Chapter 38: Addicted to the Pull Light
Half an hour later, when Vinia entered the door with a large bag of ingredients she bought, she was directly stunned.
I saw Charlotte, Elijah, and Fina, like three plaster statues, standing at the table.
Fina didn't wear knight's armor today, but instead wore a sunny-looking orange plaid dress, no different from the average girl-next-door. She pulled her long silver-white hair into a single ponytail, and her gestures showed her intellectual demeanor.
A pair of choppy pairs that just fit on the table, as if this would relieve a lot of stress.
In stark contrast to her fiery figure, her cold eyes without waves seemed to be looking into the unknown distance, could it be that she was recalling the glorious years of swords and swords on the battlefield in the past?
And Ilya had already pulled up her long blonde hair at this time, and tied it into a single ponytail.
Ilya seemed to be fighting against an enemy who didn't exist, and she stubbornly looked ahead as deeply as she could, sitting on the table trying to pretend to be a lady.
However, her eyes are empty but lack depth, so she looks cute and naïve.
The two girls sat opposite each other with such empty eyes, Charlotte didn't know what expression to use to face the situation.
He couldn't help but ask three questions of his soul:
Who am I, where am I, and why am I enduring this torment?
In the end, the expression on his face was assimilated, and his brain completely gave up thinking, looking ahead with the same empty eyes.
"You ...... What are you doing? Charlotte, why not entertain guests? Venia looked at her brother with disgust.
Charlotte's lost eyes refocused, and he let out an "oh" and stood up as if he had been pardoned to make tea at the restaurant.
And the aroma of the ingredients brought by Venia made Ilya's upright little nose twitch a few times, and her eyes refocused.
She looked at Fina, who was sitting opposite, snorted, crossed her waist, and said:
"Well, I'll admit that you're pretty good, Miss Knight...... But next time, I won't throw in the towel so easily! ”
“??????”
Fina tilted her head slightly, looking confused.
She's been sitting here in her normal state since just now.
It seems that Miss Ilya is always fighting with some unknown being.
"Well, come on." She had to clench her fists and encourage the other party.
A moment later, Charlotte brought the herb tea from the kitchen to the two beauties at the table, and then he returned to his seated state.
Fina's slender jade hand rubbed the teacup, and when she saw the black tea, she seemed to think of the case a few days ago.
Jenny's disappearance was a very unexpected situation, and many people said at the time that John had passed through the gates of hell and taken Jenny with him.
But the Knights obviously couldn't believe this statement, and still followed up on the matter, but the effect of the follow-up was not obvious.
This tricky case also brings up another hidden concern in Fina's heart, she is about to speak to Charlotte, but is interrupted by Venia.
"Oops, I accidentally bought a little too many carrots, tomatoes and pumpkin...... What to do? ”
Charlotte, who really didn't want to suffer again, stood up and took the initiative to raise her hand and ask:
"Sister, let me make some vegetable porridge to drink!"
In the eating habits of Sophia, porridge is a relatively rare type.
Venia's carefully drawn eyebrows were curved, and her beautiful eyes glanced at Charlotte, her face full of distrust.
"You...... Do you make vegetable porridge? ”
In her mind, Charlotte has always been a kitchen killer since she was a child. Not to mention vegetable porridge, even the simplest omelette can be made into the appearance of charcoal-grilled slugs.
"Oh, boys don't know how to cook, it's understandable, many of our boys in the White Rose Order rely on the cheap food stall restaurants of the non-commissioned officer school every day."
The non-commissioned officer school in Fina's mouth, the full name is the Frank King Non-commissioned Officer School, which is the station of the Frank Collar Branch of the White Rose Knights.
"In fact, if you are not picky, the dine-in at the non-commissioned officer school is not bad...... Like grilled buckwheat bread, grilled cheese pancakes, spicy tops ......"
On Fina's cold and handsome face, a trace of aftertaste appeared.
When Venia heard the names of these dishes she reported, she looked distressed: "What kind of cheap pre-made dishes are these, I must let Miss Fina eat something delicious today." ”
The Charlotte siblings could see that Fina had no time to improve her cooking skills because of the knight's long-term work abroad.
Charlotte stood up: "Sister Venia, you have been working hard lately, you can rest, just make the bread food ready." ”
With that, he put on his apron and went into the kitchen, leaving behind three suspicious women.
Entering the kitchen, he washed his hands and exhaled, recalling the recipes he used to make when he used to go to work.
As a senior single otaku, he couldn't bear the torture of takeaway and convenient fast food, so he downloaded food software and began to teach himself, and after a long period of practice, he actually achieved a small success.
And through the last Torly murder, Charlotte already knows that the knowledge barrier in this world is serious, and I am afraid that this set of laws also acts on the food system.
It is likely to be a gastronomic desert, and the understanding and control of "taste" is in the hands of a large family of gastronomy that has been passed down from generation to generation.
Although Charlotte didn't dare to say that she was a food genius and chef in her previous life, she was still very confident that she could come up with good dishes after years of single life.
He first roasted the shiitake mushrooms, then marinated the lemon and chicken breasts together and steamed them.
The cooked chicken breast was placed on the cutting board, and Charlotte picked up the chef's knife in her right hand, turned it around in her hand in a dashing circle, and began to quickly cut the chicken breast.
Dada......
The chef's knife collides with the chopping board, making a crisp tapping sound that sounds pleasant.
The chicken breast is cut into crystal clear filaments, and the shredded meat and shiitake mushroom slices are baked together, and the chicken essence is used for seasoning in another world.
Then came the process of cutting vegetables, and Charlotte suddenly had a whim, since she has an ability here, can she also chop vegetables in the air like in the food movie?
As he spoke, he threw various vegetables and fruits into the air, then mobilized the aether energy, and began to swing his arms gracefully, and the kitchen knife slashed in a dazzling and gorgeous arc in mid-air.
Charlotte was indulging in the kitchen with a knife light, completely unaware of the kitchen door, and the three girls were already dumbfounded.
"Miss Venia, your brother is usually at home...... Is it all like this? Fina had a complicated expression.
"Nope." Venia's head shook like a rattle.
Only Ilya looked at Charlotte's tall and straight back, and her eyes fluctuated like a deep pool.
Half an hour later, Charlotte put a pot of mixed vegetable and chicken porridge on the table.
