Undercover in a World of Uncanny Rules

The first time Bai Tao woke up after her death, she found herself thrown into a world of uncanny rules by the world's consciousness, becoming an ordinary human.

Her neighbor is a talking ...

Chapter 030 Yu Ji Seafood Restaurant (Part 4)

Chapter 030 Yu Ji Seafood Restaurant (Part 4)

Bai Tao grabbed Zhang Yi by the collar and pulled her back.

The collar got stuck on Zhang Yi's neck, and the pain made her wake up.

"Thank you." She said, and took two steps back in panic. The ghost story copy was completely different from what she had imagined. Two sheets of rule paper, sixteen rules, and she was sure that she had not violated any of the rules.

What is scary is not dying, but not knowing why you die.

Zhang Yi's face looked a little ugly, but when she saw the pink on Bai Tao's head, she breathed a sigh of relief imperceptibly. Fortunately, there was Huajia, an old player, who was sometimes quite reliable.

Bai Tao: "It seems that we can only change the way to communicate with the chef. Offense or defense?"

Zhang Yi: “?” What does that mean?

"If you don't say anything, I'll assume that you choose to defend." Bai Tao took out a napkin from his pocket.

Zhang Yi was even more confused. What was the use of napkins?

Bai Tao wiped the blood off the ground with a napkin, then crumpled the napkin and the stone into a ball and threw it into the rabbit's mouth with force, then turned around and walked away quickly - she remembered that running was prohibited in the restaurant.

"Ouch." The chef stopped what he was doing in pain, looked up angrily to find the culprit, and saw Bai Tao's running back.

Her hatred was instantly drawn away, and she chased after him with a kitchen knife in her hand. Blood dripped from the knife to the ground. She wanted to cut this bold human into pieces and throw him into the pot to cook!

Zhang Yi: “…” She wanted to beat herself up for thinking that Huajia was reliable a minute ago.

The pressure from the monster made Zhang Yi feel difficult to breathe. Looking at the knife in the chef's hand, she wanted to run away immediately.

The chef doesn't care about the timid human at all. She has only one target in her eyes - Bai Tao.

Zhang Yi: “…” OK, now the only guy who could prevent her from entering the kitchen is gone.

It'll be fine, just some mental pollution.

Under the gaze of many diners, Zhang Yi plucked up her courage and walked into the kitchen...

The kitchen looked clean and tidy, but as soon as Zhang Yi entered, she knew what seeing is deceiving. There was a layer of stains on the floor, as if she had stepped on a carpet, but it was much stickier than that. Zhang Yi had to use twice the strength to lift her feet.

Damn, you can't tell that from the bunny-headed chef at all.

The place was filled with the smell of blood and an indescribable delicious aroma. Zhang Yi twisted his thigh hard and covered his mouth and nose before he dared to continue exploring.

The piece of unprocessed meat on the chopping board was still jumping.

Appetite and nausea appeared in her mind at the same time.

Zhang Yi thought inappropriately that she didn't want to eat meat anymore in her life, and she wanted to be a vegetarian after she got out.

Zhang Yi didn't move, and he didn't dare to move either. He just observed with his eyes. Various shelves and cabinets, vegetables and eggs. She saw many dishes that were the same as in the real world, but the only meat in the kitchen was the piece of meat that the rabbit chef was processing on the chopping board.

It's normal, except that there is no seafood in the kitchen of the seafood restaurant.

——There’s not even a container for the shrimps here.

In addition, Zhang Yi did not find any weapons in the kitchen. There was not even a kitchen knife or a machete. In the entire kitchen, the only person who might be found was the Rabbit Head with a knife in his hand.

Zhang Yi saw a door, a door that was not mentioned in the rules. There was only a door frame, blocked by a curtain. Zhang Yi turned sideways and saw a fish jumping on the ground through the gap.

But nothing more can be seen.

She had reached the deepest part of the kitchen. She could not see the diners, and the monster diners could not see her either.

Maybe there was a secret to the seafood restaurant inside, and she just had to take a small risk.

The curtain was opened, and Zhang Yi saw the back of a waiter who was so thin that only bones were left. A tentacle drilled into his spine, and the process was very smooth.

It was a huge tentacle, thicker than Zhang Yi's waist, and there were some creatures living in the suction cups of the tentacle.

Octopus, eel, tuna...

The waiter's back swelled up like a balloon, becoming taller and stronger.

Zhang Yi was extremely grateful that she covered her mouth and nose and did not scream. A word appeared in her mind - parasitism.

On the other side, Bai Tao was doing parkour, leading the chef in circles.

While escaping, he was distracted by a glance at the chef who was holding a knife and preparing to chop someone.

The chef strode over, and the distance between them kept shortening.

The diners in front were laughing strangely and were ready to make something. Bai Jingjing stood up to help stop the diners and pointed to the stairs.

The toilet is at the corner of the stairs, which is a safe spot clearly mentioned in the rules.

But Bai Tao had a second choice. She quickly walked up to the second floor where her supervisor was, and she needed to confirm the identity of the recipient.

The recipient of the special express delivery is called Sea Centipede. There are 40 diners in the restaurant, 3 waiters, 1 chef, and 1 supervisor. The supervisor who is most likely the recipient is on the second floor.

Special express delivery because each prompt recipient's name represents the recipient's characteristics.

Sea centipede, sea centipede? Disguise is not impossible.

The second floor is very, very, very quiet. When you get to the second floor, all the sounds from the first floor disappear.

The soundproofing is good, and the other space is the same, the chef didn't catch up.

There was a very long corridor and a magnificent door. In front of the door was a desk where the Kobold Supervisor was sitting behind the desk. There were some documents on the desk.

