Chapter 81 Food Contest
Crying is one of the best ways to vent your emotions. After crying a lot, Ellie fell into a deep sleep.
Luo and Kenda left the ward, went to the luxuriously decorated bar, and sat by the window.
On the table against the wall stood a glass of milk and a glass of whiskey, the milk was from Luo and the whiskey was from Kenda.
The two sat facing each other, and outside the window was the clear night sky and a bright full moon.
The spaceship flies at a height higher than the rain clouds, and the sky below is a completely different world.
At this time, Luo is a quiet listener. Through Kenda's narration, he has a more detailed understanding of Ellie and her family.
Ellie's mother is Kenda's older sister. Their two siblings are orphans adopted by Barney's father, intending to cultivate loyal subordinates. Ironically, Kenda and his sister lost their parents because of drugs.
After entering the Garfiel family, Kenda was trained as a killer, while Kenda's sister was trained as an intelligence officer. By coincidence, Barney fell in love with Kenda's sister, and it was logical.
The birth of Ellie has indeed changed the fate of some people.
In attacks from enemies, many people went to death in order to protect Ellie, including her mother.
In the midst of gunfire and blood, Ellie witnessed the death of a loved one.
After that incident, Kenda, who was good at sniping, no longer engaged in assassination, and was transferred back to become the butler of Garfiel's family, and also Ellie's personal bodyguard.
Ellie witnessed Barney's death again tonight, and it must have been another mental blow, so it's no wonder she said that kind of thing.
Knowing Kenda's identity, and Ellie is also very dependent on Kenda, Luo has a general idea, and he doesn't need to stay there all the time, as long as Kenda's injury recovers.
"Even if they give up drugs, those people won't let it go?" Luo took a sip of milk, he doesn't like to drink before going to bed.
Kenda shook his head and sighed: "They won't leave behind any potential threats. Even if Ellie is only ten years old, they won't show mercy. Moreover, the gangster's usual approach to enemies is to destroy the family."
Luo raised his glass and took another sip of milk, frowning slightly.
According to Kenda, after returning to Laxiang City, when the group of small bosses stationed in various sites learned of Barney's death, the worst result would be to directly attack Barney's mansion.
The profits of drugs are terribly high, and Barney started his business with this, controlling the production and export of the entire Laxiang City. His status is only inferior to ten old men, but the way he adopts is tricky.
The money we earn together.
This is his execution philosophy of controlling drugs. Although this approach has convinced many people, human desires are like a bottomless pit. Even if one cake is distributed, someone will always want two pieces.
After a long time, even though you earn a lot, some people will think like this: Why do you take the big money?
Now that Barney is dead, and he has lost so many subordinates during this period, once the small bosses in the Laxiang City area hear the news, they are likely to join forces to eat away Barney's legacy.
Not to mention the location where Barney was climbing, the mansion built on the mountain alone contained unimaginable wealth for them.
Cash, jewelry gold, collectibles... and a lot of drugs, these will become the envy of the little bosses.
"Have you ever thought about taking Ellie out of Laxiang City?" Luo put down his glass and asked.
Kenda nodded and said, "Thought about it, but...we can't get out of this quagmire."
"Just bring enough money to live on, and then find a place to hide your name. Is it possible that they will still be entangled?" Luo couldn't understand.
"I don't mean to belittle you." Kenda stared straight at Luo, and said in a deep voice, "You're a little naive."
"..." Luo was startled, not knowing how to refute.
Kenda smiled bitterly and said, "Even if we give up everything,
There will also be some people who just want Ellie's life, which is an unsolvable hatred. "
"So, we can only live in the mire, or die in the mire."
"Even if Ellie is unwilling to bear this, she must bear it in the future, otherwise the result will be death."
"I won't let Ellie get hurt, but even though it's going to be a thorny road, I'm going to force her to walk it."
"She is still young, but I will stay by her side until she has the strength to protect herself."
After listening to Kenda's words, Luo rubbed his temples and said helplessly, "Is it that exaggerated?"
"You don't know anything about us," Kenda sighed.
You will know that there are ghosts... Luo complained in his heart.
"I really don't know what your gangsters do, but do you want to force Ellie to become the second Barney?" Luo said solemnly.
"No." Kenda said seriously: "I just hope Ellie can live in peace."
Luo rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I probably understand your thoughts. After going to Laxiang City, I will take care of you."
As long as the thoughts of those collectibles are absorbed, after the aura is greatly increased, and the aura is released, most of the gang members will give up their weapons and surrender.
Moreover, Luo does not agree with Kenda's approach, and he does not want to continue to entangle on this topic. He has his own views and what to do next.
Although I don't know how many potential enemies Barney has, but as long as they know that Ellie is in a weak position, they will surely jump out one by one, and then they can solve it together.
Saying that you can't get out of the quagmire... He won't let Ellie get involved in the underground world, let alone let her become the second drug tycoon.
"Thank you!" Kenda's gratitude was beyond words.
After that, Luo confirmed to Kenda the cooperative relationship between the gang and Meteor Street, and explained to Kenda the concerns that came to mind.
Kenda also knew about the plan of feigning death. When he heard Luo's concerns, he immediately understood, and then dispelled Luo's concerns.
Although the gangsters and Meteor Street have a cooperative relationship, it is only a cooperative relationship, and the channels of intelligence information are not connected.
The Council of Elders knew about Barney's death, but there was nowhere to find out more detailed information, while the gang knew about the Council of Elders and the four elders on Meteor Street, but they didn't know enough about how strong they were.
The two parties are a long-term cooperative relationship with clearly marked prices, and each takes what they need, which is beneficial and harmless.
This is a big frame that is harder than steel. Even if the elders of East Street broke the rules, Kenda would not be able to retaliate. After all, he is not a ten-year-old man, so he cannot move this frame.
"By the way, is there any food like dolphin liver on the spaceship?" Luo suddenly remembered this. Since he was on the big ship Kenda, satisfying his appetite is probably a small request.
Kenda replied: "There is still a little left, but the gourmet hunter has already left. With the current level of chefs on the spaceship, it is difficult to reproduce that delicious food."
"That person is not your chef, but a gourmet hunter?" Luo asked unexpectedly.
In other words, I don't have any impression of that person's appearance... It seems to be very ordinary, and the sense of existence is very weak.
Kenda nodded and said, "Yes, even if the master is well-off, he can only be hired three times a month at most, and those uncommon ingredients are very expensive, and they cannot be afforded every day."
"As far as I know, even the top ten richest people in the world can't hire gourmet hunters as their personal chefs."
Luo's eyes widened in surprise. The gourmet hunter, who has so little ink in the original book, is so powerful?
"Some of the world's top tycoons will occasionally co-finance food competitions, set up generous awards, and invite food hunters from all over the world to participate, just to satisfy their appetites."
"Because the awards set up are not purely about money, there are also rare treasures, magnificent jewelry, and sky-high food ingredients. Therefore, once the competition is held, people who come for the awards will flock to it."
It seemed that it was rare for Luo to be so surprised, so Kenda told him everything he knew.
Barney pays great attention to material enjoyment, and occasionally mentions the style of the world's top rich people. Kenda has heard a lot, and knows a little bit, especially in food competitions. Barney always wants to sit in the tasting seat once.
Hearing Kenda's words, Luo Chang saw it, and thought that rich people really know how to play, so they used this way to taste delicious food.
