Mecha Era for Kitchen

On S[-], the superficial harmony is still maintained. Kano and Olivia don’t know what secret operation they are planning. In the first few days after they arrived in S[-], they could occasionally meet and say hello in the corridor, and since the brief night in the middle of the night, After the conversation, there was no sign of this group of people at all.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Chen Zikai breathed a sigh of relief. While looking at the main road leading to the central square through the glass, he stretched his shoulders and arms. Most of the residents on S[-] work for the Chefs Association. Although the population is much smaller than that of the other five planets of the Six-Star Alliance, the flow of people coming and going usually does not seem so deserted.But in recent days, there are fewer and fewer pedestrians on this street that he can touch at a glance, and even many shops have closed their doors, leaving only one or two intelligent robots standing at the door to provide customers with some simple services.

Of course he knew the reason for this situation, and with his current status, he could only raise his head and let out a long sigh.But what he sighed this time was not just because of the situation—God knows how long he has been bored in the room!The only thing to eat is to sleep, other than to sleep is to lean on the sofa and bask in the sun... Chen Zikai squeezed his waist with a tragic expression. Turned into a big fat pig!

But first, Chairman Li repeatedly hinted at his importance to the Chefs Association, and Olivia tactfully warned him about the tension of the situation. In addition, even if he poked his head out of the room now, he would still have a job with the Chefs Association. When the staff rushed forward, Mr. Chef put his hand on the switch box of the room door and hesitated for a long time, and he still didn't decide whether he should go out or not...

get out!Although it seemed that the two groups of people were about to fight anytime and anywhere, he couldn't stay in the house and pretend to be dead all day without fighting.

But what are you going out for... If you suddenly go out and wander in the street when everyone's nerves are tense, it will probably look particularly abrupt...

Chen Zikai rubbed the tip of his eyebrows in a thoughtful manner, and when he tilted his neck, he happened to catch a glimpse of the two books that were randomly placed on the coffee table. He went to the library to pass the time when he first arrived in S[-]. here.A bright light bulb suddenly appeared on Chen Zikai's head, he picked up the two books explaining seasonings, opened the door and rushed out.

Sure enough, the staff of the Chef's Association also jumped out from an unknown corner at the same moment he went out, put on a respectful smile, and was about to ask the chef if he needed any help or service.

Before the other party could speak, Chen Zikai waved the book in his hand at the employee, and said triumphantly: "I'm going to that library building to return the books, not to hang out. I don't need your help. I'll go first, you continue to stand here Come on, don't worry about me."

The employee of the Chefs Association was left standing in place, looking at Chen Zikai's back, who obviously couldn't completely restrain himself, in silence.

If you leave aside the messy humans and mutants, the relationship between the Six-Star Alliance government, the Imperial Army, and the Chefs Association, Chen Zikai likes S[-] very much.The appearance of this round planet similar to the earth is not as strange as the appearance of the planets he has seen before, and the inside also has the taste of the earth.Both the climate and the geographical environment were much better than the Celeste and S[-] whose entire planet seemed to be wrapped in iron plates. He took a deep breath while walking on the street, and he seemed to be able to smell the faint smell of green grass.

It's a pity that the only place where his homesickness can be soothed will soon be covered by the flames of war.

Chen Zikai originally thought that at such a tense moment, no one would have the leisure to come to such an idle place in the library.But the facts proved that his idea was completely wrong—there are many semi-automatic bookcases reaching to the ceiling regularly in the library. Chen Zikai turned out from the small aisle between the two bookcases and saw a bookcase that he hadn’t seen for a long time. Half of the Sevis family members: "Zhao Ji? Why are you here?"

Zhao Ji didn't seem to be surprised by Chen Zikai's sudden appearance, with a faint smile on his face: "I'm chatting with someone."

"Chat?" Chen Zikai raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look again, and found the fat president of the Station Master Chef Association next to another bookcase ten steps away.He was blocked by books and bookshelves just now, and the other party kept silent, so he didn't notice.

The conversation between the two seems to have come to an end, Zhao Ji looked past Chen Zikai, and looked at the fat old man with the name of the president of the Chef Association with a smile: "It's good that President Li is clear in his heart, I hope I didn't waste my words I don’t have much knowledge, but I still know what a saying in ancient culture is called, ‘If you are not of my race, your heart must be different’, don’t you?”

President Li also smiled: "When people get old, their memory is not so good. You may have heard this sentence before, but since you joined the Chefs Association and started to learn from the teacher, you have forgotten a lot of things. gone."

Standing between the two of them, Chen Zikai happened to be able to see the expressions on their faces clearly, and he also clearly noticed that the smiles on Zhao Ji's and President Li's faces didn't reach his eyes.It seems that the young master of the Zhao family and the Seves family is having an implicit communication with the president of the Chefs Association—but judging from the situation, the communication between the two people does not seem to be very pleasant.

"There are many things that cannot be easily forgotten."

"A lot of things are also forced out by people."

The two of them exchanged two sentences like a charade and then stopped making a sound. They just smiled politely at each other. Chen Zikai was caught in the middle and twitched the corners of his mouth. He felt that the smiles on the faces of these two people had more connotations than the other—— Let's pretend, let's pretend, let's see who of you breaks first.

