Chapter 34: I think it's OK
Early the next morning, Shiraishi got up and washed.
According to his habit, he should have stayed in bed until noon.
However, it is boring to play without a mobile phone, and secondly, I have to hire new employees today, and then officially open the store, so it will be very busy visually, so Shiraishi decided to get up early.
Get up early to earn half a day, crystallization is so difficult to get and can't be wasted.
It's a big deal that when the employees start working, he sneaks back and sleeps.
After taking care of himself, Shiraishi came to the door that had not been used for a long time, opened the curtains, and pulled up the roller shutter door.
At half-past eight, it was time to go to work, but there was no one on the street.
That's fine, otherwise if the system summons a strange-shaped employee to him, there are too many witnesses, wouldn't it be very difficult to deal with it.
Thinking of this, Shiraishi brushed and closed the curtains in the store again.
After he returned to the counter, he clicked on [Cafe] in the upper right corner of the light screen and selected [Employee Management].
Before, when he was in the virtual world, this interface was still gray, but now he has a crystallization, and it is automatically unlocked.
After clicking on it, I thought it would be a list of employees, but who knew that there was a summoning array on the interface - this scene is too familiar, isn't it a common money-eating array in some mobile games?
Shiraishi pointed his finger and almost habitually slid to the main interface to confirm the balance in the e-wallet, and finally held back again.
…… Speaking of which, he thought that he could only hire the person who signed the contract for the staff of the café, but he didn't expect it to be a random draw.
With some curiosity, Shiraishi clicked on the prize pool in the lower right corner.
As a result, when the interface is expanded, there is only one line of words inside:
【Butterfly Ninja.100%】
"......", there's no fun of card drawing at all!
I really shouldn't have clicked on it...... Shiraishi sighed in his heart and pressed [extract] without any sense of expectation.
A confirmation box pops up:
[Randomly draw [Clerk] x1, consume [Crystal] x1]
【Confirm or not】
[Yes] [No]
"......", liar, you remove that "random" for me!
Indignantly pressed "yes".
After choosing, the summoning array lit up with a burst of bells and whistles.
In Shiraishi =. =, the pile of cards in the center of the screen shuffled and shuffled, and finally in the dazzling colored light, a card popped up, rotated, and the side with text spread out in front of Baishi's eyes.
It's not a common character card, but a business card-like thing, with a few words written on it with a brush:
【[SR]Butterfly Shinobi】
Oh, it's still graded?
And I also write in English with a brush...... The system is worthy of you.
Shiraishi stared at this card and didn't know how to use it, after all, there was no place to insert a card on the light screen.
He tried to drag the piece of paper off the screen, but failed.
…… Aren't employees jumping out of the system, but coming to the door in person? That's why you just hand over a business card?
Guessing this, Shiraishi walked outside the store and looked around.
There were a few industrious shops in the distance that opened early, but the streets were still empty, with the occasional pedestrian passing by, but only far away, let alone stopping at his door, and there were no people even turning into the side street.
…… Well, after all, it's an employee who draws cards, and it's okay to go off the beaten path.
Referring to the appearance of the Q version of the assistant, Shiraishi began to look down on the ground, trying to see if there was a thumb-sized villain.
After finding nothing, he suddenly remembered something, his face changed, and he trembled and moved his feet away and looked at the soles of his shoes.
…… Fortunately, there was no bloody sight of stepping on the employees by mistake.
When he put down his feet and was about to pull the dead leaves on the side of the road again, someone suddenly put it to his ear and asked gently, "What are you looking for?" ”
“!!” , The distance that was too close was startled by Shiraishi, and a reflexive elbow slashed towards the place where the sound came from.
It's all a knee-jerk reaction of the body, like walking down the road when a ball hits you head-on, and your mind is still thinking about what happened, and your hand has slapped the ball away.
It's the same thing with Shiraishi now. It's just that he felt that he was moving fast enough, but when he slashed out, the attack landed in the air.
Turning around, I saw a small girl with her hair coiled and jumping lightly two meters away—more like she was floating than jumping, and the light and flowing movements immediately reminded people of some kind of flickering lepidopteran insect.
The girl leaned back, leaning lightly against the door of the store, not angry that she was almost beaten, but still laughing, "Do you want to help?" ”
“…… No, thanks. ”
Shiraishi looked at her for a moment, and immediately determined that this was his new employee. Her dress is too out of place in the real world.
