Chapter 45: Bow-Shaped God's Descent (Part 3)
"Smell?" Yang Shu rubbed his nose, and suddenly a foul smell rushed into his nasal cavity, "Pah, what is this smell? It's so stinky!"
As Yang Shu spoke, he took out a dozen masks from his pocket and gave one to Xie Mian.
Seeing Xie Mian looking at him doubtfully, Yang Shu chuckled and put on the mask while explaining, "I used to have rhinitis, so I'm used to it."
Xie Mian waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need it.
Seeing that Xie Mian didn't want it, Yang Shu handed the mask to his sister again: "Xiaoxiao, it stinks, put on the mask quickly!"
"Smelly? No, it smells nice here." Yang Xiao sniffed the air with a smile on his face.
She turned around and took off the mask on her brother's face: "Brother, don't wear it. It smells so good, why wear a mask!"
Seeing that his sister insisted that he take off the mask, Yang Shu, who was obsessed with his sister, didn't dare to disobey. He took the mask from his sister's hand, rolled it up, and stuffed it into his pocket.
This cafeteria is very large, it looks to be more than 1,000 square meters, and the interior decoration is a bit like a university cafeteria.
There are three windows in the cafeteria. All the people in white robes are neatly lined up in three rows, with smiles on their faces, waiting patiently for their meals.
The cafeteria was so quiet that one could hardly hear what they were saying. After Yang Shu spoke a few words loudly, he thought that silence was required and spoke in a low voice.
Xie Mian and the other two stood at the back of a shorter line, and from time to time people who had just finished their meals passed by them.
He found that there was a white pill on each of these people's plates.
"It smells so good, so good."
Seeing the food on the white-robed man's plate, Yang Xiao couldn't help but speak in a low voice. She hadn't seen such delicious food for a long time.
After the apocalypse, all the neighbors in the building turned into insect monsters, including their parents. Fortunately, their brother awakened his insect power and they were able to escape from the building.
For over a month, they had been wandering around, often going from one meal to the next. Although her brother was very good at catching insects, she was in poor health and often had trouble making ends meet.
Fortunately they were able to come here.
Although there are only some steamed buns, rice porridge, chicken and cabbage on the plate, it is already very precious to them.
Yang Shu was also a little excited, his stomach had been rumbling for a long time.
Xie Mian stood in line behind Yang Shu and his sister. After they finished their meals, he slowly walked forward and handed them the plate in his hand.
The people who were serving meals were also wearing white robes, but in addition to the white robes, they also wore white masks on their faces, tightly covering their mouths.
Two steamed buns, a small spoonful of chicken nuggets, a small spoonful of cabbage, a bowl of rice porridge, and finally a white pill.
When he saw the person serving the meal putting the pills on the plate, Xie Mian said:
"I don't want pills."
The person serving the food seemed not to have heard Xie Mian's words and continued to put pills on the plate.
Xie Mian moved away from the window with the food tray, but did not leave immediately.
The white-robed man behind Xie Mian stepped forward, and Xie Mian paid attention to the movements of the man serving the meal.
The other party still ordered meals in the order of steamed buns, chicken nuggets, cabbage, rice porridge, and pills.
The movements were smooth, without a single pause, as if it were a machine that never gets tired.
Xie Mian walked slowly with the tray in his hand. When he was about to reach his seat, he pretended to slip and dropped the tray on the ground.
The "clang" sound was particularly loud in the quiet restaurant.
Xie Mian noticed that all the white-robed people in the restaurant were looking at the pill that had fallen to the ground.
It was a look without emotion, but soon a hint of passion was mixed in. Xie Mian saw two words in their eyes - I want to eat!
Because it was so close, the pill rolled to Yang Xiao's feet.
Yang Xiao's eyes kept following the pill. When she saw the pill rolling to her feet, she bent down with trembling body and quickly put the pill into her mouth.
Xie Mian saw satisfaction in Yang Xiao's eyes.
After Yang Xiao took the pill, all the people in white robes in the cafeteria who were staring at the pill withdrew their gaze and began to concentrate on eating the food on their plates.
"Yang Xiao, what are you doing? Those are Brother Xie's pills, how can you take them?"
After seeing his sister eat Xie Mian's pill, Yang Shu was very angry. He didn't expect his sister to be so greedy. In his opinion, this pill that could cure his sister's heart disease must be extremely valuable.
"Thank you, brother. I'm sorry. Let me give you my pills!"
Yang Shu picked up his pill and wanted to give it to Xie Mian.
Xie Mian looked at Yang Shu's embarrassed expression, took out a piece of paper and placed it on his palm, then took the pill.
"Thank you, brother. Your food is spilled too. You can eat mine."
"No, I'm not hungry. You eat. I have something else to do and left early."
Xie Mian took the pills and walked back along the route he remembered. When he saw a trash can on the side of the road, he threw the tissue wrapped around the pills into the trash can.
After returning to his living room, Xie Mian washed his hands carefully before letting E Shifang take out some food from the space to eat.
"Would you like some instant noodles?"
E Shifang took out a bucket of instant noodles from the space.
Xie Mian shook his head. The instant noodles smelled too strong. If it caused unnecessary trouble, it would not be worth it. It would be better to eat something simple.
He ate a small packet of biscuits with ham and drank half a bottle of mineral water.
E Shifang was showing off his spicy noodles and saw that Xie Mian had half a bottle of water left on the table, so he picked it up and put it in his mouth.
"you--"
Seeing Xie Xie's hesitation, Goose Shifang felt happy. There was still a lot of mineral water in its space, and it deliberately drank what Xie Mian had left.
Don’t think it doesn’t know what indirect kissing is. Geese know a lot, okay!
"Don't eat so many spicy noodles, be careful of getting a sore throat."
"Haha, haha, haha." Don't worry, wife, I'm fine!
Xie Mian hadn't expected that Goose Shifang actually loved spicy noodles like a child. The two pale yellow goose beaks were reddened by the spiciness, looking like they were roasted.
It was already completely dark, and footsteps could be heard in the corridor. It seemed that the man in white robe had returned after dinner.
Xie Mian looked through the window at the crowded white-robed people upstairs, and the smiles on their faces became more and more intense.
Looking at the raised corners of these people's mouths, Xie Mian had a guess in his mind.
Maybe he needs to catch a man in white robe to verify it.

late at night.
Xie Mian lay on the bed with his hands behind his head.
E Shifang went to visit his father at night. Xie Mian originally didn't want E Shifang to go because E Shifang's white feathers were too conspicuous, but he couldn't stand E Shifang being so annoying and promised that he would be absolutely fine.
Xie Mian is the only one in the room now.
He stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, thinking carefully about everything he had seen and heard here during the day.
"whee--"
“Hehehe——”
Just as he was thinking about the strange scene in the cafeteria, he suddenly heard bursts of laughter coming from outside the window.
