Chapter 139

The couple, covered in blood, stood behind the thief, who was still rummaging through the drawers without noticing anything.

Just as he turned over the table, the reflection on the table finally made him realize that there was something standing behind him. He turned his head in horror, and the couple smiled at him.

"Let's go." Shen Yunzhe quickly ran to the bathroom, "Get rid of the mirror first!"

Ma Ran and Yan Yuan quickly followed, and the three of them went into the bathroom first. Shen Yunzhe locked the bathroom door, and the thief's miserable screams were heard outside.

This sound lasted much longer than that of the hostess, a crunching sound, like a thief being eaten bit by bit. He screamed for a full three minutes before the sound died down.

"Thief, and other thieves."

"Where?"

"It's really unlucky. We need to drive all the thieves out."

"Found it."

Shen Yunzhe took a step back. The bathroom door slammed shut. Through the frosted glass of the bathroom, he could clearly see two people standing outside. Blood was seeping in through the gap in the door. The man was holding the door handle and pushing the door continuously.

"The thief is here!"

“Kill them!”

"Yun Xi! There are two mirrors here!" Ma Ran shouted, "And neither of them can reflect anyone!"

Shen Yunzhe looked at him in surprise. He quickly looked inside and found that it was indeed the case. Although it was Box No. 7 of the Happy Dumpling Restaurant, it was actually the home of a young couple. The home would be equipped with a washbasin and shower room, and different mirrors were installed in these two areas.

Shen Yunzhe put his hand on it, but the mirror was foggy and there was nothing in it. He couldn't see anything.

It was not covered with black cloth, so it should be the same as the one in Box No. 5.

"Get out of the way." Shen Yunzhe took out a piece of mirror fragment from his pocket. He had taken these from the bathroom on the first floor before. He gave one to Xing Ruomiao, and Codename Xiwang took one, so he had one left.

Holding the fragment in the mirror, Shen Yunzhe carefully observed the reflection in the fragment, trying to find the eye.

Ma Ran was not idle either. He began to look for flaws in the other mirror. Only Yan Yuan stood at the farthest point of the door, and it seemed that he didn't want to get close to the mirror or the door at all.

Shen Yunzhe was too lazy to care about him.

Bang bang bang!

The bathroom door kept being knocked, and more and more blood was flowing out. It was impossible for such a large amount of blood to come out of two people's bodies. Seeing that the blood was getting more and more, Shen Yunzhe stared at the bloodstains and shouted at the two of them.

"Get up high and avoid touching the blood!"

As he spoke, Shen Yunzhe climbed directly onto the mirror cabinet. Ma Ran was also surprised and stepped on the nearby toilet. Only Yan Yuan, who was standing farthest away, was stunned. He wanted to find a high place, but he was really standing too far away, and in order to facilitate his escape, he chose a blind spot without any obstacles.

He wanted to run away, but the next moment blood suddenly rushed in, blocking his steps, and he stepped back in horror.

"Jump!" Ma Ran shouted at him, "Yan Yuan, jump over here!"

"No, I can't jump over!" Yan Yuan's voice was filled with tears, "It's too far, I can't jump over."

"Are you stupid? You'll never be able to jump over if you don't jump!" Ma Ran slammed the door angrily, "If you delay any longer, you really won't be able to jump over!"

Yan Yuan shook his head and kept backing away.

"Get on the windowsill!" Shen Yunzhe called him, "Hurry up!"

Yan Yuan finally discovered that there was a window on his right. The window eaves were very narrow, but there was no way out now. He quickly went over and climbed up, but before he could really climb up, blood stained the soles of his feet. Yan Yuan opened his eyes wide, and the scene was dead silent.

The blood stuck to the soles of his feet, and he finally couldn't hold on any longer. He fell to the ground with weak hands and feet, and blood covered his body.

“No, no…”

The blood seemed to have finally found its target. It came alive and entangled Yan Yuan in an instant. It solidified together and wrapped Yan Yuan. Yan Yuan kept screaming. The blood seeped into his skin little by little, leaving a trail of blood. Yan Yuan's screams were suppressed in his broken throat, and he could only vomit blood when he opened his mouth.

He was pulled back little by little, merging with the blood as he was pulled. By the time he reached the bathroom door, he had completely melted and was pulled out like a pool of sticky syrup.

