Son of the Chip King

"Have a job?" Butterfly looked at Nara Yoshino with doubts.

Nara stood up and walked towards the dark alley, where there were two huge garbage cans piled up here. The weather is getting warmer, and it is even starting to heat up, because it is the garbage can at the back door of the restaurant, most of which is food waste, and it is now Smells bad.

Butterfly Shinobu who followed in the past found that Nara Zen had been looking at the trash can all the time. She realized something and immediately lifted the lid of the trash can.

Inside the trash can are discarded leftovers and ingredients that grow hairy when they are not used up, and they are exuding a faint rancid smell at this time.Butterfly looked around reluctantly, found a branch, and pulled it inside, but didn't seem to find anything unusual.

Nara Zen took the branch from Butterfly Ninja, opened a small bag inside, and a few small pieces of gnawed bones fell to the ground.These are a few broken bones, it is difficult to tell what kind of creature it is. Butterfly Shinobu stared at it for a long time but didn't see it. It wasn't until Nara Zen pulled out a few more finger bones that Butterfly Shinobi widened his eyes in surprise.

This is a slender finger bone exclusive to primates. By the way, monkeys and orangutans are all primates, and of course, humans are too.

"Are there monkeys in Chinese cuisine?" Butterfly asked.

Nara Yoshino: "I don't know." He has never even eaten Chinese food.

Butterfly Shinobi "I didn't expect your nose to be so sensitive that you could smell it from far away."

"I didn't smell it." Nara pointed to a small black hole in the corner of the wall, "I saw it, a black mouse took a finger."

Butterfly saw the small black hole. She walked over and leaned over to take a look. The mouse hole was pitch black and she couldn't see anything.And the walls on both sides of this small alley have side doors, and garbage can be poured into the trash cans here through the side doors.

Narazen walked out of the alley and looked at the buildings on both sides of the alley. They were all Chinese cuisine written in Chinese characters. One was Sichuan cuisine and the other was Zhejiang cuisine.

The gate of the Sichuan Cuisine store was closed, but the Zhe Cuisine restaurant was full of customers with red lanterns hanging.

Butterfly asked, "Do you want to go in and have a taste? I treat you."

Nara Yoshino: “It’s good if you can eat enough.”

In this way, the two stepped into the Zhejiang restaurant with the door open.When you enter the store, you will be greeted by a strong Chinese style. Landscape paintings are hung on the walls, porcelain vases are placed in the corners, palace lanterns are hung above the head, and wooden round tables and chairs that can accommodate eight people fill the entire room.

Butterfly Shinobu and Narazen stood blankly at the door, feeling as if they had entered another world.

"Are there two guests?" A woman in a cheongsam came over with a smile. The hairpin pendant on her head swayed back and forth with the movement, showing her own charm.

Butterfly endured, "Well... two of you."

"For the two of you, please come to the small table here." The cheongsam woman led the two to the four-person table next to the window, and put down the menu with a smile, "If you want to eat, you can tell me."

Butterfly Shinobi opened the menu, all the contents were written with a brush, and the names of the dishes were clearly written. At this time, there were no pictures in the recipes, so we could only know what the contents of the dishes were based on the names of the dishes.Fortunately, most of the dishes in Chinese cuisine are simple and clear, and there will be no dishes that "look up at the starry sky" and end up with a fish that is dead to heaven.

Butterfly Ninja only ordered one or two dishes, and then handed over the menu to Nara Zen. Nara Zen didn't even look at it. He swiped his finger on the menu and said to the cheongsam woman, "This page has everything."

The cheongsam girl was taken aback, and asked again, "This is for ten people. The dishes here are a lot."

Nara Yoshino nodded, "Both."

The woman in the cheongsam smiled, "Okay, then can I use Longjing for tea?" Who doesn't make money if they have money, as long as they pay for it.

Butterfly endured "Yes."

Within a few minutes, the woman in cheongsam came with tea, and Die Die accepted it with a smile, and then asked as if chatting casually, "There are so many guests here, is the business so good every day?"

"That's right. It's better now. If you two come later, you may not even have a seat."

"It's such a good business, but the Sichuan restaurant next door isn't open." Nara put his hand on his chin and said, "Does he not want to make money?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at the cheongsam woman, and unexpectedly found a disgusted expression on the cheongsam woman's face.

"Ah, the one next door. I don't know." The cheongsam girl smiled and left.

Nara Zen and Butterfly Shinobu looked at each other, and Nara Zen asked, "Guess the game?"

Butterfly Shinobi "It's better if we act together."

Nara Yoshi "That would be too suspicious, and it's daytime now. Forget it, I'll go." Only at this time, he thanked himself for his childish appearance.

After all, children are very curious, and it is normal for them to sneak into the back kitchen of a restaurant because they are greedy for fun.And he can distinguish the existence of evil spirits.

It just so happens that there are people coming and going in the restaurant now, and there are children running around among the other guests, Nara Yoshino wants to quietly not attract the attention of the people here, it is really too simple.

There are several chefs in the back kitchen, some are in charge of cutting vegetables, those in charge of cooking spoons, and several people who also wear cheongsams and deliver the dishes according to the names and locations of the dishes.Nara Zen patrolled the group of people, but found no evil spirits.Seeing that there was a small door in the corridor at the back, which seemed to lead to the alley, he quietly walked through it.After going there, I found that the small door was locked by an iron chain, and there was no trace of opening it.

"Hey, boy, where are you from?" A man with a teapot in his hand squatted down and pressed Nara Yoshino's head and asked.

