13 Lola's busyness
Alice, who came out of the warehouse window with her head exposed, still looked at Lola who was crossing the second floor of Grande in the backyard with a confirmed expression.
"It's lunch!" Lola shouted again, "Hey, can you come and talk!"
Alice was no longer visible at the window, and after a while, she walked out of the warehouse and into Grande, blinking as she passed by Zack, who was shaking his glass at the side door of the office.
Lola's now-ongoing Parker Elementary Nursery project is the key to Zach completing the Falken commission. Since the last ribbon-cutting ceremony, Zach has found that the gap in the third generation of the West End has been bigger than he thought, and then things have not progressed.
Grande has been waiting, waiting for Lola's project to make some progress and be able to force those West End kids to stay together honestly, and Zach will find a way. Lola came running at this time, and it was difficult to see if there was any progress.
Zach nodded, didn't do anything to expect, motioned for Alice to go, and slowly swayed behind. Let's hear what Lola has to say first.
"Alice, you're going to save me this time, you're going to help me!"
"What's the matter, don't worry. Alice pulled her friend," said slowly. β
Lola pulled Alice, and naturally, the two girls sat comfortably on the bed. Zach walked past Alice's door with a wine glass, and our vampire wasn't shameless enough to join the conversation between the girls. Zach swayed to Grande's recreation room, sat down on the old Hank's newly made couch, and looked around.
"Do you remember Trisha-sensei?!" Lola was a little excited, obviously anxious.
"I remember. Alice was in such a hurry, trying to slow down her speech and balance Lola's impatience, "What's wrong with Trisha-sensei?" Alice's ability to get along with friends is getting better and better.
"Today's week! Remember! Teacher Trisha has the habit of bringing children to worship together!"
The lunch time Trisha came to Grande was brought by Lola after the week. There were a few children by the way. The situation at that time can show that this is a good teacher who is responsible for the child, and it is gratifying that she has always retained this habit.
"Yes. Alice smiled, "She's brought a few students to Grande before." β
Zach couldn't see Lola's face, but he could clearly hear Lola's irritability, "Yes! It's because a few of her students came to Grande last time!
Alice obviously couldn't keep up with Lola's intentions. "What's wrong? Don't they like the lunch I made?"
"It's not that I don't like it!" Lola exclaimed.
Zach in the recreation room discovers something interesting while 'eavesdropping' on the conversation between the girls. Grande's old TV where Papa Midnight had appeared had been replaced, as was the TV cabinet, which must have been made by Old Hank. Well, that's not the point, the point is that Zach found some new tapes in the cabinet under the TV stand.
The slightly fancy box was printed with "Cook's Kitchen Collector's Edition 1", apparently bought by Alice.
However, the cover poster is printed with the faces of two people, the slightly chubby Cook. and the new hostess. What's her name? As Alice's older brother, Zach was so thoughtful and selective that he forgot her name.
Zach, who had nothing to do but eavesdrop on the girl's speech, casually pulled out a "collector's edition" that no one but Alice would probably watch and stuffed it into the VCR. Looking at a bunch of buttons, hesitated, pressed it, and fortunately, on the screen, it began to play normally.
"Alice, I'm sorry for you!" Lola began to apologize.
"Well...... Alice had no idea where this apology came from. "I forgive you?"
"Alice!" Lola seemed to pat the soft and comfortable bed, "I'm serious! I'll tell you again!"
"Oh good, I forgive you. β
Zach raised an eyebrow and watched as some young Cook on the screen stood alone behind a pile of ingredients and began the introduction of this episode. The content is somewhat familiar, Zach thought, it seems to be the content of the show from a long time ago. Isn't the situation of "Cook's Kitchen" a little bad? Isn't this kind of thing only coming out on a show that is about to end?
"Today is the service. Lola emphasized this matter again, "Originally, I thought that I should be able to rest today, at least there will be fewer children than usual, just, just ......"
"Do you have no one to take care of the children?" Alice finally understood. "Want to help?"
Hey, Alice should have ignored what Lola shouted when she first arrived, the lunch of more than 40 people.
"No, there's no shortage of people...... Lola's tone was a little evasive, "Oh Alice!
