When Chen Chong returned with honor, the atmosphere in another black car, which was in the same road, in the same direction, was particularly depressing and low.

Zhao Xiaokang looked at the rearview mirror. Although Du Wenlong, who was sitting in the back row, had his eyes closed, the bulging veins on his forehead were very obvious. This shows how angry the latter was in his heart.

"Brother Long, it's just a game. Don't compete with yourself too much." He comforted.

Du Wenlong did not answer, but just opened his eyes and looked at the scenery outside the window.

Zhao Xiaokang did not dare to disturb him. He drove the car carefully and tried to drive it as smoothly as possible to avoid arousing Du Wenlong's disgust. With his lead, several other cars carrying food city personnel in the rear did not dare to accelerate and followed honestly.

From a distance, their convoy is like a slow-moving black dragon, different from other vehicles.

"What's wrong with me asking you to check?" After a long time, Du Wenlong finally spoke and broke the deadlock, but his tone was extremely low, as if sand was rubbing against his throat, which sounded a little creepy.

Zhao Xiaokang was suddenly startled. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, so his hands did not tremble, causing the car body to become unstable. However, this was the first time he heard Du Wenlong making such a hoarse sound, which was really unfamiliar.

"About Chen Chong's background, you may be disappointed." He sorted out his thoughts and said, "This guy named Chen Chong was abandoned by his parents since he was a child and raised by his grandmother. After his grandmother passed away a few years ago, he went to Longjiang alone to work hard, saving some savings, but was deceived by an agent to open a restaurant in the food street."

"Foofing? Isn't it the expert Li Jianbang invited?" Du Wenlong turned his head slightly, as if he was a little interested.

"No." Zhao Xiaokang shook his head, "It's strange that when this guy first opened a restaurant on the food street, his business was a mess. Sometimes few people came to visit him a day, which was a total loss-making business."

"Hmm?" Du Wenlong frowned, and a trace of splendor flashed through his faint eyes.

Zhao Xiaokang knew what the former wanted to ask, and quickly said, "Brother Long, I am the same as you. I am very curious about how this guy rose up in a few months, and has even become a new generation of chef gods now! This is simply incredible! Could it be that there is any expert behind him to give me some advice?"

"Maybe..." Du Wenlong was drooping his eyelids and wondering what he was thinking, "Why did his parents abandon him?"

"I heard from the old man in the place where he was born that his parents seemed to have been in trouble back then, so they didn't dare to stay in their hometown for a long time. After handing Chen Chong to the old man, the couple left and there was no news since then. Some people said they went abroad, and some people said they might... "Zhao Xiaokang took the time to do a neck wiping, and the meaning was self-evident, "Anyway, he has no background."

Du Wenlong fell silent.

Can you kill ghosts without background? Can you rise like a comet without background?

This is obviously impossible!

Du Wenlong looked at Zhao Xiaokang without a trace. From the latter's perspective, Chen Chong did not have a background, but from his perspective, it was not that Chen Chong did not have a background, but that his background might be the same as himself, and belongs to the category that cannot be disclosed and no one believes in it.

There are too many scientific existences in this world that cannot be explained by science, and Du Wenlong is no longer surprised.

"What a tricky guy..." he murmured.

"Brother Long, what did you say? I didn't hear it clearly." Zhao Xiaokang looked at the heavy truck that was whizzing past just now, and the whistling sound waves still echoed in his ears.

"Nothing." Du Wenlong changed the topic expressionlessly, "How is the progress of the food street shares?"

"Haha, I'm planning to tell you." Zhao Xiaokang's lips raised: "Although I don't know why that guy in Jincheng went, the network he collected when he was with Li Jianbang before is still there. I contacted those stupid old guys as a wealthy businessman from other places yesterday, and they were eager to transfer shares in the food street."

"When can it be done?" Du Wenlong only cared about the results.

"I originally said today, but after they held the shareholders' meeting this morning, they postponed it until the day after the day after. The specific reason is not clear yet, but it doesn't matter. I believe that no one can reject this temptation at the price I gave." Zhao Xiaokang was full of confidence.

"No, I want to get more than half of the shares in the food street tomorrow!" Du Wenlong said firmly: "Raise the price for them again!"

"Brother Long, are you so anxious?" Zhao Xiaokang was stunned.

Du Wenlong was silent for a moment and said: "As long as the murderer is caught, with Chen Chong's appeal today, the rise of the food street is irreversible! So we must take over the food street as soon as possible!"

Zhao Xiaokang understood the meaning of the words, but what he didn't understand was why Du Wenlong insisted on taking over the food street? Wouldn't it be better to use this money to invest in the food city?

He didn't ask too much, nor did he dare to ask too much, because he knew very well that Du Wenlong was a person. If he couldn't achieve the desired goal, he would use some unconventional means, including...killing!

Although Zhao Xiaokang is also a ruthless person, frankly speaking, he cannot reach the cold and ruthless level of Du Wenlong.

"By the way, Brother Long, every night I always feel that something is wrong with our sixth floor. I can't tell you what's wrong."

"What about?" Du Wenlong lowered his eyelids, making people unable to see his eyes.

"For example... I always feel like someone is walking in the corridor in the middle of the night, but no matter whether I go out to check or ask the patrol security guards, there is no abnormality." Zhao Xiaokang said.

