Chapter 14 My Friend's Mother

The "scavengers" acted quickly.
After Link gave the address, there was a knock on the door of the apartment not long after.

When Link reached the door and opened it, he saw a thin old man wearing a tight black Tang suit and a topaz ring on his finger.
and two strong men in black uniforms carrying suitcases.

They all wore masks and rubber gloves.
Link turned slightly to allow these "professionals" to come in.
After they entered the room, they looked around the furnishings in the room.

I saw the slightly messy living room, the scratched sofa and blanket, and the bumpy wooden floor.

The thin old man walked up to Link and raised two fingers in a hoarse and low voice.
"You know the rules. Collect the bodies and restore the place to its original state. Two gold coins."

Hearing the old man's words, Link took out two heavy gold coins with intricate and gorgeous patterns engraved on the surface from his pocket and placed them in the old man's open palm.
The thin old man who received the reward smiled, revealing his yellow teeth, and stretched out his hand to stroke the lines on the surface of the gold coin.
“Thank you for your patronage.”

After confirming that everything was correct, he turned around and spoke to the two strong men who were standing there motionless.
"What are you waiting for? Start working."

Hearing this, the strong men took out various tools from their suitcases.
After a while, Link saw two people walking out, one in front and one behind, carrying a long body bag.

Needless to say, the one lying inside is undoubtedly the nightingale.

The messy living room was cleaned spotlessly, and the faint blood stains on the floor were also cleaned up by the chemical reagents and the hard work of these "scavengers".

In short, almost everything here seemed to have returned to the time before Nightingale came.

As the strong men were leaving with their bags, the thin old man suddenly turned around, his cloudy eyes gleaming with wisdom, and he spoke to Link,
"Young man, you look unfamiliar. What's your name?"

Link thought for a moment, then spoke directly.
"Bonnies Double Eagle."

"Nice name, if you need anything else you can contact this number."

The thin old man handed Link a black business card and then left.

Link took the card in his hand and examined it carefully: there was only a very simple row of gold-plated characters and numbers on it.
After putting the card away, Link walked into the apartment, began to wash up, and prepared to greet today's "work" with a good and excellent mental attitude.

……

"Package delivery~(￣▽￣～)~"

Standing at the door of 117A Blake Street, Link gently pressed the doorbell on the door.
The crisp doorbell sound also made the people in the house run out in a hurry.
With a creak, the door opened and a beautiful figure quietly appeared.

She has smooth hair, healthy wheat-colored skin, and a full body like a ripe peach. She is protected by a white sports vest, and her blue-gray yoga pants outline a unique round beauty.

Before Link could say anything, a loud noise came from upstairs in the house.

The beauty in front of him frowned, turned her head, and shouted upstairs,

"Peter! What are you doing again!"

Hearing this, the door upstairs was opened a moment later, and Peter Parker, wrapped in a quilt, showed a sweaty young face with an awkward smile.

"Sorry, Aunt Mei, I was careless just now..."

But after seeing Link, Peter Parker quickly spoke up.
"Mr. Link! Long time no see!"

Aunt Mei was a little confused and couldn't help asking,
"Do you know each other?"

“…(●—●)”

Peter didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't say that after fighting with the criminals, he ordered a takeaway from Mr. Link who could turn into a fighter jet...

"I met Peter by chance when I was working outside." Link smiled and changed the subject.
"Madam looks very young, right? I thought she was Peter's sister. She never told me."

"Oops~"

Facing Link's sweet words and his handsome face full of oriental manly charm,

Aunt Mei, who was used to being reserved and had not been exposed to such a majestic masculine aura for a long time, immediately blushed on her cheeks.
Just like that, Aunt May invited Link, Peter's friend, into the house and sat on the sofa to chat happily.
Peter, who was trying to sneak out, was caught red-handed. Aunt May changed her shy and gentle appearance and glared at Peter,

"Where are you going now! Can't you see there are guests at home? Why don't you go and get two glasses of water?"

Then, she turned her head and smiled apologetically.

"I'm sorry, I haven't disciplined this child well on weekdays."

After putting down the courier box, Link naturally took Aunt Mei's hand.
Feeling the smooth and delicate hand moving constantly in his palm, Link smiled and spoke,
"It's okay. Young people are more energetic."

"I know a little bit about Chinese medicine and can read palms. How about I help Madam?"

"Why is this so embarrassing?"

Link lifted up one of Aunt May's hands and stroked its surface with his own large hand.

Aunt Mei felt the hot palms wrapped around her. Although she was a little shy and wanted to pull out, she still couldn't break free from Link's strong hands.
"Madam, have you been suffering from insomnia, irritability, or mood swings recently?"

"Oh! Is this the legendary mysterious oriental power? I do have some of the problems you mentioned recently..."

"Alas, it seems that Madam is indeed overworked and needs to relax and rest. It is not easy to take care of Peter alone..."

When Aunt Mei heard Link mention this, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
Thinking about how hard she had worked to raise Peter, but never expecting a strange mature man to reveal her long-held annoyance and worries,

His emotions were surging, and he couldn't help but complain to Link. When he spoke of his deep feelings, he couldn't stop crying, and he leaned on Link and cried non-stop.

Link took out a tissue and patted him with his palm, comforting him softly, but in his heart he was thinking:

"I'm sorry, Peter. From now on I'll call you brother and you can just call me uncle. We can talk about our own affairs."

At this moment, Peter Parker, who was wandering back and forth between the high-rise buildings, couldn't help but shudder. He always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell why.

"I'm so sorry to have made you laugh."

After her emotions gradually stabilized, Aunt Mei left Link's arms in a panic.

"It's okay. It's rare to find a strong and independent woman like you. If you feel aggrieved or uncomfortable, you can tell me. It's not good to keep it in your heart."

"I also know a little bit about psychology and massage. We can chat some time to relieve some mental stress."

"Really? Would it be too much trouble for you..."

Aunt Mei looked shy.

Link spoke righteously,
"You are Peter's aunt, which means you are my aunt. It is my duty to do this! I love helping others the most!"

"Well, that's troublesome."

　I'm very sorry, everyone. This one is really too eager to advance the plot, and Aunt Mei is really not well written. (Yi)
