I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon

Chapter 132 - Before the Feast (2)

Chapter 132: Before the Feast (2)

It was morning. Ling Pingan yawned and walked to the rooftop.

He opened the stove and looked at the charcoal fire inside it. It was almost extinguished.

He patted the tinfoil, and there was the sound of gravy inside.

“Not bad! Not bad!” He took out his phone and looked at the time. It was already seven o’clock.

The piece of meat had been roasted for almost nine hours. It should be ready to be taken out after about another two hours.

Therefore, he added two pieces of applewood.

At this moment, his phone rang. It was a video call request.

He answered it casually and saw his aunt appear on the screen.

“Brat!” His aunt still hadn’t changed. She was still the same as when she was seventeen or eighteen years old. He didn’t know how she took care of herself. “How’s the preparation for the crayfish feast going?”

“Aunty…” Ling Pingan smiled and said, “You should be able to eat now when you arrive!”

“That’s good!” His aunt said, “I’ll be at Jiangcheng station at 8:20 a.m. Hurry up and come pick me up!”

She raised a bag and showed it off. “Little Pingan, I brought you a lot of good stuff in Beizhou!”

Ling Pingan watched and nodded repeatedly.

He turned off the video call and shook his head. Then, he walked to the kitchen and took out the wine that was sealed, after it was brewed last autumn.

He did not like to drink because his alcohol tolerance was too low. He would often get drunk after three glasses even when this kind of self-brewed wine was not very strong.

However, his aunt was a heavy drinker. She especially liked to drink the wine that he had made. Every time she came back, she would drink all the wine that he had made before she was willing to leave.

Therefore, every autumn, Ling Pingan would go to the vineyard in the countryside and pick twenty to thirty kilograms of grapes to make wine.

He sealed the wine in a wooden barrel and placed it in the shade of the kitchen. The wine which had been stored for almost a year was brought out and placed on the dining table in the living room.

Ling Pingan took a cork opener and opened the cork of the wooden barrel.

A rich fruit fragrance assailed his nostrils.

It was not only the fragrance of the grapes but also a refreshing wine fragrance.

Ling Pingan poured it out in a small cup and placed it in front of his eyes to observe it.

“Very good!” He nodded.

The wine in the cup was bright red. It was as beautiful as red jade under the morning sun!

Ling Pingan took a sip. The wine’s fragrance was rich and sweet. It was best to drink with meals and relieve boredom!

Meow!

The kitten, Bastet was on the stairs without him noticing. It smelled the fragrance of the wine and tried its best to curry favor with Ling Pingan.

“Little greedy cat!” Ling Pingan smiled. He took out a small plate and gave it about three milliliters. “Little kid shouldn’t drink too much!”

Slurp! Slurp!

The Kitten Bastet quickly finished the wine on the plate, and then looked at Ling Pingan pitifully.

Ling Pingan had no choice but to give it a few more milliliters, and then he covered his glass. “Not too much. Not too much!”

… … ..

A high-speed train slowly stopped at Jiangcheng station.

Situ He and Xia Ping immediately went up and stood at the door of the train.

Cluck!

The door opened, and an old man with a cane walked out.

“Commander in Chief!” Situ He immediately walked towards him and saluted.

“I’m Xia Ping, director of Jiangcheng Sub-bureau.” Xia Ping approached and saluted.

“Situ, Director Xia!” The old man reached out his hand and shook hands with the two of them. Then, he said, “Let’s go back to the sub-bureau first!”

“Just in time…” he said to Xia ping, “Director Xia, please make a simple summary of the situation in Guangnan!”

“It’s my honor!” Xia Ping said excitedly.

Therefore, under the special arrangement of the high-speed railway station, they took the elevator and walked out from the safe express passage of the high-speed railway station.

There was already a long official car waiting at the entrance of the tunnel.

Xia Ping and Situ He immediately went forward and opened the door for the old man.

… ..

“Little greedy cat…” Ling Pingan looked at the drunk kitten and smiled as he picked it up.

This guy’s alcohol tolerance was even worse than his.

She only took only less than ten milliliters and was about to collapse.

“Let’s go!” He held the kitten in his arms and walked down the stairs. “We should go and pick up that annoying aunt!”

It was almost 7:30 a.m.

He closed the shop door, held the kitten in his arms, called an e-hailing taxi, and went straight to the high-speed railway station.

The high-speed railway station in Jiangcheng City was located in the suburbs of the north of the city, so they had to cross half of Jiangcheng city to get there.

Not long after the kitten, Bastet got on the car, she fell asleep on Ling Pingan’s body.

She slept all the way to the high-speed railway station.

Ling Pingan had no choice but to shake her up after getting off the train.

She was a little angry about getting out of bed. After being shaken awake, she bared its teeth and looked fierce. Seeing that it was Ling Pingan, she immediately calmed down and began to act cute. She even stuck out her tongue and licked the back of her owner’s hand.

“Hehe…” Ling Pingan teased her and carried her to the exit. At the same time, he looked at his phone.

It was already eight o’clock.

