The waiter had obviously been asked similar questions more than once, and he answered them with ease and familiarity.

Li Mo thought for a moment and decided to order one to try.

After placing his order, he emphasized, "I'm not interested in maid service, I'm just interested in the magic of being delicious!"

"Then I'll have the other maid services canceled and only carry out the last step."

The waiter looked a little surprised, but quickly nodded.

"Well, actually, that's not necessary. After all, since we're here, it might be a good idea to experience something unknown..."

Li Mo stammered a little embarrassedly, his eyes a little dazed.

The waiter smiled knowingly, bowed slightly, and then left leisurely.

Li Mo drank lemonade and looked around the store.

Probably because we had made reservations in advance, there were obviously several tables merged together near the corner of the cafe, forming the kind of long tables that are more common in cafeterias.

Some people had already arrived there, but Gokou Ruri, who was the most eye-catching because of her dress, just sat there. She neither participated in other people's discussions nor did anyone talk to her. The girl herself did not intend to say anything. At first glance, she seemed to be isolated.

This made Li Mo a little anxious.

After a while, a tall girl appeared. Li Mo even felt that she was not shorter than himself. You know, he was only sixteen years old but he was already 1.78 meters tall. It would be a natural thing for him to break 1.8 meters in two years.

The other person was dressed in a rustic manner, wearing not only a plaid shirt and thick beer-bottle glasses, but also a headband on his head and a roll of posters on his back. He seemed to be the epitome of the Heisei era's stereotype of the word "otaku".

However, the other person seemed to have a good personality and took the initiative to talk to the neglected Gokou Ruri.

No one knew what the two of them said, but Gokou Ruri made a loud noise for the first time since attending the offline meeting: "What? You are Saori?!"

Although the girl did not look that surprised on the surface, Li Mo could see that the corners of her eyes were twitching constantly. She was obviously shocked and even forgot to be surprised for a moment.

"Yes, I am Saori Bajina! You must be Kuroneko-sama! I never thought that Kuroneko-sama, who speaks so forcefully in the community, would be so petty. It's surprising~"

The oversized otaku girl said happily, without any surprise in her tone.

"You're clearly an otaku, so why do you have to act like a young lady in the community?"

Gokou Ruri looked at the big girl who called herself Saori Bajina with a look of disillusionment on her face.

It seems that the other person should be one of the few people in the community who has a good relationship with her, but the difference between his offline appearance and the feeling he gives online is too great, which makes Gokuru Ruri's defense subtly broken.

"That's the way the internet works. You never know what kind of person they are until you meet them. That's part of their mysterious charm."

Saori didn't seem to mind Gokou Ruri's reaction. She looked to the other side and said, "The other one should be Kokirigiri-sensei. She's just like I remembered her. She's a beautiful girl."

The person she pointed out was an offline member who, like Gokou Ruri, had not been able to integrate with the others since the beginning.

It's just that Gokou Ruri looks unapproachable because of her weird and eye-catching clothes and cold expression. The latter looks like a very fashionable girl, and is obviously not in the same circle as those otaku girls in the community who dress more rustically, so she is also isolated.

The other party was probably very angry about the isolation just now, and said some unpleasant words when he was called out, but Saori didn't take it to heart.

She seemed to be the administrator of the community. While counting the number of people, she said happily: "This means there are only two people left... Let's eat and drink first. As for money, we still have some funds raised by the community~"

Chapter 159 Maid Service.

"Is there anyone else who hasn't come? I don't think they will come."

The fashionable girl with long, dyed brown hair, known as Xiao Tong Tong, seemed to have calmed down a bit, but her words were still a little aggressive: "Maybe they are perverts lurking in the community disguised as women."

It is worth mentioning that, unlike Li Mo who only observed with his peripheral vision, he easily discovered a boy who was paying attention to the offline meeting during the observation process.

Unlike those who just took a few glances out of curiosity, the other party obviously cared a lot about what was happening offline.

To be precise, he should be very concerned about the girl named Xiao Tongtong.

Are they siblings? Or maybe a couple? After all, as siblings, they don't look too similar...

"That won't happen,"

Saori smiled brightly and said, "Everyone in the community has been personally verified by me through video. They are definitely real girls, there is no mistake! Even if you don't believe in my ability, you must believe in my pursuit of beautiful girls!"

"This is so disgusting. Is this your personality in real life?"

Xiao Tongtong looked at Saori with disdain as she was trying hard to liven up the atmosphere.

"She clearly acts like a real lady online, but now she's such a homebody. She's already a fraud."

Gokou Ruri rarely expressed her agreement.

"Ahaha, I just think that speaking this way will make it easier to get along with everyone!"

Saori has a very good temper. Even after being told that, she didn't seem angry at all. Instead, she continued to chat with the two people who were not accepted by other circles. It was obvious that she didn't want Xiaotongtong and Gokou Ruri to feel isolated.

Li Mo originally wanted to continue observing for a while, but at this time the food he ordered came up.

Judging from the appearance, the plate of omurice was undoubtedly a super cheap frozen food from the supermarket that would not exceed 250 yen. Even after heating it, it was dry and tasteless. By the way, a portion of 'Nika Fruit' grade omurice costs 3000 yen.

"What would you like to write, Master?"

The maid who was in charge of adding ketchup to the omelet rice asked Li Mo with a smile.

"Diamond Sutra."

Li Mo answered calmly.

"Eh?"

The maid was stunned.

"'Thus have I heard: At one time the Buddha was in the Jetavana Grove in the country of Sravasti, with an assembly of 1,250 great bhikkhus.'

that."

"It's too long! Not to mention the original text, I can't even write down what you just said, guest. Absolutely not!"

The maid said with a helpless smile.

"it's a pity."

