Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 104 Todd
The man who came was a very sturdy giant, which was consistent with the stereotype of hunters held by most civilians. Coupled with the long and narrow scar extending from his brow to the side of his face, he looked even more fierce.

By the unique loud voice, Lin Lin recognized the other party. It was the gunner who was with him when he fought against Feng Shanlong.

During the fleet's previous training, Lin Lin had some understanding of this brother.

The gunner's name is Todd, and he is less than 30 years old. He is already a four-star gunner and a hunter with considerable potential. He and the insect stick user named Tolo have formed a team and have been active in Rocklark for the past year.

By the way, Tolo looked like a bug stick user, but in fact he was a versatile man who was good at light weapons. During the training period alone, Lin Lin had seen him use weapons such as a one-handed sword and double swords, but he chose to use the bug stick on the day of the battle.

Todd was obviously a little surprised to meet Lin Lin while shopping. He laughed and wanted to pull Lin Lin out for a drink.

We are all comrades who have experienced life and death together, so shouldn’t we have a good drink to enhance our friendship?
Lin Lin was a little embarrassed. "But Brother Todd, there's a dinner party tonight. I've drunk too much now. What are we going to do at night?"

Todd scratched the back of his head and belatedly realized what was happening.

"Ahaha, then let's not drink anymore. I'll treat you to a meal! I've been in Rocklark for almost a year, so I know all the good food here!"

To be honest, Lin Lin was also quite curious about what kind of special food there was in Locklark. After coming to this world, the most common thing in his life was various barbecues.

Following Todd around in circles, Lin Lin saw a rather small shop. However, although the shop was small, there were quite a few customers waiting around. As for why there were so many people around, Lin Lin knew the answer with just a sniff.

Good wine needs no bush, and the same goes for delicious food.

Just smelling the rich and unique aroma, Lin Lin couldn't tell what kind of food Todd brought him to eat. It smelled like meat, but there were also some other unfamiliar aromas.

Todd introduced Lin Lin with a proud look on his face:
"This is a very popular pie here in Rocklake. I heard that it spread slowly because it was simple to make and was particularly suitable for the desert environment."

"I brought you to this shop because, in my personal experience, they're the most generous with their spices in the entire city. That smell, tsk tsk, you can smell it too, right?"

There were not many employees in the shop, but there were many customers. Although they were busy, their output still could not meet the demand. So while waiting, Todd introduced Lin Lin to this pie called "Kumaki".

"First, spread out a large pancake. Then, chop the sandfish meat, ghost onions, tropical pineapple, colorful bell peppers, etc., mix them together, spread them on the pancake, sprinkle with spices, and then cover it with another pancake. After pinching the two pancakes together, the pie is ready."

"Then we build a fire on the sand. When it dies down, we bury the pie in the hot ashes. The residual heat will simmer the pie until it's cooked. After a while, a golden pie will be freshly baked."

"Let me tell you, this pancake is much more substantial than the food I brought with me, and it tastes pretty good. Since I came to Rocklark, I basically don't eat the food I brought with me anymore."

As he spoke, Todd subconsciously wiped the corner of his mouth to make sure that his saliva was not dripping, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Lin's Adam's apple also rolled. It was not because Todd's description was so tempting, but mainly because the aroma in the air was so strong. There were also many impatient customers here who bought the food and started eating it on the spot, which made the smell in the air even more tempting.

Finally it was their turn. Todd said something to the clerk, and Lin Lin stared at the golden grilled meat naan in his hand, which was as big as two of his faces. He then looked at other customers carrying bags of pies cut into small pieces, and fell into a brief contemplation.

"Hey, eating like them is too petty. I have always eaten like this. Don't forget, we are hunters!"

Lin Lin watched as Todd bit a hole in the round pancake in a rather unrefined manner, his cheeks puffed out as he spoke incoherently to himself. "That's right."

Lin Lin grinned and took a bite like Todd, "Ah!" He felt the fresh juice burst in his mouth instantly, with an aroma so rich that it was almost pungent. Combined with the slightly burnt and hardened bread, he felt a real sense of satisfaction in one bite.

"Huh? Lin Lin? Why are you here?"

Lin Lin was just about to follow Todd to "check in" at the next food spot when he unexpectedly saw a man at the end of the line. He was wearing a heavy alloy armor and a huge sword slung across his back. The customers in front wanted him to move to the front of the line, but he firmly waved his hand to refuse.

"Brev? When did you get back?"

"Just got back. I didn't expect Fengshanlong to come early this year. Luckily I didn't miss the Harvest Festival."

"Well, I wanted to let them have a taste of the good stuff here, so I didn't even have time to take off my gear before I lined up here!"

He had invited his family here because of the Harvest Festival. It would be very disappointing if they arrived and found that the Harvest Festival was over.

Lin Lin looked back at the unprepossessing little shop in surprise. It was amazing! It really built its reputation on quality.

"Are you Brave?"

Todd next to him suddenly blinked, as if he remembered something, and looked at the hunter with a little sympathy. Compared with him, his figure was slender.

Before Brave could ask, Lin Lin introduced:
"This is Todd, the four-star gunner. We met during the fight against the Peak Dragon."

After the two men greeted each other, Brave thought of Todd's look just now and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

"Brother Todd, have you heard of me?"

Todd scratched his bald head. "Ah, I heard your captain mention it. He said you almost ran away and he wanted to teach you a lesson."

Brave's expression froze instantly, and he stood there motionless, looking like he was dead.

Why, having clearly forgotten about it, did she remind him right after he came back?

His lips trembled and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Pills, pills are spicy!

Lin Lin patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "Actually, I told the president about this when I just got back. Don't panic, it's not a big deal."

"You've long been qualified to accept emergency commissions. This time, at most, you'll be found guilty of a procedural violation. It won't be too serious."
