Why is this high school student here again!

Seeing that it was Cheng Feng who entered the door, Mao Xiaoju was frightened.

Ever since she accidentally encountered a demon by this man last time, she has been walking on thin ice, fearing that the man would report it to the Disaster Association and attract a group of demon hunters.

Although this man is half vampire and half monster, it is logically impossible for him to associate with a demon hunter.

But last time, he even knew Liu Shiyu's monster killing machine, so he couldn't be sure.

This time we came to the door...could there be a group of demon hunters brought outside, right?

The cat Xiaoju was so scared that she didn't dare to say anything and even forgot to say the greeting words.

Cheng Feng didn't notice the nervous look on the maid behind the bar. He just led the monitor into the coffee shop and took a seat.

Mao Xiaoju breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. It seemed that he had been worrying too much.

After thinking about it, she turned around and ran to the kitchen to find the store manager and tell him.

…

Sitting down at the table by the window with Cheng Feng, Xia Qingyao was obviously her first time visiting this coffee shop. She had the impression that the store was very new, clean and tidy, and decorated luxuriously.

She turned her eyes with unconcealed curiosity. For the first time, she saw maids and waiters wearing cat-ear headdresses busy greeting guests.

Cheng Feng crossed the menu on the table, crossed his legs, and said in a very generous manner: "Squad leader, don't be polite to me, just order whatever you want."

After all, I owe you a meal, so it’s not you who pays for it, right?

Xia Qingyao was too lazy to complain, so she picked up the menu, flipped through two pages and read for a while, then ordered a few dishes and two cups of coffee.

The rain outside won't stop for a while, so let's eat lunch together.

After all, the two of them usually don't have a good relationship in the class. They basically argue with each other on a daily basis, so there are no topics to talk about and the atmosphere is quiet.

Cheng Feng was used to it, resting his elbows on the dining table, supporting his cheeks with his palms, looking out the window at the cloudy thunderstorm in boredom.

From the corner of his eye, he noticed that Xia Qingyao, who was sitting opposite, had a somewhat reserved posture.

Once someone passes by here, she will inadvertently look away, as if she is afraid of being noticed or worried about something.

"Monitor, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Cheng Feng suddenly had an idea and blurted out: "Is it my period?"

"Why are you talking to girls?" Xia Qingyao glared at him.

Cheng Feng asked again: "What happened?"

Xia Qingyao hesitated to express her worries: "There are so many people here and it is very close to the school. What if, what if someone familiar sees us..."

She didn't think much about it before she came in. After she sat down, she realized that there were many couples in the cafe.

She also realized that today was Sunday. If an acquaintance from the same class caught her and Cheng Feng coming to the coffee shop, they would be misunderstood.

The school has a clear rule that male and female students are not allowed to interact. She is the class monitor and the last thing she wants is to be misunderstood.

"That's it, there's nothing to worry about."

Cheng Feng looked indifferent: "It's raining so heavily outside, how can any student come to the coffee shop at this time, let alone meet acquaintances."

"Really?" Xia Qingyao was a little worried.

"Of course, in this rainy weather, boys will definitely stay at home and play games, while girls will lie on the sofa and watch TV series."

Cheng Feng spread his hands: "Except for us, if we weren't boyfriend and girlfriend, who would be together in this weather and come to a coffee shop together? What a great relationship that would be."

Hearing what he said, Xia Qingyao felt as if she was being shadowed, and her face turned slightly red: "Forget it, I'm going to the toilet."

Seeing her getting up and leaving her seat, Cheng Feng didn't pay attention.

Suddenly I heard approaching footsteps not far away, and thought it was the waiter coming with coffee.

Cheng Feng looked up and saw that the person who came was not a maid, but a middle-aged and elderly man with gray hair. He was the manager of this cafe.

"Hello, guest."

The old store manager's gray hair is neatly combed, his face is kind and approachable, and he exudes a restrained, low-key, and calm temperament.

The last time Cheng Feng came here, he met the store manager and the store manager treated him to a cup of coffee.

The store manager placed the two cups of coffee on the tray on the dining table and asked kindly: "Can I sit here? I would like to invite the guests to chat."

"Okay." Cheng Feng did not refuse. Anyway, Xia Qingyao went to the toilet and wouldn't be there for a while.

I was also wondering in my heart that this store manager, who I only met once, wanted to see him for something.

After the store manager sat down, he asked calmly: "Guest, you have been here twice, have you noticed that the customers in this store are different?"

"Not quite the same?"

Cheng Feng was puzzled, but the store manager quickly gave the answer: "Most of them... are monsters."

"monster?!"

Cheng Feng was slightly surprised and glanced around. The guests around him were chatting without knowing anything and tasting the fragrant coffee.

If it hadn't been for what the store manager said, it would have been hard for Cheng Feng to think that these people were monsters in human form.

Impossible, then why can't I smell the monster's scent?

He was surprised that he didn't smell the scent of 'these people' even though he clearly had the smell ability of a vampire.

"Is the guest wondering that as a vampire, he can't smell the smell of monsters?"

The store manager noticed Cheng Feng's thoughts and explained: "I set up a barrier in the store to isolate the monster's breath. In this way, even if a demon hunter enters the store, there is no way to tell the difference."

Cheng Feng became wary and said in a deep voice: "Store manager, you too..."

"Yes, I am a monster too."

The store manager showed no signs of hostility, with a smile on his friendly face: "I don't mean any harm, please don't be so wary."

Only then did Cheng Feng realize that it seemed that all the maids in this cafe were also transformed by monsters.

He unexpectedly entered the monster's territory twice without knowing it. Last time he drank coffee from this shop, but there was no danger.

From this point of view, the store manager does not have any malicious intentions, which is somewhat credible.

"You saw Xiaoju's cat ears last time, I think you may have noticed it."

The store manager put away his smile and sighed: "I have investigated and found that although you are a vampire, you have joined the Disaster Association. With an additional identity as a demon hunter, you are very likely to lead a team to clear this place."

Cheng Feng then remembered that the cat ears of the maid last time were real, not decorations, she was a cat demon.

The old store manager crossed his fingers on the table and said in a deep voice: "We have opened a store here for seven years. We have never eaten people, let alone hurt humans. We treat humans as customers with courtesy."

Are they harmless monsters?

This was the first time Cheng Feng heard that if what the store manager said was true, then there was really no reason for them to be enemies.

He frowned and said: "Even if you really don't eat humans, humans will not accept any monsters. Shouldn't you avoid people's eyes and ears? Why open a store and expose yourself to others."

"I know, but... if you want to survive in human society, you cannot avoid contact with humans. I... actually hope that humans and monsters can coexist harmoniously."

The owner's face was serious and his tone was sincere: "We just want to live a peaceful and stable life. This cafe is our home. We hope that the guests will not break anything here for the sake of the same kind of people."
