"Boss, bring me two dishes!"

world.

"It's just an ordinary little restaurant," Liu Ruyan said, pulling Liu Weiwei through the door as she pushed it open.

Ignoring the surprised looks from the store manager and other customers, he dragged Liu Weiwei to a secluded corner to sit down.

Having inexplicably arrived at this place, Liu Ruyan had already wandered around outside. This place was no different from an ordinary city, except that the passersby were all very strange. When she tried to ask someone a question, they would just look at her strangely and then wave her away.

What concerned her most was her sister's reaction.

It was as if she had seen something terrifying, but she had been out all day and hadn't seen anything terrifying.

We didn't even see a mouse.

Left with no other option, Liu Ruyan could only attribute it to a stress reaction after suddenly arriving in an unfamiliar environment.

"Little sister, have something to eat first."

She pushed the menu in front of Liu Weiwei.

Liu Weiwei didn't take it. She stared intently at the restaurant's food serving area behind the counter, where a person with one eye and four arms like octopus tentacles was busy in the kitchen.

And the boss and his wife, whose eight limbs looked like spiders, were watching them and whispering to each other.

"These two don't look like they can afford to eat. They don't have any items to maintain their sanity," the proprietress whispered to her wife, whose six legs were fidgeting nervously behind the counter. "Who knows? Let them sit in a corner inside so they don't disturb the other customers."

The boss nodded.

The proprietress immediately strode out from behind the counter with her six long legs and walked towards the Liu sisters.

They...they know they are monsters!

Liu Weiwei has excellent hearing and could hear the whispers between the boss and his wife, which confirmed her guess.

That is, it wasn't just her who could see it.

Instead...

Only my older sister can't see this!!

In her sister's eyes, these "people" probably still look like ordinary people.

And they know this too.

That's why they said, "Let them sit in the corner inside so they don't disturb the other guests' meal—those 'other guests' are probably just like them!"

Just as Liu Weiwei was pondering, the proprietress approached. She grinned, her mouth stretching almost to the back of her ears, revealing three rows of sharp teeth.

"Please come in, gentlemen."

"It's quieter inside, which is more suitable for guests like you from out of town."

Are you from out of town?!

Liu Weiwei's pupils suddenly contracted.

They knew they weren't from this world, and they wanted to... wanted to eat them!

run!

The thought almost instantly occupied Liu Weiwei's mind. She grabbed Liu Ruyan's arm, her voice trembling with fear.

"Sister... Sister... let's not eat, let's go..."

"Walk?"

Liu Ruyan was somewhat puzzled.

She looked at the smiling proprietress in front of her, not understanding what her younger sister was afraid of.

But as the older sister, she remained composed.

She gently held Liu Weiwei's hand and said softly, "Weiwei, although I don't know what you're afraid of, even if we leave this restaurant, we'll eventually have to eat at other restaurants, won't we? Our stomachs aren't made of iron; we still need to eat."

Liu Weiwei opened her mouth, wanting to explain.

Yet he couldn't say anything.

The proprietress's gaping maw was right in front of me, thick saliva dripping down her three rows of sharp teeth, making a sizzling, corrosive sound as it fell to the floor.

The older sister, however, remained indifferent to all of this.

If she said these people were monsters, would they suddenly attack?

That's how it's portrayed in movies.

Once the monster's disguise is revealed, it means the game has entered its final stage, and the monster is likely to kill indiscriminately.

So she could only let Liu Ruyan grab her hand.

I led her to that "quieter" corner.

The proprietress followed behind them, her six spider legs moving silently on the ground, a "kind" smile always on her face that stretched to her ears.

Liu Weiwei didn't dare to turn around.

She gripped her sister's hand tightly, her palms sweating profusely.

"You stinky bodyguard, where are you?"

"I'm so scared... Where are you? I miss you so much..."

At this moment, longing filled Liu Weiwei's heart. She remembered Ye Shu's always carefree smile and the foxtail grass he always had in his mouth.

But he's not here now...

In the corner was a table against the wall, with two stools in front of and behind it, making it a small two-person table. Liu Ruyan pulled Liu Weiwei to sit down, then picked up the menu and handed it to her.

"Let's order first."

Liu Weiwei took the menu with trembling hands, but did not open it.

"What's wrong?" Liu Ruyan asked with concern. "Is there something wrong with the menu?"

The menu is fine, of course.

The problem is that there will definitely be problems if you open it.

Liu Weiwei was in agony. Was she supposed to tell her sister that she was afraid of opening the menu and finding it full of braised chicken feet, boiled meat, steamed monkey brains, roasted whole lamb, and the like?

"No...it's nothing."

Liu Weiwei took a deep breath.

At worst, I'll just not eat any of the food once it's served.

She'll starve to death today.

Die outside!

I won't eat a single bite of food here!

Having made up her mind, Liu Weiwei felt much better and was less afraid.