Li Mo sighed, "Then 'Idiot! Crybaby! Scum!' Okay."

"what?"

The maid asked incomprehensibly.

"These are wise words from a very wise old man."

Li Mo said seriously.

"Um, can I ask what it means?"

"No."

Li Mo decisively refused: "Because I don't know either."

"Guest, you are kidding, right?"

The maid couldn't help but feel tired: "I'm afraid of you. Originally, we would refuse to write anything embarrassing, but if the customer wants to write something, then a little embarrassing is not impossible..."

"Then write down the date you last wet the bed."

"Although it's indeed something embarrassing, it's completely different from what I expected?!"

"Just kidding."

Li Mo, with a stern face, smiled brightly: "Just write about world peace."

The maid was stunned for a moment: "Um, is it really just about world peace?"

"I don't mind if you want to write about your love history,"

Li Mo said: "Although I can't read it."

"I've finished writing..."

The maid carefully wrote "World Peace" on the omelet rice with ketchup, and then wanted to leave as if she had been pardoned, but was stopped by Li Mo.

"Wait, what about the magic that makes food delicious?"

He has not forgotten his original intention of ordering this thing.

"Ah, sorry..."

The maid then remembered this and made a heart shape towards the omelet rice, saying in a cute voice: "Moe~Moe~Jiu, let's make this omelet rice delicious~"

Li Mo watched the whole process expressionlessly. The maid girl, who had just finished a set and even struck a pose, immediately said to him, "That's it? Are you serious?" There was an indescribable embarrassment in her eyes.

"Excuse me..."

She covered her face and left.

While hoping that his indifference did not leave any psychological trauma on the other party, Li Mo scooped another spoonful of omelet rice and tasted it.

That’s right, it’s the smell of frozen food. When I had very little money, I would run to the supermarket to buy this kind of frozen food that was about to expire. I could just heat it up a little and it would be enough for a meal. But after eating it a few times, I got sick of it. Later, I would subconsciously feel nauseous whenever I smelled this smell.

In other words, now that I have money and have lived a good life, my appetite has improved, otherwise I would have vomited out that bite just now.

I'm such an idiot for spending 3000 yen on something like this.

While Li Mo was reflecting on the fact that he seemed to be spending money lavishly recently, he turned his attention back to the offline meeting.

But before I could watch for a few seconds, someone else came into the cafe and quickly ran to the table where the offline meeting was held.

"Sorry, I'm late~"

If Xiao Tongtong is a fashion expert, then the girl who appears now is a pure blonde hottie.

After all, although Xiao Tongtong was dressed elegantly and had obvious traces of makeup on her face, she was only about the same age as Gokou Ruri, or at least a junior high school student. No matter how fashionable she was, there were always limits, and she still looked a bit immature.

The blonde hottie who appeared at this moment could be said to be her complete superior. Not only was her figure much more graceful than the other one, her expression also looked more sunny, cheerful and generous, and she always had a smile on her face.

"I'm Mengmeng in the community. My real name is Kitagawa Umi. You can just call me Umi!"

She said happily, and when she saw Gokou Ruri sitting in the corner, her eyes lit up: "Could this be the Fallen Saint Black Cat? This dress is for the popular character 'Night Demon Queen' in 'Maschera: The Wail of the Demonic Beast Fallen to the Mortal World', right?"

"I can tell?"

Seeing that someone finally recognized her cosplay, Gokou Ruri seemed to be in a good mood.

If she had a cat's tail, it would definitely be standing up high now.

"Hey, isn't that the lamp that this evil-eyed electric-wave chef cosplays as?"

Xiao Tongtong said curiously.

"No way!" Gokou Ruri and Kitagawa Umi retorted loudly at the same time, scaring the other party.

"Sit still and be nice. I'm going to correct your disrespectful thoughts now."

Gokou Ruri said seriously.

Xiao Tongtong was like a Shiba Inu being pulled by a leash, with a look of reluctance on his face.

Chapter 160: Debate.

"After all, that M... isn't 'Maschera' just a fancy, delusional, chuunibyou anime that aired in the same time slot as Meruru?"

After being nagging by Gogen Ruri for a long time, Xiao Tongtong suddenly spoke as if she realized something.

"Delusion, paranoia..."

Gokou Ruri gave her an expression that said, "I can't pretend I didn't hear that," and her eyes, adorned with burgundy contact lenses, suddenly sharpened. "You've probably never even seen it, yet you're making such a foolish statement! 'Maschera' is the biggest anime production in recent years. Both the animation and the directing are by some of the most renowned artists in the industry. The credits at the end are truly national-level! Not to mention the incredibly profound themes and connotations lurking beneath the surface, touching on supernatural battles, religion, life, and the humanities of contemporary society!"

"Yes, yes!"

Kitagawa Umi nodded in agreement.

Gokou Ruri, as if still unsatisfied, continued, "Also, the Meruru you mentioned, isn't it 'Meruru from Tenchu ​​Shoujo'?' Those fighting-themed magical girls have long been out of fashion. Even the latest installment of 'Hikari Pretty Cure' has significantly cut down on the battle scenes... It's more like only preschoolers and moe-loving adults would watch those boring, child-oriented magical girls!"

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about! Meruru is a superb piece of work that deeply depicts friendship, hard work, and bonds! Anyone who doesn't fully understand the bond between Meruru and her friends, which is deeper than the Malaysian Trench, is unqualified to comment on Meruru!"

Xiao Tongtong was also angry.

Li Mo heard someone at another table quietly asking, "Are there trenches in Malaysia?"

He thought the other party probably meant to mention the Mariana Trench but got it wrong...

"Yes, Merulu is pretty too."

Kitagawa Umi also nodded repeatedly.

“Which side are you on?”
