Chapter 45 Pig Teammate

Not long after leaving the pediatric ward, Feng Bujue arrived at the restaurant. The lighting here was much better, and the light was brighter than in the hallway. A quick glance showed that the entire space was clearly visible.

Although the area was not small, the layout of the restaurant gave a very cramped feeling. All the tables and chairs were arranged closely together, and the chairs were welded to the tables. The gap between the tables was just enough for one person to pass through.

The food distribution counter was directly connected to the kitchen, located on the east side of the restaurant. The west side was a passageway, with several vending machines and some trash cans placed there. The north and south ends each had an exit, connecting to Buildings A and B on the first floor of the hospital.

After exploring for some time, Feng Bujue had vaguely discovered a problem... Apart from the spatially distorted corridors and the non-existent "Room 125," all the rooms in this hospital had a subtle sense of disharmony. To sum it up in one sentence: "There is no extra space." It was as if too many rooms had been crammed into the building, so that the layout inside each room seemed cramped.

"You're slow." A familiar voice suddenly entered Feng Bujue's ears.

Brother Jue turned his head sharply and saw... from the kitchen, a burly figure was walking toward him, a pig-headed man, full of murderous intent.

"You..." Feng Bujue's expression changed slightly, "How could you be here?"

"Why can't I be here?" As Oink spoke, he quickly closed in.

At this moment, Feng Bujue suddenly noticed... the other party was also holding a kitchen knife.

"What do you want?" He quickly jumped back, took out his folding knife, and prepared to resist.

"Don't be so alarmed, Feng Bujue." Oink replied, "You're using Lester's body now. If I really wanted to cut you, you wouldn't be able to resist at all." As he said this, he had already reached Brother Jue.

Feng Bujue was not surprised that Oink could see through his true form. The last time they met, he had judged that the other party was a unique data entity, and it was normal to have this ability. But at this moment, Brother Jue really didn't know why the other party had appeared, and... what the purpose of their appearance was.

"I'm just here to bring you something." Oink continued.

Before he finished speaking, he flicked the hand holding the knife, turning the handle of the kitchen knife forward and handing it to Feng Bujue.

Brother Jue hesitated slightly and reached out to take the knife.

The moment the item was in his hand, he quickly began to browse:

[Name: Must Break Defense Blade]

[Type: Weapon]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Attack Power: ???]

[Attribute: None]

[Effect: When the defense of the target being slashed (including players, monsters, NPCs) is "Stronger" or even higher (depending on the part being slashed in some cases), the attack power of this knife will always be judged to be 0.1 higher than the opponent's defense.]

[Equipment Condition: Close Combat Specialization A, Bound After Equipment]

[Can Be Brought Out of This Script: Yes]

[Remark: In normal state, this is a dull knife that can't cut anything. But when necessary, it can cut through everything.]

After Feng Bujue finished reading the item description, he looked at the other party excitedly and thanked him with his unique humor, "Second Senior Brother! Your great kindness..."

"Be serious when you thank me!" Oink shouted and slapped him.

Feng Bujue was sent flying by the slap, spinning two and a half times in the air before landing, and he also had the misfortune of falling on the blade of the kitchen knife.

Two seconds later, he jumped up again and shouted, "Even my..."

"If you dare say 'Even my father has never hit me,' I'll slap you again." Oink interrupted.

"Tch..." Brother Jue spat unhappily, muttering in his mouth, "Stop me from making a witty remark... Do you believe I'll stab you with a knife..." As he said this, he suddenly realized that he had just fallen on the blade, but he hadn't been cut, just a little uncomfortable...

"You roughly understand the characteristics of this knife now, right?" Oink seemed to have discerned something from Brother Jue's eyes. He continued, "Actually, this is the kitchen knife you gave me back then, now it's returned to its original owner."

"Hmm..." Feng Bujue heard this and thought for a few seconds, "I said... Brother Oink, we're not related, why would you..."

"Didn't I say it already?" Oink replied, "I'm just here to 'bring' you something."

Feng Bujue's expression changed, "Oh? So... you were entrusted by someone?"

"Yes." Oink replied, "This knife in your hand was personally modified by [Zhuan Xie Zun], and he also asked me to bring the knife to you."

As soon as Brother Jue heard this, he immediately thought, "There's no such thing as a free lunch..."

But on the surface, he remained calm and replied in a rascal-like tone, "What? Does Zhuan Xie Zun want to win me over?"

