Demon hunter's Cooking Manual-Chapter 1106 - 75: A Glance Back at the Previous Life!

Stalker?

After confirming this idea, Hui Lijing’s eyes lit up.

Such tangible glow could not be concealed even by her long and thick bangs.

Jason also noticed the change in the female detective.

Subconsciously, he evaluated her.

And at this moment, the female detective’s lips were already curled up in excitement.

For the female detective, she never worried about accidents.

What she worried about was the ’case’ being ’utterly ordinary’.

Any sort of accident meant ’clues’!

Seizing such clues, and then, taking them out—this might be the simplest way to solve the entire ’case’.

This was what her teacher had told her when she became a detective.

Hui Lijing had always kept it in mind.

So, as Hui Lijing was driving, she reached under the seat.

The next moment—

A submachine gun appeared in her hand.

This was the weapon she reequipped herself with after realizing that conventional firearms were not enough to deal with unexpected situations.

Not just the submachine gun in her hands.

In the trunk, she had also prepared a rocket launcher.

Jason’s words, ’Small caliber not working? Then try the big one!’ were etched in her memory.

"Let’s give them a show!"

Hui Lijing said this, about to turn around and shoot, but was stopped by a look from Jason.

"What’s wrong, Jason?"

Hui Lijing asked, puzzled.

She knew Jason was not someone who fretted over things, so there must be a reason for stopping her.

"Play the long game to catch the big fish."

Jason replied tersely.

"Understood."

Hui Lijing nodded in agreement.

Although she thought it unnecessary, she respected Jason’s opinion.

After all, she was just a newcomer to the ’Mystical Side’ of the ’Inside World’, a greenhorn.

Leave the expertise to the experts.

Hui Lijing immediately put away the submachine gun and once again looked forward.

Of course, Hui Lijing glanced at the rearview mirror from time to time.

The stalker was very professional, and if she hadn’t detected their presence early, it would have been difficult to notice she was being followed.

But how had Jason discovered them?

Perception?

Intuition?

Or skill?

Thinking about it, the female detective got excited again.

Because if it was a skill, it meant she could learn it.

She’d ask Jason about it later!

Having settled on this, the female detective began to focus on driving.

Jason, meanwhile, sat comfortably in the back seat, with no intention of looking back.

Because Jason knew very well where the followers were from.

The Hanakaiin Family!

The smell of the ’blessing stones’, the food, was just too obvious.

If it were only one blessing stone, Jason might not be sure.

But when the three people in the car all carried blessing stones, Jason could determine—they were from the Hanakaiin Family. Hanakaiin Haru had mentioned that the ’blessing stone’ was a stone blessed in a centuries-old temple that could effectively avoid malicious surveillance and scare off most ordinary demons, and even bring luck to the wearer if their fate matched.

Therefore, it was popular among most people from the ’Mystical Side’ of the ’Inside World’.

However, ’blessing stones’ were not easy to obtain.

On the island, the only organizations with a large number of ’blessing stones’ aside from the Hanakaiin Family were Tongshou Temple.

These were the exact words of Hanakaiin Haru.

The latter, Jason had confirmed as false.

But the former?

Jason was sure it was true.

Because the old Monk of Tongshou Temple had said the same thing.

As for the ’blessing stones’ of Tongshou Temple?

The last Master of Tongshou Temple was just too kind.

Not only did he help others through dangers, but he also gave away ’blessing stones’ from time to time.

Simply put, he gave away everything.

Indeed, it wasn’t just the ’blessing stones’.

The vast family estate of Tongshou Temple was also entirely given away by that Master.

If it weren’t for the admonition of the Master before him, that Master would have likely given away the whole of Tongshou Temple.

Jason didn’t comment on this.

Everyone has their own way of living.

But he truly felt pity.

If Tongshou Temple were still as it was, he probably would have gladly accepted the title of ’Master Tongshou Temple’, and it wasn’t just because of the ’food’ the temple had saved for hundreds of years; he simply liked the heritage.

But now?

A Tongshou Temple without heritage is better left to the exceptionally talented old Monk to guard.

Him?

He lacked that ability.

And he lacked that Talent.

He was just an ordinary, unremarkable man.

Not only did he love to eat, but he could also eat.

Such a huge estate was beyond his management.

He didn’t share Hanakaiin Haru’s desire to prove herself.

And certainly not the ’ambition’ of other Hanakaiin Family branches.

As long as no one disturbed his meals, that was enough.

Jason thought so simply.

Two cars ahead, with the stalker’s car behind.

Shortly, when Uesugi’s car turned into a street block, the tracking car stopped.

The sign on the side of the road was clear—

Private property, no trespassing.

"Sss!"

"Is this entire area property of the Uesugi Family?"

Hui Lijing took in a breath of cold air as she looked at the vast expanse of buildings that seemed to stretch on endlessly.

The female detective never knew that in the middle of the city, there could be such a gigantic private estate.

Just now, when they parked, she thought they had come to a new block.

"It’s all from the ancestral blessing. Me, lacking in capability, never expanded the estate one bit; I can only guard what’s here for future generations."
