“Waiter, I’d like to order a dish of living human brains.”
In a dark corner, a ghostly creature with only half of its head remaining spoke in a hoarse voice. Its brain stem had been hollowed out, and its two blood-soaked eyeballs, with the optic nerves fully exposed, hung below the eye sockets.
It seems this ghost wished to replenish its form with a similar form.
“I’m sorry, dear guest, we don’t have that dish,” Qing Li said with a smile.
“I order this dish every day, how can it not be available?” the ghost, with its blood-red eyes, stared fixedly at Qing Li.
That look in its eyes was as if it already considered Qing Li as its next meal.
Qing Li blinked and said honestly, “Because I said we don’t have it, we don’t have it.”
“You’re asking for trouble.”
The ghost, angered, tore its mouth open in an exaggerated arc and suddenly attacked Qing Li.
“Crack—”
Qing Li raised the large cleaver in her hand and brought it down swiftly.
The ghost, already missing half of its head, had the other half and one of its arms chopped off as well.
Qing Li caught the flying half-head deftly and then presented it to the ghost.
“We don’t have human brains, but ghost brains should suffice. For our headless guest who likes to eat brains, I suggest you become self-sufficient.”
The ghost was stunned by Qing Li’s action. Taking his own quarter-head, he actually felt for a moment that she made sense.
But then…
“Why did you chop off my arm?”
“Oh, that’s my tip,” Qing Li said with a smile.
The ghost: “…”
An arm as a tip, more expensive than the restaurant’s meal!
“Any other guests wishing to order? If not, I’ll ask again later,” Qing Li spoke loudly.
The previously noisy second-floor hall fell into a deathly silence.
This human, something seems off about her.
They are the ghosts, but why does she seem more terrifying than a ghost!
“Waiter, I’d like to order a dish of whole roasted human, live-roasted, aged 12-18. Too old and the meat is too tough, which I don’t like. Remember to add plenty of spice and no cumin,” said a charred ghost, licking his charred lips with a blood-red tongue, greedily eyeing Qing Li.
“I’m sorry, we don’t have that dish either,” Qing Li replied.
“Damn, you have neither this nor that. I think I’ll use you as my ingredient,” the charred ghost extended his tongue and licked his burnt lips, staring greedily at Qing Li.
“Dear guest, I think you’re a bit hot-tempered. I suggest you cool down before continuing to order.”
Qing Li, holding a fire extinguisher that appeared out of nowhere, suddenly smashed it against the charred ghost’s head.
“Bang——”
The burnt ghost’s head was smashed, and its brain splattered.
On the other side, another ghost that was holding its own head to eat smelled the aroma of the barbecued brain and immediately threw away its own half head, greedily slurping from the burnt ghost’s head.
Wow, delicious.
This scene made the second-floor restaurant even quieter.
Despite being starving and having a buffet right in front of them.
But…
No one dared to order anymore.
[Let the village girl be a waitress, sympathize with the restaurant owner for a second.]
[The psychological shadows of these ghosts need a lifetime to heal.]
[They just wanted to have a meal, but what they ate was all —— beheaded meal.]
[Daily routine question: who is more terrifying, the village girl or the ghosts? Please vote.]
The data was quickly tallied—
Village girl: 888,997 votes.
Ghosts: 383 votes.
“Hey, waiter, I want to order.”
Finally, another ghost bravely raised its hand.
The other ghosts looked at it with admiration; oh brave one, the important task of reviving the ghostly spirit depends on you!
Go for it, you got this!
“What would you like to order, sir?” Qing Li approached with a smile.
The male ghost who was ordering trembled as Qing Li approached and said, “I would like a garlic stir-fried broccoli, I’m a vegetarian ghost.”
Qing Li smiled and said, “Okay, customer, please wait a moment.”
The ghosts on the second floor sighed in relief, finally… a ghost successfully placed an order!
“Waiter, I’ll have a cold enoki mushroom salad, I prefer to be self-sufficient, eating and… at the same time.”
“…”
“Didn’t today’s customers on the second-floor order?”
The handsome man with red lines on his face, noticing that there wasn’t a single menu on the second floor, frowned.
“No, not a single one, I find it strange too.” The cashier scratched his head, poking his fingers into his scalp without realizing.
At this moment, Qing Li slowly walked down from the second floor.
