Although the guy who lived in the opposite door agreed to Zhang Heng's proposal to go to dinner together, he was still full of vigilance and kept a certain distance from Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng didn't force each other, at least the two of them have introduced each other's names now and made a simple self-introduction, which can be regarded as a considerable progress.

Zhang Heng already knew that the guy next to him was called Farbury Cott, very young, only 17 years old this year, and was traveling in New England, according to his own words, mainly to enjoy natural scenery, search for monuments, and by the way, also study family genealogy, originally planned to take the train directly from Newbury Port to Arkham, but the conductor of Newbury Port provided him with a more affordable travel plan.

It was to take the bus to transfer here, but Fabricott did not expect the late bus to Arkham to be cancelled, so he had to spend the night here.

During the conversation, Zhang Heng also learned that Fabric Cot arrived much earlier than him, he took the 10 o'clock bus from Newburyport, and he had been wandering here for a long time, so he should have collected a lot of information, perhaps this can also explain why he seems so flustered and vigilant now.

Eighty percent of this unlucky kid heard or saw something he shouldn't have heard or seen, but when Zhang Heng asked this, he immediately closed his mouth and stopped talking.

Zhang Heng knew that this was because the two had just known each other for a short time, and the trust had not yet arrived.

In addition, although Zhang Heng could also perceive the gloomy and strange nature of this town, he did not feel too depressed and afraid, on the contrary, Fabricott beside him was very disgusted and uneasy, in his words, he didn't want to stay here for a moment, and he wanted to give birth to a pair of wings and fly away directly.

The two walked out of the hostel.

The buildings in the neighborhood still look dirty, but in terms of the dilapidation of the town, there are grocery stores, pharmacies, wholesale fish markets, refinery offices and restaurants, and a river in the middle, which together form the center of the town.

However, I don't know if it was because it was time to get off work, or because it was also preparing for the evening celebration, most of the shops were closed, but fortunately, the restaurant was still open.

There were two people inside, a man and a woman, one of whom was emaciated, hunched over, and his eyes looked very dull, and Zhang Heng stared at him for a while, and found that he didn't blink his eyes, if SCP Foundation 173 met him, it was estimated that he would only be able to hug his head and cry in the corner.

The woman on the other side has a flat nose, wears a rustic dress, and is bending over to wipe the table, although she is suspected of going naked, but considering her dignity, probably no man is willing to take advantage of this.

Especially Zhang Heng noticed that Fabricott beside him began to feel uneasy again, although these two people did not have obvious deformities, but they were both on the verge of deformity, according to the old man's previous statement, as they grew older, they were likely to become old men.

It was clear that Fabriccott would not want to walk into the restaurant if he had a choice, but in the end, he chose the latter after starvation and visual pollution.

Trying not to look at the faces of the two, he focused his gaze on the menu at the counter, and instead of being disappointed, he was relieved to find that the food inside was mainly canned and ham.

Apparently he didn't trust the townspeople very much, and was therefore quite skeptical of the food they offered, and a can of food with biscuits and a bowl of vegetable soup was enough for him.

After that, he moved out of the way and asked Zhang Heng, "What are you eating?" ”

When the latter heard this, he said, "I don't have any money, and I'm not very hungry, just watch you eat." ”

“…………”

Fabriccott stood there and struggled for a moment, but finally sighed, "Forget it, I'll ask you." ”

Zhang Heng was not polite, and said to the man with dull eyes, "Just give me a copy as well." ”

After Fabri Cot had paid, the woman with the flat nose went into the back kitchen.

And Zhang Heng and Fabricott found a place to sit away from the counter.

The latter endured it for a while but couldn't help but speak, "You knocked on my door and asked me to come out for dinner, but you didn't bring any money with you?" ”

Zhang Heng hummed, dragging his chin and looking at the restaurant with interest, in order to welcome the celebration in the evening, it was obviously decorated here.

Fabricott frowned, and at the same time his heart was unhappy, "...... Are you taking me for a wronged man? ”

"I said I'm not really hungry, you can just eat it yourself," Zhang Heng turned his head, "You have to insist on inviting me." ”

"I ...... I'm just politely polite. ”

"Then it's not too late for you to tell the kitchen to cancel my share."

"It's also so embarrassing...... Wait, you know I'm not going to do that, that's why you say that, right? ”

"If you feel ashamed, I can help you say it." Zhang Heng said this as he stood up.

"Are you bluffing?"

Zhang Heng didn't answer, smiled, turned around and walked towards the back kitchen.

As he was about to reach the door, Fabriccott finally spoke again, "Alright, let's stop here, there isn't much money anyway." ”

But Zhang Heng didn't stop when he heard this, but really walked into the back kitchen.

At this time, Farbery Cot was a little embarrassed, after all, he had been taught since childhood that when people are in difficulty, they can still help or should help if they can, and as he himself said, this meal will not cost much anyway, even for a young man who is traveling on a poor journey, so he also got up from his seat and rushed into the back kitchen with him.

And the glazed-eyed man sitting behind the counter just looked at the two of them, without speaking or hindering.

The hygiene of the kitchen was not as bad as Fabriccott imagined, although there was still that fishy smell that could not be dispersed, although the walls were also covered with mold, but at least there were no rats and cockroaches, Zhang Heng was talking to the woman with a flat nose.

But then it was quickly interrupted by Fabricott, "No, no, no...... Don't listen to him, just prepare dinner as before. ”

However, the woman with the flat nose was also a little sluggish, as if she didn't understand what he was saying, and looked at Fabricott suspiciously,

So Fabrici Cot had no choice but to stretch out two more fingers, "Two copies!" Meals are served in two. ”

At this moment, he noticed that Zhang Heng on the side took off the chef's knife hanging on the wall, and took two at a time, hid it in his clothes, and made a silent gesture to him by the way.

Fabriccott's eyes were about to fall, and he immediately realized that someone sneaking into the back kitchen was not angry with him at all, but to steal the knife, of course, this behavior is not worth advocating, but Fabric Cott hesitated, but he didn't make a sound, his heart beat fast, and he followed Zhang Heng out of the back kitchen.
