Man in Armor: I have all the abilities of E-General

Chapter 23 Daily Life and Before the War

Mars Cafe, Xingfu Street, Xicheng District, City D

In the city of D where autumn has already arrived, no one should go out in today's horrible weather with strong winds and dust.

However, a coffee shop located on the side of the road was full of people, and all of them had happy smiles on their faces.

Inside the store, Su Bai was bringing a cup of coffee with a black hole pattern on it to a customer's table.

Then he smiled at the customer, ignored the comments of the customer and her friend, and walked back to the cashier to continue serving the customer who had just come in.

As the customers left, Su Bai was wiping the table and thinking:

"I never thought that the coffee I made would be so popular and even as famous as the Happy Dumpling Restaurant. Is there something wrong with my bloodline?"

"Shouldn't it be hard to drink? Could it be related to feelings?"

In the original drama, Evolto had no emotions when making coffee, so even he himself felt that the coffee he made tasted bad, but in the later ending, the coffee made by Ishido Soichi was exceptionally delicious.

Thinking of this, Su Bai's frown relaxed.

"It seems to be related to emotions. Human emotions are really amazing. Not only can they increase the danger level, but they can also affect other things."

Thinking of this, Su Bai smiled slightly, then he slowly raised his head and looked outside through the glass of the coffee shop.

It was already night time, and outside on the street, only the dim light from the street lamps illuminated the street.

Then Su Bai turned his gaze to the entrance of his own coffee shop.

Then Su Bai saw a middle-aged woman walk into the coffee shop.

"Excuse me ma'am, we are closed."

Su Bai smiled and said.

After hearing what Su Bai said, the middle-aged woman waved her hands hurriedly and said, "I... I'm not here to drink coffee... I'm here to ask if our family is hiring."

Hearing this, Su Bai was stunned at first, and then he began to look at the middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman was about 40 years old, with a sallow complexion, dirty clothes on her thin body, bruises on her wrists and neck, and her scattered hair spread out in front of her like dead grass.

She looked sloppy overall, and if her hair was left hanging in front of her, she could have been COSing as a female ghost. Seeing this, Su Bai's eyes twitched twice.

Does this look like a rescue station?

When the middle-aged woman saw Su Bai's eyes twitching and said nothing, she said anxiously: "I don't even need a salary, just give me a place to live, I can endure hardship!"

Hearing this, Su Bai remained silent. He stared at the middle-aged woman's wrist and analyzed:

This kind of bruises must be more than just the wrists and neck if I'm not mistaken...

Thinking of this, Su Bai smiled and said to the middle-aged woman: "Madam, please roll up your sleeves first, so that I can confirm whether my guess is true."

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman sighed and rolled up her sleeves, revealing large bruises that clearly appeared in Su Bai's eyes.

Su Bai nodded when he saw this. There was no mistake. This middle-aged woman was being abused.

And this behavior must have been going on for a long time, otherwise she wouldn't have come out in such weather wearing farm clothes and without even any luggage.

People who escape after being abused at home will remember the small favors from others, but because of their own experiences, they dare not trust others too much, so it is very troublesome to get along with such people.

Moreover, Su Bai is not a good person. He is the kind of guy who can turn his sister into a violent attacker in front of her brother. He will not pity her just because she is being abused at home.

Su Bai was about to open his mouth to refuse the middle-aged woman, but the next second an idea flashed in his mind.

If emotions can increase the danger level, then the three main emotions of human beings, family, friendship, and love, must be included.

(Because this novel has no heroine, the love story will only appear later, with a very brief description, so don't worry.)

So if I create it myself and then smash it with my own hands, can that also increase the danger level?

Thinking of this, Su Bai smiled at the middle-aged woman and said, "No salary? That won't work. Labor should be paid. We happen to be short of people. You can give it a try."

Hearing this, tears welled up in the middle-aged woman's eyes and she bowed deeply to Su Bai.

"Thank you so much, boss!"

After she finished speaking, her stomach growled. She swallowed and didn't know how to speak to Su Bai.

But Su Bai asked with concern: "You haven't eaten yet? I happen to know a dumpling restaurant that tastes very good."

After saying this, Su Bai saw that the middle-aged woman was hesitant to speak, and nodded in understanding.

"Don't worry, as the boss, of course it's my treat. By the way, I don't know your name yet?"

After saying that, Su Bai walked out of the bar, coughed twice and said, "Then let me introduce myself first. My name is Su Bai, and I'm the owner of this coffee shop. Please give me your guidance."

