240: Section 240
"Kid, what are you busy with every day?" Chu Zhengxiong's booming voice came through.
Lin Yi laughed: "What else could I be busy with? I'm busy receiving packages every day. Big Brother Chu, have you been discharged from the hospital?"
"I have. I'm heading back to the New District tomorrow!"
"Are you free? If you're not busy, come out, and I'll treat you to a meal.
You always say I'm just feeding you empty promises, so today I'm determined to make good on that promise!"
"Sure, that's great! I was just worrying about what to have for dinner tonight!"
"Alright, I'll send the address to your phone in a bit. Just head straight over!"
After Chu Zhengxiong finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Not long after, a message came in.
Lin Yi looked down at it, and his expression changed slightly.
The address Chu Zhengxiong sent was actually for 'He Family Kitchen'?
That small courtyard Lin Yi had been to twice?
After replying with [Received], he walked back toward home.
He changed his clothes and left some monster meat for Xiao Qi.
Ever since he discovered that Xiao Qi had a special fondness for monster meat.
He had switched its daily food from millet to monster meat.
Moreover, Xiao Qi's appetite was huge. At first, a small piece was enough.
As the days passed, Xiao Qi now ate at least two taels per meal.
It ate four meals a day, which meant eight taels of monster meat.
If it continued to develop at this rate, its appetite would soon reach one jin per day.
However, while Xiao Qi's appetite was increasing.
Its size hadn't changed at all.
Only its coat color had become increasingly vibrant, and its feathers were slowly growing out.
Now, Xiao Qi dared to jump from high places and glide in mid-air...
"I have to go out in a bit, so I won't be taking you with me today!"
"I've already prepared your dinner. Eat whenever you're hungry.
Once you're full, go back into the box to sleep!"
"I'm warning you, don't go around using Ice Seal while I'm not home. Oh right, one more thing: that fireball of yours is forbidden inside the house!"
"If you set the place on fire, we'll both be homeless, and you might end up becoming a roast chicken... no, a roast bird!"
Lin Yi warned Xiao Qi sternly and seriously.
He had to remind it; it was truly a troublemaker.
Every night, after Lin Yi entered the spatial Domain of the [Galaxy Qi Transformation Technique].
It would sneak out of the cardboard box and play with Ice Seal in the bathroom.
Especially in the last two days, Lin Yi had discovered that it could control fire.
Although the flame was only the size of a fingernail.
However, it could still start a wildfire.
As long as the flame touched something flammable, it could burn the whole house down.
Xiao Qi looked at Lin Yi with a somewhat aggrieved expression.
[I want... don't leave me behind, take me with you, I want to go...]
Xiao Qi was acting spoiled with Lin Yi through its Divine Thought.
"No way, my pocket is too small today, I can't fit you!"
"Besides, the person treating me to dinner looks fierce and menacing. Aren't you afraid he'll discover you and treat you as a dish?"
As he finished speaking, Xiao Qi seemed to be frightened.
It hurriedly took a few steps back, and Lin Yi smiled.
"Alright, stay home and behave. Don't cause any trouble, and I'll be back after I eat!"
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he put Xiao Qi into the box.
Only then did he head out toward the entrance.
Just as Lin Yi walked out of the residential complex, he saw a motorcycle parked there.
Chu Zhengxiong was still wearing the same outfit, with a leather jacket on.
On his head, he wore a pink helmet.
After the two of them exchanged a glance.
Lin Yi walked over with a smile: "Big Brother Chu!"
"Get on, I'll take you to eat. Here's a helmet for you!"
Lin Yi took the helmet; the color was normal.
It wasn't the pink one like Chu Zhengxiong's.
As a loud roar sounded, Chu Zhengxiong drove off with Lin Yi.
"Big Brother Chu, ever since I first met you, I've been curious and wanted to ask.
Why are you wearing a pink helmet? If I'm not mistaken, that should be a women's style, right?"
This question had been stuck in Lin Yi's mind for a long time.
At first, he didn't dare to ask because he wasn't close to Chu Zhengxiong.
Later, after they got close, he kept forgetting. If it weren't for Chu Zhengxiong riding the motorcycle over today.
Lin Yi probably would have forgotten about the helmet long ago.
Amidst the loud roaring sound.
Chu Zhengxiong replied: "You're talking about this helmet of mine? It's my sister's!"
"Ah? You have a younger sister?"
"What's that supposed to mean? Can't I have a sister? When you go to the New District, I'll introduce her to you. She's the same age as you this year and is also in college!"
Lin Yi hurriedly shook his head: "Big Brother Chu, let's forget it. I don't want to date anyone right now!"
"What are you thinking, kid? Who said anything about you two dating? I just want you to get to know each other.
My beautiful sister is someone you can't reach!"
Lin Yi: "Beautiful? Are you sure?"
Chapter 191: Martial Suppression Bureau, a department directly under the Martial God
The motorcycle sped along the way.
Soon, Lin Yi and Chu Zhengxiong arrived outside the small courtyard.
The two of them got off the bike one after another and walked straight into the small courtyard.
Ding-a-lingβ
Another round of brass bell ringing.
Soon, Old He was seen walking out from the back, wearing a chef's uniform.
"Captain Chu, you're here? Eh?"
When Old He saw Lin Yi beside Chu Zhengxiong, he couldn't help but look stunned.
"Old He, hurry up and serve the food. Make the Beast Banquet I ordered with care.
My little brother here is at the age where he needs to nourish his body, so don't try to fool me!"
Chu Zhengxiong said nonchalantly.
As a result, Lin Yi walked over and said politely: "Master He, we meet again!"
"Hmm? What's going on? You two know each other?"
Chu Zhengxiong was stunned, seeing that Old He and Lin Yi seemed to be quite familiar with each other.
This left him a bit confused.
Lin Yi nodded: "I've been here twice for noodles, and Master He's cooking is excellent!"
Old He also smiled and said: "We're all acquaintances. You two go ahead and sit; the Beast Banquet will be here soon!"
After finishing, Old He walked toward the kitchen.
It was the same as the previous two times Lin Yi had come.
All the tables here were empty; there wasn't a single guest eating here.
Finding a table at random to sit down, Chu Zhengxiong asked with a curious expression: "Wait, you're actually able to come here to eat?"
"What's wrong?"
Lin Yi was a bit puzzled; he didn't understand what Chu Zhengxiong meant.
Isn't this just a private kitchen restaurant?
And since it uses monster meat as ingredients, the price is indeed very expensive.
That shouldn't be enough to make Chu Zhengxiong so surprised.
"It seems you don't know jack shit!" Chu Zhengxiong seemed to understand something.
Then he took a cigarette out of his pocket, lit it, and leaned back in his chair, puffing away.
