Chapter 10 Restaurants
Considering that the mission location is a relatively backward rural area, as a foreigner, Dominica's existence is really a bit special. Therefore, before entering the mission, he chose not to wear that black suit, but changed into a casual outfit with a peaked cap to cover the striking blonde hair.
The group entered the restaurant with large bags and small bags, and Dai Shikai skillfully took the menu from the waiter and asked for a private room.
As Wang Yichen complained, after a few people sat down, Dai Shikai's eyebrows danced and began to order, completely like a passer-by who came to travel: "Yes, I like to eat Sichuan food." No one is taboo here, right...... Golden retriever, can you eat spicy? ”
"It's okay, you can watch it." Dominic made a gesture of pity.
He ordered eight hot dishes in one go, and after the waiter finished reporting the dishes to the back kitchen, Dai Shikai nodded with satisfaction, and then got to the point: "By the way, sister, I want to ask you something." ”
"Okay, brother." The little sister replied heartily.
"Excuse me, how do I get there if I want to go to Dongping Village?" Dai Shikai asked.
The waiter told them that as long as they went to the bus station to buy a ticket, they could take a bus for about two hours to get to Dongping Village.
As for the departure time, there are three regular departures a day, namely 8 a.m., 11 p.m. and 3 p.m.
"It's still the captain and Brother Dai who have the foresight, otherwise even if we go directly, we will have to wait for a long time in vain." Ayina praised the two very skillfully, and Wang Yichen saw that the other party looked at Dai Shikai with admiration on his face, and his heart became more and more unhappy.
"Ah, by the way, sister, there are still some things I want to ask you."
Dai Shikai said, took out a pink bill from his pocket, and handed it to the other party: "A few of us have a temporary idea to go to Dongping Village to play for a few days, but we don't know much about the situation over there." I want to ask you, are you familiar with it? ”
The waiter's little sister had a good impression of the white and delicate young man in front of her, and this group of handsome men and women were there, which did look like a tourist, so she took the banknote and thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you, brother, since you have received the money, then I will tell you about it." ”
She turned her head to look outside the box, and saw that there was nothing important, so she quickly said, "Actually, I also came here to work." My house is next door to Dongping Village, where the scenery is particularly good, and it is also the largest and richest village in the vicinity. Because every summer there are tourists who come to play in this area, there are also homestays in the village, and it is only forty or fifty for a night, which is certainly not expensive for you. ”
"Oh, that's pretty good." Dai Shikai beckoned to her and motioned for the waiter to stand closer: "You come." ”
The little sister saw the young man looking at her with a smile on her face, and she suddenly became a little shy when she was usually very aggressive. She walked up to Dai Shikai and said a little nervously, "What's the matter, brother?" ”
"Sister, it's not a secret, in fact, our group of people are all in a community, and we usually like to study some ghosts and gods. This time I came to the countryside to experience life, just to see if the legends in the countryside in the mountains are true...... So I want to ask you, have you heard any strange rumors about Dongping Village? ”
"Strange rumors? Brother, what exactly do you mean? The waiter looked puzzled, as if he didn't understand what he meant.
Dai Shikai added: "For example, someone died inexplicably, haunting and other horror incidents......"
The waiter shook his head: "Over the years, there have been dead people in the nearby villages, but they are all old people who are sick, or who has lost their footing and drowned, this is a common thing, these situations you said are relatively rare, anyway, I haven't heard of it." ”
Her words disappointed everyone, Dominic looked at the young girl in front of her, and it could be judged from her expression that the other party should not be lying. He thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "How long have you been working in this restaurant?" ”
"Huh? This one...... I've been doing it for maybe five or six years. "The waiter's name is Xiaomei, because there are many brothers and sisters in the family since she was a child, and her parents didn't let her read anything. After graduating from junior high school, she and some sisters in the village came to Qixia Town to work, and worked in this restaurant called "Xi Shabu" until now.
"Sister, do you know anything related to this restaurant...... It's still the kind I asked, you know. What made Wang Yichen a little strange was that Dai Shikai and Dominic changed the topic and pointed the finger at this hotel.
What surprised him even more was that after hearing the questions of the two, the waiter showed a trace of hesitation on his face.
"This ......" she thought for a while, lowered her voice, and said to a few people: "Regarding the strange things in the restaurant, I did hear the cashier's eldest sister Zhang mention so many ears. She has lived in the neighborhood for decades, and she heard that the restaurant used to be run by a young couple. But one day, the male boss suddenly got a strange disease, and died mysteriously not long after, and when the body was found, I heard that the death was particularly terrifying...... Not only that, but his wife also disappeared with him, and it was only later that this place was taken over by our current boss. ”
After Xiaomei finished speaking, she pointed to the ceiling above their heads, and said a little awkwardly: "I heard that the room above was the bedroom of the boss and his wife, and as for the body, it was also found there...... Our boss was so bad that he found someone to convert the entire upstairs into a warehouse. Although the staff dormitory is far away, everyone thinks that the boss has too much conscience to do this, and he doesn't want to live on this floor anyway. ”
After hearing this, Dai Shikai frowned: "Excuse me, is the dead boss and his relatives from Dongping Village?" ”
The waiter was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes, yes, it's true!" ”
Hearing this, everyone had a vague number in their hearts.
"Then you drink tea first, you should be hungry for a long trip, wait a minute, I'll urge you to go to the food!" Xiaomei is a clever girl, and from the expressions of these people in front of her, she already senses something. So, after saying that, she left the private room.
After she left, Chu Shuguang, who had been silent, spoke: "The former owner of this restaurant, does it have anything to do with our mission?" ”
"Quite possibly." Dominic nodded: "Otherwise, how could the space teleport us to Qixia Town, and it happened to be next to this restaurant?" ”
After Wang Yichen heard what he said, he was immediately surprised. He looked at Dai Shikai and found that the other party's expression was very calm.
It turns out that this guy thought of these things in the first place!
It's fake to eat together, but it's true to ask for news......
"I'm sorry, Brother Dai. I misunderstood you at first, but I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful that you noticed these details in the first place. Wang Yichen said sincerely: "It seems that in the future tasks, there are still many places to learn from you and the captain!" ”
"That's right, it's because we don't have enough experience, and we don't think as thoughtfully as our predecessors." Chu Shuguang nodded: "We still want to hear your and the captain's views on how to take action from such an inconspicuous little thing and find out the bizarre case." ”
