Players who dislike adventure and prefer a peaceful environment will definitely find this place captivating.
Thinking of this, Qi Xu's heart skipped a beat. He didn't like adventure, preferred comfort... and also loved food and delicious food. Wasn't that just like the character from the anime "Cooking Master Boy"?
Qi Xu had a vague idea that the Master Boy might be inside the instance and hadn't left yet.
While it cannot be 100% certain, it is highly likely to be so.
"Hello, young lady, are you here to apply for a dishwasher job? Don't be shy, come in! Our staff canteen welcomes lovely newcomers like you."
A cartoon character dressed as a waiter greeted Qi Xu warmly.
Qi Xu asked in confusion, "A cute outsider?"
Actually, the word "outsider" doesn't sound very friendly, but adding the word "cute" before it makes it feel quite incongruous.
"Yes, you represent boundless beauty and hope. Every native of Hungry Town warmly welcomes your arrival!"
The waiter spoke with utmost sincerity and genuine emotion. Qi Xu couldn't detect any acting at all; it seemed like he was speaking from the bottom of his heart. But Qi Xu still felt that something was off.
"Yes, I want to find a job."
"Come on, darling, I'll take you to the store manager."
The store manager, a silver-haired elderly woman, was just as enthusiastic as the waitress. Upon hearing that Qi Xu was looking for a job, she clapped her hands and exclaimed, "You've passed the interview! Come on, let's get started! We'll settle your wages for today when you finish get off work tonight!"
Qi Xu had little room to maneuver and was taken to the kitchen.
Qi Xu had done this kind of part-time job of washing plates before, which was just a purely physical job that required him to clear his mind... but he didn't expect that the "plates" here seemed to be different.
It's very thin and shallow, and completely flat, with nothing around the edge.
The cleaning process is very simple; just put these items under the tap and rinse them one by one. There is no grease or leftover food on them.
Qi Xu instinctively repeated the tedious actions, but he didn't feel bored at all, because there were many players and NPCs in the kitchen, and everyone was singing and chatting, making it very lively.
The difference is that the players are washing dishes, while the NPCs are cooking.
Those who know the situation think it's a part-time job, but those who don't might think it's a team-building activity organized by some company.
Qi Xu had no desire to share at all. She pretended to be embarrassed and shy, and kept stammering without speaking, listening to others talk.
I did notice something odd about it.
These NPCs are exceptionally gossipy, constantly encouraging players to share their life experiences and stories from childhood to adulthood. Hearing these stories always makes players feel very satisfied and happy, and it seems to increase their work efficiency considerably.
Around noon, it was almost lunchtime, and everyone walked out in groups. Qi Xu was very puzzled, "Isn't lunch provided? Why is everyone going out to eat?"
"The staff meals are terrible, they're indescribable. There are plenty of good restaurants outside that aren't expensive, so go eat out. Are you short on cash since it's your first day? I can lend you some, just pay me back tomorrow."
Qi Xu smiled and shook her head, "Thank you, but no need. I'll try the staff meal."
