The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1516 "Guan Shi Lu"

The figure in the video was engulfed in flames in an instant.

However, the next moment, the figure walked out safely, not even a little embarrassed, not to mention injured.

"Flame resistance talent?"

"No, that's not right!"

"Even if you have the flame resistance talent, you can't be so leisurely. That's..."

"The flames are friendly!"

Edberg stood up and took a deep breath. The disbelief in his eyes was completely replaced by surprise.

As the manager of the 'cafeteria', Edberg is very aware of the importance of the flame affinity talent to a chef.

"2567?"

Edberg recalled everything about this new student in his heart, and then raised his evaluation of the other person to another level.

However, this does not mean that Edberg has given up on the next test.

So, when Kieran pushed the door open, what he saw was a tall, chimpanzee-like middle-aged man holding a pipe in his mouth, tilting his head, squinting his eyes, and looking at himself up and down.

The opponent's gaze was very sharp and oppressive.

For ordinary people, let alone looking at each other, even if they are stared at by the other person, they will feel unnatural.

And Kieran?

Not only did he look at each other calmly, but he was also distractedly looking at the office.

This is a seemingly ordinary office.

It has all the office facilities that an office should have, but the small cubicles on the side are not found in ordinary offices.

Kieran's eyes lit up when he smelled the fragrance coming from the small cubicle.

Without opening the door to confirm, Kieran was sure that it was the 'transit station' from the underground kitchen to the above-ground restaurant.

This is also his purpose.

Boom, boom.

Edberg knocked on the table hard.

"Why did you come to the 'canteen'?"

"With the strength and talent you have shown, you can definitely enter a better research laboratory."

"Or do you think like those idiots that there is some secret in the 'canteen'?"

Edberg asked.

The tone was very unfriendly, and the voice was even colder.

But Qin Ran was not moved at all.

He just pointed to the cubicle on the side.

“I want to be a ‘food tester’.”

Qin Ran said this.

"Taster?"

Edberg was stunned.

It's not that there are no food testers in the 'canteen', but he never thought that Qin Ran wanted to be a food tester in the 'canteen'.

In his opinion, even if Kieran entered the 'canteen' sincerely, he should have heard some nonsense and secret rumors.

With those rumored 'assistants', Kieran would definitely join the ranks of 'kitchen workers' like the guys before him. Then, he would work hard for a few months, or even the whole semester, and then leave angrily without achieving anything. That's right.

"Are you sure you want to be a 'dish tester'?"

Edberg confirmed again.

"Um."

Qin Ran nodded.

Edberg looked at Kieran's eyes and expression, paused for a moment, and said: "Being a 'food tester' in the cafeteria is not like a research laboratory, which requires a sharp tongue, but this position requires a stomach that is beyond imagination. Capacity, do you think you can handle it?”

"How about... let's try?"

Kieran smiled.

Very happy kind.

Regarding other aspects, Kieran has always been very cautious and never speaks his mind fully.

But when it comes to eating.

He has unparalleled confidence in himself and 'Gluttony'.

Seeing Kieran's smile, Edberg felt inexplicably uneasy.

However, looking at Qin Ran's figure, Edberg immediately put this uneasiness behind his mind. Although some abilities can speed up the digestion of the stomach, they are still based on the body. Only a strong body can bring about a A stomach with strong digestive power and good absorption.

As for the Kieran in front of him, although he has a straight figure and can be said to be strong, for ordinary people, such a figure is definitely not good enough for Edberg, who has seen some big eaters. .

So, Edberg pointed to the cubicle with his pipe in his mouth.

"Of course I have to try it!"

"This is a test for you!"

"That's where the food is passed around. You don't need to taste it. I want you to eat it freely and show your qualifications to be a 'dish tester'!"

Edberg said loudly.

He watched Qin Ran walk into the food delivery room.

Then, he waited for Qin Ran to return in embarrassment.

To this end, he added some tobacco leaves to his pipe.

He wanted to take a good look at the embarrassed appearance of this ignorant little devil.

