The Demon’s Menu

Through the curtains, the sun shines on Jason's face.

The warmth made Jason wake up quickly from his sleep.

Then……

He felt hungry.

It seems that because of the awakening of the talent [Predator], Jason found that he was not only able to eat more food than before, but also digested it extremely quickly.

According to his previous food intake, he ate so much food yesterday, not to mention feeling hungry, not indigestion is good.

And now?

Goo, goo.

There was a rumbling in the stomach.

Without any hesitation, Jason, driven by hunger, quickly got up, washed, and then pushed out the door.

The kitchen in his room had nothing to eat but water.

Only some of the remaining black pepper was used on [Gerung's Hound].

The police dormitory also does not provide breakfast - yesterday, Jason had already asked Finch, and also, he also asked which breakfast is worth going to.

Greeting the detectives and officers along the way, Jason quickly walked out of the police station and walked straight to the side intersection described by Finch.

Jason could smell the food from a distance.

After turning the corner, he saw the 'Yanan Food Shop' surrounded by many people.

There is a food shop in the name, but it is a mobile vendor.

The boss is a lame middle-aged man with sparse hair and a face with traces of time, but he smiles very kindly.

what do you need?

Fries or chips? Coffee or pea soup? Sandwiches, patties? I've got salted eel, grilled herring!

Of course, you can also opt for better pies and gingerbread, and today's finale: pineapple.

The other party looked at Jason who came over and asked enthusiastically.

Jason first nodded, greeted the other party, and then glanced at the blackboard standing in front of the dining car.

It reads like this-

French fries (potato chips): 1 copper wedge.

Coffee or pea soup: 2 copper wedges.

Sandwich or meatloaf: 3 copper wedges.

Salted eel: 1 copper gram 1 copper corner.

Grilled Herring: 1 cu gram.

Pie (full serving of fruit): 6 cu grams.

Gingerbread: 5 copper grams and 2 copper corners.

Pineapple (quartered): 8 cu grams.

...

As Finch said, it's good and cheap.

According to the choice of ordinary people, most of them will choose sandwiches or meat patties, with a coffee or pea soup, if necessary, add a French fries (potato chips), the total consumption is 1 copper gram and 2 copper horns, for one in Lorde In the city, that's not much for a healthy, working adult man.

However, Jason could see the people gathered in front of the booth, looking at the blackboard with hesitation on their faces, and many people even touching their pockets.

Apparently, even the modest expense was enough to make these men in fairly decent clothes hesitate.

After all, they need to support their families.

There are parents, wives, children, or sisters at home.

Jason didn't have these considerations, but he also had to save money.

Because, he needs to buy some necessary spices for cooking food.

And those spices are quite expensive.

Five patties, two pea soup, and one salted eel.

Jason started to order.

Then, ordered 6 copper grams and handed it to the boss.

Are you here to buy breakfast for the family?

What a thriving family!

You must be the eldest in the family, right? How many younger brothers and sisters are there in the family?

After taking the money, the boss praised and asked with a smile.

Jason didn't explain,

He chose silence.

Moreover, after taking another large bag of food, he turned around and left.

When turning the corner from the intersection, Jason took out a patty, rolled it into a roll, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

The skin is crispy and the meat filling is full of oil and water.

Definitely one of my favorite foods.

Especially with the salty pea soup is quite good, and the onion rings in the soup became Jason's unexpected surprise.

The salted eel had a glutinous feel, and the thorns remained. When the thorns were shaved off, Jason rolled it into the meat patty and put it into his mouth together.

The taste is very good.

Fish and pork, two kinds of meat, with salt, Jason was very happy to eat.

It has been a long time since he had such a hearty breakfast.

In the city that never sleeps?

Always dry bread and water.

Next, according to plan, Jason is going to the spice shop.

As long as he can use spices, Jason definitely doesn't mind adding flavor to his food.

The spice shop is on Kensington Street, and it would take a lot of time to walk there. Jason plans to take the city's public carriage - this can be reimbursed, and he asked Bundy.

Opposite the police station, there is a stagecoach that leads directly to Kensington Street.

Jason stood silently waiting for the stagecoach.

About three or four minutes later, a stagecoach pulled by two horses appeared in Jason's field of vision.

Unlike private carriages, the carriages of the public carriages are much larger and simpler. Getting on the carriage is not from the side of the carriage, but from the back of the carriage. The inside is nailed with wooden boards along the wall of the carriage, which acts as a seat. , of course, there is a similar arrangement on the door at the back of the carriage, although it is a bit of a hindrance, but after all, it can sit one more person, which means an extra penny.

Over time, that is an objective income.

The whole carriage can seat about 6-8 people of normal size.

The fare is calculated according to the station. For example, from the police station to Kensing Street, it takes 1 copper gram and 2 copper corners. The price is not cheap, so it is not the choice for most people to go out.

As for the rich?

These people naturally opt for private carriages.

The carriage slowly pulled aside, but before the driver had truly parked the carriage, a figure pushed open the door, jumped out of the carriage, and ran straight towards the police station.

The place where the other party jumped off the carriage was only more than one meter away from Jason.

Therefore, Jason clearly saw that the other party was a lady with a beautiful face.

However, panic and fear filled this face at this moment.

Jason stared blankly at the other side's back.

Not because of the other person's appearance.

Rather...

Because of the aroma of the food!

On the other side, Jason smelled the faint aroma of food.

That scent is even more attractive than [Submariner].

Gudong.

Jason swallowed, and he immediately changed his plan, ignoring the carriage parked in front of him, and chasing after him.

When Jason stepped into the door of the police station hall, he saw the lady grabbing the arm of a young police officer and shouting loudly:

Where's Chief Bundy?

Where's Chief Bundy?

I want to see him!

The other party's voice was hoarse, and even shouting did not change this, which made the other party seem to be hoarse.

Ma'am, what happened?

Please calm down.

This is the police station, we will keep you safe!

The young policeman reassured the other.

However, it's totally useless.

The other party was still saying, 'I want to see Chief Bundy' over and over again.

This made the young police officer very helpless.

Not to mention that Bundy just fell asleep when it was dawn, and it has been less than two hours now. There is no normal registration, and it is not in line with the case-handling process to tell Bundy at random.

And at this time Jason came over.

The young police officer greeted immediately:

Mr. Jason, good morning.

morning.

After Jason answered, he looked at the lady, restrained his instinct to swallow the saliva quickly secreted in his mouth, and showed an extremely sincere smile:

Ma'am, maybe I can help you.
