Chapter 1: Return to a relaxed daily life

Thick slices of whole wheat bread, pan-fried bacon, soft-boiled omelette on both sides, and fresh vegetables are arranged on top of the bread and served with red pepper sauce...... Ay? Red Pepper SauceRed Pepper Sauce...... Forget it, use ketchup instead, you can't see the red ones anyway. Then seal the bread on top. In the end, the knife cut them in two~~ into triangles.

Well, that's it, and that's it! The taste is inexpensive and takes a short time, which is perfect for rushing in the morning. It's great that two sandwiches can provide a morning's worth of energy. ――――BY Randy Orlando's breakfast making experience.

In all fairness, Randy is pretty good at cooking "food with simple workmanship, simple ingredients, and plenty of energy". In his words, it was because he would often make do in the field because of tasks, and over time, Randy also had an experience with these convenient dishes.

The sandwich looks simple, but as an early morning for office workers, it is quite qualified. None of the people in the support department complained, but Ellie was a little worried about whether this greasy and sour sandwich Tio and Hose would be able to get used to it.

You took a sandwich and put it in his mouth and moved to the kitchen.

"Hello? Youjun? What are you going to do? Randy sat in his chair, a curious detective necking out into the kitchen. As he spoke, he took a sandwich and swallowed the whole sandwich in three or five bites.

"Go get Rui ready early."

".................." Randy's expression suddenly collapsed, he pouted dissatisfiedly, and made a smack sound: "I said you, you're going to open a small stove anyway, just make our breakfast!" - Besides, I've made all the sandwiches and you go to cook, do you look down on my craft? ”

The sound of swimming came from the kitchen.

"She doesn't like greasy things like bacon and omelettes, and besides, she doesn't like sourness – I'll make a little more anyway, and that's fine."

You suddenly saw through Randy's purpose, this man was actually not dissatisfied or anything else, he just wanted You to do more, after all, his craftsmanship was also recognized as excellent by the Support Department.

Seeing that his purpose was revealed, Randy laughed stiffly twice, and picked up another sandwich and stuffed it into his mouth. Lloyd watched his companion play treasure angrily and funny, and shook his head helplessly.

After a while, You came out with a large plate of vegetable sandwiches.

For the sake of efficiency, you also chose sandwiches. However, his sandwich is topped with refreshing cabbage, onion rings and sliced tomatoes, and in order to adjust the taste, he touches a spoonful of condensed milk in the middle.

"Huh? Is it still a sandwich? Randy was a little disappointed, thinking that Yukai would do something earth-shattering, but it turned out to be just a sandwich - and judging by the price of the ingredients, it was even cheaper than Randy's......

"Girls like vegetarian food more than meat."

Lobbying, glancing at Ellie. Ellie nodded silently and took a piece from Yu's plate. Randy muttered sentences like "It's really troublesome" in pieces, and suddenly realized that he didn't seem to be alone. If women like vegetarian dishes......

"Lloyd, sure enough, you can understand me!"

Randy turns to the only male currently - as for Yu, he has been classified as a non-male by Randy. Lloyd smiled bitterly and ambiguously confused the topic: "It's better to finish eating quickly and determine today's support mission." ”

"Yes, yes...... Our captain, it's just too boring. ”

Randy said, getting up from his back in the chair, his arms moving his muscles to quickly recover from his slackness, and then walking towards the guide terminal with a sandwich in his mouth.

"It's not like there's no task!"

Randy glanced at the dark screen and took advantage of the situation to clinch his elbows on it, bracing himself up.

"Before using it, turn on the terminal......

Suddenly, a cold, emotionless voice interjected into the conversation of several people. Two small figures spun out from the yellowed torso of the wooden staircase. Ellie finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Lotus looked a little panicked, her arms and calves were still shaking unconsciously, but if she could come downstairs, it wouldn't be too much of a problem.

Lloyd thought more about letting young children like Theo and Hexu join the support department, but Lloyd still felt that he couldn't accept it: children should enjoy their childhood leisurely. In this sense, Lloyd did not even want them to stay with the Epstein Foundation.

Moreover, there are details that Ellie can notice, Lloyd can't notice for no reason. Although He Xu walked down the stairs recklessly, the uncoordinated body and unnaturally trembling limbs all revealed that their owners were in a panic at this time. This Lloyd will not ignore this, after all, when he was a child, after the death of his eldest brother, he was in this state for a long time.

"Now, Hexu, if ......"

Lloyd was about to speak, but Hexu immediately interrupted him.

"Hexu will stay here. Hoo will support you along with Theo. ”

Lloyd was speechless. He and Hexu are not related, and they only wanted to persuade her out of concern, but seeing that she has made up her mind, Lloyd will not finish such words again.

Let's discuss it with You after that. At least they should not be allowed to participate in dangerous activities.

After the episode, Theo took the vegetable sandwich that You handed over and walked towards the terminal. I saw that she pressed something on the keyboard, and the screen of the guide terminal suddenly lit up and turned blue. Randy startled and took a step backwards, just in time to make room for Theo to operate.