"Oh. Confused again, Alice decided not to speak.
"Anyway, I thought I could rest today!" I gave the teachers a day off!" Lola was the owner of the project, well, she had the right to do so, "I was going to let the Keplers clean up." The third-generation young masters and ladies in the West District, there was irritation in Lola's tone, "They usually only play and don't do things, I thought, I want them to do something! After all, this is a project we do together, right!"
Zach looked at the familiar content on the screen, a little bored, looked at a bunch of buttons again, hesitated, and tentatively pressed one. Zach pressed right, and the screen began to fast-forward.
"But I didn't expect the children to come!"
It was all Lola's mistake, Paisying's environment, it looked like those parents would have time to babysit their children on Sundays? well, it wasn't her fault, she was a West End after all.
"Kepler's guys can't help at all!" Lola's tone was full of annoyance, "Okay, Kepler worked hard, barely managed to control those junior high school (junior high school in the West End), but there are also those small ones, like Falken's siblings, I don't know if it's intentional, or whatever, I know that I'm crazy with a bunch of kids!
As if sensing the irritation of her friend, Alice still spoke, "Aren't there any adults?
Lola's tone was completely depressed, "Alice, it's not like you don't know. The salaries paid to those teachers were all raised by Kyle from the church, not much at all. Didn't I tell you about the situation at Parker Elementary School before, it is already very difficult to maintain, many teachers are relying on summer vacations, and I have already taken the holidays here, called. Can't call it back......"
yes, to have a rich sixteen-year-old girl 'kidnap' an adult who needs to run for a living in the name of charity?
"It's better to be Teacher Cuisha. Lola's tone softened a little, "She's here, add a physical education teacher, just two adults, and manage more than forty ......" It was too soft and became depressed, "noisy child...... Falcen's siblings and Kepler kept working against each other. Hey, leading everyone is not controlled at all......"
Zach raised an eyebrow here, hearing something of interest. It seems that the scenario described by Lola is that Kepler is trying to manage, and Falken's siblings are supposed to be on the side of the third generation of the West Side to help, but instead they deliberately sabotage, taking advantage of their age, to cause trouble with the children of Parker Elementary School of the same age.
But Zach himself is in crisis. He stared at the screen, which was torn crookedly into strips and rapidly changing, at the two arrows that kept flashing on the upper right. Fingers hesitated in confusion on a row of buttons on the VCR. Zach didn't know how to stop fast forward.
A finger poked out from Zach's side and pressed it on a square button, "Press this." Brian winked behind Zach, "Stop." Then he pressed play again, "This is play." β
Zach tilted his head, "You're very good at using this kind of technology?" frowned slightly. "I didn't find anything like this in your house. β
"It used to be boring when I was in a nursing home, and the only entertainment was movie nights every Friday. Brian raised an eyebrow, as if remembering the past, "Lip was always the one chosen to play the film, and he asked the Guild to secretly let me play next to ......"
Zachburn was nodding. Suddenly stopped, "Lip, you mean Philip." "This guy whose whereabouts are mysterious, so mysterious that he actually appeared in the dream that the vampire was induced by Varmina has reappeared.
"Yes. Brian raised an eyebrow, "You know Lip?"
"Sort of. Zach waved his hand and opened his mouth to ask something, but closed again. Because Lola over there continued to talk, Zach wanted to concentrate on 'eavesdropping' on the commission-related content that he was interested in, and didn't want to be distracted by another thing that was also of great interest. This priority allocation makes sense, Lola won't always be at Grande, and Brian hasn't left for a while.
Lola's tone was a little comforting, "Then it was Teacher Cuisha who thought of a way to take everyone to worship." The most disobedient children at least know that they can't be noisy in church. "What an idealistic and naΓ―ve idea.
Imagine two adult teachers going to church with a large group of uncontrolled children, and I really don't know where Lola's little comfort comes from.
"And then, then, hey. "Although the effect is very poor, very ......bad," Lola's voice lowered, "I thought we were going to be kicked out of Mary's Church, but fortunately the priests and priests forgave us, and gave us the choir hall to rehearse the quick singing, promising that if they rehearsed well, they could perform at the end of the service......"
