Bai Jian ate that bowl of beef noodles in the morning and felt restless the whole day.
The noodles were chewy and smooth, and were filled with the rich red oil bone soup. It was spicy and fragrant when he slurped it in his mouth. The beef was moderately fat and lean, and stewed just right. It was lean but not dry, and the tendons were fat but not greasy. It was chewy and sticky, and full of fragrance.
The snack bar had been opened at the entrance of the park for so long, but he didn't know the food there was so delicious until today.
But the feud had already been made (one-sided), and although he wanted to go to the snack bar very much, he couldn't lower himself and take the initiative to ask to go to the snack bar.
The beef noodles alone were so delicious. I heard that there were many other delicious things in the store. He often saw the three Bubble brothers and other employees in the park sneaking to the snack bar to buy things. They often came out with boxes of different sizes. He wondered how delicious those things must be.
Bai Jian's desk was filled with beef noodles made by magic, wide noodles, round noodles, big bowls, small bowls, and even dry beef noodles served on plates... The color was rich and full of details. They were all the results of his morning kneading.
Unfortunately, these noodles had no temperature and would burst when bitten. They had no fragrance or taste.
Bai Jian walked around the office with his hands behind his back. He had to find an excuse to go to the snack bar. He was going crazy.
Suddenly, several deliberately suppressed voices came from outside the door. The captain of the guards had a strong soul power, and his five senses were sharper than those of ordinary guards.
He walked over and leaned against the door, listening attentively.
"It's the night shift today. Let's go to the snack bar to queue up after work."
"The snack bar has new products, and they are desserts. I really want to eat them."
"When did it happen? What desserts?" "
Cream puffs and coffee pudding. I just saw Guard Qing secretly eating them in the office. I could smell the sweet smell at the door."
Bai Jian: "!!!"
Cream puffs and coffee pudding, the names sound delicious, and Qing actually ate them alone!
The captain of the guards could no longer bear it, turned the door handle and stuck his head out, silently watching the three people at the end of the corridor.
Bubble, Dudu and Dongdong heard the slight sound, turned around and immediately said respectfully: "Captain of the Guard."
Bai Jian walked out, relaxed his brows, and tried to appear approachable: "You are talking about snacks..."
"Sorry, sorry, Sir Captain of the Guard, we are wrong!"
"We have to be more serious on the night shift and teach those challengers a lesson!"
"Snack bars are so awful, who wants to queue up to eat there!"
Paopao and the other two bowed while moving along the wall, bypassed the captain of guards, and ran downstairs without looking back, "Oh, it's time to get ready for work, captain of guards, we're leaving first."
Bai Jian: "..."
He just wanted to join the conversation, chat about the snack bar, and then follow them...
The captain of guards ran into obstacles everywhere that day. Whenever he appeared at the door of the staff office, those employees who were discussing the snack bar enthusiastically would immediately scatter like birds and beasts, not giving him a chance to speak.
Bai Jian was very depressed. He used to be satisfied with his own majesty, but now he just felt trapped in his own web.
Is he really that scary?
Wandering around, Bai Jian walked to the door of Qing's office. The door was not closed, so he knocked on it anyway.
Qing didn't even raise his head, "Come in."
This guy is steady. Apart from his small shortcoming of being too obsessed with snack bars, he is strong and serious about his work. He is indeed a rare talent.
Bai Jian walked in, feeling a little reluctant, but thinking of the lingering taste of beef noodles, he had to speak awkwardly: "Qing, do you want to go to the snack bar after work tonight?"
The guard captain was tired and didn't want to make any more roundabouts, lest people run away, so he got straight to the point.
Qing raised his head, with surprise in his eyes, and seemed to be stunned for a moment before he came to his senses: "No."
"..." Bai Jian raised his foot and hooked a chair to sit down opposite him, "Why?"
Don't you like that store the most?
If you like it so much, wouldn't it be unreasonable not to patronize it every day?
Qing seemed a little helpless, and explained slowly: "Snack shops usually close in the afternoon and are not open at night."
Bai Jian: "..."
So what did Paopao mean by queuing up after the night shift?
There were people waiting outside the snack shop almost all day and all night, and he had always thought that the shop was open 24 hours a day.
Sure enough, once you eat there once, no one can escape the temptation of the snack shop.
Qing lowered his head to hide the corners of his curved lips, and said seriously: "The chief guard wants to go to the snack bar, and it is better to go earlier. It just so happens that Bai Ming secretly told me today that the owner is preparing new products again, and I also want to try my luck. I will call you later?"
Bai Jian was happy in his heart, with an expression on his face saying "Since you must call me, then I will give you a favor and go there." "Okay."
In the middle of the night, the door of the chief guard's office was knocked. Bai Jian sat up from the chair, "Come in."
Qing did not come in, but stood at the door and said softly: "Chief guard, it's time to go out."
Bai Jian glanced at the time. It was three o'clock in the morning. Wasn't the snack bar still closed at this time?
When they came out of the amusement park and saw the long line outside, Bai Jian seemed calm on the surface, but secretly took a breath. Are these people waiting for the snack bar to open?
This is too exaggerated. Even when the park is doing the best business, there are not so many people waiting.
