My Restaurant's Guests are All Abnormal Chapter 572 - 432 We Still Don’t Know the Name of the Flower

"Manager, you seem really excited today," Betty curiously looked at Chen Ze. He was shaking his leg while she cleaned, and he was still doing it even after she finished.

"Yeah, I am pretty excited," Chen Ze nodded, feeling an urgent desire for tomorrow to co quicker. He knew it was impossible, but he still hoped for it fervently.

"Eh?" Betty blinked in surprise. The manager actually admitted it?

"Betty, how are the cola sales going?" Chen Ze asked while cutting pork.

"They’re great, hehe, Alisa said the cola you gave to sell might not last even three days," Betty boasted. She was right; the cola, sothing that doesn’t exist in the positive or negative planes, caused quite the sensation as soon as it hit the market.

However, there were also so troubleso issues that arose.

"But, Manager, can you help think of a solution?" Betty thought of the issues Alisa reminded her about; indeed, it was a serious problem if it couldn’t be solved.

"What kind of solution?" Chen Ze threw the pork chop into the curry, starting to marinate it. Now, the curry pork chop was essentially the restaurant’s signature dish, so it was quite important to make it well.

"It’s the cola. Although we get it directly from you, there are many alchemists in our area, so there’s a chance they might reverse engineer it and produce counterfeit products..." Betty looked sowhat dejected. Hamburgers and sandwiches already had knock-offs being sold in areas the rchants couldn’t reach, where counterfeit shops were thriving.

"What’s the cost? How does it compare to our cola?" Chen Ze was a bit curious, but regardless, even if there were knock-offs, they had to be cheaper to make sense. If the counterfeit cost more than the original, that would be a huge loss.

"They’re fifty copper coins more expensive than our cola," Betty rembered well what Alisa had told her.

"Then there’s no issue. You guys could also create an alternate world version of cola. It’s unrealistic to rely solely on supplies from here," Chen Ze rolled his eyes. Even with the Space Ring’s help, frequently buying cola in bulk was a bit troubleso for him.

"But if others make knock-offs, they’ll take away our market share," Betty was sowhat anxious, even ntioning the words "market share."

"Then why don’t you partner up with Hastur or Nyarlathotep? Offer them so profit, and then let Them protect your industry," Chen Ze was sowhat speechless. Didn’t they think of other custors from this place? Even though Lafra could speak as well, her deterrence was nowhere close to these two. If Hastur and Nyarlathotep took a stand.

Nobody would dare to infringe, and the term "pulling out a tiger’s fang" couldn’t even describe the risk of such an action. Probably even the Pope would have to keep silent about it.

"Eh? Can we really do that?" Betty scratched her head.

"Of course," Chen Ze nodded, seemingly unimpressed with the level of business warfare in this other world.

"Can you save nma, please?" A voice pleaded urgently.

Chen Ze stopped in his tracks, placed the kitchen knife aside, and realized the inevitable day had arrived.

Chen Ze wiped his hands and went out to see Suki Umita carrying the sowhat translucent nma into the place, desperately holding Betty’s hand and looking imploring.

Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day, the ani’s fa naturally needs no further ntion. As a seasoned mber of the ani community, virtually everyone knows it, and it’s ntioned in most videos that list sad and tear-jerking ani.

And within it, a pivotal mont is nma’s impending disappearance, or rather, her reaching nirvana.

Before seeing Suki Umita, Chen Ze already knew that this day was bound to co, although he didn’t understand why Suki Umita hadn’t co during this ti, Chen Ze knew he would think of him.

"Store Manager Uncle!" Suki Umita looked at Chen Ze, his eyes instantly reddened.

"If you have ti to cry, why don’t you help nma fulfill her wish?" Chen Ze looked at Suki Umita and calmly asked.

"I..." Suki Umita was stunned for a mont. He wanted to say that he had been helping nma fulfill her wish, but he just couldn’t bring himself to say it.

Perhaps deep down, while not believing, he also longed to always be with nma like this?

"However, once her wish is fulfilled, nma also has to beco enlightened," Chen Ze said, looking at the white-haired girl behind Suki Umita, feeling sowhat conflicted inside.

He still rembered when he first watched "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day," Chen Ze had been emotionless until the final episode of the ani, where watching Suki Umita and the others crying and breaking down, thinking back on all the foreshadowing, Chen Ze broke into tears.

So, Chen Ze initially didn’t quite understand why nma was so eager to have Suki Umita fulfill her wish and beco enlightened, claiming it was so they could continue to play together, but if nma really reincarnated, wouldn’t she lose her mories from her previous life?

Besides, finding one’s childhood friends who have grown into adults is a very troubleso matter.

Thus, Chen Ze had thought, if nma never beca enlightened, couldn’t she stay with her childhood friends forever?

Although later on, with the explanation of a fellow old-ti ani fan, he understood the aning of the series: letting go of the past, growing towards the future, and nding regrets, yet Chen Ze still couldn’t get over it for a long ti.

"To beco enlightened..." said Suki Umita, lowering his head.

"To be enlightened, huh, then you will never ever see nma again," Chen Ze said with a smile, looking at Suki Umita, the proud boy, a single sentence, a single decision, easily destroying a girl’s lifeti.

"nma..." nma lifted her head, smiling at Suki Umita, who looked lost.

"We can’t keep dragging this on," nma said, looking at Suki Umita, with tears shimring in her eyes, though she didn’t want to tell Suki Umita this; the energy of a spiritual body was indeed becoming weaker.

Chen Ze watched this scene unfold and thought of sothing Black and White Impermanence had given him before, the Soul Sphere, said to have the ability to help souls. If given to nma, it should be enough for her to continue on like this for a very long ti as a spiritual body, right?

But Chen Ze didn’t speak. If there wasn’t the stimulus of nma’s possible disappearance, perhaps Suki Umita wouldn’t know how long it would take to fulfill nma’s wish.

"nma..." Suki Umita’s eyes were terrifyingly red, his body trembling.

"Store Manager Uncle, do you have salt ran with egg drop here?" Suki Umita looked up at Chen Ze, revealing a bitter smile.

"Yes." Chen Ze nodded, then glared at Betty with a warning look.

Seeing Betty with reddened eyes, he knew she must have been reminded of "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day."