Shen Yunzhe and Ma Ran looked at each other, and the fear in Ma Ran's eyes could still not be cleared.

Ma Ran was also a newcomer in the second game field. He had gone through the first novice game field, but he had not adapted to the horror of the game field at all.

"Find a way to open the mirror right now!" Shen Yunzhe said, "The special dishes are coming out! The waiter is still outside!"

Shen Yunzhe quickly continued to use the mirror, and at this moment, he finally saw an eye in the lens. The eye was smiling. It was obviously just an eyeball, but Shen Yunzhe knew it was smiling.

After estimating the position, Shen Yunzhe grabbed the fragment and stabbed it hard.

A sharp scream was heard, and the eyes exploded. Thick, black, and smelly blood flowed directly onto the mirror. Soon, a thin film appeared outside the mirror. Shen Yunzhe pulled off the film, and the mirror immediately reflected Shen Yunzhe's figure. At this moment, more sounds were heard from outside.

"Damn rat! My eyes!"

"But it doesn't matter, the food is here."

"Guests, I'm here to serve you the special dishes and collect the plates."

"Is it delicious? Yes, our specialties are the best. I wonder how many people want to try our dishes!"

Ma Ran also heard the sound, "Oh no! The waiter has entered the private room!"

Shen Yunzhe got down from the mirror cabinet and said, "Go into the mirror world immediately and take away the special dishes. I'll go and calm the waiter down."

"No way? This is too dangerous!"

"Hurry up!" Shen Yunzhe said, "I'm fine."

Ma Ran did not waste any time. He quickly got into the mirror. Shen Yunzhe opened the bathroom door at the same time. The next moment, the waiter and the couple outside the door all looked at him. There was a strange dish on the originally empty table.

The sticky flesh and blood piled on the plate looked quite disgusting, but Shen Yunzhe still remembered that this thing was once a living person.

The waitress's left eye had exploded, leaving only a bloody hole. She stared at Shen Yunzhe intently, her throat filled with suppressed anger, "Rat!"

"Guest, there are mice in your house!"

"It's okay. Our Happy Dumpling Restaurant has always prioritized the customer experience. I'll help you get rid of this rat now."

As he spoke, the waiter walked towards Shen Yunzhe step by step. Shen Yunzhe stood there without moving. He glanced at the waiter, then looked at the young couple standing there indifferently. The young couple was covered in blood, and the wounds on their necks were still bleeding. The body of the thief was lying on the floor not far away.

"I want to save you." Shen Yunzhe suddenly spoke.

"I'm a police officer." Shen Yunzhe looked at the young couple not far away. "I came here after receiving a report. I heard that a thief broke into your house?"

The young couple rolled their eyes, tilted their heads, and looked at Shen Yunzhe together.

The waiter pulled the knife from his chest.

"Don't you want to be rescued?" Shen Yunzhe raised his voice. "You just moved into a new home and are looking forward to the future. But because of a thief, you can no longer continue your life? Are you really willing to accept this?"

Shen Yunzhe said, "You have been praying for the police to come and rescue you, and now I am here."

"Someone who can save you is here!"

The waiter's knife was grabbed and the host opened his mouth to speak, but blood kept gushing out and he couldn't say anything.

The hostess's voice rang out, "How can we be rescued?"

"Mr. Policeman."

I believe it! Shit! I believe it!

Shen Yunzhe cheered in his heart and almost danced around. Of course, there was no expression on his face and he looked quite serious and calm.

In fact, he had no idea. He simply thought about it and since he had synchronized the code name Forensic Doctor more often and had a police aura, he took the risk and tried it. Of course, he also used the abilities of Code Name Fraudster and Code Name Erosion.

"She's the thief's accomplice. Otherwise, why would a thief break into the house right after you got the takeaway?" Shen Yunzhe said, "She reappeared now to help the thief."

The waiter opened his eyes wide and stared at Shen Yunzhe angrily, "Rat!"

"Would you believe a restaurant waiter who had been in trouble, or the police?" Shen Yunzhe raised his voice.

It is obvious that the waiters are puppets created by the game field, but the strange creatures in the box still have a trace of thinking, and they certainly believe the police.

The couple walked towards the waiter step by step.

"Guests! You can't listen to the mice! They'll steal your specialties!"

"Guest! Don't be stubborn!"

"guest!!"

