It's just a grocery store.

Chapter 149 Happy Halloween (Part 2)

Kuroba Kaito thought for a moment, then shook his head and gave up. He didn't want to learn it. Chinese dim sum was so complicated to make, and he wasn't planning to be a pastry chef, so why would he learn it?

Reitoki felt regretful, as he almost found another idiot to do hard labor for him. Seeing Reitoki's expression, Kudo Shinichi and Kuroba Kaito understood everything, as this guy was trying to trick them all into doing hard labor for him again.

Kuroba Kaito: "Hey, as a grocery store owner, why don't you work hard to develop your job? You have to be so stubborn as to open a dessert shop!?"

Zero Hour said confidently:

"What does it matter? A grocery store is essentially a small, casual shop that's deserted most of the time. I'm clearly making my fortune from the side hustle!"

Wow, that was said so confidently that even the system couldn't help but complain, but then the clever system suddenly became clever.

System: Could it be that you, Host, chose the grocery store in the first place because...

Zero Hour: Huh? Yeah, that's a must for slacking off, right? We can open whenever we want, or even not open at all!

System: Wow wow wow wow, host, you actually didn’t plan to do the mission properly from the beginning.

Lingshi felt guilty, but he still tried to argue that he had accepted the mission, so how could he not do it well?

System: What about the host leaving the store and going to the flower garden after completing a few tasks at the beginning?

The system was so sad. Its host had been slacking off and even running away quickly from the beginning. When Lingshi thought about this, he seemed to have been looking for some possibility with a fluke, but ended up disappointed.

Well, after all, this isn't the original world, no matter how similar it is, but thanks to that lucky break, he found a new bond, didn't he?

Lingshi looked over and, as if sensing something, Huang Quan turned around to meet his gaze. As a result, the lights dimmed and everyone became noisy.

Lingshi was not worried, after all, he was also one of the planners. He saw a beam of light shining down on Harrow's signature waiter and manager.

In order to hold this event, we booked the entire street at midnight and just gathered in the store. Now everyone has walked outside to around the stage.

Adhering to the principle of being an undercover agent, Toru Amuro agreed to appear as the host because he was dressed as a monster. At this time, Midorikawa standing on the stage was a cat demon, and Amuro was a masked knight.

Acquaintances and regular customers praised their handsome attire. Without wasting time, the first project of Harrow today was announced. As soon as everyone entered the door, they were given a wristband and were asked to find a partner based on the color of the wristband.

When Lingshi raised his hand, he saw that the fluorescent paint on the bracelet was blue. He took the initiative to look towards Huang Quan, and sure enough, it was green.

Wait, no, green!? Zero turned to look at Hagiwara Kenji and the other man handing out the bracelets, only to see them grinning wickedly.

Zero Hour: Hey, is this what you’re doing?

When Huang Quan saw the blue in Lingshi's hand on the other side, he knew that this was to separate the two of them into two teams.

Because there are many customers who actively participate in the event, they are divided into three color camps, and the final team is determined by the subsequent elimination questions.

The prize is 2 million yen and a three-day and three-night trip for two people at any location.

Hearing the prizes, the crowd below started to get excited, and then Amuro and his team took advantage of the situation, stabilized the enthusiasm of the audience and started the first round, the question-and-answer competition.

Midorikawa read the questions from the flashcards, and the audience raised their hands to answer. Those who answered correctly went on stage. Each team was limited to three people, and this made the audience even more excited, and they rushed to raise their hands to answer.

Unfortunately, the final nine people selected were Reitoki, Hagiwara, and Hakuba Tan from the blue team; Yomi, Kuroba, and Kudo from the green team; and finally Matsuda, Hattori, and Haibara Ai from the red team.

Of course, for the sake of privacy, Midorikawa and Amuro were named after the monsters they played. Kudo Shinichi only temporarily turned back to accompany Mouri Ran for the holiday, so it had to be kept secret.

The beginning was just as Lingshi had thought. He wouldn't be so stupid as to give money to a stranger and ask him to travel. Of course, unless he could squeeze any of them out, he had the ability to do so, then Lingshi would have no objection.

Midorikawa: "Now that the contestants have been selected, let's start the official part. Don't be sad if you weren't selected. We will also give out participation gifts to guests of corresponding colors according to the final ranking of the team."

When the other guests heard that there were participation prizes, they also became excited and cheered for the team on the stage.

Amuro: "Then the next thing is, you gesture and I guess. Two people from each team gesture, and one person is responsible for guessing. The one with the highest score wins. Please have representatives from the three teams play rock-paper-scissors to decide the order of appearance."

Reitoki and Hagiwara simply gave way to Hakuba Tan. After all, he was the youngest among the three, so they didn't try to steal the limelight.

