Chapter 33: Let's Cook Seriously
The black shadow who had just been about to get up to pick up the food continued to stagger his two black legs and walked towards the food pick-up table, and the three black holes in the head of the black shadow who deliberately looked back at the two sisters and brothers also disappeared, and they re-faced the dishes on the table.
As if nothing had happened, the shadows were still for more than a dozen seconds, but they just continued their movements, and none of them made the imaginary attack on the siblings.
Bai Siyi immediately relaxed her body like a deflated ball, at this moment she just wanted to throw herself on the ground softly, without being kicked a few times hard, and definitely not taking the initiative to get up. Fortunately, Lin Feifei beside her kept holding her arm, although the boy still looked like he couldn't figure out the situation, but the body temperature and subtle breathing sound he transmitted gave Bai Siyi great courage and supported her from falling to the ground.
In the more than ten seconds that she was watched by the black shadows, Bai Siyi's cold sweat had soaked the clothes on her back, and the blood stains that had dried on the clothes on her back were wet with sweat and sticky on the wound on her back. Stimulated by the salty sweat, the abrasion on his back immediately came with a burst of pain.
"Follow me." Bai Si took a breath of cold air, lowered his voice and said to Lin Feifei. Lin Feifei immediately hummed obediently, and his body was closer to Bai Siyi. The siblings tried to get as close to the floor-to-ceiling glass as possible, trying to carefully navigate the dark shadows along the edge of the restaurant.
The counter with recipes is on the other side of the restaurant, and it's undoubtedly the quickest to cross directly through the restaurant. Although those dark shadows didn't seem to be interested in the two siblings, Bai Siyi was absolutely unwilling to take Lin Feifei and these weird things to pass by.
The dark aura coming from these black shadows was so unsettling, and their act of absorbing the white light in the dishes made Bai Siyi feel that when they approached Lin Feifei, they would definitely not be able to help but pounce on the boy and fight for food, after all, in Bai Siyi's eyes, the white light on Lin Feifei's body was much brighter and richer than the light on the dishes. It's like a bowl of bland brush water, and a bowl of well-made soup, these diners will know how to choose.
When this terrible scene was imagined by Bai Siyi, Bai Siyi trembled his body again, and used his arm to push Lin Feifei a little further distance in the direction of the floor-to-ceiling glass.
After noticing that Bai Siyi was afraid of something in the restaurant just now, and these things were invisible to him, Lin Feifei obediently followed all Bai Siyi's instructions, tried to reduce his sense of existence, and wanted to turn himself into a wisp of air and disappear without a trace. If Lin Feifei decides, he would prefer to turn around and leave the restaurant. It's a pity that the recipe and the kitchen room are right in front of him, and Lin Feifei also knows that it is the safest and wisest choice to complete the copy and leave as quickly as possible.
The siblings rubbed along the floor-to-ceiling glass to the other side of the restaurant, and when the menu on the service desk appeared in front of them, the siblings exhaled at the same time. Most of the quest quest has been completed, now all you need to do is find a black shadow when they are all away from the pick-up table, walk into the glass kitchen in the center of the revolving pick-up table, start cooking the dishes, and the two of them can safely end this forced quest. As for the fact that the dishes made by the two siblings will be eaten by these dark shadows, only the little pheasant that has been made into chicken cutlets will care.
Bai Siyi suddenly remembered that depending on the dishes made, this dungeon would also give a certain number of rewards. It's impossible to get high rewards for simple fried food, but since these dishes are eaten by these shadows, could these reward points be the meal money paid by the shadows?
So what the hell are these dark shadows?
The door to the glass kitchen opens in the direction of rushing towards the serving table, and there is a closed secret door in the lower part of the corresponding position of the rotating pick-up table, which seems to have been used by previous players to enter the kitchen to cook.
"Get the recipe." Bai Si turned around and looked in the direction of the glass kitchen, observing how to enter the kitchen, but unexpectedly saw a figure appear at the entrance of the restaurant.
"Preserved eggs, there are people here!" At the same time, a man's voice crossed the entire restaurant and reached the ears of the siblings.
As soon as Bai Si reacted very quickly, he turned around and grabbed the recipe on the service desk and stuffed it into Lin Feifei's intact hand, shouting, "Look! He grabbed Lin Feifei's arm and ran in the direction of the food pick-up table.
Lin Feifei also reacted quickly, flipped through the recipe with his newly grown and soft half of his palm, and read it randomly as he ran, until the recipe turned into a light and disappeared into Lin Feifei's hand. "Alright." Lin Feifei shouted at Bai Siyi. Bai Siyi immediately sped up his pace towards the pick-up table a little.
