Nothing happened all night. It seems that what happened in the previous life is destined to become a secret.

Ciri sat up from the game pod, inexplicably relieved.

After breakfast, Aunt An and Uncle Gu both went out, and Aze suddenly stopped her.

"Rarity, something happened."

"What's wrong?" Ciri asked, confused.

"There's some news from Arthur." Aze passed on the text received in the light brain to Ciri.

Xi Rui looked at it at a glance, and it was this morning's news, and the content of the news was to accuse Xia Guo of vainly trying to use the name of "Apocalypse" to control the thinking of all mankind, so as to achieve the goal of dominating the world.

The Zhuxia Kingdom is still calm, but the foreign country has already turned the world upside down.

Ciri only glanced at it and smiled, "It's nothing. ”

"I know." Aze just looked at her, "It's not that simple. ”

He paused, "We're getting out of here early." ”

"Where?" Ciri took a half-step back and looked him in the eye.

"Back to the ancestral home."

Ciri nodded, "When are you leaving?" How long? ”

"I'll leave tomorrow, maybe for a long time." Aze reached out and touched her hair, "Clothes Li Bo will clean up for you." By the way, Master Wen agreed to teach remotely, so there will be a holiday today and tomorrow. Is there anything you have to do? ”

Ciri thought for a moment, "Meet a friend." ”

And Aze came to Eden, the store was a thin girl with a delicate appearance, the girl looked at them expressionlessly, and then said to Xi Rui: "Wait a while, the store manager is in the inner room to study the new products." ”

Ciri's eyes lit up, "New? Can I go check it out? ”

The girl nodded strictly, "You can go in." ”

Ciri walked happily towards the room, Aze followed, and the girl reached out to stop Aze, "Please stay." ”

"Huh?" Gu Qingze didn't expect to be stopped, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The store manager doesn't like strangers coming into the inner room to disturb him." The girl ignored the explanation, "Please wait in the store for a while." ”

Sitting down on the bench indoors noncommittally, the girl saw that he had no intention of breaking in, so she went to work on herself, Gu Qingze casually looked around, his fingers moved lightly, and Eden's information was instantly transmitted to his personal light brain.

Eden, a dessert shop, was built three years ago.

Owner: Aesop

Clerk: Frost is late, Hitomi is autumn

Shuang Wanwan and Hitomi Qiuqiu are orphans in the same orphanage, and their background experiences are very simple. But all of Aesop's background is unknown, except for a photo and a name.

Frowning slightly, when did Ciri meet each other? Why was he completely unaware of this? After thinking seriously for a moment, Gu Qingze sent a message from his light brain.

"Help me investigate Aesop, the manager of Eden."

A pale and slender hand pressed on Gu Qingze's light brain, preventing Gu Qingze from sending out a message, and his mellow voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "It's a very rude thing to secretly investigate others." ”

Gu Qingze's pupils shrank, he didn't notice when the other party came to his side, this kind of abrupt feeling was never before. But he can feel that the other party has no malicious intent.

"Late in the evening, close the shop and go home. Inform Qiuqiu that you will be closed today. Aesop turned his head sideways and said to the only clerk, Shuang Wanwan, Gu Qingze stared at Aesop's side face, handsome and mysterious, but pale and sickly.

"Good!" Frost closed the door with a straight face and left.

"You're a friend of White? Gu Qingze? Aesop asked, smiling.

Gu Qingze's face did not reveal any panic, and he gently bowed his head with a flawless smile on his face, "It's exactly below." ”

"Shiro often mentions you." Aesop said with a smirk, "She likes you very much. ”

Aze was about to speak, when Ciri's voice suddenly came.

"Aze! Aesop's new arrivals are great! Ciri happily walked out of the inner room with two crystal clear cherry blossom cakes, "You taste it!" ”

Aze gently took the cake from Ciri's hand, "Thank you." ”

"Hey, heavy color and light friend! That's all I did! Aesop saw that as soon as Xi Rui came out, he handed the cake to Gu Qingze with a dogleg face, and was immediately unhappy, and a childish look of dissatisfaction appeared on his handsome face, "I am the first to think of you when I research a new product!" ”

"Can you do it again~" Xi Rui smiled slightly, not buying it at all, "Besides, we can help you taste the taste of the new product~"

Aesop snorted, and after a moment, he retracted his expression and asked, "Did you come to me for something?" ”

"I'm leaving." Ciri hurriedly swallowed the cake in his mouth and said vaguely, "It may take a long time." ”

Aesop just looked at her faintly, "And then?" ”

Then I won't be able to eat the cake you made! Ciri choked, she couldn't tell Aesop that, could she?! It doesn't seem like much to say that, but it's embarrassing.

She is no longer used to living with the mind of a child.

Aesop suddenly smiled, "Give me the address, and I'll send you new products when I research them later." ”

Ciri was silent, and Aze said lightly, "I haven't decided where to go yet." ”

Aesop shrugged, "Well, it looks like you won't be able to eat." ”

"Thank you Hitomi Qiuqiu for me, the cake she made is delicious." Ciri stood up, "Goodbye." ”

On the way back, Ciri looked out the window without saying a word, his eyes out of focus. The conversation with Aesop in Eden comes to her mind.

"You're going to set up your own faction in Apocalypse? What are you looking for me? Aesop asked suspiciously, "I can't help you with anything." ”

"Didn't you always want to defeat him?" Ciri turned on the light brain, and the portrait projected in mid-air, the man in his thirties had a perfect and hypocritical smile on his face, "Alex Lević, the best pastry chef of the Levich family, the nemesis of the Thornwila family, entered the Thornville family under the pseudonym of Thor Elton fourteen years ago, stole the family heirloom recipe of the Thornville family, and became a world-class dessert master. It is rumored that your father, Heller Thornwira, died of an illness, causing the Thornville family to decline, but in fact he was poisoned, right? ”

"Right? Aesop Sanvila. Ciri folded his hands and sat dignified on the high chair in front of Aesop, his eyes showing a love that he couldn't understand.

Aesop's upbringing could barely be maintained, his eyes widening in disbelief, "Who are you?" How do you know this?! ”

Ciri ignored his questioning, his deep eyes glowed slightly, and he said eloquently: "Your talent is outstanding, but your father suddenly had an accident and you have not been able to access all the knowledge, if there is a family recipe to help, your achievements will definitely surpass Alex." That's what you think, right. ”

Aesop's face changed suddenly, and she yelled, "Yes! My talent is much better than Alex's betrayal, and because I don't have a family recipe, I never get in touch with the mysteries of desserts! Behind him stands the entire Levich family, and I have no way to avenge my father! I'm not reconciled! ”

"If you have a recipe, will you outdo him?" Ciri's face remained unchanged, "Alex Lević got the recipe of the Sanvila family and combined the recipes of the two families to innovate, and now he is no longer the same Soth who didn't know anything fourteen years ago. Where did you get the confidence to get back the recipe and you would defeat him? ”

"And what if I sue you that Alex destroyed the recipe not long after getting the Thornvilla family's recipe?"

"Have you never tasted a dessert made by the other person?"