The hostess's voice kept ringing, and the host also opened his mouth, as if responding to the hostess.

"Thief!"

"Accomplice of the thief! Damn it!"

Shen Yunzhe immediately added fuel to the fire, "Look, how could there be a waiter pointing fingers at customers? Maybe he's not even an employee of the Happy Dumpling House!"

"It's just to trick you into opening the door and letting the thief in!"

"I smell blood on it. How could a restaurant waiter smell of blood?"

Blood flowed from the couple's bodies and gathered at their feet. The couple stared at the waitress dimly and instantly turned into invisible blood men. The blood quickly wrapped around the waitress. The waitress opened her mouth and started to bite, but she couldn't bite through the pool of blood at all.

Seeing the chaos at the scene, Shen Yunzhe noticed that the sticky flesh and blood on the table had disappeared. He immediately understood that Ma Ran in the mirror world had taken the things away.

Not only Shen Yunzhe, but even the waiter noticed this.

"Rat!" the waiter roared, "You stole the food from the dumpling restaurant!"

Shen Yunzhe turned around and ran to the bathroom. He ran to the mirror and was about to enter the mirror world directly, but stopped as if he remembered something.

He turned his head and looked behind him, but the shower mirror still couldn't reflect anyone.

Shen Yunzhe walked to the mirror.

"Is this also a mirror world?"

But Shen Yunzhe no longer had the mirror fragments, so he couldn't find the eye just by looking.

But he always felt that it was a bit strange to put two mirrors in one box.

[World B03415, codenamed Sleep Disorder, is synchronizing, with a 100% synchronization rate.]

Shen Yunzhe was stunned for a moment.

[The abilities you gain will be enhanced during synchronization. The abilities of Codename Sleeper are enough to allow you to directly enter another dimension in the mirror.]

【Good luck. 】

Shen Yunzhe's hand got stuck in the mirror, and he was instantly swallowed by the mirror without warning. Then he felt himself fall into a very dark and cold place. Shen Yunzhe stood up and looked around, and found that it was the same here as outside the mirror.

However, unlike the brightness of the mirror world, this place is like an abandoned basement.

"Oh my god? Where is this place?" Shen Yunzhe got up from the ground. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket after a long time and clicked on the announcement on his phone. Unfortunately, there was nothing on the announcement. It was empty and still the same as before.

"Tsk." Shen Yunzhe tutted, "How useless."

Putting the phone back into his pocket, Shen Yunzhe looked around, "A strange space where there's not even an announcement?"

"It's full of twists and turns." Shen Yunzhe was very interested.

…

This place is weird, what's weird about it?

It is different from the Happy Dumpling Restaurant that appeared at the beginning, and even more different from the dumpling restaurant in the mirror world. After taking a walk around, Shen Yunzhe confirmed: this is more like a real dumpling restaurant.

There were rotten fish and shrimp in the kitchen, and dishes that had not been washed yet. In the private room, one could see some small bits and pieces left behind by the guests that they forgot to take away, including a few cigarettes, a few lighters, some little girls' hair ties, and some tissues. This undoubtedly indicated that this might be the original Happy Dumpling Restaurant.

After making sure that the cigarette was still good, Shen Yunzhe lit one for himself. He didn't smoke it, but walked from the front to the back with the cigarette in his mouth. The wind blew in, blowing the smell of cigarette everywhere. Shen Yunzhe narrowed his eyes slightly and determined the biggest difference between here and outside.

There is the sound of wind, there is air, it is the flowing popularity.

Playgrounds were normal places in the beginning, but they gradually evolved into playgrounds after being invaded by strange creatures, and finally degenerated into their current horrible appearance.

"Two mirrors." Shen Yunzhe muttered vaguely, cigarette in his mouth. "One mirror leads to the mirror world, and the other mirror leads to the real dumpling restaurant."

"One mirror is used to complete the task, and the other mirror..." Shen Yunzhe showed a sly smile, "is used to find a medium."

"There must be a medium here!"

A restaurant may not necessarily have an owner, but it will definitely have a chef and waiters. The quality of a restaurant generally depends on the ability of the chef.

Shen Yunzhe went downstairs. He picked up the menu from the front desk and looked at it as he walked.

