Both Angela and Lin Fan sent their spiritual sense out to investigate this door, but they couldn't find anything strange with it. The only thing that they could tell was that this was just a simple wooden door, nothing else.
But what they couldn't understand was why someone had just left a wooden door standing in the alley.
Song Shu was much less cautious compared to the two of them. As a child, she naturally had the curiosity of a child, so she moved forward to come in front of the door before moving around the door, looking it up and down.
She too couldn't find anything strange about it, it seemed like this was just a random door that was placed in this alley for some unknown reason.
Finally, their curiosity got the best of them and they all moved forward until they were just standing in front of the door.
After hesitating a bit, Lin Fan reached out to put his hand on the handle and after a pause, he pulled down on it.
The moment he did pull down on the handle of the door, both Angela and Lin Fan suddenly knit their brows. There was a sensation that was familiar to both of them that filled the space around them.
It was spatial laws!
As the door slowly opened, there was the tingling sound of a bell that rang out before someone shouted, "Welcome to the Between World Restaurant!"
The scene that appeared in front of them completely stunned them.
It wasn't the scene of a cultivation world, but rather what appeared in front of them was a modern diner.
Lin Fan couldn't believe what had just happened, he almost thought that he had transmigrated back to earth, but then he saw that Angela and Song Shu were with him.
The waitress who had called out to welcome them saw that they were stunned, but she wasn't surprised as she came over with a smile, "Welcome, is this your first time?"
Only then did the three of them turn to look at the waitress and they were shocked once again by what they saw. This waitress had black hair, black eyes, and a black dress. The only part of her that wasn't black was her pure white skin that was like fresh snow on the ground.
But it wasn't her appearance that shocked her, but rather the power that came from her.
Lin Fan could tell that she was far more powerful than he was, even Angela could tell that she was more powerful than her.
As for Song Shu, she was too weak, so she was just shocked by her appearance. This was her first time seeing someone who was even more beautiful than Angela.
The waitress saw that the three of them were just staring at her in a daze and she revealed a faint smile as she said, "How about I get you set up at a table and you can slowly look over the menu?"
Lin Fan was the first to react while Angela was still trying to probe this waitress with her spiritual sense. He cautiously asked, "Menu, are you telling me that this is a restaurant?"
The waitress just said with a smile, "Of course, what else would it be?"
Lin Fan then asked, "Why did you put your restaurant door in the middle of an alley?"
The waitress was a bit confused as she said, "Middle of the alley? Just which door did you come from?"
It was Lin Fan's turn to be confused when he heard this, "Which door? You mean that there are multiple doors in the middle of alleys?"
At this time, there was a man in a chef's outfit that came out of the back with a plate of food in his hand. After he put it in front of a customer who was actually a lizard man, he came over to the waitress in black and asked, "Yomi, what's taking so long? There's a bunch of plates in the back that I need your help with."
The waitress named Yomi said, "Lin Fan, there's some new customers here that I'm helping to their seats, but it seems like they're more confused than usual."
The man in the chef's outfit named Lin Fan turned to look at Lin Fan's group and the moment he did, his eyes opened a bit wider. It was the same for the Lin Fan that had just come into the restaurant.
When the two of them looked at each other, they noticed that other than a few differences, they basically had the same face.
It was only at this time that the girls had also noticed this and they began looking back and forth between the two Lin Fans.
Finally Yomi was the one who broke the silence and pointed at the Lin Fan who had come in as she asked the Lin Fan in the chef's outfit, "Is he your doppelganger?"
But before the chef Lin Fan could answer, the cultivation world Lin Fan asked, "Doppelganger? Is this earth?"
The chef Lin Fan ignored Yomi as he said, "Yes, this is earth. Is the world that you come from also earth?"
Cultivation world Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Not exactly." Then after a pause, he went on to ask, "Is the Lin Group doing well?"
The chef Lin Fan was confused when he heard this, "Lin Group, what do you mean by Lin Group?"
Cultivation world Lin Fan was confused too as he asked, "The Lin Group, the biggest company in the entire world that controls 70% of the world's finances? Does it not exist in this world?"
The chef Lin Fan shook his head, "I have no idea what you're talking about, there's no Lin Group in this world."
Cultivation world Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised as he asked, "Then what about your family, what does your family do?"
The chef Lin Fan paused for a second before asking, "Dear customer, don't you think that this is a little too forward?"
Cultivation world Lin Fan realized this mistake and calmed down as he said, "I'm sorry, I was just a little too excited."
The chef Lin Fan just gave a nod before saying, "How about you take a seat and have a look at the menu. I can't guarantee much, but I can at least guarantee that my food tastes good."
Cultivation world Lin Fan nodded before letting Yomi lead them to their seats.
After they were seated, Lin Fan looked over the menu and saw that it was filled with all the foods that he was familiar with in his original world. Lin Fan quickly looked over it and chose a few of his favourites, placing the order with Yomi.
While they were waiting for their food, Lin Fan looked off in a daze at the small television that was in the top hand corner of the room. At the same time, Angela and Song Shu looked at him with curious gazes.
There were many things that they felt were strange after they had come through this door to this restaurant. There were many things that Lin Fan said that they couldn't understand at all and Lin Fan seemed quite familiar with this world.
But they could also see that he clearly didn't want to talk about it as he just sat there in a daze, so neither of them said a thing.
Lin Fan through watching the programming on the television could see that this world was similar to his earth, but there were still a few things that were different. The best way to describe this world would be as a parallel world to his original earth.
After a while of staring at the television, Lin Fan couldn't help turning his gaze back to the chef Lin Fan through the window to the kitchen and he saw that the chef Lin Fan had also been looking in his direction.
Both of them gave each other a smile before they quickly turned away.
What Lin Fan didn't know was that the chef Lin Fan had also been talking about him with Yomi in the back.
It didn't take long for their food to be prepared and when it was brought in front of them, Lin Fan's eyes lit up. It had really been too long since he had food that he was familiar with.
While the Blue Star Planet did have its own food culture, it wasn't as developed as it had been on earth.
The main problem was that they focused on staple grains with a lack of farming land, so that meant that there was also a lack of oil crops which meant that rarely would oil be used to fry things.
Seeing all the deep fried Japanese styled food placed in front of him, Lin Fan didn't hesitate as he dug in.
Angela and Song Shu who were big foodies to begin with naturally didn't need an invitation as they began digging in themselves.
It didn't take them long to finish off all the food that they had finished and once they did, they immediately ordered seconds.
It took them a while to finish their meal, but when they did, they were completely satisfied with their meal. But then came the problem of how would they pay for it?
They found that they could actually pay with the currency of their Blue Star Planet and it was actually quite cheap, only costing a single crystal. Lin Fan even received change back for this crystal.
When Lin Fan received his change, he couldn't help asking, "Could I get my change in RMB?"
Yomi, who was handling the register was surprised, but then she took out RMB for Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked at the bill and found that it was completely different from the one that he was used to.
As they were leaving, Yomi didn't forget to explain with a smile, "This door of ours likes to appear randomly, but it locks onto a person once they open it. It should appear again in a few more days, so please feel free to come back to our store any time."
Lin Fan nodded before leading his group back, but what he didn't know was that this would be the last time that he would ever come to this store since the door never appeared again.
As for why it had appeared this time, it was a complete mystery. Still it had been a chance for him to get some nostalgic food from his previous world, so there was no regret on his part.
What neither he nor the chef Lin Fan knew was that this meeting between them had serious implications for the future...
