I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 317: Gorilla·Zongzi·Liu San, the Wind Rises in Dahai City

"Brother Yuan, you left all your work to Manager He and came to our table to eat for free. Is this appropriate?"

At the big round table, Cao Yang, Li Jun, Wei Jing, Zhang Lei and Ah Hong were sitting together, and Xiao An and Xiao Xi were serving the dishes.

However, there was one more person sitting at the table, and that was Lin Yuan.

Hearing Cao Yang say this, Li Jun wanted to rush over and cover his mouth. The others had the same expression.

the reason is simple:
Ever since the situation of the Peace Hotel and the "store manager" became roughly clear, especially after it became apparent that the "store manager" could not be detained at the moment, the attitude towards the "store manager" was to build a relationship with him, or even to use him for one's own purposes.

Unfortunately, although the "store manager" is friendly to everyone and seems very approachable, he has a sense of distance that is difficult to ignore, making it impossible to truly get close to him.

it's good now.

It's a rare opportunity for the "store manager" to sit down at a table to eat. But you, Cao Yang, are most concerned about whether the "store manager" coming here to eat for free will waste their funds?

You know, if you can get closer to the "store manager" in this way and improve his favorability, Cao Yanhua will probably be willing to send all the evil spirits from the headquarters over!
They both have the surname Cao, so why is there such a big difference between them?

Fortunately, Lin Yuan was not angry. On the contrary, he liked the way he got along with Cao Yang. It felt like he was facing a bad friend in college.

Not like others.

Although the attitude was polite and even respectful, it felt so fake.

If it weren't for opening a store, he wouldn't bother dealing with them.

Hey!
After all, I ended up living the life I hate!
Lin Yuan was so moved that he felt more relaxed and happy with Cao Yang. "You talk as if I am precious. Xiao An... Xiao Tong, add another dish, a pork elbow... Well, let's order a small stir-fried meat, so that Lao Cao won't say that I am a freeloader."

He originally wanted to call Xiao An, who was closest to him, but when he looked up and saw Tong Qian right at the kitchen door, he was too lazy to let Xiao An make another trip.

"Good boss."

Tong Qian was also frightened by what she saw, and hurried back to the kitchen after hearing the call.

Cao Yang curled his lips and said, "Pork elbow is seven yuan a portion, and stir-fried pork is three yuan a portion. Brother Yuan, you know how to choose."

"Haha! Just tell me whether I ate the food for free or not?" Lin Yuan said with a smile.

Seeing that the two of them got along so happily, Li Jun and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As a few people were chatting, other guests came in one after another, many of whom were ghost riders that had never been heard of or seen before.

Li Jun and others also silently recorded these people.

Of course, there is also Guo Fan who was taking pictures secretly at the door. When there is no need to leave, he seems to have extra time.

These photos will be sent to the headquarters at the end of the day to create a supernatural file.

Lao Hua had already returned from Caesar Hotel with the ghost officer Lao Fan and stood at the door. Whenever someone or a ghost passed by the avenue at the bus stop, Lao Hua would be the first to call out:
“Welcome~”

So far, no one or ghost has escaped this call, which can be regarded as a warning or a display of strength.

Under this display of power, whether people came for the Peace Hotel or entered the Peace Hotel accidentally or were forced to do so, they were all shocked by this power.

Especially seeing that the one with such power is just a guard dog!

A guard dog is so scary, and there's a security guard next to him who looks like someone not easy to mess with. Is this the Peace Hotel?

After entering the Peace Hotel, everything seemed normal.

But in such a strange place, such normality seems not so normal.

Therefore, the guests who came in were very cautious and did not cause trouble at the beginning. It was as if they were dealing with some supernatural incident, looking for patterns and making use of them!
Unfortunately.

Many people can't even pass the first level, and these are people who can only control a fierce ghost but have no supernatural items.

In the Peace Hotel, when people like this come in, the ghosts in their bodies will be taken away.

The only difference is that those with a better attitude will have a meal here. Although they have to use the ghosts in their bodies as a reward, this meal can nourish their bodies and prevent them from falling into the crisis of death due to the loss of the evil ghost.

Those with a bad attitude will naturally be caught by the ghost security guards and thrown directly onto the street.

Not only was the ghost forcibly taken away, but he was not even allowed to eat a bite of food. After he got out, he was basically waiting to die.

And Lin Yuan didn't have to do anything during all this.

He Yuelian is already very familiar with all the processes and can handle these situations easily.

Of course, there are also some ghosts sent by the ghost bus. They will be called over by Lao Hua, and then carried by the ghost catcher by the neck and sent to the utility room.

In this way, the ghost security guard is clearly receiving a security guard's salary (Ghost Security Guard: Salary? Where?), but in the end he is the one doing the most work.

