"Hei Zi, which direction do you smell it from?" Anselm asked the middle-aged hunter, his expression slightly excited. The other hunters had similar expressions, looking at him expectantly.
"Here, here, and here... they're all here." The hunter called Hei Zi pointed to the left, then to the right, and finally to the square, speaking earnestly.
"Nonsense, you might as well say they're in the sky." Anselm slapped him on the head, somewhat annoyed.
"Boss, they really are everywhere, and judging from the remaining scents, it shouldn't have been long, which means they are very likely still in this area." Hei Zi said somewhat aggrievedly.
"Yes, someone go and memorize this list, and we'll go find them one by one according to the rankings." Anselm nodded and said.
"This..." Everyone's faces immediately showed difficulty. Asking them to memorize these things was simply asking too much trouble.
"Boss, this looks like the top 100 restaurants on the list, and the order is exactly the same as here. We can go to each one one by one according to this list. I think they are very likely to eat according to this list as well." At this moment, the youngest hunter took a gold and red paper from the ballot box next to him. It listed a list of restaurants and also marked the addresses in detail.
"Alright, let's follow this list. Keep your eyes peeled." Anselm nodded, waved his hand, and walked toward the first Dukas Restaurant.
"Captain, those guys look a bit suspicious." Not far away, Monkey whispered to Bazel as he watched the hunters leading their horses away.
"Yes, that guy just now had murderous intent towards a woman." Bazel's expression was also somewhat solemn. Those guys just now made him instinctively feel a bloodthirsty threat, a situation that only occurs in people who have been living on the edge for many years.
Moreover, these guys are definitely not weak, especially that big bearded man, whose strength is probably even greater than his. They must have just arrived in Chaos City.
These people who came to Chaos City for the first time were the subjects of the Gray Temple's surveillance, because the order of Chaos City was different from that of the rest of the Nolan Continent. Even in a city like Luo Du, which was known for its good order, the crime rate was more than ten times that of Chaos City, and murder was commonplace.
But things are different in Chaos City. If you violate the laws of Chaos City, no matter who you are, Chaos City will never ignore it.
Those guys just now showed signs of intending to kill someone in the street, this is a dangerous sign, and they need to be vigilant.
"Monkey, go and keep watch over the Restaurant Mai Mi. When Lord Brandley comes out, report this to him. Although they haven't done anything outrageous yet, but they are enough to be considered a dangerous target and need to be monitored." Bazel said solemnly.
"Yes!" Monkey replied, trotting towards the direction of the Restaurant Mai Mi. If they were dangerous targets, it meant their strength had reached level five or higher and they possessed a high degree of instability. For such targets to appear in a densely populated area like Aden Square was no small matter.

"Boss Mai, remember to come pick Amy up early this evening." Crassus said to Mai Ge after settling the bill.
"Okay." Mai Ge nodded. Crassus had told him that morning that he had something to do and couldn't take Amy home.
"Goodbye, Master Half Beard." Amy waved to Crassus.
"Goodbye, Little Amy." Crassus smiled and nodded, then turned and left the restaurant.
The restaurant's lunchtime hours were spent in a flurry of activity. After seeing off the last customer, Mai Ge looked at Sally and asked with a smile, "How many slips were distributed at noon?"
"I distributed 380 slips at noon." Sally replied, counting the remaining slips in her hand. Her expression was calm, but her eyes were still somewhat excited. After all, these were slips that she had distributed, and they would determine whether the restaurant's food could make it onto the food ranking list.
"As expected, two thousand slips are not enough. I estimate we can send out more than half of them today." Mai Ge nodded without much surprise. The business hours at noon are half an hour longer than in the morning, so there will be more customers, while there will be even more in the evening.
"Boss, I think all the food you make should be in the top ten. There's nothing that tastes better than what you make." Yabemia said sincerely to Mai Ge.
"Getting into the top ten is no easy feat." Mai Ge shook his head with a smile. The foot traffic at Aden Square is even more exaggerated than that of Chunxi Road in Chengdu during holidays. Restaurants that can make it into the top ten are all quite large, and issuing several thousand slips a day is definitely not a difficult task. Moreover, some dishes at high-end restaurants are more expensive than those at Restaurant Mai Mi, so getting into the top ten is by no means easy.
However, Mai Ge wasn't too concerned about this. After all, the system's task was simply to get one dish into the top thirty, and at the current pace, that should be achievable. Mai Ge vaguely felt that the system would release more tasks related to the food rankings in the future, so he needed to control his ranking. If he jumped too high on the first try, that damn system might just throw out a task to get him first place on the rankings, which wouldn't be fun at all.
"I think Daddy's cooking should be ranked first, it's just too delicious." Amy said earnestly to Mai Ge.
"I'll be number one someday." Mai Ge smiled, patted Amy's head, then picked her up and said with a smile, "Alright, go take a nap. Daddy will take you to class later."
"Okay." Amy obediently nestled on Mai Ge's shoulder and closed her eyes.
"Meow meow." The Ugly Duckling scratched Mai Ge's pant leg, looking at him pitifully, afraid of being abandoned.
"Then you can go to sleep too." Mai Ge squatted down and scooped up the Ugly Duckling. He looked at Yabemia and Sally and said with a smile, "Then I'll leave the finishing work to you. If you're tired, you can rest for a while before you start working."
"Okay." Sally and Yabemia nodded simultaneously, watching Mai Ge go upstairs.
"Aisha, you did even better at noon! You've improved so much!" Yabemia said to Sally with a smile, giving her a thumbs up.
"You did much better than me. I still have a lot to learn." Aisha said modestly, though her eyes still held a hint of happiness.
When Mai Ge led Amy downstairs, the restaurant looked brand new. Sally was gone, and Yabemia was asleep on the table.
"Shh, let Mia sleep a little longer. Let's go out quietly. she works very hard." Mai Ge whispered, picking up his bicycle and taking Amy out the door.
"Okay." Amy nodded obediently, giving the Ugly Duckling a warning look before not waking Mia.
Mai Ge rode his bicycle with Amy in the direction of Chaos Academy. It was past lunchtime, so there were fewer pedestrians on the road. If he rode slowly, the bicycle could pass smoothly, but he attracted a lot of attention along the way.
"That father and daughter?" On the second floor of a teahouse in the distance, Elizabeth, still dressed in a snow-white high-necked long dress, looked at Mai Ge and his daughter riding the bicycle past below with a hint of surprise on her face. She had seen them once at the city gate that day and still remembered them.
