The Evil God of Hogwarts

After a brief silence, the chef spoke again: "So you found the person you were looking for?"

"If you mean Frank, I didn't find it."

"Well, that's a shame. I've lost another regular customer in my store. Jezebeth, tell me, you're the same kind of person as us?"

Xing Ze gently put the spoon back on the plate and asked curiously: "Who are you?"

"You know what you're asking, sir." The chef grinned, "However, it is true that you should give your name before asking others. Then introduce yourself, Thursday."

"Real name, or game name?"

Hearing this, the chef was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It seems you know something about us."

"Know yourself and know the enemy."

"No one is stupid enough to use their real names. In my original world, I was careless and uncertain. But then, lo and behold, I own my own restaurant."

"How long have you been here?"

"Well -" the chef narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, "Ten...eleven years."

"Have you ever thought about going back?"

The chef shook his head and said: "I said, I have no worries in that world. I am much more comfortable here. Okay, enough about my situation, let's talk about yours."

"Before that, can I ask Jezebeth how she saw me?"

"She has this ability, which is her unique skill. Just like I can make delicious cakes, she can see a person's soul."

"Is this a metaphor? Seeing into a person's soul?"

"Absolutely. She just has this ability. When I first came to this world, I was guided by her."

"She's missing now."

"Not counting her disappearance, she disappears for a while every year and goes around the country looking for people like you and me."

"How can I contact her?"

The chef took out an envelope from his pocket and put it on the table. "She has another temporary residence in York. She goes there almost every year to see where you might be able to find her. The address is on the letter."

"Why help me?"

"I have seen many investigators die. But this time, the number was a bit too much. Plus, Frank, although he is a narcissist, he is also a fellow countryman I don't know much about in this world."

Xing Ze reached for the letter, thought about it and asked, "What was the name of the world you lived in before?"

"Earth. But it's also called Earth, isn't it?"

Xing Ze suppressed the excitement in his heart and said thanks: "Thank you for the cake. But please forgive me, I can't tell you about me."

"Ah, I understand. People who come here are full of suspicion." The chef nodded. He didn't ask more about Xing Ze's identity, but stood up and left his seat.

Not long after he left, the door to the restaurant opened and two ladies walked in. Xing Ze raised his head and looked over there.

The clothes these two people wore were not high-end. The lady with curly brown hair looked slightly better. As for the other girl, it was obvious that she did not expect to meet in such a high-end restaurant, so she only wore a simple pair of clothes. floral skirt.

The lady with curly hair came to the front desk in a familiar manner and asked. Within half a minute, her eyes turned this way, while her companion, the lady with semi-long hair, was looking around uneasily.

Xing Ze raised his hand to signal, and the curly-haired lady understood and pulled her companion towards this side.

"What do you need, you two?" Xing Ze asked the ladies who were seated.

"Have a glass of gin." The curly-haired one took off her sunglasses and replied, "Kelly, who are you?"

"Quentin." Xing Ze replied with a smile and looked at the other lady, "What about you? What do you want?"

"Anything is fine, as long as it's not alcohol."

"Her name is Serena. Give her a glass of iced tea." Kelly added, "This is her first time, so she will inevitably be a little nervous."

"Understandable. So, you are companions?"

Kelly nodded, "We were roommates in the original world. Are you in trouble?"

Xing Ze showed a wry smile and said: "Everyone is not here yet, madam, don't worry. The desserts here are very good, you can also order some."

"Really?" Kelly looked around. She was a sign, especially her lipsticked lips were quite sexy.

"Of course, I'm treating you." Xing Ze promised.

Serena waved her hand and said, "Let's forget it. I think the price is not cheap."

"You can rest assured. I'm not a rich man, but an afternoon tea is more than enough."

Compared with the open-minded Kelly, Serena is much shy. She has some freckles on her round face, light green eyes, thin lips, speaks in a low voice, and always lowers her head. , dare not look at others.

"That's what everyone said, Lina, please order. It's rare that this gentleman is such a gentleman."

Xing Ze called the waiter, Kelly ordered a soufflé that was not too expensive, and Serena only ordered the cheapest carrot cake.

After taking a few bites of the dessert, Kelly asked, "Mr. Quentin, how many times has this been done?"

Xing Ze recalled the information on Quentin's phone and lied: "First time."

"Oh, no wonder you sent out a distress signal. This is an A-level mission." Kelly said with wide eyes.

At this moment, the door of the restaurant opened again, and the clear ringing of the bell made the three of them look at the door in unison.

Two men came, one looked to be in his forties, with a beer belly and a thick beard on his chin that was already turning white. The other one was dressed more peculiarly. He was about 20 or 30 years old, wearing a deerstalker hat, and his alert eyes swept back and forth in the restaurant.

While the middle-aged uncle was still asking the front desk manager, he had already discovered the location of Xing Ze and his party. He turned his head slightly and said something to his companions.

The middle-aged uncle also turned to look at Xing Ze, and then the two of them came to the dining table as a matter of course.

This dining table is large enough to accommodate eight people discussing matters together, so it won't feel crowded even with the two newcomers.

The middle-aged uncle wisely sat far away from the ladies, while the man in the deerstalker hat sat near the door.

"My name is Mike." The uncle said cheerfully, stroking his beard. Although he looks like a fat brown bear, this tall, menacing-looking man has a gentle voice.

The man in the deerstalker hat with a vigilant look on his face did not speak. He took out a pipe from his pocket and was about to put it in his mouth when Serena on his left reminded her: "Here, no smoking is allowed here. "

"Oh, beautiful lady, I didn't mean to light it on fire," the man said. "My name is Lanny, and I'm a private detective. Looks like everyone's here."

"No, there's still one left." Xing Ze replied, "Quentin, I sent a distress signal."

Lanny changed the position of the pipe in his mouth, and he asked puzzledly: "But isn't it true that only five people can participate in this task?"

"No, there are five people besides the initiator who can participate." Xing Ze explained, "I was also deceived at the beginning, so I contacted another investigator."

Mike nodded in agreement: "Indeed...it does happen. Sometimes the mission information given by this software will completely mislead you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of bells was heard at the door, and everyone except Lanny looked at the door.

The visitor was a formally dressed gentleman with a slicked back hair and a confident smile on his face.

Well, everyone is alive. Xing Ze secretly said.