She opened the menu, stared intently, and her eyes bulged out.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with the menu?"

Seeing her younger sister's stunned expression, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but feel concerned and came over to take a look as well.

She frowned as she looked at the contents of the menu.

"Isn't this perfectly normal?"

Liu Weiwei looked grim, holding up the menu in disbelief.

That's perfectly normal.

Stir-fried green peppers with pork, twice-cooked pork, hot and sour shredded potatoes, stir-fried potatoes, eggplant, green peppers, and potatoes, stir-fried eggs with tomatoes, and even stir-fried potatoes with special ingredients—it's a perfectly normal menu.

The problem is...

It's perfectly normal.

It's so normal that it doesn't seem like it could exist in this abnormal world.

Could it be that...?

A thought suddenly popped into Liu Weiwei's mind.

Actually, these things only look good on the menu, but what actually comes out is still those terrifying things.

Her face turned pale instantly.

and many more!

and many more!

The next second, it suddenly dawned on her, and she forced herself to look at the other diners who were eating. Yes, you could tell what the food looked like just by looking at the others.

Strangely, what those monsters ate was really no different from home-cooked food, if you ignored the fact that one monster with a mouth like a hippopotamus ate the whole dish, plate and all.

These dishes are a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.

What exactly is going on?

Liu Weiwei was numb.

When Liu Ruyan saw that her younger sister hadn't ordered any food for a long time, her face was turning pale and then red, and she was swaying from side to side, she knew at a glance that her sister had fallen ill again.

The proprietress was still standing to the side waiting.

She simply took the menu and ordered the food herself.

"One order of stir-fried green peppers with pork, one order of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and two bowls of rice, please." Liu Ruyan gave the proprietress an apologetic smile. "My sister isn't feeling well, so I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

The proprietress grinned, revealing a "kind" smile.

"It's alright, it's alright. If the customer isn't feeling well, we can help take care of them," she said, her six spider legs gently wriggling on the floor. "We have a special calming soup in the kitchen, would you like a bowl?"

Liu Ruyan was about to express her gratitude—

"No need!" Liu Weiwei suddenly spoke, her voice so sharp it startled even herself.

Liu Ruyan and the proprietress both looked at her at the same time.

Liu Weiwei's face was pale and her lips trembled, but she still tried to remain calm and said, "I...I have a small stomach and can't eat that much. I'll just order what I just ordered."

"Alright, please wait a moment."

The proprietress returned to the counter with the menu.

Liu Weiwei swallowed hard, her whole body still trembling uncontrollably; she felt like she was about to collapse.

She suddenly felt a pang of envy.

I envy my older sister because she can't see anything.

It's so nice to be an ordinary person who knows nothing.

"Weiwei, don't be afraid, your sister is here." Liu Ruyan reached out and gently held Liu Weiwei's cold little hand, giving her a reassuring smile.

Looking at her sister's warm smile, Liu Weiwei finally couldn't hold back her tears and they welled up in her eyes.

"Liu Weiwei, you're an adult now. It's my happiness that I can't see, but it's not your tragedy that you can see. You should use this difference to protect me!"

Trying to cheer herself up, Liu Weiwei forced a stiff smile: "Yeah, I'm fine, sister."

Despite saying that, her eyes kept scanning her surroundings warily.

The monster diners continued eating as if nothing was wrong, occasionally a few glances would fall on them, but they would quickly look away, as if they were just ordinary customers.

This put Liu Weiwei at ease a little.

At least for now, it seems that as long as they don't provoke them, they won't do anything to them.

"Your food is here!"

The proprietress's voice rang out again.

Liu Weiwei suddenly straightened up and stared at the two dishes that the proprietress brought over.

Stir-fried green peppers with pork.

Stir-fried tomatoes and eggs.

Steaming hot and fragrant, it looks no different from ordinary home-cooked dishes.

"Please enjoy your meal, gentlemen."

The proprietress's sharp claws made a sizzling sound on the dining table, but to Liu Ruyan's ears, it was just the most ordinary sound of fingernails rubbing against the table.

"Thanks."

She smiled at the proprietress, then picked up a piece of stir-fried pork with chili peppers and put it in her mouth.

"don't want!"

Before Liu Weiwei could stop her, Liu Ruyan had already chewed and swallowed.

"Um?"

Liu Ruyan tilted her head.

"It tastes really good, Vivi, you should try some too."

As she spoke, she took advantage of the moment when Liu Weiwei's mouth was slightly open in a daze, picked up a piece of stir-fried green peppers and pork with her chopsticks, and stuffed it into her mouth.

Liu Weiwei's pupils suddenly contracted.

She wanted to vomit, but the piece of meat had already slid down her throat. A warm sensation rose from her stomach and quickly spread to her limbs and bones.

It's not disgusting.

There was no pain.

I didn't feel anything bad.

On the contrary... it's quite comfortable?
