Chapter Seventy-Eight: Grandpa Emile
The east had just turned white, and the sky was beginning to lighten.
Tezuka came out of the shower and saw this scene, recalling that since he met her in Germany, his emotions would always interrupt his daily routine.
Now all he had to do was sleep, he dried his hair, lay down in bed and fell asleep.
After rescuing the seahorse, Rico couldn't sleep while lying in bed, and couldn't wait to go to the game to rescue the seahorse immediately. She sneaked into the basement and sat on a chair to guard the seahorses and games lying in the instrument.
After a while, Lico, who was squatting next to Guiping, quickly fell asleep. When the maid entered the basement to refill them with the nutrient solution, she found her and called the Emir's butler, who had just gotten up.
"The kid is still worried about them, afraid that something will happen to them." The emir's butler staggered in.
"Yes, it's really different from what is rumored by the outside world." The maid voiced a long-standing doubt.
"If it's really the same as the outside world rumored, she won't let a few people from Muto Games enter the game here, but obviously they are also trapped now." The emir said proudly.
"yes, let's find a way to get Miss Rico back to her room and go to sleep." The maid reminded.
"Call Tezuka Kunimitsu to come." He said meaningfully.
Tezuka was called to the basement by the maid half-asleep. He rubbed his eyes and found that there was a person lying next to Gui Ping's instrument, and when he walked in, who else could it be if it wasn't Rico?
He washed his face at the sink in the basement to make himself more sober.
Tezuka turned around and carried her out of the basement and was led by the maid to the room arranged last night, where he put Rico on the bed, carefully covered the quilt and set the temperature of the air conditioner.
When he went to his room and wanted to continue sleeping, his usual self-discipline allowed him to go outside the villa and exercise.
When he returned to the house, it was almost time to eat, so he habitually took a shower and changed his clothes.
When Tezuka walked to the door of Rico's room, he heard the sound of a mobile phone ringing inside. He thought that she should go to work today, but she stayed up too late yesterday, walked straight into the room, and picked up the phone.
"Ricole, it's time to go to work, why hasn't it arrived yet? It can't be an accident. Levi's voice came from the phone.
"I'm Tezuka, we rescued Seto Kaima last night, and it was too late, she just fell asleep." Tezuka explained in a serious manner.
"Really?" Levi looked surprised: "Yesterday he was still discussing with me how to save him." ”
"Ah, someone gave us an IP address and stumbled upon the whereabouts of the seahorse."
"Great, tell Rico to tell her to get some rest, I'm going to drag those bone-gnawing guys for a day today anyway." Levi hung up the phone in a good mood.
Tezuka heard the tone on the other end of the phone, and sighed softly: "Sure enough, there is a kind of subordinate who has a leader, and he also learned from you." ”
Rico woke up from her sleep in an instant and looked at the sighing face.
"What's wrong?"
Tezuka noticed the voice on the bed and pretended to be calm: "It's okay, breakfast is almost ready, why don't you get up and eat breakfast." I said hello to the housekeeper over there before I ran, telling the bodyguards not to come and pick you up, so that you can get a good night's sleep today. ”
"Ah, thank you." Ricle was so embarrassed that she turned over to the wall.
"I just told Levi what we did yesterday, and he said to help you stop those people for a day so that you can have a good rest." Tezuka looked at the back of her head and read her thoughts.
"Ahh As if she had been pierced by her thoughts, Rico blushed instantly. "Get up and have breakfast."
She got out of bed to wash up and followed Tezuka to the restaurant.
"Miss Rico, you're awake, I originally planned to let them keep a copy so that you can wake up and eat later." Grandpa Emir quipped, "Today is thanks to Tezuka-san, otherwise you are in the basement, and we wouldn't know how to get you to sleep in your room for a while." ”
When Rico heard this, she wanted to bury her head under the table.
"Grandpa Emir, don't make fun of her, I saw her early in the morning, and my shyness never stopped." Tezuka learns from Fuji Fox to talk back
"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it, you can eat." After the dishes were served, Grandpa Emir withdrew from the living room with a smile.
Looking at a large number of dishes on the table that were his favorite dishes, Rico couldn't help but sigh: "Grandpa Emir has such a good memory, they are all my favorite foods." ”
"I can see that you are very attached to him." Tezuka inadvertently tempted.
The two ate the delicious food on the table and talked.
