Chapter 62: The Back Kitchen

I felt the hairs on my body stand on end. The door has never been closed, although this dumpling restaurant is large, but it is too quiet inside. What we said, I didn't know which one of them was heard by the boss. If you want to harm us, you will really catch a turtle in an urn.

I immediately motioned for them to speak quietly, and they were about to stand up and close the door.

I had only taken two steps before I could barely hold back my screams. For I saw a figure in the darkness outside the door, and by the light reflected in the box, I recognized the boss.

I was a little dazed, and I didn't know for a while whether to pretend to say hello as if nothing happened, or to warn Qin Yiheng and Bai Kai.

Just as I hesitated, the boss retreated and disappeared into the darkness again. I don't know if I went downstairs or if I was ready to wait for an opportunity to start.

I simply closed the door to at least give me some peace of mind. The palms of my hands have been sweating a lot unconsciously.

Turning around, Bai Kai and Qin Yiheng both looked at me in surprise. I swallowed and gestured to tell them, and the boss eavesdropped on them outside the door.

Bai Kai was the first to stand up, leaned his head on the door and listened for a while, shaking his head at me, meaning that he didn't hear anything.

Isn't this nonsense in my heart! Do you want you to hear or call it eavesdropping? But I couldn't say a word, because I suddenly realized that closing the door was a fatal mistake. It is equivalent to blocking their own back road, and now once the boss does something, we can't immediately detect it, and once the door is killed, we can only jump out of the window.

I whispered to Bai Kaidao, what should I do? Is the boss Wong Tai Sin?

Bai Kai and Qin Yiheng exchanged glances, Xiao Que, rest assured. I can cover it with Professor Qin. So, let's get a bureau here, you go downstairs and call the boss up, and if you can't call him, bring him up. Do you understand?

I quickly shook my head, no! Eight old men can't handle that boss! Isn't it just death if I go?

Bai Kai patted me on the back, it's okay, it's okay, you're young, you're young. And you think, the boss must want to catch them all, and if you go out alone, it's not easy for him to do it.

Bai Kai's theory is obviously untenable. But I thought, maybe this is the only way they can think of it right now. The ease of what I said comforted me, but behind it was also a last resort. I glanced at Qin Yiheng, and he nodded slightly at me.

I said in my heart, "The wind and the waves have come." If they really wanted to kill me, they wouldn't have waited until today. Taking a deep breath, I opened the door and walked out.

The darkness in the hallway engulfed me in an instant, waiting for the white door to open and close. All of a sudden, I couldn't see my fingers.

I waited for my eyes to adjust to the darkness before slowly walking downstairs.

I walked very slowly, firstly, because I was worried that something unexpected would happen. Second, I am really unfamiliar with this dumpling restaurant, so I have to be cautious.

The boss was nowhere to be seen, and he couldn't feel his presence when he listened to the movement.

I had a slight suspicion that the boss was already gone.

After going down the stairs, the hall on the first floor was empty. I don't know if I should make some noise, so quietly and silently, obviously guarded, if I am bumped into by the boss again, it will be equivalent to tearing my face. In that case, whether it is invited or introduced, the boss may not obediently follow me.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard some dangdang sounds in the hall.

The sound was very crisp, like something hitting the wood.

I instantly reacted to the sound of someone chopping vegetables on the board. Looking for prestige, the direction from which it seems to come is the back kitchen.

Could it be that the boss not only didn't want to hurt us, but also prepared supper for us?

I stood on tiptoe and quietly touched it. Found the door to the back kitchen.

Sure enough, the voice came from inside.

I've been to the restaurant countless times, but I've never been in the back kitchen. I don't know what kind of structure is inside.

I didn't dare to open the door rashly, the door of this back kitchen is different from the outside, it is a metal door, I am afraid that there will be a sound when I open it.

After thinking about it, it seems that the boss didn't notice that I was coming down. I just waited patiently for a while, until the noise inside stopped. I found a corner and hid to prepare for another plan.

After a while, the boss pushed open the door and came out. There was also a plate in his hand.

