The Demon's Menu-Chapter 700: Prelude to the Echo
Chapter 700 -77 Prelude to the Echo
When you’ve worked hard all day and are about to enjoy a sumptuous dinner as a treat to yourself, suddenly someone appears and flips your table over.
What would you do?
1, Smile and act as if nothing happened.
2, Burst into anger and have a go at the person.
3, Seriously reflect and apologize to the person.
...
Some people might choose 1, and they could be called magnanimous.
Some people might choose 2, which comes from the heart and is a true reflection of their character.
As for 3?
Emmmm…
Different strokes for different folks.
The world is vast and filled with wonders.
People are varied in every imaginable way.
There are the upright and the sycophants.
There are those with an iron spine and those whose backbones are broken.
And there are many more people who simply cannot be neatly described in words.
Because humans are fickle.
They change with the environment.
They change because of someone else.
Jason is no exception.
But there is one thing about Jason that won’t change.
He will never let go of someone who has tampered with his food.
No!
It’s no longer just about a simple meal.
It’s about tearing up his long-term meal ticket!
Unforgivable!
Just moments ago, Jason, still harboring slight expectations for dinner and brimming with joy, looked at the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ engulfed in flames, his eyes twitching, a shade of crimson blooming within them.
The most primal rage, akin to the raging flames before him, was burning through his heart.
Right now, Jason wanted to do just one thing!
And that was to tear apart the person who had blown up the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’.
In fact, it wasn’t just Jason who had this thought.
Delbon did too!
Delbon, who had just staggered in haste into the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’, had already been filled with fantasies about the delicious food inside.
But what happened?
He didn’t get to eat, but instead, was thrown over ten meters away by the blast wave from the explosion.
If it weren’t for the protection of several ‘force shields’, Delbon would already be shattered to pieces.
But even so, Delbon was in a sorry state.
Not to speak of his tattered clothes, the fall had left Delbon’s otherwise handsome face swollen and bruised.
Especially around the mouth and eyes.
His mouth was cut and bleeding.
The swollen eyes resembled two peaches even more.
As pain shot through his whole body, Delbon couldn’t help but grimace with gritted teeth, but his swollen eyes remained fixed on the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ now aflame.
The dinner was gone!
No!
The ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ was gone!
Delbon had dined at the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’.
But precisely because he had dined there, he knew just how delectable their food was.
Now that the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ was consumed by flames, considering the explosion, it was unlikely anyone inside had survived.
In short, even if the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ were to be rebuilt, without the chefs, would it still be the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’?
"Who?”
"Who is it?”
As Delbon roared, thinking he’d never be able to enjoy the food from the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ again, his puffy eyes scanned his surroundings furiously.
He was searching for the culprit.
The Johns, Kemi, and Telly around him were also looking for the perpetrator.
But Bolun was not.
Facing the destruction of the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’, his only asset, this young man still maintained a smile, faint as it was, yet his eyes were cold and sharp.
To Bolun, the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ never held much sentimental value.
Can you really expect someone who’s only been in touch with the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ for a few days to have profound feelings?
That’s unrealistic.
But what was realistic was the massive amount of money Bolun had spent to acquire the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’.
After spending so much money, Bolun found himself financially strained.
What’s more crucial is that this money came from abandoning his status as heir to the Bolun Family.
He had no way back.
In this young man’s plan, he intended to use the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ as a link to forge a closer relationship with Jason. Meanwhile, he planned to use the fame of the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ to dig up his first pot of gold.
Of course, the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ would also serve as a place for him and Emily to settle for a quite a long time in the future.
But now?
Gone!
The ‘link’ with Mr. Jason had been severed.
The plan for the first pot of gold was destroyed.
Even the place to settle was demolished.
Grating, grating.
Bolun’s eyes grew colder amid the noise of his grinding teeth.
Emily grabbed hold of Bolun.

It was the first time she had seen Bolun like this.
"Bolun?”
Emily asked worriedly.
Bolun shook his head, indicating he was fine.
He really was fine.
Although his plans had been disrupted, which made him angry, he wasn’t blinded by this anger. On the contrary, the more critical the moment, the calmer Bolun became.
Under such calm, Bolun quickly understood the situation at hand.
"Everyone hurry and leave!”
Bolun spoke.
Leave?
Delbon, still in his fury, was taken aback.
But he quickly came to his senses.
The bombing of the ‘Dine & Wine Pavilion’ was definitely not the perpetrator’s actual goal.
The goal was… Jason!
Somebody wanted to strike at Jason, the ‘Ship Slayer’!
And to take down a ‘Ship Slayer’, a mere explosion was not enough.
John loosened Daisy’s ropes with one hand and pulled out a gun with the other.
Brian grabbed Kemi’s hand and fished out a submachine gun from beneath his coat with the other.
McCaul pushed Telly into the car and took out a remote controller.
The next moment, two drones took to the air.
When it comes to dealing with danger, no one was more experienced than these three.
While ensuring the safety of their loved ones, they armed themselves and then decided to retreat.
