Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

Xiaolu immediately calculated that there were millions of devices in the first batch, but less than ten million.

This means that there are probably tens of thousands of active players in every main city and every island.

Because of the sleep mode, the stickiness of this game is probably surprisingly great.

She also understood that owning shops and land in the main city meant absolute wealth.

"Okay, okay, I like this kind of game. People are my gaming experience." Xiaolu acted like a game boss.

"Not really. The shops in the main city will be frantically undercutting each other on price to attract customers. Once you start level 6, the cost and difficulty of upgrading your shop will skyrocket. Even making a loss is normal."

Therefore, it will take a long time to earn back the upgrade costs in the later stages.

The internal competition among stores of the same type often results in a life-and-death struggle for both parties, and they sign an agreement to maintain a fixed price.

In other words, it is a fight between father and son in an illegal area, and whoever loses will be eliminated.

Speaking of this, Yu Man concluded:

"Generally speaking, in the eyes of most players, they can earn transaction fees by killing a few monsters, so they don't feel like they are the boss of the game."

"Oh, what a rubbish game. You can't be a big shot just because you spend money." The deer kept muttering.

Senior Cat felt very uncomfortable listening to this because he couldn't play.

Yu Man corrected him, "That's not the case. Aren't you giving me food? I definitely respect you as my master. I am your gaming experience."

After hearing Yu Man's casual witticism, Xiaolu blushed again for some reason.

She didn't know how to respond, or even if this was a dream or reality.

Because, a girl who had never been heard of and could not be created by the most ardent imagination was accompanying her in this home that should have been cold, spreading smiles that had never been seen before along the way as the years passed.

"……eel."

"Ok?"

"……fine."

"Brother, I know what you mean. You're just calling me for fun."

The deer's face was dull because his heart was too shaken.

It turns out that some human functions will not disappear due to disuse.

It turns out that I still retain the ability to call other people's names and get a response.

……

Yu Man was starving, but his body was already familiar with this feeling.

So when I smelled the fragrance, I didn't react immediately.

They sat in the restaurant, a few steps away from the open western kitchen, and further inside was the closed Chinese kitchen.

I don’t know what kind of soup the housekeeping robot is making, but the rich aroma is faint and lingers in the air.

For Man, it is a strong poison. When the body realizes that it is delicious and represents food, the dormant hunger in the body is immediately awakened.

The feeling of hunger seemed to be eating up the body, spreading from the stomach to every corner of the body.

Like a call for a strike, hunger dominates all the cells in the body, and they desperately send instructions to the brain, lips and tongue, hoping that they will plunder this delicacy.

The reason why Yu Man could still sit still was not because of his remaining rationality.

——It’s just because I’m too hungry to have any strength.

"Well, it's powder made from dried giant salamander. It will be very fragrant when cooked into soup." The little deer seemed very familiar with it.

"Fish...ah."

"Why is there a dried eel?" In Xiaolu's eyes, Yu Man seemed to be like this.

Senior Cat lay on the ground obediently, feeling a thousand emotions in his heart.

No matter how miserable the days are, there will always be a New Year.

Soon, the housekeeping robot that had been prepared in advance finally started serving the food.

First there were two empty bone china bowls, green bamboo chopsticks and a spoon.

But the little deer suggested: "It's a nice day today, let's go out for a meal." Without waiting for a response, she happily moved the dried eels, cat, and tableware to the terrace next to her.

In the past, she didn't want anyone to sit at the same table with her.

Therefore, the household robot always brings the food to the computer desk, and only through the screen can it get a hint of human touch.

But today is different. In addition to the man and cat who came as guests, she can also invite the sun and the cold wind.

Or maybe, just to show off Yu Man's arrival to the world outside the window?

"Serve it quickly, I'm hungry too." The deer shouted and ordered.

"...Aren't you the one who has been obstructing me?" The housekeeping robot looked helpless.

"That's right, otherwise I would have eaten it a long time ago." Yu Man also agreed desperately.

"Humph."

Although it was a little late, there was finally something in the empty bowl.

The housekeeping robot puts a touch of white lard into the empty bowls of the guests and hosts in order.

Next comes the bamboo noodles that have been drained of moisture and cooked, which are dry and chewy.

Then, surrounding the noodles, delicately pinched cooked wontons were placed on the edge of the bowl one by one.

A little shrimp powder, two choy sum, leeks, fried onions, and a light heat.

This is followed by the boiling hot and rich broth - pouring over everything in the bowl from top to bottom, from the round to the inside.

