Chapter 808: A Man's Expression
Booking?
I was in trouble, but she didn't make an appointment to meet me when she would meet, but just asked me to come to Dasai City to find her as soon as possible, I don't know if this can be regarded as an appointment.
I was about to speak, but she added, "Don't fool me with verbal appointments, that doesn't count, unless there's a formal application...... Well? ”
I smiled, stretched out my fist, and quietly handed it underneath: "I didn't lie to you, Miss Emma really has something to do with me, and I would like to ask you to make it convenient and help report it." ”
As she spoke, she let go of her hand and quietly put the ten silver coins in her palm into her pocket.
"Oh, it seems like you're really in a hurry, there's no way around it" She sighed, showing a helpless expression: "I'll try to inform Master Emma, you wait here." ”
With that, she walked to the inner hall, and after a few steps, she suddenly turned her head and asked me, "By the way, I haven't asked your name yet, what's your name?" ”
"An Xiaoyi," I said.
"What!" The front desk staff was startled at first, and then they showed a complicated expression as if they didn't hear me clearly, and as if they had already heard me clearly but still doubted their ears.
"An, An Xiaoyi" I cautiously asked, "Excuse me, is there any problem?" ”
"Ahh It turns out that you are Mr. An Xiaoyi~" Her attitude warmed up instantly, as if the spring breeze in March was blowing across the whole land.
The change in style was so sudden that I was caught off guard.
"Yes! It's me! I replied mechanically, not turning a corner in my head.
"Oops~ Why are you so stunned, come with me, Master Emma is waiting for you in the office~" She walked up enthusiastically, grabbed me, led the way ahead, and went straight to the second floor.
I, on the other hand, let her lead like a puppet, but I was already relieved in my heart: I think Miss Emma had ordered her, but because I came up and asked to see her directly, I did not report my name, which led the girl at the front desk to think that I was the same as other people who were looking for Miss Emma, so I would deliberately make things difficult and squeeze some oil and water.
Dropping me all the way to the office door, she smiled at me and ran away with small steps.
Looking at her back, knowing that she was missing around the corner, I reacted: Ah, hey, my money, you haven't paid me back yet......
Raising his hand, he stood for a moment like a sculpture, withdrew his hand stupidly, and said in his heart: If you don't want to come back, you have to do more things.
He sighed and knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
Pushing open the door, Miss Emma, dressed in a formal suit and with a fox-eared melon seed face, was crouching in front of the desk, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
When I entered, she just looked up, and the career line that was deeply sunken in her chest loomed in front of my eyes, but my heart did not fluctuate - her career line was much, much worse than Cagalli's and Phoenix's, at most on par with Yura's.
"Hello, Miss Emma" I didn't even pause, moving my gaze straight from the deep groove of her career line to her face.
Miss Emma's appearance is the same as half a year ago, and even her skin seems to be better, her smooth melon seed face and delicate facial features are harmoniously distributed, which highlights her charm and maturity, and with this formal dress, it is simply an office temptation!
Unfortunately, this isn't the tone I like.
"Hello, Mr. An Xiaoyi" she slowly got up, smiled at me and nodded, "Do you want something to drink?" ”
"No, thank you," I declined her politeness, "You might as well take me directly to the assistance team." ”
She looked at me deeply and said, "Okay, no problem. ”
......
......
Along the way, I walked side by side with her, but neither of us spoke, because we didn't know what to say.
The awkward atmosphere lasted until they entered the palace and found the goblin to assist the team.
The Goblin Assist Team teaches orcs how to make gunpowder and how to mix it in the lab, so they spend most of their time there.
When I entered the laboratory, I first caught President Olli, who had an anxious expression, and Mi Lulu, who was dozing off on the lab table.
"Yo~Morning, everyone~" I greeted with a smile.
In the laboratory, there was a lot of noise just now, and after I said hello, there was silence for a moment, and after a few seconds, the goblins stood up in unison, saluted, and shouted: "Morning Lord An Xiaoyi!" ”
"Ah, hehe, it's really enthusiastic" Although I have already experienced it once, I am still shocked by the momentum in front of me.
President Olli bounced up from his chair excitedly, stepped forward quickly, grabbed my hand, and said, "An Xiaoyi, you are here!" If I continue to be so idle, I'll die! ”
"No," I smashed my fist on his shoulder, "I think you're alive!" ”
Mi Lulu was awakened by the greetings of the goblins just now, and when she saw me coming, she didn't even catch me at the first time, but was tidying up her messy hair......
"Hey, Mi Lulu, I haven't seen you for a while, you've become more youthful and moving" I smiled: "I'm almost unrecognizable~"
"Why, how can the change be so big...... "As she spoke, her face turned red.
"By the way, is your uncle okay?"
"Uncle, he's fine now, Auntie's body has fully recovered, and the business of the weapon shop is fine, so I have nothing to say."
"Is it~ hehe" unconsciously, I showed a sinister smile.
"Huh? Xiao Yi, your expression ......" Mi Lulu showed a worried look: "Are you okay?" ”
"It's all right," I smiled.
"Really?" Mi Lulu said suspiciously: "Your expression just now is so ......"
Without waiting for her to finish, I grabbed President Olli's shoulders and smiled, "You have a good expression, huh?" That's right, the man's expression, that's how it should be, you say no, brother? ”
President Olli looked confused, but he still echoed me, "Ah, yes, brother said yes. ”
Then, I widened my chest and said, "Okay, that's all for the small talk, now let's get down to business, okay?" ”
I turned to Miss Emma.
She nodded and smiled, "Yes." ”
......
......
I also learned a little about the production of gunpowder when I was on Earth, and I remember that it was made from a mixture of sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal, but the gunpowder in the Wafeng Continent seems to be made in a completely different way, and it is made from a mixture of more than a dozen different materials, which still requires a lot of purification and refining steps.
It feels as if only the name is the same......
I wandered around, peering at the blueprints and notes on the table, listening to the goblins' explanations and presentations.
After a few minutes, I felt a little confused, no wonder I needed the help of the assistance team, just the purification, refining, and selection and ratio of ore were so complicated that I was confused just holding my notes and reading the formula.
It's hard to be sorry for this group of orcs who specialize in scientific research.
