"No?" Qin Nuo asked, noticing the proprietress's expression.
"As a human being, what do you want this thing for?" The proprietress handed the note back and asked.
"Actually, I'm an employee of Yinquan Restaurant. They asked me to buy these ingredients." Qin Nuo said.
The proprietress laughed and said, "This is no different from sentencing you to death."
"What's the meaning?"
"Even if I gave you ingredient No. 8, you, a human being, couldn't take it back and you would lose your life." The proprietress sat down and poured a glass of water.
"This kind of food is extremely dangerous. It's difficult for humans to control it, and we might even be controlled by it."
Qin Nuo was shocked.
Depend on!
Is this a food ingredient or a monster? This is too scary!
"Besides, I won't buy it for you."
"Why?"
"It's so precious. Those guys at Yinquan Restaurant almost always send an employee over to buy ingredients numbered 1 to 8 every once in a while."
"This thing cannot be bought with ghost coins." The proprietress said lightly.
"If you just want to buy something like this, you can go back."
Qin Nuo looked troubled: "I will die if I go back."
"Besides ghost coins, can I buy it with something else?"
The proprietress glanced at Qin Nuo's body and said with a smile: "Although you have a nice figure, I am not interested in that aspect."
"Besides, human flesh is not valuable here."
Qin Nuo was silent.
He suddenly understood.
The most difficult part of this mission is not arriving at the Monster Supermarket alive, but the fact that people there simply refuse to buy ingredient number 8!
Maybe Pinocchio didn't expect Qin Nuo to be brought back.
Bang! Bang!!
Suddenly, there was a huge noise in the supermarket.
Qin Nuo saw from a distance that a large amount of goods were flying around and the cargo racks were collapsing. In an instant, the area was in ruins.
Bang!
The darkroom door was thrown open, and the wounded boss rushed out. He roared fiercely at a bone-stomping knife, "It's that damn thief again! I'm going to chop him into pieces!"
After saying that, he rushed into the shelf area with a bone-chopping knife.
Not long after, he came back covered in dust and dirt.
Holding the knife, he gritted his teeth in anger.
"Idiot, stop making the store more messy!"
"If you were so capable, you would have caught that thing long ago. Why are you making such a fuss here now?" The proprietress grabbed her husband's ear and cursed.
The boss slashed the boss lady's arm with his backhand and said, "You're just talking about me, why don't you go and catch her?"
The boss lady didn't argue with him. She went to the shelf and soon heard an angry scream: "It stole 8 more items, which must have cost 500 ghost coins in total!"
When Qin Nuo heard this, he roughly understood what had happened.
How could a thief sneak into a supermarket like this?
And from what he said, he stole more than once and is a habitual offender.
"Can you tell me about it? Maybe I can help." Qin Nuo asked tentatively.
"You? Get out of the way and don't bother me!" The boss was very disdainful of Qin Nuo, or to be more precise, he was very disdainful of human beings.
The proprietress came over, pushed the boss aside, stared at Qin Nuo, and suddenly smiled meaningfully: "Well, if you can help us catch the thief, I will sell ingredient number 8 to you!"
"Deal!" Qin Nuo didn't hesitate at all.
What other choice is there besides agreeing?
"Haha." The boss sneered twice and said nothing.
"Boss, give me two portions of human donkey skins." A passing customer stopped and shouted.
"Can't he get it himself? Does he have no hands or feet?" The boss turned around and cursed.
"Fuck, you are so arrogant in doing business, you can open a crappy shop!" The ghost cursed and left.
The lady boss stabbed the boss in the back again, her eyes fierce and ready to burst: "Do you still want to keep this store open?"
Qin Nuo ignored the loving couple who were always stabbing each other and walked towards the shelves.
This supermarket is actually very big.
There were no less than a hundred items displayed on the shelves alone. Qin Nuo walked inside and found that the goods were either covered in dust or scattered on the ground. In short, they were very messy and seemed to have never been sorted.
Suddenly, Qin Nuo heard some noise.
He quickly grasped the location of the sound, took out his bone-breaking hammer, turned around and was about to swing it.
"Brother, calm down!"
The figure spoke hurriedly.
"Human?" Qin Nuo was stunned and smelled a human scent from the other person.
"Yes, it's a human. I'm a player here, a tally clerk. My name is Chen Yuan. Just like you, I was sent here to participate in the horror game." The man said with a smile.
"Tally clerk..."
Qin Nuo stared at the messy shelves and the mess everywhere: "Is this the goods you sorted?"
Given the boss's violent temper, who always picked up a knife, Chen Yuan should have been chopped into pieces after seeing such a scene.
How did Chen Yuan survive to this day with such a work attitude?
"Hey, isn't there a national protection mechanism?"
"The boss and the boss's wife only come to check once a week. I've been lazy for five days, so two days is enough to clean up." Chen Yuan scratched his head and laughed.
Qin Nuo was shocked.
It turns out this is a protection mechanism forcibly added by state intervention!
Isn't this supervision too lax?
No wonder the angry couple came in and ignored the mess on the ground, only being angry at the thief for messing up the goods!
Thinking about my work in Yinquan Restaurant these days, I was bullied by the chef, molested by a ghost while I was sleeping, and targeted by a perverted customer. If it weren't for my clever mind and luck, I would have lost my life long ago!
