Chen Ze stood in the kitchen, feeling somewhat helpless. Although he had already explained that this was a restaurant and not a gathering place for exorcists or a Taoist temple, Li Xu seemed to have convinced himself otherwise and adamantly refused to leave.
"I won't go, I won't see that thing once I go out, and then I can only die, so please, save me," Li Xu pleaded with Chen Ze, a look of desperation on his face.
Humans can die from lack of sleep—sudden death—so staying up late is a bad habit, and Li Xu was thinking about resigning after a while.
Chen Ze rubbed his brow; Lafra had also gone out, saying there were some issues in the negative plane that she needed to deal with.
Chen Ze did think of several methods, the simplest of which was to use a Magic Circle to eliminate the gray shadow, so this guest could eat in peace, and then he could leave.