Bai Tao walked closer, and the supervisor quickly covered the document, but she still saw the word "banquet".

The supervisor stood up and approached Bai Tao: "Guest, you cannot go upstairs without an invitation."

Bai Tao smelled a strong fishy smell from the dog-headed man.

The hairs on the supervisor's face began to wriggle, his dog head became deformed, his teeth fell out, and his facial features shrank. He looked like a crumpled piece of paper, wrinkled, old, and fragile, as if it would crack in the next second, revealing its true appearance.

Before the supervisor could do anything, Bai Tao spoke up: "I met the staff in red clothes."

The rules state that the supervisor can only take charge in two situations: an employee in red clothes appears or the waiter brings the wrong dish.

The supervisor raised his lips, and the abnormality disappeared. He looked up and down with his dog eyes: "Really? This is a big deal. I must handle it well. Please lead the way, sir."

Exposing your back to the enemy is not a good idea, but Hakuto still turns around and leads the way.

Bai Kefen Tao turned around, and she felt the supervisor's vicious gaze passing over her back inch by inch, from top to bottom.

——The supervisor is looking for something on Bai Tao’s body.

"Mr. Director, can I ask what the reward is for finding one of us who is not a human?"

"You don't have to pay for the meal. It's free. Of course, you found the wrong person, but we won't do anything to you."

The supervisor easily told the players about the meal money, and those players would definitely make a fuss over the meal money.

——A little trick to make humans kill each other.

And it doesn’t matter if they really identified the human courier. He won’t recognize him if it’s not in the rules.

"Meal money?" Bai Tao looked shocked, as if she had just thought about having to pay for the meal.

The supervisor nodded and tempted, "You and your friends can eat for free, as long as you find that guy."

Bai Tao said with determination that she would definitely find that person: "Is it free only if I find that guy and report to you? Can the waiter and the chef be okay?"

The Kobold said, "No, you can only find me."

Then the possibility that the waiter and the chef are the recipients is greatly reduced, and the supervisor is more likely to be the suspect.

Bai Tao did not take action immediately. In the copy, the rules of Yu Ji Seafood Restaurant were enforced. If the supervisor was not the recipient, the courier rules would not offset the penalty for Bai Tao's violation of the rules of Yu Ji Seafood Restaurant.

After all, the supervisor may be working for others and it may take a long time, so there is no need to be impatient.

Bai Tao said impatiently, "Mr. Supervisor, can you please walk faster? The employee in red is gone. Don't accuse me of lying."

"Did you really see the employee in red clothes?" The supervisor's voice sounded from the back of Bai Tao's head. He didn't see any red on this human.

The light dimmed and the two shadows overlapped and merged into one.

The back of her head felt cool and reassuring. Bai Tao turned around suddenly and found that the supervisor's head was not touching the back of her head. The distance between them was at least two meters.

Bai Tao's eyes widened, as if her supervisor's words of distrust had caused her great harm: "Of course I saw it. I ran to the second floor because I was chased by the employee in red clothes. You must deal with her immediately."

"Sure, don't worry, now all we have to do is get downstairs."

Bai Tao pretended to be comforted. She took a step forward, and when she was only one second away from landing, she moved her foot to the left and changed her footing.

At the expected landing point, there was a bleeding fish lying there, a scammer fish.

The copy is an old trick, the work of the supervisor.

The appearance of this fraudulent fish made Bai Tao more certain of one thing: red is dangerous in Yu Ji Seafood Restaurant.

The chef was processing the meat and blood was splattered everywhere, but there was no trace of blood on his chef uniform. All diners, including players, did not have any red items on them, and there were also rules.

Therefore, there is only one possibility when the red-clothed employee appears - the player is hallucinating.

The prerequisite for hallucination is the presence of blood on the body. The supervisor looked her up and down, trying to find something red on Bai Tao's body and then get rid of her.

A rule that sets players up for a trap.

There were fish on the ground, which violated another rule.

But there were the words "should" on it, not the rule of death. Bai Tao looked away and saw nothing.

The supervisor took the initiative to pick up the fish on the ground: "I'm sorry, this is negligence on the part of our restaurant. It's so pitiful that the fish is stranded. I have to deal with the employee in red clothes. Can you help me put the fish back into the aquarium?"

"I can ask the waiter to come up. I hate the smell of fish."

The rules on the first rule sheet must be followed by any creature that sets foot in Yu Kee Seafood Restaurant.

Bai Tao put on the grease and ran away immediately. Whoever gets close to the fish will be unlucky, so don't look for her.

Bai Tao looked down from the second floor. Good news: the chef was not guarding the stairs, but returned to the kitchen, and the supervisor did not follow him down.

Bad news, she saw a pool of blood on the ground.

Something happened but not completely. There was blood on the monster eater, and one of the three-legged monster that tried to stop Bai Tao had its leg broken.

The legs that were separated from the body were still experiencing knee jerk reflexes.

On the other side was Bai Jingjing, whose clothes were half dyed red.

Jumping down the stairs in two or three steps, he called Bai Jingjing: "Come with me to the bathroom. Xingxing, you and Zhang Yi stay and look after the seats."

Bai Jingjing looked at Bai Tao in confusion, and finally decided to follow her.

The bathroom was very close, and it was only a few steps away. After entering the bathroom, Bai Jingjing stood at a safe distance and asked, "Huajia, what's wrong?"

As soon as Bai Tao explained the rules of the trap, Bai Jingjing immediately washed her clothes.

She said, “I owe you one.”

Bai Tao also knew how she got stained with blood.
