"Argh! Murder!!! "
The woman's scream pierced the quiet air, and a commotion suddenly came from outside. Cries of surprise rose and fell one after another.
The carriage was still burning, and the four people lying on the ground outside the restaurant were bleeding profusely, creating a rather gruesome sight.
"Isn't … Isn't that Mamy's? What happened? Did someone really die? "
"I think there was a conflict in the restaurant. Looks like Boss is fine, but who died?"
"Boss is fine? It's good that Boss is fine. If something happens to Boss and he can't cook, I'm going to kill those troublemakers! "
"Isn't that Goodenia and Devoe, those two bastards? I told you they'd get their retribution sooner or later. God is right! "
"They came to cause trouble and were beaten to death. They died for nothing. These fellows kicked an iron plate."
The two consecutive explosions had attracted everyone's attention. They looked at the four people lying in pools of blood outside the restaurant, and began to discuss spiritedly among themselves. Some were curious, some were elated, and some were lamenting.
This was an alternate world, after all. Even though human life was precious in Chaos City, there were still people dying in the city every day. This was something that even the Gray Temple couldn't completely control, but it wasn't to the extent that everyone was screaming like a sissy.
Of course, the Gray Temple naturally wouldn't stand by and do nothing.
In Chaos City, the death of a person was always a big deal. A short and hurried whistle sounded, and a few people wearing the Gray Temple's uniform quickly gathered in the direction of Mamy Restaurant. They all wore grave expressions.
Meg walked into the restaurant, and his expression was still as calm as ever. However, he was gripping his chopsticks so tightly that his knuckles were slightly pale.
Perhaps it was because Meg Alex had killed too many people in the past, so when the chopsticks were plunged into Meg's throat, he wasn't too affected by the fact that it was his first time killing someone. Naturally, even he was a little surprised.
If possible, Meg didn't want to kill anyone. Chaos City was still a very peaceful city. If he killed someone, he would be targeted easily. Given his current situation, it wasn't suitable for him to be too high-profile.
However, the way Gabriel looked at Amy made Meg want to kill him. This was a mad dog with nothing to lose. As long as he was still alive, he could bite anyone at any time.
Therefore, he had to die, and he had to die cleanly.
It was a good thing for the restaurant to show its claws and teeth. Otherwise, it would be too annoying if all kinds of kittens and puppies came to make trouble.
As for Goodenia, Devoe, and the other two, they could only be regarded as domestic dogs. After being beaten twice, they knew the taste of pain and didn't dare to make any noise.
The higher a person stood, the more wealth he accumulated, the more afraid he would be of losing it, and the more he cherished his life. There was no need to worry too much about such a person.
As for killing them all, Meg wasn't stupid enough to do that. The Gray Temple had spent 100 years to maintain order in Chaos City, and its core was to strictly abide by the law.
Killing Gabriel, who clearly had a dirty hand, could be said to be self-defense, but if he killed Goodenia and Devoe, who were waiting outside, he would most likely have to live in the Bastie Prison.
Of course, no matter who wanted to kill Amy, they had to die.
Just like what he had said to Gabriel, even though he was standing behind Amy, he was always ready to die for her, and he definitely wouldn't allow anyone to hurt her before he fell.
"Are … are you alright?" Yabemiya's face paled slightly upon hearing the cries outside. Murder was a serious crime in Chaos City, and regardless of whether it was Amy or Meg who had done it, it would be very difficult for the restaurant to continue operating. Meg might even be arrested.
Sally was also looking at Meg with a complex expression. Even though Meg's body blocked her view, what had killed Gabriel was the chopstick that had pierced through his neck, while there was only one chopstick left beside Meg's bowl.
"Let's continue eating. We still have to clean up the restaurant later." Meg nodded and sat down again. He looked at Amy, who was immersed in the delicious braised chicken, and a gratified smile appeared on his face. As expected, watching Amy eat was the most healing thing.
"Oh …" Yabemiya looked at the smile on Meg's face, and immediately felt a lot more at ease. He hesitated momentarily before sitting down again.
Sally glanced at the door before picking up her chopsticks and continuing to eat.
"Father, this braised chicken is really delicious. Can we continue to eat braised chicken tonight?" Amy asked expectantly as she ate.
"If you like it, of course." Meg nodded with a smile. He put a few pieces of chicken in his bowl into Amy's bowl, and patted Amy's head.
"Father is the best," Amy said happily as she rubbed her head against Meg's hand.
The atmosphere in the restaurant relaxed because of Amy's smile. Amy still didn't know what was going on outside, and Meg wasn't going to let her know, either.
"Captain, it seems to be that restaurant again this time! Which idiot dares to come here and cause trouble? " A thin young man beside Barzel ran toward Amy's with a strange expression.
"Check the injured and see if they're dead. Don't be in a hurry to arrest them. Inform the Metropolitan Police Department to come over and assess the situation first before making a decision." Barzel's expression was a little ugly. He glanced at Julian, who had pulled out a deck chair and was playing with the two birds hanging by the door. He added, "Monkey, you go and inform Sir Brandli about this."
"Yes, Sir!" The young man called Monkey answered and ran toward the two people lying beside the carriage. He put his finger under Goodenia's and Devoe's nostrils, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although they were weak, they were still alive. Their bodies were covered with burns and wounds caused by the explosion. It looked a little scary, but as long as they weren't dead, it was just an ordinary first-class incident.
"Monkey, a third-class incident. Report!" Barzel stood beside Gabriel's body and frowned when he saw the chopstick sticking out of Gabriel's neck. The thing he didn't want to happen the most had happened.
"Yes, Sir!" Monkey's expression changed, and he quickly ran over. A third-class incident meant that not only did someone die, but it was also not an ordinary person.
"Captain!" Five people from the Metropolitan Police Department rushed over and looked at the scene, waiting for Barzel's orders.
"Keep an eye on him. Bob, treat the injured first. The rest of you, follow me." Barzel pointed at Johnny, but his sharp eyes were fixed on Meg, who was eating in the restaurant. He walked toward the restaurant.
