Chapter 203: The Reformed Restaurant
Chapter 203:
At 12:50 a.m., when the streets are full of ghosts, a restaurant in the food court is just opening for business.
At the door of the restaurant stood a waiter, he looked very old, thin, a bit like a high school student, the waiter grew a round face, and a pair of gray-yellow eyes, his hands were clasped on the service table in front of him, and he looked at the wandering spirits back and forth on the street with great interest, as if he was very interested in those spirits.
Just when the waiter was fascinated, someone suddenly called him from behind:
"Hey, Ash, give me last night's markerbook. ”
The waiter looked back and saw that it was another person who was also a waiter.
"Oh, I'll find it for you, I don't know where I lost my notebook last night. ”
The waiter who called Xiao Gray heard his colleague's words and began to look down for the notebook, but he didn't find it for a while and said, "Oh, why is it missing?" ”
Ash handed it to his colleague when he found the notebook, but just as his colleague was about to go in with the notebook, Ash suddenly stopped him, and then pointed to the wandering spirits outside and said, "Hey, by the way, Kuroko, have you seen so many ghosts before? It's the first time I've seen so many ghosts, this Halloween is really interesting." ”
The waiter who was called Kuroko also turned his head to look at the geyers outside when he heard this, but he was not as interested in those geyers as Xiao Ash, he just said lightly: "I've seen it many times, there's nothing strange about this, but don't look at it too much, there will be guests coming soon, let's entertain people well, and the boss is also here today." ”
After Kuroko finished saying this, he didn't care what happened to Xiao Ash, and turned around and went back to the lobby on the first floor.
And Xiao Ash was still looking at those ghosts, but when he heard Kuroko's words, he immediately corrected his work attitude, because he was afraid that his boss would see him if he didn't do his job well.
At this time, in the lobby on the first floor, there were already several tables of guests waiting to be served, but those guests were not ordinary humans, but all monsters.
While waiting for the food to be served, one of the youkai by the window said to the other, "Oh, it's not easy for us to finally be able to get in line today, and we can come for a meal." ”
"yes, it's just that I can't figure it out, this store was obviously intentional not to let the monsters in before, why is it letting the monsters in now?"
Another youkai also said.
The first youkai said, "I don't know, but it's good to be able to come here to eat, and the boss here is a youkai, and even the waiter is a youkai, so we can eat with confidence." ”
The second monster also nodded and agreed: "That's right, don't worry about it for now, listen to those people boast about how delicious the food in this shop is, we will also try it."
The two youkai here are discussing the restaurant, and the other tables of youkai guests are also discussing, but they are discussing the same topic, because this 'Shiren' restaurant has always deliberately not allowed the monsters to come in to eat, but I don't know why the restaurant has suddenly changed in the past few days, and you can be allowed to eat, so let those youkai who have heard the name of this place come to try it.
While they were discussing, there was a behemoth sleeping in a box on the second floor of the restaurant, but it had not been long in its sleep before it woke up again.
"Whew~ I smelled those little animals full of aura again, I'm really gluttonous~"
After the behemoth woke up, he transformed into a man, the man got up from the ground, then walked to the side of the chair and sat down, and then commanded to the door: "Come on, serve food~"
At the door of the box, there was always a figure standing there, seeing that the figure was still a man, and after hearing the man's command, he immediately said, "Okay boss, I will prepare dinner for you right away." ”
The figure quickly went downstairs, but the man sat still in his chair, and after a few minutes the man spoke again, but this time he was not facing the door, but to a painting hanging on the wall in the box, and said, "Rhubarb, go down and see if there is any suitable food tonight, so pick one for me." ”
The painting hanging on the wall is a picture of a tiger coming out of the mountain, it looks ordinary, like an ordinary picture, but just after the man's words were finished, the majestic tiger painted in the picture jumped out of the painting with a 'bang', and suddenly turned into a middle-aged man in yellow clothes.
It's just that although this man jumped out of a painting, he is not a painting demon, but a tiger demon.
After the tiger demon came out of the painting, he said respectfully to the man: "Okay boss, it's just that people in the metaphysical world seem to be eyeing us recently, should we close the door for a while?"
