Chapter 150 The Most Familiar Stranger
"Guest, here is your tea."
"Thanks."
Zuko respectfully served him the tea, looking quite professional. Kahn forced himself to maintain his composure and thanked him.
He took a small sip of hot tea, the familiar taste making him feel warm and fuzzy. However, looking at Airo and Zuko busy behind the scenes, Kahn really couldn't imagine what these two had gone through to end up like this.
If Ao Zai knew that these two had disgraced the Huo Lie Kingdom's royal family in such a way, he would probably be so angry that he would send men to attack Yong Gu City overnight and cut them into a thousand pieces.
Kahn couldn't help but smirk; the thought of it was quite amusing.
However, upon seeing the scar on Zu Kou's left eye, he understood that Zu Kou in this world had probably experienced the same thing and had likely been expelled from the Fire Kingdom as well.
Upon closer inspection, he also noticed that the Airo in this world looked more weathered than the Airo in his own world, probably because he had worried a lot about Zuko.
Is Zu Kou still following Ao Zai's orders to hunt down Avatar?
However, seeing that Zuko was in a peaceful state of mind, he felt that it probably wasn't him. Moreover, Ai Luo, who was making tea, looked very happy and seemed quite satisfied with the current situation.
Although he had no clue, Kahn was not in a hurry to find answers. While sipping tea and watching the two busy in the shop, he felt relaxed for the first time in a long time.
Despite being in a foreign land, he felt as if he had returned home.
They sat there leisurely all morning. As lunchtime approached, the number of people in the teahouse gradually decreased, leaving only Kahn and a few others.
At this moment, Zuko, carrying a plate, came to Aiolos's side and whispered:
"Uncle, it seems we're in trouble again. Two guests have been watching us. One is the girl sitting at the corner table, and the other is the man sitting at the second seat from the left. He's been watching us all morning."
"I suspect our identities have been discovered."
This wasn't Zu Kou being paranoid, because someone had already discovered their identities last time, and that person even forced them to fight in order to expose their identities. Fortunately, that person was eventually taken away by Dai Li.
But this time, two people were targeting them at the same time, which gave Zu Kou a major headache.
Upon hearing this, Airo stroked his chin and chuckled:
"I think that girl has been here for quite a while, but I feel like she's only interested in you."
"What?!"
Zuko was startled by Elo's words, and at that moment, the girl walked over and said to him while paying:
"Thank you for the tea. Um, may I know your name?"
"Forehead"
Zu Kou calmed himself down and, feigning composure, replied:
"My name is Li. My uncle and I are new to this place, so you may not have seen me before."
"Hello Li, my name is Jin. Actually, I wanted to ask..."
Seeing the two of them struggling to communicate, Airo smiled knowingly, then walked alone towards where Kahn was.
On the other side, Kahn watched with amusement as Zuko and the girl interacted at the counter. It seemed that Zuko was quite popular.
It's a pity he didn't have a camera, otherwise he would have secretly taken a few photos, whether to give them to the plum blossoms of this world or the plum blossoms of his own world, the scene would have been quite interesting.
However, just as he was engrossed in watching, a broad figure blocked his view. Airo came up to him and smiled:
"How do you find the tea, sir?"
Kahn replied with a smile:
"Actually, I'm not very good at drinking tea. It's just that one of my elders is particularly fond of it. During the time I lived with him, I gradually got used to the taste of tea."
"Once you get used to it, you'll gradually learn to appreciate it. I'm so glad that another young person has been able to experience the beauty of tea. I wish my nephew could be like you."
Airo chatted idly with Kahn with a smile, it was impossible to tell whether he had any ulterior motives.
He continued:
"You might not believe it, but for some reason I always feel like you look a bit like someone I know. It's like we've known each other forever."
This wasn't something he was making up; he genuinely felt that the young man in front of him looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't quite place him at the moment.
He had just said it casually, but the boy's reply left him stunned on the spot.
Kahn asked with a smile:
"Are you referring to my father, Tate, as an acquaintance?"
Although he hadn't mentioned his adoptive father in a long time, Kahn wasn't so far as to forget his biological father in this life.
His initial connection with Airo stemmed from the camaraderie between Tate and Airo.
Tate? My father?
Having not heard that familiar name for a long time, Airo was momentarily dazed, and memories of attacking Yonggu City resurfaced—an experience he could never forget.
In that battle, he not only lost his beloved son, but also many friends, including his good friend and excellent deputy, Tate.
The face of his old friend reappeared clearly before his eyes, gradually overlapping with the face of the boy in front of him. There was indeed an indescribable resemblance between the two in their brows. Only then did Ai Luo realize that the inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart came from this!
However, the boy in front of him was much more handsome than Tate.
At this point in the conversation, Airo realized that he must have been recognized by the person in front of him, but that was no longer important. As past memories gradually surfaced, more doubts arose in his mind.
"I remember Tate did have a child, but..."
He clearly remembered that Tate had asked him to take care of his wife and children before his sacrifice, but when he finally recovered from the pain of losing his son and remembered this promise, he learned that Tate's wife had hanged herself with her child after learning of her husband's sacrifice.
Airo voiced his question, and Kahn finally learned how he, or rather, the original owner of this world, had died.
From this perspective, his existence is indeed the fundamental reason why the two worlds have different development trajectories!
"I was the child who should have died, but in another world, I survived and was adopted by you."
Finally, Kahn got straight to the point:
"However, it might take some time to explain in detail, and this isn't a good place to talk, Uncle Airo. If you trust me, let's find another place to talk slowly."
Kahn's words sounded somewhat unbelievable, and indeed left Airo completely bewildered.
However, when he heard Kahn call him "Uncle Airo" so naturally, he felt an inexplicable sense of warmth, as if he really had a child with whom he spent every day.
Airo stroked his beard. Although the person before him was of unknown origin and his words lacked any basis, a voice inside him seemed to tell him that this person could be trusted.
So he nodded and smiled:
"Haha, it looks like this is going to be an unimaginable experience."
The best royal uncle who protects the world!
