Chapter 336: Is the cave also about human relationships and worldly affairs?When Ranran was about to follow Shen Dinghai into the men's restroom, she was unsurprisingly stopped by the waiter.
"Girls can't go into the men's restroom."
Yangguang didn't want to waste time arguing with him. Now that all four members of the team had arrived, they would definitely get together to discuss what to do next.
Helping Dingjunshan heal his wounds while chatting is the best arrangement. How could a monster like him object?
"We don't want to cause any trouble, so leave us alone."
The waiter inexplicably sensed the hostility from Yangguang and took a step back unconsciously, "Sir, the coffee shop has its own rules."
Yangguang sneered and hugged Ranran, "She is so young, what does she know? She also said that girls cannot go into the men's restroom, which makes it seem like boys rarely go into the women's restroom!"
"Are there not enough boys entering?!"
The waiter couldn't think of anything to refute for a moment. He looked at Yang Guang for a while and chose to pull the barista over the counter.
Ran Ran smiled and greeted the barista, "Hello, we meet again~" She pushed out the sunshine, "Didn't I tell you before that I had an appointment with a friend?"
"I found my friends!"
The barista didn't react much to this, at least not as enthusiastically as Ranran.
Shen Dinghai was a little skeptical and lowered his voice, "Will it work if I talk to him?"
Ran Ran responded quietly: "Whether it works or not depends on whether Kong Dong has inherited our 'bad habits'."
Shen Dinghai was still wondering what this bad habit was, when he saw Ranran walk up to the barista and waved, motioning him to bend down.
The barista was startled, but actually did as he was told. Ran Ran then started to promote coffee in his ear, "Brother, you don't know how much my friends love coffee."
She also deliberately lowered her voice, neither too loud nor too soft, enough for Shen Dinghai and the others to hear clearly, but not loud enough for more people to hear, as if she was telling some secret.
"They love to drink even the worst coffee! They can drink five cups in one go, not to mention coffee made by a master coffee blender like you~"
Ran Ran blinked at the barista, "I've seen the coffee you make, it's clearly a work of art!"
"My friends' appetite for art can be doubled! Each of them can drink ten cups! It's guaranteed!"
The barista had a blank expression at first, but then gradually a smile appeared on his face, the same smile as Ranran's, which could only be understood but not expressed in words.
Ran Ran reached out and patted the barista on the shoulder. "Master, you understand, our team is full of talented people. You can use one person as ten people!"
The barista smiled and nodded at Ran Ran, "Very good, very good."
Ranran breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Fortunately, the Kongdong imitated the life of normal people in great detail and inherited all the social practices.
Even if a barista has ill intentions, he has to play his role well on the surface just like Ranran and the others.
These monsters in human skin are different from the tentacle monsters. Their malicious intent will only appear when explorers who enter the horror cave violate taboos.
Ran Ran blinked at the barista again, "Now you understand, I just want to help my friend clean up. Look at him, he's so dirty."
The barista winked back and said, "I understand, just go in." Then he left with the gloomy waiter.
Ran Ran breathed a sigh of relief, "Get ready, we will definitely be chased by the barista when we leave the cafe."
"Ah?" Shen Dinghai was stunned. "Cousin, didn't you start talking to him? You two have reached a tacit understanding, and your relationship seems pretty good."
"If we were outside, we might actually talk to each other." Ran Ran smiled bitterly, "But this is in the Horror Cave."
"The barista's intelligence is higher than those customers sitting in the lobby, but it is still different from the special NPCs. In the final analysis, they are ordinary NPCs." "Don't forget that these ordinary NPCs have only one thought in their minds - to kill us."
"Try to catch every mistake we make and kill us when you get the chance."
Ranran watched the waiter gradually walk away. She could see his unhappiness just from his back, and she couldn't help but mutter.
"The monsters in the horror cave won't care about killing people..."
Shen Dinghai was horrified when he heard this, "What kind of statement is this?"
"It's just my feeling." Ran Ran smiled slightly, "Their purpose is to find our mistakes and take advantage of the opportunity to attack."
"That waiter was obviously trying to use the fact that I couldn't enter the men's restroom to get angry, but Yangguang wasn't so easy to deal with, so he asked the barista to come over."
"After talking to me, the barista has changed the reason for the attack."
Yangguang was also confused, "What's the reason?"
Ran Ran smiled helplessly, "Ten cups of coffee per person is not a joke, you really have to drink it. If you can't drink it, the barista will definitely get angry."
Shen Dinghai suddenly realized, "What this means is that when the barista was discussing with you, his cousin, he didn't think that we could help him improve his performance, but that we couldn't drink so much so that he could take the opportunity to kill us?!"
Ran Ran nodded, "That's about it."
"In short, we should think more about the behavior of the monsters in the cave. They always have ulterior motives and want us to trigger the taboo so that they can take action."
"The waiter looked very grumpy when he left just now. It might be because the barista changed the reason for the outburst without authorization."
Shen Dinghai had a bitter face. "I didn't think that much. I thought the outside world's ways would really work here! I was so stupid..."
Ran Ran comforted him, "Innocent, you are innocent."
In any case, her few words finally delayed the trouble that was about to happen in the cafe.
The group of four were able to enter the restroom smoothly. The decoration of the cafe was exquisite and elegant, and even the restroom was spotlessly clean. Shen Dinghai breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't want Ranran to leave a very bad impression the first time he entered the men's restroom in his life, so he couldn't help but slap himself thinking of this.
What a bullshit idea! Will my cousin ever go to the men's restroom again? It's just a matter of circumstances now!
There was a crisp sound, but no one noticed it except Ranran. Yangguang had already concentrated and started to heal Dingjunshan's injuries.
Shen Dinghai walked to the door with a depressed look on his face and stood guard to prevent any blind guests from barging in and seeing things they shouldn't see.
This was the second time he had witnessed the power of sunlight. It was really very similar to Ranran's spiritual light, and it emitted a bright white light when used.
But the sunlight is still faint, without the sense of power that Ranran brings.
Ran Ran looked thoughtful.
Soon Yangguang completed the stage that required full concentration. After that, he only needed to continue to output power, so he could devote his mind to communicating with others.
"Let's go back to the question you were wondering about outside - the Awakener Plan."
Ranran already had a rough guess in her mind, but she still needed Yangguang's words to confirm it.
How did people like Yangguang and Dingjunshan, who had never experienced previous level tasks, gain abilities out of thin air?
