Arad's crooked savior

There is a noodle shop facing the street. Although the location is average because it is close to the back street, its business is still booming because the taste is very good, the portions are sufficient, and the soup can be refilled for free.

The three of them each ordered their favorite noodles, and cut an extra pound of soy sauce beef and other mouth-cleaning side dishes. Yuena paid for them all, as she had promised to treat Paris.

It’s not that Yuena is reluctant to go to a good place, but Paris chose this noodle shop herself. A big bowl of steaming fried noodles and fragrant beef. After eating, she feels comfortable and can still have a delicious meal when she goes back in the afternoon. Take a nap.

What Yuena and Paris remembered at the same time once caused quite a commotion and bad influence in Hutton Mar.

Another name for the backstreets is "slums". There are also normal families living here. Abandoned orphans like Paris are actually only a handful.

Corinthie was born in the backstreets of Hutton Mar. Her mother, who loved her dearly, died of illness when she was very young. After that, her father not only did not care for Corinthie much, but was aggressive towards her because of his alcoholism. Just insults and beatings.

Kelinjie's skin was often bruised and bruised, her body was slender and her cheeks were thin and pale. Among the children in the slums, she was also an absolute weakling.

Although she was obedient, had a precocious temperament, and never went to school to do odd jobs, but because of the chaos in the backstreets, Kelinjie's things were often robbed, including sometimes the food her father asked her to buy.

At that time, what Kelinjie received was not her father's attentive comfort, or her father's responsibility to stand up for her, but beatings and scoldings, saying that she was useless and would be sold to others when she grew up. Working as a servant in a wealthy family can save you from giving birth to a useless child and make some money.

How long such extremely painful days would last, Kelinjie herself could not sadly tell. Perhaps selling her to someone else's house as a servant would be a new way out.

Until one day, something went wrong for her father and he came home and continued to beat and scold her. Suddenly the door was kicked open, and several pretenders with horns on their heads and exuding an evil aura broke in.

The appearance of the heavily disguised pretenders has been partially mutated. They are terrifying demons. They brutally killed Kelinjie's father, and they didn't seem to have any intention of infecting the other party into the same kind.

But unexpectedly, he turned a blind eye to Kelinjie who was shivering in the corner and left.

With her father's body in front of her, Kelinjie had very complicated emotions in her heart. She walked down the street in despair, like a controlled silk puppet, without any light in her eyes.

I thought that the family tragedy might arouse sympathy. Someone would be kind enough to take her in. She was very capable and was good at cleaning and laundry.

However, walking on the sunny street, Kelinjie received expressions of disgust that others could not avoid. Some even suspected that she had killed her father and that she was the pretender!

"What happened next?" Mo Mei finished half of the noodles and wiped the corners of her eyes with a napkin. She said the noodles were too spicy, but she clearly ordered a bowl of light shredded pork noodles.

"What happened later..." Yuena mixed her own mushroom sauce and sighed: "Our Holy Order captured several severely mutated pretenders, but the little girl Kelinjie also disappeared mysteriously. We all suspect that he was killed or adopted by someone and went to another city."

The three people who mysteriously disappeared had bullied Kelinjie many times, and even mocked her wildly for having no mother and no father's love.

With the important clue of "pretender", she and Paris suddenly remembered this old incident, but whether there is any relationship in it is currently unknown because there are too few clues.

"After dinner, I have to go back and look through the files. Maybe there will be details and new discoveries, suck..."

The noodles are chewy, the fried sauce is delicious, and the price is affordable. It’s a great lunch.

Paris touched her belly and burped in an indecent manner. She had always had such a temperament that she would not care about the image of an elegant lady. She nodded and said, "If there is anything I can help you with, please don't be polite."

Her specialty is poison, and her ability is also poison. She is a wise and majestic poison god... but she can only conduct experiments on rats all day long, and she feels uncomfortable all over.

