Unexpectedly, Professor Nino's friends live in the honeyhive, and even in Melina's lair.

It's right next door to the Belém house.

A chic villa is built on a relatively high man-made slope, three storeys high, with a multi-dimensional stargazing tower. The garden is fenced off and far from the ecology.

In the cosy garden are six small greenhouses.

Outside, there are also boxy mounds of pebbles, several of which are lined with golden trees and colorful ...... on the branches Chili pepper.

Melina looked at the small villa with some suspicion.

"Isn't this Professor Accardo's house?"

That's right.

This villa is right next door to Villa Melina, and the property of Professor Accardo across the wall from Professor Belém.

Nino confidently went up and rang the doorbell.

She turned her head and said:

"I've known Accardo for a long time, we used to take classes in the same department, and she was very talented and had her own opinions......"

Melina nodded thoughtfully, and made up some stories in her mind.

"I haven't seen you in a while, Nino."

With a quiet hello, a banshee appeared in the doorway.

As soon as she appeared, she caught Melina's attention.

It's not because this banshee is beautiful, and it's not because the other party's temperament is like a cold delicate puppet. It's because... The banshee wears a somewhat comical sheer raincoat that covers her entire body, with a dress skirt underneath, and a hard hat on her head, and gardening scissors in her left hand and a ... Chili pepper?

It's really shocking...

As shocking as Sonia?

Even the senior sister has never dressed so weirdly......

Melina was shocked by the other person's outfit and forgot to say hello.

Professor Nino noticed this, and laughed a little gloomily:

"It's still the same, Accardo."

Melina came back to her senses, her gaze running over her long, black hair and red eyes. The other party looked up very sensitively, and Melina's peeking at the other party's behavior was clearly seen, so she could only nod awkwardly.

Accardo nodded as well, then looked at Nino:

"Who is this?"

Nino laughed:

"Melina, a very good banshee, is also my good friend."

Her friendship with Melina began with playing cards late at night, and the two played cards on behalf of different clockwork cat teams, and the losing side could only drink non-alcoholic fruit wine for a night, which was really enough torture to meow.

Nino was naturally able to say 'this is my friend'.

Accardo blinked, looked down, and put the pepper at his feet before saying:

"You're able to make friends and make people happy."

She said that she was happy, but her expression did not change at all, and at the same time, what she said almost broke Nino's defense.

Melina watched from the side, and couldn't help but compare her imaginary picture of the other party in her heart.

In her heart, the banshee named Accardo is at least one meter nine tall, and in terms of appearance, she must be a very royal sister, with super long hair, and her clothes are also perfect.

But the person in front of you?

The outfit is simply slippery and funny.

Is this Accardo?

It's completely different from the tall crazy beauty vampire in my mind.

Even though she was scolding, Melina greeted her in a friendly manner:

"Hello, I'm Melina, it's the first time I've met you, and I'll get along well as neighbors in the future, and teach each other."

"Fortunately."

It took a second for Accardo to realize that he was not too indifferent, so he tilted his head and lifted the pepper in his hand:

"Chili, eat together?"

…

Inexplicably, it came to lunch.

Chili-flavored minced pork beans, chili-flavored tenderloin, eye meat, and pork belly, chili-flavored fried rice, chili-flavored shrimp, oysters, crabs, and fish cutlets.

"Drink, what do you want to drink, what about water? Or tea? ”

"I want orange juice and half a cup of Clockwork Cat Special Brew, where's Xiaomei?"

"It's good to be like Nino."

Accardo let out a fluttering 'um', not knowing if he heard it, and walked away like a ghost.

Melina took advantage of the other party's departure to get a drink, and asked Nino in a low voice:

"Isn't your friend a little too fond of chili peppers?"

"Mmmmmmmm

“……”

"Hmm! This eyemeat is exquisite! ”

“？”

Melina's eyes widened:

"You've already eaten it?"

Nino, whose mouth was stuffed with meat and added a spoonful of fried rice, looked at her blankly:

"Or else? I'm hungry. ”

"Really, are you a little more conscious of being a guest at someone else's house?"

Melina felt that she was simply not too obedient compared to Nino.

Nino swallowed the meat, and showed a smile that was no longer gloomy, but sunny:

"It's a good time... Oh, it's delicious. ”

"Are you listening to someone? Miss Nino who doesn't listen to people. ”

Nino looked at her:

"What's the point? The rice is brought out, and the dishes are brought out, just to eat. If you are too restrained, are you making friends, or are you following the [Tutorial for Making Friends]? ”

"This ......"

"Whether it's a guest or a dinner with friends, it's all about being close and not about certain rules. Besides, this eye meat is really delicious, and it would be a waste not to eat it. ”

Melina was convinced.

That's when Accardo returned.

As Nino said, she didn't look at the food that had been moved, nor did she say anything, but just put a large glass full of drinks in front of the two of them, and said quietly:

"Drinks."

The man turned and walked to the kitchen and brought out another plate of fried chili peppers.

Melina bit her lower lip.

How much do you love chili peppers?

The look was misunderstood, and Accardo said:

"I was worried that I wouldn't be able to accept it, so I took it out in the end."

She said as she spooned a full amount of chili peppers and put it on top of the fried rice, and...

Click.

Seeing Accardo's cheeks bulging like a little hamster, Melina didn't find this action cute for the first time, but a mental spicy pain appeared on her. The tip of the tongue is almost burning.

There's no such thing as a food and a word.

Nino says:

"There's one more thing besides letting you know my friend."

Accardo quietly chewed the chili pepper, and his eyebrows finally had a feeling of happiness.

"Hmm."

Nino smiled gloomily:

"Melina is the inventor of the broom, and she wants a system that can take off quickly."

“…”

Melina felt Accardo's gaze on hers.

Accardo put down the bowl.

"Can I know the first case of flight design?"

Eh, is this the beginning?

Melina has been to a handful of technical exchanges, and she will talk nonsense before starting, talking about inconsequential topics.

But...

Melina's eyes sharpened:

This may be one of the rules of Nino's level, this small circle.

It's straightforward, and it's exactly what I want.

Melina Says:

"Of course."

“…”

There is no follow-up.

Just as Melina was surprised, Accardo picked up the bowl again and said softly:

"I'll talk about it after eating."