"Maybe you're too tired recently and have hallucinations." Du Wenlong looked at his crossed fingers.

"Hope, right?" Zhao Xiaokang laughed at himself, and then said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Brother Long, do you think it was me who got into something unclean?"

"Do you... believe it?" Du Wenlong still didn't look up.

"Of course... I don't believe it." Zhao Xiaokang laughed, and used force to increase the accelerator. The car instantly accelerated and ran, leaving the convoy behind far behind.

The street lights were getting brighter, the engine roared, and the red taillights pulled long in the evening and disappeared into the tunnel ahead.

...

In the driving business car, everyone thought Chen Chong was too tired and was resting, so no one disturbed him or chatted, and the car was quiet.

In fact, Chen Chong was just checking the mission rewards. At the end of the competition, the reward prompt flashed a few times, but what happened later made him no chance to check it.

[Congratulations on completing the ordinary task "Chef God's Battle for the World", and obtaining a "Soul-Suppressing Necklace", and the reward has been deposited in the prop warehouse.]

“Not a recipe?”

He was slightly stunned and quickly opened the [Props Warehouse], and at the end of all the existing rewards, an extra card was released.

The card emits a dark red light, not only without any gorgeous feeling, but instead makes him feel a little depressed, as if the card is condensed from blood.

Select the card, enlarge the card, and occupy the entire field of view.

The card is divided into two parts, one up and the other is a three-dimensional dynamic picture of a pure black necklace, with small runes engraved on the surface that you can vaguely see the runes squirming slightly, like living things.

Apart from that, nothing, including pendants.

If you don’t look carefully, this necklace will obviously fit the word “cheap”, which is very similar to street stalls that cost two yuan per person.

The lower half of the card is more ordinary, just a text description.

[Suppress the soul, guard yin and yang, protect peace, and transform life and death. (Special reminder: the wearer must inject his own blood.)]

"What a mess." Chen Chong didn't understand what the text meant, and wondered if he would trigger a special task like the last time he obtained the "Mysterious Poster".

Therefore, he did not take it out immediately and waited for the situation to be determined after he returned.

Then, he opened [Doom Value] again and found that after completing this ordinary task, the game directly rewarded more than 3,000 doom values, which is unprecedented.

"Sure enough, as the difficulty of the mission continues to increase, the doom value you gain is getting more and more. The only regret is that after you get the title of Chef God, you did not unlock the achievement of "Senior Chef". Does this game of Doom Destiny look down on the real chef God? Yes, it must be like this."

Chen Chong felt uncomfortable.

You know, although he has a memory recipe, his ability to win the chef is also closely related to his own efforts.

"Forget it, this kind of existence beyond cognition cannot be treated with a normal mind."

He sighed secretly, and he really fell asleep not long after quitting the game of doom.

…

"Chen Chong, wake up!"

I don’t know how long it took, Chen Chong was woken up by a hateful voice. He opened his eyes in a vague way and was startled. He saw Li Xiang’s hair fluttering and holding the car window with both hands!

"I'm going crazy."

As soon as he blurted out this sentence, Chen Chong became completely embarrassed because the motivation for him to say this sentence was that he still thought the car was still driving around the city at high speed. Under such circumstances, Li Xiang seemed too terrifying to appear outside the car.

But the fact is that the car has stopped and the surrounding environment is still familiar, although it is dark.

It turned out that I had already arrived at the food street.

"Are you sick?" Perhaps because Chen Chong's identity has changed, Li Xiang just muttered quietly and stopped caring, and continued, "It's been ten minutes. Everyone saw that you were sleeping soundly, so they didn't call you."

"Where are them?" Chen Chong rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked out the window. Fatty Li and others had disappeared. However, it was very windy tonight and it was chilly.

Looking at the date again, it turns out that today is the beginning of autumn.

"Uncle Li and his friends have prepared dinner, saying they would have a good time tonight, and even the driver went there." Li Xiang checked around and returned to the familiar place again. She did not look too happy, but was very alert and always paid attention to the changes around her.

Chen Chong took all this into his eyes and knew that she was afraid of the appearance of the mysterious murderer.

"You are quite brave, you are actually here alone."

"You don't even look at who this girl is." Li Xiang didn't know why Fat Li and others were relieved that she was waiting for Chen Chong to wake up by the car, but she only knew that they were a group of old guys without any sympathy!

Of course, if Li Xiang knew that Fatty Li and others knew Chen Chong better than her, perhaps the little uneasiness in her heart would no longer exist.

"Well...let's go." Chen Chong stretched hard, picked up his luggage in the trunk, and walked side by side with Li Xiang to the depths of the food street.

"Chen Chong, you will stay in the food street."

On the quiet street, Li Xiang suddenly fell behind Chen Chong and asked in a low voice.

"What do you think?"

Chen Chong asked without looking back.

"I.."

Li Xiang's eyes rarely showed a hint of panic, but because Chen Chong did not look back, he naturally did not notice it.

"I have no idea."

"Do you have no confidence in me?"

Chen Chong lit a cigarette, and the smoke drifted away, drifting behind him with the wind. He heard two "cough cough" sounds, probably choking Li Xiang very hard.

"This has nothing to do with confidence."

Li Xiang rubbed her uncomfortable nose and glanced at the former resentful.
