Chapter 252: Chapter 119: The Cafeteria Auntie Has Been Eliminated

Wei Shan’s kick had both power and technique, and it was hard to say that he didn’t mix in a bit of personal motive while pretending not to see.

His shoe, after all, already had tomato sauce on it from stepping on the apron-wearing Pocket Chef. So, since he was going to throw it away after leaving the Cafeteria anyway, he might as well make the most of it and give the tomato a good trample.

Under the forceful technique of his kick, the spray of tomato juice managed to avoid everything but the sole of his shoe.

By the time he walked away with his plate, the surrounding non-human classmates, who stared blankly but with hungry and greedy eyes, could no longer restrain themselves and rushed at the Pocket Chef’s splattered tomato pieces.

When no tomato was in sight, they turned their attention to the Pocket Chef’s face, which was covered in tomato juice, and pounced over as he looked on in bewilderment and panic...

On the other side, Lin Yi glanced at his watch after setting down his plate.

11:18.

"11:18 already, not bad, didn’t waste much time," Lin Yi muttered and then looked back to see Wei Liang and Wei Shan coming over with their plates, one after the other.

As Lin Yi checked the time on his watch, Li Huiyuan’s eyes displayed a strong sense of restraint, then she glanced at the clock on the wall of the Student Cafeteria and found the time Lin Yi gave was accurate.

"Let’s eat first. Before eating, check the food to make sure there isn’t anything with Tomato Element," Lin Yi told her, "Also, don’t overthink anything, whatever you have to say, we can talk after leaving the Cafeteria."

"Okay...got it."

"And remember to finish the milk."

As Li Huiyuan was about to take a bite, she choked and shot an angry look at Lin Yi: "Drinking milk is useless, I’ve already tried it!"

Lin Yi leaned back slightly, his expression odd: "I mean... remember the Clean Plate initiative to avoid trouble at the dish return station."

Li Huiyuan wasn’t dumb and immediately realized the related rules of the Cafeteria’s regulations. Her face turned from green to red because she misunderstood Lin Yi’s comment and hastily bowed her head to eat: "I get it, I get it!"

Lin Yi’s gaze then drifted downwards to Wei Shan’s shoe.

"Wei Sang, you...?"

"Intentionally not so careful," Wei Shan cut in, preempting Lin Yi’s question and offering a perfect sidestep that went straight to the answer.

"Uh..."

"I’ll sit at another table. If any dirty thing dares to lick the shoe, I’ll let it taste some foot power," Wei Shan said as he took his seat away from Lin Yi’s table, his large frame occupying two seats.

"Are you sure it’s not the power of foot odor that’s stronger?" Wei Liang couldn’t help but comment.

"?" Wei Shan glanced over, "Do you think you’re funny? I’ll put my shoes by your bed when you sleep tonight."

Wei Liang’s expression changed dramatically, and he quickly bowed his head, remaining silent.

Lin Yi burst out laughing: "Got you there, didn’t it?"

"Sigh, I really overstepped, overstepped..." Wei Liang didn’t talk back, but instead started to inspect his food and ate quietly.

At this moment, Tian Bufan sat down with his plate.

Lin Yi exclaimed in surprise, "That was quick?"

"Yeah." Tian Bufan nodded, started to check his food, "The situation was unexpected."

Lin Yi glanced at his plate: "Is everything back to normal again?"

"All I can say is that Window Number 3 is back to normal," Tian Bufan replied.

"What do you mean?"

"I didn’t see ’Chef-0391’, and the Cafeteria Auntie at Window Number 3 has been replaced."

"Ah?"

"I suspect she’s been removed," Tian Bufan said.

"Did you check Window Number 1?"

"After getting my meal, I took a detour to check it out."

"And?"

"’Chef-0154’ is still working, and he’s wearing the normal blue apron and a badge on his chest."

"What the heck?"

"Stop worrying about ’Chef-0154’ for now. This afternoon, let me ponder it a bit more... As for ’Chef-0391,’ I suspect she’s been removed."

Lin Yi’s expression grew solemn.

"Don’t rush, this is just a guess. Of course, I’ve also speculated about how ’removed’ was carried out, but let’s not talk about that now, let’s eat first."

After checking their food carefully, the group began to eat normally, finishing their meal in less than five minutes.

Lin Yi looked at Wei Shan and noticed his table was surrounded by non-human classmates, who had a signature look—when they clustered together, they resembled tombstones planted there.

The memory of being surrounded by non-human classmates twice flashed through his mind, and he instinctively put himself in Wei Shan’s place. This made things even worse, as the feeling of being encircled was like being in a claustrophobic and oppressive space, which grew more constricting as the non-humans closed in.

"Old Lin, let’s go after we finish eating." Just as Lin Yi felt increasingly oppressed and uncomfortable, Tian Bufan patted his shoulder.

Lin Yi suddenly snapped back to reality, letting go of his grip, and his metal chopsticks clinked as they fell into the plate.

Tian Bufan subtly glanced at Lin Yi’s chopsticks in the plate, noticing they seemed slightly twisted...

"Wei Sang, we’re done eating! Are you coming or not?" Wei Shan was surrounded by non-human classmates, and Lin Yi couldn’t see his condition, so he had to shout to ask.

"Let’s go!" Wei Shan’s voice came from within the crowd, then the non-human classmates in the front were violently kicked away, opening up a huge gap in the circle.
