The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1671 Proposal

Leaf's Restaurant.

Song Shi pushed open the door and walked in, walked straight to the bar, and sat down.

"The food on today's menu, ten portions."

With that said, Song Shi slapped a pile of money on the bar.

Qin Ran picked it up, counted it carefully, put it in the money box, and shouted towards the kitchen——

"Ten portions."

"OK."

Mimosa responded.

When Song Shi heard Mimosa's answer, he couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth.

Ever since she left, she had been looking forward to the voice appearing again, and now that she heard it, her mood immediately improved.

Especially when the aroma of food came, Song Shi couldn't help but take a deep breath.

“It smells so good!”

She said this.

Then, he asked Qin Ran very simply.

"Does Luo Ye have a girlfriend?"

"No."

Kieran gave a negative answer.

"Do you have a fiancée?"

"No."

Qin Ran denied it again.

"Then what do you think of me?"

Songshi asked persistently.

Qin Ran frowned. The other party's question made him feel a little irritated. However, after covering it up out of habit, Qin Ran answered directly.

"not so good!"

"What's not great?"

"Am I not good-looking enough?"

"Or am I out of shape?"

"Or maybe my family background is not good?"

Facing Qin Ran's answer, Song Shi looked as if his hair had exploded, glaring at Kieran angrily.

Qin Ran looked at Song Shi calmly, his eyes already as calm as water, but... there was a hint of coldness in his eyes involuntarily.

After just looking at each other for a second, Song Shi looked around unnaturally.

That look was terrible.

Being stared at, it was as if one could hear the soul of the dead roaring in his ears.

However, the eldest lady Songshi didn’t want to just ‘give up’.

"You're not Luo Ye, how do you know?"

She lowered her voice and spoke softly.

The words were spoken in a low voice, but how could they escape Qin Ran's ears? A sharpness suddenly appeared in his calm and cold eyes.

It pierces the turquoise stone like a knife.

As a good friend of Mimosa, how could he allow such a scumbag who was obviously looking for toys to get close to Mimosa.

Song Shi was really frightened by this look.

This was not the first time she had come into contact with Kieran.

But she couldn't get used to the oppressive feeling brought by the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

How many people did this guy kill in his last life?

The shock rising from the bottom of his heart caused illusory animal ears to appear on Song Shi's head again, and an illusory tail appeared behind him.

It's not about fighting.

But it comes from the protective instinct in the blood.

At this time, the kitchen curtain was lifted.

Mimosa walked out with a bowl of chicken soup and shrimp wontons.

He gently placed the bowl on the bar in front of Song Shi.

"The ones you have are good."

"But I just don't like it."

Mimosa's voice was as gentle as her movements, but in that shallow, gentle smile, there was an air that could not be refused.

Song Shi opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

But in the end nothing was said.

She lowered her head and started eating the wontons.

Mimosa turned to look at Kieran.

Suddenly, the smile turned into a simple smile.

Kieran's eyes also softened at this moment.

"I'll bring it to you."

Mimosa said this.

Kieran's smile deepened a little deeper.

Li Jiajia stood at the door of the kitchen and quietly clenched her fists.

Look!

This is the power of a chef!

As long as there is a delicious food, everything can be resolved!

This is my life goal!

Li Jiajia became more determined and immediately returned to the kitchen. She wanted to do the basic skills assigned by the teacher ten times again.

Mimosa came out with chicken soup and shrimp wontons specially made for Qin Ran.

Different from the previous bowl of shrimp wontons, this bowl is more particular about the ingredients and at the same time, more attentive.

Therefore, the scents are all different.

Songshi, who was engrossed in eating, raised his head as soon as his nose moved.

He looked at the wontons in Qin Ran's bowl and then at the wontons in his own bowl, frowning.

"Why are they treated differently?"

Songshi protested.

"We are different."

As Qin Ran said this, he picked up the soup spoon and took a sip of the soup. It was as if the soup was light and watery, with green onions and coriander floating on it. But as soon as he took his mouth, the rich aroma of chicken soup spread on his taste buds, without any fishy smell. The taste is just like chicken soup.

"I paid for it!"

Songshi emphasized.

"That's why you can sit here."