So the scene appeared where Hakuba Tan, Kuroba and Hattori played rock-paper-scissors. Although it was a pity, the mummy Kudo Shinichi didn't intend to attract too much attention at all.

The final order of appearance was decided to be the Green Team, the Blue Team, and the Red Team. Hattori held his head and shouted what a pity, while the Green Team took the lead in preparing.

As the smartest think tank, Kudo Shinichi was naturally the one to guess, while Yomi and Kuroba Kaito were responsible for gestures.

The two people who were making gestures were not allowed to speak, and it almost turned into a Kaito Kuroba imitation show. The title was "Vampire". Kaito Kuroba pointed at Zero Hour, and Shinichi Kudo said to him, "Love-brained."

Kuroba Kaito/Zero Hour: ...

Kudo Shinichi: Subconsciously, subconsciously.

After the mistake, Kudo Shinichi immediately reacted and answered the vampire. The people in the audience laughed so hard. Although they didn't know why, it was really funny to hear the vampire being pointed at and called a love-brained person.

Within the specified time, the Green Team answered 30 questions correctly and it was the Blue Team's turn. Lingshi hesitated for a while. Bai Ma was supposed to be smart, but he and Hagiwara had the best understanding, and he didn't have much interaction with Bai Ma, so this was a test of their understanding.

Finally, Hagiwara was chosen to guess, while Lingshi and Hakuba competed. In short, it is better to consider tacit understanding first.

The first word was "chocolate." Hakuba Tan gestured to the words, meaning food. Then, he lost track of what was going on. He pointed at Hagiwara and then at Matsuda, making a heart shape with his hands.

"chocolate!"

This was how he gave out chocolates on Valentine's Day before. Uh uh uh, the memory immediately came flooding back to the man's head, his face flushed, and the audience below started to boo.

In the end, the Blue Team managed to answer 30 questions correctly. It was a pity for the Red Team. Although they sent Hattori Heiji to guess, the two people who were gesturing with him obviously had no tacit understanding with them. They only answered 27 questions correctly and narrowly lost!

Finally, the Blue Team and the Green Team will play overtime. Not prepared? Then give each other a test!

Rock-Paper-Scissors, the blue team took the initiative to ask questions, and at zero o'clock, they picked up the microphone and said:

"Demon Sang (Hei Yu) over there, what animal has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening?"

The designated person, Kaito Kuroba, could only take the microphone and think hard about the question. Shinichi Kudo on the side also began to think about it. As the countdown became tense, Kaito Kuroba looked around and finally gave the correct answer.

Then Kuroba Kaito asked a question and designated the person on the opposite side to answer it. Since the question was something both parties knew, Kuroba Kaito simply let himself go.

"Vampire-kun, may I ask when you first met your lover?!"

"8:23 PM on December 9th, ■!"

both sides:??

After answering, Zero realized something was wrong. How could this guy be smuggling something in? Kuroba Kaito turned to look at Yomi, who coughed and nodded to indicate that he was right.

Kudo Shinichi: You are giving away points on purpose and feeding us a big mouthful of dog food.

Kuroba Kaito: I'm curious!

In the end, everyone was eliminated, and the most unruly member of the Green Team, Kuroba Kaito, was the first to leave the stage, because Hakuba asked him when Kaito Kidd first appeared, and he said when he first played the role.

Kuroba Kaito: I was tricked.

The competition became more and more intense, and in the end only Lingshi and Huangquan were left. Hagiwara, who deliberately walked off the stage, looked at the stage excitedly. Matsuda Jinpei was speechless, as he was still unhappy about being eliminated.

On the stage, the serious questions and answers between Ling Shi and Huang Quan made the scene tense and stalemate. The audience below were tired of watching. Looking at Huang Quan, Ling Shi finally referred to Kuroba Kaito.

Midnight: "What does your lover like most?"

Huang Quan was about to answer when he saw the cunning light in Lingshi's eyes. This guy came with bad intentions. Did he want me to answer him or something?

Huang Quan stopped where he was, and everyone looked confused. This question was obviously very simple. It was obvious that they were a couple just now. If they couldn't tell it, they wouldn't quarrel, right?

Huang Quan: "The one you like the most is... me?"

Midnight: No regrets in this life.

Lingshi covered his chest and told Midorikawa that he surrendered.

"I surrender. Let him win. I don't want to be separated from my lover!"

Some people were happy about the result while others were dissatisfied, but they were all ignored by Zero Hour, who simply snatched the magician away on the spot.

Zero Hour: "The prizes have been divided up, we'll come back tomorrow to get them!"

Huang Quan: "I want to travel, you two can divide the two million."