Qing took the guard captain to the end of the crowd and lined up. As they were bored waiting, he began to explain the development history of Luyao Snack Shop to the guard captain.
As the first customer of the snack bar, Qing was a little proud. He said that he originally came to the park to study that day. As soon as he got off the elevator, he noticed that this snack bar was different from others.
He described to the guard captain the spicy and stimulating grilled wings and roasted pig's trotters, the sweet and sticky meatballs made with wine, and talked about leek and egg pancakes, coffee, and the noodles, cream puffs and coffee pudding he had just eaten this morning. Finally, he talked about the train conductor Gao Yang advertising for the snack bar.
Bai Jian had never heard Qing talk so much before, and he was particularly insightful when talking about food, which made him secretly swallow his saliva. Fortunately, it was dark at night and no one should notice.
In fact, except for the captain of the guards, everyone in the queue was unconsciously attracted by what Qing described and kept swallowing their saliva.
In the early morning, the NPCs working in the amusement park got off work and ran out to line up. They saw the captain of the guard in the long line from a distance and were a little frightened.
Could the captain of the guard want to smash the snack bar himself?
After all, he had this idea before.
The line lasted for several hours, and when the snack bar opened in the morning, the line slowly moved forward. By the time the captain of the guard and Qing arrived, it was almost eleven o'clock.
Xingzi saw the captain of the guard and was surprised. She paused for a moment before returning to normal.
Bai Jian looked normal and ordered three things as required, a bowl of beef noodles, a pair of spicy chicken wings, and a bowl of wine-brewed meatballs.
They were lucky. When they came in, the guests at the table by the window in the far left corner were about to leave, and Qing immediately took Bai Jian over to sit down.
Bai Jian noticed the succulent potted plant on the windowsill, his pupils trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but stretch out his fingers to touch it carefully.
The plump, round and green succulent plant withered and turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into ash and falling into the small flowerpot.
The guest at the next table was sharp-eyed and immediately raised his hand and said, "Wow, that person touched the succulent plant to death."
The guests dining in the store all looked over, and the clerk downstairs also watched silently. The thin layer of ash on the window sill could not deceive anyone.
Bai Jian: "..."
He had no ill intentions, but was just curious and couldn't help it. He didn't expect this little thing to be so fragile.
Xingzi had never encountered such a situation before. If it was an ordinary guest, it would be easy to solve, but the captain of guards was a little special.
The succulent plant died because the captain of guards' soul power was too strong, which overwhelmed the vitality of the small potted plant and directly robbed it of its vitality.
The store was eerily quiet. Many customers hurriedly ate and left. Some even didn't have time to eat. They took their own boxes and ran away.
That man was too scary.
Xingzi hurried to find Lu Yao and explained the situation.
Lu Yao came out with noodles and spicy chicken wings. Seeing the empty potted plant on the window sill, he put down his plate, picked up a round succulent plant and put it into the empty potted plant. He also compacted the soil a little, and smiled at Bai Jian who was a little stunned, saying: "I'm sorry, this succulent plant was not pinched well, and it surprised you."
After hearing Lu Yao's explanation, the customer who just came in withdrew his inquiring eyes, ordered the food and waited.
Bai Jian watched Lu Yao return to the kitchen before retracting his eyes, looking down at the beef noodles and spicy grilled wings on the table in front of him.
Qing said, "You are so lucky. This bowl of noodles was cooked by the store manager."
Bai Jian came back to his senses, "What is the difference between her cooking and that of others?"
Qing did not explain it clearly, but only said, "You will understand when you have the opportunity to taste the cooking of other employees in the future."
After a few more times, you can taste the obvious difference between Lu Yao's cooking and that of others, but the store owner is too busy to ask her to do everything herself.
For most people, the most important thing is that this small shop can continue to exist.
They all chose to ignore this minor shortcoming.
Before eating, Bai Jian looked down at the freshly pinched succulent on the window sill again, his eyes flickered slightly, and his voice was very low: "Why did she say that?"
Before yesterday, he always disliked snack bars, and naturally disliked the owner of the snack bar, Lu Yao.
He had planned to destroy her shop many times, and although she didn't know his thoughts, her actions still shocked him.
In comparison, the fact that she could perform illusions didn't seem to surprise him that much.
Qing shook her head: "I don't know either. If the captain of the guard is curious, why not ask her in person?"
Bai Jian: "..."
He suspected that Qing was deliberately mocking him.
The captain of the guard was silent for a long time, until Qing reminded him that the noodles would become unpalatable, then he came to his senses and picked up the chopsticks.
After taking the first bite of noodles, he understood what Qing had just said.
The bowl of noodles in the morning should not have been cooked by Lu Yao. This bowl and that bowl seem to be no different. The bowl cooked by Lu Yao tastes more fragrant and warm, and is more soothing.
"It would be great if Bai Jue could also have this bowl of noodles." Bai Jian finished his meal in unusual silence, and finally said this while looking out the window.
Qingzhi paused slightly, then continued to eat noodles with his head down.
Bai Jue, the previous guard of the 99th Floor Paradise.