It was like a volcano erupting, or like someone ascending to heaven.

Their natural fragrance rises to Yu Man's nostrils.

"——Please." The housekeeping robot was very confident and did not introduce itself further.

Yu Man reached out and grabbed the chopsticks, her hands trembling slightly from hunger.

Perhaps it was because of hunger, she felt that the wonton noodles in front of her were not food, but the whole world.

Fortunately, she still managed to find the strength to pick up the wonton, put it in her mouth and bite it.

In winter, its temperature is just right, slightly hot, but just right.

After the temperature, the tongue feels the strong, rich and fresh taste, which is the taste of the soup.

Next, there’s the refreshing taste of biting into the wonton skin and the strong aroma of animal fat that oozes out from it.

Meat, meat, meat!

The lean meat particles are coated with fat and fried between your lips and teeth.

But what followed was a refreshing sweetness.

It fits perfectly with the meat filling and dances alone in it.

Ah...it's the sweetness of shrimp.

Yu Man scooped a spoonful of the soup, and the complex and rich flavor immediately lingered in it, making it extremely three-dimensional.

Chew thoroughly and swallow slowly.

When the taste left his mouth and fell into his stomach, Yu Man discovered that there was still a trace of aftertaste left.

It was the unnoticeable scent of the green leaves of the Chinese cabbage, extremely faint.

Yu Man took another bite of noodles, which was different from the extremely rich wontons.

The noodles are simply smooth and chewy—but what more could they possibly need? The clash between them and the teeth always creates a supreme harmony with the broth. And then, like a well-fought battle, they depart contentedly, bidding farewell to their lips, teeth, and tongue, before entering the stomach.

After eating these two bites, Yu Man couldn't continue for a long time.

I was just immersed in unprecedented joy, my soul was shocked.

She looked at the housekeeping robot, and the housekeeping robot looked at her.

Yu Man slowly raised his thumbs, but his words were much paler than what he said.

The domestic robot saluted, confident, modest, and proud.

As for the little deer beside her, she didn't notice the storm that Yu Man had just experienced, because she discovered something else strange.

Why is the white cat staring at Yu Man pitifully, wanting to meow but hesitating?

……

036 New Year Project

Fortunately, the household robot has prepared a portion for Senior Cat.

Cooked shrimp and minced meat are mixed with yogurt, pumpkin and chopped vegetables.

Although it is simply cooked with leftover ingredients and not seasoned with salt or sugar, the ingredients themselves are of high quality and it makes a small bowl of fresh and sweet cat food.

Senior Cat was a little cautious at first, but he was hungry, so after taking a small lick, he became addicted to it.

Yu Man was a little worried at first that Senior Cat, who wasn't treated like a human, would get angry... But obviously, after three years of wandering around in the world, his humanity had long been worn away.

"You're not picky about food? Even vegetables..."

The housekeeping robot was quite surprised by this, and the indicator light on its temple kept lighting up out of surprise.

"Being able to process scraps so efficiently... is great! I also want to have a small animal that is not picky about food. It is much easier to raise than a bird with a difficult stomach."

"cough……"

The attacked owner looked embarrassed, but the housekeeping robot was telling the truth and she couldn't refute it.

The deer immediately changed the subject: "Eel, what's your cat's name?"

“…Uh.” That’s a complicated question.

Yu Man's mind was forced to be distracted from the deliciousness of the food.

By the way, what is Senior Cat’s name?

From the beginning of the second round of reset, the two of them met and got to know each other, and until now, Yu Man has been calling it "Cat Senior".

Yu Man was not sure whether it was his real name or the game ID, after all, the game was different.

In Yu Manwan's playthrough, Senior Cat is pretending to be a cat, bumping into little girls in the real world and asking for sausages.

If I don’t come up with a name now, the relationship between this pet and its owner... will probably be suspected?

Well, I need to come up with a catchy name.

"It's called - Triple Crown." Yu Man thought.

"...Triple Crown Champion, so domineering?"

"of course."

Senior Cat, who was eating voraciously, choked when he heard the name. He looked up and glared at Yu Man with a resentful look.

"Wow, the cat is so smart that it recognizes its own name." The deer understood this scene.

“…Meow↓.” After letting out his anger, the Triple Crown Cat Senior went back to eating.

"What championships has Cat won?" Xiaolu was very curious and asked Yu Man again.

Yu Man shook his head and sighed.

"Alas, it's just the glory of the past. Don't talk about the past."
