Chapter 64:The Cake Shop [1]

When I entered the cake shop, the sweet aroma of the countless pastries immediately flooded my nose, leading me to inadvertently glance at the variety of cakes contained in the display cases.

Turning to Astrid, I said.

"Distract the owner."

Still somewhat dazed by the rapid succession of events, Astrid nodded her head and headed to the counter to speak to the owner once again.

Surveying the room with my eyes, the first oddity I noticed was that there were barely 5 people in the entire bakery.

How was this place making a profit?

The 5 people seemed to be regular civilians as they simply ate their cakes while reading the newspaper.

Seeing Astrid completely distracting the owner and the others not caring about me, I stood in the center of the room, slowly turning in a circle while scrutinizing every corner.