Qin Ran answered and picked up another wonton. Under the light, the dough of the wonton was almost transparent, vaguely revealing the reddish shrimp meat. After taking a bite, the elastic shrimp meat bloomed between the teeth. The sweetness was instantly matched with the delicious taste. The chicken soup melted into one, allowing Kieran to swallow the whole wonton.

Ignoring Song Shi, Qin Ran took one wonton in one mouthful and a bowl of ten wontons. He ate them all in a few seconds. Then, he picked up the bowl and poured the entire bowl of soup into his stomach.

"call!"

After all the soup was in his stomach, Qin Ran let out a sigh of satisfaction.

At this time, Mimosa had already walked out with the second bowl of wontons and handed it to Kieran.

"You won't have any guests if you do this!"

Songshi protested.

Mimosa looked at Song Shi apologetically.

This kind of apology is the kind of apology a restaurant owner should make when facing an unhappy customer.

However, this apology was obviously nothing compared to his concern for Qin Ran.

For Mimosa, the restaurant in front of her is important because she and Kieran work hard to run it. If Kieran is not happy, then what's the use of this restaurant?

Mimosa has always been clearly divided into primary and secondary.

Therefore, Song Shi could only sit here, swallowing his saliva, and watching Qin Ran devouring ten bowls of wontons in a row before he received his second bowl of wontons.

Song Shi, who was already extremely hungry, didn't care about protesting at this time. She picked up the spoon and started eating.

The faint snoring that had just stopped in the restaurant started again.

Moreover, it lasts longer than before.

Because Song Shi asked for ten more copies.

This time, Songshi didn’t need to give away medicine for free.

After fully preparing the turquoise stone, when he felt that he was about to reach his limit, he took out a secret Jianweixiaoshi pill, threw it into his mouth, and patted a pile of money on the bar.

Seeing Qin Ran counting the money carefully, Song Shi curled his lips.

"Money-grubbing guy!"

"If you were not the reincarnation of the God of Death, you would be no different from those stingy people."

Songshi said very decisively.

Kieran didn't refute.

He is greedy for money, he admits it.

He didn't steal or rob, he made money by his own skills, what's the shame?

After silently calculating the money in the money box, Qin Ran looked at the empty fish tank beside him. The fish tank that was full yesterday was now empty except for water.

I obviously remember that there were lobster, conch, abalone, crab, octopus, and sea cucumber in it?

He divided the jars with his own hands and put various foods into their respective compartments. Why was it gone so quickly?

He didn't remember how much he ate?

really……

The fish tank is too small!

The space from the bottom of the stairs to the bar should be turned into a fish pond.

Moreover, if there is a fish pond, some larger food can also be put in it.

Boom, boom!

Song Shi couldn't help but knock on the bar countertop. What was the guy in front of him doing? Looking at an empty fish tank can make you distracted!

Is this fish tank more attractive than her?

Songshi, who had always been very confident in his own charm, couldn't help but become suspicious at this time.

However, such suspicion did not make her forget another thing that happened when she came to the restaurant today.

"Let's form an alliance!"

Songshi said suddenly.

After hearing such words, Qin Ran finally turned his head and looked at Song Shi in surprise.

"What's that look in your face?"

"In your eyes, am I just that kind of eldest lady who is unruly, willful, unreasonable, lazy about enjoying herself, and never cares about business?"

Song Shi asked.

"um, yes."

Qin Ran nodded.

"you!"

"snort!"

"I don't know the same as you!"

Song Shi stood up from the chair angrily, but immediately sat back. She hugged her shoulders, looked at Qin Ran, raised her head slightly and said: "This 'Winter Night War' is different. Although I don't think I am alone. Something will happen, but I think it would be more appropriate if I had an extra helper. At least, this would allow me to get twice the result with half the effort in finding those special items!”

"Special item?"

"Do you know what was put in the 'Winter Night War' this time?"

Qin Ran asked.

"certainly!"

"After all, one of the items came from my family!"

"More than half of the reward items that will appear in the 'Winter Night War' this time are contributed by various families, including monsters and demon hunters."

Song Shi explained.

"What about the rest?"

Qin Ran continued to ask.

"The rest was raised by the herders, but most of it was money. There were very few really useful props and they didn't have much value."

There was a hint of contempt in Song Shi's words.

Obviously, in Songshi's eyes, 'money' is the least valuable thing.

However, Qin Ran was different.

