Chapter 8 Enter the Mission
In a high-end western restaurant in the center of the city, two young people were sitting on the side, tasting the food in front of them in an orderly manner.
The crimson beef on the plate in front of the two of them was stewed crispy and soft, the juice was thick and flavorful, and the taste was not only fragrant and tender, but also because of the tendons, it had more chewiness when chewing.
"How about this dish? Does it taste okay? The bespectacled young man held his chin and smiled at his companion across from him enjoying the food, but the dishes in front of him barely moved.
"Well, it's a well-known high-end western restaurant in the city, and every dish here tastes really delicious. It's just that the price is also scary......"
Lu Qing ate very seriously, and even the garnishes and side dishes were dipped in the sauce and eaten cleanly. He believes that only in this way can the price of these dishes be worthy of the price and will not be wasted.
"If you like it, eat more, I didn't move much on this plate, so I don't dislike it." Dai Shikai pushed the lamb chops in front of him towards Lu Qing.
"You ordered so much in one go, why don't you eat it?" Lu Qing remembered the menu he had seen before, and his heart still ached faintly: "If you hadn't said that before the task started, I would have invited you to a good meal, and I wouldn't have come to such an expensive restaurant if I was killed." ”
"Brother Qing, you also slam the door! It's not that I said, the rewards of the light space over the years, add up to two or three million in your small treasury! You don't spend this money now, and you're waiting to bring it into the soil later...... Phew, I was wrong, I mean, be happy in time! ”
"Do you think everyone is like you and how much you spend?" Lu Qing glanced at him innocently: "Just leave some money to spend, as for the rest, of course I have other plans." ”
"I don't understand, I feel like you're living like a pure-hearted old monk......" Dai Shikai shook his head and beckoned to the waiter, as if he wanted to add something.
"Enough, don't order, any more will be wasted!" Lu Qing immediately stopped him.
The other party just smiled and shook his head, and ordered two more desserts: "It's okay, try this." You don't know, there's a new three-Michelin-starred chef here, and his specialty is this cherry lava chocolate, and if you love sweets, this dessert won't disappoint you. ”
"Well, this price didn't disappoint me either......" Lu Qing sighed, and had to let the other party order.
Dai Shikai held the knife and fork unhurriedly, savoring the main dish in front of him. Seeing this, Lu Qing couldn't help but be amazed: "This thing is really magical. The way you look now, I can vaguely see Brother Shi Jin's figure. Akai, in fact, if you can keep the current state, you will definitely not worry about not finding a partner. ”
"What, are you fascinated by my elegant appearance?" Dai Shikai instantly lost his shape again.
That being said, he didn't eat much. In the end, it was Lu Qing who went out to solve all the dishes on the table.
"It's not for me to say, next time let's go to eat food stalls, strings of incense, Chongqing hot pot is also fine! Today's meal is enough for the two of us to eat with open stomachs for a month......" Lu Qing complained.
As soon as he finished speaking, Dai Shikai also nodded approvingly: "Well, I also think that skewers and hot pot are much better than these steaks." ”
"What you said makes me feel like all the money has been spent in vain......"
Lu Qing finally gritted his teeth and asked the other party to rub it well, but who knew that he didn't buy it. Just when he was secretly annoyed, he suddenly saw another familiar figure.
And when the other party was full of surprise, and then came over to say hello with a smile, he realized that he had been tricked by Akai.
Due to the opening of the new store, there are still many things to be busy, Dai Shijin talked with the two for a while, and then left here in a hurry. Of course, before leaving, he told the others to treat them well, and by the way, he exempted Lu Qing from the order.
"This is your restaurant?"
"Yes, these dishes are similar, I've been tired of eating them since I was a child, but you don't know anything stupidly, so you insist on inviting me to my restaurant...... Hahaha, I'm sorry, but I also want to see how you react. ”
Dai Shikai smiled with a wicked smile: "But it's all here, so I let you have a good taste of the chef's skills in our restaurant, and by the way, I haven't eaten these for a long time, and it's still more nostalgic to taste a product once in a while." ”
Lu Qing glanced at him, and after the identity of Akai Shao's family was exposed, he couldn't stand the overly enthusiastic "care" of the waiter and manager here, so the two of them hastily ate dessert and left the restaurant.
Although Lu Qing complained, he also noticed that Dai Shikai didn't eat too much at night. Lu Qing only knew the background of Akai's family, but he never inquired about his family.
Although Akai didn't say anything, this time, he was indeed ill-considered. Thinking of this, after the two went home and got off the car, Lu Qing pulled each other again, ordered some skewers at the supper stall downstairs, and ate beer until eleven o'clock at night.
"Eat and drink enough, and you can go on the road at night." Seeing that the time was almost up, the two walked out of the restaurant satisfied.
"What you said is really unlucky." Lu Qing gave him a blank look.
"Hey, that's all I said...... The reason why I pestered you to eat a good meal is because I always feel that this mission will be a long and painful process, and maybe I won't even be able to eat the good ones. Dai Shikai didn't know that his crow's mouth was really very effective.
When he stood in the rice field under the scorching sun, holding a sickle in his hand, and harvesting the wheat with the help of others, Dai Shikai really wanted to turn back the clock and let him go back to this night, slap himself hard, and tell himself not to talk nonsense.
Otherwise, what people sometimes say casually can really easily become reality!
In the third district, all the Dream Breakers have been assembled.
"It's quite a lot this time." Xu Zhen counted the Dream Breakers who received the mission notice.
In addition to Dai Shikai, there are four men and one woman.
Among them, there is a foreign man with blonde hair and green eyes who is the most conspicuous, he is less than thirty years old, nearly 1.9 meters tall, with a strong physique, wearing a black suit, which sets off his long legs to be extraordinarily slender and straight.
The man's long golden hair was combed back by him, and he looked meticulous under careful care, and his gestures were also very elegant.
His name is Dominic, and he is a priest in real life and lives in the United States all year round. Before coming here, he didn't even know a word of Chinese. Fortunately, language is not a barrier here, because of the influence of space, dreambreakers from various countries can communicate smoothly.
He is also one of the very few foreign dreamers in District 3, the other being Park Mi-sun from South Korea. As a priest, in addition to presiding over Masses and weddings, Dominique also prayed and confessed to the dying.
Although many people recognize that Chinese Taoist priests and foreign priests have the means to exorcise demons, he was pulled into the space and found that he was no different from ordinary people here. The crosses and holy water used to deal with demons have also become decorations, and only cursed items are an effective means to fight ghosts.
But even so, Dominic still habitually carries his own exorcism items before each mission. This is not only his faith, he firmly believes that one day, these weapons will definitely come in handy.