It was no longer the "seeing joy as seeing evil" menu at the beginning. This menu was really a menu. It listed various dishes and staple foods. The prices were reasonable and the portions looked good. As Shen Yunzhe was flipping through the menu, he saw that there was an extra page on the menu, and there was a line of words written on that extra page.

[Limited Secret Menu: Wedding Banquet, Price: 388.]

"Wow, so trendy! They're even doing limited edition blind boxes." Shen Yunzhe tapped the menu. "If it were me, I would definitely order this!"

Shen Yunzhe sighed, but threw the menu to the ground and went into the kitchen. The kitchen was filled with a strange smell, the smell of rotting vegetables and meat was very overpowering. Shen Yunzhe had to twist his nose and hold his breath to stay here. In addition to these rotten ingredients, he saw a lot of lists posted on the chef's seat.

Every list has the word 'wedding banquet' on it.

Shen Yunzhe pinched his nose and counted them, and there were actually eighteen of them.

"Is it eighteen?" Shen Yunzhe suddenly asked, "Huh? Did I count wrong just now?"

[I didn’t count wrong, it’s eighteen.]

Shen Yunzhe ignored the system. He counted the list again and confirmed that there were indeed 18 of them before he nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave the kitchen.

"So many people are ordering this wedding banquet." Shen Yunzhe murmured as he walked. "Obviously, the other dishes are very cheap, but this menu is very expensive. Everyone prefers blind boxes. How much is it?"

Shen Yunzhe tried to recall it, but couldn't remember.

"never mind."

He no longer considered the price and turned to go into the changing area next door. The chef needed to come to the store to change into chef uniforms, and the waiters also had to wear uniforms, so a changing room was still necessary.

In the dressing room, Shen Yunzhe saw a spread-out cookbook with color pictures, which turned out to be a very familiar scene.

Shen Yunzhe had seen this dish in box number four, a huge pig's head.

【Blind Box Wedding Dish ④: Pig's Head.】

[Ingredients: One pig's head, one portion of marinated ingredients, and some irremovable jealousy and hatred.]

"What a weird recipe!" Shen Yunzhe looked at the recipe. "It doesn't even have a cooking method. It's unacceptable and should be sent back for rewriting!"

Shen Yunzhe picked up the recipe, and at this moment, a piece of paper fell from the recipe.

"Here it comes! The little note from the horror game." Shen Yunzhe picked up the paper. "Why do you always use this method to pass on messages? It's the information age now. Why can't you send the background story directly to my phone?"

"Oh, I forgot, the only people who could tell me the backstory on my phone were the livestream viewers, and they're completely dead now."

Shen Yunzhe was happy. He stopped complaining about the cliché and began to look at the white paper with great interest.

[To the chef reading this, I don't know who you are, but I was your previous chef and have resigned. If you see this, I suggest you do the same as me and leave as soon as possible!]

Don't stay and don't follow the recipe!

【Don’t even try the dishes on the menu!!】

That was the end of the news. Shen Yunzhe sighed, "I thought I'd see something even more exciting, but this is it?"

He picked up the cookbook and began to flip through it. As he was flipping through it, a piece of cut newspaper fell out of the cookbook. This must have been put there by the previous chef.

Unfolding the newspaper steadily, Shen Yunzhe saw the report clearly.

"The phenomenal internet-famous restaurant - Happiness Dumpling House."

"Blind box dishes are incredibly popular and have become a new trend. Countless people have made reservations, and seats are already booked until next year! Let's interview some of the people who have tried them."

[It was really delicious. I am drooling just thinking about it now.]

[It's a taste I've never imagined. I don't think I'll ever eat anything more delicious in my life!]

I want to eat there again, so I booked another table. I will definitely not eat for two days!

[It’s so delicious, so delicious! ]

Looking at the exaggerated report above, Shen Yunzhe whistled. He opened the menu to look at the dishes and confirmed that these dishes were very simple, to the extent that Shen Yunzhe, who was not very good at cooking, could replicate them. It was really strange that such a riot could be achieved.

Shen Yunzhe looked at the report with a smile. He lit another cigarette for himself, but he still didn't smoke it, letting it burn slowly.

Just when the cigarette was about to burn to the butt, Shen Yunzhe pressed the cigarette butt on the newspaper, and the newspaper suddenly caught fire.

“What a pity.”

Shen Yunzhe complained sincerely, "Such a delicious restaurant closed down before I even got to go there."
