Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 340 - 340 Dear mommy

340 Dear mommy

” I am not even a chef so why am I even hunting a boar and even grilling these skewers? What is the point seriously?” Liu Hui Ying grumbled as she twisted the sticks on which she has placed the chopped pork belly that was marinated with barbecue sauce, it was a good thing that the caretaker who lived on the funeral grounds had a considerable amount of food ingredients which she was able to steal with the help of her three ghosts but still! Why was she grilling pork belly? She was the Empress of this city damn it!

For the first time ever since she came here, Liu Hui Ying was truly upset as she sat in front of the makeshift stove plus grill that she has made with the pieces of equipment available in the caretaker’s house as she twisted the stick that was on the grill with pork belly speared on it.

“Make the next one extra juicy,” she heard the witch say from behind as she burped and then swallowed —-no, she practically inhaled the remaining skewers that were in front of her. ” I believe that you can make these more juicier and you are just slacking off since you don’t want to serve me.”

The witch who was offered the grilled pork belly by Liu Hui Ying licked her lips and then said, ” I am a very picky person, if this is not to my satisfaction then I might not give you the answers that you want.”

Liu Hui Ying really did not want to serve this witch, she was the kind of woman who would eat bread jam before bread instead of frying rice when she came back home tired and frustrated. Who would have thought that she would one day, grill skewers for a witch when she did not even boil water for herself?

“. I understand, is there anything else that you would like with this?” Liu Hui Ying asked as she looked at the witch who was gulping down the pork skewers even though she had so many complaints regarding her cooking.

The witch did not answer instead she chewed on the last bite of her meat and then licked her lips with the tip of her tongue as she hummed and said, ” If you don’t mind, can you make me some bone broth? I miss the feeling of drinking something warm, tantalising and comforting. Make sure that you chose the meatiest neck bones, I would like it if the meat simply falls off and melts in my mouth.”

‘Damn this ghost, is she a witch or was she a glutton in her past life? How can she eat so much? I only asked that sarcastically and yet she actually ordered?’ Liu Hui Ying cursed in her head but then she waved her hand in front of her and said, ” There is no pot, how am I supposed to make a bone broth when I have to stew it for three hours before it becomes as chewy and soft as you want.”

“I have nowhere to go and I am certain without the answers to your questions, you have nowhere to go either, right?” The witch muttered as she cleaned the gap between her teeth and when she lifted her head and looked at Liu Hui Ying, she had a cheeky look in her eyes as she said, ” If I don’t get the broth then I might not open my mouth.”

.....

Liu Hui Ying : (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Liu Hui Ying felt like she was going to explode but she still pursed her lips and then closed her eyes and turned to look at Li Gang and said, ” Go and steal a pot.”

” Why are you sending me to steal? You even asked me to steal the ingredients, do I look like a professional thief to you?” Li Gang questioned, earlier when he was stealing the ingredients, he was almost caught by the caretaker who woke up just as he was sneaking out with the bottle and jars of sauces, if he was still awake and caught him carrying the pot what will he do?

But just as he questioned Liu Hui Ying, all three women turned to look at him with the same expression and only then he was reminded of his old profession.

Li Gang held a hand up and said, ” There is no need, don’t answer that question, I get it. I will go and steal the pot.” Damn just what kind of days was he living as a ghost? When he was alive he was the nightmare of his enemies and now that horrifying thug, the one whose name was enough to shake his enemies to the core was stealing a pot.

Hahaha.

With a dreadful look on his face, Li Gang accepted his humiliation and then flew towards the house of the caretaker where he floated past the wall and then walked over to the small kitchen where he picked up the pot and then started walking towards the door but then he saw the old caretaker shiver and paused.

Li Gang was right, the old caretaker was up when he heard someone rummage in the cabinet of his kitchen at first he thought that it was the cat that roamed in the grounds of the graveyard but when he raised his head, he actually saw the bottles and jars flying around! And there was no one holding them, the old man was scared out of his wits which was why he immediately started chanting Buddhist scriptures but who would have thought that the hungry ghost will return again soon and this time he will steal his pot!

The old man loved the pot since it was new but he loved his life more which was when he saw the ghost taking the pot with him, the old man decided that he was going to stay put and not do anything at all! He was not going to make a peep! But just as he thought that he will stay as silent as he could, the chill in the room caused him to shiver and the thing behind seem to have paused because he could see the shadow of the pot on the wall opposite him!
