Chapter 422 - 47: What She Believes is What Mortals See
Kuya stared blankly at ’Claw 13’ in front of her.
She had never imagined ’Claw 13’ would come back.
Indeed...
Are we fated to be connected?
Kuya was filled with secret delight at the bottom of her heart.
"Whatever you like."
"You pick the place."
Kuya uttered the words that were bound to be unforgettable for the rest of her life.
Jason nodded silently, then walked straight toward the fast-food restaurant nearby.
He hadn’t had the chance to explore the restaurants of Ang City yet.
And how could ’Claw 13,’ a member of the millennium-old ’Night Owl Court’ of Ang City, possibly ask Kuya about the locations of famous restaurants in Ang City?
Although the other person didn’t seem too bright, Jason wouldn’t deliberately expose certain matters.
Watching the direction Jason was heading, Kuya was stunned.
Because that fast-food restaurant was the central liaison center of the ’Holy Serpent Society.’
It was responsible for receiving and collecting various messages from all over, and then delivering them to the secret base of the ’Holy Serpent Society’ for screening.
Of course, most of the time, it was just a fast-food restaurant.
’Claw 13’ has also got this place under control?
Kuya was startled but then immediately smiled.
’Claw 13’ knew the entire members’ list of the ’Holy Serpent Society’ in Ang City, so knowing this place wasn’t strange at all.
As for why choose this place?
It naturally was to show goodwill towards the ’Holy Serpent Society’!
The ’Night Owl Court’ was only targeting the ’Sanctuary’ that broke the rules, not the ’Holy Serpent Society’ and the ’Shelter,’ and compared to the ’Shelter,’ which chose a neutral stance when facing the ’anomalies,’ the ’Night Owl Court’ preferred the ’Holy Serpent Society,’ which showed friendliness to the ’anomalies.’
Thinking of this, Kuya’s smile on her face became even brighter.
What she was most worried about was the hostility between the two organizations, which would make her job difficult.
But now?
There was no need to think about these things anymore.
However, what touched her most was the behavior of ’Claw 13.’
The ’Night Owl Court’ could have informed the ’Holy Serpent Society’ in a more direct way, but they chose such a subtle method, which must have been ’Claw 13’s suggestion!
Besides, ’Claw 13’ must have been waiting here for a long time.
Thinking this, Kuya suddenly spoke.
"Thank you, 13."
Faced with Kuya’s sudden gratitude, the expression behind Jason’s mask was one of surprise.
He was temporarily unclear on what was happening and remained silent out of habit.
Kuya didn’t need Jason’s response, she had long been accustomed to ’Claw 13’s silence.
She walked beside Jason, talking to herself.

"Thank you for doing so much because of me, for choosing to come to the ’Holy Serpent Society’s central intelligence station in Ang City and using such a subtle way to inform everyone about the stance of the ’Night Owl Court.’ But, won’t this affect your reputation within the ’Night Owl Court’?"
"If it does, please use the official way of the ’Night Owl Court’ to inform the ’Holy Serpent Society’ next time."
"I don’t want you to be criticized because of me."
Jason turned his head and looked at Kuya, who was lost in her own fantasies.
He really wanted to tell her that he was just here for a meal.
However, to maintain the persona of ’Claw 13,’ he could only nod slightly.
"Hmm." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
This response was neither an affirmation nor a denial.
It was merely non-committal.
Because, based on Jason’s rich experience with personnel dispatched from ’Cat Hole,’ he knew the vaguer he was, the more these people would give themselves a reasonable explanation.
Indeed, that was the case.
Kuya, hearing Jason’s response, immediately began to imagine abundantly.
Was he indicating he understood?
Or had he already endured pressures he shouldn’t have because of a man’s pride and wouldn’t speak of it?
Such a responsible man was truly fascinating!
Kuya’s face blushed again.
Then, she couldn’t help but quicken her pace, stepping forward to push open the door first.
At this moment, it was just the time for dinner.
The fast-food restaurant was crowded with numerous diners.
There were ordinary people and members of the ’Holy Serpent Society.’
Many ordinary people brightened up at the sight of Kuya.
Kuya’s looks could be said to be quite beautiful, and coupled with her professional attire and blushing face at this moment, she was truly enticing.
Members of the ’Holy Serpent Society,’ however, knew fully well what Kuya’s nature was; they lowered their heads even further, focusing on their meals.
Of course, this was before Jason walked in.
As Jason entered, these ’Holy Serpent Society’ members trembled like a sieve, especially the ordering staff near the counter who subconsciously reached for the shotgun hidden under the counter.
’Claw 13’!
Almost everyone thought of this code name, and then instinctively thought of that terrifying organization: ’Night Owl Court’!
What is he doing here?
Have we been exposed?
Has Kuya been kidnapped?
"This is my friend; we’re here to eat!"
Kuya said loudly to the ordering staff behind the counter.
"To eat, eat food?"
The ordering staff asked stutteringly.
"Of course, what else would we be here for?"
After speaking harshly, Kuya turned and smiled at Jason, "13, what do you want to eat?"
Jason’s gaze had locked onto the ordering screen the moment he entered the door.
Meal A: French fries + burger + medium soda.
Meal B: Chicken nuggets + burger + medium soda.
Meal C: French fries + chicken nuggets + burger + medium soda.
Without a doubt, Meal C was a combination of the first two, and his choice was naturally to...
Have them all!
"Meals A, B, and C, thirty of each."
Jason said.
The first meal shouldn’t be too much... as it might cause a bad impression.
One had to progress step by step to be able to use it persistently.
