"Because of the back-to-school prom?" Brutus understood immediately, but he couldn't hide his surprise.

Horgan didn't answer, but raised his chin and looked at Thunder Peters, who was not far behind him, without saying a word, with a dull expression that seemed to be angry, "So what's going on?"

Brutus didn't need to turn his head at all, he could immediately understand Holden's eyes, "Didn't you read today's paper?" ”

Agrini, the elder brother of Ray Peters, is now in the White Lions.

"Commander Ludwig led the legion to a great victory, and Argrini led a vanguard to make a great contribution and make the empire famous. It is rumored that the Legion is ready to apply for a medal for him, and if he is down, then Argrini will be comparable to Captain Ludwig, who is only twenty-five years old this year. ”

With a simple remark, Horden instantly understood and digested -

Commander Herman Ludwig is the youngest legion commander in the history of the Lea Empire, only twenty-eight years old, and he has led the legion to win great military exploits, not a rapid promotion through nepotism, completely step by step through military exploits to reach the current position, he has a super high popularity among commoners and young nobles.

Of course, the old-school nobles didn't like young people like Captain Ludwig, and they still supported the Black Lion Legion led by Wolfgang Winter, not only because Captain Winter represented the interests of the nobles, but also because Captain Winter was also the last top powerhouse in the empire to be promoted to a high-level psionic in recent years.

Now that Agrini is thriving in the White Lions, it is conceivable that the pressure on Thunderers' shoulders will increase exponentially.

No wonder Ray Peters is a little grumpy and dull today.

Brutus was already used to it, "Don't worry about him, he's used to it, a little adjustment, he'll recover." ”

Before Hoden could continue to speak, Brutus raised his right hand again and waved, calling out, "Robben." ”

Robben, who was leaving the classroom, looked a little reluctant, and was about to leave directly, but then he saw Hoden's turn and cast his gaze, and always felt that he was leaving like this, as if he had lost, so Robben moved his stiff steps and walked towards them.

"Ray and I don't have classes in the afternoon, what about you?" Brutus said aggressively, "If you have time, let's go to Orphels for lunch together, and after lunch, we will have afternoon tea together." ”

Brutus's cheeks revealed a hint of joy, and he took the initiative to lean over, "The latest version of the 'Spirit Master Chess' I purchased has finally arrived today. Well, would you be interested in playing two games with me?"

Lingshi chess is a new chess and card game that has risen rapidly in the past two years, completely breaking the rules of traditional chess, presenting a completely different game style, with endless cards and flexible tactics that are absolutely brain-burning;

Not only is it very popular among the aristocracy, but it is also in full swing in cities like Iwabuchi where young college students gather, and there are even many interest clubs for spirit master chess.

Even outsiders like Horden have heard of the great name of Spirit Master Chess, let alone natives like Brutus and Robben.

It can be clearly felt that Robben's eyes lit up slightly, and he also showed a little interest.

Brutus could also sense Robben's excitement, so he didn't say anything more, and just made a decision, "Then it's decided." ”

During the ordinary and short lunchtime, when the other students were honestly eating in the cafeteria, a group of four people rushed towards Ophels, even if it was a long journey, it was not too troublesome, and it was famous, "Food needs a little time and a little distance to test."

And, of course, afternoon tea.

When I arrived at "a restaurant", I didn't see the owner Pugs Settin, and I still didn't see any customers, it seemed that even the flies were not very happy to come, and the chef Cox Afvi waited pitifully for the empty restaurant, with a lonely expression like Joya who was alone in the empty boudoir, but all his skills could not be used, and his drooping shoulders revealed a sense of grievance.

Howlen strongly suspects that Puggs is a rich second generation, otherwise the restaurant business is so bad that it hasn't closed its doors yet?

After going around and going through today's ingredients, Hordon took the initiative to propose Cox an innovative proposal to cook a meal of "dried prune pot".

Although the dried plum pot is a hidden delicacy in the "Three Cripples" bar, the recipe itself is not an exclusive secret recipe of Guzmin, and it is well-known among the people of Iwabuchi, but it is not easy to cook, and it does not quite fit the eating habits of Iwabuchi, so it has not been able to spread widely.

Cox adjusted the recipe for the dried sea prune pot according to the existing ingredients, and then Hodden came up with a wonderful plan to pair it with snow deer, which burst out with different whimsical ideas.

It seems simple but is actually complicated, a dish that tests skill and seasoning, and has successfully won unanimous praise from everyone, even Robben.

Brutus is full of praise, "The fatness of the meat, the sweetness and sourness of the sauce, the freshness of the vegetables, and the sweetness that remains on the taste buds to delay the effect, the layers are complex but extremely clear, obviously it is simple and simple, but it can have an endless aftertaste, which is definitely fragrant." ”

"Goddess Ogy, how come I've never found this dish before?" Brutus couldn't believe his radar had missed it.

Raypeters touched his round belly, leaned back in his chair with a sleepy expression, and tried his best to keep his spine raised, Shi Shiran gave the answer, "That's because you haven't met Holden before." ”

After a full meal and wine, Thunder Peters' expression was visibly relaxed, as if he was finally able to temporarily unload the heavy burden on his shoulders and take a moment of respite.

Robben's expression also relaxed a little.

"There's nothing in this world that can't be solved with a good meal, and if one meal doesn't work, add dessert. ”

This is a rule of belief that Horgan follows, and it is even more effective to share it with like-minded friends.

At this time, Holden also showed a satisfied look, "Cox, what other options are there for dessert? Why don't we taste a pot of January embers, and then have afternoon tea here." ”

At this point, it would be too much trouble to go to the Crowe store. Too lazy to walk.

Ray Peters grimaced: Afternoon tea should be in the Barrow store, how can you enjoy afternoon tea in a restaurant?

But Brutus did not object, and nodded in agreement in place of Thunder Peters, "Of course, this could not be better. We can also take a look at Cox's dessert making. ”

Thunder Peters hesitated for a moment, but finally did not object.
