A Former Police Officer Who Died And Get A Second Life! Chapter 187: The Annoying Stranger

"Ahh, that’s so good," the man said with a grin. "Talking back to like that... I love it."

It was honestly disgusting.

Qiong Xing had no intention of judging other people’s preferences.

But that only applied when he wasn’t involved himself.

Why did he have to deal with soone who got happy just because he talked back rudely?

Because of the irritation, Albe started biting his nails.

"Hey, hey, tell your na," the red haired man said.

"It’s Tutu," Qiong Xing replied calmly.

"Pfft!"

Albe who had just been full of anger suddenly burst out laughing at the obvious fake na.

The red-haired man also seed to realize it was a lie and kept insisting that Qiong Xing tell him his real na.

"It’s Baobao."

"No way~"

"Goudan."

"Nope~"

"Then... Dandan."

"You just said ’then’!"

Even Qiong Xing thought he was being way too random, but seriously thinking about it felt like a waste of ti.

"I simply don’t want to tell you," Qiong Xing said flatly. "You should be able to understand that."

"Eh~ impossible," the man replied casually. "People always tell to read the room, but like... pfft, how do you even read air? Doesn’t that sound weird?"

"...."

Both of them fell silent.

This was exhausting.

Qiong Xing didn’t even want to deal with him anymore.

"Hey, hey, aren’t you hungry?" the man asked.

"Why don’t you make a mud ball sowhere and eat that?" Qiong Xing replied coldly.

"Eh~ is that tasty?"

Of course not!

"...Then I’ll give you sothing good," Qiong Xing said calmly. "So could you please leave for today?"

"Whoa, suddenly polite~ what is it? What are you giving ?"

"It’s sothing very suitable for you," Qiong Xing replied. "But I can’t give it to you unless you promise."

"I will, I will! Give it to !"

"Alright then... go fetch!"

Qiong Xing took sothing out of his bag, pulled his arm back, and threw it high into the air.

The idiot chased after it eagerly, and Qiong Xing and Albe watched him go.

"...What did you throw?" Albe asked.

"A bone," Qiong Xing answered.

"...I see... wait, is he a dog?!"

"That’s rude to dogs," Qiong Xing replied calmly.

"Yeah... you’re right."

Comparing that idiot to a dog was wrong.

Dogs were cute and loyal to their owners.

That guy was just a nuisance.

Ten minutes with him was already the limit.

"I’m tired," Qiong Xing said. "Let’s stop sowhere for tea before going ho."

"Yeah," Albe agreed. "By the way, what kind of bone was that?"

"...Deer, maybe? Or rabbit... or bird. Ah... but judging by the thickness, it was probably deer."

Qiong Xing rembered putting it in his bag, but he couldn’t clearly rember what kind of bone it was.

"Why were you even carrying sothing like that?" Albe asked.

"I planned to use it," Qiong Xing replied. "It’s good for making broth."

"Broth? What’s that?"

"It’s like... the flavor of at... extracted into liquid."

"Can’t you just use at?"

It wasn’t that he couldn’t.

But at was sothing you ate, while broth was sothing you drank.

Still, Qiong Xing wasn’t skilled enough to explain it properly, so they decided he would just make it next ti instead.

"That sounds good," Qiong Xing said. "If the at is cooked until it’s soft, I might be able to eat more too."

"...Right."

Qiong Xing liked grilled at, but as a human, his jaw wasn’t that strong.

Eating thick chewy at in the sa amount as everyone else was hard on both his stomach and his jaw.

Feeling like he had solved one of his problems, Qiong Xing smiled happily.

Albe gave a half-hearted "That’s great" in response.

"Then let’s go buy what we need," Qiong Xing said. "What do you like, Albe?"

"Hmm... at?"

"Youth really is simple," Qiong Xing said. "Then let’s go to the forest. Please teach how to hunt."

"...Didn’t you go before?" Albe asked.

"We got interrupted by those brothers, so there were no animals," Qiong Xing replied. "Well, I didn’t really know how to hunt anyway, so it worked out."

"And you still went!?"

Since Joa had been there, Qiong Xing had assud he would teach him if needed.

What he didn’t know was that Joa had deliberately stayed silent because he didn’t want to teach him.

"Maybe I should prepare a bow," Qiong Xing said thoughtfully. "But using sothing unfamiliar might be troubleso. Magic could work too... or maybe traps?"

"...Please choose the safest thod," Albe said with a sigh.

Qiong Xing asked with excitent, while Albe who is already giving up let out a long tired breath.

"Have you seen my younger brother!?"

"...."

"...."

The man rushed up to them shouting and both Qiong Xing and Albe silently looked in the direction where the red-haired man had run off chasing the bone earlier.

"That idiot! Just because he finally got to co to town, he got excited and ran off sowhere!"

"That sounds difficult," Qiong Xing said calmly. "Good luck finding your lost brother."

"And don’t show up in front of us again," Albe added coldly. "I don’t care if he’s your brother or not, he’s nothing but trouble."

Ah.

"I want to say the sa thing!" the man snapped. "...Wait. You... did you et my brother? When?"

Ah... there it was.

Qiong Xing had told Albe about what happened before, but today was the first ti they had actually t that younger brother.

If they said they had t him, it could only be today.

Seeing Albe’s "I ssed up" expression, Qiong Xing gave a small, helpless smile and briefly explained what had just happened.

"He kept calling people pets," Qiong Xing said calmly. "But I think he should realize that he is the one more suited to being a pet."

"...."

"...."

Albe and the man both fell silent.

Qiong Xing had no idea that, in their minds, they were thinking: This guy says the most brutal things with such a gentle smile...
