After eating and drinking, Si Qingxuan sat back on the sofa in the hall.

Zhaolin threw all the bowls to Solomon to wash, and sat on the sofa half a meter away from Si Qingxuan to peel apples. After peeling, he slashed a few times, and the apples split into petals like blossoms in an instant.

Zhao Lin pushed the plate containing the apples towards Si Qingxuan.

Si Qingxuan: "I don't want it."

Zhao Lin: "Let's eat something."

Si Qingxuan wrinkled his nose and picked a piece from the plate, and bit it down.

Lin Chu stood in the distance, watching the scene in the living room, and sighed softly.He turned his head and found Solomon standing beside him, with a hint of disappointment on his handsome face.

"I lost." Solomon said, "I haven't paid attention to the Patriarch's preferences at all. I will definitely lose this competition."

Lin Chu patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be sad, you've deserved to die. Get ready to pack up and leave."

Solomon looked at him with some doubts: "What do you mean?"

"This is their bet. If Zhaolin wins this competition, you will have to leave this villa, at least you will not be able to live under the same roof as Qingxuan." Lin Chu said, "As for Zhaolin... I think he will sooner or later Will move in. But it depends on Qingxuan himself."

Solomon was a little surprised, and then he thought about it seriously: "Then, is the task of protecting the Patriarch with him handed over to Mr. Zhao from now on? If this is the Patriarch's wish, then I have no objection. I will continue my work when the Patriarch is away. guard work."

Lin Chu was silent for a while.

It stands to reason that Zhao Lin is a member of the Prevention and Control Bureau, so he really can't be by Si Qingxuan's side all the time.On the contrary, if Zhaolin accepts tasks more diligently, he may not be seen for a week or two when he is busy.

"Let's leave these to them to adjust." Lin Chu said, "We can't worry about everything for them."

Solomon nodded.

So, when Si Qingxuan realized it, both Solomon and Lin Chu disappeared.

He only received two messages from the two men.

"Let's go first, don't read." This is from Lin Chu.

"Master, I am temporarily moving out of the villa. If you need it, please summon me at any time. PS: I will work hard to learn cooking skills, and then challenge Mr. Zhao." This is from Solomon.

Si Qingxuan: "..."

He glanced up at him.

Zhao Lin was standing in front of the kitchen table, carefully wiping the small knife that was used to peel apples before, and then put the knife back on the shelf.

Si Qingxuan inhaled secretly: This really lured a wolf into the house.

When Zhao Lin turned around and walked towards him, Si Qingxuan instantly straightened his expression, raised his brows, and asked in a very natural way: "They are all gone, when do you plan to leave?"

"I don't intend to leave." Zhao Lin's expression looked calm, but his eyes betrayed him. He stared at Si Qingxuan intently, as if he didn't want to miss even a second, "I want to stay."

"I have already promised you to drive Solomon away." Si Qingxuan tried his best to put on a straight face, admonishing Zhaolin not to push his feet, "Do you still want to reach the sky in one step?"

Turn a deaf ear to it.

He lowered his head like a dog begging for comfort, trying to bury his forehead in Si Qingxuan's shoulder.It was a clear, vulnerable gesture.

Si Qingxuan turned around and stopped him: "I said before, I will give you a chance to reform. But I didn't say that I would easily let you into my house—"

"But you ate all the food I cooked." There was a slight smile in Zhao Lin's tone, "You didn't even leave me any."

Si Qingxuan suddenly became angry: "Are you accusing me of eating too much?"

"No. I just want to explain that I am very suitable to be your chef." Zhao Lin surrendered, "I think you should keep me... Patriarch."

Zhao Lin pronounced the words "Master Patriarch" in a clear tone, and his deep voice was a bit muffled, as if a feather had gently scratched someone's heart.

Si Qingxuan was slightly stunned, and then turned his face away: "What's the use of keeping you, you are the captain of the disaster prevention and control bureau, if I hire you part-time as my cook, I will starve to death."

"Then I won't be the captain anymore." Zhao Lin said, "I'll just stay at home and be with you every day, okay?"

Si Qingxuan only thought that he was coaxing people with sweet words, after all, this was not the first time Zhaolin said this, so Si Qingxuan also said in a teasing tone: "Forget it, your director is willing to let people go?"

"Back then, I was forced to be imprisoned in the laboratory. People from the Disaster Prevention and Control Bureau rescued me. I owe them favors. Now the favors have almost been repaid." Zhao Lin bowed his head, his eyes flickering, like two "Actually, there are also people in our place who have switched from the Prevention and Control Bureau to Slinge, or from Slinge to the Prevention and Control Bureau. Members of the two organizations have circulated for a long time. I am not the first case, so I will not be greatly affected. hindrance."

"But...it's not yet the time limit I agreed with them. So, you have to come forward and 'redeem me home' in advance." Zhao Lin continued, "They will definitely offer some unkind conditions. But it doesn't matter, I will use my whole body to cover your loss. I will also do the errands of Si Lingge. I will do my best so that you will not suffer. "

The smile on Si Qingxuan's face gradually disappeared.