Fortunately, the ghost messenger does not complain about being tired, nor does he have any negative emotions, otherwise he would go on strike sooner or later.

All of this was seen by Wei Jing and others, except Li Jun, who tried to turn a blind eye and sat with his back to the gate in order to avoid being soft-hearted after seeing everything.

This was also specially arranged for him by Cao Yang.

Ah Hong sat next to him, chatting with him about random things from time to time, but it seemed more like she was comforting his broken heart.

At this moment, another strange "Welcome~" voice was heard, and it was obvious that someone came in.

Li Jun couldn't help but sigh.

Ah Hong was about to say a few words of comfort again, but Wei Jing, who was sitting opposite them, suddenly exclaimed, "Why are they here?"

acquaintance?

Li Jun turned around quickly and frowned when he saw the person coming. "Li Leping? Liu San? Aren't you guys on a business trip to Dahai City? Why are you here suddenly?"

The people who came were none other than the two captains who were supposed to deal with the supernatural events in Dahai City - Li Leping from Dachuan City, and Liu San from DQ City.

Lin Yuan also looked over and laughed in surprise, "It's Xiao Li, you brought a friend with you? But your friend... is he playing COSPLAY? Big Zongzi?"

Big rice dumplings?
Everyone immediately looked over with curious eyes, and then they saw... Li Leping, who was wearing four animals, with one animal hanging on his neck, back, waist, and thigh respectively. It was so intimate that his entire body was almost covered.

Next to Li Leping, is a...big rice dumpling!

Really big zongzi.

Of course, this big zongzi has hands and feet, and there is a face exposed in the middle of the zongzi leaves. This face is the face of a gorilla. It looks like a gorilla wrapped itself into a zongzi.

The furry gorilla's face showed a look of despair and dementia.

Li Leping was feeling very tired at first, but when he saw Liu San's condition, he burst into laughter and said, "I finally know why you have been reluctant to come to the Peace Hotel. So, so that's the reason!"

Li Leping's laughter seemed to be a switch. Then Cao Yang, Wei Jing, Ah Hong, Zhang Lei, and even the most serious Li Jun, couldn't help laughing.

The lobby was immediately filled with a welcoming atmosphere.

"Alright, alright, he is still a customer of our store after all. He may have some special hobbies. You don't have to understand him, but you have to respect him."

Lin Yuan's sense of humour isn't very high, but he has a strong endurance.

At least when facing the gorilla Zongzi Liu San, he could hold back his laughter, but when he turned his back to him, he really couldn't help but laughed silently.

He Yuelian, who originally didn't think anything of it, also burst out laughing.

She was in He Yiner's fish pond before, but after seeing Yang Xiao and Zhang Xianguang, she called Ling Yiguang to inform them, then returned to the store, ending her rare vacation.

There were also the king twins and Tong Qian who came out from the kitchen, but the one who laughed the loudest was the gorilla Fang Shiming who was carrying the ghost catcher's pants.

It seemed that seeing others more unlucky than himself made him feel particularly happy.

"Alright, alright, stop laughing, that's enough."

After laughing for a while, Lin Yuan hurriedly greeted the new guest, so as not to scare him away, which was different from his previous perfunctory attitude.

This time, everyone felt it.

If he continued laughing, he would be attacked by an unknown spirit, so he forced himself to hold it back. However, there was still something wrong with the look in his eyes when he looked at Liu San.

"Xiao Li, how about introducing yourself?" Lin Yuan showed his kindness.

Li Leping nodded, "This is Liu San, the captain in charge of DQ City, my colleague."

Liu San was in a very bad mood, but he couldn't say anything to the "store manager". What's more, they came here to do business.

So he stretched out his big furry gorilla hand, "Hello, Boss Lin, I'm Liu San."

"Hello, hello, order whatever you want to eat." Lin Yuan stretched out his hand and shook it gently, then let Liu San be served by He Yuelian, and ran back to sit at the table where Li Jun and the others were.

When his back turned to Liu San, Lin Yuan laughed silently again.

This scene left Cao Yang and others speechless, and they protested in a low voice: "Brother Yuan, you don't let us laugh, but you laugh so happily, aren't you too hypocritical?" "No way, you just talk nonsense. I'm happy, not making fun of your colleagues." Lin Yuan said unhappily.

Got it!
You are the boss, so whatever you say goes?!
But why did Li Leping and Liu San come here instead of dealing with the supernatural events in Dahai City? Haven’t they been equipped with new resources?

The so-called new resources naturally refer to the resources produced from the Peace Hotel:
The new ghost candles with wax corpses come in red and white.

Ink and ghost blood that can suppress evil spirits for a short period of time.

