Chapter 82 Case File 2: Witch Carnival (3)
The guest was very handsome, with long, shiny silver hair, silver willow-shaped eyebrows, light blue vertical pupils, and ice-blue scales on his neck. He was exactly one of the dragons that Andre pointed out when Jiangyou was shopping just now.
"Huh? Lich?" The guest raised his beautiful eyebrows, looking surprised. "What a rare race."
He looked down at the red crayfish in the pot and said, "Hmm, a new dish. What is this?"
"Braised crayfish," Jiangyou said with a smile, "It's delicious. Would you like one? Three silver coins per pound."
"Crayfish?" The visitor also laughed. "That's really interesting. Give me three pounds."
As he spoke, he leaned forward slightly and looked at Jiang You with curiosity: "Can you speak our language?"
"Um?"
"Ah, no, wait..." The visitor seemed to realize something, "You're not speaking Dragon Language. You're simply projecting your consciousness through magical elements. Therefore, anyone who hears your 'speech' will feel like you're speaking their native language..."
He studied Jiang You carefully and suddenly laughed. "Hey! You can even change your facial expressions through your externalized magic! Amazing! Is this a lich's talent? Melando, come and see! This lich is really funny! She can even make faces with her skull!"
"All liches are like this, Leodore." A dragon with an equally handsome appearance but a tougher facial line walked over. He had short black hair, golden-red pupils, and no scales on his neck. He looked much more mature than that 'Leodore'.
Melando nodded to Jiangyou: "My friend has just left the tribe to gain experience, so he is surprised by everything he sees. Don't mind it."
"No, no," Jiangyou waved her hand. "I just became a lich recently, too, so there are a lot of things I don't understand!" She poured the fried crayfish into the preheated casserole. There was a sizzling sound, and the aroma filled the air. "Three pounds of crayfish for you two are ready!"
She took out another lobster and said, "This is your first time eating this kind of shrimp. Let me demonstrate. First, peel the shell and remove the inedible parts like the gills and legs. Then, remove the carapace along the sides of the shrimp and pinch off the tail... See! Now you can completely peel the shrimp! Both the roe and the shrimp meat are delicious and can be eaten! Dip them in the sauce on the plate for an even better taste!"
"Wow!" Leodore looked eager to try. "That's fun! I want to peel it!"
He took out nine silver coins and placed them on the counter. Jiang You then took the opportunity to promote his sauce, saying, "This sauce is made with our own homemade soy sauce. Would you like to try a bottle? It's delicious with anything and is a versatile sauce that enhances flavor. A bottle is only one silver coin!"
"Give me a bottle!" Leodore excitedly pulled out another silver coin, "You're such a fun witch!"
"Okay!" Jiang You said, handing the two a flyer. "Please find a seat. I'll bring your crayfish, soy sauce, and tableware."
Leodoro happily pulled the helpless Melando to sit in the nearest seat.
Jiangyou, not afraid of the heat, carried the casserole into a large wooden tray specially made by Beaver, put two pairs of chopsticks and a wooden bowl on it, took out a small bottle of soy sauce and a small plate from the warehouse, and then walked over with the large tray.
She placed the casserole between them, set out the dishes, and placed the soy sauce bottle and small plate next to it. "If you feel the flavor isn't enough, you can pour out a little soy sauce to dip it in. This sauce bottle can be opened and closed repeatedly, making it very convenient to carry with you when traveling! It's especially good for outdoor cooking when you don't have any sauce on hand! Whether you're frying, grilling, boiling, or deep-frying, any food will taste better with this dip!"
She winked at Leo again: "Just dip it in moderation. Too much will make it too salty~"
After serving the dishes, she didn't forget to open the photo crystal and used the [Spirit Appraisal] and [Poison Appraisal] on the crayfish casserole. "Look out, everyone! Magic won't lie. The crayfish I made are sterile and non-toxic. You can eat them safely!"
"How do you use these?" Leodo asked curiously, holding the chopsticks in each hand. "Is this how I hold them?"
"These are called chopsticks." Jiang You took out his bone chopsticks and demonstrated skillfully, "Place your fingers like this, and control them like this, and you can successfully pick up the shrimp!"
Leo immediately followed suit and clumsily picked up a shrimp. He excitedly showed it to Melando: "Look! Melando, I picked it up!"
Melando held his forehead slightly, unable to bear to look at his excited companion. He also picked up the chopsticks and quickly mastered how to use them: "I can do it too."
"Wow! You learn so fast!" Leodore said in surprise.
"Idiot, this kind of thing is not difficult for us dragons, okay!"
The two dragons started peeling shrimps while joking with each other as if they were performing a crosstalk. Seeing that they had gotten the hang of it, Jiang You went back to the counter with a smile and put ten silver coins into the cash register.
"Wow! Boss! These shrimps are delicious!" Leodore yelled again, attracting the attention of many nearby tourists. The dwarves hesitated for a second, then quickly found a table and sat down: "Boss, we want whatever they're eating!"
Lorisa had gone to sell beer to the dragons, Jericho went to take orders for the dwarves, and Jiangyou continued to light the fire and cook the next pot of lobsters.
As night fell, the bonfire not far away was finally lit. The crowd in the square was in an uproar, and exclaimed in surprise one after another. Jiang You looked up and saw the bonfire burning up into the sky. Under the control of magic, the flying flames burned into the shape of a pentagram, and then turned into the pattern of a beer cup full of foam, which looked particularly spectacular.
"Wow! The witches are really making a fuss this year!" The dwarves, who had just finished placing their orders, cheered, "Little witch, bring us some wine!"
"Alright!" Lolisa had just finished serving the two dragons some wine when she glanced up at the bonfire, tilting her head in confusion. "Was that the original plan? Never mind. As long as it looks good, that's all!"
Jiang You scratched his skull in confusion, poured the deveined crayfish into the pan, and then fried them! The dwarves ordered ten pounds of shrimp!
"I want five more pounds of shrimp here!" The dragons finished their meal quickly, but Leodo was still not satisfied and placed another order.
"Okay!" Jiangyou smiled and set up another pot.
The customers who were enjoying their food at the stalls were the best sign. As the dragons and dwarves ate and drank heartily, more customers quickly took a seat after watching for a while, and those who came later even had to queue up for a seat.
Jiangyou has a feeling that business will be booming tonight!