On the other side, the man who had just entered the restaurant listened to what the man he called Preserved Egg said and replied, "It seems to be a woman and a child." When he saw the movements of the two siblings, he added, "They are running towards me, but they seem to be running away." After a few seconds, the man replied "ok" and ran into the dining room.
Bai Siyi didn't have time to pay attention to the movements of those black figures, I don't know if they paid as much attention to this man as they did to the two sisters and brothers at the beginning, she and Lin Feifei had already run to the revolving food pick-up table. Bai Siyi didn't have time to drill the secret door under the platform, but pulled Lin Feifei to simply turn over and climb onto the platform. The surface of the table was constantly moving, and the two of them were almost driven down by the rotating table. However, after some scrambling between the two, they staggered and jumped into the interior of the circular food pick-up table, only a step away from the glass kitchen.
This rude gesture immediately caused the black figure closest to them to stop choosing a meal, and the three holes in their heads turned towards the siblings.
"Looks vegetable." The man who ran towards them said a word to his companion, who did not know where to hide. Unbeknownst to the man, his body had passed through a dark shadow.
At this moment, Bai Siyi really hoped that these black shadows that only she could see were attacking, but unfortunately, the black shadow was like a real black smoke, allowing the man to pass through the body without hindrance, and even froze in place for a while, as if he was very surprised that he was pierced by someone, he groped his body a few times with the limbs of his arm before continuing the unfinished action.
Damn, I knew that these black things were such a waste, we would have taken the recipe and left, okay? At this time, Bai Si wanted to kick the face of the black shadow next to him who was staring at them with three black holes.
Fortunately, because the glass kitchen is in the center of the dining room, the distance that the siblings and the man need to run is almost the same, and the man wasted some time when he first discussed with his teammates, so when the siblings opened the door of the kitchen and rushed in, the man just made a sideways leap supported on the food table with one hand, and jumped neatly into the ring formed by the food table.
Now, there is only a glass barrier between this man and his sister and brother.
Just as the man raised his hand and threw out an object and shot it into the glass of the kitchen, Bai Siyi slammed the door of the kitchen behind him and shouted into the air.
"We're going to cook."
There was silence in the air, and no one answered, but the thing that shot at the glass between the kitchens hit the glass, but did no damage to the seemingly fragile glass, and just fell to the ground with a clang, and rolled some distance with a grunt.
The man seemed to know the rules of this copy, and unhurriedly bent down to pick up the thing that rolled back to his feet and walked to the glass.
The man raised his hand and tapped the glass with what it had just picked up, and the glass and the object made a crisp clicking sound, it was a coin. The coin features a portrait of a human with classical English curly hair, which appears to be a foreign commemorative coin. The man smiled at the siblings, a friendly and courteous smile, as if his attack on the glass was just a way to greet them.
Now that the two of them are safe, Bai Siyi has time to take a closer look at the man's appearance.
If Bai Siyi was asked to label this man, Bai Siyi would not hesitate to put the word "ordinary" on his face. No one will suspect that this ordinary man will be thrown into the crowd and given him a random name such as passer-by. Ordinary facial features, ordinary hairstyle, ordinary clothing, height that is not tall or short, and a figure that is not fat or thin, a person can be so ordinary that it seems to be a second-class product rushed out of the assembly line, which is also a feature, right?
"Please start making dishes right away." A mechanical voice interrupted Bai Siyi's attempt to look at the man.
"Sister." Lin Feifei also shouted in her ear, obviously hearing this voice as well.
Bai Si took a breath, no longer looked at the man across the glass, took the little pheasant out of the package, and said to Lin Feifei, "You go find the pot, let's boil the water first and pluck the chicken feathers." ”
Bai Siyi felt that when she finished saying what she had just said, there was a heavy resentment floating out of the little pheasant in her hand, this resentment was so deep that it made her shiver excitedly, and this feeling made Bai Siyi almost throw the dead chicken in his hand.
Bai Siyi and Lin Feifei are definitely not the first people in the world to be watched plucking chicken feathers, but in a kitchen room like a glass display case, it is really exciting to be watched by a man with an interesting gaze and a group of black shadows with three holes in their heads.
"Sister, these chicken feathers are very beautiful, can I keep a few?" Lin Feifei held the tail feather of a little pheasant and shook it a few times in the air, looking very fond of it. The colorful tail feathers are shrouded in a blurry luster under the illumination of the light, and when you think about the appearance of the baby pheasant before its death, you can't believe that it is actually the same species.
