Chapter 99: Sarah

"Huh, it's you!"

When Sarah saw Han Feng behind the counter, a flicker of surprise crossed her eyes.

She had a very strong impression of this man.

It was he who told her about dishes that glow, and dishes that make clothes burst apart.

So he was actually the owner of this manga shop!!

"Welcome, Young Lady Sarah, would you like to read some manga?"

"One hundred thousand Mora per time, one book per day."

Seeing a familiar face, Han Feng smiled and greeted her.

"Can you really get rewards from this shop?"

Walking up to the counter, Sarah asked cautiously yet hopefully.

She was just an employee,

one hundred thousand Mora for one manga was beyond luxurious for her.

It was pure waste of money.

So she had to think carefully.

"Yes."

Han Feng nodded and continued.

"But the reward is random—it could be an ordinary item, a skill, or even great power; it all depends on your luck."

"So it's based on luck?"

Sarah now understood.

The telescope and teacup the three people got before must have been ordinary items, then?

There was some risk involved.

But it was worth trying once.

After deliberating for a while, Sarah finally made her decision and pulled out one hundred thousand Mora.

If she got an ordinary item, she would go back and work hard to earn the money back.

Group: 5①9①2424③

But if she got a good reward…

Sarah's eyes were filled with anticipation.

"The manga are over there on the shelf."

After taking the money, Han Feng pointed to the location.

"Alright, thank you, Boss!"

Sarah excitedly walked over to the shelf.

"One Piece—East Blue Arc, Digimon Adventure Part 1…"

Sarah was deciding which one to pick when she flipped to the last one,

its cover showed a boy holding a dish in his left hand and a knife in his right.

"Little Chef?"

Sarah whispered the title.

"This is a manga about cuisine—it contains the glowing dishes I told you about before."

Seeing Sarah pick up Little Chef, Han Feng reminded her.

He still very much hoped she would draw one of its abilities.

That way, he'd also get a chance to taste those glowing dishes.

"A cuisine manga? It has glowing dishes?"

Sarah's eyes lit up.

She'd hit the jackpot!

She'd come to the right place!

What she wanted most was a culinary ability.

And now, the opportunity was right before her!

Thinking of this, Sarah's eagerness surged.

She took the manga over to the side and began reading.

The opening plot of Little Chef was simple.

Liu Mao Xing and his sister Jin Ling ran the restaurant "Juxialou" after their mother's death.

Then they encountered Shao An, their mother's disciple, who came to provoke them and tried to seize the restaurant.

Later, at the suggestion of a powerful figure, Liu Mao Xing and Shao An competed against each other.

In the end, Liu Mao Xing won and earned the powerful figure's recognition.

It was a common web novel trope.

But Sarah had never seen anything like this before—she was instantly drawn into the manga.

"Liu Mao Xing is so pitiful—after his mother's death, he still has to support the restaurant with his sister."

"Shao An is truly evil—he wants to steal someone else's property! So despicable."

"Wow, is this the legendary Six-in-One Mapo Tofu? It looks so delicious!"

Looking at the Mapo Tofu in the manga, which looked irresistibly appetizing, Sarah couldn't help swallowing.

But she still held back her hunger and kept reading.

At this moment,

a few more figures walked into the comic shop.

It was Yingmei and the others.

"Hehe, boss, I'm here to read comics again!"

Little Paimon was so excited the moment she stepped inside.

After waiting so long, she could finally read comics.
