Chapter 699 Hair
The drought demon was pierced through the heart by a sword, and instantly lost his vitality and his limbs fell down.
A stream of black water slowly flowed out from the sword wound in his heart, and Hanba's entire body began to rot.
After finally defeating the drought demon, He Qingheng and the other two sat down in disgrace, covered in dust.
Chen Yile and Shi Lingye were also lying on the ground. When they saw each other's embarrassment, they all burst into laughter.
"Thank you!"
Chen Yile thanked the three people.
The three of them waved their hands, indicating that it was not worth mentioning.
They originally went to the headquarters to see how Shi Lingye was doing with Chen Yile's training, but Lin Qingyao told them that Shi Lingye had gone with Chen Yile to investigate the mine incident.
The three of them were worried and rushed over again. As soon as they arrived, they heard a dull rumbling sound and the ground began to shake.
They followed the source of the shaking and saw Chen Yile and Shi Lingye fleeing out of the mine.
The drought demon was chasing them closely.
When they saw the emergency, they immediately came to the rescue.
"I didn't expect that the Changsheng Cult had hidden a place behind the mine where they sacrificed living people to the evil gods."
He Qingheng sighed.
Chen Yile nodded: "The Changsheng Cult has already used all means to improve its strength. There will be many more such incidents in the future. Our work is far from over."
The three of them recovered, got up, and returned to the headquarters of the Spirit Detective Organization together.
When he arrived here, Chen Yile found that Lin Feihong and the others had returned.
When Lin Feihong saw Chen Yile, he immediately asked about his injuries.
"Brother Yile, are you okay? If there weren't so many things going on over there, I would go with you."
Chen Yile smiled and did not blame Lin Feihong.
"You have now become the backbone of the Psychic Detective Organization. I couldn't be happier."
Chen Yile arranged for the organization to prepare a delicious meal and invited He Qingheng and others to have a good meal.
In the evening, when Chen Yile was resting at home, he suddenly received a message on his mobile phone.
One netizen asked: "Host, are you still here recently? I have something I want you to take a look at."
Chen Yile replied: "Yes, let me see what you said."
The other party said that he was the owner of a small restaurant and that strange things had been happening frequently in the restaurant recently, seriously affecting the business.
It was getting late, so the other party said they would not disturb Chen Yile's rest and asked him to come to the store tomorrow morning for detailed discussion.
A night passed, and the next morning, Chen Yile drove to the address mentioned by netizens - Azhen Food.
The person who contacted Chen Yile was the store owner Azhen.
"Are you the host? Please take a seat."
When Ah Zhen saw Chen Yile, she quickly invited him to sit down and poured him some water, being very polite.
"Can you tell me what happened to you?"
Azhen sat opposite Chen Yile and talked about the strange things that had happened in her restaurant recently.
"Since I opened this shop, business has been booming, with many people coming to eat every day. However, recently, for some reason, strange things have been happening to people who come to eat at my shop."
Ah Zhen's restaurant was clean and tidy, but her face was gloomy because of the recent strange things, and her eyes revealed anxiety and helplessness.
There are several common menu items hanging on the walls of the restaurant, but no one is interested in them now. The few customers make the whole store look particularly deserted.
"For example, some customers found something strange in my dish. It looked like a piece of meat, but they couldn't tell what kind of meat it was."
When Ah Zhen said this, she clenched her hands tightly, her nails almost digging into her palms, and she was obviously uneasy.
Chen Yile could feel her nervousness, and even the air seemed to become heavy.
"Don't worry, I'll help you."
He softened his tone, hoping to make Zhen relax a little.
Ah Zhen nodded. Although there was still a hint of anxiety in her eyes, she was not as nervous anymore.
"Once, a customer fell asleep while eating and I couldn't wake him up no matter how hard I tried. I thought he was sick and wanted to take him to the hospital."
"Who would have thought he would wake up as soon as he left our store? We couldn't figure out what happened when we asked him."
"Another time, a customer was drunk and vomited all over the floor. When I used a broom to clean it up, I found blood on the handle."
"At first I thought the customer was drunk and accidentally got it, but then several more customers vomited while eating, and what they vomited was not only food, but also blood and gastric juice."
"It was such a disgusting scene that even my waiters were terrified. I had to close the shop for a few days to avoid the spotlight."
Chen Yile nodded: "You mean, bad things will happen to customers who eat at your restaurant?"
"Yes, although no one has been directly injured, this situation makes us have to be on guard. If something happens to a customer while they are eating, my shop will not be able to operate."
Ah Zhen had a worried look on her face. Her restaurant used to be very profitable, but she hadn't expected such strange things to happen one after another recently. She was extremely anxious.
Chen Yile asked again: "Are there any other strange things?"
Ah Zhen nodded. "I usually sleep in the bedroom inside the hotel. One night, I got up to go to the bathroom. When I passed the kitchen, I heard a gurgling sound coming from inside, as if someone was chewing food."
"I was so scared that I wanted to turn on the light to see what was going on. However, when I turned on the light, it was suddenly quiet inside. There was nothing there."
"I was so scared that I didn't dare to stay any longer. I hurried to the bathroom, then ran back to the bedroom and hid under the quilt. I didn't dare come out all night."
Ah Zhen finished telling all the strange things that happened in the store recently in one breath. She relaxed completely, sat on the chair and gasped for breath, with sweat on her forehead.
Chen Yile nodded. This was indeed beyond the ordinary situation and deserved to be taken seriously.
At this time, the waiter came over and said to Ah Zhen, "Boss, a customer has ordered food."
Chen Yile nodded: "You go and greet the guests first. I already have a pretty good understanding of the situation."
A customer happened to come, and Chen Yile planned to see if the customer would have any problems with the food so that he could look for clues as soon as possible.
Ah Zhen went to greet the guests, and soon the dishes the guests ordered were served.
"Your signature fish-flavored shredded pork is ready."
The waiter put the dishes on the guests' table.
However, the guest tasted it with a chopstick and couldn't help frowning.
He retched and spat out something from his mouth. It turned out to be a strand of hair, sticky with vegetable juice and gastric juice.
The customer instantly flew into a rage, slamming the table and shouting, "What's wrong with this restaurant? There's actually a hair in the dish, a bunch of it at that. You're trying to disgust me to death!"
Ah Zhen quickly went up to apologize, and after much persuasion and compensation of two hundred yuan, she finally persuaded the customer to let the matter go.
"You see, I cooked this dish myself. I looked at all the ingredients and stir-fried them countless times. I never let it out of my sight. I don't know how this hair got here."
Ah Zhen seemed to collapse again and suddenly sat there slumped.
