Fear of food

Chapter 35 Only by consuming the yellow essence of human flesh can one become a superior person (Please continue reading on Tuesday)
Coffee glanced at her phone: "It's not even noon yet, what are your plans for the afternoon?"

"If you're free, let's go for a stroll around the neighboring city of Yushan."

Swill asked in surprise, "Going this afternoon?"

"Yes, we already agreed to go sometime. There's no time like the present, let's do it today."

Zhui Feng said, "I need to rent a place this afternoon. How can I dare to stay in this place now! I don't even dare to go back to get my luggage!"

While teasing the dog, Dabing said, "Actually, there's no need to worry too much. Your brother is seriously injured this time, and he won't be back for at least half a month."

Zhui Feng glared at him: "I'm not as carefree as you. Who knows if he'll call in other parasites?"

Chen Qi thought for a moment and said, "I don't have anywhere to live either, how about we share a place?"

He figured he'd have to solve the accommodation problem sooner or later, and he only had a little over two thousand yuan on him, so he figured he'd save some money by sharing a place with someone.

"Are you sure? Wouldn't the danger double if we shared an apartment? My brother might come looking for us at any time, and I'd have to be careful of your mom in the future."

"my mother?"

"That's right, you have to understand, the reason our family members became parasites was specifically to manipulate us!"

“We enjoy VIP treatment. We have parasites feeding us one-on-one. They won’t stop until we eat, because we are their only target.”

Zhui Feng said earnestly, "So, Biscuit, be prepared, one day your mother will come knocking on your door."

Chen Qi felt a mix of emotions, unable to describe the feeling, and couldn't imagine what it would be like to face his mother, who had turned into a monster, again.

Coffee glared at Chasing Wind and comforted him, "Biscuit, don't worry. Your mother broke free from the parasite's control to save you. That's almost like a serious injury to the parasite. She won't reappear for at least ten days to half a month."

"It's alright, Coffee Sister. I know that's just a monster, not my mom. I won't hold back if I see her again," Chen Qi said calmly.

Coffee's gaze lingered on Chen Qi for a moment, then she hesitated before saying, "You just graduated and don't have a job yet, so you probably don't have much money, right? I'll find you a place to stay for now. Forget about the rent, I'm not short of money. Just help me clean up when you have time."

"Well... thank you very much, Coffee Sister."

Chen Qi did not hesitate to refuse and gladly accepted the coffee.

He's homeless now, penniless, and without a mother, so what's there to be ashamed of?

"Hey!" Zhui Feng complained, "The discrimination is too obvious! You have so many houses, why didn't you arrange one for me too? You wouldn't happen to be after Biscuit because she's young, trying to have an older man eat younger women, would you?"

Coffee curled her lip and said, "So what if I am? I'm so rich, can't I find a younger guy?"

However, she immediately added, "Don't bother renting a place this afternoon. I'll arrange a room in our company's staff dormitory for you later."

"Fine, a dormitory it is." Zhui Feng didn't care; his original place was already bare.

Coffee then asked, "Does the rest of you have anything else to do this afternoon?"

Gan Shui said, "It's the weekend today, so I'm free all the time."

Dabing said indifferently, "It's fine to just close the door for a day, it doesn't matter."

Zhui Feng asked, "But what about Broad Bean? Should we call him?"

"Forget it," Gan Shui said indifferently. "He'll have plenty of opportunities in the future anyway, so this one won't make a difference."

No one else said anything.

Chen Qi sensed something, but didn't ask any further questions.

"Okay, it's settled then. Is there anything else you need to prepare? Get it done in half an hour, and then we'll set off!"
-
Chen Qi never expected that his life would be so colorful on his first day in the group.

I just fought two parasites this morning, and this afternoon I'm going on a group trip with the other members.

However, he was genuinely curious about areas outside of the food horror genre and wanted to see for himself if it was as Momo described. As for preparations… he thought for a moment, found some wild food nearby to take with him, and bought some snacks from a convenience store.

These packaged snacks look normal on the surface, but once you tear open the packaging, you find strange and bizarre foods.

He wanted to see what would happen to these foods once they were outside the range of food terror.

These questions can probably be answered by Momo, but nothing is as detailed and reliable as observing things yourself.

Moreover, Momo can't observe wild food for him either.

Half an hour later, the group set off on time.

Coffee and Pancake both arrived by car, so the five of them and their dog rode in two cars.

Swill and two pancakes rode in one car, while Chen Qi and Zhui Feng rode in the white G63 that Coffee had been riding in.

The drive would take about two hours. Chen Qi sat in the back, preoccupied with his own thoughts. Although Coffee and Chasing Wind were both talkative, he had no interest in chatting.

He took out his phone, intending to send a message to Momo, when his phone vibrated. It was Momo who had contacted him first.

Momo: Coffee told me everything about you. Your situation is indeed very special; it's the first time I've heard of it.

Chen Qi was surprised that Coffee acted so quickly. After thinking for a moment, he asked the question that concerned him the most.

Chen Qi: Da Bing said that a person cannot find two high-class foods at the same time. Is this true?

momo: This is unconfirmed news, and can only be considered speculation for now, so I haven't announced it in the group.
momo: The reason we can't confirm it is because the sample size is too small. Actually, I didn't come up with this guess initially; Dabing told me about it.
Chen Qi was taken aback. How could Da Bing have made such a guess?
Or how did he arrive at this conclusion?

There's obviously only one answer, just like Coffee guessed, Big Pancake experienced it firsthand!

Chen Qi: Why doesn't Da Bing eat the high-class food he found?
momo: It's definitely because I don't want to eat it.
Momo: If we transform food into something we don't want to eat, of course we can just throw it away. But what if that food happens to be a high-end food?

momo: This is all I can say regarding Dabing's privacy.

Chen Qi pondered to himself that, normally, the special food that is transformed would be delicious to those who eat different foods, and there would be no reason for them not to want to eat it.

Unless you have a psychological aversion to the food.

Dabing's foraging ability is "he eats whatever the dog eats," but what exactly is it that he cannot accept when the dog eats it?

Could it be...

"hiss!"

Chen Qi gasped in shock. Da Bing was a ruthless guy!
"What's wrong? Did I set the air conditioner too low?" Coffee asked with concern.

"No, no," Chen Qi shook his head.

He suddenly remembered an old saying, what was it again?

Only by eating enough yellow saliva can one become a superior person?
Chen Qi put himself in Da Bing's shoes and realized that he didn't know how to break the deadlock either.

If one day he finds a high-quality wild food item that requires a defense, what should he do?

I can't eat it, but I can't bear to throw it away.

They had no choice but to keep it for now, only to discover that they could never find such high-class food again...

Chen Qi felt sorry for Da Bing for a second, then continued to ask Momo: So how credible is this guess?
momo: Based on the few examples I have so far, no one has ever possessed two high-end foods at the same time.
momo: Moreover, Dabing found its first high-end food very early on, held it in its hand for almost a month without eating it, and quickly found its second high-end food after eating it.

Chen Qi: So, we can't not believe it? It's very likely to be true?
His heart sank immediately.

This means he has to find a way to eat the cream cake in the closed ward!