It is said that due to the revival of the magic circle in Grand Forest and the pursuit of adventurers and good-natured tauren, the number of goblins and cat monsters inside has decreased a lot. Paris wanted to catch some experiments a few days ago body, and almost got lost and couldn't get out.

Fortunately, Celia didn't know what she was doing there, so she brought herself out wearing an elegant long skirt and warm leggings.

But Celia's behavior is a bit strange, but what is strange about it? She has always been careless and can't tell a detailed reason.

Just as the three of them had finished their meal, Yuena was about to ask the waiter to pay the bill...

"Boss, we need to pay the bill! How much is it?"

At the next table, the guest patted the table and raised his small white hands high, for fear that the waiter wouldn't see it.

"Total, five hundred and thirteen, I'll give you five hundred." The waiter was very enthusiastic. After all, the person who gave the money was the "uncle", a god!

It's an affordable noodle shop that specializes in pasta, and you can pay out 500 yuan. You can only guess that the other person ordered a lot of things, and then covered the bowl with beef.

Yuena took a casual glance, and sure enough, there were a lot of serving plates on the table, and many of the dishes on the plates were left with few chopsticks, which was really a waste.

Although I couldn't see their faces clearly due to the angle, the stuffed bear sitting on the chair looked familiar.

"It's worth five hundred... um..." The little girl took out some pentagrams from the small bag she was carrying and put them on the table. "Well, there's no need to look for the extra ones."

"ha?"

The boy's expression became obviously strange, and he picked up a pentagram. It seemed to be some kind of bone product, with a texture ranging from light to tough, and the workmanship was exquisite... But after all, it was not a currency circulating in the Arad continent.

These two girls were quite brightly dressed, with smooth faces and skin like porcelain dolls, and good temperament. They looked like the daughters of aristocratic families... Could it be that they used the toys from the house as payment?

"Ahem, little girl..." The man put down the pentagram, shook his head and said, "Where are your parents? Toys cannot be used as money."

"Sorry! I forgot~ This is not a demon...cough." She hurriedly smiled apologetically, and then, after realizing it, she pulled the pentagram into her bag, and then took out a golden...brick from the bag.

It is about three fingers thick, about ten centimeters wide, and more than twenty centimeters long. It looks like a very standard building brick.

The clerk's mouth twitched when he saw this, and he didn't know what to say. If this brick was really gold, it would weigh at least fifty kilograms. How could a teenage girl with thin arms and legs weigh this with one hand? Easy to pick up.

He became more and more convinced that this was either a prank, or that the eldest daughter of some family was raised in a boudoir and did not know basic concepts such as coins. Moreover, she even brought two ugly stuffed dolls with her to every meal. It was really strange.

The clerk took out a dollar from his pocket, gestured with helplessness and said: "Miss, this is the money, not the toy in your hand that is painted with a layer of gold paint."

He wanted to pick up the bricks and compare them. Miss, please pay the money honestly and don't embarrass us ordinary people... Boom!

More than 50 kilograms of "bricks" hit the wooden floor, instantly startling the nearby noodle eaters. They were stunned. One corner of the brick was slightly deflated. This golden thing seemed... real? !

The extravagant young lady of some family would probably have more than enough to buy this noodle shop with gold bricks to pay for her noodles.

"One meter five!"

Yuena stood up suddenly, very surprised, and shouted.

The person who has been eating noodles at the table behind them is wearing a very recognizable black gothic lolita lace dress, and the always-along Bad Bunny, Crazy Bear, and unexpectedly the short winter melon from the Forest of Dolls.

"Yellow-faced woman!" Yimi Wu was also surprised. With one bite of her little white teeth, she was about to arouse the crazy bear to pinch her. But suddenly her big eyes turned cleverly and he laughed and said: "Yellow-faced woman, take care of the account for me. It’s over!”

"Sorry, no money."

"Then...what if I give you the brick?"

"Boss, let's settle the accounts at the two tables together."
