EP 127. An Unexpected Visitor

"Is there really no need to go back and rest?"

"No need, boss. Look, I'm here..."

"Okay, come in and help." He beckoned and took the lead towards the back kitchen. Shi Xiaolei did not forget to say one last thing: "If you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself, you know? I don't want to see you suddenly pass out in the shop."

"Okay~."

Even Chapple, who was injured, was unambiguous, and Lisa and Claire, two girls who were already very quick, were of course even less likely to lose the chain.

In addition, there are 2B and Bayonetta to help...

Although it was a few days earlier than the scheduled time, it was a bit rushed, but after the actual customers, the operation of the store quickly got on track, and there were no mistakes.

No, it should be said that it was better than expected.

The reason is very simple. It was only the fourth day of the lunar new year, and many Chinese restaurants opened by Chinese people were not open for business. Therefore, some of the customers who originally planned to go to other restaurants were shunted to Shi Xiaolei's restaurant if they wanted to have a Chinese meal. inside.

Maybe only one-thousandth of the total number of people, maybe less, but there is still a group of extra guests. Compared with the past, the number of visitors today is actually more. In addition, Shi Xiaolei arranged the store a little bit, creating a Spring Festival atmosphere that is not usually there... The guests who entered the store felt the strong flavor of China, and naturally had some expectations for the food in the store. Then, the average quantity they ordered was a little bit more than usual.

Usually there are four dishes per table, but today it has increased to five, and the number of guests is also a little more than usual... Fortunately, all the big guys are here, otherwise, it may not be possible to come here.

From eleven o'clock in the morning to three thirty in the afternoon.

After the last lunch customer left, everyone in the shop finally got a chance to rest.

Well, I said it was a rest, but I couldn't really stop, just sit there and rest in earnest.

2B and Claire were responsible for cleaning the floor in the front hall, Lisa came to the back kitchen and helped Chapple clean the dirty dishes left by the guests, while Shi Xiaolei was busy making lunch for the big guys.

If you have to pick someone who is not too busy, there is probably only Beunita alone, and she doesn't have to do everything, no, she is sitting behind the counter, sorting out the accounts for today's "first half" business for 2B .

"Miss Bei,

Settle the bill? Let's do it later, let's eat first. "

Hearing Shi Xiaolei's greeting, Bayonetta put down the ballpoint pen, got up and walked out from behind the counter.

Although she didn't do anything special, and it wasn't the first time they met each other, Lisa and Claire couldn't help showing envious eyes when they saw Sister Bei's beautiful but extremely natural gait like a model .

As for the black boy Chapple, he looked straight at him.

"What are you doing in a daze?" He handed over the chopsticks but didn't take over, looked up and found Chapple's gaffe. Claire rolled her eyes angrily, and directly elbowed him on the ribs.

"Ah~." Clutching his ribs, looking back at Claire, Chapple had a question mark on his forehead.

"What are you looking at, eat~!" Without dodging, she stared back vigorously, Claire bared her small white teeth, and fiercely smashed the chopsticks into Chapple's face: "Here~! Take it~!"

"Wow, be careful." Jumping back subconsciously, Chapple shouted, "Are you trying to poke me blind?"

"Huh~!"

I have already seen that you are a good X, but fortunately my mother did not agree. While slandering in her stomach, Claire rolled her eyes at Chapple.

"It's alright, it's alright, don't mess around, hurry up and eat." After stopping, Shi Xiaolei picked up the spoon and started to serve the big guys: "Sister Bei, how much do you want? Is one spoon enough?"

"Enough, I'll drink more soup later."

"Okay." Passing the small bowl to Sister Bei, Shi Xiaolei picked up another bowl: "Sylvia, how about you?"

"I……"

At such a moment, a police car suddenly came to the door, and two policemen got out of the car. Regardless of the sign of "resting" on the door, they pushed the door and walked in.

Because it is cheap, delicious and affordable, occasionally some policemen who have just got off work or are on duty come to eat in the store. It is not uncommon to see police officers in uniform in the store.

"Two police officers, we are taking a lunch break right now and we don't accept guests." Thinking that the two of them had just finished their duty and stopped by to buy a meal on the way back to the police station, Shi Xiaolei handed the rice spoon to 2B and came out from behind the table. Explain to the two.

"You misunderstood, we are not here to eat."

While responding, the policeman walking in front took out his ID and showed it to Shi Xiaolei: "I am Charles Hawley from the Manhattan Branch of the New York Police Department, and this is my partner, Blake Goodley. Your shop Is there an employee named Chapple here, is he there?"

"We have something, we want to talk to him." Echoing what his partner said, another policeman named Black also added.

"????"

Did he come to investigate the case? Unexpectedly, it would be such a development, Shi Xiaolei was very surprised.

Thinking of the injury on Chapple's head again, Shi Xiaolei suddenly felt a little suspicious, thinking that what Chapple said before was a lie, and his injury was actually not that simple.

Thinking about it again, this guy usually behaves pretty well, so he shouldn't be involved in a crime, so Shi Xiaolei put away his doubts again.

Looking at the two policemen, Shi Xiaolei showed his poise as a store manager: "You two, can I ask, what's the matter?"

"Don't worry, he didn't do anything wrong." Often encountering similar situations, Charles immediately guessed Shi Xiaolei's thoughts, and gave the answer with a smile: "There is a case, he may be able to provide some clues, it's as simple as that."

"That's it~." Reassuring, Shi Xiaolei turned his head and said hello: "Chapple, I'm looking for you."

Like Shi Xiaolei, he did not expect to be approached by the police. In addition, he lived in Hell's Kitchen since he was a child, and he has been influenced a lot. He is naturally a little afraid of the police...

"Oh." Somewhat flustered, Chapple directly came to the two policemen with his job bowl in hand.

When interrogating prisoners in the bureau, a meal is often placed in front of the prisoner. Watching each other eat while talking, this situation is actually quite familiar to the two police officers.

But now...

Since he was not in the police station and Chapple was not a suspect, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

"Are you Chapple?" Forced himself to ignore the rice bowl in Chapple's hand, Charles pointed to an empty table next to him: "Let's sit down and talk."

"oh oh."

After sitting down obediently, Chapple's posture made the two police officers even more speechless—he was holding it with one hand just now, but now he was holding it with both hands. The police wanted to grab the bowl of rice in his hand.

Looking at each other, the two police officers unified their thoughts with their eyes.

"Ahem, let's get straight to the point. Mr. Chapple, I want to ask..."
