Food saved the world.
However, the other party didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with his actions.
He even asked, "What are you laughing at? You're so happy. "
Yi Su calmed his heart that was beating like a drum.
She looked up.
When she saw the other party's face clearly, especially after smelling the strong smell of alcohol on him, she stopped smiling and greeted him coldly, "Good evening, Mr. Smith."
The "Mr. Smith" Issou mentioned was also a neighbor who lived nearby.
His full name was Boone Smith.
He was a notorious drunkard. Because he liked to cause trouble after drinking, he had a very bad reputation in this area.
Even Issou, who had just moved in, knew this.
She just didn't expect to be so unlucky to run into him tonight.
After greeting Smith, Zhang Zian nodded.
Issou wanted to go around him and leave, but he reached out and stopped her, "Hey,
Don't be in such a hurry to leave. You haven't told me why you were laughing so happily just now. "
Looking at the drunk Smith, he said, "Don't worry.
As he staggered closer to her, Yi Su subconsciously took a few steps back. She was considering whether to turn around and run away, but Yi Su didn't.
After all, it was a waste of energy to reason with a drunkard.
But Issou didn't expect that there was someone standing behind her.
When she took a step back,
She directly bumped into the other party.
She was so shocked that her steps became unstable.
If the other party hadn't grabbed her shoulders from behind,
She would have fallen.
After Issou steadied herself, she turned her head and met a pair of ice-blue eyes. "Mr. Lecter?"
Hannibal heard this and nodded at Issou. After giving her a reassuring look, he reached out and shielded her behind him. Then his gaze fell on Smith, who was facing them.
Seeing that Smith was about to step forward, Hannibal raised his hand and pressed the crutch in his hand against Smith's chest. After the gentleness and friendliness faded from his blue eyes, they became particularly cold and gloomy.
He said word by word, "Hop, it."
Hannibal's vocal cords had not fully recovered, so when he spoke, his voice was very hoarse. It did not match his gentle and refined appearance at all. It was not even pleasant to hear, but Izzo, who was completely protected behind him, felt very safe.
She reached out and grabbed Hannibal's coat. Her little head poked out from behind him. She couldn't see his expression and eyes at this time, but she could clearly see that Smith, who was poked by Hannibal's cane, seemed to have suddenly sobered up. He looked at them with a bit of fear and then walked away cursing.
Issou did not notice what Smith was swearing about. Instead, he noticed that Smith was not staggering at all. What else did he not understand?
This guy was clearly just pretending to be drunk!
Issou was furious. "How can there be such an annoying person in this world?"
He was indeed annoying.
Thinking of the filthy words that Smith had just said, Hannibal's eyes turned cold. However, when Issou turned back, he concealed the coldness in his eyes.
"By the way, Mr. Lecter, can you speak now?" Issou was a little surprised that he had just spoken.
[It's getting better.] Hannibal typed on his phone. [But it will take some time to fully recover.]
"Oh, oh." Seeing this, Issou could not help but laugh. Seeing that Hannibal was looking at her in confusion, she said, "Nothing, I was just thinking that if you didn't speak and instead typed to tell Smith to get lost, it would have looked a little funny."
Hearing Issou's words, Hannibal inexplicably felt that it was a little funny. He could not help but laugh. He lowered his head and typed a line of words on his phone. [Are you okay?]
"Nothing's wrong at all." Issou spread her hands at Hannibal. The smile on her lips was as sweet as honey. "I have to thank you for just now. You appeared just in time."
As she said this, she glanced at the shopping bag in his hand. "Mr. Lecter, you went out shopping again?"
The reason why Izzo said "again" was because she had bumped into Hannibal who was out shopping for the past two nights when she returned home.
[Anyway, I was bored at home. I thought that I needed something, so I went out to buy it.] Although Hannibal was in a wheelchair when he came back, he was not completely unable to walk. Compared to his vocal cords, the injury on his feet was much lighter. He could walk with the help of crutches.
Seeing Hannibal typing this line of words on his phone, Issou did not know whether to laugh or cry. She touched her face and saw that he was looking at her with a little confusion. She said, "I'm just wondering if I really have a face that's easy to fool."
Lorna had said this before, and Wanda and Pietro also thought so. Now, even Hannibal had made up such a careless reason to fool her.
Not to mention, Hannibal's foot was injured. It was unlikely that he would walk back and forth for something so insignificant. Even if his foot wasn't injured, based on his personality, he wouldn't do something so inefficient.
Issou knew very well that Hannibal was only doing this because he was worried that it was not safe for her to walk home alone at night. After all, there had been a few murders recently, and they were serial murders. The modus operandi of each case was exactly the same.
Hannibal was not stupid. When he heard Issou's words, he knew that she had guessed the reason for his actions. However, he played dumb and typed a line of words on his phone: [Does being easy to fool equate to being cute?]
Seeing this line of words, Issou subconsciously looked up at Hannibal. Sure enough, she saw the same innocent look in his eyes. She could not help but laugh. She said, "Okay, being easy to fool equates to being cute."
Looking at Issou's expression that said, "I already know whether you admit it or not." Hannibal could not help but laugh. He thought to himself, since she already knows, what difference does it make whether I admit it or not?
Hannibal did not linger on this topic. Instead, he asked about something else: [Did something good happen today? You seem to be in a good mood.]
"How did you see through that?" Issou thought that of course something good had happened today, and it was not just one good thing. For example, the Spider-man with the baby voice turned out to be super cute. However, this was not something that could be casually mentioned.
Therefore, Issou said another good thing: "Our Chinese restaurant now has a total of three waiters. It will be easier in the future."
