Chapter 1 Visitors from Another World
After not sleeping well for a month, Sheng Jiu felt irritable and dazed.
After lunch, she finally felt a little sleepy, so she hurried upstairs to sleep.
As soon as I went up, I heard the iron door of the north balcony being slammed.
Sheng Jiu was not very happy and opened the door quickly: "Who is it?"
The man at the door was about two meters tall, of mixed race appearance, with three-dimensional features and deep eye sockets.
His clothes were a bit strange, with holes in some places and covered in mud, making him look quite disheveled.
As she looked at the man, he was also looking at her.
The little girl was young, with fair skin and pretty face. There was a hint of irritability in her eyes, and some dark circles under her eyes.
The owner doesn't seem to be in a very good mood?
Ares pursed his lips and asked uncertainly, "Excuse me, is there anything...to eat?"
Sheng Jiu waved his hand: "Sorry, we are closed recently."
Ares felt a little disappointed after hearing this. Just as he was about to speak, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes and fell straight forward.
Sheng Jiu:? !
Let’s talk it out nicely!
Don’t try to scam me!
Sheng Jiu subconsciously reached out to catch it, but the other person was tall and heavy, and she, a fragile college graduate, couldn't catch it at all!
Bang!
Ares fell heavily to the ground.
The little bit of sleepiness that Sheng Jiu had felt was instantly blown away by the shock.
She suddenly realized...
This is the second floor!
Could it be that this person climbed up?
【He is a visitor from another world. 】
The system that I had bound to a week ago suddenly spoke in my mind.
Sheng Jiu wanted to push the man out, but paused slightly: "Does he have money?"
【……No. 】
Sheng Jiu raised his hand and was about to throw the man out.
But there is medicine that can make you sleep without any side effects.
Sheng Jiu slowly withdrew the hand he had used to throw the person.
A week ago, Sheng Jiu linked to the food management system. The other party said that the door of the north balcony on the second floor of her restaurant is an anchor point connecting to another world, and visitors from another world will be refreshed from time to time.
In the first two days, Sheng Jiu was very excited and slept by the iron gate at night.
As a result, after not seeing a single customer for three days, Sheng Jiu put the matter behind him.
Her original plan was to sell the restaurant, but now that customers have come, the plan has to be postponed again.
He fainted from hunger.
Sheng Jiu resigned himself to his fate and grabbed the man's arm and dragged him in.
During the process, the other person's head hit the table leg, making a bang.
Even so, he didn't wake up yet and looked very hungry.
After dragging the person in and arranging them, Sheng Jiu rubbed his face and forced himself to cheer up.
People who have been hungry for a long time should not eat greasy food, as it will easily cause diarrhea.
So, Sheng Jiu prepared to cook him a bowl of egg and vegetable noodles.
She used white lard as the base, put the whole egg into the pan, and waited until the egg was fried until the edges were crispy. Then she poured a large bowl of hot water into the pan. The aroma of the egg wrapped in white mist rose up and slowly drifted to the second floor.
Ares woke up to a strong fragrance. His eyes were blurry for less than a second before he stood up quickly and looked around vigilantly.
There was no one around.
But what smells so good?
Ares couldn't sit still, so he stood up and went downstairs following the scent.
Sheng Jiu quickly cooked the noodles and was about to serve them when he saw someone coming down. He pointed to the table in front and said, "Please sit down and have a bowl of noodles first."
Ares swallowed his saliva at the aroma and obediently walked to the nearest seat and sat down.
He looked at the delicious noodles in front of him, picked up the chopsticks unskillfully, and tried to pick up the noodles. When he found that they were edible, he buried his head in the bowl.
The noodles are coated with the aroma of meat and egg, and are delicious and chewy.
fragrant!
So fragrant!
A mellow aroma that Ares had never tasted before slowly exploded in his mouth, gently soothing his empty stomach and tense nerves.
His deep eyes suddenly lit up and his eating speed increased.
It was impolite to stare at people eating, so Sheng Jiu quickly returned to the bar. Just as he took out his phone, he heard Ares's hesitant voice: "Excuse me, is there any more?"
Sheng Jiu responded subconsciously: "Also, is it not enough to eat?"
Ares nodded slightly after a moment of silence.
Sheng Jiu raised his hand to signal the other party to look at the menu hanging on the wall: "Egg and vegetable noodles, 28 yuan per portion, please pay first."
Nowadays, the ingredients in the store are a benefit for novices provided by the system, and the prices are also set by the system, which Sheng Jiu cannot change.
She had originally not planned to do it and didn't want to argue with the system, so she just casually wrote a menu and posted it there. She didn't expect it to be used.
Ares glanced at the price and then pulled a small bottle from his pocket.
[Sleep soothing agent, a specialty of the interstellar plane, can make you sleep through the night, a miracle drug with no side effects.]
Ares took out the things and asked uncertainly, "I don't have enough money on me. Is this... okay?"
Sheng Jiu was curious about the magic medicine and walked closer to take a look.
The bottle was about five or six centimeters high and as thick as two chopsticks put together, and it was filled with light green liquid.
Sheng Jiu was about to look away when he saw the bowl of noodles he had cooked earlier out of the corner of his eye, and his pupils constricted.
The bowl containing the noodles was now clean, without even a drop of soup.
His sleep-deprived brain was working very slowly, and Sheng Jiu even had some doubts.
She just... probably cooked a bowl of noodles, right?
Sheng Jiu responded in a daze, his eyes looking at the small green bottle again: "Let me see."
Sheng Jiu has no say on the price; she has to wait for the system to calculate it.
【One tube is equivalent to a bowl of noodles.】
Sheng Jiu told the truth.
When Ares heard that it was okay, he immediately took out nine more.
After the system scan confirmed that there were no problems, Sheng Jiu put the things away and said, "I'm going to cook noodles."
She moved quickly, thinking that the other party might not be able to finish the nine portions he ordered, so she walked to the kitchen door and asked loudly, "Excuse me, do you want to eat these nine portions now, or take some away?"
"I'll eat now, thank you." After answering, Ares hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and pointed to the refrigerator at the door: "Is the water in there...drinkable?"
Sheng Jiu nodded: "There's a price on it, take a look and get it yourself."
By the time the second bowl of noodles was served, there were six empty mineral water bottles and an empty bowl on Ares's table.
Sheng Jiu felt numb when he looked at the empty bottle and the clean bowl.
The case is solved, this guy is really crazy with hunger!
When the third bowl of noodles was served, there were two empty bowls and nine empty mineral water bottles on Ares's table.
Sheng Jiu:......
The fourth bowl, the fifth bowl...
When the tenth bowl of noodles came, Sheng Jiu put away the nineteen mineral water bottles and nine empty bowls with a numb look on his face.
Ares quickly finished the last mouthful of soup, then raised his hand and pointed at the menu: "Which one is convenient for takeout?"
After saying this, Ares remembered that he had no money, and a rare look of embarrassment appeared on his resolute face. After thinking about it, he took out a row of small bottles from his pocket.
This time the bottle contained a clear liquid.
[Gene nourishing fluid can alleviate the pain caused by the disease to your aunt.]
Hearing the system mention her aunt's illness, Sheng Jiu moved her fingers at her side. She asked in her head with a dry voice, "Then... can it be cured?"
