I Open a Restaurant in Honkai

It was strange. Theresa wasn't afraid of horror games with scientific elements, but if they involved ghosts or spirits, she wouldn't even dare to touch them.

Perhaps that was part of the Director's charm.

Theresa processed the information Zhao Bai had provided, couldn't help but press pause, and the jawless, rotting corpse face froze in the center of the screen.

"Are you kidding me?"

She said, "Are you bullying me... trying to fob me off with such a stupid excuse? Believe it or not, I'll dock your pay!"

"I'm not that easily fooled!"

Theresa got angry for the first time in a long while, and Zhao Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

What he said was absolutely true.

Although she was angry, Theresa didn't impose any punishment. She just told him to resolve the issue within three days, or he wouldn't get the counter-espionage funds, and Zhao Bai would have to cover the maid's and security guards' salaries himself.

That absolutely wouldn't do!

Chapter 17: The Quantum Ghost

Lying in bed, Zhao Bai fell into thought.

How to let Theresa know there was a Titan in the warehouse was a very difficult task.

Zhao Bai knew the Director's personality well – timid but tough-talking. Asking her to go to the warehouse and take a look herself was absolutely impossible.

What about letting the Titan come out on its own?

That was too dangerous. It was clearly the product of a quantum experiment, a killer weapon, the legendary Titan Overlord. Without a firepower system, it could tear him apart with just its Titan Overlord Fists. Zhao Bai couldn't imagine that pile of scrap metal as food ingredients at all.

Difficult, more difficult than ever before.

In his endless struggle, Zhao Bai suffered from insomnia for the first time.

Sleep had a huge impact on taste. As a responsible chef, he absolutely could not allow such a decadent lifestyle. Even if he only got a little rest, he had to ensure he got enough sleep.

But this time was different. Zhao Bai couldn't close his eyes until four in the morning when the morning mist began to rise.

In a daze, a red-haired girl appeared before his eyes.

White stockings, glasses, twin tails, mechanical arm.

Too many elements, making it hard not to like her.

The girl had a fierce expression, floating at the top of the ceiling, her body semi-transparent, like a projection, separate from reality and time.

As soon as he saw her, Zhao Bai abandoned the idea of calling Theresa over.

Given the red-haired girl's floating, drifting posture, the Director would definitely mistake her for a ghost and be scared unconscious. Zhao Bai would not only have to deal with the mysterious quantum ghost but also take care of the unconscious and helpless Theresa, which would reduce his combat effectiveness.

"Who are you?"

Zhao Bai asked, but the red-haired girl didn't answer. She just looked Zhao Bai up and down.

The girl spoke, "Your weapon can directly affect quantum weapons, pulling it back into the real world for a short time. All our years of hard research are actually inferior to a weapon a chef casually pulls out?"

Zhao Bai could read anger and disbelief on her face.