The clothes are ordinary black with copper buttons, a bit like a men's middle school uniform, but with leggings wrapped underneath and straw shoes. In addition, she also wore a feather weave on her upper body, on which were distributed countless irregular diamond shapes, narrow and fluttering, like the fine scales on the wings of a butterfly.
The girl's eyes and hair tips are purple from top to bottom, and even the hairpin at the back of the head is in the shape of a butterfly with purple edges.
Look at that haori, then look at the hairpin, and contact the name "Butterfly Shinobi", it's strange that you can't recognize it.
As he looked at him, Shinobu smiled at him again.
It doesn't seem accurate to say "smile at Shiraishi", as Shiraishi has been smiling since the first time he saw her.
This smile doesn't feel gentle, but it's definitely not indifferent, it's just very specitypical, like a convenience store clerk who has to laugh countless hours a day, it doesn't mean anything, it's just a standard expression.
Such a person didn't seem easy to approach, but Shiraishi was still relieved.
At least people are very polite on their faces.
Before, he was really afraid that the system would create a strange ninja to come out, and if he didn't agree with him, he would take the head of the guest......
After briefly introducing themselves to each other at the door, and after confirming their identities, Shiraishi hurriedly invited people to the store.
It's really too conspicuous in this fancy dress, but fortunately, there is no one around for the time being.
Shiraishi pushed open half of the store, and Butterfly Shinobu walked in with a little curiosity, looking at the modern shop.
As soon as she took two steps into the store, the clothes on her body suddenly refreshed from top to bottom, and the strange dress of mixed and matched style became an ordinary skirt in modern society.
In addition, she put on an apron, which had the same pattern as her feather weaving, the kind of butterfly wings with green and purple edges.
After reading the whole process of cross-dressing, Baishi was sighing that he couldn't get used to this kind of black technology after watching it a few times, but at this time, the butterfly next to him looked down at himself, and actually muttered, "It's amazing." ”
“?” , Shiraishi almost thought he had misheard. Isn't this AI made by the system?
Butterfly Shinobu looked at herself, raised her head, and saw that the new boss was in a daze again, she smiled tolerantly, and then walked around Shiraishi to the counter.
Before taking up the post, she received that kind of "employment training", and now she is a little more professional than Shiraishi.
Shiraishi quickly came to his senses and followed to the bar.
There was a baffle above the counter, and he could see the butterfly shinobu poking at something behind the stage, but it was blocked by the baffle, and he couldn't see the specifics.
Shiraishi had to take a few more steps and go around behind the counter.
After seeing the results clearly, Shiraishi was inevitably shocked again - what Butterfly Shinobu was operating was actually the [Farm] interface in the [Cafe] function of the system.
…… Could it be that this is not an employee, but a colleague?
Not long after this idea came to mind, it was quickly dismissed by Shiraishi.
——Lying next to him and observing for a while, he found that this interface is not like the one that comes with Butterfly Shinobi, but more like an extension projected from his light screen, with only [Farm] and [Back Kitchen] functions.
Butterfly Shinobu quickly finished browsing the page, and she said in that sweet and gentle tone:
"There are only two servings of milk on the shelves at the moment. Also, when the wheat is ripe in the evening, I can make it into flour or cereal. Well...... There's also a clearing here. Saplings and coffee beans, which would you like to plant first? ”
The saplings were collected by Shiraishi later, and a total of two were collected, and I don't know why the café used such a thing.
There was indeed an extra piece of land on the farm, which was next to the one where the wheat was planted, and it was neatly arranged.
Yesterday it seemed that there was only one piece of land, and after walking through the virtual world, another piece was automatically unlocked?
"Spend crystals to hire an employee once, and you will unlock a new piece of land." Butterfly Shinobu saw his doubts, pursed his lips and chuckled, explaining, "That's what the adult called 'System' said. ”
"That's right." , Baishi listened to her words, and felt more and more that she didn't look like she was created, but more like the system came from an unknown world. The way you speak doesn't sound like a modern person.
…… Wouldn't the dream of letting her help buy goods, enter machines, and run coffee shops, and be the shopkeeper in the back?
Only two servings of milk can be served in a day...... Fortunately, he doesn't have to pay the rent, otherwise he will lose all his pants if he opens a store for a day.
Butterfly Shinobu looked at the saplings for a while, and looked at the coffee beans for a while, full of interest, but she didn't speak, quietly waiting for Shiraishi to make a decision.
At this time, Shiraishi looked at a verdant farm page and had a whim:
"Can you plant a sapling next to it and plant coffee beans in the ground?"
