Recently, the restaurant staff of TPC's Far East headquarters have been unlucky for 18 lifetimes, and the intensity of preparing ingredients and cooking food every day has greatly increased. Everyone is working overtime and still can't meet the needs of a certain person in the headquarters, oh no, it's difficult to ensure that all the staff members have a meal.
So last night, Director Sawai in the office received a euphemistic suggestion letter from Mr. Harada, the director of the restaurant, that the work intensity of the staff in the headquarters restaurant has increased recently, and he hopes that the restaurant can recruit ten more employees in order to ensure the normal dining of all staff in the headquarters in a timely manner. This letter of suggestion can make Sakai a little confused, according to Sakai himself knows that there are a lot of employees in the headquarters restaurant, according to the headquarters restaurant 21 hours a day, the total number of restaurant employees divided into three shifts is more than 90 people. Hasn't the previous job always been normal and smooth? What's causing this problem of employees feeling too tired and needing to add assistants lately?
In order to figure out this strange problem, early in the morning, Sawai and his secretary, Miss Akiko, rushed to the largest restaurant in the headquarters to eat, ready to investigate this "big problem" that had plagued him all night.
Walking into the door of the restaurant, the staff I met along the way all stopped and greeted Sawai with respect. Sawai also responded one by one. Walking to a counter to pick up food, Sawai ordered a bowl of chicken porridge and two very ordinary sushi dishes, found a spare table with a plate, and sat down, waiting for Miss Akiko to sit down in front of her with her own breakfast. Sawai said to Akiko, "I think the restaurant is still relatively vacant now, how can there be a situation like Harada said?" ”
"Maybe it's not the peak of my colleagues' dining yet!" Akiko gave a guessing answer with a slight hesitation.
"It's possible, but ......, well, I'll observe again!" After saying that, Sawai began to enjoy his breakfast today.
"It's coming! Here it comes! That foodie is here! Sawai, who had just taken a sip of porridge, suddenly heard the whispers of the staff who were eating around him.
[What is coming?] Foodie? Could it be that kid Tianyun! Sawai also raised his head and looked in the direction of the others' gaze, not exceeding Sawai's own expectations, and it was really Tianyun, a well-known rice bucket-level foodie in the headquarters, who came to the restaurant.
Sakai smiled as he watched Tianyun shouting at the counter where he picked up the food, a cage of bean paste buns, three baskets of fresh meat buns, and a bowl of barbecued pork ramen and curry soup, "It's good to be young!" When I was younger, my appetite was as good as Tianyun! ”
"Director, are you sure that your appetite when you were young can be comparable to that of Tianyun and him?" Akiko swallowed a small wonton and looked at Sawai in disbelief.
"Hehe, that's not an analogy!"
"Yo he, good morning, old bean!" Holding a plate full of food, Tianyun's eyes widened and he found Sawai's table, "Ah! Akiko! You're early, too! With a thud, he placed the heavy plate on the table. Before Sawai and Akiko could respond, a bean paste bag had disappeared into Tianyun's "bloody mouth".
"Morning!" Watching the cheerful scene of Tianyun constantly devouring steamed buns with ramen, Sawai also felt that his appetite had become better, and he took a large mouthful of chicken porridge. "You woke up so early? Got a task? ”
"I don't have a task, and I wake up early! I just went to Chifeng Mountain and moved a meteorite back! Old beans! I've found that since the appearance of Tiga, there have been a lot more meteorites that have fallen to the size of the earth! "Tianyun uses his superb skills to eat and speak at the same time.
"Oh! Seems to be the case! In addition to our headquarters, branches in other continents have similar records. It must also be the impact of the recent great changes in the earth! Sawai thought about it and gave a more reliable answer. What information did you find out about the meteorite you moved back? ”
"No! Just came back, where is it possible to come to a conclusion so quickly? The kung fu buns and ramen noodles in these few words have all been reimbursed, "I'll go get some more food!" ”
There was another bang, and five or six large hamburgers and a bowl of curry rice and a large can of juice appeared in front of Sawai, "Speaking of Sawai old beans, why did you think of coming to the restaurant for breakfast today?" ”
"Can't you? Look at you young people with all your energy. Don't you notice that my appetite is much better? Sawai also picked up a hamburger and took a big bite of it. Well, this beef tastes really good! Akiko? Would you like to try one too? ”
"No need! Eat slowly! Majordomo! Akiko shook her head, picked up the cup, poured a glass of juice for Sawai, and handed it over.
"Oh! Thank you! Sawai thanked him, took the juice and took a big sip, "Actually, I'm here to investigate a problem at the restaurant." ”
"What's the problem?"
"The restaurant's director, Harada, wrote me a letter of suggestion and wanted to add a few more people to the restaurant. But when I came to eat today, I didn't think the restaurant was busy. Sawai watched as the restaurant, which was still relatively empty, slowed down the speed at which he could bite the burger.
