Upon seeing the uniform gazes fixed upon them, their faces instantly drained of color.

One of them screamed in terror, the sharp, piercing sound breaking the deathly silence of the restaurant.

Immediately afterwards, his body tilted backward uncontrollably and he fell heavily to the ground.

The cutlery and food in her hands scattered all over the floor, making a crisp and chaotic sound that contrasted sharply with the surrounding silence.

The other person was so frightened by what he saw that his legs went weak and he almost couldn't stand up.

He eventually staggered a few steps and fell to the ground in a disheveled state, his eyes filled with fear and confusion, completely unable to understand why this sudden and bizarre turn of events had occurred.

This happened so suddenly, but all the players tacitly avoided the two of them.

Just then, the female manager spoke, her sinister gaze like a sharp blade in the cold night, landing precisely on the player who had slammed the table first.

A strange smile curved her lips, her tone carrying an undeniable danger: "You like cooked food? Only humans are addicted to the rotten taste of cooked food. Could it be... you're human?"

The atmosphere in the restaurant froze instantly as the words were spoken.

At that moment, all the staff members shared the same expression, and their eyes gleamed with excitement, a kind of fervor akin to discovering prey.

They began to scrutinize the two players from head to toe with an almost greedy gaze, as if they were assessing some precious treasure.

Some people's throats bobbed involuntarily, and a strange smile appeared on their lips. They looked drooling and impatient, as if they were about to pounce on the food at any moment.

Upon hearing this, the other players in the restaurant were stunned, their faces filled with astonishment and fear.

Xiao Jin sat to the side, witnessing all of this, but her face showed no surprise whatsoever.

She had long suspected that the 'Ghost Restaurant' was not only a place run by ghosts, but also served ghosts.

The dishes that had just been served were merely confirmation of Xiao Jin's idea. Most of the vegetarian dishes were cold, and all the meat dishes were served raw.

For the vengeful ghost, the flowing blood is the most delicious delicacy!

Some ghosts still retain human characteristics, like the female manager. If it weren't for her strange expression and temperament, she would look exactly like a normal human.

On the contrary, the players, who unknowingly revealed their true colors, are likely to be in trouble.

Originally, both sides tacitly agreed that if you wanted to experience the service of human society, then I would open a restaurant like that. But someone had to be so foolish as to self-destruct, eagerly coming to have their food delivered.

"No, no, no... I'm not..."

The player was so frightened by the question that he almost jumped out of his skin. Seeing the female manager getting closer, he dared not admit it and kept shaking his head.

"I'm not human, I really am not, I..."

Before the male player who slammed the table could finish speaking, the female manager had already taken two or three steps to stand in front of him, and the air seemed to freeze at that moment.

Her steps were light and swift. In the blink of an eye, the female manager leaped out like an arrow, her long fingernails gleaming coldly under the light, instantly slicing across the other person's throat.

"Huh~" The man's eyes widened, his pupils filled with terror and disbelief.

He instinctively reached out and covered his bleeding throat, blood gushing out like a fountain, staining his clothes red. He let out a weak groan as if pleading for help, the sound particularly shrill in the noisy environment.

In the end, his body went limp and he fell heavily to the ground, still clutching a nano-therapy needle in his hand before he died.

Upon seeing this, some of the surrounding players instinctively screamed in terror, including Xiao Xin, who was not far away.

The blood that spurted out when the female manager slit her throat landed right on her, and Xiao Xin's voice was sharp and piercing.

However, the next second her gaze met the female manager's cold eyes, and Xiao Xin's scream seemed to be choked by an invisible force, instantly stopping.

The female manager's gaze was like two sharp swords, sweeping over everyone present, making them feel an indescribable chill rise from the bottom of their hearts, as if even breathing had become difficult.

The entire scene fell into a deathly silence, with players on high alert, fearing they might be the next to be killed.

Another player was equally terrified. He collapsed to the ground, filled with deep regret, and mentally slapped himself.

You're so quick-witted, so clever, why do you keep agreeing with everything?

Here, under the watchful eyes of all the players, the female manager gracefully extended her slender tongue and gently licked the blood from her fingertip, a look of intriguing satisfaction appearing on her face.

Then, her gaze casually fell on the person sitting on the ground.

"You're human too, aren't you?" The tone was unquestioning, as if it were certain, and the speaker expertly moved closer to them.

The lessons learned from the past, like a bloody warning sign, stood right before Chen Mingchuan's eyes.

At that moment, he could almost feel the cold, sharp claws gently slicing across his neck. The threat of death caused sweat to gush out of his body like a flood.

Chen Mingchuan's body trembled uncontrollably. At this critical moment of life and death, countless thoughts were frantically intertwining in Chen Mingchuan's mind.

Suddenly, a glimmer of light pierced the darkness. He jerked his head up and hurriedly exclaimed, "I'm not human! I'm really not human! I was just joking! You won't believe me, look..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Mingchuan acted faster than he said. Almost instinctively, he grabbed the raw chicken leg that he had just knocked to the ground. The chicken leg was still covered in dust and a little blood.

However, in the face of the threat of death, all of this becomes insignificant.

Chen Mingchuan closed his eyes, then lowered his head and bit down hard. Suppressing the urge to vomit, he chewed voraciously while speaking to the female manager.

"Mmm...look, I ate it, it's delicious...mmm..."

"Holy crap, that's insane!" The surrounding players stared wide-eyed, speechless.

Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow, put down his long sword, and sat back down around the dining table, secretly admiring the man's quick reaction.

Sure enough, the female manager paused in her tracks as Chen Mingchuan acted madly.

She glanced at Chen Mingchuan, who was eating while forcing a smile and pretending to enjoy the food, then slowly withdrew her nails, and the elegant smile from before returned to her face.

Even the waiters around them returned to normal, instantly breaking the oppressive atmosphere of the entire hall.