In order to deal with this supernatural incident, the headquarters even provided each of the two people with a surrogate doll, which was a huge expense.

As a result, at this time, they ran to the Peace Hotel...

"Manager He, we are not here to eat. We are a little nervous before work, so we came here to listen to some songs and make a wish." Li Leping walked up to He Yuelian and said.

Liu San stood aside with a sour face. It seemed that his mood would not improve unless he got rid of his current situation.

"welcome."

He Yuelian nodded and signaled Li Leping and Liu San to pay the money first.

The two of them did not hesitate and took out a body bag from behind each of them, which contained the money they paid for the music.

After all, he is the team leader and knows the rules. When he comes to Peace Hotel to consume, he will definitely bring the price with him to avoid being forced to pay by the "store manager".

After paying the money, the two sat in the seat closest to the center of the lobby.

Sitting at the ghost piano, the robot Xianglan had a very excited look on her face. She had not been doing business for a long time, and now she finally had some profit and could get one or two days’ sentence reduced!

Although the efficiency of this reduction is indeed somewhat low compared to the total time of several decades, it is still much better than Anan and others who help the "store manager" in Caesar Hotel to raise ghosts.

Soon, pleasant piano sounds rang out, and Li Leping and Liu San quickly fell into some kind of magical state.

But to other people, the sound of the piano is just an ordinary piano sound, nothing special, but the meaning revealed in it is not simple.

"The supernatural events in Dahai City don't seem to be simple, otherwise they wouldn't come to listen to the music of this ghost piano. This is leaving themselves a chance to fight to the death in advance." Li Jun sighed secretly.

The effect of the ghost piano is no longer a secret.

As long as you pay to listen to a complete piece of music played by the ghost piano, you can plant the eerie music in your mind, which can protect your consciousness until the sound of the music fades away.

It’s a bit like the white mist ghost that the “store manager” planted in the minds of the Peace Hotel employees, all of which are types of protective awareness.

However, the consciousness protection of the "store manager" requires the identity of a store clerk, while the music of the ghost piano can be listened to for money, and it only costs the price of a ghost, which is very cost-effective!
This is a life-saving prop, and it is also a desperate prop.

Cao Yang rarely straightened his face, "Not only that. Didn't you hear that they not only want to listen to the music of the ghost piano, but also want to make a wish to the wish-making cat. Using the ghost piano's supernatural power to protect their consciousness, and the wishing ghost's supernatural power to protect their bodies, the supernatural events in Dahai City may be far more terrifying than we imagined. Li Jun, when you go back later, report this matter to avoid it getting completely out of control."

Li Jun nodded seriously, "I know."

Li Leping and Liu San are both captain-level leaders who have experienced many horrific supernatural events. Their strength, experience, and character are all top-notch.

If even they are so cautious, one can imagine how terrifying Dahai City is.

At this time, a new special guest came in. Lin Yuan had already gone, so they could talk about these things now. Looking at the terrifying figure who had appeared in the blind date incident of the "store manager" in Dajing City, Wei Jing said: "I have a hunch that we are touching some truth of the previous era. Perhaps, tonight's e-sports room strategy can be postponed. Anyway, the possibility of passing it is extremely low. Why not go together to deal with the supernatural incident in Dahai City first."

"Liu San and Li Leping did not ask us for help, which means that the situation is still under control and does not require special care. We just need to pay attention to them."

Cao Yang gave a different meaning. "Compared to the mountain above Dahai City, or the tomb? Peace Hotel is our main target now. From the beginning of Peace Hotel to now, there have been too many elements, but now we haven't even fully understood any of them."

There were obvious disagreements among the group, but Lin Yuan was not aware of any of this.

Their conversation was originally kept secret from Lin Yuan, and Lin Yuan's attention was not on them at the moment. He was currently sitting at Zhang Xianguang's table.

However, the people sitting at the same table with him were not only Zhang Xianguang, but also Ling Yiguang and He Yuelian.

He Yuelian temporarily handed over the cashier job to Liu Qingqing, and sat here as a student of the spiritual light, staring at the spiritual light with her beautiful eyes.

It’s a pity that the eyes of this incredibly beautiful woman could not cause Ling Yiguang to have the slightest emotional fluctuation.

He looked Zhang Xianguang up and down and suddenly laughed, "I didn't expect that you looked so strong after the biotech surgery."

You are majestic, and your whole family is majestic!
Zhang Xianguang rolled his eyes in annoyance, but he had already handed over most of the supernatural powers to Lingyi Guang. Even if the "store manager" was not here, if they had a fight here, it would be Lingyi Guang who would pin down his original body and beat him.

Oh, I'm so angry!
"It seems like you brothers are having a good time reuniting. Come on, chat. You guys are a little uncomfortable with me here. By the way, if you need anything, you can always call me."

