Relying on his relationship with Bedem, he easily got the offal and cleaned beef bones from the meat shop.

"Does it really cost nothing to buy these?"

Locke was a little embarrassed.

"No, it was something that was going to be thrown away anyway. Just take it if you want it. Come to me tomorrow and I can give you the freshest ones."

Bedem said generously.

"No, I have to pay."

Locke stubbornly took out 2 meters and stuffed them into Bedem's pocket.

The main purpose was to allow Bedem to communicate with his old father Uncle Sam when he returned home, so that he could say decently that Locke bought the animal offal that the meat shop didn't need, instead of giving away the animal offal that Locke didn't want.

With Bedem's character, if he didn't pay, he could tell his neighbors the next day that everything Locke ate was given away for free by him.

But as long as he gave money, even if it was 2 meters, Bedem would say that he had made a big business and sold all the animal offal that no one wanted.

The effects of the two are completely different.

If the next time he met Uncle Sam, Locke could also tell Uncle Sam that he had negotiated with his son that it would only cost 2 meters to purchase these ingredients every day.

Locke, who had gotten the ingredients, went home happily, and heard the two familiar voices again on the way.

"Is the cat on his shoulder really a witch?"

The young female sheriff asked.

"It should be just an ordinary cat, without any breath fluctuations."

The older male sheriff replied.

"Well, I was too nervous, but I judged that he was most likely a believer of a witch, and maybe tracking him would yield unexpected gains."

"Angela, don't forget our mission, to investigate the missing C19."

Chapter 26, A Mosquito

The two seemed to be always within 100 meters of themselves, and as long as Locke pricked up his ears, he could hear their whispers.

Of course, this was also quite energy-consuming.

Because there were too many people talking within 100 meters.

Uncle Martin took Kai and hid in a nearby alley, fearing that Kai would be beaten by me again.

Mrs. Neil was scolding her useless husband for only hanging out at the Rose Theater and not going home to take care of the sick child.

Old John was teaching Little John to be careful when stealing things, and not to miss people like Mr. Neil at the door of the Rose Theater.

Countless noisy words were stuffed into Locke's ears.

Locke followed suit, and with the skills of mastering [Life Peeping], he was already practicing how to control the ability of [Acute Hearing].

Focus on listening to the voices of the black cat and the witch lady on his shoulder.

You can ignore the infinitely amplified voices of the people around you.

The black cat made a steady and even breathing sound, and its heartbeat reached 130 beats per minute, which was very healthy.

Locke returned home and began to prepare dinner. He planned to make a beef offal hot pot.

Of course, he would also make some fine-tuning according to the Western tastes of Hannah and Irene.

Hannah was humming a little song, and she was in a very good mood.

"Hannah, what are you so happy about?"

"I have written the news today and submitted it to the largest newspaper, Tumen Times. Locke, I believe I will be able to return to the news industry soon, and then our family's life will get better."

Hannah said excitedly, she clenched her fists and made a victory gesture, her eyes full of yearning and expectation for the future.

Locke was also happy for her, "That's great, to celebrate, let's have beef offal hot pot tonight."

"What pot?"

Hannah was surprised.

"Hot pot, you will know in a while."

Locke began to process the ingredients, sorted and washed the beef bones, kept the tube bones for broth at night, and put the other bones into the pot and cook directly.

Beef lungs, tripe, beef intestines, beef intestines, beef spleen and other internal organs must also be washed clean.

The most important part of making hot pot is actually the pot base.

Locke began to concentrate on preparing the pot base, and the black cat kept watching attentively on his shoulder.

Her eyes were full of disgust.

I don't understand how these things can be eaten.

It was not until Locke prepared a pot of spicy and hot pot that Irene put away her contemptuous eyes.

"Hannah, put the brazier on the table."

Locke had finished all the preparations, and it was time to enjoy the delicious food.

"How can the brazier be put on the table?"

Hannah asked puzzledly.

"This is a necessary condition for hot pot."

Although Locke gave a reason, Hannah still couldn't understand.

But out of trust in her brother, she still lifted the brazier to the table.

Locke left the kitchen with the pot and came to the small living room, and placed the pot on the brazier on the dining table.

Then he brought out the chopped beef offal one after another.

This hot pot made the two people and the cat sweat profusely.

Irene and Hannah had never thought that the internal organs of the cow were unexpectedly delicious.

And eating hot pot in winter is really a good way to warm up the whole body.

