be."

"It's up to you to choose."

Kieran said, looking at the other person.

Amy frowned, her eyes not averting.

"What's the meaning."

the female reporter asked.

She was not an idiot. Kieran changed his previous indifferent attitude. In addition to her truthfully reporting about Deot, there should be something else that needed her help.

It's not like he suddenly became interested in her.

She knew that kind of man all too well.

It only takes one look to tell the difference.

"Do you want to pretend that nothing happened last night and go back to living a normal life?"

"Still cooperate with me?"

"As you can see, I am indeed collecting information by watching TV and newspapers, but the speed at which I collect it is far from comparable to yours."

"Simply put, I need an assistant to collect information."

Kieran said very straightforwardly.

After discovering the other party's identity yesterday and confirming that the other party's position in the newspaper was not low, Qin Ran had similar thoughts.

Otherwise, even if the other party truthfully reported Deot's affairs, Kieran would not be able to tell him so many things.

"Are you different from those real...witchers?"

"They are professionals."

"And you're an amateur?"

After Amy pondered for a moment, she said a noun recognized by the public.

"almost."

Kieran didn't refute.

He is indeed not a professional.

His current job was to be the owner of a restaurant, so getting rid of some of the dead was just a coincidence.

However, in order to regain his strength faster, he didn't mind letting his spare time occupy the farmland.

Amy didn't answer immediately.

After thinking for more than ten minutes, the female reporter spoke again.

"I can be your assistant, but we are equals."

"You can't force me to do anything."

"And I'll try to help you."

Amy stated her request.

"no problem."

Kieran said, extending his right hand.

“A pleasure to work with.”

“A pleasure to work with.”

As soon as Kieran's palm touched the opponent's palm, Amy let out a long sigh of relief.

At least, Kieran had no interest in her.

This is best for her.

"Do you have a room for rent here?"

After solving the biggest doubt in her heart, Amy began to solve the biggest problem in front of her.

Amy had not returned to her apartment since seeing Deot last night.

For Amy, life alone was wonderful before last night.

But after last night, she always felt that there were 'people' around her, under her feet, above her head, and everywhere.

This feeling is absolutely terrible.

She decided she needed a safe place.

And in Amy's opinion, is there any safer place besides Kieran?

"No."

Kieran answered simply.

"I am your assistant now."

Amy reiterated.

"But we are equal, you said."

Qin Ran returned the original words.

"I didn't take any commission."

Amy argued hard.

"When you get some information from the mouths of the dead that should have disappeared from the world, you will be rewarded beyond your imagination."

Qin Ran was unmoved.

He has too many secrets.

Here, except for Mimosa, Qin Ran was unwilling to let anyone appear beside him for a long time.

Not even the so-called assistants.

"Then what if I go back at night?"

Amy asked.

"Just do whatever you normally do."

"A normal power electric baton is enough for you to deal with the trouble you encounter."

"If it's hard to accept, you can still sit here and stay until dawn."

"The seat fee is 100 per night. If you use it for a long time, I can give you a 99% discount."

Qin Ran said seriously.

"I want money!"

Amy murmured in a low voice, and then she actually took out 200 yuan and put it on the bar.

Amy's Chicken Soup 100.

Seat fee is 100.

Kieran picked up the money and put it into the money box.

"Shouldn't you get change?"

Amy frowned.

Amy is very sensitive to numbers.

"Long-term use is 100. If it's only for one night, how can it be considered long-term?"

Qin Ran answered matter-of-factly.

"It's only 1 yuan!"

Amy's voice rose a little higher.

"A pile of sand makes a tower, and a pile of armpits makes fur. Ten thousand yuan is also composed of ten thousand 1 yuan. One hundred thousand yuan and one million yuan all start from the first 1 yuan."

"Anyone who underestimates 1 yuan will never become a truly rich person."

"Because, they're going to spend every last dollar they have."

Qin Ran said seriously.

Amy didn't object.

Because she thought so too.

For the next time, Amy sat on her seat sorting out information, while Kieran flipped through the newspapers and listened to the TV content.

The time passed quickly into the early morning.

At 1 o'clock in the morning, the program on the TV changed to a recurring TV series.