"No, isn't it just a bunch of humans and some little monsters? I'm afraid that they will do something, so don't shoot in the store tonight, just look for it outside." ”
"Okay. ”
After hearing this, the tiger demon went out to find food for his boss, and at the same time, a large food truck also pushed into the box.
After receiving another customer, Ash began to look out at the street again, but there were not many spirits on the street now.
After watching for a while, Xiao Ash saw the man in yellow come out, and he immediately shouted respectfully: "Uncle Tiger." ”
The tiger demon glanced at Xiao Ash, and then said, "I'll go out and find some food for the boss, you guys take care of the restaurant." ”
As soon as Xiao Ash heard the tiger demon's words, he knew what he meant, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I know." ”
However, when the tiger demon turned around and went out, Xiao Ash showed a relaxed expression, he had actually been working here for a few days, so he didn't know a lot about the secrets of this restaurant, but he still knew it from other colleagues, the owner of this restaurant is a big monster, and he also likes to eat people!
The boss likes to let the tiger demon go out to catch people for him to eat, and sometimes he will catch the guests in the restaurant to eat, but their boss has eaten a little too many people recently, and he may have been targeted by the metaphysical world of the human world, so he has only stopped for a while recently.
However, when I heard the tiger demon say that I was going out to find food for the boss just now, Xiao Ash also knew that the boss was greedy again, but the employees in their restaurant knew what the boss had done, and they also knew what the rules of the human world were, but none of the employees dared to report it.
Not long after the tiger demon left, a man in a gray robe came into the restaurant, and as soon as Xiao Ash saw this man, he knew who he was, but he still pretended to greet ordinary customers, and stepped forward to greet the man.
"Hello, sir, how many are there?"
The man in the Taoist uniform saw Xiao Ash and knew that he was not a human being, only to see him take out his work card from his pocket with a serious expression and said: "Hello, I am from the management department of the metaphysical world, and I am here to check your store today, please take out your documents." ”
Xiao Ash has recently met a lot of people from the metaphysical world to check on them, so he didn't take out his demon certificate and said, "Okay, look at it." ”
After reading Xiao Ash's documents, the man in the Taoist uniform said again: "Please take me in to meet your boss." ”
In fact, the man in the Taoist uniform did not only come to check the documents, but also to check the restaurant, because their department received a report, and people often go missing, and there are both missing humans and monsters, and there are also several people in the management department, and those people have all been to this 'Shiren' restaurant before they disappeared, or are doing business near this restaurant.
At the beginning, in fact, the metaphysical community did not suspect this restaurant, but they suspected that it was other monsters or other things that were doing something, and the reason why they suspected this restaurant later was because after another colleague from the management office disappeared, their department tracked the missing person's mobile phone and located it here, and the positioning time was very short, and it disappeared all of a sudden, so the metaphysical community began to suspect this strange restaurant.
And the restaurant was suspected, and the owner of the restaurant began to reform, he put away the demon energy, and changed it to no longer only let humans consume, but began to let monsters also come in and consume.
Xiao Ash entered the lobby of the restaurant with a man in a Taoist uniform and said to a waiter who was serving food: "Kuroko, this comrade is looking for our boss." ”
Kuroko was serving food to a table of guests, and when he heard Xiao Ash's words, he turned his head and said, "Brother Quan is probably upstairs, you can go up and call him directly." ”
When Ash heard this, he said, "Oh, okay, please wait a minute." ”
When the man in the Taoist suit saw Kuroko, he saw at a glance that he was not a monster, but a monk, but I didn't know how he could work in this restaurant.
When the man in the uniform was looking at Kuroko, Kuroko was also observing him, but from the eyes of the man in the uniform, Kuroko had already seen his thoughts, this person was just curious about why he was working here as a human being.
Kuroko understood the man's thoughts and didn't show any expression, just lightly doing his job and said, "Our boss will come down soon, please wait a while." ”
The man in the suit didn't say anything, just stood aside and waited for the boss to come out.
Two minutes later, a man in a suit descended from the stairs behind Ash, his figure looking similar to the man standing outside the box on the second floor.
