Chapter 48: If you’re willing, this head is yours now
"How did you become the manager?" The Head-carrying ghost was stunned.
More than twenty ghosts behind him were also stunned.
What happened to being starving?
What happened to the endless torture?
What happened to missing limbs?
And now you’ve actually worked your way up to leadership!
"Brother, didn’t you just arrive yesterday? How did you become the manager so soon?" The Electrocuted ghost said incredulously, and the ghosts behind him nodded in agreement.
They also wanted to know what a Chosen One, who was supposed to be tortured, had experienced.
He had turned into a restaurant manager in just one day!
"It’s just an assistant manager position, and to be honest, I have you all to thank for it!" Alexander quickly explained:
"I was originally just an excellent employee, but when the manager heard that you were coming, he deserted his post and ran away, promoting me to assistant manager in the process."
"So that’s what happened!" The Electrocuted ghost said somewhat awkwardly: "We ghosts do have a bit of a bad reputation, but that doesn’t matter! We were broke before! Now that we’re all doing well, we won’t be like we were before!"
The Head-carrying ghost reached out and grabbed the Electrocuted ghost, raised her hand to her hair, turned her face to Alexander, and said seriously:
"They knew we were coming and arranged for you to fill the position? They’re not taking us from the Fierce Ghost Apartment seriously! Where’s that bastard? I’m going to twist his head off!"
"What? He dares to frame our brother?"
"Darn it! Where’s the knife, the one I used to commit suicide, the large dragon patterned cleaver!"
...
"Don’t be impulsive! Absolutely do not be impulsive!"
Alexander quickly stopped them.
Although he also wanted to kill the manager.
But they couldn’t do it openly! Otherwise, it would become a provocation.
Alexander didn’t believe that a ghost lord who could run a restaurant like this would be a simple character.
"Since our brother doesn’t want us to interfere, he must have his concerns. Let’s all find a place to sit first!" The Drowned Ghost said, patting Alexander on the shoulder:
"Don’t worry, Su Rong just broke through and is stabilizing her realm. We’ll be here all day today, watching to see who dares to mess with you! Tomorrow, the Skin Shedding Ghost and the Burned Ghost will also come. With us here, we guarantee you’ll have a comfortable time in this instance."
After speaking, the Drowned Ghost turned to a table nearby and said to a customer who had just been served not long ago: "Are you finished eating?"
"I...I can’t possibly not be finished! I just finished!" The customer, whose neck had a terrifying bloody cut, changed his answer immediately under the Drowned Ghost’s stern gaze.
"Are you full?" The Drowned Ghost continued to ask.
"I’m... I’m full!"
Bang!
The Drowned Ghost slapped the table and harshly shouted, "If you’re full, why are you still here? Waiting for us to pay your bill?"
He must be joking. If he lets the ghosts from the Fierce Ghost Apartment pay his bill, he probably thinks dying once isn’t enough!
The others also found seats and sat down, and as for the original customers?
Only a fool would dare to stay!
Su Rong broke through?
Despite the misbehavior of these guys, Alexander was thrilled and somewhat moved.
He just wanted to build good relationships, but he didn’t expect the Drowned Ghost and the Head-carrying ghost to be so indulgent with him.
"Alexander, come here!"
Just as the ghosts sat down, the Head-carrying Ghost placed the head in her hand on the table and called Alexander over.
Alexander walked over, hesitated for a while, but finally turned to the head on the table:
"Sister, what would you like to eat?"
"Eating is not urgent!" The Head-carrying Ghost picked up the head and shook it, then put it back on the table and continued:
"I’m going to introduce you to a new friend. One of the Five Great Evils on our first floor, Heart Eater! She’s a little girl!"
Alexander followed the gaze of the Head-carrying Ghost and looked over.
The first thing he saw were a pair of slender, white, long legs.
