Chapter 57: Burning Yourself

Wang Shen's hand holding the teacup was shocked by this scream. The waitress standing by looked at the source of the voice with a look of surprise. Wang Shen and Liang Zichen glanced at each other, then stood up from their seats and walked towards the source of the sound. Before he could take two steps, the scene in front of him made everyone stunned. Anyone who has a bad psychological quality will scream out loud.

A man suddenly sprang out of the compartment not far away. No, it can't be called a person anymore. All that everyone saw was a humanoid flame. The Flame Chicken I just mentioned has now become a Flame Man?

Shrill shouts rang out from the cubicle. These sounds should come from the customers in the cubicle. The man who was enveloped in the raging fire let out the same cry of pain from his mouth. No one could read his expression, and everything the man had was consumed by the flames except for his voice. The people wrapped in the flames were running around, and since the hotel was mostly made of wood, if it continued like this, the entire hotel would suffer.

"Let's put out the fire!" Wang Shen shouted at the waitress who was already stunned on the side. And Wang Shen and Liang Zichen also began to look around for fire extinguishers. Finally, Wang Shen found a fire extinguisher in the corner. Wang Shen kicked the glass and took the fire extinguisher out of it. Wang Shen rushed to the burning man with a fire extinguisher and sprayed at his body.

By this time, the Burning Man had stopped scurrying around like a headless fly, and instead lay quietly on the ground, allowing the flames to consume and incinerate him. The flames on this man's body were so strong that Wang Shen sprayed a fire extinguisher for a while before extinguishing the fire on his body. The whole restaurant has become a mess, and diners have come to see the excitement. Han Lin, the restaurant manager that Wang Shen met last time, also appeared.

Han Lin recognized Wang Shen, and after hurriedly saying hello to Wang Shen, his eyes fell on the employee on the ground. The man lying on the ground, his body twitching slightly, his eyes open, and the whites of his eyes contrasted sharply with the burnt black of his body. It can be seen that the temperature of the person's body is still very high, and a trace of white gas can be clearly seen on the charred black body. Some parts of the body have been charred black. In some places, the charred flesh has even fallen off, revealing the bright red flesh within. There were more and more people watching, most of them frowning, covering their noses, and whispering while blocking the smell of burning. No one knew what to do with such an emergency until the ambulance arrived. At this time, a male employee came over with a bucket of cold water and gently poured it on the body of the person lying on the ground.

"Did you call an ambulance?" Wang Shen asked Han Lin.

"Called, called." Han Lin replied hurriedly, touching the beads of sweat on his forehead as he answered.

"Manager Han, before the ambulance comes, can I ask you a few questions?" Wang Shen patted Han Lin on the shoulder and comforted him.

Han Lin turned his head in astonishment, looked at Wang Shen, and then nodded stiffly.

"Is this person an employee of your store?"

Han Lin's head nodded twice.

Wang Shen suddenly thought of something, took his gaze away from Han Lin's body, bypassed the people on the ground, and prepared to walk towards the private room where the accident occurred. "By the way, Manager Han, you can help me ask about the relevant situation. It should be fine, right? Wang Shen stopped and turned to look at Liang Zichen. Liang Zichen heard Wang Shen's words, and nodded firmly.

A few customers in the private room were still curled up on the side of their chairs, staring at the chicken scattered on the floor in amazement. Wang Shen glanced at the chicken on the ground, then at the person lying outside, walked to the side of several customers, and took out his documents.

"Don't be nervous, I'm a police officer, I want to know something from you." After speaking, Wang Shen put away his documents and looked at the two women and one man in front of him.

The man was the first to answer. The man swallowed his saliva and looked at Wang Shen and nodded.

"Was the reason for the fire on that man because of the chicken?" Wang Shen asked, pointing to the chicken on the ground.

"Yes." The man in front of him had regained some composure.

"Can you tell me more about what happened?" Wang Shen's expression became serious, and he took out a notebook and pen from his pocket, waiting for the man's statement.

"It's all because of that dish." After speaking, the man also pointed to the chicken on the ground, and his eyes revealed a little horror. The man took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and began to recall the terrible experience he had just had. "We came to this restaurant to eat, and we actually came for this flaming chicken dish. Friends who have been to this shop have recommended this dish to me, saying that it is delicious and beautiful, mainly because it is good-looking. I ordered this dish with the mindset of giving it a try. When the food was served, the whole set of equipment really made our eyes shine. We saw the waiter walk in with thick gloves and a tray of chickens and a bottle of wine. He said that he was responsible for roasting this flame chicken, so let's wait and see. Then, he began his show. In the beginning, everything went smoothly. He lifted the chicken directly into the air with his gloves, then opened the bottle of wine and slowly poured it over the chicken. Then, the waiter found a catheter, connected the chicken's mouth, and poured some of the wine down the catheter into the chicken's mouth. The waiter took out a bamboo skewer from the tray and made several holes in the chicken's body. We clearly see that the whole chicken is drenched in wine. 'Next is the main thing,' he reminded us, and our eyes widened with excitement. Unexpectedly, something terrible happened. At this, the man's expression became nervous again. He paused, readjusting his emotions.

The waiter took off one of his gloves and pulled a lighter out of his coat pocket. He carried the chicken by the neck with his gloved hand and lit the lighter with the other. As we watched expectantly, we saw the flames begin to rise from the chicken's feet to the chicken's body. We applauded while we were amazed, but we didn't expect the flame to show no signs of ending. When the flame reached the chicken's neck, it suddenly turned around and spread towards the waiter's hand. At first, the waiter did not panic, but tried to extinguish the fire with his other hand. However, when his other hand approached the flames, the flames rushed up to his other hand as if they were out of control. Completely panicked, he threw away the chicken in his hand and began to shake his hands. Then, then ......" The man paused again, his eyes looking a little hollow. Then the fire went down his two hands towards his body, and his feet wrapped around it. Finally, there is the hair. He, completely burned ......"
