【17:55】

By the time You Tatsumi left Kia's house, it was getting late, and the colors of dusk were getting thicker and thicker, dyed with a little heavy ink.

Looking at the scenery outside the window, You Chensi suddenly remembered the first half of his life.

One of the few amusements of the slaves in Saiaʹaʻi was counting the stars through the lattice of the bars.

It was a simple and easily satisfying time.

If you lose the battle, you will die. If you win the battle, you will have food. When you have food to eat, you are happy. If you are alive, you will be happy. Happiness is such a simple thing.

When you are still a slave, it is enough to simply think about killing someone else, or being killed by someone else.

You Tatsumi suddenly felt that he was very lucky. Not only happy, but also lucky. Gain salvation as you get used to being a slave and spend your life as a slave fighter.

After that, I met the longed-for target and a gentle family. After that, there are kind companions and junior with magical powers.

"I ...... It's really blessed. ”

Suddenly, such a sentence came out, and You turned around and beckoned to the big boy standing behind him.

"You're right, Lloyd."

“…… Good evening. ”

Not knowing what he was thinking, Lloyd chose the least likely way to talk to him - to change the subject.

"Good evening."

Smiling in response, You leaned against the glass window and teased, "However, I really didn't expect you to come to me - generally speaking, you should be looking for a companion of the opposite sex at this time." This is the easiest opportunity to win the heart! ”

"I've heard this from Randy......"

Sighing a little helplessly, Lloyd walked up to him with a little depressed feeling: Why do people like to bully themselves?

"However, since Lloyd you came to me, it means that you have already greeted the others."

"Ahh

Lloyd simply uttered a syllable in agreement, and immediately turned the conversation to his side.

"You, can you talk?"

"Aren't we already talking?"

"That's right."

A little embarrassed to laugh, Lloyd was still too easily shy.

"You Jun, where do you think Joachim will be hiding?"

As soon as you open your mouth, it's a serious topic.

Lloyd's hand was in his pocket, and he could tell from the muscles of his wrist that he was clutching something, probably Aenigma. If the Dudley Investigator's communication comes, it can be connected as soon as possible. Knowing that the dispatch of the support department might touch Joasim's nerves, this kind of investigation can only be handed over to Dudley, who is not familiar with Joachim.

"Well, from the point of view of concealment, we haven't been to the Sun Fortress, Crossbell's underground passage, and the Monastery of the Moon."

You casually named a few place names.

"Oh? That's a lot less than I guessed? Isn't it easy to hide forests, for example? ”

"Ah, that's because considering the ecology of Warcraft, the difficulty of building a magic circle, and some rules unique to alchemy. In the forest, it is really not suitable for experiments, and it is too easy to be affected by the Seven Jewels. ”

"That's ......"

Lloyd sneered, and encouraged himself in his heart: Sure enough, there is still a long way to go. You can add exclusion options based on the situation on site.

"Speaking of which, aren't you nervous?"

Lloyd asked.

"No, it won't. I've encountered a lot more than this harsh situation. But you, Lloyd, aren't you nervous? ”

"It's a lie to say that you're not nervous. But it's still a little hard to accept that so many things have happened before. Have a feeling as if you're dreaming right now? ”

"Haha, that's really ......"

You Chensi smiled, suddenly thought of something, and made a spoon-to-spoon motion: "It's a pity that there is no kitchen here, otherwise I would be able to show my hand." The pre-war dinner is always a morale booster. ”

"Well, that's right."

I've learned something new. Lloyd silently took this to heart, and suddenly, a question that had always been curious before, but had never had a chance to ask, came to his mind.

"By the way, can you ask, Yu, you always have a strange obsession with the kitchen and food, why?"

"Want to know?"

You looked at the sun and speculated that it would be a while before it really entered the night, so tell him that there is still plenty of time.

"Well, I'll tell you about it. There is nothing that cannot be said. ”

You gathered his thoughts and began to tell him his story.

When it comes to slave food, most slave owners will choose to give them swill mixed with leftovers.

Except for one type of slave. That's the slave fighter.

Because for the slave owners of the slave fighters, the main income was the fights of the slaves. Weapons can also be made up with technology, and everyone uses them, so it doesn't matter if there are advantages and disadvantages. But the food is not the same. You can't fight on an empty stomach, and a hungry slave can't fight beautifully. The battle is not beautiful enough, and naturally no audience will buy it.

For this very utilitarian reason, slave fighters were more refined in food than other slaves from an early age.

Of course, it is said that it is delicate, but it is only the coarse bread that is difficult to swallow and the unseasoned pieces of meat that are simply grilled over a fire. If you want to say why, the reason is very simple, that is, because slave owners naturally do not hire cooks for a group of slaves, let alone do it themselves, so this barbecue is just thrown to the slaves for raw meat, and then let them make their own.

But it was not uncommon for powerful slaves to snatch food from weaker slaves.

You Chensi is physically weak, so he naturally belongs to the deprived side.

You can't fight hungry. If you can't win against the exploiters, then you can only snatch it from those who are weaker than yourself. It's very simple to work backwards.

However, You immediately discovered the drawbacks. That is, doing so will only weaken the power of the weak more and more. So, he began to unite the weak and cook together the little food that was left. Broth, or meatloaf, in short, make it as accessible to everyone as possible.

Together, we can find a way to keep everyone alive with the little food we have.

Although I also thought about uniting to resist the looters, the snatchers also united, so in the end, the only thing that was implemented was joint cooking.

You Na has great respect for food, but also extreme resistance to other people's behavior of entering the kitchen, which is the instinctive reaction that falls from this time.

If you are in a place where you don't have enough to eat, you will cherish food more than anyone else. That's it. It is also for this reason that he is in the guerrilla quest and minors in cooking.

After listening to him silently, Lloyd's understanding of him in his heart went up a step again. This person has really had a hard time.

Things that ordinary people can't imagine have all happened in Saiaru, and they are happening.

"Swim, no longer need to ............"

"I understand, what are you going to say."

Raising his hand to interrupt him, You smiled at him helplessly. Probably, he wanted to say that he didn't have to worry about it anymore. Really, I always say things that make people feel good.

"Still, thank you for listening to me."

“…… You're welcome. We're partners, right? ”

I was going to joke and say, "You're still too weak." However, when the words came to his lips, they became: "Ah, definitely." Partner. ”

"Don't worry, rely on us as much as you like. I always feel that you rarely rely on us, Youjun. ”

"Ahhh......h

This is because I am afraid that you will suffer after I die.

You thought about it and decided not to say it.

The deeper the bond between people, the more painful it is when they are separated.

At first, You didn't want to have anything to do with them. Later, when I wanted to be friends with them, I found that my time was short, and I didn't know whether I should be close to them. So it dragged on like this.

"This is because you are too unreliable."

In the end, I decided to mix it up with joking words. Lloyd groaned, looking unacceptable.

"I remember, though."

"Hmm."

"In the future, if I have the chance, I will try to rely on you. Please support me. ”

Lobbying for words that brought the conversation to a close.

"Wait, there's one last question."

"Hmm."

"Yu, now for you, our support section, is there still 'no reason to do this, but there is no reason not to do it'?"

“…… I'm sorry you remember. I feel like I haven't said this sentence in a long time. Ah, of course...... Now you are what I want to stay and help you. Lloyd. My captain. ”
