The Alien Seafood Diner

Li Qinglang inherits a seafood barbecue stall. Watching the oceans grow more polluted by the day, she'd already decided to close up shop. Then she unexpectedly gets swept away to an alien planet, into an ocean untouched by pollution. What? Salmon three meters long? Catch some. Sea urchins as big as basketballs? Catch some. Goose barnacles longer than her hand? Catch some. A certain seafood stall has recently become a sensation. The owner claims to have the freshest, healthiest, best seafood in the world. Even a three-Michelin-star restaurant might not dare say that. Countless netizens show up ready to challenge the place. Then they discover, to their shock: Isn't the person scalding disposable utensils with boiling water some world-famous billionaire? Isn't the person hunched over a plastic red stool, eating like there's no tomorrow, some top-tier star? Isn't the person shamelessly begging the owner for a partnership in the kitchen a top chef from Ginza? Those people showing up are one thing, but why are professors from the agricultural college coming in groups to ask the owner for advice on farming and business? Shocked, the netizens try a bite of the seafood the owner brings out. Holy crap? What kind of heavenly delicacy is this? I don't care if you're a top-tier star or a billionaire. Get in line! Nobody's stealing my seafood! * Later, countless terrifying monsters emerge from Earth's polluted oceans. Every country is filled with gloom, utterly helpless in the face of these monsters. Then one day, Li Qinglang, whose seafood-catching skills have reached godlike levels, happens to pass by. She casually captures a giant, thirty-six-legged mutant octopus alive. Every country: ??? Later still, the world's most famous seafood stall suddenly announces it's closing. Netizens at home and abroad wail in dismay, demanding to know why. Someone secretly takes a picture of the notice at the stall's entrance: This shop will be closed for seven days because the owner has to go save the world. The whole internet explodes.