After hearing Song Shi's words, his eyes narrowed slightly.

For him, passing money is much more precious than any props. As long as he has enough passing money, he can unlock more attributes.

What props cannot be obtained?

"Do you know where these things are?"

Qin Ran asked the question he was most concerned about.

Immediately, Song Shi rolled his eyes in a very unladylike manner.

"How could I possibly know?"

"In fact, except for that adult, no one knows where these things are placed!"

"Even, according to some information I learned, after the adult put the things there, there was no way to confirm whether those things would still be there."

Songshi lowered his voice.

Qin Ran frowned and had some guesses in his heart.

"Where is that?"

he asked.

"I have no idea."

Song Shi shook his head, and then the eldest lady couldn't help but asked again: "How about it? Let's form an alliance?"

"I'm used to being alone!"

Qin Ran answered.

“There is strength in numbers!”

Song Shi emphasized.

"It's superfluous."

Kieran said calmly.

"You are simply unreasonable!"

Song Shi seemed to be angry, turned around and walked away angrily.

Qin Ran stared at the other person's back until the other person completely disappeared, then he raised the corner of his mouth and murmured to himself.

"You pretend to be yourself in front of the people closest to you, but you show your shrewdness in front of me, who is almost making a living?"

"Sure enough, no one from such a big family can save money."

Qin Ran was not sure whether Song Shi's invitation to form an alliance was sincere or had ulterior motives.

But the other party was enough to make Qin Ran's memory fresh and vigilant.

Kieran can be sure that no matter who treats the other party as a young lady who can be deceived and bluffed, the other party will be unlucky in the end.

And in this 'Winter Night War', there will definitely be many characters similar to the opponent.

There might even be someone more powerful hidden.

"It's getting more and more interesting!"

Qin Ran thought silently in his heart.

However, he did not forget what he should do most at this moment.

Be fully prepared for a short break.

Keep your mimosa safe and worry-free.

In an abandoned factory warehouse, three people gathered around a simple stove to keep warm.

The main body of the stove was a discarded gasoline barrel. After a piece of square wood was put into it, the flames immediately started, and the surrounding temperature immediately began to rise.

The rising flames even illuminated the faces of the three people around them.

The faces varied, but they were all pale and gloomy.

One of them also had a huge scar on his face, which was intimidating.

"enough."

"too bright."

Scarface whispered.

The person sitting on the left side of the other party immediately picked up the lid on the side, suppressed the flames, and asked: "Are we just hiding here?"

"Being able to hide here is better than dying!"

"Or do you want to fall into the hands of the Songshi family like Mazim?"

The man sitting on the right side of Scarface sneered.

The person who spoke first pursed his lips, and finally fell silent.

For these witchcraft people, they are very happy to bring death and fear to others, but it is difficult to accept if others give them death and fear.

Not to mention life would be worse than death.

Falling into the hands of the Songshi family would be worse than death!

The three people here could all guess what kind of situation Mazim would face.

"Is the 'Philosopher's Stone' true?"

asked the first person to speak.

"Whether it is true or not has nothing to do with us!"

"We just have to wait for the storm to pass!"

"Once the limelight is over, not only is other people's territory in Ai ours, but their property is also ours."

Another person said nonchalantly.

"But when will the limelight pass?"

The first person to speak looked tormented.

"Soon!"

"This 'Winter Night War' is about to begin!"

"I have received the news. This 'Winter Night War' is different - it will definitely attract everyone's attention. Then it is time for us to take action. The resentful spirits I raised have already been impatient. There have been A guy told me that he found a very special soul in a restaurant, and when the time comes, I want to go and see it."

Another person said confidently.

As soon as special souls were mentioned, the first person to speak immediately became interested.

The two people discussed it enthusiastically.

After a long time, the two realized something was wrong.

Scarface, the temporary boss of their trio, was too quiet.

Although he is usually taciturn, when facing special souls, the other party is always willing to speak up.

Subconsciously, the two of them looked at Scarface.

Scarface was seen sitting there motionless, and one of them raised his hand to push.

thump!

Scarface fell straight to the ground.

The two of them were about to stand up in panic, but suddenly a cold light flashed before their eyes.

puff!

puff!

A sharp knife grazed the two men's necks in no particular order, and blood spurted out like a fountain.
