A startling silence fell over the restaurant. The only person who was not hunched over as though trying to hide was Xing Zhenya, but even she had become abnormally stiff.
“What’s the deal? Why’s it so quiet now? Weren’t y’all having a good time before we showed up? Could it be you don’t like us?” asked the man in the lead.

It rattled as he walked.