Then Chen Zikai, who didn't move or didn't move, stiffened.He stood bored in the middle of the vortex created by the collision of their eyes, and a villain popped up in his mind, holding a big horn in one hand and a small red flag in the other——

'Hi everyone!Now it's the live broadcast of the You Laugh Me Too Contest!The two contestants who played this time are experienced in many battles, their skin thickness is comparable to the glass wall of a transport ship, and their small eyes are not weaker than the top players in the alliance with their own searchlights! '

'alright!No more nonsense!Let me broadcast live the game for you!Everyone, please see that the two contestants on the field have used the spring breeze to blow their faces. This kind of smile will not appear too ostentatious, nor will it appear impolite to others. It is really a very high-quality choice in the smile! '

'Eh?The two contestants showed no sign of changing their expressions, as if they were going to fight to the end with this smile!So, who can last longer!Let us wait and see! '

1 minute...'Ah, they're still laughing! '

2 minutes...'Ah, they're still laughing! '

5 minutes... 'Ah...they can't stop laughing! '

'Ah, look!Chairman Li's smile seems to be showing signs of loosening!ah!Mr. Zhao Ji still maintains a flawless and warm smile!Not a single crack in the smile!Chairman Li seems to be about to admit defeat! '

President Li is older, and his facial muscles are not as strong and hardworking as Zhao Ji, so he took the lead to put away his smile, politely nodded at Zhao Ji and Chen Zikai respectively, turned and left.

Chen Zikai looked at his back and blinked, and felt his body relax as he left - the villain who was active in his mind waved a small red flag: "This time you laugh and I laugh at the competition, Zhao Ji vs. President Li , Zhao Ji won the final victory! '

Zhao Ji's smile seemed to stiffen, even the curvature of his mouth didn't change when he turned his head to say goodbye to Chen Zikai.He has some understanding of Chen Zikai's background information, unlike Kano who has an almost blind affection for Chen Zikai, and unlike Olivia who has been in contact with him for a period of time, he naturally does not want to have redundant conversations with him at such a sensitive moment. conversation.

Chen Zikai didn't know him well, so he twitched the corner of his mouth to say goodbye.

Such a strange scene falls in the eyes of caring people, it is really a very beautiful picture——

After finally saying goodbye to President Li and Zhao Ji, the two giant Buddhas, the sound of high-heeled shoes made Chen Zikai's nerves tense again.He rolled his eyes, turned around resignedly, and saw a woman still dressed in bright yellow and wearing a red hat.

... Today's library is really very popular. He has met so many people with so much effort, and they are all people he doesn't really want to see...

Viola obviously stood in an unnoticed corner and listened to the conversation between Chairman Li and Zhao Ji verbatim. She stood in front of Chen Zikai, fiercely clutching the corner of her clothes, her facial expression Extremely ferocious: "None of those humans are good! That Zhao Ji is even more disgusting!"

Eldest sister... I am also human!Be careful what you say, okay?Didn't you see that I'm still alive and standing in front of you!Such scolding, scolded me too...!Chen Zikai shouted silently in his heart, but his face still had a flat expression, and there was not much emotion in his eyes.

Viola didn't care whether he answered or not, and poured out the words with resentment and anger regardless of 21: "At the beginning, they were also people who migrated. Why are we the ones who were abandoned? The government wants to establish six The Star Alliance, so we who are living on other planets are the ones who deserve to be abandoned? Without the most cutting-edge technology, in order to survive, we have to become monsters that are neither human nor ghost, because of the problems caused by genes, Some mutants who can't restrain their nature kill each other! Why do people come to kill us all?! What's wrong with Mr. Chen Qiming? What's wrong with us? He keeps saying that it's for the sake of the overall situation, for the peace of the stars, human beings are like this hypocritical!"

In Viola's eyes, the relationship between Chen Zikai and Chen Qiming was already a certainty, so they were her own family, so she said these things in front of Chen Zikai without any shyness.Her tone of voice was always sharp, but the passage just now was full of low and powerless.Watching her grab a book from the shelf, her pointed nails scratched across the cover, leaving a few deep marks on the hard cover, Chen Zikai suddenly didn't know what to say.

He hesitated for a long time before summoning up the courage to speak: "If given the chance, I will definitely change this situation."

Viola's eyes lit up in an instant, thinking that the other party had decided to shoulder the responsibilities brought by her blood and become the leader of the mutants who are now in a state of disunity. She was so moved that her voice choked up: "Mr. Chen! We are very grateful to the Chen family. Our kindness will never be forgotten!"

But what Chen Zikai thought in his heart was completely different from what Viola thought.No matter what angle you look at, he is a human being himself, and he must stand on the standpoint of a human being.Chen Zikai didn't read many books, and his education was not high, but he also felt that this was a very contradictory thing-in many cases, it was the mistakes made by the ruler at the time, but the successors and the people had to bear the burden sin.Between humans and mutants, it is impossible for one side to be wrong, just like there will be no resistance without oppression, and no counterattack without aggression, many things are mutual.

Chen Zikai's mind expanded rapidly outwards, but he was thinking of using non-war means to achieve his ideas - but after much deliberation, he couldn't think of any good way.He was just a chef, and he was a sensitive chef with the surname Chen who traveled from thousands of years ago.The human side can't speak, but the mutated people's status is noble, but if he suddenly stands up and says, 'Everyone stop fighting, we want peace! 'It is estimated that they will be killed by all kinds of lions and tigers...

With the sentence just now, he felt in his heart that he had not assumed the responsibility of the huge group of mutants. To put it more bluntly, he saw that Viola was about to lose control of her emotions, so he comforted her.But often the simpler the person thinks, the more complicated things will be afterwards. Chen Zikai obviously still doesn't understand this truth.
