Chapter 1973: When The Buying Stops, The Killing Can Too
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Three little maidens. One of them was about 12 years old, while the other two were around four years old. They were all very adorable.
Sicarra tried to calm herself down before she stepped forward to ask, “Excuse me, lovely ladies. Did you see my Gaga?”
“Gaga?” Amy stopped skipping, and turned to look at Sicarra. “What’s that?”
“Gaga is a goose, but it’s not a normal goose. It’s my precious. It’s rotund and fat with a yellow mouth. It’s about this big and this round. It’s super cute, and can fly a little bit.” Sicarra tried her best to describe it.
“Oh, I know it!” Amy was thoughtful.
“Really?!” Sicarra’s eyes immediately lit up, and she looked at Amy with joy. “Where is it?!”
The eyes of Genevieve, who didn’t have high hopes, also lit up, and she looked at Amy nervously. She knew how important Gaga was to Sicarra. If Gaga was indeed lost because of her, Sicarra would be sad for a very long time.
“Here.” Amy turned around, and lifted up Ugly Duckling, which was napping on the steps. “See, is it this one?”
“ฅ՞•ع•՞ฅ???” Ugly Duckling had a befuddled expression.
“What???”
Sicarra and Genevieve both had question marks all over their faces.
Although this orange cat was also round and fat, had a yellow mouth, and was super cute, it was still a cat! She was obviously looking for a goose.
“Don’t be fooled by its appearance. It’s actually an ugly duckling, and it can fly a little too. When spring comes, it will become a white swan, and soar freely in the sky. Of course, it may not be able to fly, because it’s too fat, but that’s fine. It can still be made into a roast goose,” Amy explained.
“Meow, meow?” Ugly Duckling’s eyes widened. Listen to her, is she talking sense?
“Hmm???” Sicarra’s and Genevieve’s eyes also widened. Although they didn’t understand what Amy was saying, they heard that she wanted to make a goose into a roast goose!
“Heavens! Gaga is so adorable. How could you guys eat it?” Tears welled up in Sicarra’s eyes.
“Today’s new product is the roast goose! I love to eat roast goose the most. It’s even more delicious than the duck.”
“Yes. I wonder how Boss Mag roasts it. The roast goose at the square’s exit is quite nice too.”
“He has to skin the goose first. Otherwise, he can’t get rid of the feathers on it.”
The customers began to arrive one by one. They saw the little black board on the restaurant’s door, and many customers who saw it for the first time started to discuss it.
“Gaga, you have died horribly…” Sicarra couldn’t stand that, and burst out in tears on the spot.
This wretched howl scared the customers, and they all looked at her in shock.
Genevieve smiled at the customers apologetically before she pulled Sicarra’s hand, and said, “They are not talking about Gaga. Don’t cry.”
“But they are eating geese. This restaurant roasts geese. Gaga is so pitiful…” Sicarra still wanted to cry.
Genevieve only wanted to kick the guy who guided them here without listening to them properly. He sent them to a restaurant that wasn’t friendly to geese at all, and gave Sicarra bad a.s.sociations.
“Then, we will go to some other places to look for it. Perhaps Gaga has gone to other places. It shouldn’t have come so far.” Genevieve wanted to bring Sicarra away from this miserable place. She was afraid Sicarra would feel more terrible when she saw the roast goose and thought of Gaga.
Sicarra wiped off her tears, looked at Mamy Restaurant with a convinced gaze, and said with conviction, “No. I believe Gaga is here. I’m going to save it!”
“But…” Genevieve looked at the exquisite restaurant. As a lady boss operating a breakfast shop at Aden Square, she was familiar with this Mamy Restaurant.
It was deemed the number one restaurant of Chaos City and the miracle of the industry. Even she herself wasn’t going to believe that Mamy Restaurant’s boss had stolen their goose.
“When the buying stops, the killing can too. I want to meet this restaurant’s boss, and make him release Gaga and stop killing geese,” Sicarra said with conviction.
Genevieve pulled Sicarra aside, and said in a low voice, “Sicarra, as a goose-lover, although Mother understands your feelings, we have to discuss this first. Although Gaga is very cute and important to you, we cannot stop others from eating geese because of this.”
“But, Gaga…”
Amy, who was listening at the side, looked at Sicarra, and interrupted, “If a rice-lover appears one day, are you going to starve yourself to death, Big Sister?”
“I…” Sicarra was rendered speechless at that moment.
“Furthermore, roast goose is really delicious! You can try it too, Big Sister. You will forget about the Gaga that flies away after eating our roast goose.” Amy didn’t forget to promote the restaurant’s new product.
“I’m not eating…” Sicarra quickly shook her head.
“Let’s go.” Genevieve held Sicarra’s hand.
“No! I want to make sure that Gaga isn’t there!” Sicarra shook her head with conviction again. Looking at Mamy Restaurant’s signboard, she took a deep breath, and seriously said, “I want to line up and wait for him to open!”
“Alright. It’s time for lunch too. Let’s have our lunch here, and try the skills of the chef of Chaos City’s number one restaurant.” Genevieve stopped persuading her. At least this was better than running around like a headless chicken.
Amy stroked Ugly Duckling’s head, and gently lamented, “Ugly Duckling, you are so ugly that n.o.body wants you.”
“Meow, meow?”
“I want it. Ugly Duckling is so adorable. I like it so much.” Jessica opened her arms wide, and scooped Ugly Duckling up. She rubbed her face against its furry head.
“Meow~” Ugly Duckling rubbed against Jessica’s chin smugly, proving that it was very much wanted.
“Oh, well, Jessica is just too kind.” Amy sighed.
Sicarra stood in the front, and listened to the foodies talk about the 1000 methods to cook geese. Tears slid down her face.
“They are so cruel…” Sicarra restrained her sadness while wiping away her tears. Her tummy started growling too.
“Yes. How can they subject us, two women who haven’t had breakfast, to such seduction at this time now.” Genevieve nodded in agreement.
“Hmm?” Sicarra turned to look at Genevieve.
“Erm…” Genevieve realized she seemed to have said something she shouldn’t have. She looked awkward before she pointed to the door in front. “The door’s opened.”
Sicarra turned back, and saw that the restaurant’s door indeed slowly opened outwards.
A young and handsome man dressed in a clean and neat chef’s suit walked out with a mesmerizing smile, and said, “Welcome to Mamy Restaurant.”
