Chapter 430: This Still Doesn't Mean Anything
Due to my status, it was clear that going to the amusement area was not for me, but because of my usual curiosity, I still asked the Lori guide next to me before moving.
"What kind of rides do you have in your play area?" The Sea Capital Command covers a large area, so I had to look up and capture as many of the higher facilities as possible on the side of the play area, but perhaps due to the angle, the only thing I could see was the giant Ferris wheel that could be seen even if I stayed outside the headquarters.
At first, I thought that the amusement park currently under construction in Demon King City would become the first leisure place in the other world to combine the characteristics of sightseeing and amusement facilities, but now it seems that I am one step late, and this idea was used by the third Demon King hundreds of years ago.
In any case, I am the fourth time-traveler to visit the other world, and thanks to the difference in my upbringing and age, the culture I have brought from the modern earth has not been repeated with my predecessors for the time being, and this is the first time that plagiarism has overlapped like this.
This reminds me that although it is not a big problem, it is best to investigate other parts of the mainland to see if there are already buildings with similar functions or projects that have been developed in the future.
"Although it is a play area, only 40% of the area is actually used for playground equipment, and the remaining 60% is more for visitors to go down and experience interactive occasions such as chasing fish in the fish pond or cooking the teaching kitchen."
After Hibiki finished speaking, the lively girl named Lei added, "And the staff inside are all retired seniors in the organization, because the training facilities are also built in the headquarters, so we often come here to help when we are on vacation."
"Ha wow, I heard my seniors say that this is actually an alternative on-the-job training, and one day I have to take a back seat because of an accident. You don't have to spend time adapting to a new work environment." After Lei, the twin sister with a strange mouth also joined the topic, and finally even mentioned the island wind that had been taken away, and said with a worried look: "Like the island wind instructor, I heard other seniors say that she only took intelligence courses at the beginning, and she didn't go to the tourist area to help during the holidays. As a result, I have now retired unexpectedly and can only become a freshman training officer, although the salary is similar to that of the staff in the park, but the heavy work is even better."
"I'm sorry to interrupt you when you talk about it, dare to ask how old you are this year?"
"Thunder and lightning are nine years old, and I will be ten years old in a few months." The silver-haired voice answered my question.
The unexpected truth can't help but make me ashamed, how are the little girls growing now, and they have begun to plan the direction of their future lives before they are ten years old, if it is a case, it is just a case, but now it seems to be the most in line with the real age. The innocent Xiao is the outlier in this group.
"And what about your captain?"
Hibiki replied quickly, "Just passed my eighth birthday."
「…… You're going to have one of the youngest leaders?" I was stunned for a moment, Xiao Cai, who dared to call herself a sister before, was the youngest of the four, so that the little black-haired girl would be so naïve and had a more appropriate explanation.
I remember that when I was eight years old, I was only in the middle and lower grades of elementary school, and I compared myself to the female classmates in the class at that time...... Give up, I can't remember what happened so long ago.
At that time, the network computer had not yet developed, so it was naturally impossible to be as precocious as the children after that, not to mention the young age, compared to how to attract the attention of girls. It's better to be out there with your little buddies and catch people, under the effect of this kind of thinking. The so-called girls are naturally hidden out of sight, and it is estimated that they usually play skipping rope outside after class, right?
Continuing the way of speaking without shocking death, Hibiki then broke the news again: "In fact, it was her youngest who made her the captain, Lei and Dian are biological sisters, needless to say, they must be from the same country, and when there is a problem with the mission, shirking responsibility is equivalent to directly tying up half of the votes in the team." Therefore, the three of us reached a consensus in private, and jointly elected Xiao to be the captain, so that she could be the substitute for the dead ghost."
Despite the signs I had seen beforehand, my back was covered in cold sweat when I made such an undisguised disclosure of the dark side of my heart. The most chilling thing is that when Xiang spoke, the twin sisters who were waiting by the side were still listening and nodding, but I didn't expect that there were three members of the Lori team in a group of four who were all dark in their hearts......
Looking at the little black-haired girl who was chasing butterflies from a distance, I suddenly thought that ignorance was a blessing.
"Besides, there is also an advantage to choosing Xiao to be the captain, that is, for the sake of her youngest, the seniors will definitely be punished lightly, and as long as we pretend to be cute together, we may be able to escape directly." The corners of his mouth outlined an upward arc: "The plan is flawless."
"Wait a minute, let me make a confirmation." Before deciding on the next move, I suddenly reached out and gently pinched Hibiki's ears, and then kneaded them before relieving my heart: "It's indeed human ears, I'm sorry, I thought you were disguised by someone I knew."
Hibiki didn't get angry, but nodded in understanding and asked, "Is the other party also a child?"
"Only the appearance is a child, and her race is elves." I picked out the words and decided to include the twins in the topic as well: "Quite like you in personality, to paraphrase the common saying I heard when I traveled around the continent, that is, pink is black when cut."
The twin sisters flattened their mouths and did not express their personal opinions on this.
"There is another thing, didn't you just say that pretending to be tender is very helpful in daily life, why did you immediately reveal your true nature in front of me?"
"Store manager, you also heard Instructor Island Wind say that her career life is only four years, don't you think there is something wrong with this?" There was no positive reply, Hibiki first moved the exit of the island wind to the topic, and then continued: "We were trained, and then we were assigned to the combat squad or the intelligence squad according to the situation, but because of the internal regulations of the organization, even if the combat squad that did not have to worry about the leakage of identity was retired from the front line, the oldest was only twenty-four years old, although even the salary given by the second-line member organization was still good, but it was simply buried the rest of our lives and what we had learned in the past. As soon as I think about it, I feel very unwilling."
"Listen to what you mean, do you want to change jobs?" I shrugged my shoulders, "It's useless to tell me this, I'm just a normal café manager."
"And another city." Xiang raised his head and said very seriously: "I prefer exciting adventures full of uncertainty to a comfortable life, you are not an ordinary café manager, you are the bard Xu Mo, the top ten people in the demon world voted this year."
"But it still doesn't mean anything."
"Yes, but in addition to that, you are on the second list, this year's list of troublemakers in the Demon Realm who are best at causing disturbances, I am sure that as long as I can follow you, my life will be full of waves in the future!"
Emotionally, I wanted to contradict this adventurous little girl, but unfortunately, I was really speechless at the moment, considering what I had to do next. (To be continued......)