However, just when he was about to bend down and take out the tobacco leaves, the communicator rang.

When the communicator was connected, Edberg was stunned by the information coming from it.

""Guan Shi Lu"?"

"you sure?"

Edberg asked.

"Not sure, but something to watch out for."

A voice in the communicator answered.

"Wait for me, I'll be there soon."

As Edberg said this, he stood up. After some operations on his desk, he walked towards the secret door of the office - walking here would help him reach his destination faster.

As for Qin Ran?

Although I couldn't appreciate Qin Ran's embarrassed appearance at the first moment.

But Edberg is convinced he will have another chance to see it in the future.

After all, after the confirmation of the information he entered just now, Kieran is already a member of the 'canteen'.

Above ground restaurant.

The freshmen lined up neatly with their meal tickets and waited quietly.

For them, who came to the 'canteen' for the first time, the unfamiliar environment and everything were so novel. Moreover, they didn't know the speed of serving food in the canteen, so they didn't complain at all.

But the second and third grade students were talking a lot and were even a little dissatisfied.

"what happened?"

"Why is the food being served so slowly today?"

"Usually the food should be served in no more than five minutes, but today it has already been half an hour."

"I've been waiting for forty-five minutes!"

"It's going to get completely dark soon!"

"Am I going to walk at night today?"

"Yelu? Forget it, I don't want to disappear for no reason!"

"But I'm so hungry!"

The discussion became louder and louder. Gradually, when the freshmen who had obtained enough information joined in, the discussion finally turned into a noise.

The noise grew louder and louder.

The dissatisfaction caused by hunger began to spread further.

Fortunately, before the situation got out of hand, the student union members of District E branch showed up under the leadership of Guti.

"Quiet!"

Guti shouted to all the students, and quickly, the students fell silent.

For every student who enters Theoret, they are very clear about not going against the people in the student union unless you don't want to graduate.

However, hunger made them set their sights on Guti.

They need a solution.

"Maintain order!"

Guti, who was watched by thousands of people, was not timid at all. She turned her head and spoke to the student union members who followed her, then strode towards the underground kitchen.

Although he is no longer the head of the student union branch in Area E, his status as a third-year student and member of the student union still allows Guti unimpeded access to the periphery of the underground kitchen - the place where vegetables are washed and cut.

"You want to go inside, I need to ask the chef."

The cafeteria member who led Qin Ran before said this.

"OK."

Guti did not refuse the reasonable request.

However, the wait was far longer than Guti imagined.

five minutes.

ten minutes.

fifteen minutes.

After a full twenty minutes, Guti frowned.

This was not the first time she had entered the underground kitchen. She knew the structure of the underground kitchen very well. Although it was large, it would never take that long to get to Edberg's office from here. If your legs and feet were fast enough, five minutes would be enough. Now……

Guti, who thought of something, didn't hesitate and pushed away the kitchen.

A burning sensation that was much higher than what she remembered hit her face, causing Guti to have to adjust her breathing again. Then, she saw the unconscious messenger.

It wasn't an attack.

But I fainted from the heat.

Gudi picked up the other person and found the culprit almost immediately: the wok flying up and down in the flames, and the steamer constantly puffing out steam.

The flames were twice as big as before.

It's twice as fast as before.

These are important reasons for raising the temperature in the kitchen.

Then, Guti saw one piece of food being delivered to the serving room.

And this made Guti even more confused.

Because, under her gaze, nearly sixty pieces of food were delivered in one minute, and the speed was still increasing.

but……

There was no message to clear the alarm in her communicator.

what happened?

The doubts in his heart made Guti send the unconscious messenger outside the kitchen, then stepped into the kitchen again, and walked directly towards Edberg's office.

Boom, boom, boom.

"Chef, I'm Guti."

After knocking on the door, Guti said politely.

But there was no answer.

Guti's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled.

Boom, boom, boom.

"Chef, I'm Guti."

Guti repeated again, but still no one answered.