Lin Yuan was still thinking about business.

Zhang Xianguang came to the store to eat just a small amount of food. It was obvious that this kid was restricted and had no strength at all.

But Lingyi Guang has been developing outside and seems to have quite a lot of money.

But before that...

"Xiao He, your teacher and his brothers have reunited, so you should go to work first."

"Okay Brother Yuan."

He Yuelian gave Ling Yiguang a look, and then left with Lin Yuan. After they left, Zhang Xianguang asked, "When did you start accepting female students? And they are this age and so pretty?"

"We are one, so there is no need to worry that I will do something unethical. What's more, you know He Yuelian's situation, and I know it too. What do you think I will think of her? But you're right, we are such suspicious people, so it's understandable." Ling Yiguang rolled his eyes.

Zhang Xianguang said calmly, "The road we have to take is difficult, and it is even more difficult now. If we hadn't thought more about it, we would have been screwed by those old guys long ago."

"You are talking about Luo Wensong, right? I'm not saying anything bad about you, but at least Old Luo didn't stop your plan. But you just pushed him down from the building. Tsk tsk tsk tsk!" Ling Yiguang mocked without any hesitation.

Zhang Xianguang didn't take it as an offense at all, "Did you bring enough animals?"

"I have brought them. I have collected quite a few in the ghost cages over the years. I can give you thirty. You are now an administrator after all. Can't you use this to lower your status? Don't say you don't know how to negotiate business."

As the top figure of the same era, Zhang Xianguang could naturally think of what Yang Xiao could think of.

It is a pity.

"My status as an administrator makes me more valuable than Yang Xiao. This status may help Yang Xiao reduce his consumption in the 'negotiation', but it is a deduction for me. This time Yang Xiao went to find Yang Jian alone, probably because he wanted Yang Jian to be the administrator... No, no, it should be to let Yang Jian find someone he can trust, or even someone loyal to Yang Jian, to be the administrator, so as to achieve the corresponding goal."

Ling Yiguang touched his chin, "Sun Rui?"

"That junior may look a little frivolous, but he's actually a very upright guy, somewhat similar to... him. If he can restore the gradually out-of-control ghost post office to normal, and he only has to give up his freedom, he probably won't refuse."

"This is dangerous to our plan."

"Yes, but not much. Sun Rui is just mediocre, and all I need is a chance to go out temporarily when the time is right. This way the price will be lower, and my identity as an administrator will be retained, which is also a trump card."

At this point, Zhang Xianguang suddenly glanced in the direction of the gate, "Old Qin has been rehired by the store manager as a driver for the Ghost Bus. Do you know what this means?"

Ling Yiguang's expression also turned serious. "Meng Xiaodong said that Peace Hotel can extend people's lifespan... If that's the case, then..."

"Don't plot against Lao Qin. He can talk to the future, so any plot is meaningless. Dahai City is doing very well. Let Guihua go there as well. Take advantage of Luo Qian's revival to sneak into Chencang. He Yuelian is your student now, so you should have a chance. Don't tell me that you haven't collected all the stuff yet."

Ling Yiguang sighed, "This is the Peace Hotel. Is it really appropriate for you to say this? Even if the manager didn't hear us, our every move is under His eyes."

Zhang Xianguang said calmly: "He won't care. Perhaps, such a wonderful story is what He wants to see."

On the third floor, in the study room that shouldn't exist.

Lin Yuan listened to the entire conversation between Zhang Xianguang and Ling Yiguang. He did not expect that the supernatural events in Dahai City were actually the resurrection of the cemetery owner Luo Qian.

That being the case.

Then it is understandable that Li Leping and Liu San came to the Peace Hotel to look for the trump card.

However, this matter is actually related to the supernatural light, and the two princes, Guang and Ming, actually want to take this opportunity to take risks and create the Utopia plan in advance?

None of this matters.

The most important thing is Zhang Xianguang’s guess at the end.

"It seems that my character design is very successful. Even a person like Zhang Xianguang sees me as a high and mighty 'god'. But it is also possible that he did it on purpose to paralyze my vision and thinking. It doesn't matter. I was just worrying about what background to use for tonight's virtual game. Then let me see how far your Utopia plan has progressed."

In the lobby on the first floor.

After listening to the ghost piano played by the robot Xianglan and confirming that they had received the supernatural protection of the ghost piano, Liu San and Li Leping came to the Wish Lucky Cat.

The wish-lucky cat is actually a wish-ghost!

A terrifying ghost, at least an S-class ghost, was placed on the counter of the Peace Hotel by the "store manager", where it waved and beckoned for wealth all day long.

How ridiculous!

Liu San looked down at himself and thought, well, as a big bastard like him, he had no right to laugh at other ghosts.
