Mu Chen is no longer satisfied with just buying lunch boxes; he now insists that a good person must eat all the lunch boxes.
Because Mu Chen's gaze fell on a sealed artifact on the corner table. From the outside, the broken seal looked the same as it did at noon, but in the player's eyes, a note appeared on it now—Patch x4.
The patch here likely refers to the effect of the boxed meals they ate.
However, it's quite interesting that six people bought boxed lunches but only received four "patches".
"Does this mean that two people bought food but didn't eat it? Does that mean the two people who didn't eat it are the murderers?!"
Lu Xiaoyao's eyes lit up, and she stared at Mu Chen excitedly as if she had discovered something: "Boss, you are so amazing!"
Mu Chen simply smiled at Lu Xiaoyao's praise, but showed no intention of saying anything more.
Mu Chen was also very surprised. From the perspective of whether or not the meal was eaten, there was actually a troublemaker involved.
"Let me clarify first, Aiqisi, who was eliminated, also finished both of her boxed lunches."
Mu Chen's words caused a moment of silence, and the live chat exploded with comments!
[Holy crap, what does this mean, bro?]
[Actually, I can understand. The person who was eliminated wasn't the culprit, so they must have finished their lunchbox, right? So, who else here has eaten their lunchbox?]
[Besides the big shot, there were two other guys, as well as Lu Xiaoyao and the girl opposite them!]
Isn't it obvious? That girl is definitely one of the two people who won't eat the sealed lunchboxes!
There's another one...
...
Mingmei, who automatically categorized Mu Ning as someone who hadn't eaten the boxed lunch, couldn't help but feel a little wronged for Mu Ning. However, when Mingmei saw a hint of guilt flash across Mu Ning's face, she realized...
Bright and beautiful: ? ? ?
"I..." Mu Ning hesitated, then suddenly said to the probing gazes of the crowd, "I did buy a boxed lunch of duck blood and tofu, but I ran into Ba She on the way, and he curiously took one of my portions."
"No way, you can blame Bashe for this? Is Bashe some kind of scapegoat? You were slacking off with Bashe, and even if you didn't eat your lunch, Bashe would still take it. Why don't you just say that Bashe is actually a bully?"
"Achoo!"
Bashe, who was being called a bully by Lu Xiaoyao behind her back, was now lying in front of Mingmei's bar, staring intently at her, asking her to make him hawthorn digestive water.
"We all act according to those mysterious laws of heaven and earth. I didn't mind you selling this boxed lunch to me, so what's wrong with me asking you for a glass of water?"
Looking at the face that looked exactly like Yan Hui's, and hearing the tone that came out of his mouth, Mingmei didn't know how to face him for a moment. After chuckling a few times, she stopped talking, turned around and poured a glass of water, saying only, "No, this is all we have. Take it or leave it."
"You seem cold and aloof, and your actions have a volatile edge... Tsk, not good, not good."
Bashe shook his head in disgust, but honestly took a sip of water and said with a sigh, "Just from the water, I know that the lunchbox wasn't made by you. You're obviously not the kind of person who can make such delicious lunchboxes."
Mingmei: "...?"
What was it when she looked at it?
However, she remembered that in the last game, she had made lunchboxes for a year.
There has been absolutely no progress; all the boxed meals have done is make them edible.
It couldn't be more praiseworthy than this. Aside from Mu Chen, everyone else's thought process while eating their boxed lunches was probably something like this—
#Wow! This boxed lunch is awful! #→#These days, who cares about anything else? As long as it's edible, that's fine. #→#Hmm...at least it's filling, so this boxed lunch isn't entirely without its merits. #
Listening to Bashe's complaints, Mingmei was annoyed but didn't say anything, indirectly admitting that she didn't make the lunchboxes herself.
Upon seeing this, the Bashe (a mythical snake) was delighted.
"Seriously? You're not even going to put up a fight? You're just going to admit this is the lunchbox you made? At least make it look presentable, right? I'm not going to pester you to make it for me to see~"
Though her words were so eloquent, Mingmei didn't believe them. With a cold glance, she simply asked, "What exactly are you doing here?"
"Gotta digest, there are plenty of people waiting outside for me to eat~"
With his hands braced against the bar, Bashe simply sat down on the counter, crossed his legs, and when he laughed, the moment his snake-like tongue stuck out made Mingmei involuntarily take a step back.
"Huh? You're afraid of me?"
Bashe found it quite strange to see Mingmei react like that.
"You eat people, of course I'm afraid."
Mingmei's words were completely different from what she showed on her face. Bashe laughed and patted her shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, I won't eat you."
After saying that, it glanced at the lunchbox behind Mingmei. Mingmei naturally saw its gaze and remembered what Mu Ning had said in the live broadcast room about her lunchbox being stolen by Bashe. So she asked, "Why did you take that young girl's lunchbox?"
"Eat."
Mingmei: "..."
She had forgotten that the other person had just praised the boxed lunches she sold.
"This was bought with someone's money, what kind of nonsense is this, stealing it?"
"Because I don't have any money," he replied to Mingmei matter-of-factly. "If I don't have any money, would you sell me a boxed lunch?"
?
"How will you buy a boxed lunch if you don't have money?"
"Yeah, so I grabbed one portion, enough to keep the other person from starving, and I even saved one for myself!"
Mingmei: "..."
"I told you, didn't I? He's the one who stole it!"
A group of people had been arguing since they arrived. Mu Ning said that if they didn't believe her, she could help find Ba She. However, no one paid any attention when she called Ba She. When they heard someone talking over here, they heard Ba She talking about not having money to buy lunch boxes. Immediately, they started shouting.
"What's wrong? You're causing trouble just because you only gave me one of your boxed lunches?"
Bashe, sitting on the bar, turned around and saw that all around him were players. He wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he was arrogant and domineering, acting like a little tyrant who thought, "I have connections" and "I'm an important NPC." Mingmei secretly sneered at him.
Regardless of his identity, this guy would get beaten up as soon as he stepped outside.
Was her uncle like this when he was young?
No way?
"No, I wasn't trying to cause you any trouble, I was just asking."
The players all shook their heads in denial, but then Mu Chen leaned back a little to take the opportunity to see how Mingmei, who was completely blocked by the Bashe, was doing.
Who knew that Bashe would say a few words as soon as he arrived?
But what he encountered was the snake's small head suddenly tilting to the side.
What are you looking at?
Bashe looked at Mu Chen's strange posture and asked a question. His loud voice instantly drew everyone's attention to him.
As a result, everyone saw Mu Chen looking at the bar in such a strange posture.
Mu Chen: "...Would anyone believe me if I said I twisted my back?"
Everyone: "..."
