Chapter 44: Black Tea
The setting sun shines on the mist-filled research institute campus. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The water vapor accumulated into a thick misty gray and white wall, and the oblique light that could not be seen reflected indiscriminately reflected inside, dyed nearly half of the forest research institute building, which covers several hectares, orange-red.
The other half is shrouded in the deep shadows of the four tallest quadrangular buildings in the center of the park.
Crado said that the institute is located on flat land at an altitude of 2,500 meters, and relies on the natural climate to hide its secrets.
The institute campus is surrounded by mountains. It is very rare for the flat hinterland built for the research institute to occur in the mountains. Therefore, it is reasonable to infer that the terrain did not form naturally.
There is a kind of behemoth-class (more than 100 tons heavy) beast Yumu, whose hard teeth and burning heat in the mouth can cut through the rock and flatten the mountain. Therefore, this flat land is the empty table left behind after they have eaten.
It has been improved into a mini version, which often appears in the homes of the rich and noble due to its different uses. I also have one in my house, and it's the Gollum Beast that Neri uses to make tea...... Alas, I even remembered the cup of black tea that I didn't finish drinking.
Even though the sense of taste has changed, can you still taste the sweet aroma? If it's just for pretence, Neri will be sad and angry at my frivolity. Satisfying my taste buds will become her new challenge.
…… And when did that imaginary picture become reality?
I'm not expecting that.
Clador conveyed a notice from the Schödding family that the weather was not good and the helicopter would not be able to take off, and that it would take a while to welcome me away.
I'm going to spend the night here tonight, and I'm going to see Buzz tomorrow.
Klado is actually a good person, but also a powerful person. She can also hold the Royal Coat, indicating that she has passed the Queen's fair examination to be eligible to continue holding.
Just now, Klado came to my door and found that the dormitory I had been assigned was an old dormitory that was ready to be renovated. Ignoring the discriminatory and prejudiced eyes of the other staff, she immediately arranged a room for me.
It was a glittering bedroom, where Empress Clark had slept overnight.
The four corners of the door are covered with delicate golden vines, and the first thing that catches my eye is the expensive and shiny furniture in the living room.
I took off my borrowed visitor shoes and stepped over the threshold with my little feet in white socks. When you step on the mat, the comfortable soft touch comes immediately, and it seems that the mood has softened unconsciously.
Clado and I parted ways in the hallway and entered the upscale room alone.
Walking through the burgundy carpet, you can smell the charming aroma of cypress wood from the low table on the left side of the living room, and turn your head to the right to see the second-generation tissue paper cotton fish TV with more elaborate workmanship. Those things that have come into view are gradually reviving the sense of luxury that used to be in the mansion of Xerdinger.
I picked up the red wine from the cabinet next to the TV - although the Schödinger mansion was more advanced, I was not picky when I thought about the devastated home, whether the cellar was safe, and now I had in my hand my favorite drink other than tea...... Well, let's stop drinking, as soon as I relax, I forget about it, my senses have changed, and I need to find a new taste for food.
A few days ago in the Natural Beast Forest, I had to gamble my life every moment. Once you get back to the comfort of the environment, it will take time to get used to it. In the past, it took me a whole month to get used to the daily conveniences of the Calamity Heavenly Beast, and although I was able to experience it a little faster this time, such a period, no matter how long or short, was just as distressing.
I sighed, my mind still hanging in the bottom of my mind.
I walked into the single bedroom and was shocked to see the furniture that was too unique.
The edges and textures of the sheets are sewn with a lot of lace, and the background color is large pink. Will I have a sense of ambivalence that is suitable for a 12-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy?
"Purr, Purr, Ah, it's the master. You look at it, you look at it, it's fun. 」
I was wondering if there was something missing around me that seemed unsteady, and the noise of orange stripes that I hadn't heard for more than half a day filled the hole.
I retrieved my identity, and the little guy was applied by me as a portable mini pet for relaxation and entertainment with the right of an A-class capable person, so that he could not be sent to dissect as an experimental subject.
Because pets can't enter the research institute, I used the identity of the princess to order Xiaohong Carbon to be on standby in the old staff dormitory. I don't know how Klado, who changed my room, persuaded him to move here and wait for me
The pink mesh bedspread hung high in the corner of the bed, and the slender body of the little red carbon was stuck in the folds, giggling like a slide. Little Red Carbon completed its final downhill dive, flapping in the air and landing steadily upright on the overly patterned carpet.
Its long drive resembles spring compression, and it springs nimbly into a small family refrigerator covered in heart-shaped stickers.
"Lulu, master, master, there is a big human female who said that the refrigerator here is stocked with a lot of delicious food, and suggested that I come and get some for the master, but since the master himself is here. Bother the owner to enjoy the lur directly. 」
Little Red Carbon tightened her body as an iron pipe, pried open the door, and uncovered the seemingly more delicious ingredients illuminated by the display lamp.
I ignored it.
I jumped out of bed and picked up the multi-control remote control to turn down the air conditioner, and looked at another tissue paper fish TV hanging on the wall of my bedroom, enjoying the ultra-natural colors of the program.
News.
Yes, that's the point.
I became the heir to a big business, and it was impossible to go without being connected to the outside world for more than a week like I am now. Although it is a pleasure to return to some aspects of "natural life", the "sense of mastery" of having world information in hand is not something that can be quit all at once.
The old staff dormitory who stayed overnight last night is still using an antique-grade cathode ray tube monitor. The moisture corroded the parts so old that they could only appear in black and white flashing images, and the loudspeaker was completely broken to be heard.
This new TV monitor works really well, and I can switch to the channel I specified in one click. The broadcast of the news brought familiar relaxation, and the content of the report was really focused on Xue Dinger Enterprise, one of the giant businessmen of the four parties.