Narazen patiently pulled the man's hand away, and hypnotized himself in the bottom of his heart: I am a child, I am a child, I am a cute child who is only eight years old.

As soon as he turned around, there was an innocent and lovely smile on his face, "I'm curious, so I came to take a look. I heard that there are monkey dishes in Chinese cuisine, is it true? I want to see monkeys."

"Monkey?" The man holding the teapot was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed out loud, "Boy, where did you hear the legend. But monkeys, there were monkeys in some dishes a long time ago. But most People don’t actually like to eat that.”

Yoshino Nara "Are there really monkeys?"

"Yes, boy, do you know the dish of oiling the monkey's brain?" The man deliberately lowered his voice, threatening, "It is to fix the monkey's head in the middle, pry open the head alive, then pour boiling oil, and then dig it out with a spoon. Let’s eat, it’s scary.”

Nara Yoshi...

"Wow, I'm so scared."

Men "Always feel that your kid's expression doesn't say that."

Nara Yoshino leaned over, "Is there really such a dish?"

The man corrected his expression and replied, "Yes, there are, but this kind of dish is not considered a dish, nor is it delicious. This restaurant will not sell it. In authentic Chinese cuisine, this kind of thing will not be served."

Nara Yoshi "But I saw monkey bones in the trash can over there. Are there really none?"

Men "No, let alone monkeys, or orangutans. Don't worry about eating those weird things all day long. The West Lake vinegar fish and braised duck in our store are delicious. After you finish eating the fish in my store, I won’t think of any monkeys.” Saying that, he took Nara Zen’s hand to bring him back to the front hall.

However, the man didn't pull Narayoshi.As soon as he turned around, he saw the boy's other hand firmly grasping the iron chain that locked the door. The man thought it was the boy who was holding the iron chain so he didn't move it. He leaned over and asked, "Is there any question?"

Nara Yoshino "I want to go out, open the door."

The man "wanted to go out and walk through the front door."

Yoshino Nara "I'm going out through this door!!"

man……

So children are capricious.

"This door cannot be opened," the man replied.

"why?"

Man "lost the key."

"Then smash it open."

"Why did you smash it?"

Nara asked, "Isn't it rude to take out the trash like this?"

"We don't take out the garbage from here." The man pointed to the other side, "See, there is a side door over there, through which we take out the garbage every day, and we use the trash can over there. Do you understand, kid? So the monkey bones you found are definitely not from our store."

"The Sichuan restaurant is closed, it must belong to your family, you are lying!"

"How do you know that the Sichuan restaurant is closed?" The man shook the small teapot in his hand dissatisfied, "The Sichuan restaurant next door is not open, but it cooks every day, every day, every day... especially at night, it is the loudest It's gone! I don't know what kind of guys have gathered together, Old Tang doesn't know what's wrong with his mind...Hello?"

Nara Yoshino didn't listen any more, broke free from the man's hand, and ran back to the front hall by himself.

The man froze on the spot, "So children are the most troublesome."

When Nara Zen returned, several plates of hot dishes had already been delivered on the table. Butterfly Shinobi didn’t move at all, and was waiting quietly. When he saw Nara Zen coming, he immediately asked, "How is it?"

Narayoshi sat down, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and whispered the matter.Butterfly endured deep thought, so the question is really still a closed Sichuan restaurant?

It's a pity that the door of the Sichuan restaurant is closed now, and the side door is not open. You can only wait until there is movement at night.

Now let's eat first, Die Die endured a few mouthfuls of food, feeling pleasantly surprised.No wonder there are so many customers in this restaurant, the dishes are really delicious, among which she especially likes the West Lake Vinegar Fish, which is extremely delicious.

If I have a chance, I hope to taste it again.

It's a pity that the members of the Ghost Killing Squad are always the busiest.

In the evening, Butterfly Shinobu and Nara Zen stayed in the alley until about eight o'clock in the evening.The number of people eating gradually decreased. Although it was a big city, many shops gradually closed, and eventually even the Zhejiang restaurant that Nara Zen and Butterfly Ninja visited closed.

However, the man with the teapot came out of the shop and went straight to the Sichuan restaurant next door.

Narazen and Butterfly Shinobi were a little surprised. When they were discussing, they guessed that this man was the owner of the Zhejiang restaurant. Although they couldn't confirm it, they were almost inseparable.What is he doing at the Sichuan restaurant next door at this time?

The two quietly poked their heads out of the alley, and saw the man standing at the door of the Sichuan restaurant, knocking on the door repeatedly, "Old Tang? Come out, Old Tang?"

After knocking on the door for a long time, it finally opened with a creak, and a thin man asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

"What else can we do? Although we are business rivals, we are also neighbors who have lived here for many years since we were young." The man said in proficient Chinese, "If you have anything to do, you can talk to me. Every day in the middle of the night You’re making a fuss, what’s the fuss? You’re not doing business well. Did you know that more than one group of people asked about your store today? I cook Zhejiang cuisine, not mapo tofu! If they want to eat it, I won’t do it either!”

Nara Zen couldn't understand Chinese, but Butterfly Shin could understand a little bit, but she could only distinguish simple and commonly used words. The man's quick sentences made her unable to react, and she couldn't understand what they were talking about.

"Old Li, it's not that I didn't tell you, it's just that... you can't help me." Old Tang waved his hand and said, "Go away, don't get involved in this matter, I don't know you." The door slammed shut with a bang.

Old Li stood angrily at the door and cursed a few times for being ignorant, then turned around and left angrily.
