“Jason, I especially made two patients postpone their appointments today. Tell me, why are you urgently looking for me?” Adolphus asked a bearded man sitting in front of him in a horse-drawn carriage.

  Jason sighed, and said, “Yes, our dear Adolphus is the best ophthalmologist in Chaos City, and a very busy person. Even if I, your good friend, want to ask you out for a drink, I’ll have to book you half a month in advance, and have to go through a rigorous interrogation the moment you come on board.”


  “You’re just asking me out for a drink?” Adolphus frowned. “You should have told me earlier. I could finish up with those two patients before meeting you.”


  “The conditions of the last two patients aren’t even serious. I’ve asked about it for you. It’s fine even if they come tomorrow,” Jason said with a wave of his hand. “But if we’re late, we won’t get to drink.”


  “Don’t tell me the pub won’t let you enter?” Adolphus was in disbelief. He knew the family background of this friend he had grown up with. The other party had always been squandering money in pubs, and was the favorite customer of all pub owners.

  “Don’t think I’m lying. If we’re late, we really don’t get to go in. But it’s not because they don’t let you into the place; rather, it’s because there would be too many people in the line, and you won’t even get a turn,” Jason said with a smile.

  “Is there a pub that has such good business in Chaos City?”


  “Look, your wife has been keeping such a close eye on you that you’ve already become unaware of the recent happenings.” Jason glanced at Adolphus in disdain. “It’s not a pub, it’s a restaurant. Mamy Restaurant. Its business is the best in Chaos City. It has the best reputation. Haven’t heard of it, right?”


  “Mamy Restaurant? Haven’t heard of it.” Adolphus shook his head. He looked at Jason suspiciously, and said, “But didn’t you say before that those who drink in restaurants are fools, and you can only enjoy drinking in pubs?”


  “Ahem. That was back when I was young and ignorant. Who knew that a restaurant like Mamy Restaurant would come to exist?” Jason coughed to hide his embarrassment. After that, he said, “You have no idea. The food that Boss Mag makes is delicious. That spicy grilled fish is the best food to have with beer, and the kebab is also invincibly delicious.

  “Of course, the best part is still their beer. It’s cold and refreshing, totally thrashing all the pubs in Chaos City.

  “Don’t even mention the 15-year-old rum that they launched recently. Do you know who made the rum? It’s the father of rum, Old Sim! Oh my gosh! One glass only costs 1,000 copper coins. With every glass you drink, it’s one glass fewer.”


  “Master Old Sim’s 15-year-old rum?” Adolphus’s eyes lit up upon hearing that. Jason managed to win the bid for a bottle of Old Sim’s three-year-old rum in an auction the year before with a very high price, and he brought it to Adolphus’ house once to share it with him. To date, he still couldn’t forget its taste, so a restaurant selling a 15-year-old brew was just hard to imagine.

  “Yes. I wonder where Boss Mag got it from. Ever since Old Sim passed away, it’s almost impossible to find, even in the Falk Tribe.” Jason nodded.

  “It seems like this restaurant’s owner is not simple,” Adolphus said thoughtfully.

  “Of course he’s not simple. Boss Mag is simply invincible. Not only does he cook well, but he can even cure diseases.”


  “Oh, he’s a doctor?” Adolphus was shocked.

  “Not really a doctor. But I heard that the tofu pudding that he makes can make women’s skin become soft and glowy, and has a very good scar-fading effect. Even some of the old mercenaries were rid of all their old scars after eating the tofu pudding for around half a month. Their skin even became soft and fair.

  “And there were even some who started drawing scars on themselves recently so that the newbies wouldn’t laugh at them. A couple of days ago, I heard a few mercenaries sitting at the neighboring table talk about their little know-how while having tofu pudding,” Jason said with a chuckle.

  “Really?” Adolphus frowned. It sounded just like a scam where street artists would get actors to help them with their ploys. As a doctor, Adolphus hated such people. Not only did they cheat the patients of their money, they even caused the patients to delay their treatment.

  “It’s not just skincare. Mamy Restaurant even has a miraculous soup—the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’. Even if you’re a bald old man, once you drink that soup, your hair will start growing out again, and one bowl of soup only costs 10,000 copper coins.” Jason started getting excited. He looked at Adolphus, and suddenly smacked his forehead as he said, “Oh, right, yesterday, Boss Mag launched a new dish: the roasted pig’s eyes, and today some customers said that their eye problems got better after eating that dish. This afternoon, an old man even brought a young boy who had an eye disease to try the dish. I wonder if it’s effective. If it’s really effective, I’m afraid Boss Mag will start stealing your business.”


  Upon hearing that, Adolphus’s eyes widened, and even his voice got louder as he said, “Are you referring to a young boy around 10 years old who has an older sister of around 12 to 13?”


  “Hm, how do you know? Have they looked for you?” Jason was a little surprised.

  “That young boy’s eye disease is very strange and very serious, so even I don’t dare to treat it for him. I told them to look for someone better to help them,” Adolphus said with a grave expression. “But I can’t believe that the old man actually brought them to a restaurant to treat the disease. This is simply outrageous. Such a scam could only ruin the child’s eyes and future.”


  “I don’t think it’s as serious as you’ve said. Boss Mag is a good person, and wouldn’t scam anyone.” Jason saw Adolphus’s serious expression and stopped smiling. He asked with a little uncertainty, “Don’t tell me you’re going to create trouble?”


  “If he’s going to cheat patients in the name of using delicacies to treat illnesses, I’ll create all the trouble I can,” Adolphus said with resolution.

  “Hey, this is a restaurant that even the city lord patronizes. How is it possible that he’s a scam? You need to chill.” Jason was a little uneasy.

  “If he can even cheat a blind child, even if the city lord patronizes him, that doesn’t hide the fact that he’s a scam.” Adolphus looked at Jason. He calmed down, and said, “Don’t worry, I’m not an impulsive youngster. I will see how things go.”


  “Alright. But let me remind you, all these so-called healing effects were discovered by the customers themselves. Boss Mag had never and doesn’t have the need to use that as the selling point for his restaurant. He didn’t even increase the price of the dishes because of those healing effects. We’re just going there to drink the 15-year-old rum today. Remember what we’re going there for, alright?” Jason reminded the doctor.

  “Mm-hm.” Adolphus gave a perfunctory reply, but he was already certain that if he were to run into that young boy again, he had to bring the latter away. He had already brainstormed for the entire day, and there were a few methods that he could try. Even if the boy wasn’t able to completely regain his vision, at least it would curb the condition from going out of control.