I couldn't make out what was on the plate. The boss seemed to be pleased with the dish, staring at the plate and muttering from time to time.

The more I looked at it, the more weird it became, because I realized that the boss didn't seem to be talking to himself.

It's a conversation with what's on the plate.

Could it be a living creature? But how could a living creature be put on a plate? Is the co-author a Japanese food? Eaten raw? Even then, you don't have to talk to what you eat, do you? Hello, I'm going to eat you today, are you happy? So?

I pricked up my ears, but I couldn't hear what my boss was saying.

I saw him stand in place for a while, then turned around and went back to the back kitchen. This surprised me a little, and I didn't know if I should follow it for a while. I'm afraid that he just found out that there was less spice and it came out soon.

After waiting for a while, the boss came out again, with another plate in his hand.

This time he did not delay much, put the two plates on the table nearby, and went upstairs alone.

I listened to his footsteps and walked away before coming out of the corner. With Bai Kai and Qin Yiheng in charge, there shouldn't be much of a problem.

Besides, I also successfully completed the task, and the boss threw himself into the net, so I didn't need to lead me at all.

I was very curious about those two plates, and when I looked at them, I was stunned. I saw that the two plates were full of raw meat. The boss is really a chef and has good knife skills. Each piece of meat is cut neatly and stacked neatly.

I said in my heart, is it really Wong Tai Sin? This is not a hot pot restaurant either, who has nothing to do with raw meat on a plate? What's more, this meat is very thickly cut, and it is obviously not used to eat hot pot.

I didn't dare to touch it, so I sniffed it with my nose, and the smell of blood was very strong. Such a heavy smell of blood does not look like meat bought from the vegetable market.

I hit a clever one, is the boss now slaughtering livestock? Or something else?

With that in mind, I slipped into the back kitchen and cautiously opened the door.

Suddenly, a very strong smell of blood rushed straight to his brain. I didn't care about anything else at this time, so I reached out and touched the power source, and immediately turned on the light. Because I had an ominous premonition in my heart that the boss might not have killed livestock, but a person.

The back kitchen was cleaned up, and there was no blood at a glance.

I don't know if the boss cleaned it just now, or if the place where the knife was fired is not here.

The back kitchen is not big, and of course for a dumpling restaurant, it is still very spacious. There was a kitchen knife standing on the board, and I pulled it out. There was no trace left on the kitchen knife.

I looked around with a kitchen knife, and now that I had a weapon in my hand, I wasn't afraid.

But I looked at every corner and didn't find any animal or human carcasses. There was a large freezer in the kitchen, but it was empty, and it wasn't even plugged in.

The more I searched, the more surprised I became, and I was unwilling to go back like this. I had to start one cabinet door after another, and turn up the cabinets.

This search has really made a discovery. In the cupboard on the ground floor, there was a bloodstained outfit and a pair of black leather shoes.

The surface of the leather shoes was also full of bloodstains, and what was even stranger was that there were even more blood stains on the inside of the shoes, which were almost soaked. I recalled, and the dress belonged to the boss. With so much blood, I am even more convinced that there has just been a life in this kitchen.

I picked up those leather shoes, and that's what made me very weird. The boss is a chef and must have experience in slaughtering. Even if there is a mistake or an emergency, blood splatters on the clothes. But why is there so much blood in the shoes? Could it be that the boss took off his shoes and used the knife? That's why blood spills in?

When he went out just now, I really ignored whether he was wearing shoes or not. Even the clothes have changed, and the shoes must have been prepared in advance.

I put my shoes on the floor, trying to simulate where the blood would spill in.

Suddenly, I had a wit, because I suddenly thought of another possibility. There is a possibility that blood will flow into the shoes without taking them off.

That's the blood, not splattered on the boss. It's his own flow. That's why the blood will flow down the thighs and into the shoes, and more blood will fall into the shoes when you take them off.

If so, is that meat the boss's own?

I was able to cut off so much of my own flesh, and I went upstairs as if nothing happened. Damn, that boss is really not human?
