67.Victoria Bitter
The witches who had left the airship early were already sitting around the campfire and gagging, and the atmosphere was as cheerful as a party scene. The charcoal fire is blazing in the barbecue grill, and the barbecue skewers with ingredients rotate automatically on the stove.
The principle is to construct a continuous set of [Cooking Magic Barbecue] techniques, let it control the barbecue sticks, add spices and keep the charcoal fire burning, which is a high-level magic, much more difficult than the magic used to make tea.
In the photography team, there are many witches with high abilities. They seem to be slender and weak, and when they want to fight, they are more ruthless than the other.
Fujinaga mentioned that the lighting division used to be a self-defense officer of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, and after retiring, he came to work as a lighting division at the magazine under the Fujinaga Foundation, and sometimes worked part-time as a security guard for the team. The rest of the staff also have a skill that should not be underestimated.
Fujinaga's appearance instantly silenced the noisy witches, their expressions like students who were still talking when the bell rang, and they were caught by the head teacher who suddenly passed by.
The heart is weak, frightened, and all kinds of emotions are knocked to the ground, and the facial expressions become rich and varied.
"Miss Fujinaga...... Good evening. ”
The witches put down the beer and skewers in their hands, for fear of being criticized by the boss on the spot.
The witch who has seen the temper of this eldest lady is worried that she will be blamed, although it is not necessarily working time now, as long as the boss says yes, then it must be.
The camp was silent, and the sound of the waves crashing on the shore and the crackling of charcoal fires became clear. The atmosphere dropped to freezing, and everyone did not dare to breathe loudly.
"You can play, but don't interfere with work, it's best to go to bed before two o'clock, gather at half past four in the morning to start shooting, and after filming, there is still a lot of time to catch up on sleep and free activities, don't delay the shooting because of personal matters. Rest early, and I'll take Miss Sakuma to familiarize yourself with the environment first. ”
Fujinaga, who is only seventeen years old this year, stands inexplicably like an elderly company cadre in front of a group of witches in their twenties. Ordinary speeches were taken as admonitions, and the witches didn't even dare to raise their heads too high.
The lightsmith, who had been a mercenary, also stood in the middle of this group of people, tall and respectful, with a respectful expression on his face, obviously succumbing to the power of capital for a long time.
Money, power and status are insurmountable barriers for ordinary people, and if Fujinaga's identity is replaced by an ordinary passerby witch, this group of witches will definitely not obey and willingly accept her orders.
They almost wrote "don't go quickly" on their faces, and Ruiji saw everything clearly, but not broken.
The strict management style makes the employees at the bottom feel dissatisfied, and they are only tolerant of the negative feelings brought by the workplace because of the salary, and they are submissive in front of the boss.
Fujinaga seems to be the kind of witch who will be particularly strict and even force her employees. She is cruel to others, and even more ruthless to herself behind her back.
The atmosphere was so embarrassing that it was stagnant, and the parties didn't know whether it was intentional or careless, but they didn't feel that there was anything wrong. Ruiji can't stand the scene of everyone's silence, and by the way, she wants to help this friend save his respect.
"The eldest lady means to have fun and not to care about us. Last but not least, take a break, get to work on time in the morning, and have a good night. ”
After saying that, she pulled Fujinaga away and left some private space for the witches of the photography team.
An event with a boss is not destined to be fun unless the boss can mingle with the employees. That's basically impossible, like royalty and commoners, capitalists and employees, the two have different starting points, and empathy for each other is just a beautiful illusion.
The two walked hand in hand across a narrow stretch of white sand, the dense palm trees blocking the campfire, the noise of people, the clatter of glass wine bottles, the sizzle of charcoal barbecue, all hidden in the gentle sound of the waves.
There are a lot of glowing coral reefs growing under the shallows, and the tourists who walk on the beach don't need to use lighting work or magic, and the water will always appear a light blue with a layered color, and the deeper the water, the darker the light.
The sand beneath your feet is illuminated by the glowing water, and the tiny sand is very similar in color to finely ground silver.
It's rare to see a beach like this in Japan.
"You've picked a good place to impress those tricky readers."
Ruiji called up the camera function of his mobile phone and took a set of photos of the shallows and sand, and sent them to Shizuru, who was still on the field in Kyushu. The time difference between Japan and Sydney is only one hour, and now Japan is just getting ready for midnight.
Midnight happens to be the best time for the Witch to work, all kinds of strange talk will wander around, as expected, Shizuru really has no time to reply, she will put her phone to do not disturb mode when she works.
Ruiji is not worried about the safety issue, at this stage, Shizuru can fight better than her, and secondly, there is not only one witch who goes to Kyushu together, but there are also five other witches who are traveling with her.
Along the way, they barely spoke.
On the way, he passed a large gray rock with a smooth top, and Fujinaga chose it as a temporary rest area, and bought two bottles of beer in brown cylindrical glass bottles at a nearby beach convenience store.
The beer bottle looks like a pesticide in any way, and the name is Victoria Bitter, a famous beer from Victoria, Australia.
"I highly recommend you give this one a try, it's very top-notch."
"The eldest lady also drinks civilians' things?"
"Please, I'm just a little impersonal, and I'm not ignorant of the world, and I'm cutting myself and society into two parts. The witches I know may despise the common people, and they don't drink cheap beer for 300 yen a can and eat instant noodles for 450 yen a box. That's okay with me, I often take the opportunity of my job to sneak something rebellious. ”
Fujinaga flicked open the iron cap that locked the mouth of the bottle with his bare hands, and immediately poured a large gulp.
"Shhh...... Refreshing. ”
"Oh my God, you have refreshed my perception of you."
Ritch followed her steps and pried open the cap and took a sip.
The taste of Victoria Bitter is a little subtle to her, there is a faint malt aroma, not sweet at all, the bitterness is very strong, it will not feel refreshing after drinking, except for a little tingling on the tip of the tongue, the rest is all bitter.
The bitterness dissipates quickly, rounding up equals nothing to drink, and her evaluation is not as good as two or three yuan of soft girl coins of Liquan beer ().
Despite not liking it, Riji endured to finish the beer. The process of sipping is enjoyable in itself, with beautiful sea views and a comfortable evening breeze that can bring the bad taste as low as possible.
The taste of the rich is really difficult to fathom, and Fujinaga drank one bottle and still felt that it was not enjoyable, so he went to buy two more bottles. A witch has gone from a meticulous learner to a drunken Mengzi who drinks with a sullen head, and there must be something hidden in it.
"Are you out of love? Or is it that being alienated by its employees makes you feel a strong gap in your mood? ”