"It turns out that Harada himself had this idea! I've mentioned it to him many times to ask for a few more people to help out at the restaurant, but he just won't listen. I knew that you would just look for Lao Dou directly! Tianyun swallowed the last bite of curry rice, picked up the glass bottle, and slurred all the juices, "It doesn't seem to be very full!" It's all to blame for consuming too much energy on today's mission! ”
Not long after, Tianyun put down three plates of fried noodles and a can of soy milk, "Look! I'll just say that the restaurant is not staffed! I originally wanted a steak and a cold noodle, but the chef there said they weren't there for the time being. Tianyun, who turned his grief and anger into appetite, picked up a large chopstick and swallowed the noodles in a big gulp.
"Chef, they need time too! However, it is not yet eight o'clock before the staple food is not available, and it really shouldn't be. Akiko, could you please go to the kitchen and ask why? Sawai glanced at Tianyun, who was eating heavily, and said to Akiko.
"Okay, Director!" Akiko got up, straightened her clothes and skirt, and walked towards the kitchen at the back of the restaurant.
When Akiko went to the kitchen to inquire about the reason, Tianyun came back with a bunch of various fruits from the pick-up counter, and in addition to several apples and raw pears, there was actually a football-sized watermelon. "You see, for the time being, you can only fill your stomach with fruit!" Tianyun raised his hand and slapped the watermelon, skillfully divided the watermelon into two halves of uniform size, and then bounced half of the watermelon a few times in a straight line, and several pieces of medium-sized watermelon were spread out on the dinner plate.
Sawai was also polite, took a piece of watermelon and nibbled on it.
"I said, old bean, are you okay with watermelon in the morning? If you have a bad stomach, it's easy to have diarrhea! ”
"It's okay! I only eat this small piece! Ah, Akiko, you're back! Did you find out what the reason was? Sawai asked when he saw Akiko who had already walked back.
"Uh, Director! I'll report back to you later! Akiko replied with some hesitation.
"Well fed today! Go ahead! It's better to solve this problem directly in the restaurant! Wiping his mouth with a tissue, Sawai patted his stomach and sat up straight with his back against the chair, waiting for Akiko's answer.
Seeing that he couldn't hide, Qiuzi glanced at Tianyun who was still in the watermelon pile with some embarrassment, "In fact, the main reason why the food in the restaurant can't be served in time is Tianyun!" ”
"Oh-? Although compared to ordinary people, Tianyun's appetite is indeed amazing. But until now, Tianyun has not been able to eat all the cold noodles and steaks! Sawai once again amusedly glanced at Tianyun who was snorting and nibbling on watermelon.
"Not now, but that doesn't mean there wasn't before!" Akiko explained.
"He's already here for breakfast?" Sawai came to such a conclusion from Akiko's answer.
"Well, yes. Majordomo! Chef Ohtanaka, the son of the old master Tanaka in the cafeteria, said that at about four o'clock this morning, Tianyun rushed into the back kitchen of the restaurant with the words of "going out on a mission", and swept away the cold noodles and other noodles prepared by the four of them. The steaming food you see in the morning is something they have made in a hurry in the last two hours. If it weren't for Tianyun's honest going to the warehouse to help carry the ingredients after completing the task himself, I'm afraid none of us would have thought about having a full breakfast before eight o'clock this morning. What's worse is that Tianyunjun has been eating a lot of food every day for several days! Qiuzi pointed to Tianyun and finished all the shocking news he heard in one breath.
After listening to Akiko's words, Sawai looked at Tianyun with a black line, "Good boy! At the end of the day, the lack of staff in the restaurant is a problem that you can do on your own, and it can even affect the dining of other colleagues. I mean, how the hell is your stomach? It's even more bottomless than a bottomless pit! ”
"If you don't have enough to eat, you won't have the strength to complete the mission, and failing to complete the mission can expose civilians to monsters and aliens. Therefore, the question of whether I Tianyun is full and well-fed is quite important! Tianyun raised his head stained with watermelon juice and replied with a straight face.
Sawai and Akiko watched helplessly as Tianyun kept shaking their heads. Ay! Sawai's already somewhat gray hair suddenly added a new strand of gray hair to his sideburns. It's really distressing to have such a super rice bucket-level foodie subordinate!
……
"Tianyun! Because you, a super foodie, have seriously disrupted the operation order of the headquarters restaurant, the director has given you two options. First, in the future, as long as you don't have a task, you have to volunteer to help in the back kitchen of the restaurant for three hours a day. The second option is to directly deduct half of your monthly salary in the future to offset the inconvenience you cause to the operation of the restaurant! Which option do you choose? A few hours later, Megumi Kuma, who was desperately holding back a smile in the headquarters room of the victory team, looked at Tianyun-san, who was sitting in front of her and being dealt with, with a serious face.
"Sister Captain! I don't want to choose any of them, is that okay? Tianyun raised his head and looked at Megumi with his most pitiful expression.
"What do you say?"
Hahaha!
"Look, I'm right! I've already said that I'm going to deduct Tianyun's salary to offset the loss of his massive consumption of base food! ”
"Lina! I hate you! The voice of grumbling resounded throughout the base, and from then on, endless resentment roamed the headquarters uncontrollably, even if humanity was destroyed, and the end of the world could not be eliminated.
