Dishes that don’t shine are not good dishes

Lonely Late Night Canteen (1000)

At twelve o’clock in the middle of the night, amidst the system’s call, Xie Yunfei gradually woke up.

Putting on clean clothes, he put all the kitchen utensils in the kitchen box. Then, Xie Yunfei called a taxi with his mobile phone.

The taxi came quickly, and the driver was a middle-aged male. He was parked downstairs in the apartment building. When he saw Yunfei enter the back seat carrying a kitchen kit, he couldn’t help feeling a little curious.

But in their line of business, unless the guest speaks first, they rarely talk to each other.

What’s more, it’s still early in the morning, and the driver has already worked all day. Although he hasn’t reached the point of driving fatigue, he is still a little tired.

After finishing this vote, go back.

Thinking this way, he asked Xie Yunfei who was sitting in the back seat, “Little Master, where are you going?”

“Just follow my instructions.” Xie Yunfei’s tone was a little strange. Just now, the system had already printed the place he needed to go to in his mind, but that location…

“Okay.” Although the driver was puzzled, he didn’t say much. He stepped on the accelerator and started the taxi.

“Turn left ahead…turn right here…turn left…turn left again…”

Along the way, Xie Yunfei seemed very silent. He would only make a sound when the taxi needed to turn a corner. For the rest of the time, he mostly rested his chin and looked out the window.

The scene after midnight in Tokyo is similar to the situation in other countries and regions. Although it can’t be regarded as pitch black, it also looks a bit desolate.

About half an hour later.

“Here we are, master, it’s here.” Just as the taxi entered a tunnel, Xie Yunfei said suddenly.

“Eh? What?” The driver was a little confused, so he thought he had heard it wrong.

“I said, you can stop.” Xie Yunfei shook his head. He had never thought that the location given by the system would be such a place.

He took out the money and handed it to the stunned driver. After the taxi stopped, Xie Yunfei opened the door and walked out with his kitchen kit. After only two steps forward, as if he remembered something, he suddenly turned his head and told the driver in the driver’s seat, “When there is no one around, try not to come to such unclean places.”

When no one is around? Are you not human?

The driver was about to refute, but before he could blink, the boy who was standing beside the car disappeared.

“Ah…” His eyes widened, and countless legends related to drivers, taxis, tunnels, and ghosts flashed through his mind.

I ran into a ghost? I met… a ghost? ! ! ! ! ! !

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!”

After the initial astonishment, there was endless fear and fear. The driver was just an ordinary person, so he didn’t dare to think too much. He stepped on the gas pedal to the end. Then, the taxi seemed to be transformed into an 86 on Qiu Mingshan, throwing several people in the tunnel. Drifting, the driver escaped from the tunnel in an instant at a speed that the driver would never dare to drive normally.

Not long after that, the legend that a certain tunnel was haunted slowly spread among many drivers and residents in Tokyo.

Not to mention the driver who fled quickly, in the tunnel, Xie Yunfei, who was carrying the kitchen utensil box, didn’t actually move or disappear… Well, it’s a little inaccurate to say that, his figure did disappear in front of the driver, but That’s because a door suddenly appeared between him and the taxi driver.

The door blocked the driver’s line of sight, coupled with the dim tunnel lights, made the driver think of a haunted place.

But… In a sense, it seems that there is not much difference.

Looking at the door that appeared out of thin air in front of him, to be honest, Xie Yunfei was also a little frightened. But after all, he has even experienced things like time travel, so he didn’t panic too much.

He took a few deep breaths to calm down his inner emotions. At the same time, he glanced at his mobile phone. Seeing that there were still about ten minutes before the two o’clock specified by the system task, Xie Yunfei was not in a hurry. He stretched out his hand towards the edge of the door, but after touching nothing, he turned the doorknob again.

The door should be locked. No matter whether Xie Yunfei pushed or pulled, he couldn’t open the door in front of him.

“Can I enter after the time is up?” Xie Yunfei muttered softly. Then he circled the gate twice more. There is nothing on the other side of the gate, it is like a painting on white paper, the front is colorful, but the back is just a piece of white paper.”System, is this what you call a ‘normal phenomenon’?” Xie Yunfei complained.

This time, the system rarely rebutted, [Host please prepare well, once the time is up, the test will begin. 】

“Of course I understand this.”

But what is the so-called preparation?

Xie Yunfei glanced at the kitchen utensils box at his feet. In the past two days, he bought a set of all the kitchen utensils he could think of, and the types of dishes he could cook suddenly increased.

But this didn’t make him happy. He was in a daze with a… well, two dangerous missions, and neither of them would be in a good mood.

“System, the next test…is it difficult?” Xie Yunfei hesitated for a moment, but still asked out the anxiety in his heart.

[This time the test was not issued by the system, so the system cannot give a clear answer. 】The system answered impeccably. Obviously, before Xie Yunfei asked, it had already prepared the belly draft. , or creatures in various legends and myths, can’t hurt the host at the place opposite the door. After all, the responsibility of the system is to make the host a best cook, not to make the host a dessert on someone else’s plate. 】

“After you say that, why do I feel even more panicked?”

Xie Yunfei shook his head. Seeing that the minute hand was pointing to 12, he stopped hesitating, stepped forward, and pushed open the door.

At this moment, the world he was originally in came to a standstill. The water droplets were frozen in the air, and the autumn leaves could not fall to the ground. Even the lights in the tunnel that were still flickering before were completely plunged into darkness at this moment.

An inexplicable murmur sounded in his ears, it was a language that Xie Yunfei had never heard before.

Yiya~ Yiya~

It seems to be singing, sighing, and crying.

Yiya~ Yiya~

Men’s voices, women’s voices, old people’s voices, and children’s voices.

Yiya~ Yiya~

The shouts of humans, the roars of monsters, and the sighs of gods and demons.

Countless voices echoed in Xie Yunfei’s ears, as if they wanted to tear and crush his soul. Fortunately, the system activated the protection in time and did not keep him from being harmed.

But even so, with the appearance of the light behind the gate, the surrounding voices gradually became louder, and when the gate was completely opened, a figure appeared in front of Yunfei who understood Yunfei, and at the same time, there was a voice that seemed to be A ballad that can completely destroy sanity.

Yiya~ Yiya~

Cthulhu… send sugar!