Tio continued to tap on the keyboard a few more times, and suddenly realized that he ............

"Ah, there's really no task today......"

Theo frowned strangely, and continued to tap on the keyboard, as if to confirm something. Randy laughed and smiled proudly, "Look, I'll just say there's no mission." ”

Theo ignored him. Although this situation is very pleasant, if you think about it, it is really unrealistic, why is there no mission all of a sudden? Theo retrieved yesterday's information records and found that there were more than fifteen support missions yesterday, some of which were sent from the guerrilla association, and were not counted. And each of these tasks is marked with the word "reported" at the end.

In the early hours of yesterday morning, the Support Section arrested two of Rubacher's men. Yesterday morning, the Support Section returned to the department building. Then, after staying up all night, the tired people went straight to rest. Missions are all completed by Yuki Tatsumi.

What makes Theo feel strange is not the completion of the mission, but the number of tasks that have been completed. Fifteen pieces, if it's just one person, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult, right? In particular, the support department is not well-known now, and the tasks I receive are all to find things, ask for overdue books and the like, and although it is simple, it requires you to run around. I did this alone, and I made a mission report with the operator Miss Fran with the terminal of the support section.

"Did Brother You handle the task alone yesterday?"

"Well, you're all sleeping soundly, and I'm too embarrassed to disturb you. I just dealt with some casually by myself, and talked to Miss Fran by the way. ”

As if thinking of last night's conversation, You's face suddenly flashed a little embarrassed, he left the center of the topic without a trace, and walked upstairs with a sandwich plate: "I'll send Rui breakfast." It's rare to have no job, so think of it as a vacation. ”

It's really high-speed, I really want to study the body of the big brother downstream...... Theo sighed inwardly, and a lot of inspiration for mad scientists popped up in his head.

"How can it be so leisurely......" Lloyd retorted casually. Even if there is no support mission, there is a long-term mission such as assisting in patrolling the city. After the mafia incident, Lloyd once again realized that he was not strong enough, and now he did not want to waste a moment - especially after wasting a whole day yesterday.

You smiled and went upstairs.

Back in the room, Rui was wearing a simple moon-white dress, with a mid-length skirt just down to the knee, a simple style, but with a light and elegant temperament. Coupled with Rui Dongfang's appearance, she is especially a beauty. The only fly in the ointment is that there is bright daylight shining through the window, wrapping Rui's whole person in the sun.

This is not a bad thing, but Rui and this dress are more suitable for moonshine. Indifferent and quiet without losing elegance, the sunlight is too strong, but it loses two points of temperament.

You put the sandwich on the table, racked his brains and thought about it for a while, and finally he was very convinced: 1. He had not bought Rui clothes other than a cheongsam. 2. There is no problem with my memory.

"Miss Lixia gave you?"

"Hmm...... She's been here yesterday...... The host just went out ......"

Rui's voice is still clear, and if this spring-like voice can be displayed in front of others, it will definitely become a singer sought after by thousands of people, right?

"I see." You nodded in understanding as he handed Rui a sandwich. Watching her hold a sandwich in both hands, nibbling on it in small bites, she felt as if she had raised a large hamster for no reason.

"Wait a minute, what is Miss Lixia doing here?"

You suddenly realized that the only people Lixia knew in the support department seemed to be him and Rui...... It can't be here to deliver clothes to Rui, right? Do you want to talk to me about the "industry"? Oh no, if that's the case, you'll have to contact her quickly.

Rui looked a little embarrassed.

Slaves are not allowed to know and not report, and if Rui can be so embarrassed, it will definitely be something that will embarrass Yu-Tatsumi.

"It's okay, I don't blame you. What is she here for? Yu's tone lightened again. Both of them were born as slaves, if it weren't for the extermination of the sword fighting group where You was located, I'm afraid that the current You is also a person like Rui, right? No, maybe he died in a "performance" a long time ago.

"Well, she's here to deliver the clothes...... This one of my ......"

Rui said intermittently, suddenly raising her voice, and holding the half-eaten sandwich in her mouth, the whole thing shrunk into a ball, for fear that Yuya Tatsumi would anger herself.

"Well, I won't blame you for this kind of thing."

You smiled and stroked Rui's hair, the timid slave who always worries about the unexpected.

"Not angry?"

"Why are you angry?"

"I didn't accept the ...... without the owner's consent."

"That kind of thing doesn't matter."

You smiled dumbly, obviously they have been together for so long, Rui still sticks to his status as a slave, and it is clear that You Tatsumi doesn't care about this at all.

However, Rui will open the door herself?

It's really an unimaginable development situation......

"Speaking of which, Lixia came to support the department, is she just here to deliver clothes?" You is a little incomprehensible, the relationship between Lixia and Rui is at most an ordinary friend, let's go, even if Lixia feels that Rui's background is pitiful, and gives her clothes, there is no need to come to the door once.

"That...... Miss Lixia asked me to bring you a message......"

"What?"

"The costumes for the show have been decided, please go and finalize them lately - if you don't come, Miss Elijah will help you decide."
