Midnight Restaurant

Chapter 223 Preparations for Departure
Qiao Man's mother, that beautiful mixed-race girl Jennifer, continued to tell us stories about their vampire leader in New Orleans, saying... I still don't like to call this girl by her English name. It doesn't matter.

I am a person who is particularly resistant to everything related to English.

If one day I go abroad, I think it will feel no different from hell on earth.

Of course, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia are not counted, at least people look pleasing to the eye...

Off topic, continue to talk about the vampire leader named Lorenzo.

He is also quite superstitious. He heard that the dragon-patterned ring was a ring of dominance. Getting it would indicate that he would be able to live in the dark world of New Orleans. He was tempted, but the shopkeeper refused to sell it. !But having said that, I don't know what kind of brain bribe Lorenzo is. Maybe when he saw the ring, he could really sense some magical power?
Anyway, I didn't see it, I couldn't understand him.Let me tell you about this, it's just a gimmick for the Chinese shopkeeper to make the business boom, and it's something that attracts people's attention.Don't say you get one, you just get a carload of dragon pattern rings, and I can't dominate your vampires when I get to New Orleans.

However, in this kind of thing, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Some people make up lies, and some people like to believe them.

So Lorenzo, who scratched his head and couldn't get the ring, decided to sneak into the basement of the Chinese store to steal the ring.

Because although Lorenzo was not the leader of the vampire at the time, he was the only direct heir of a prestigious big family after all, and his status was unusual. Such things as stealing chickens and dogs were unacceptable to vampires who thought they were noble.Therefore, he did not arrange a group of men to steal it, he was afraid of leaking the news.

Finally, let's discuss that this operation is only for him, his girlfriend, and his most trusted right-hand men.

The three of them sneaked into the basement, and they didn't know what kind of mechanism spells there were in the basement of the Chinese businessman.It is said that the Chinese didn't make a move that night, so Lorenzo and the other three big vampires played in a mess.Finally, for no apparent reason, the store's basement exploded.

As we all know, vampires are afraid of fire. Once the fire burns on the body, it is basically hopeless.

In the fire, Lorenzo's right-hand man was burned to death, but Lorenzo and his girlfriend were lucky to escape.

But no one expected that this was the beginning of Lorenzo's weirdness.After the explosion, Lorenzo was actually not as lucky as he imagined, because this theft was exposed, not only the inside of the vampire, but also the Chinese businessmen, the witch organization and so on.

His reputation was ruined in an instant.

But what everyone didn't expect was that the Chinese businessman actually found Lorenzo during this period, and did something that no one expected. He gave the dragon ring directly to Lorenzo Renzo, and said that the thing had confessed to him.

This is a setting that confuses everyone.

What's even more confusing is that after getting the ring, Lorenzo really seemed to be a different person. He became very good at arranging things and making major decisions. Soon, he made friends with many powerful vampires. He even recruited many powerful witches, and finally, about a year and a half ago, Lorenzo successfully took over the power of the New Orleans Vampire World.

"Sisters, isn't this a good thing for you? I hear what you mean. You seem to be a retainer in someone else's family. Is that what you mean?" I looked at Jennifer wondering.

She also looked at me: "That's right, because of this, I should be more responsible... I should observe carefully to see if this person is still that bastard Lorenzo."

"Then what happened to him?"

"Since he got that ring, his behavior has changed, you know, once I went to him to discuss something during his private meal, and guess what I found on his table?"

Jennifer looked at me.

I raised my eyebrows at the time: "Uh... this...how can I guess this, he...he didn't eat New Orleans roast chicken?"

"I saw chopsticks!"

At that time, I raised my eyebrows, chopsticks?are you crazy?You don't need chopsticks to eat, so you grab it with your hands?Unless... wait!I suddenly thought of one thing, New Orleans, is that a city in the United States?Foreigners don't seem to use chopsticks, do they?I used to watch videos of foreigners learning to use chopsticks, and that was just making myself guilty.

Obviously, this is a problem.

"So did you see him use it?" I asked Jennifer.

"No... However, I always feel that it is not a coincidence. Lorenzo used to be a bastard, arrogant and rude, but after getting the dragon ring, he began... In the words you used to call it, talking to people , Hell talk nonsense."

"That's a little different... what else?"

"And Lorenzo is usually very romantic, I can often find him in some red light districts..."

Hearing this, I raised my eyebrows, why would you find him in the red light district?Why are you in the red light district, sister?Of course, in consideration of my daughter's physical and mental health, I didn't ask this matter in detail.

