Chapter 787 - Country Mission (1/2)

After getting his thoughts in order, Yuan Zhou focused on the reward pool again.

“Ok, let’s start the draw,” Yuan Zhou spoke in an obviously disinterested manner. He lazily moved the turntable in his head to start the draw.

The turntable spun and instantly, it blurred. It was impossible for Yuan Zhou to guess where the arrow would stop. He randomly called for it to stop and the turntable started slowing down.

Shortly after, the arrow stopped at the Beijing Roasted Duck Yuan Zhou mentioned. An image of a Beijing Roasted Duck with only the skin served appeared in his mind.

Fine, this was definitely something the system would do.

“Ok, better than nothing,” Yuan Zhou said after giving the reward a single glance.

After Yuan Zhou accepted the reward, the system spoke again.

The system displayed, “Congratulations, host, for obtaining a Thai dish.”

Yuan Zhou gave no reply. The system continued.

The system displayed, “As the host has already grasped Chinese, French, Danish, Swedish, and Thai dishes, the country mission is hereby unlocked.”

“What? Country mission? What in the world is that?” Yuan Zhou asked in stupefaction.

The system explained patiently, “The host will know after the mission is issued.”

“So will I be visiting these countries for missions in the future?” Yuan Zhou guessed.

However, the system sank into silence and refused to divulge anything no matter how Yuan Zhou pushed for an answer.

While Yuan Zhou flooded the system with questions, the plane reached the transit hub. Yuan Zhou easily passed the security check and got onto the flight bound for Chengdu.

That’s right. For the sake of taking Singapore Airlines during the return flight, Yuan Zhou was willing to take the transit flight at Shanghai before returning to Chengdu.

The travel back was smooth. When he arrived at Chengdu, the sky was already dark. Yuan Zhou called the car he had booked in advance.

“I am back!” Yuan Zhou yelled as he inhaled the cold air of Chengdu.

As he was yelling, the driver called him.

Yuan Zhou answered the call and after some coordination, Yuan Zhou found the driver. He first placed his luggage in the trunk before entering the car. Then, the driver stepped on the pedal and the car sped off.

There was a saying, “With tumultuous applause, I appear gloriously on the stage under the spotlight”.

As for Yuan Zhou, it was, “Even without tumultuous applause and no spotlight, he would still appear on the stage”.

When he reached Taoxi Road, it was already quite late. While Yuan Zhou’s restaurant had been closed for business, the nights of Taoxi Road were extremely quiet. Normally, this would be the business time of his pub. There would also be stalls selling BBQ meats by the street.

Many people would still linger around eating BBQ and drinking beer as they smelled the fragrance of the liquor in the air even if they failed the draw.

Yuan Zhou was planning to move quietly and silently. Of course, this was not because he was worried that he would be noticed and get himself beaten up. He was mainly afraid of creating too much noise and interrupting the sleep of others. It turned out that he had been thinking too much as the street was completely devoid of people.

“I have only taken a detour and used the front door. Why is there nobody here?” Yuan Zhou muttered.

If it wasn’t for the lanterns hung in front of the stores, Yuan Zhou would have thought that he had arrived at the wrong location.

“What will happen to the girls that need to travel through this street?” Yuan Zhou suddenly thought of an issue. With how quiet the street was, wouldn’t the girls be afraid when they were passing by alone?

Apart from the A4 paper he had pasted, there were also other A4 papers and some stickers pasted on his door.

“Huh?”

What was this? It was too dark so he could not see clearly. He pulled them all off his door before entering and closing the door.
