Chapter 899

However, since Lin Ye said it was donkey meat, Tachibana Rui temporarily accepted this explanation.

She picked up another piece, dipped it in sauce, and put it in her mouth.

"Next time, I'll bring my sister to eat at this restaurant too."

Thinking this, Tachibana Rui took out her phone and took a photo of the meat.

'Click...'

Photo taken.

The meat looked no different from regular beef, but the texture was indeed good.

Tachibana Rui was very willing to share the joy of good food with her sister, Haruno.

Lin Ye's attention was now focused more on the surroundings, especially the few waiters.

Up until now, the 'Eerie Game' had not notified him of any real-world missions, indicating that he hadn't triggered the conditions for an Eerie mission yet.

In other words, there was still a chance to leave this place.

Lin Ye wasn't worried about his own safety; what he cared about was that once the mission was triggered and the restaurant entered Eerie mode, it would form an independent space, and Tachibana Rui would inevitably face the Eerie event head-on.

His current thought was for the girl to avoid contact with the Eerie if possible.

"Tachibana-tongxue,"

"Lin-tongxue, you can speak directly if there's something on your mind,"

The blue-haired girl put down her chopsticks and parted her red lips again, "The reason I invited you this time is actually..."

"Let's talk about that later,"

Lin Ye interrupted what Tachibana Rui was about to say, leaving the girl stunned.

From the girl's perspective, shouldn't this be exactly what Lin Ye wanted to know most?

Why, now that she was about to take the initiative to tell him, did Lin Ye refuse?

Why was this?

"Then what are you..."

"Let's leave this place first,"

Lin Ye lowered his voice.

"Mm?"

Tachibana Rui blinked, confused.

Why leave first?

"Wh-why... can't we finish eating first?"

Following Lin Ye's signal, she spoke in a very low voice, only loud enough for the two of them to hear.

Tachibana Rui couldn't understand why they had to leave first.

"You leave first,"

"..."

I leave first?

Tachibana Rui was perplexed.

But under Lin Ye's request, Tachibana Rui nodded.

She stood up and walked toward the restaurant's entrance door.

Lin Ye's gaze fell on those few waiters.

'Tap, tap, tap...'

Tachibana Rui's footsteps echoed in the restaurant; they were very light, but exceptionally clear.

Even Tachibana Rui herself instinctively sensed something unusual and couldn't help but speed up her pace, even though she was still very confused as to why Lin Ye wanted her to do this.

He let her go first, but Lin Ye remained in his original position, not even showing an inclination to stand up.

Tachibana Rui glanced at Lin Ye behind her from the corner of her eye.

Lin Ye's expression was calm, signaling her with his eyes to continue leaving.

She pursed her lips and continued walking.

The next second,

The moment the girl approached within five meters of the restaurant's entrance door,

A 'whoosh...' sound suddenly rang out.

Tachibana Rui was startled, and a waiter in uniform immediately appeared before her.

The sudden scene scared her into taking two steps back; her face changed color, and her heart pounded violently.

"Guest, may I ask where you are going?"

The waiter wore a faint smile, looking approachable and pleasant,

But Tachibana Rui read a faint coldness in it that penetrated the heart and made one panic.

"I left something outside, I'm leaving to get it and then coming back. My friend is here,"

She pointed at Lin Ye to show that she wasn't trying to dine and dash.

Tachibana Rui was also afraid of being seen as a woman of bad character trying to skip the bill.

"Guest, you cannot leave the restaurant before the meal is finished. Please understand."

Saying this, the waiter raised his hand to signal Tachibana Rui to return to her seat.

He still maintained his manners, but his tone clearly carried a hint of an order.

This made Tachibana Rui subconsciously cast a look of help toward Lin Ye.

Lin Ye realized that it wasn't going to be that easy to get Tachibana Rui to leave this dangerous place naturally.

He stood up and walked toward Tachibana Rui, arriving at the girl's side.

"My friend is feeling unwell and wants to leave here first,"

Lin Ye spoke up as well.

In this situation, it was impossible for the two of them to leave, not to mention he had no intention of leaving.

This place was a representation of experience and game points.

He still wanted to continue leveling up!

"Sorry, guest, please return to the table and continue your meal. Ingredients must not be wasted."

The waiter's voice became heavier, and his attitude became more resolute and tough.

And the other few waiters also subtly turned and approached.

The few of them formed an invisible, powerful aura that couldn't be seen but could be felt.

An ordinary person would have been intimidated long ago.

At the very least, Tachibana Rui was already panicking and subconsciously moved closer to Lin Ye; only by Lin Ye's side could she feel a sense of security.

Her hand had already instinctively grabbed the corner of Lin Ye's clothes.

Lin Ye met the waiter's gaze and spoke slowly, "Please let my friend leave first! I will finish the remaining ingredients alone. Please rest assured."

While saying this,

Lin Ye used his Hypnosis superpower.

An invisible force acted upon the waiter.

His clear expression suddenly softened and became confused, "Gu... est, can... cannot..."

It was completely as if he had glitched, forming a logical conflict.

"Please..."

He reached out to see her off.

The Hypnosis superpower had taken effect once again.

For these waiters suspected to be Eerie, Hypnosis could still take effect.

"Go first,"

But Tachibana Rui hadn't even walked for a second before three waiters appeared in front of her.

This speed terrified Tachibana Rui even more.

No matter how fast they ran, it was impossible for them to run from at least ten meters away to in front of her in such a short time!

Tachibana Rui had already started guessing, thinking of some urban legends circulating among students.

Could this be one of those strange and dangerous Eerie places?

She suddenly realized why Lin Ye had asked her to leave first; it was because Lin Ye had already sensed the danger and wanted her to leave a step ahead. ===== CHAPTER 900 =====