Jennifer continued: "But later, he became very dedicated. Except for his little girlfriend, he would hardly get along with any woman alone. And, let's put it this way, he didn't have the ambitions of the past. What he did Everything seems to be for her little girlfriend. He focuses everything on how to make his little girlfriend live in a stable world."

I suddenly felt that this person seemed to be a good person.

Later, Jennifer said a lot, but it can be summed up in one sentence.Jennifer is a militant. She wants to clean up New Orleans, drive out witches, werewolves and other alien species, and make it a paradise for vampires.But Lorenzo's current policy is to formulate rules between several races, as long as no one violates them, everyone can get along well.

He even completely prohibited vampires from killing people. Those who did not control their desires and sucked up human blood would be punished by the dungeon seal for 500 years.

During this period, the vampire without blood will turn into a mummy. Maybe during this process, the mummy vampire will be in a coma, but as long as he has time to wake up, he will suffer inhuman pain, and it is uncomfortable to die.

"...What, I understand what you mean. I have analyzed this matter carefully, and I have guessed the basic situation. It is probably similar to the case of helping the executioner before. I think it might have something to do with the dragon pattern ring." I summed it up.

"So, you need to go back to New Orleans with me, and I need you to get rid of that alien in Lorenzo." Jennifer stared at me.

"No, beauty, listen to me first. We know the reason for this now, but it may not be easy to deal with... Do you understand what is going on? Sometimes the soul is swallowed, maybe I rush I left that impostor, but I really can’t come back. And look, isn’t the underground order in New Orleans still…”

I'd say it's not bad.

As a result, Jennifer looked at me, smiled faintly, and suddenly grabbed Qiao Man: "Daughter, let's go."

My face is full of black lines, a naked threat? !

"Hey, hey! I didn't say I wouldn't help...I'll go, can I go?"

Jennifer let go of Qiao Man's hand at this time: "Since you promised to help, it's easy to handle. It doesn't matter what the result is. I just want to prove whether my judgment is right or wrong... If he is really Lorenzo's best Well, then I respect his decision. But if not, even if you kill him, you won't be able to allow an outsider to control the world of the blood race."

When listening to Jennifer's dialogue, there was only one sentence in my mind: This 1000-year-old middle-aged disease is really enough.

After finishing this second dialogue, Jennifer left.

But she still took Qiao Man away.

In fact, I am very angry about this matter. Why did you use your own daughter to blackmail me?Of course, I don't deserve to make irresponsible remarks. After all, what happened to Bai Ze made me sure that Qiao Man is really my daughter, and I'm just an irresponsible father.

After Jennifer and Qiao Man left, I turned to look at the proprietress.

This woman's expression is that it doesn't matter for ten thousand years, her slender eyes stared at me listlessly: "Ask for leave?"

My face was full of black lines: "That... the last time, I won't ask for leave if anything happens in the future, and then you deduct my wages, hard to deduct... okay, Miss Lan?"

The proprietress giggled: "I like Manman quite a lot, so I didn't plan to stop you at first... But since you've said it all, well, this is the last time to ask for leave."

I let out a long sigh of relief.

But considering the danger of the situation, I looked at the proprietress: "Sister Lan, why don't you let me take Qiu Le with you, and then you'll be busy for two days, okay?"

"No."

The proprietress shook her head.

I was depressed at the time, and it was dangerous when I heard about it. I only made wool for my daughter, and you wouldn’t let me use it for Qiu Le, so I went, even if I entered that Lorenzo’s soul space, I can't beat them either.Even with Chou Le on his feet, he might not be able to win the fight.

However, God is good to me, Sister Lan is not such an impersonal person.

"Young man, have you forgotten that if you leave the restaurant for seven days, you will die."

I thought: "Yeah, so I have to hurry up."

"But I don't think this matter can be resolved in seven days."

"Can't you? Then..."

"So, in order to extend the deadline for you, I decided to go with you."

with me……

Fuck?At that time, I raised my eyebrows, and Sister Lan went with me, so how many blocks of Chou Le were there!I was so happy at the time, I really don't need to mention this feeling, if it wasn't that I couldn't beat the proprietress, I would go directly to give her a bear hug, and then give her a smack.

"But Sister Lan, who will show you the restaurant?"

"Chou Le, Guoer."

"Just the two of them, okay? What if some big boss comes?"

"It's okay, I found another one..."
