Xie Chen opened the glass door outside, slowed down and walked in.
Even if there are activities, the passenger flow here is very sluggish, there is not even a single customer, of course, this description is except for myself.
Xie Chen pulled the glass door back, but it didn't retract automatically.
Originally, this restaurant didn't look too low-end, but this thing actually had to be operated manually, and the settings were a bit not very user-friendly.
"Hello...Hello..."
Xie Chen came to the ordering counter with an uneasy look on his face, his mouth was hoarse and speechless, because it felt like a very, very long time had passed since the last time he ordered.
If I was asked to order the food this time, I would be a little uncomfortable with it.
I feel that I am speechless, and I am a customer, but I am so respectful to the waiter in this restaurant.
It's like the identities are reversed.
Obviously this guy is sitting in front of the ordering counter and even playing with the mobile phone in his hand. How can I respect him in this situation?
Xie Chen couldn't help but slap his face with a slap, which made him wake up.
"What the hell..."
Xie Chen's face was covered with black lines, and he didn't even feel hungry for a while. Just looking at the service attitude, he couldn't bring up any appetite.
If you are a more angry person, your stomach may have been occupied by your violent temper, let alone being able to be calm and reasonable.
Xie Chen gently knocked on the ordering counter in front of him. There were no customers at all. If he didn't come in, the restaurant would be even more empty.
But the sound of his footsteps just now was loud. Didn't he believe that the guy sitting in front of the ordering counter didn't know when he walked in?
Even though he knocked on the ordering table twice with his hand, the guy still lowered his head and didn't even have the intention to raise it up.
Xie Chen was also a little angry, and even wanted to drag this guy up, but when he thought of the strange reaction from just now to now, he couldn't help but hold back.
I don't know why this guy ignored me now. Could it be that he was being eroded by something strange?
Xie Chen calmed down his temper and did not allow himself to act according to his temper.
Xie Chen took two steps back and quickly checked around the restaurant. Fortunately, he found nothing unusual and there were no other people coming or going.
There was no one in this restaurant at all, but it was precisely because of this situation that I felt that it was still safe for the time being.
Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief. As long as no one was following him, his life would not be in great danger for the time being.
He stared at the waiter sitting in front of the ordering counter, and then immediately retracted the hand on the ordering counter.
As if he sensed something, this guy immediately raised one of his hands and quickly placed it on the ordering table.
With a snap, the entire quiet restaurant heard a slapping sound.
Xie Chen squinted his eyes and stared at this guy who didn't even raise his face with great vigilance.
Before he could speak, this guy had already made a sound.
"What would you like to eat?"
Xie Chen watched this guy put his hand where he had just put it, and actually asked him what he wanted.
Could it be that this guy is actually a normal person?
But normal people shouldn’t behave like this...
Seeing that he didn't reply to him, the guy finally raised his numb face in front of him.
I didn't see any emotion in his eyes, but more of a lifeless feeling.
After raising his face, he still had no intention of answering him, so the guy finally spoke.
It's just that the voice sounds a bit numb to you, even too robotic for you.
"Sir, could you please tell me what you would like to eat?"
"Our store has recently launched activities. For details, you can refer to the menu to make corresponding choices, and I will arrange it for you immediately."
Listening to these sounds, Xie Chen felt his scalp numb.
It feels like I'm talking to a doll, and it's even a doll with all the programming set up.
"I don't know much about your store. Do you have any good recommendations?"
Xie Chen felt the strange characteristics of this guy and immediately made a corresponding judgment.
The result was not what he expected. This guy was not able to completely solve his problem.
"Our store has launched new activities. You can refer to the detailed menu and make the choices you need. I will arrange them for you immediately."
Although the order of speaking was changed, the content of the words basically remained the same.
Xie Chen lowered his head and glanced. This reply was what he expected. As expected, everyone outside except himself was acting abnormally.
There is no need to work too hard on this, as there won't be much gain.
Xie Chen looked at the menu on the ordering table, took a quick glance, and then confirmed the waiter's request.
"Just bring me the first set meal."
The waiter tapped the keyboard twice on the computer next to him, and then asked repeatedly.
“Is the first set meal enough?”
"The laptop package is a Coke and a hamburger. This package is not included in today's discount. Do you need to make changes?"
He saw the waiter looking at him, obviously looking for an answer.
Xie Chen shook his head.
The rest of the discounted packages are all for two or more people, and only one person needs to pay some money, which is indeed a special discount.
Of course I am not a fool, but the reason why I still choose the first set meal at the original price is because the rules only allow me to order one staple food and one drink.
I don't want to break the rules just because I'm greedy for petty advantages, which can easily lead to trouble.
And it doesn’t mean that as long as you pay less, you can put the remaining money in your pocket and take it back to the real world.
I still have to work hard to continue to hold on in the weird world here. If it were not restricted by the rules, I would also like to reward myself.
But the truth is that conditions don’t allow it, and there is nothing I can do.
"Just order the first set meal for me."
In order to ensure that there would be no accidents, Xie Chen gave another warning to the waiter who had no emotions whatsoever.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I will prepare food for you."
Although he said this, the waiter did not get up and go to the kitchen. Instead, he turned around and patted the bell at the back.
A crisp sound sounded in the restaurant, and immediately after, the waiter stuffed a printed order into the window at the back.
Xie Chen glanced at it and was already sitting in the seat next to him.
The feeling this waiter gave me was a bit like Spongebob's sense of déjà vu.