Zach raised an eyebrow as he watched the Cook's Kitchen show replay normally, but still the old stuff.
From the perspective of disciplining children, this method is very good, so that the noisy children have a goal, and the children who have something to do are naturally much more controlled. But there's no way Zach doesn't care that it's Mary's Chapel and it's a choir, and God knows what the demons did to help Lola for!
"Whew-" Alice let out a sigh of relief, a smile in her tone, "it seems that your troubles have been solved." Then I'll go ahead and sort it out...... It's a warehouse. Alice seemed to have completely forgotten what Lola said when she first arrived, and specifically asked for her forgiveness, "By the way, what are you here for me?"
Lola must have glared at Alice, "Alice!"
"Huh?" Alice still hadn't understood what Lola was doing in a hurry to ask her for help.
"Alice. Lola took a deep breath, "Listen to me, it's like this. The children, who had finally stabilized, were finally able to speak well. β
"Yes. β
Then there was a kid who had been to Grande last time, and he talked about the time he was brought to Grande's lunch by Teacher Trisha. β
"Yes. β
Then the other Park Elementary kids were envious, because the kids who had come said that the lunch was delicious, the best lunch they had ever had. β
"Oh, thanks. β
"Alice, listen to me!"
"Oh. β
And then Kepler said the same. β
"Yes. Apparently by this time, Alice had not yet noticed anything wrong, and responded in a daze. Naturally, Kepler also ate Alice's lunch, and when she skipped class for the breakup, she was unlucky to collide with her father Smith, but it didn't affect this playful girl who gave Chef Alice an evaluation.
Then the brothers and sisters of Falken began to disagree. β
"Oh......" Alice hesitated in her voice, ominous premonition.
"The two sides quarreled......"
"This, that'......"
"And then, and then ......," Lola's voice tensed, "there were the Falken siblings glaring at me and saying, 'Sister Lola, I don't believe anyone can cook a better lunch than the chef on our estate!' Kepler is lying! she's going to be a liar!' On the other side, forty more children looked at me and asked, 'Is that really the best lunch?......'
Clearly, Lola couldn't withstand the pressure.
"Lola. Alice's voice suddenly calmed down, and in the picture that Zach couldn't see, Grande's sister took Lola's hand and said sincerely, "I can bake cookies for forty people, but I can't cook lunch for forty people, Grande's kitchen is only that big ......"
When Zach left Brian, who was looking at him, stood at the door of Alice's room, he saw Lola grabbing Alice's hand that was about to let go, looking pitiful and pleading.
Zach laughed, "Good thing it's early enough." Zach winked at Alice, appreciating the tacit cooperation, "It's all children, and it's only about two dozen adults." β
Lola turned around and glared angrily at the guy who didn't hide that she had eavesdropped on all the conversations she had had had with her friend.
"I'm helping you, Lola. Zach tilted his head.
Lola was shocked and immediately turned to Alice, "Yes, Alice! Zach is right! Not much!"
"Then we're going to start preparing now...... Alice reluctantly agreed, "and I need everyone's help." β
"Eun! all come to help!" Lola eagerly pulled Alice to her feet.
Zach turned around and knocked on the door of the recreation room, "Brian, come and help." "It's not just Brian's 'guest', Louise, Danny, and even Old Hank all have to help out.
At Zack's call, Brian took out the videotape, turned off the video, and walked to the corner of the recreation room, not moving.
Zach frowned, "Brian, did you hear that?" β
There was no movement.
"Brian?" Zach walked into the recreation room, "I said......"
Brian's body moved, and he stood in another corner with his back to Zach against the wall, trying to stay as far away from Zach's corner as possible.
Zach's face became complicated, and he thought for a moment, "Ryan?"
The body in the corner of the wall shook. Zach stopped and frowned, it was actually this moment!
"Hurry, hurry!" Lola said as she pulled Alice down the hallway, "Zach, aren't you going to help!" shouted into the recreation room.
Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth and whispered, "Stay here and don't move, or you'll be responsible for the consequences." "Exited the room and locked the door. (To be continued......)
