(2-in-1 chapter, together today and tomorrow)

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the haze covered the whole sky, and the rain poured down from the black clouds, and the world seemed to lose its original color, becoming gray, and the dead and cold air was suffocating and numb.

Solandelle sat there with her knees folded against the corner, and the rain quickly soaked her, her soaked clothes and skin sticking together, making her shiver with cold.

Passers-by occasionally cast puzzled glances, but no one helped, everyone just wanted to hide from the rain as soon as possible, and no one helped the girl in the rain.

Just as Solandelle was alone in the rain, she suddenly heard a shout: "Hey." ”

I saw a middle-aged man standing at the door of the room not far away, he walked over with an umbrella, and said with concern: "Girl, why are you sitting here alone in the rain?" Let's go to my restaurant to escape the rain. ”

restaurant

In this era, public restaurants have spread to all cities and towns.

There are highly skilled bionic chefs there, with an extremely rich set of ingredients, whether you want to eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, or make some coarse tea and light rice to relieve greasy, you can satisfy everyone's appetite.

As for privately opened restaurants. Such facilities only existed before the enactment of the Territorial Safeguards Act and had not been seen for a long time.

Solandale wiped the rain from her face, calmed down, and with some curiosity, walked with the middle-aged man into his private restaurant.

This middle-aged man is the owner of the restaurant, quite temperamental, with slightly white sideburns, but just the sharp edges of his face, and he is wearing a well-made and delicate pure black gown - at first glance, it is tailor-made in a public tailor's shop

made.

The boss placed Solandale closest to the fireplace, added a few pieces of charcoal to it, brought her a clean towel, and said politely: "Girl, wipe it, you can give me your wet coat and hat, and I will help you set it up and dry it." ”

Solandale took off her soaked coat and gave it to her boss, holding her hat lightly with her backhand.

The boss has a high emotional intelligence and understands the meaning of this action, so he didn't touch her long hat and went directly to help dry the clothes.

After the boss returned, Solandale lowered his head slightly, so that the long hat could hide his face, and said slowly: "There are public restaurants everywhere these days, and it is really rare that someone still opens a private restaurant." ”

There was only one customer in the shop, and the owner was very kind to act as a waiter, serving her handmade refreshments and sitting down across from her.

"Some people don't hate work, they even see it as a part of their lives, they enjoy it and enjoy it, and I happen to be such a person," he said with a smile. ”

Solandale picked up a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth, the sweetness spread, the fragrance of butter hitting every taste bud, and she couldn't help but mutter, "It's delicious"

The boss laughed and deliberately said in an exaggerated tone: "You won't find a second one in Wangcheng who is more powerful at making pastries than me, I promise." ”

Solandale said kindly, "Thank you for your hospitality, what's your name?" Was it the restaurant that opened before the Safeguard Act was enacted? ”

Boss: "Just call me Frank, yes, I've been running a restaurant for thirty-two years." ”

…

Solandale quipped, "Hah, this restaurant is older than me."

”

The boss enthusiastically took the menu at the table and handed it to her: "See if there is anything you want to eat, just order it." ”

Solandale looked at the menu, there were not as many dishes here as in public restaurants, after all, humans and androids were fundamentally different.

It's as easy as making a droid a chef by inputting data into their minds, whether it's Dogoulander cuisine, Far Eastern cuisine, or some rare practice, and they can learn it in a second.

However, human chefs have limited learning ability, and often can only master some of their specialties, and cannot be so versatile.

There are not many meals here, but they are also ingenious, and the prices are free, after all, the monthly coins are useless in the first month of the year.

Not to earn monthly coins, but always opening a restaurant to cook for customers, Frank has really integrated work into his life.

