By the time I had set up the menu and followed the guards into the castle, it was already completely dark.

Song Lan wanted to have a good look at the residence of the largest consortium of the coalition government, but it backfired, and he was blindfolded after leaving the restaurant and getting into the car, and when he got out of the car and heard the door open, he had already arrived at the kitchen door of the consortium, and the behavior of the guards was not so much to guide the way as to escort the prisoners.

Song Lan didn't even stay at the door for too long before she was "invited" into the kitchen by the stern knight.

He was greeted in the kitchen by a blonde girl who looked to be in her early twenties, wearing her trademark maid uniform and a pair of slightly rustic black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose.

Unexpectedly, the knight of the pro-guard team did not follow up this time, and he was very relieved to hand over Song Lan to the maid.

"You're number 13."

When leading the way, she whispered beside Song Lan.

"What 13th?"

"Of course, it's the 13th chef to be brought here, and I hope you are mentally prepared for the fact that the previous applicants have failed."

"Failed?"

Song Lan followed the maid into the back kitchen, and asked casually, "Then what happened to them?" ”

Hearing this, the maid who was walking in front suddenly stopped.

The smile on her face changed, and there was an eerie aura all over her body.

"The eldest lady has a pet dog in the backyard, well, it's not the same as you think, it's much bigger, it's not only very difficult to clean, but it's also surprisingly large every day...... The chefs who failed before should now be reunited in its belly. ”

What a dark culinary world!

No, not even the dark culinary world has taken such a harsh punishment for failed chefs!

"Poof, you really believe it."

Seeing Song Lan's solemn face, the maid covered her mouth and chuckled, returning to her lively and cheerful appearance when she first met, "Of course, those losers were sent home, but we will still pay for the hard work...... But looking at the way you looked just now, you should really believe that the eldest lady would do this, right? ”

Faced with the maid's questioning, Song Lan could only smile back with an embarrassed smile.

In just a few words, he could be sure that this maid, who looked about his age, was definitely black-bellied.

He did believe that Isabel would do such a thing, so he had already pondered another serious question in his mind - whether the night heron could eat the giant pet dog described by the maid.

"Alright, let's start preparing the ingredients first, and I'll help you."

The maid skillfully picked up the kitchen knife, and then stretched out her smooth and delicate hands to the paws of the night heron on Song Lan's shoulder.

"What are you doing, what do you want to do!?"

The night heron felt a chill and immediately flapped its wings and yelled at the maid.

"Hey, the ingredients are talking!"

The maid also stopped her movements in surprise, staring at the strange bird on Song Lan's shoulder with wide eyes.

"She's not an ingredient, she's my important friend and assistant."

Song Lan took a step back, widening the distance between himself and the maid, with the maid's series of performances just now, he really believed that the other party would stab the other party.

"Yes, I'm the chef's best assistant!"

The night heron also proudly puffed up its chest and proudly introduced itself.

"Where did you catch her? I've never seen a talking bird before! ”

"This is a fateful encounter, one day I was in the harsh desert when I was looking for precious ingredients when I was attacked by the Grim Reaper Crab, and the nutritional injections and water bottle I was carrying were lost in the process of escaping, I thought I would die in the desert like this, but when I fell to the ground and lost consciousness, she appeared in front of me and led me to the nearby village."

Song Lan gave full play to her ability to come as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Huh? Am I that good? ”

Yelu muttered to herself suspiciously, feeling the maid's probing eyes, she also glared back without showing weakness, she now has Song Lan's support and fearlessness, if there is a fight, she has to bite the other party hard, "Yes, I'm so powerful, don't mess with me!" ”

Her fierce intimidation made the maid laugh, she slowed down, put down the knife in front of the night heron, and smiled softly at the night heron, "I'm sorry, I was mistaken, but I have never heard of such a magical creature in this world." ”

The atmosphere of the conversation eased.

However, Song Lan knew very well that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface, a lively and lovely girl could not be the maid in charge of Isabel's meal, and Madame Kalida's personal guard could not hand him over to the other party so comfortably.

These seemingly peaceful conversations are likely to be designed by the other party.

The purpose is to explore the bottom of the night heron.

But who is he Song Lan? He had already figured out what to do.

"Later, when I came home, I looked up a lot of information about her, and before the Third War there was a bird called the Parrot, which was able to imitate human language, and I guessed that she was a variant of the Parrot."

In 2167, mutated animals are so strange that it is possible for parrots to one day mutate into a new breed that understands human language.

"I've heard of parrots."

The maid nodded thoughtfully, "But she looks much more dangerous than the parrot I remember, and resembles an eagle and a vulture." ”

"You can rest assured that she has a good temper and has never taken the initiative to hurt others."

The maid's smile was still on her face, but her gaze lingered on the night heron for a long time, as if she was thinking about something.

After about thirty seconds, she relented and said, "I trust you, but for safety reasons, she can't leave this kitchen, let alone approach any family member. ”

"Do you hear that, you have to stay in this room obediently and don't run around."

Song Lan touched the head of the night heron, the night heron spread one of its wings very humanely, blocked in front of herself and Song Lan, and deliberately "whispered" in a volume that the maid could hear, "I think they don't welcome us, otherwise let's go back, the head chef is much better than them, and he has never looked down on us!" ”

"You're mistaken, it's all about safety."

The maid stepped forward and said, "If you can provide a dish that satisfies the eldest lady, the consortium will do its best to meet all your requests." ”

The way Song Lan and the night heron whispered made her feel a little funny, which was clearly the appearance of having just come to the big city from the countryside of the neutral country.

She gradually let down her guard, and instead had the urge to talk to this person about the interesting things about the neutral country.

But due to the limitations of her duties, she could not do so.

At this moment, Miss Isabel was still waiting for them, and she sincerely hoped that the other party would make the eldest lady happy, so that they could stay here for a long time.

"I've seen the menu you offered, all the ingredients are ready, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask."

"Well, then I'll get started."

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet."

"Lucie, Rob-Luki."

Song Lan said calmly, "This is my name, what about you?" ”

"You can just call me the head maid like everyone else."

Small Theatre Its One Hundred and One:

Sunday, evening, month, year, month, Sunday.

"Lao Lu, I have to thank you seriously."

"Why do you say that all of a sudden?"

"If you're not the head of counterintelligence, I don't know how many times you're going to be invited to tea."

The topic came to this, and Song Lan suddenly felt something.

It is reported that many people who drank tea from the counterintelligence department were later admitted to the prosthetic hospital for unaccustomed water, food poisoning, or other strange reasons, and even disappeared from people's sight.

"Yes, my men have always wanted to invite you to tea."

Lu Xiang must emphasize that her subordinates and the entire counterintelligence department are not dry food, and the council asked them to find out who actually created the "Salted Fish Program", and they quickly suspected Song Lan according to various clues.

But for the sake of the safety of these young people, Lu Xiang vetoed their proposal to invite Song Lan to tea.

It's not just the counterintelligence department that can make people disappear out of thin air in this world, this is a world full of dangers, and even many of Song Lan's friends have mysteriously disappeared.

"It's so hard for you, how did you convince them?"

"I said I tortured you every day."

"They believe it?"

"Well, don't you always take time off? They all thought it was me who caused it, and recently some people advised me to be lighter with you, after all, they are already willing to believe in you. ”
