Stove God Worshipping

The three familiar Constructs soon left after you paid with the coins found in the arcade.

But no matter how hard you try, you cannot seem to paste the couplets on the door frame. It is already your fifth attempt.

As you reach to the sticky tape, someone hands it over in advance.

I'm back, Commandant.

Lucia stands behind you with shopping bags in her hands.

Glad to be back.

The fifth attempt also failed. The tapes completely disappeared before even adhering.

The last challenge only started when you entered the yard. These couplets probably need to be used at the right location to unlock the corresponding trial.

Lee said there were some spices missing and went to the next street alone.

He should be back soon.

You put the couplets away and bring the ingredients inside the building. After telling Liv about the couplets and Lee's words, three of you wait together for him to return.

4 hours later...

I think I should go find him.

I'll go with you.

As they stand up, you hear the familiar knocking sound on the door.

Knock-knock

This guy was lost. Is he one of yours?

I just happened to be there by coincidence.

Just happened to walk to the city border? There is no road over there.

...

You've got the wrong person. I am "Patrol".

But I don't blame you. I seldom show up in front of people.

Anyway, I've got to go. Don't let him go out alone next time.

"Patrol" waved and left.

Welcome back, Lee.

Welcome back, Lee.

Where are the spices?

...

I'll be right back.

Umm...

Lee must be tired after all that walking. I'll do it.

Can we really leave this to Lucia?

After Liv has come back—

I will take care of the dinner.

I'll help too.

Commandant, you can take a rest in the living room. The kitchen can't fit so many of us.

Since Lucia has already said so, you can only let her do it. Before two of them enter the kitchen, you cannot help but open your mouth again—

Don't worry, Commandant.

I won't put too many spices like last time.

I will do my best to help Lucia.

Boom

Right after your words, a loud explosion comes from the kitchen.

...The fire extinguisher is over there.