After getting no answer twice, Guti didn't hesitate anymore and immediately dialed the pager, but no one answered.

Instead, Shelley's call rang.

"Gu, Gudi, hurry up."

"It's going to be dark soon, and everyone's mood is very unstable."

"If it's not resolved, I'm worried about big trouble."

The clerk said urgently.

And this made Guti make a decision.

Guti has never been an indecisive person, otherwise she would not have become the student union branch director of District E as a woman.

boom!

There was a muffled sound, and the closed office door separated from the door frame.

Guti walked into the office, and after a quick glance, he focused on the food delivery room.

Not only was the empty office unworthy of her attention, but also the sound of chewing in the kitchen was too noticeable.

The door to the food delivery room was not locked, and Guti easily pushed the door open.

Then, she saw someone she never expected.

"2567... branch chief."

After subconsciously exclaiming his name, Guti added his position when he reacted.

It's not a requirement, it's a habit.

Just like the subsequent inquiry.

"Why are you here?"

Guti looked at Qin Ran who was sitting there, using both hands together to hold up an arm that could not tell whether it was a real or fake phantom, and stuffing all the food into his mouth. He was completely stunned.

The speed was so fast that she was dizzy. Almost in a breath, several dishes disappeared.

But what surprised Guti the most was that Kieran's body didn't change at all after swallowing so quickly, it was still the same as in memory.

Looking at the plates and plates that had already blocked the washing sink and almost filled the entire food delivery room, Guti's eyes widened involuntarily.

Where did the food go?

Doubts appeared in Guti's mind unconsciously.

Then, she asked unconsciously.

"These, these are you..."

Before he finished asking, Guti stopped.

There was no one else here, no one else at all except Kieran.

Although it seems impossible, the fact is that it is incredible.

"Please stop."

"If you continue like this, there will be a riot in the cafeteria."

Guti did not forget his responsibilities, but unfortunately, Kieran was not moved at all.

"This is Edberg's test for me!"

"He doesn't need me to just taste it, but he wants me to eat it freely. I must show that I can become a 'dish tester'!"

Qin Ran said plausibly.

test?

Guti was stunned.

Immediately, she thought of a secret rumor she had heard. The rumor said that there was an extremely powerful but very special cooking skill hidden in the 'canteen' in Area E of Teorite. Only those who experienced the 'canteen' Only those who have gone through many trials can obtain it.

However, according to rumors, that cooking skill should be in the kitchen.

what is going on?

Questions appeared unconsciously, but Guti's reaction was not slow. She picked up the communicator.

"Shelley told everyone to go find Chef Edberg and tell him what happened here!"

Guti did not stop Kieran anymore.

The identities of both parties have already been decided, and her efforts to stop them have almost no effect.

What's more, Kieran's answer just now told her that finding Edberg was the best way to solve this matter.

"Okay, Guti."

The reply from the communicator made Guti slightly relieved.

However, seeing Qin Ran eating faster and faster, Gu Di, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, immediately became worried again.

Because, Qin Ran was eating faster and faster.

It looked like he was about to swallow the plate.

Looking at Qin Ran's appearance, Gudi had some inexplicable thoughts.

2567 It seems that the call between her and Shelley has sped up. Could it be...

Has Chef Edberg been tricked?

impossible!

Chef Edberg is not a person like Senior. Although he seems to be reckless, he has a subtlety and will never be easily deceived.

Guti quickly shook his head and threw this idea out of his mind.

However, deep down in Guti's heart, he felt that he had guessed correctly.

Suddenly, Guti looked at Qin Ran a little differently.

She found that she seemed to have underestimated the new chief.

But immediately, Guti clenched his fist.

"The stronger you are, the more I have to catch up with you!"

Guti's eyes immediately became firm.

Kieran clearly felt this change, but he had no time to pay attention to it.

He knew very well that this was probably the last time he would be able to eat freely in the 'canteen'. When the head chef came back, even if he was not kicked out, it would be difficult for him to step into the dish room.

So……

How can I not eat enough?