Solandale asked curiously, "Do you usually have a lot of guests here?" ”

Frank smiled and shrugged his shoulders: "It's okay, they're all old customers who are used to my tastes here, compared to the bionic craftsmanship of public restaurants, they love to eat my food, and I love to cook for them." ”

At Frank's recommendation, Solandelle ordered a few of his specialty dishes, chatting while eating, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

At this moment, a young and beautiful woman came out of the back kitchen, wiping the table with a cleaning cloth in her hand, and she saw Solandale and Frank greet each other very warmly: "Good morning, two, I didn't expect to have guests so early." ”

"Good morning, Rei." Frank smiled at Solandale, "By the way, this is my wife, Lei, who usually runs the restaurant with me." ”

Solandale looked sideways at Lei, who was diligently wiping the table, and her tone became meaningful

Something faint: "She's an android, right?" ”

It can be clearly seen that Frank's expression froze, but he was also very calm, he didn't deliberately hide it, but sighed helplessly: "Your observation is so sharp, how can you see it?" ”

Solandale chuckled and gestured to Lei, who was wiping down the table, "No one wants to do such tiring work as cleaning these days. ”

Frank was stunned for a moment, laughed and patted the back of his head: "That's indeed the truth." But seriously, I still don't know how to tell the difference between an android and a human in terms of behavior alone. ”

Solandelle: "I'll teach you a trick, the biggest difference between androids and humans is that they are not really human, they can't think, and they can't process things they can't understand, such as—"

"Rei, can you come over for a moment?" She beckoned to Lei.

Lei walked up to Solandale and smiled kindly, "Hello, guest, do you have any instructions?" ”

I have to say that in terms of human physiognomy standards, Lei can be regarded as a captivating city, with blonde hair shining like the sun, a petite face as delicate as a doll, a pretty nose with a beautiful arc, and eyes like a puddle of clear water.

Before the enactment of the Territorial Protection Act, it was almost impossible for a small restaurant owner to have access to a beauty of this level, let alone marry someone back home.

But now, all you need to do is write an application, and Lord Regent's android factory will roar into action, sending you a dream lover who perfectly meets the criteria.

…

Frank looked at the two curiously, not knowing what Solandale was talking about.

Solandelle stared at Lei, her red lips furrowed, and she said slowly

Words

"I love you."

Lei was stunned suddenly, and her mechanical pupils constricted violently, which was the manifestation of the high-speed index database of the central core.

After an unknown amount of time, Rei smiled procedurally, and the sweet voice disappeared in favor of a mechanical voice: "I'm sorry, but my database doesn't recognize this sentence yet." ”

Solandale shrugged at Frank.

Frank's expression turned lonely, but he wasn't surprised, it was clear that he had said this to Rei before, and he had received the same answer.

Frank muttered, "You say. The android is so perfect in all aspects, able to simulate our joys, sorrows, and sorrows, that it is impossible to tell why there is only a lack of 'love' in ordinary life. ”

Solandale shook the teacup, staring at his own reflection in the cup, and seemed to smile: "Maybe. The people who made them don't have such a thing in their hearts. ”

Frank stopped talking, lingered for a moment, and said cautiously, "But I think the Lord Regent should love Her Majesty."

Solandelle: "Oh? Why? ”

Frank replied a little stumbling: "As far as you know, I heard that they have known each other for a long time, for more than ten years, and Lord Regent has never left Her Majesty, maybe this is love?" ”

Solandale lowered her eyes and let out a short chuckle that seemed to have a hint of mockery in her tone, "Or maybe he just thinks she's useful." ”

Frank was speechless for a moment, he gently put his palm on his heart, and said with great sincerity: "In any case, Lord Regent has blessed us with goodness

He is the greatest being in this mortal world, our god. ”

Under the brim of the hat, the corners of Solandale's lips could be seen slowly flattening, and the blue pupils were filled with unprecedented depth, and the next words made Frank freeze in his seat.

"He's not a god."

Before Frank could react, Solandale uttered the second half of his sentence.

"He's just a mortal stronger than you."

Suddenly, Frank's face turned extremely pale, and for some reason he fell into a panic, and the whole person stepped back in a panic, but tripped over a chair and fell to the ground.

He sat down on the ground in a panic and stretched out his trembling hand to point out the door: "Get out. Get me out right away! ”

Solandale didn't move, just sat there indifferently and looked at him, with no fluctuation in his eyes: "Why are you so scared all of a sudden?" ”

Frank no longer had the kind and easy-going appearance he had just now, and his face was twisted and roared, "Get out!! ”

A few seconds later, heavy footsteps sounded outside the door, and Frank's face turned extremely white at this moment.