These legs were about 1.2 meters long and were directly in his line of sight. Like two delicate porcelain columns, the skin was fair, the lines beautiful, with a uniquely feminine curve exuding an indescribable allure!
Looking up, the girl had a loli face, a light blue schoolgirl uniform with a short skirt, and was wearing white lace gloves on her right hand. Her hair was adorned with a white cotton lace bow.
In short, she was a very beautiful ghost girl!
"Do you think I’m pretty?" The girl saw Alexander looking at her, confidently stood up, and turned in a circle.
"Very beautiful, the clothes suit you very well!" At this moment, all Alexander could do was compliment.
The girl, Heart Eater, seemed very happy to receive Alexander’s praise. With a sweet smile on her face, she directly hugged Alexander’s arm. Her soft chest pressed against Alexander’s chest as she sweetly said:
"I knew brother would like it! I heard brother can increase instance earnings? Can you give your sister some pointers too?"
"Of course!" Alexander’s mind was filled with the sensation of being hit by a fitness ball, and he nodded without thinking.
"That’s great!" Heart Eater happily jumped up, exclaiming: "Brother is so nice! But will sister Su Rong be jealous if brother does this? If so, let’s forget it, your sister will feel bad for you!"
At the words "brother," Alexander inexplicably shuddered.
If not for the high goodwill score of fifty points from this girl, he would have been frightened away.
Immediately, he waved his hands and said, "No, it’s fine, I’m just teaching you how to earn ghost coins!"
"Of course!" Heart Eater replied, then looked at Alexander with a puzzled face and tilted her head: "Does brother want to teach something else?"
Chuckle!
A burst of laughter came out, and the Head-carrying Ghost said irritably, "Alright, Heart Eater, stop teasing Alexander!"
"Boring!" Heart Eater pouted, stretching out her hand with the white lace glove towards Alexander and said, "Let’s get to know each other again! Hi, I’m Heart Eater!"
"Hello! I’m Alexander!"
Alexander quickly reached out and shook her hand. For some reason, the image of Isabella suddenly surfaced in his mind.
"Ha... are you dumbstruck by a beautiful girl? You’re really pathetic!"
The Head-carrying Ghost jokingly said from the side.
"No! I was just surprised to find someone in the apartment whose beauty is comparable to sister Head-carrying Ghost’s," said Alexander. For him, social etiquette had become instinctive, something that comes naturally.
Despite the fact that the image of the Head-carrying Ghost holding her own head was somewhat frightening, she was quite beautiful, with an impressive figure. Although saying that the looks of the Head-carrying Ghost, Heart Eater, and Su Rong are on par with each other was somewhat exaggerated, their looks are indeed above average.
Even though it was exaggerated, who doesn’t like to hear compliments?
The Head-carrying Ghost was clearly pleased to hear this. In a rare gesture, she put her head back onto her neck, walked up to Alexander, lightly hooked his chin with her finger, and said with a smile, "So, are you interested in your sister as well?"
Knowing she was joking, Alexander naturally responded, "Who wouldn’t be moved by such a great beauty like sister? Everyone, isn’t that right?"
As the Head-carrying Ghost was after all the wife of the Skin-peeling Ghost, and given the last sentence, everyone knew it was just a joke.
"Of course!"
"Sister Head-carrying Ghost is the most beautiful!"
"In fact, I have long wanted to take her home! I was just afraid of retaliation!"
...
Suddenly, a group of ghosts began to jeer.
"Shut your dirty mouths!"
The Head-carrying Ghost turned her head to yell at them, but she turned too quickly, and her head rolled off with a thump.
Alexander quickly caught it and handed it over, saying, "Sister Head-carrying Ghost, your head!"
"No, if you’re willing, this head is yours now!"
"???"
Alexander was a bit confused. The Head-carrying Ghost grabbed her head, placed it next to Alexander’s ear and whispered:
"If you like it, sister can give this head to you! You can take it home and enjoy, just leave the body to the Skin-peeling Ghost, he won’t mind!"
