Liao Yuewei originally planned to secretly replace all the food with the food that came with her space, but her uneasy emotions kept raging. Especially after seeing the little girl who clearly agreed that she would take care of it, but still forced a mouthful of rice down her throat with a bitter face, she chose to quietly finish the food on her plate.
Liao Yuewei's decision was clearly correct.
A commotion erupted at the entrance, where two female students who had just left the dining area were surrounded by four young women in nuns' habit.
The nuns were expressionless, their robes wrapped with blue ribbons bearing the words "Supervisory Committee," as if they had been waiting there all along, quietly checking on each student's meal process.
But if they hadn't shown themselves at this moment, probably no one would have noticed that there were still guards standing at the door.
Cheng Shuang straightened her chest and looked into the distance.
If the maintainers were all forced to participate in the plot-driven killing of the 'female student,' it's now impossible to determine each other's identities from their appearances. However, it's obvious that the two students at the door who look nervous are unlikely to be local ghosts; they are most likely maintainers.
The restaurant, where people were constantly coming and going, suddenly fell silent. All heads turned towards the entrance, staring intently at the two unfortunate souls who had been targeted by the regulatory committee.
Cheng Shuang kicked Liao Yuewei, pulled out a bottle of water and forced it down her throat to suppress her nausea. She then pretended to copy the female students' actions, coldly and intently staring at the door.
The two girls, holding hands intimately, took a half-step back, staring warily at the four nuns like cats with their fur standing on end. One of them spoke up in a low voice, trying to deny it, "We ate it, we really ate it!"
"Look, the plate is empty!"
The nuns remained unmoved. With a swift movement, they ran their hands across the stomachs of both girls. Perhaps the hands were too cold, for the long-haired girl screamed in fright and hid behind the short-haired girl. The short-haired girl immediately shielded her in a protective stance, holding two plates in a defensive posture, and glared at the nuns.
Despite the hostile stares from the two women, the nuns pretended not to notice and pulled out a thick notebook. The four of them moved in unison, quickly flipping through the notebook to examine it.
Upon seeing this, the short-haired girl immediately gave the long-haired girl a wink.
The long-haired woman hesitated for a moment. When the nuns' gazes were fixed on a certain page of the notebook, she glanced at it unintentionally, and her face suddenly turned pale. Finally, she made up her mind, took out a card, and disappeared into thin air.
"What did you write in that little notebook?" Cheng Shuang muttered to herself.
Liao Yuewei frowned. "I'm more curious about who these two are?" They have so many cards that they can waste them like this. I'm so envious! If she had a card that allows instant escape, she would definitely save it for the most urgent moment.
The disappearance of the long-haired woman went unnoticed by any of the nuns; they seemed completely captivated by the arrogant short-haired woman and had utterly forgotten about the long-haired woman.
The short-haired woman breathed a sigh of relief without making it obvious, and immediately sneered, "Anyway, I've finished eating!" She spread out her plate to show everyone, and the plate was indeed clean, without a trace of oil or residue.
"It looks like it's been licked by a dog," Liao Yuewei muttered.
"There's no place to wash your dishes in the dining area." Cheng Shuang pouted. She was still wearing the monster cloak, and the monster was tantrums on her head, refusing to come out.
The presence of so many filthy souls inevitably affected the gloomy creature's mood. The little girl patiently comforted it for a few moments, then patted her own head and handed it the pink dumpling.
The cute pink Maruko-chan was created by Cheng Shuang using her basic repairman skill. This skill is limited to one repair per day, with a 24-hour cooldown. Overuse of this ability will also have negative effects in the next cycle of reincarnation.
In order to master her second skill more quickly and effectively, the little girl learned to condense intangible power into tangible objects during the last two days at the rest stop.
After all, there was a little hint: the number of uses could be accumulated, given away, but not taken away. This immediately made Cheng Shuang think of portable pills, and her mind went blank, which led to the creation of the pink pills.
The gloomy monster, who was holding the pink dumpling with great affection, suddenly felt better and gave a feedback on the scene he had seen while exploring.
"There are water taps and tableware storage racks at the back of the restaurant."
Cheng Shuang said.
"So they definitely didn't eat a single bite and carried everything back neatly to their spatial storage." Liao Yuewei pouted, her eyes widening as she glanced at the nun.
Suddenly, a single table and chair appeared by the door. The short-haired girl was forcibly pressed into the seat. Faced with a mountain of fried rice, two bowls of tomato and beef brisket, and two bowls of cold dishes, her face turned pale, but she was unable to break free and stand up.
The nuns unfolded their notebooks and checked the dishes one by one. After the two bowls of hot soup were brought out and arranged by the aunt, the nuns closed their notebooks with satisfaction.
One of them handed a soup spoon to the short-haired girl, silently signaling her to start eating.
"The punishment will be multiplied several times?" the little girl asked in surprise. This amount of food was definitely not a normal amount for two people. Moreover, knowing that food should not be eaten in excess, no protector would be foolish enough to fill their plate with food and disgust themselves.
"Tsk!" Liao Yuewei made a face of toothache and said regretfully, "If her companion hadn't left first, it would have been better if the two of them had split the cost."
Cheng Shuang didn't speak, her eyes wide with shock as she stared at the girl eating and drinking soup with gusto.
The short-haired girl kept shoveling spoonful after spoonful into her mouth, regardless of whether it was food or eyeballs. Her cooperative attitude was completely different from her previous arrogant and wary demeanor.
Suddenly, the short-haired girl stopped what she was doing, gagged a few times, opened her mouth wide in pain, and slowly pulled a bunch of long, dark hair out of her throat. The hair grew longer and longer as she pulled, and everything she had swallowed was pulled out with it.
Suddenly, several vomiting sounds came from a corner of the restaurant.
Cheng Shuang covered her mouth and stuffed a piece of extremely sour Xiuxiu candy into her mouth to suppress her nausea.
Liao Yuewei, being a seasoned veteran, remained calm and composed until the nun held up a sign that clearly read: "No Waste," in four bright red characters.
The short-haired girl's pupils dilated, but her body nimbly dropped to the ground. Without hesitation, she picked up the food she had vomited and began to put it into her mouth, including the sticky strand of long hair.
In the corner, someone hissed, "Don't spit it out. Do you want to eat it all back?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shuang felt even more nauseous. She quickly stuffed another piece of candy into her mouth and handed one to Liao Yuewei.
Liao Yuewei swallowed, but didn't refuse. She peeled off the candy wrapper and ate it. The extremely sour taste finally made her stomach feel a little better.
"Not much left, I don't have much candy left."
She had originally intended to ask Cheng Shuang for a few more pieces, but upon hearing the girl's words, she felt embarrassed. Just as she was about to prepare a return gift, her hand was grabbed and a few pieces of candy were slipped into her hand.
She looked up and realized that the little girl was talking to the student at the next table.
Cheng Shuang reluctantly took two candies out of her pocket, held them in her palm, and handed them over, saying, "Miss Qianyu, I only have two left, you can have them both!"
