A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World
Chapter 1641 - This Time It's Proven, Right?Chapter 1641: This Time It’s Proven, Right?
Jason and Adolphus weren’t late, but there was already a long line in front of Mamy Restaurant as usual.
“I didn’t lie to you, did I? Mamy Restaurant’s line is always this long every day. If we’re late, we won’t get to eat.” Jason jumped off the horse-drawn carriage, and smiled at Adolphus’s shocked expression.
“Are all these patients waiting to get treated?” Adolphus was indeed shocked. It seemed like the scale of this restaurant’s scam had already become so exaggerated. On top of that, it was located near the city lord’s castle and right next to Bastie Prison.
“What are you thinking about? Of course they are waiting to eat.” Jason didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He suddenly regretted blabbering off on their way here. He said, “Let’s go line up quickly. Otherwise, judging from the number of people, we won’t even get to eat the tofu pudding, much less be conflicted over which flavor to get.”
Adolphus followed Jason to the back of the line, and sized up the customers lining up. There were humans, elves, demons, orcs… Almost every race could be seen in the line. This made his heart sink further. It seemed like humans weren’t the only ones who got tricked.
However, what shocked him was that these customers looked different from the usual gloomy patients he had seen. As an old doctor with more than 30 years of experience, he claimed that he could tell a person’s health based on a person’s energy level.
All in all, these people didn’t seem like usual patients.
In fact, judging from the way they dressed, many of them could be considered Chaos City’s upper class with a high net worth. Why, then, would they be scammed by such cheap tricks?

However, when he walked past and heard that these two people split into two gangs, and heard them debate and argue over whether the sweet tofu pudding was better or savory tofu pudding was better, he was even more certain that this restaurant was a scam.
Adolphus looked around with a heavy heart as he stood in line. However, he could not find that pair of siblings, and didn’t know if they realized that they had been scammed.
Not long after, the restaurant opened. A young man with a small mustache stood by the door with a group of beautiful service staff, welcoming the customers.
However, the young owner seemed to have a rather good relationship with the customers. He even knew most of the customers’ names, and greeted them in a warm and friendly way. That did give people a good impression.
“Boss Mag, there’s still rum today, right?” Jason asked with a smile as he looked at Mag.
“We don’t have much stock left. Cherish every drop you have,” Mag replied with a smile. That wasn’t a lie. Of the 10 barrels of rum that he had taken out, only four were left. They’d probably run out of it by the day after tomorrow. After that, they would have to wait for Hannah’s brewery to start work to make new rum.
“That’s fast!” Jason and the other customers who came for the rum sighed collectively.
However, on second thought, they were glad that at least they managed to have a few glasses over these few days. Such good wine was hard to come by in the first place.
Jason brought Adolphus to a seat near the entrance, where they shared the table with two other drinkers.
Jason was chatting with the other two drinkers. When he saw that Adolphus still had a very serious expression, he did not introduce him to the other two. When the wine and food came, they would naturally start talking to each other after a few drinks.
“I don’t see them around?” Adolphus muttered under his breath.
“Maybe he’s cured, so they didn’t have to come,” Jason replied casually. He really hoped that the pair of siblings wouldn’t come tonight. He was very worried that this good friend of his, who’d been quite competitive since a young age, would keep harping on this matter and end up being blacklisted by the restaurant. By then, he wouldn’t even have a place to cry at.
“Wow. What a beautiful restaurant. Grandpa, why didn’t you bring me over earlier? Hmph~!” Just then, a bright voice sounded at the restaurant’s entrance.
Adolphus turned over to look instinctively, and managed to see the four people walk in.
The person walking in front was a young girl wearing a white mink cape. It was obvious that the mink cape was very expensive, but that was not what made Adolphus continue looking. His gaze went straight to the old man who followed behind the young girl through the door. His eyes widened a little. It was the old man who brought the pair of siblings over this morning. And following behind them was the pair of siblings who sought medical help.
The only difference was that they had changed out of their tattered clothes into new clothes, and their messy hair had been tidied up, so they didn’t look so pitiful anymore.
What really shocked Adolphus was the young boy’s eyes. They were initially almost covered by an unknown white substance, but now they had actually regained some of the colors a normal eye should have, as though the layer of white had been scraped off.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn top of that, the boy came in himself. Although he was not walking very quickly, it was apparent that he could see.
It had only been half a day, and the boy had been almost completely blind. How could he have reached this obvious state of recovery?
“Isn’t that the young boy? He can already see?” Jason exclaimed in shock when he noticed the young boy enter.
Many customers who were waiting for their dishes to be served also turned to look at Lucy and Darren when they heard that. When they saw Darren walking in on his own and his obviously clearer eyes, they started raising a commotion.
When Christopher brought this child over for treatment, he attracted quite some attention. Everyone saw the child finish 10 skewers of roasted pig’s eyes, and they were all looking forward to seeing if the boy could regain his vision. They did not expect that he would be able to walk independently tonight.
“That’s great. Boss Mag has done yet another good deed.”
“So roasted pig’s eyes really can treat eye diseases? This time it’s proven, right?”
“It’s not just treatment, it’s practically a miracle drug!”
“I’ll bring my seventh granduncle over to have the roasted pig’s eyes tomorrow. He lost his sight a few days ago, and kept calling out to me.”
The customers started chatting softly, and were sincerely happy that the child could regain his sight.
“Boy, can you really see?” Adolphus stood up and pulled Darren back to ask him in both surprise and disbelief.