It's the kind of TV series that can be broadcast for four or five episodes during the winter and summer vacations, and then repeated every holiday.

Qin Ran watched such TV series with great interest.

Being able to be replayed over and over again is a testament to its classic status.

But no matter how classic it is, you can't help but get bored after watching it too many times.

That's certainly the case with Amy.

"You are such a boring person."

"Not handsome enough either."

"I guess you will be alone for the rest of your life."

Seeing Qin Ran looking at him with gusto, Amy couldn't help but say.

Kieran didn't argue.

It was a fact that he was boring, and he knew it.

As for looks?

Although there is system masking, the system's masking is not beautification or optimization, but changes based on the original appearance value.

Therefore, he also admitted that he had ordinary appearance.

And die alone?

It's too early to say this kind of thing now.

So early that he didn't even think about it.

However, just because Kieran didn't argue, it didn't mean that Mimosa would remain indifferent.

After Amy entered the restaurant, Mimosa, who had been listening attentively, finally couldn't help it after hearing this sentence, and Mimosa walked out wearing an apron.

Amy's eyes lit up when she saw the mimosa.

Compared to Kieran's appearance, Mimosa was extremely handsome.

Especially the kind of face that is both masculine and tough, but also has the softness of a girl, which attracts Amy even more.

"You are his brother, Luo Ye, right?"

"He's also the chef of this restaurant."

"Are you really brothers?"

"They look completely different."

Amy stared straight at Mimosa, the burning in her eyes was simply self-evident.

"The interesting soul weighs more than 200 pounds."

"3000 a night for a nice looking skin."

"And my ordinary, boring brother will not die alone if I am with him."

"But what about you?"

Mimosa, who was standing next to Kieran, showed a gentle but not rude smile. The look he looked at Amy was not aggressive, but it put great pressure on Amy.

It was as if the person standing in front of her was not a beautiful young man, but a powerful person in a high position.

She had only felt this feeling when interviewing the mayor of Ai City.

Moreover, even the mayor of Ai City does not have such an almost suffocating sense of oppression.

"I?"

"Of course I have my own plans."

"When I really become successful, I will find an honest man to marry."

Faced with such a sense of oppression, Amy's brain became dull. She wanted to give a more clever answer, but the answer she gave was unconsciously at a disadvantage.

This feeling is simply terrible.

This is simply intolerable!

She was actually being suppressed and out of breath by a young boy?

What a joke!

Fight back!

We must fight back!

After such a thought appeared in her mind, Amy planned to say something else, but when she saw that gentle and impolite smile again, the suffocating pressure that already made her feel more intense, she It was as if he was facing a king who had the power of life and death, and he couldn't even sit still.

"I, I now confirm that you are brothers."

"The way they talk is really the same."

Holding her hand on the bar, Amy said dryly.

Mimosa smiled and said nothing, turned around and handed the thermos cup soaked in wolfberry to Kieran - I'm just here to deliver water, I didn't mean to target you.

If you think I'm taking it personally.

That's your delusion.

Very directly, Amy read this meaning from Mimosa's smile.

Inexplicably, Amy suddenly discovered that compared to her handsome brother, the cold and cold Qin Ran was so easy to get along with.

"Luo Yan, I..."

"Shut up."

Amy wanted to end the embarrassing atmosphere, so she opened her mouth to speak to Kieran, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Kieran's low shout rang in her ears.

Kieran was seen staring at the TV.

But at this time, Amy discovered that the TV series turned into black and white at some point.

A palm appeared on the screen, half clenched into a fist, with the back of the hand facing her, and then... tapped the screen.

Boom, boom!

As the knuckles of the palm collided with the screen, a crisp knock on the door rang.

Amy's face turned pale.

Every blow seemed to hit her heart.

With the lessons learned last night, Amy was already frightened.

At this time, she was even more frightened.

She widened her eyes and looked at Qin Ran for help.

She wanted the professionals present to address this 'problem'.

Then……

She saw it. Kieran stood up and raised his hand to press the switch of the TV series.

Snapped!

Kieran turned off the TV.

PS Fei Long’s hand hurts, this chapter is late, I’m sorry.
