Raising her cute eyebrows, the little girl's cherry lips pouted slightly. Then, as if she had discovered something, her eyes lit up, and she continued to hold the ceramic bowl, drinking heartily.
Her expression was excited, and after finishing, she stuck out her tongue to lick the bowl clean, not leaving a single drop of the milk tea behind.
The customers were all stunned. How delicious could it be?
The sharp pain in her stomach caused the little girl to reveal a look of ecstasy and satisfaction, murmuring with immense enjoyment, "This is the taste!" She opened her eyes and looked at Nick with surprise.
"How did you come up with this?" She was referring to the shattered hair, of course.
Nick cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "Actually, I have this fetish too."
The little girl's face lit up with joy, as if she had found a companion, and she smiled, "Then I'll treat you to one too!"
Nick forced a smile and said, "No need, I already secretly tried it in the kitchen."
Their quiet conversation was like sharing their little secrets with each other. The customers around them were completely confused.
"Congratulations, host! You have gained +10 favorability from the half-ghost little girl and obtained the Rainy Night Killer Ghost's raincoat!"
"Killer Ghost's Raincoat: When worn, it can cover up the human scent, making you one of the ghosts. Mommy doesn't have to worry about me walking around anxiously anymore!"
"Note: The concealing effect only works on ordinary ghosts and is ineffective against higher-level ghosts!"
"Congratulations, host! You have gained ×20 ghost power!"
As expected of a half-ghost; the rewards are doubled.
"Not bad, I'm very satisfied with your tea snack." "Here's your tip," said the little girl as she flicked a ghost coin into Nick's hand.
It was a 500-value ghost coin! This young girl, despite her age, had the aura of a wealthy woman!
The surrounding customers saw this scene, and their terrifying faces were filled with astonishment.
This human was completely unharmed!
Ada also breathed a sigh of relief. Nick was her only spiritual support now. If he died, she felt like she couldn't last much longer either.
Without disturbing the little girl's meal, Nick stepped back and shifted his attention to the second customer. Table 7. Nick walked to the table in the farthest corner.
The customer at the table was a ghost with half of its face burned. The other half of its body had a human aura. It was also a half-ghost!
Nick was slightly startled, and then his nerves inexplicably tightened. He saw that the half-face ghost had drool hanging from its mouth, and its sickly eyes stared at Nick with a kind of excited craziness.
"What's wrong with this half-ghost?" Nick's mouth twitched, and he felt a vague sense of unease within him.
"What would you like to order, customer?" Nick asked, calming his uneasy heart.
"This is my dish," said the half-face ghost as it pushed the menu over, its sickly gaze never leaving Nick.
Nick picked up the menu, his eyebrows furrowing uncontrollably. "Infant Corpse Soup."
Nick said, "I'm sorry, but we don't have such ingredients in the restaurant.""It's fine, I've brought the ingredients," said the half-face ghost.
The half-face ghost performed a magic trick, waving his hand, and a baby appeared on the table.
It was a female infant, white and chubby, like a china doll. At this moment, she was opening her big, watery eyes, waving her little hands in the air, and giggling at Nick.
"Let's begin," the half-face ghost said with a sneer as he looked at Nick.
Nick picked up the baby girl and felt his heart become as heavy as lead as he looked at her, still hungry and waiting to be fed.
Nick averted his gaze and fixed it on the half-face ghost.
"Activating Analysis Eye: He was born a demon, and 18 female infants have fallen victim to him. When this deranged cannibal was sanctioned by the law, he was unexpectedly sent to the Horror World and made a deal with a ghost."
"After becoming a half-ghost, his deranged desires grew even more intense, with cannibalism and ghost-eating becoming his hobbies..."
Nick's face was as cold as ice. The half-face ghost's eyes suggested that he wanted more than just the baby in Nick's arms; he wanted Nick himself!
"I can't do it," Nick shook his head firmly.
"Then you'll come with me!" the half-face ghost said, unsurprised. He was just looking for an excuse to add another meal to his plate.
After all, humans were a rare delicacy in the Horror World!
As the half-face ghost stood up, Nick held the baby in one arm and tightened his grip on the bone-crushing hammer in the other.
Suddenly, he felt a weight on his shoulder. It was Pinocchio, the supervisor, who appeared beside him. He looked at the half-face ghost and said, "We don't have human baby dishes in our restaurant, sir."
The half-face ghost paused, seemingly surprised that a superior ghost in the restaurant would speak up for a human! Nick was also surprised.
After all, when Jason was taken away, Pinocchio didn't even speak up for him and even offered him a membership discount! Was it because he was a good employee with excellent performance that Pinocchio decided to help him out this time?
"Just because it's not on the menu doesn't mean it can't be made, right?" the half-face ghost said, not willing to let Nick go. He grinned eerily and continued, "Why don't you make an exception for our guest?" Pinocchio saw through the half-face ghost's intentions and didn't force Nick to make the dish. He said, "Please don't put our employee in a difficult position, sir."
Suddenly, the other half of the half-face ghost's face burst into flames, and a strong ghostly aura swept through like a flood.
"I know a ghost on the second floor of your restaurant. Shall I call him down to talk to you?" the half-face ghost said with a playful look.
The ghost on the second floor? Nick was taken aback.
Upon hearing these words, Pinocchio suddenly fell silent. After a moment, he said, "Oh, it's a friend from the second floor. My apologies for my earlier rudeness, distinguished guest. You can do whatever you want with this human." With that, he turned and disappeared.
"???" Nick was stunned. Wow, Pinocchio was so realistic!
Any goodwill he had towards Pinocchio vanished instantly!
"No one can save you now. Come with me!" the faceless ghost reached out towards Nick with his large hand.
Nick took a step back, frowning, and was about to pull out his bone-crushing hammer when he suddenly realized that the baby girl in his arms was gone.
"Aww, she's so cute! Human babies are just like little kittens, so adorable!" The baby had somehow ended up in the hands of the little girl in the red dress, who was now laughing and playing with her.
"A half-ghost?" The half-face ghost narrowed his eyes in surprise but didn't seem too concerned.
"Didn't your mother teach you that it's impolite to touch someone else's food?" The little girl was fully focused on the baby in her arms and didn't even look up at the half-face ghost.
"She's mine now," she said.
The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became tense. All the customers were staring at the two half-ghosts, wisely choosing to remain silent.
The half-face ghost, however, was unusually excited.
"Interesting, she's quite bold," he said with a grin. "I've never tried half-human, half-ghost before. I wonder what it tastes like!" His face twisted into a grotesque expression, his eyes filled with greedy madness, and his long tongue flicked out like a snake, licking his cracked lips.
"You talk too much," the little girl said, lifting her eyelids slightly.
Then, the half-face ghost's head flew off. Immediately after, its body seemed to be sliced by some terrifying sharp weapon, leaving dense cuts all over.
In an instant, it turned into a pile of fleshy chunks, scattered on the ground!
This eerie scene made the restaurant even more deathly silent. Neither humans nor ghosts saw what had happened clearly.
While Nick was horrified, he noticed that the little girl's hair was flying and swaying despite there being no wind. He stared at those dancing strands of hair.
Perhaps due to the Analysis Eye, Nick suddenly saw the little girl's face transform into the terrifying face of a woman, resembling that of Medusa!
