My Restaurant's Guests are All Abnormal

Chapter 223: Chapter 83 Is this what family love feels like? Totally loving it

Chen Ze silently stared at the mango mousse in front of him. He had managed to make it, but he was a bit puzzled about what this restoration really meant.

If it were about restoring the C drive with one click, Chen Ze would have understood, and could have even done it manually. But if it were about restoring Chimeras...

Chen Ze felt a bit panicked, as the unknown was always so frightening. Moreover, Nina could no longer think for herself now.

Chen Ze scratched his head, but no matter what, even death shouldn’t be something for Nina to fear anymore, right? free𝑤ebnovel.com

And from a certain perspective, death seemed more like a release for Nina.

"Nina, come eat this," Chen Ze placed the mango mousse down before her, then watched as Nina sniffed it.

This action made Chen Ze feel even more uncomfortable. Had Nina really lost her ability to think?

Despite having watched the anime in both versions, it wasn’t until he witnessed the scene with his own eyes that Chen Ze realized his mood had become quite heavy.

Nina ate the mango mousse in one bite, then stood still as if in a daze.

Chen Ze watched nervously, knowning that Nina’s line "Big—brother" was like a critical hit to anyone who had watched Fullmetal Alchemist.

A dazzling flash of light passed, and then Chen Ze saw the massive Chimera suddenly split into two shadows.

Chen Ze looked on in surprise, Nina had really separated from Alexander, but...

"Betty, take Nina upstairs to change her clothes," Chen Ze said somewhat awkwardly as he touched his nose.

Nina had separated, but she was still unconscious, and moreover, unclothed.

"Got it, Manager!" Betty nodded immediately and led Nina upstairs.

Chen Ze patted the large dog Alexander on the head. This dog seemed to recover its consciousness quickly, now looking at him with innocent eyes.

Only Chen Ze knew how he could detect innocence in a dog’s eyes.

After a short while, Betty came down, but Nina wasn’t with her.

"What’s the situation?" Chen Ze frowned and looked at Betty. Could it be that Nina was still unconscious?

"She hasn’t woken up," Betty shook her head and then picked up the plate from the ground.

"Alexander!" Chen Ze called out. The dog in front of him didn’t move, but its tail wagged even more happily.

Chen Ze was a bit conflicted. After all, a dog is a dog. As long as it remembers its master, it shouldn’t be this affectionate toward him. Could it be that the restoration...

"I want a fish dish!" a female voice burst in, followed by a male voice.

"Sister, how many times have I told you not to kick the door!" Jack rubbed his temples with a look of distress.

He was really fed up with his sister, who behaved like a savage all the time. It’s not the Middle Ages—kicking open a restaurant door? Did she want to get blacklisted?

"I’m sorry, Manager, my sis..." Jack looked puzzled at Chen Ze. Someone kicks in your door, and you can still smile like that?

This made Jack glance back at the restaurant’s front door. It wasn’t damaged and didn’t seem to be made of precious wood, which reassured him quite a bit.

"Fish dish? No problem. Do you still want fried chicken?" Chen Ze smiled and turned to Jack.

"No, no, no, I want fish dishes too," Jack immediately shook his head, what a joke, if he had known before, he wouldn’t have chosen the fried chicken at all.

Fried chicken is crap, compared to the fish he’d been longing for, it’s not even worth mentioning.

Alice sat down on the chair with gusto, slapped the table, and declared, "Innkeeper, bring me a pot of your finest wine, and three pounds of cooked beef~"

At those words, Betty’s face darkened, ’innkeeper’? Your whole family are innkeepers.

Chen Ze could not help but feel a mix of amusement and confusion; he was increasingly baffled about what kind of world this brother and sister duo came from. Those phrases sounded like something out of ancient times.

"Sorry, sorry, my sister has been a bit neurotic ever since she watched ’105 Men and 3 Women’," Jack said unflinchingly, forming a water ball with magic and placing it over his sister’s head.

"Jack!" Alice stood up angrily, looking ready to take his life.

"The two of you, I have a fantastic fish dish here, would you like to try it?" Chen Ze interrupted the siblings’ quarrel quickly.

"What is it? I’ll have one," Alice’s attention was diverted instantly.

"How much is it?" Jack asked the most crucial question.

"It’s expensive, but very delicious," Chen Ze replied swiftly, the price of Iceberg Fresh Mountain couldn’t be lowered due to the cost of ingredients.

"You get what you pay for—I understand that concept. I’ll take one as well," Jack nodded and then placed his order.

Chen Ze returned to the kitchen with an odd expression on his face, and after much deliberation, he finally grasped the meaning of Jack’s earlier words.

"Means ’you get what you pay for’, right?" Chen Ze felt a bit helpless; these siblings really were something.

Chen Ze took out the Ice Fish. They were almost out of stock, but he wasn’t worried—as Hastur would handle this problem, all Chen Ze had to do was wait for the delivery.

However, this time, Chen Ze didn’t start by chopping sashimi with a clatter as usual; he carefully observed the muscle grain of the Ice Fish instead.

Liu Maoxing had told him about the shortcomings of Iceberg Fresh Mountain, and Chen Ze was diligently correcting some of his basic mistakes as he consulted his notebook.

"As for the angle of the knife... I should cut from here, right?" Chen Ze hesitated for a moment before making the cut.

"Huh? It does seem a lot smoother indeed," Chen Ze was surprised. Although the ice knife was still sharp for cutting fish, this time it went through even more smoothly.

Soon enough, Chen Ze finished preparing two servings of Iceberg Fresh Mountain and called for Betty to help carry them out.

"This is... sashimi?" Alice looked surprised at the dish before her. She had imagined many kinds of fish dishes, but the idea of sashimi had never occurred to her.

"Let me try," Jack picked up a pair of chopsticks, grabbed a slice of sashimi, dipped it in the sauce, and ate it.

Then Jack went silent for a moment, and suddenly he chanted a string of spells, creating a magical barrier around himself.

Seeing Jack’s actions, Alice quickly grabbed a piece herself and upon tasting it, she understood.

"What are you afraid of?" Alice asked darkly, looking at her brother.

"Hehe," Jack chuckled, then continued to eat his sashimi.

Alice took a deep breath and then also picked up the chopsticks, starting to eat the sashimi rapidly.

The corners of Chen Ze’s mouth twitched; they truly were a strange pair of siblings.