"Of course, Grandpa Emir was the one who had the ability to protect us at that time, and often helped the three of us escape the punishment of Gonzaburo." Rico continued in a good mood: "After Gonzaburo's death, Kaiba Seto took over the company, and we took him over to the German villa to preside over the family's affairs. ”
"Sure enough, he's a nice guy." Tezuka nodded.
After eating, Tezuka follows Riko to the basement and sees a heart rate graph connected to the new machine
"Look, a few of them are doing well in this game, and it should be too late for you to save them." Grandpa Emir comforted: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself every day, isn't the company still controlled by Levi?" ”
"Ah, I'm going to have a good day of rest today." Rico felt the care from her loved ones, and her tense nerves slowly relaxed.
"Heart rate monitoring system?" Tezuka wondered: "Why do you feel that they are alive and well in the game when they install this new system?" ”
"They're just looking like a vegetative state now, and the heart rate monitoring is just a warning to us when they're having a big hit in the game. All the code passed by the Seahorse Seren from the game has been collected, and we are waiting for Sampson to crack it out to see if there is any way for them to come out on their own. Rico explained the butler's operation.
Rico turned to Tezuka, who was standing in front of her, "I'm so sleepy, I have to go to sleep again." There is also a study room here, and we usually like to stay in the study room to study this new thing, as well as tennis magazines, do you take care of yourself first? ”
Tezuka looked at her, as if he was looking at an old friend who had known him for a long time, and felt very relieved: "You go to sleep by yourself, I have to wait for a bodyguard to ask him to bring me books, and then go to the study to study more of the homework that I have missed in the third year of high school." ”
"Okay, see you at lunch." Rico walked out of the basement and waved.
Tezuka left the basement, went to the study, took out a book he had always wanted to read, and sat in the courtyard waiting for the car to come from there.
"You're a friend that Miss made at school in Japan this time." The emir chatted with Tezuka in a hurry.
"Huh? Didn't she make friends at school before? He was amazed.
"I don't know, it's just that she never brings people to her house to play. Later, she didn't go to school at all, so she stayed at home and occasionally ran out for 1-2 days. ”
"Am I the first person to be brought into the house?" Tezuka listened to this sentence in amazement.
"Hehe, that's why I saw at first glance that you were someone she approved." The emir's butler smiled and sat down beside him: "They are all good children, and it is the only way for a new person to replace an old servant, but if I have never married a wife and had children in my life, I may have a desolate end in my old age, but they let me continue to be in charge at home." ”
"Rico said you treat them like grandchildren." Tezuka remembered Rico's words at breakfast today.
"That's just that they exalted me too much, and in that case, everyone would do that." The old housekeeper couldn't help but laugh.
At this time, a maid came out: "Grandpa Emir, the ingredients you ordered to buy early in the morning have been bought. ”
"Well, that thing doesn't eat the locals in Germany, but for Miss Rico, it's a great delicacy. You can test that dish in my interview, you can do it well. The butler admonished solemnly.
"Okay." The maid returned to the house and went into the kitchen to clean up the ingredients.
"Didn't they live in the U.S. before?" Tezuka was skeptical when he heard Emir's words.
"They used to live in the United States and put me in Germany to look after their home. A few people occasionally come here to live for a while, but Gui Ping doesn't come much, probably because he is too young to go to school. Emile laughed happily as he thought about the good memories he had before.
"I see." Tezuka looks like he knows it all in his chest.
After a while, a car was parked at the gate of the courtyard, and the bodyguard got out of the car with his things.
He got up and went to the door to pick up something.
"Aren't you going back to that villa?" The bodyguard asked.
"Looking at her like that, I guess I don't want to go back." Tezuka replied.
"Then let's come over directly!" The bodyguard suggested.
"Huh?" Tezuka wondered, "Aren't you the father of the trace department who arranged to protect him?" Now that he's back, your mission should be over. ”
"On the contrary, although we have been clearly ordered to protect the Traces, we are in fact protecting Miss Rico from the slightest harm in Germany."
"Okay, it's really useless for me to scold you according to Rico's temperament, and you can tell her that when the time comes. In addition to accepting the traces of her kindness, other people will struggle even if they accept it. Tezuka said, taking what he handed over.
"But the young master of the trace department said that Miss Li Ke knew that the chairman of the trace department arranged for bodyguards to protect her." The bodyguard outside the car is unknown.
"That's because she's like me, sometimes she likes to be tough." Tezuka jokingly said "bye-bye" to them and entered the courtyard.