After saying that, Su Bai extended his right hand to the middle-aged woman.

But the middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, then she retracted her hand and said, "Hello, boss. My name is Qin Shuyi. Are you so enthusiastic to everyone? My hands are too dirty, I'm afraid of dirtying your hands..."

Qin Shuyi's instinct of domestic violence caused her to not dare to believe in other people's kindness, but she was very eager for it, so she kept struggling in her heart about whether she should end the kindness of Su Bai, her future boss.

Just as she was hesitating, Su Bai smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. To me, no one is nobler than anyone else. But everyone has their own unspeakable secrets. I won't ask too much."

Hearing this, Qin Shuyi felt mixed emotions, then she made up her mind and slowly held her hand with Su Bai's.

"Thank you, you are truly the best person I have ever met."

Ding, good guy card.

Su Bai, who was forced to accept the good guy card, was stunned at first, and then walked out of the coffee shop with Qin Shuyi.

After locking the shop door, he took Qin Shuyi and walked towards the Happy Dumpling Restaurant not far away.

The night wind blew past the two of them, causing Qin Shuyi to shiver.

Seeing this, Su Bai said, "Are you cold? Yes, your clothes look quite thin. Let's go eat first, and then I'll look for clothes that are suitable for you."

Hearing this, Qin Shuyi kept thanking Su Bai, but was interrupted by him waving his hand.

"Don't be so polite. I think you are much older than me, so I will call you Aunt Qin. You don't have to call me boss. Just call me by my name, Su Bai."

At this time, the two had arrived at the entrance of the Happy Dumpling Restaurant.

"Squeak~"

The door of the dumpling restaurant was pushed open by Su Bai.

Su Bai and Aunt Qin entered the house, and at the same time the sound of piano reached their ears.

Xinnan was still practicing the piano diligently, while Xiaolan was looking at a fashion magazine and Aunt Hui was wiping the table.

Aunt Hui looked towards the door when she heard the voice, and then she smiled and said, "It's Su Bai. I haven't seen you for a long time. Business is good, right? Hey, who is the person next to you?"

Su Bai, who had already sat down with Aunt Qin, replied, "It's true that I haven't eaten the dumplings made by Aunt Hui for a long time. The store has been busy recently. This is Aunt Qin, the waitress I just hired."

Aunt Hui nodded, took the small notebook and menu and came to Su Bai and the others.

"It's better to be busy. You can make money if you are busy. Oh, by the way, what do you want to eat today?"

Hearing this, Su Bai said to Aunt Qin beside him: "Aunt Qin, what do you want to eat?"

Aunt Qin's eyes widened when she looked at the long list of dumplings on the menu. She had never seen so many varieties of dumplings before.

After looking for a while, she clicked on the happy dumpling at the top.

Seeing this, Su Bai asked, "Aunt Hui, what is today's happy dumpling?"

Aunt Hui smiled and said, "Today's happy dumplings are Tremella and Shrimp Dumplings. Is that okay?"

After seeing Aunt Qin nod, Su Bai said, "Okay, two servings."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Hui nodded, put away the menu and notebook, and went to the kitchen.

Aunt Qin glanced at the decoration inside the Happy Dumpling Restaurant, and a warm feeling suddenly surged in her heart. She murmured, "This place looks so happy."

Su Bai ran to sit next to Xin Nan who was practicing the piano.

At this moment, Xinnan was not as talkative as he was during the battle. He seemed to be immersed in the piano and only opened his eyes when turning the pages of the music score.

Su Bai looked for a while and suddenly felt bored, so he sat back next to Aunt Qin.

At this time, Aunt Hui also brought two plates of dumplings and said, "The white fungus and shrimp dumplings are here. Enjoy your meal."

Aunt Qin immediately picked up her chopsticks and started to eat voraciously, but Su Bai did not move his chopsticks.

At this time, Aunt Hui winked at him, and Su Bai walked over.

Aunt Hui took Su Bai to the kitchen door and whispered, "How did you hire this waitress? Why does it feel like she hasn't eaten for a long time? And what's with the bruises on her wrists and neck?"

Su Bai pursed his lips when he heard this: "She came in to apply for the job when I was closing today. I guessed that she must have encountered difficulties, and my store happened to be short of people, so I agreed. It never hurts to do a good deed every day."

After hearing what Su Bai said, Aunt Hui sighed and said, "Aunt Hui knows that you have a kind heart, but for things like this, you still have to do it within your ability."