Xie Chen shook his head helplessly. His stomach was already growling in protest, but he couldn't wait. After all, he had just ordered the meal and the food was not served so quickly.
Even if the burger is prepared in advance, it still needs to be preheated in the microwave.
I have worked in the kitchen for a while before, so I naturally know some of the methods involved.
But now I’m hungry and I can’t choose what to eat.
No one who works hard outside dares to be picky about food under the pressure of the environment. Picky eaters will go hungry. That's the situation anyway.
Over time, no matter how picky you are, you will become able to eat a lot more.
Xie Chen looked outside the door of the restaurant. At this time, there were more vehicles passing by, and the speed was also much faster.
I took a fancy to the wall clock next to the restaurant. It was almost ten o'clock now.
To be precise, it should be 10:12.
If I eat faster, I should finish it around 10:30, so I guess the time won’t be too much.
Xie Chen stretched his waist, and at this moment, a figure suddenly walked up next to him, but he was startled.
After taking a closer look, I realized that it was actually the waiter from before.
"Hello guest, this is the food you ordered. In addition, because our store has a discount today and you are our first customer today, we will give you two extra egg tarts. Please keep them."
Xie Chen couldn't help but stiffen as he looked at the extra egg tart in front of him.
I thought that if I just ordered the first set meal, one staple food and one drink, nothing would happen, at least it wouldn't violate the rules.
Even if you can't eat enough, it will fill your stomach more than drinking a can of milk.
But what I really didn't expect was that this restaurant would actually give away extra food.
"Can I go back?"
"I don't want to eat this, I'm allergic to egg tarts..."
Xie Chen was a little embarrassed. When he had no choice but to make up such an excuse, he didn't want to explain to the waiter.
"No sir, this is an event our store has just conveyed from above, and you are our store's first customer today."
"If you can't eat egg tarts, we can also offer you other foods of the same amount, but you have to accept it."
Xie Chen gritted his teeth. He didn't expect that he had deliberately avoided the rules, but this shabby shop actually had such an activity.
Judging from the business hours hanging outside, I also knew that the store opened at eight in the morning, and it was now ten o'clock, but I was the first customer.
If it weren't for this guy's expressionless face but being able to talk to me without emotion, I would have wanted to jump and scold him.
"No, I really can't. I'll just give you this egg tart."
"And I've eaten something before, and I'm still quite full now in the city. I can't eat this egg tart no matter what."
Xie Chen shook his head and refused again.
The waiter was stunned, as if he had never faced such a situation before. He stood there with his eyes squinted, not knowing what he was thinking.
But he quickly reacted.
I originally expected this guy to react normally, so I took a break and picked up the Coke and took a sip.
But this Gou Ba thing was actually repeated again.
"No, sir."
"If you don't want the egg tart, we can exchange it for you with other foods of the same amount. You are the first customer under our store's promotion and must enjoy the benefits that our store should have."
Xie Chen was already a little impatient. He slapped the dining table with his hand and then waved.
"I know, I know…"
"Forget it, pack these two broken egg tarts for me. I'll take them away after I finish them."
"Okay sir, please wait a moment, I will make arrangements for you now."
Xie Chen blinked, and the guy turned around and walked towards the front desk. He actually took out a box and put the two egg tarts in it.
Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly picked up the burger and looked at it.
Fortunately, after looking up and down, I didn't find anything strange about this burger.
Whether it's the chicken steak on top, the bread, or even the vegetables and sauce, there's nothing wrong with it.
Xie Chen relaxed a little and quickly took three or four bites of the burger, which immediately filled his entire mouth.
In less than six or seven seconds in the blink of an eye, the entire hamburger had been wiped out by himself.
Xie Chen picked up the Coke and took a big gulp, barely giving his mouth room to turn over.
Xie Chen looked at the waiter in front of him. As soon as he buried his head, he quickly got up and ran out with a Coke in his hand.
Although his movements were extremely anxious, he still tried his best not to make any other sounds.
It wasn't until he let go of the door and ran out that the unclosed door remained ajar. It seemed that because of this, the waiter realized that the first customer had already ran out of the restaurant.
"etc!"
“You haven’t taken the discount from our store yet!”
Xie Chen ran out of the street for about twenty meters, still breathing heavily, but he slowed down a little.
He heard the clerk walking out of the restaurant door and shouting loudly in his direction.
Not only that, but underneath the hand he was remembering, he was still holding the packaged egg tart.
Naturally, he pretended not to see it, and even hurried to the intersection to turn left.
If he really ordered that portion of food, then he would be equivalent to ordering two staple dishes. From a rule perspective, he would be considered a complete violation of the original rules.
I don’t know what will happen?
It is particularly necessary to avoid at least one troublesome thing now.
It's still a little while before half past ten, and this period will last until ten o'clock in the evening before he can go home.
It is not yet clear what kind of trouble we will encounter during this period.
"call……"
"Fortunately, no one caught up..."
Xie Chen calculated it, and found that there was a bridge going forward on this main road.
Judging from this scale, it should be regarded as a river.
If you cross this bridge, I don't know if you can find factories or something nearby.
The business building and the office building should not have much connection with the factory.
It's just that I can't guarantee this, so it's the only direction I can confirm now.
Just find the unknown humanoid creature outside here first.
I guessed that it should be the strange incarnation of this copy.
But how to clear this copy?
I only have a rough idea in my mind, but I haven’t verified whether it’s correct or not.
We still have to wait until we find the humanoid creature in that location and confront him face to face.