Seeing that she was still alive, a flash of surprise crossed the man’s face.
“Why haven’t the customers on the second floor ordered yet?” The man concealed the surprise in his eyes and looked towards Qing Li.
Qing Li shook the menu in her hand and happily said, “The customers have already ordered, I need to go to the kitchen to hurry the chef to serve the dishes.”
“Give me the menu,” the man commanded.
Qing Li raised an eyebrow and handed him the menu.
Seeing the menu’s crooked handwriting and the dishes full of typos, the man’s mouth twitched.
Garlic fried broccoli, cold enoki mushroom salad, hot oil poured over wheat, green fried green beans…
What is all this messy stuff!
“These dishes are not available in our restaurant,” the man said coldly.
“What?”
Qing Li’s voice rose upon hearing this.
“These dishes were personally ordered by the customers, and you say they’re not available?”
“The customers are eagerly waiting for the dishes now, can you take responsibility if they are left hungry?”
“What kind of restaurant lets its customers go hungry? I think it’s better to settle my salary and close down!”
The man’s temples bulged with veins, wanting to tear apart the mouth of the woman in front of him…
And you’ve only been working for an hour, what salary!
“Take the menu down and arrange for the chef to find a way to make it.”
Finally, the man handed the menu to the cashier to pass the message down.
Seeing this, Qing Li was satisfied and said, “The customers on the second floor are still waiting for my enthusiastic service, I’ll continue to serve the customers.”
She hurried upstairs.
The man’s eyes followed Qing Li’s disappearing figure…
On the second floor, seeing Qing Li return so quickly, the relieved ghosts suddenly became anxious again.
“Dear guests, your ordered menu has been sent to the kitchen, please wait patiently,” Qing Li said with a caring smile.
The ghosts: “….”
They didn’t want to eat, they just wanted to go home quickly.
Suddenly, the ghosts became restless, looking nervous and uneasy, looking behind Qing Li.
Qing Li sensed something, quickly turned around, and saw a familiar face. She smiled and said, “Dr. Chu, welcome to the Starving Ghost Restaurant, I am Qing Li, the second-floor waitress, I’m glad to serve you.”
Dr. Chu, in a black suit, had a handsome and flawless face, his pale complexion covered with a thin layer of frost, exuding a cold aura that seemed unapproachable.
But upon meeting Qing Li, the coldness around him receded, and Chu spoke lightly with a smile, “Hello, please order for me.”
Dr. Chu casually found a seat, his elegant and dignified demeanor out of place among the ghosts.
“Dr. Chu, let me tell you secretly, this restaurant is not clean at all, I advise you not to eat here,” Qing Li whispered in a low voice.
“That’s a pity, I heard this restaurant was good, so I came here specially to try the taste,” Chu said with some regret.
Qing Li raises her eyebrows and suddenly remembers something, then smiles and says, “Dr. Chu, how about we make a deal? You answer one of my questions, and I’ll treat you to a dish.”
“Of course,” Dr. Chu responds, not refusing and even looking forward to what Qing Li might ask.
“How old are you, Dr. Chu?”
Dr. Chu replies, “If we count from the time I was created, I should be 537 years old.”
Unexpectedly, Dr. Chu’s age turns out to be even older than the founding ancestor of their Taoist temple.
Qing Li keeps her word and buys a steak from the system, serving it to Dr. Chu.
“Dr. Chu, are you single?”
“Single.”
“How many times have you been in love, Dr. Chu?”
“Zero times.”
“Do you prefer humans, ghosts, or something in between?”
This question makes Dr. Chu pause for a moment before answering, “I suppose I like humans who are even more fierce than ghosts.”
Hearing this, Qing Li appears somewhat disappointed.
It seems she doesn’t meet Dr. Chu’s standards for a partner.
After all, she is so gentle, cute, and kind…!
By now, Dr. Chu’s dining table is piled high with dishes.
The other hungry ghosts, smelling the delicious food, are all crazily swallowing their saliva.
“Why does he get so much good food and drink, and we get nothing?” some discontented ghosts complain.
Qing Li’s smile fades as she coldly replies, “He’s handsome, so he gets special treatment. Look at yourselves, each of you looking like a ghost, what use do you have for a bicycle?”
The ghosts are left speechless.
Damn, it seems like they’ve just been insulted for their ghostly appearances!