"Oh," Solandale didn't look back, but seemed to know who it was, "you're scared of them." ”

"Bang!" The door was broken, and three tall men in black shirts walked into the restaurant, their eyes cold to the point of not being mortal, staring at Solandale's back.

"Tick." The rain dripped from them and fell to the ground, and a heavy sense of oppression was born.

…

Say goodbye to the dead birds.

Apostle of the Grim Reaper.

The words and deeds of all men are under their ears and eyes.

No one will survive the blasphemous.

Solandale took out his pocket watch and glanced at the time, and said, "6 seconds,

It's unbelievably fast. No wonder so many people are afraid of you. ”

Frank was already sweating from fright, and fell to his knees in the most humble manner, and muttered tremblingly, "Those words are what she said to me with great piety. Glory to my lord with reverence, glory to my lord"

Ignoring Frank, Deathbird walked straight behind Solandelle and said emotionlessly, "You're arrested." ”

"Why?" Solandale was still eating the meal in front of her, and she didn't shy away from telling the dead bird about the heavy sense of oppression, "Just because I said Chino van Helsing was mortal?" Is there a rule in the code that he is not allowed to say that he is mortal? ”

The Dead Bird did not argue, but carried out the procedural instructions, and one of them clamped Solandale's shoulder with one hand, repeating again: "You are arrested." ”

"Smack." Solandale was unceremonious, and directly patted the hand on his shoulder.

This action triggered the Death Birds' defenses, and they drew their guns and aimed them at Solandale's head, and a grim warning sounded: "Any more resistance and you will be killed on the spot." ”

Seeing the dead bird draw his gun, Frank was already frightened, and he was full of regret in his heart, he shouldn't have invited this plague god into the store just now.

It's just that she's looking for death, and maybe she'll implicate herself.

Flac's voice was distorted by crying, and he knelt down and begged Solandale: "Please hurry up. Don't get in trouble with me."

However, at this moment, Frank's response was not mockery, but gentle support.

I saw Solandale squatting in front of Frank and reaching out to hold his arm, her figure was obviously very slender, at this time

But it seems to have some kind of accumulated power.

Frank subconsciously raised his head, Solandale was still wearing a long hat, her face was blurred in the shadow cast by the brim, it was difficult to distinguish, but he could see that the blue eyes were full of tenderness and encouragement.

She said to him, "Stand up and don't kneel. ”

With Solandale's support, Frank subconsciously stood up with her, and he stood dumbfounded, staring at Solandale's face, and suddenly had a sense of déjà vu.

Must have seen it.

She. Who is coming?

Before Frank could react to this, Solandale had already turned to face the Death Bird, her voice was not loud, but it was full of an indescribable sense of power: "Do you want to arrest me?" ”

"It's a pity that there isn't a prison in Doguland that can hold me." She lifted off her long hat directly, and her long white and golden hair was scattered in the air, bringing the fragrance of laurel flowers, and her true face was also revealed in front of the eyes of the dead bird at this moment.

The Death Bird was apparently implanted by Chino with some special program, and the moment they recognized Solandelle's appearance, the violent system was forcibly shut down, and Qi Qi put down his guns and stepped aside, making way for them.

Solandale walked forward, rubbing shoulders with the Apostle of Death as if unstoppable.

Frank witnessed a miraculous spectacle for the first time, and most likely for the first time in 10 years, someone was able to break through the blockade of the Dead Bird.

Frank gradually came back to his senses and chased a few steps forward.

When he passed by the Death Bird, he was obviously apprehensive, but he still mustered up the courage to move forward, left the Death Bird behind, chased him outside the door, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Who are you, can you tell me who you are?!" ”

The rain is getting heavier and heavier,

The raging wind filled the alleys, carrying the torrential rain across the road, and Solandelle walked and walked and slowly stopped in the rain.

In the hazy rain, her figure was clearly blurred, but it was like a sun in the rain, shining in Frank's eyes.

"Solandelle." She turned to look at Frank, her voice full of determination and determination, "Your Queen, Solandel Van Dogolander. ”