[Ding! Feeding the witch successfully! 】

[Witch Favorability +1]

[Witch Irene Mostia Current Favorability 16/100]

Hannah thinks this way of eating should be promoted so that everyone in the West District knows about it.

"Locke, how much did this meal cost?"

"If it's just ingredients and charcoal, it won't exceed 10 grams at most."

Locke said with a smile.

"Isn't this too cheap?"

Hannah, who was full after eating, couldn't believe that such delicious food only used 10 grams.

Locke nodded,

"But if you include the cost of my time, it's at least 100 meters."

Hannah automatically ignored Locke's words,

"When I return to the press, I can apply for a food column for you and write all your delicious and cheap food in the newspaper so that everyone in the West District can eat cheap meat."

"Hannah, if everyone knows about it and starts buying offal, the price of offal will increase, and then we will never be able to eat such a delicious 10-meter hot pot again."

Locke reminded.

Hannah was stunned for a moment, then realized that what her brother said made sense.

"Then it's better to wait until we have the capital to open a store ourselves."

"Yeah, but I can't guarantee that everyone will accept this taste. You and Xiao Ai are people whose tastes are relatively close to mine."

Locke rubbed his chin and thought carefully about the feasibility of this matter. In addition to applying for a catering license from the Kingdom Delicatessen Bureau, he also needed proof of fixed assets.

Although the fixed asset certificate can be replaced by a 20-year house rental contract, the place where the siblings live now is also an apartment signed on a yearly basis, so it is impossible to get a 20-year lease contract.

Opening a restaurant in Tumen Kingdom is a very troublesome thing, so Locke keeps going to restaurants for interviews.

At this time, the two investigators who were secretly observing looked at each other.

"Are we looking for a chef in the Abnormality Bureau?"

"Angela, remember our mission, and do you really want to eat those dirty entrails?"

"They look delicious."

Angela licked her tongue.

Di Mo also swallowed.

"How about we go get something to eat first, and he won't be able to escape anyway."

"Well, I let the mosquitoes keep an eye on him."

Angela stretched out her hand, and a mosquito that landed on her hand flew up, facing the dim light, and flew towards the glass window of Locke's house.

After Hannah finished her meal, she took the initiative to wash the dishes and tidy up the kitchen.

Locke walked to the window and killed a fat and big mosquito.

"Being so fat must have sucked a lot of blood."

Because he was listening intently to Hannah, Locke did not hear the conversation between the two investigators, so he did not know that the mosquito was the younger brother of the female investigator Angela.

He just felt like he had killed an ordinary mosquito.

The black cat raised its head proudly, with its black tail raised upwards. It walked gracefully on the window sill and found a comfortable position to circle around.

"Locke, you just got into trouble."

"Getting into trouble?"

Locke looked at the black cat in confusion.

The black cat yawned lazily,

"The Abnormal Bureau has an anomaly that can control the surrounding insects to monitor the target. This anomaly will strengthen the emotional cohesion of the surrounding insects and turn them into a relationship like family members. If one dies, the other insects will all Avenge it."

"Uh, wait, Xiao Ai, you're not talking about the fact that I just crushed this one to death, are you?"

Locke asked suspiciously.

The black cat Erin nodded.

Locke found a swarm of bees, mosquitoes, butterflies, moths, flies, and ladybugs flying outside the glass window.

There was a rustling sound in my ears. It was the cockroaches in the apartment building rushing here.

He swallowed and let go of his big hand.

The corpse of a mosquito slowly landed on the window sill, its eyes still seemed to be filled with resentment.

Chapter 27, in danger

Looking at the insects coming in droves, Locke's trypophobia almost broke out.

He immediately closed the window, put on his coat before the cockroaches and mosquitoes surrounded him, wrapped his head in a scarf, and rushed out of the apartment, holding the witch girl who had turned into a black cat in his arms.

Irene looked at him suspiciously, not expecting that at the critical moment, he would know that running for his life would not be a waste of time for his master and servant.

Wait, why didn't he call Hannah?

Erin's eyes gradually narrowed.

As Locke left Old Tom's apartment at a sprint speed of 100 meters, the cockroaches, ants and spiders in the apartment also rushed out after him, forming a python-like insect tide.

Locke didn't dare to look back and ran forward to escape for his life.

At this time, the air troops bees, butterflies, moths and mosquitoes and flies have gathered, forming a black net to surround Locke.

To be honest, Locke was really panicking, which was why he escaped from the apartment, fearing that he would implicate Hannah.
