My Name is Ke: I am the most beloved person in the world of science

In the restaurant, Zhiyue was wolfing down the food on the table.

Well, you know what, Shirley’s cooking is just better than hers.

Seeing the way she ate, Shirley felt helpless. Afraid that she would choke, she stood up and poured her a cup of hot water.

"Eat slowly, I'm not going to snatch it from you."

"Well...I'm hungry."

It’s only been last night since Zhiyue had her first meal, how could she not be hungry.

"You!" Shirley shook her head, with a hint of doting.

After dinner, Zhiyue lazily lay on the sofa and played Tetris to digest the food, while Shirley was cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen.

Suddenly a phone call came in.

Um, strange number?

She pressed the answer button curiously.

"Mosimoxi?"

"Cointreau, there is a mission that you and Vermouth need to complete."

A deep and attractive male voice came from the receiver.

Zhiyue likes this kind of subwoofer the most and became interested immediately.

"Who are you?"

"..."

The man on the other end was obviously silent for a moment, and then he said lightly: "I'm Rum."

Rum? Zhiyue searched in her mind.

Come to think of it, she had been abroad before and had never seen what real rum looked like.

There are many different versions of him in the organization.

The image that appears later in the anime is a one-eyed, buck-toothed chef, but that is obviously not his real appearance.

There was no response on the other end of the receiver for a long time. Rum picked up the phone and checked. The call was not hung up.

“Cointreau, are you listening?”

"I'm here, honey." Zhiyue replied subconsciously.

"..."Rum: What the hell did I hear?

Is there something wrong with this woman's brain?

"The mission will be done immediately. Vermouth is waiting for you at the airport."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Zhiyue rolled her eyes mercilessly as she looked at the hung up call.

Could you please at least tell me which airport it is? There are so many airports in Japan, who knows which one it is.

Ding--

An email popped up on the phone screen with the flight location information and the words "timeismoney" at the end.

It's very rum.

"What's wrong? Is there a mission?"

After cleaning up the kitchen, Shirley came out and sat next to Zhiyue.

"Yes, and I have to go right away." Zhiyue looked at her apologetically, "I was planning to spend a few days with you."

Shirley will probably know about her sister's death soon and then defect from the organization.

It's a critical moment.

"It doesn't matter. The mission is important. Go quickly."

Shirley smiled and comforted the girl, although she was reluctant to let her leave.

Zhiyue was a little hesitant. It must be a very important task for Rum to call her personally.

but……

Shirley saw her embarrassment and gently touched her head.

"Just go ahead, I'm really fine."

Zhiyue thought that according to the development of the plot, Shirley's life was not in danger.

In fact, she thought about stopping Shirley from becoming smaller, but only in this way could Shirley completely leave the organization.

"Then I'll go. If you run into any trouble, go find Camus. He'll help you. Got it?"

"Okay, I get it. Why are you acting like an old woman?" Shirley said half-jokingly.

"Humph, the old lady is leaving now."

Zhiyue curled her lips, looked at her resentfully, and left.

Shirley stared at the girl's back, feeling a mixture of emotions.

Rice Flower Airport

Absinthe was holding a bunch of Ecuadorian roses, and her long golden hair made her stand out in the crowd.

Many passers-by looked at her, and some brave men came forward to chat with her, but they were all scared away by her cold gaze.

She glanced at her watch.

Why hasn't this little girl come yet? Could it be that she doesn't want to see me?

Just as she was thinking this, a slim figure appeared in her sight.

"I thought you wouldn't come." She smiled and handed over the rose in her hand.

Although Zhiyue didn't want to bother with absinthe, her favorite rose was the pale blue Ecuadorian rose.

She still took the rose and pretended not to care.

"Rum called me personally to invite me. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for him if I didn't come?"

"Okay, let's go."

She walked ahead alone, holding a rose.

Absinthe shook his head.

It seems that it is still too early to get the little girl's forgiveness.

The flight to the United States took a long time.

With the current level of technology, there is nothing much that can help kill time, so Zhiyue fell asleep as soon as he got on the plane.

"Hello, Miss. May I ask——"

Before the stewardess could finish her words, Absinthe made a gesture to keep quiet.

"Shh! My sister is sleeping."

She glanced at the little girl beside her with a gentle expression.

"Sorry for disturbing you."

The flight attendant left the place angrily and went to ask other passengers.

At this point, Absinthe noticed that the little girl flinched, so he leaned over and covered her with his blanket.

When he was about to get up, he saw the faint marks on her neck and frowned unconsciously.

Why does it feel a bit dazzling?