Lin Feifei shook the chicken feathers in his hand again, and seeing that his sister did not object, he simply picked out all the tail feathers of the little pheasant, turned them into a small handful in his hand, and put them into the package. Perhaps because Lin Feifei couldn't see the group of black shadows, and in this state where the rules of the dungeon ensured that all attacks were neutralized, Lin Feifei was not as uncomfortable as Bai Siyi when someone outside the glass was visiting. When the boy occasionally looked up, the team met the eyes of the man outside the glass, and even made a mischievous face at the man. The man was stunned for a moment, and even pushed his nose at Lin Feifei, pretending to be a pig's nose. Lin Feifei immediately laughed, revealing his dimples and little tiger teeth, and pushed Bai Siyi, who was busy cleaning up the little pheasant, so that his sister could also watch the man's movements.
At this time, the little pheasant, which was already naked, was eviscerated and thrown on the board.
At the moment when Lin Feifei motioned for his sister to look out, Bai Siyi raised the kitchen knife high, and cut off the chicken head with a duang~. The chicken's head actually flew high, crossed a parabola in the air, and accurately fell into the box of kitchen waste that Lin Feifei took out of the package. In the box of garbage that didn't serve its intended purpose, there was just another chicken feather and a bunch of offal from a little pheasant, and now, oh, there was another chicken head that had found its way by.
"What's wrong?" Bai Si asked Lin Feifei without looking back, his hands kept moving, and he began to disassemble all the useful parts of the little pheasant's body. Bai Siyi didn't want to touch the ingredients that these dead people turned into, and was surrounded by a group of ghosts that only she could see, and she only felt that her nerves and muscles were uncontrollable and jumped and jumped, Lin Feifei suddenly pushed her movements, so that Bai Siyi almost threw the kitchen knife in his hand out, and now it just flew a chicken head, which is already a good result.
Lin Feifei swallowed his saliva and replied, "It's okay, you're busy, sister, don't pay attention to me." Lin Feifei looked at the man outside the glass with a bitter face, and the man stared at Lin Feifei with a staring expression, and compared with Lin Feifei with his lip shape, "The woman in the kitchen is terrible." Lin Feifei also replied with a lip shape, "Just cook deliciously." The two men, one big and one young, actually established a preliminary friendship when Bai Siyi was busy handling the ingredients......
"Okay, go find salt, pepper, cooking wine, ......" Bai Siyi habitually instructed the boy next to him, but found that the boy did not move, and when Bai Si turned around, he saw the boy's eyes in the kitchen room with a confused look, Bai Siyi realized that it was not Bai Kong next to him.
The last time she cooked, she was still in vain.
Because she lacked memories of the period before entering this game, she remembered the last thing she did outside the game, which was to cook a simple meal with Shiraku, and the two of them picked up the dishes and chopsticks and started eating. If you only count the time in your memory, it will take less than a week to complete the time, but Bai Siyi has a feeling, as if that scene was a long, long time ago, so long ago that Bai Siyi's memory has faded a little, and there is already a sense of unreality, as if something happened in the previous life.
Bai Si sighed, not wanting to think about it any longer, so he turned around and searched the kitchen for what he needed.
"Sister, you teach me to recognize things." Seeing Bai Siyi's movements, Lin Feifei immediately posted it and said to Bai Siyi with some flattery. The boy seemed to be very concerned about not being able to give Bai Siyi a hand, for fear that his sister would be angry, "I'm a fast learner, I still want to learn to cook~" In the end, the boy's tone even had a coquettish taste.
"It's okay, anyway, in the game, there won't be many opportunities to need to cook." Bai Si comforted Lin Feifei gently. A white figure floated in his mind again. He is not in vain and does not need to learn to cook with her. However, is it really his own will for Bai Kong to learn to cook......
Although Bai Siyi said that he didn't need Lin Feifei to learn this, Lin Feifei still followed Bai Siyi like a little tail, and turned in a circle in the kitchen.
Just in Bai Siyi's soul and Lin Feifei's tireless work, a plate of pheasant meat was marinated.
"Alright, now wait an hour." Bai Siyi finally knows why there is kitchen waste in the vegetable market, cooking this kind of thing, definitely not every player can do it, it seems that the difference between the purchase price and the sale price in the vegetable market is also reasonable, it is estimated that a large part of it is processing fees. The vegetable market takes care of everything for the player, as long as the player gets his own cooking point and throws it into the pot indiscriminately, as long as the pot does not let the pot fry, he should be able to complete the task. Is this just a game, after all.
Bai Si glanced at the dishes outside the glass kitchen that still rotated back and forth with the counter, and these dishes looked like they were all in full color, flavor, and each one looked like it was made by a star chef. However, Bai Siyi, who figured out the knots, actually felt a deep sympathy for the dark shadows in the restaurant.
These black shadows eat this kind of stuff every day, no wonder they saw Bai Siyi who was cooking seriously, and all the black shadows stopped eating and ran over to watch her.