In the late stage of amnesia, he entered the highest level game, chose to surrender in the game, was chopped into pieces by the challenger, and never came out again.
The space of the paradise is very special to them. They will transform into entities in the paradise, grow hearts, and have weaknesses, so that they can experience the sense of reality.
Generally speaking, those challengers cannot touch their weaknesses unless they voluntarily expose them.
Bai Jue was like that at the time, and chose the most tragic way to end everything.
After Bai Jue's death, the captain of the guard was depressed for a long time, and rarely left the paradise afterwards.
The last time he went out was probably to look for a new guard.
The young guard he found is now working as a clerk in a snack bar.
Bai Ming brought a white porcelain plate and pushed it in front of Bai Jian, "The owner's new snacks, please try them." He
was very determined to resign at the beginning, but he still respected the captain of the guard in his heart. The captain of the guard was stronger than all of them.
In the white porcelain plate lay four small jellies skewered with bamboo sticks. Their round appearance was very similar to the succulent potted plants that he had just touched to death.
Qingxian reached out and took one, bit off half of it in one bite, his eyes shining: "Delicious! What is this called?"
Bai Ming: "The owner said it's called Bo Zai Gao."
Bai Jian picked up a red bean flavored one and took a bite. It looked soft, but it tasted sticky and chewy, slightly sweet and not greasy. It was indeed delicious.
At this time, Gao Yang came down from the second floor and found Lu Yao: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
His exclusive table is on the second floor, and Lu Yao even hung a sign on it, which is very impressive .
These days, Gao Yang will take some time to come and sit.
Originally, none of the colleagues in the office wanted to participate in this snack bar project, but now they are all vying to get a taste of Gao Yang's exclusive treatment, but he doesn't take anyone with him, not even Xiao Qi and Ren Min.
Lu Yao also brought him a plate of rice cakes and pulled him to sit down: "The train conductor is knowledgeable, I want to ask if you know where the Demon God is?"
"You want to see the Demon God?" Gao Yang thought it was strange, she was really brave.
Lu Yao nodded: "Yeah."
Bai Jian's five senses are sharper than those of ordinary people, and Lu Yao is facing his direction. He can read lips. Is she asking about the Lord Demon?
Gao Yang did not comment and asked: "Why?" Lu
Yao could not say that it was to complete the task. Thinking of the invitation, an idea came to her, "I want to invite Lord Demon to have a meal in the store."
"Dinner?" Gao Yang could not imagine that she would have such an idea, and could not help laughing, "Sorry, I don't know where Lord Demon is. As far as I know, He should not be here."
He has been to all places in the Dream Land, and there is no place where he can sense the existence of the Demon.
Lu Yao was surprised: "Not here? How could it be? Isn't the Demon God the origin of the existence of this world?"
Gao Yang said: "That's true, but He is not here. If anyone knows where the Demon God is, it's probably only the guards of the amusement park."
The guards of the amusement park were actually the guards of the Demon God at first.
Later, the Demon God disappeared and left the amusement park. The guards were scattered in various areas and became ordinary amusement park guards.
Bai Ming has helped to ask, at least Qing doesn't know.
When I met Du Chen this morning, he also said that he didn't know the whereabouts of the Demon God.
Lu Yao felt that this mission was a bit tricky. If he couldn't find the Demon God, he couldn't deliver the invitation. He didn't know what the subsequent mission would be, and there was a time limit.
Without getting any useful information from Gao Yang, Lu Yao chatted with him for a few words and then left.
Qi Chen came downstairs and found Lu Yao who was thinking hard in the kitchen. He said nervously: "Owner, I want to trouble you with something."
"What is it?"
"The ratio of the matcha mille-feuille I tried these days is still not right. I would like to ask you to buy me a sample. I want to taste it again."
Lu Yao felt that her thoughts were interrupted. She couldn't think of a way to find the demon god in a short time. It would be better to go out for a walk and change her mood.
She stood up, touched her mobile phone and was about to go out: "Okay, I'll buy it." Lu Yao
walked to the door, Bai Ming stopped her and handed her something.
"Where did this thing come from?" Lu Yao looked at the pitch-black ring in his hand and was a little surprised.
Zhao Yuqing said that only dying people would see this thing, so why did Bai Ming give it to her? Was it a hint that she was about to die?
But she had just had her life extended by two thousand years, so she couldn't be so unreliable, right?
Bai Ming also frowned: "The captain of the guards asked me to give it to you."
Captain of the guards?
Lu Yao felt that things were even stranger. She was not familiar with the captain of the guards, so why did he give it to her?
She had already learned about the illusion ring from Qi Chen.
The black one was the most terrifying ring. Not only would it take the owner into the highest level of the game, it also implied that if the game failed, the owner would die miserably.
Qi Chen said his ring was also black. Lu Yao thought of Qi Chen's final ending in the news, and his hands and feet became cold.
She wasn't really going to die, was she?
Bai Ming seemed to see her worry and comforted her, "Don't worry, you'll be fine. If it was your ring, we wouldn't have given it to you. It would appear where you can see it."
This was equivalent to making it clear that they knew everything, but they just didn't expose it.
Lu Yao: "..."