"It's not really winning you over..." Oink said, "To quote his original words... 'Feng Bujue is the type who responds to kindness but not to force; giving him some benefits will help with communication.'"

"Hehe..." Brother Jue sneered twice, "Then... he must have also asked you to 'bring' some words to me."

"Just one sentence." Oink said smoothly, "[Mo Yao Ling Shu] is actually a key."

"A key..." Feng Bujue murmured, "Just hearing these two words gives me a headache right now..."

"I've delivered the message." Oink said, reaching into his pants pocket again. Then, he really took out a key, "Take this."

Feng Bujue didn't think much about it, he just took whatever the other party handed over.

[Name: Blood Bank Key]

[Type: Plot Related]

[Quality: Ordinary]

[Function: Opens the door to the blood bank]

[Can Be Brought Out of This Script: No]

[Remark: For some reason, this thing is actually in the hands of a cook.]

"I said..." Feng Bujue looked up at Oink, "You shouldn't be from this hospital, right?"

"No."

"Then how do you have this key?"

"I found it on a cook here." Oink replied.

"Uh... Where's the cook here?" When Feng Bujue asked this question, he already had a very bad guess in his mind.

"Stewing in the pot." Oink said, "You can go to the kitchen later and eat that pot of stuff, you can immediately recover to full status."

"Heh... Heh heh..." Brother Jue's mouth twitched, "Thank... Thank you."

After saying these words, Oink was ready to leave. But just as he was about to turn around, he seemed to have remembered something and said, "Oh, right, you better put that knife in your dimension pocket..." He paused, his eyes changed slightly, "The space you're in right now is probably a little different from what you think..."

"Uh... My knapsack has been locked." Feng Bujue said bluntly.

"What a pain..." Oink shook his head, stepped forward, grabbed the kitchen knife, and stabbed it diagonally into Brother Jue's chest.

In the next second... the thing was actually forcibly stuffed into Feng Bujue's knapsack.

"Wow!" Brother Jue's eyes lit up, "Brother Oink! Can you help me take something out?"

"No." Oink replied crisply and resolutely, "Goodbye." With that, he turned and left.

Feng Bujue didn't intend to continue to pester the other party, because the back of this "Butcher of Heaven" seemed to be saying something like: "If you dare come over, I'll slap you."

............

After Oink left, Brother Jue didn't rush to the vending machine to get the mission items, but went to the kitchen first.

This time, he was more careful. In order to prevent the room from collapsing after he got the plot items, he decided to first scout the environment and then get the iced beer.

"Whoa~ What happened here?" As soon as Feng Bujue entered the kitchen, he saw blood and internal organs all over the walls and floor...

Not far from him, on the cooking table, there was also a white wolf head. The face of this white wolf had some anthropomorphic features, and it seemed to be a werewolf or something. But this guy's body was gone... or rather... it was stewing in the pot.

After thinking for a few seconds, Brother Jue understood the general situation here.

"Hmm... This one is undoubtedly the chef of the hospital restaurant..." Feng Bujue pondered, "Then... the original two events here should be 'exchanging candy for the blood bank key' and 'exchanging a meal card for a meal that can restore health.'" He paused, "And now Oink directly used violence to help me skip these two steps."

Thinking of this, Brother Jue immediately slammed the table and shouted, "Then what the hell did I eat that moldy sandwich for? Why!"

After being depressed for a while, he could only give up, opened the pot and began to eat the broth made from the white wolf clan chef...

In any case, this pot of wolf meat (let's just assume it's wolf meat) soup was at least freshly cooked with fresh ingredients. It was much better than that sandwich that had been left for who knows how long.

Moreover, Oink's cooking skills were not bad, and the things he made were not unpalatable. Of course, even if it was really unpalatable, it didn't matter to Feng Bujue anymore...

After eating some broth, Brother Jue's Survival Points and Stamina Points were restored to full.

Afterward, he searched the kitchen and restaurant...

In addition to pots and pans, there were naturally knives in the kitchen. Even if it was just ordinary kitchen utensils, it was stronger than the folding knife in Brother Jue's pocket, so he just picked one at random for self-defense.

But... that was all, he searched for a long time, but he couldn't find any other valuable items.

So, Feng Bujue finally came to the vending machine and took out the coins in his pocket.

"Wait..." Just as he was about to insert the coin, he thought of another problem, "If I buy it now, it is indeed iced beer, but if it stays in my pocket for a long time, won't the beer get warm..."