"Don't worry Aunt Hui, I know what's going on."

After saying that, Aunt Hui patted Su Bai on the shoulder, and then Su Bai returned to his seat.

At this time, Aunt Qin had finished eating the dumplings, but she didn't seem full. That's right, the portion at the Happy Dumpling Restaurant was still too small.

Seeing this, Su Bai pushed his dumplings in front of Aunt Qin and said, "Aunt Qin, you are not full, I will give you this one too."

Aunt Qin quickly shook her head and said, "You haven't eaten yet. You've been very good to me. I can't eat this plate of dumplings anymore."

Su Bai smiled and said, "It's okay. These two portions were originally ordered for you. I've already eaten them. Don't worry."

After he finished speaking, seeing that Aunt Qin still refused to eat, he made up a story and whispered it to Aunt Qin.

"There was a little boy whose father would go out to hang out with his friends every day. He would always come back drunk, and he wouldn't care if the boy's mother worked in the fields all day."

"He would find all kinds of excuses to abuse his wife. After some time, the little boy left school early and saw his father beating his mother. He rushed to protect his mother, but was severely beaten by his father."

"And the mother who had endured it silently fought back against the little boy's father for the only time, and that was of course the last time."

"One day, when the little boy got home from school, he didn't see his mother. Only his father, who was drinking alone, sat at the table. He told the little boy that his mother had run away."

"But the little boy didn't believe it. He went into the cellar of his home on a day that was neither cold nor hot and found his mother's body."

"Finally, as the little boy grew up, he took his father to court, and with irrefutable evidence, his father was put in jail."

"Although his father got the punishment he deserved, the boy was not happy because his mother would not come back either."

"He still often thinks back to that scene. He wonders...if someone could have helped his mother at that time, then the subsequent events would not have happened. But it's all just empty talk."

As the story ended, Su Bai felt the tears streaming down his eyes in surprise. It had been a long time since he last cried, and this was just a made-up story, so why would he cry?

He used the blood energy in his body to evaporate his tears, and then looked at Aunt Qin.

At this time, Aunt Qin seemed to feel the same way and was already crying. Seeing this, Su Bai took out a few tissues from his pocket and handed them to Aunt Qin.

Then he said, "Aunt Qin, eat quickly. After you finish eating, I will find you a place to stay."

Hearing this, Aunt Qin wiped her tears with a tissue, nodded, and then started eating.

After Aunt Qin finished eating, Su Bai said goodbye to Aunt Hui, found a house for Aunt Qin, and returned to the underground laboratory.

Just now when he was listening to Xinnan playing the piano, he saw the newspaper on the table. Tomorrow is the day when Xinnan will participate in the competition, so King Kai’s action will also begin.

Although Su Bai was not sure whether the story would go according to plan, he still had to make the necessary preparations.

So he called Zhang Yiqing, told him the general situation, and then hung up.

He walked into the Smasher training room and glanced at the two Smashers with his reconnaissance eye.

[Bull Smasher] Danger Level: 3.5

[Horn Sheep Smasher] Danger Level: 3.4

After seeing the data of the two fierce fighters, Su Bai nodded, then took out the knowledge bottle and the magic ginseng bottle from his arms and stuffed them into the bodies of the two fierce fighters.

Then the reconnaissance eye swept again.

Shadow Base

In the cave, two psychic beasts about two meters and three meters tall stood beside King Kai. They were psychic beasts that had undergone the shadow fusion technique.

【Mosquito Beast】

The head of the mutant mosquito, with a long snout extending forward, a pair of red eyes of a mosquito, and a pair of green eyes of a fly.

Its body is a fusion of the armor-like shell and giant wings of the Flymon.

As for its hands, one is the sharp claw of an evil mosquito beast, and the other holds a meteor hammer shaped like a virus.

[Scorpion Spider Beast]

There are six eyes on its head, and a pair of huge claws on its mouth that keep opening and closing.

Its body seemed to be wearing purple and gold armor, and the armor was covered with spikes.

The hands are a pair of giant scorpion pincers.

There are also six purple-gold spider legs on its back, and every time it is waved, a sound of breaking through the air can be heard.

The tail is a scorpion tail wrapped in purple gold armor, and the poisonous stinger at the end of the scorpion tail is always ready to attack the enemy.

King Kai smiled victoriously upon seeing this, and the two mutant beasts beside him also let out high-pitched roars.