He didn't expect that Zhao Lin was serious.

Si Qingxuan frowned.

[Don't be surprised, High Priest.It's normal for him to choose so. 】The system suddenly interjected, 【You should still remember what we discussed before, right? ... Hellfire is not a talent that ordinary people can bear, and frequent use will inevitably affect lifespan. 】

[The bad news is that the Hellfire is very special, and Yuanyue's life force cannot prevent the Hellfire from destroying its host. 】

[You have also seen those red marks on his body before.That is the backlash of the hell fire on him.After a few years, his body will enter a weakened state, and the hellfire will start to get out of control.According to human rules, at that time, he will be 'cleared'. 】

"But why, in the first few years when I knew him, did he have no signs at all?" Si Qingxuan asked in his heart.

【Over ten years? 】The system replied, 【No, if he really awakened his talent at an early age, then his prison fire must have been sealed for more than ten years in the middle, and it was not unsealed until recently.Although, even during the sealing period, the Hellfire will cause invisible damage to the host's body... But compared to the fully awakened form of the Hellfire, that damage is almost negligible. 】

This is equivalent to that after the Prevention and Control Bureau rescued Zhaolin from the research institute, he sealed his talent to reduce the damage of the prison fire to him.When they needed him, they would undo the seal.

In this way, the life that shines can be ignited at the most suitable time.

This sounds a bit unbelievable.Who has the ability to set up such a forward-looking layout?

But Si Qingxuan knew that there was one person who could do it.

Disaster Prevention Bureau, Yunjing General Bureau, the famous "Prophet".

...Although, this is just his guess.

Si Qingxuan took a deep breath and felt a burst of anger for no reason.

"If I find a way to reseal Hellfire, can he return to his normal lifespan?" he asked the system.

System: [Not optimistic, but better than doing nothing. 】

Si Qingxuan's brows trembled slightly.

He reached out his hand immediately, grabbed Zhao Lin's neckline and pulled it in front of him.Zhao Lin was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Si Qingxuan was going to do something charming, so he specially relaxed his upper body, but he was lifted by Zhao Lin's whole body.

The ambiguous atmosphere is gone.On the contrary, Si Qingxuan suddenly became angry for some reason.

"Then you call me to resign now." Si Qingxuan said fiercely, "If your boss has any objections, then ask him to call me."

"I'm going to ask someone to draw up a contract right now, and hire you as my personal assistant. The salary is the same as Solomon's, including food and housing, five insurances, one housing fund and thirteen salaries. If you don't do well, you will be deducted from the bonus until the deduction is exhausted. " Si Qingxuan vigorously began to verbally draw up a contract with Zhaolin, "As you said, if the Prevention and Control Bureau asks me for a 'redemption fee', the money will be recorded on your head first, and you will pay it back with your salary. You are not allowed to resign or change jobs before the end. If you have any comments, please raise them now."

Zhaolin: "..."

Zhao Lin blinked, and suddenly felt helpless that a dream had suddenly come true.

"Does my cooking really suit your taste?" After thinking for a long time, Zhao Lin came up with such a reasonable explanation.

Si Qingxuan heheed twice, let go of his collar, and turned away his face.

Si Qingxuan decided to investigate the "prophet" of the Prevention and Control Bureau.Including the origin, means and weaknesses of the opponent.

Si Qingxuan didn't want to use Si Ling Pavilion's intelligence department.

Because the prophet is the veteran of the Yunjing General Administration, any information related to him is top secret.If Si Linge wanted to dig out some real information, he would inevitably have to deal with people from the Prevention and Control Bureau.Both organizations are too familiar with each other, and they can see through each other's routines at a glance.Who can guarantee that the information obtained through such investigations is true information?

In the prevention and control bureau... it's better to have your own people.

Si Qingxuan remembered the banquet on the list of believers.

forget it.Instead of expecting him to spy on intelligence, it is better to expect him to fight Zhaolin with bare hands.

Then, Si Qingxuan thought of a suitable candidate.

……

Lingyang Disaster Prevention Bureau, Medical Center.

The thin young man was lying on a hospital bed with a ventilator on his face.The oxygen pipe made dull sounds, but the young man still seemed to be having difficulty breathing, and blue-black blood vessels appeared on his forehead.

The mild night outside the window suddenly dimmed.

The dark shadows, like flowing sea water, slowly flooded the entire ward, and slowly flooded the young man's hospital bed.

The young man seemed to be aware of it, and opened his eyes with difficulty——

But found himself lying in a piece of pure black.

He was startled.

There is no sense of touch, no sense of space, no sound in his senses, only endless nothingness.

He felt that he was floating with the darkness, and his perception was being dissolved little by little.Like snow melting.

no no……

His "ego" uttered one last cry for help before it began to fade away.

Bell, bell.

He seemed to hear two vague bells ringing.

He looked up sharply in the direction of the bell.

A huge, full and clear white moon is rising silently.Where the moonlight shines, the soul trembles and weeps with ecstasy.
