Chapter 97: Night Talk
Late at night, Miss May's dessert shop.
"Why are you in a bad mood?" Miss Mei Yi smiled and sat opposite Li Mu with a cup of black tea.
"How can you tell I'm in a bad mood, I'm wearing a mask." Li Mu held a bowl of pork bone ramen and ate it sucking. "Anyway, Miss Miyi's noodles are really good, and it would be great if you could lay an egg."
While speaking, Li Mu drank the last mouthful of soup and put the noodle bowl and chopsticks on the table, "It's still the best noodle soup late at night." Whether it's instant noodles or ramen. Li Mu patted his stomach unsatisfactorily, and then poured himself a cup of black tea to digest the food.
"People who can come outside at eleven o'clock in the evening for a late-night snack are either just returning from an adventure or are in a bad mood. However, those who return from adventure usually go to the tavern to celebrate, so the only way to come to me is the second one. Besides, if you only have half of your mask, you can still see it clearly below the nose. Miss Mei Yi took a sip of black tea and said slowly.
After being reminded by Miss Mei Yi, Li Mu remembered that this was a different world with the theme of adventure, which was very different from his original city that never sleeped. There are also big differences in living habits. The late-night snack that he is accustomed to has a different meaning to the people here.
Perhaps it was too smooth a while ago, which made Li Mu gradually rise a little slack, and unconsciously revealed some living habits that should not be in the other world.
"It's nothing, it's just a few little troubles, just a few disobedient imps, you know, so don't care." Li Mu explained in a relaxed tone. Make yourself look like you're a risk-taker who cares about your juniors.
"That's right, the younger generation today isn't like we were then......" Miss Mei Yi took a sip of her black tea, as if she was caught up in a memory.
Li Mu didn't bother when he saw this, but looked out the window while drinking black tea, and the two sat speechless. The dessert shop fell silent for a while.
After a while, Miss Mei Yi seemed to wake up from her memories, and she looked at Li Mu, who was staring out the window, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly, like a little fox who had succeeded in his treacherous scheme.
"I don't care about you, but you won't let me make you a supper for nothing at such a late hour." Miss Mei gently placed the black teacup on the table.
"Ah, that, didn't the extra material be given to you?" Li Mugang came back to his senses from his thoughts, and he didn't adapt to Miss Meiyi's train of thought for a while.
"This is the price during the day, but it is late at night, and the price naturally cannot be the same as that during the day, and besides, don't you know that sleepless at night is the biggest natural enemy of women, so you must compensate me." Miss Mei Yi crossed her fingers and rested on her chin, and her eyes looked at Li Mu like an autumn moon.
Li Mu looked at the other party's smiling eyes and knew that the other party was probably going to play a child's temper. However, this is not a big deal for Li Mu, and for the people who help him, some of the other party's little temper, Li Mu said that it is still acceptable.
"I was defeated by you, say it, what compensation do you want, as long as I can afford it." After today's contact, Li Mu has a general understanding of Miss Meiyi's temper, and knows that the other party will not make some excessive demands, at most he will play tricks on himself.
"Ah, this, I haven't wanted it yet." Miss Mei Yi put her hands on her cheeks, "What do you want to do?" Miss Mei Yi thought with a smile, "Let you bring more and better ingredients?" No, no, no, you came to me to cook, so wouldn't it take advantage of your heart? Letting you hunt monsters? No, no, this is what you adventurers are supposed to do, and it is not a punishment. It's good to do something. Miss Mei Yi pondered.
"There it is!" Miss Mei clapped her hands and seemed to have a brilliant idea. "Alright, tomorrow the Kingdom of Health from the desert will send a caravan here, they will sell some souvenirs here, you go and buy me a gift. It's just the cost of a late-night snack, how about it. ”
"The kingdom of health? From the desert? Li Mu seemed to have guessed something, but he was still not sure, and he needed to be confirmed.
"It's the country that likes to live in pyramids, and their country is full of pyramids, big and small. It's strange that anyone likes to live in a house like that. However, their utensils are very interesting, you see this ice bowl, this golden kettle, they are all their specialties. Miss Mei said as she took out two things from the back kitchen. One is a bowl made of cold ice, the other is a kettle made of gold, and although the two items are of different shapes, they are both exquisitely carved and exquisite, and they are valuable items at first glance.
Li Mu looked at these two items, a trace of sweat broke out on his forehead, and through these two items, he had probably guessed which game was indiscriminate. However, it seems that the other party is also a product of the Cairo company, and it is all a series, so it doesn't seem to be an incomprehensible thing to mess into.
"Hey, whether you want to go or not, it's not because you're afraid of the expensive price and don't want to go." Miss Mei asked, crossing her waist.
"Why, money is not a problem for me at all, just a few monsters." Money is really nothing to an adventurer like Li Mu. As long as you kill a few more powerful monsters, you will come as soon as you sell the materials. Therefore, money is just a string of numbers to him.
"Alright, I'll go to the caravan's stall tomorrow and have a look, and if there's something worthy of Miss Miyi, I'll buy it back." Li Mu stood up. "Thank you Miss Mei Yi for the black tea, it was delicious. I love it. ”
"Is this leaving? It's heartless. After eating, he left. Miss Mei pouted unhappily.
"Next time I will come with a story, I believe that I will not disappoint Miss May, good night, beautiful young lady." Li Mu gave a knightly salute to Miss Mei Yi, and then left the dessert shop.
"Really, won't you stay a little longer? Forget it, if tomorrow's story isn't good, see how I clean you up. Miss Mei Yi pouted and watched Li Mu leave and silently closed the door of the store.
"Well, there are so many dishes and dishes to be washed, it's so troublesome, why hasn't anyone invented a magic that automatically washes dishes and bowls. It's really troublesome, I'll go to the Magic Research Institute tomorrow, and I'll have to ask Zhang Song (Matsumura lacquered clogs) to invent a dishwashing magic for me, otherwise I'll throw all his experimental materials into the magic pot, hum. Miss Mei Yi hummed a melody she didn't understand, and walked slowly to the back kitchen with a stack of used cutlery.