He found a shady place near the exit and sat down while he swiped his phone and waited.

… … ..

“Weiwei… Weiwei…” after Li Anan shook Chu Weiwei, who had been sleeping soundly, since she got on the train, and said, “We have arrived in Jiangcheng city!”

At this moment, the announcement sounded on the high-speed train.

“Dear passengers, the train is arriving at Jiangcheng city’s North Station!”

“Jiangcheng city is a coastal heavy industrial city in Guangnan. It was known as Baoan in ancient times. The famous patriotic poet Wen Tianxiang once wrote the immortal poem “Sailing on Lonely Ocean” here…”

“Since modern times, Jiangcheng city has become the largest heavy industrial manufacturing and processing center in Guangnan…”

Chu Wei opened her eyes slightly and was a little dazed. Clearly, she was still jet-lagged and had not recovered.

“Are we in Jiangcheng City?” She narrowed her eyes and shook her head forcefully.

“Yes!” Li Anan said, “We’re already in Jiangcheng City!”

She rubbed her fists and said, “That brat should be here too!”

“Remember to add each other’s contact number later!”

Chu Weiwei chuckled helplessly.

The two of them started to pack their things. It was mainly Li Anan’s things. There were too many of them!

There were two suitcases alone!

There were also more than a dozen bags of various sizes!

Both of them tied some bags onto the suitcases with all their might before they were barely prepared to get off the train.

The train slowly stopped at the station. Li Anan took the lead and pushed the suitcases and carried the bags out of the train.

Chu Weiwei was slightly slower and was squeezed in the crowd behind her. After a while, she dragged her luggage out of the train.

Both of them followed the crowd and walked out of the station together.

Just as they walked out of the station, Li Anan saw her nephew squatting in a corner and swiping his phone.

“Little Pingan! Little Pingan!” She waved her hand loudly.

Chu Weiwei also looked over curiously. Hence, she saw a young man slowly standing up at the corner of the exit. He wore a pair of normal-looking glasses. He was not tall and was at most 1.75 meters tall. His appearance was ordinary too. If there was anything special about him, it was that he was holding a small black kitten in his hand.

Chu Weiwei did not know why but she felt that there was something wrong with that little kitten.

However, she did not know what was wrong.

“Aunty!” The young man walked over and smiled honestly. “Why didn’t you rest for a few days before coming over?”

“Rest for a few days?” Chu Weiwei heard the captain say with slight anger, “You little brat, are you up to something again?”

“How would I dare?” The young man chuckled and raised the little black cat in his hand. It was obvious that he was trying to change the topic. “Aunty, look, this is the pet I got recently. It’s very cute, right?”

And the captain took the bait. The moment she saw the little cat, she could not take her eyes off it.

She immediately snatched it over, hugged it, and started stroking it. “What’s its name?” The captain asked.

“Bastet!” The young man said with a smile.

“Bastet?” Chu Weiwei frowned slightly. “The ancient Egyptian cat goddess?”

“Yes!” Only then did the young man notice her. He replied, “When I picked it up one day, I happened to watch an Egyptian news, so I casually gave it a foreign name!”

“Oh…” Chu Weiwei nodded slightly.

“Little Pingan!” At this moment, the captain finally remembered and hurriedly introduced both of them. “This is my colleague, Weiwei!”

The young man was very polite and immediately bowed. “Hello, Miss Weiwei! I’m Ling Pingan!”

“Hello, I’m Chu Weiwei…” Chu Weiwei looked at this young man, who did not seem to have any special characteristics, but she felt a sense of familiarity.

However, she didn’t know that Ling Pingan recognized her the moment he saw her.

“Isn’t this the lucky one?” He muttered in his heart, “How can this little girl use her true appearance when she is playing a game?”

At first, he had always thought that the lucky one he met in the game was someone that had been created.

Now, it seemed that this little girl was naive.

However, he did not want to expose her.

The game was the game, and reality was reality. He had always been able to distinguish between the two.

… … … … ..

On the surveillance screen, the scene of the exit of the high-speed rail station appeared.

Looking at the target on the screen, he took the initiative to take the luggage from Li Anan and Chu Weiwei, then dragged the luggage.

Li Anan even carried the cat goddess.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

“It seems that the target is just as we guessed…”

“He has something to worry about!”

That was the result of all the profilers of the Blackguard,s who had profiled repeatedly.

The target was a god with an unknown status. For some reason, he chose to keep his human body and live in Jiangcheng City like a mortal.

As a god, he was ruthless and cold.

That was something that Situ He and Zhang Hui had proven.

It was also something that the werewolf clan had proven with their blood!

There was even the Prince of Hell the day before yesterday as proof.

But he still had a human side.

That was the best news!

They were not afraid that he was too mighty, but they were afraid that he had no humanity. An existence that had no humanity and had great power would seriously threaten the entire world.

Now it was good that he had someone he concerns!

The next step was to test how deep his concerns and ties were.

Li Shouyi took off his marshal uniform and instructed the person beside him, “Get ready. I will personally visit them later…”

“Yes!”
