Zhao Yuan felt anxious as she watched the timer run out wondering what kind of punishment she would face.
As soon as the timer hit zero a beep sounded before the screen before changed and spoke up in a deep mechanical voice.
"Zhao Yuan, a native of Ambirie who was found to have the violated access and control law by visiting and living in a restricted world. Is hereby sentenced with becoming a shelter custodian in Baitian (an endangered world.)Please remain seated as you are transported to the area of punishment."
Her chair seemed to be bolted down to the ground as she felt the world around her shift as soon as the mechanical voice finished talking.
Holding on tightly to the arm rests she closed her eyes hoping to avoid feeling nauseous.
"Welcome to the first street shop. The custodian is required to cook and serve requested dishes."
The voice spoke again as soon as the world stopped spinning.
Staring up at the screen Zhao Yuan kept a straight face as she listened to the instructions.
"For every serving time the custodian is required to achieve the objectives given.
Objectives may include;
1)Serving a certain number of dishes or guests.
2)Fulfilling certain requirements for the serving time.
3)Collecting a certain amount of money.
Failure to fulfill objectives will cause the custodian to face additional punishment or decrease in Remorse points."
Hearing the system speak about objectives she nodded along as she wondered where the guests would come from.
The system did not give her more time to think as it beeped again drawing her out of her thoughts.
"To begin the designated serving times,custodians please click onto the screen on the counter"
Standing up she quickly walked to the counter and saw the small screen that was not there before before tapping on it.
The tablet shaped screen mimicked the big screen as it showed her a start icon prompting her to tap on it as it glowed and shook.
Tapping on it seemed to activate something as she felt the room shift as the previously messy chair and tables organised themselves and the counter and kitchen remodeled itself.
Watching the entire spectacle with wide eyes she couldn't help but be in awe of the scene in front of her.
As she gaped her shirt and skirt floated up and glowed before transforming into a uniform.
Looking down at the light pink and white colored waitress uniform she was impressed just as the bell above the door rang.
The sound seemed to be magical as it pierced through her thoughts making her look up at the shabbily dressed man walking in.
His figure seemed to be tired and hesitant as he slowly walked towards the counter.
Above his head square shaped icon appeared making her squint as she stared at the image of a sandwich.
Before he could even reach her the system spoke again.
"To prepare a sandwich first open this shoot and take out slices of bread."
Hearing the system's mechanical voice within her head she was startled before she opened the glowing shoot and took out slices of bread.
"Open this shoot to take out the lettuce-"
And so when the man finally stopped before the counter his sandwich was ready and handed to him making him freeze.
Staring at the man's wary figure Zhao Yuan felt confused as she pushed the plate closer to him hoping he would take it.
Wei Ting had been struggling to find anything to eat and so when he had seen the sign saying he would get food here he had come albeit sceptical.
But now someone was actually handing him a freshly made sandwich.
Staring up at the clean and neatly dressed woman before him he wanted to thank her when the door bell rang again.
Looking back at the person walking in he quickly took the plate and walked to one of the tables.
The second guest was another man, his eyes looked at her coldly as he sauntered in confidently.
Above his head was an icon this time for a glass of juice.
Just like before the system guided her as she made him a glass of juice before handing it over to him when he got to the counter.
Unlike the shabbily dressed Wei Ting he was more clean and glared into her eyes as he took his glass of juice and walked to Wei Ting's side.
The sandwich was delicious as Wei Ting quickly devoured it hoping to finish eating before the man got to his table.
Unfortunately he was too slow as he still had a bite left when Fu Zhe sat before him with a glass of juice.
As he was avoiding the cold hard gaze being lavished on him the bell rang once again before a familiar woman walked in.
Seeing her Wei Ting could not think anymore as he shoved the remaining sandwich into his mouth before running out.
Thanking the heavens they could not talk within the restaurant.
In the kitchen Zhao Yuan did not notice this as she quickly made her new female guest a glass of juice and handed it to her.
This time the guest seemed to be upset as she glared at her scornfully before angrily grabbing her glass of juice and walking to the table Fu Zhe was sitting in.
As they sat there slowly sipping their juice silently communicating with their eyes.
Zhao Yuan managed to serve two more people before the system told her she could close the restaurant.
Looking out to the man and woman still sipping the juice she scoffed before tapping on the icon to close the restaurant.
Fu Zhe who had been slowly sipping his juice suddenly felt a strong force strike his head with one word ringing.
"Get out!"
His ears felt as if they would burst as he struggled up and held onto a staggering Shi Wan before they both fled from the restaurant.
Back in the kitchen a humming Zhao Yuan was clueless as she cleaned up.
"Brother Zhe, what was that?" Shi Wan asked as soon as they made it out and felt the ringing stop.
"I don't know" He answered nonchalantly.
Fu Zhe was contemplative as he stared back at the closed restaurant door.
Something was going on with that woman he concluded before turning away.
He had to report her.
His tall muscular figure looked determined as he walked away.
Watching them leave Wei Ting quietly stepped out from the shadows with a plan bre
wing in his mind.
