At this time, the tablet beeps continuously reminded people that orders began to pour in. Coupled with Pochi's panicked cries, Chaoyang knew that if he didn't rescue her, the customers outside would have to be prepared to not have their meals within 30 minutes.
"I'm going to go teach Pochi how to cook, and I'll come back later to teach you the rest."
"Ah... um."
Yukinoshita seemed a little hesitant, but finally nodded, and then began to work according to Chaoyang's instructions.
"Some of these things are quite heavy, so take your time. If you can't handle them, just put them somewhere and I'll get to them later. I'll go help Pochi."
Chaoyang walked to the stove and gave Xueshita another instruction.
Then he came to Pochi, who was already sweating profusely.
"Where is Pochi Pickles?"
"Ah... pig, pork chop rice..."
"Katsudon, normally they go over there and fry the pork cutlet first, then make an oyako-nabe (hot pot) and put some onions on it."
As Chaoyang spoke, he had already placed a pork chop on the chopping board and quickly cut it into six equal pieces.
"...But everyone is too lazy to fry it in advance, so just cut the pork chop into six pieces and put it on. There's the sauce for the rice bowl over there, bring 80cc of it to a boil, beat an egg with chopsticks, then pour it over the boiling pork chop, take the rice bowl and fill it with rice... Just cover it like that! See, it's very simple, right? Normally, the meal can be prepared in three minutes. Next, let me see... The hamburger meat is OK, these are all pre-prepared dishes, cut the hamburger meat packaging, put it in an insulated box, and microwave it for 50 seconds. Take the iron plate and put the Neapolitan pasta on it..."
In this way, Chaoyang and Boqi were busy for about 20 minutes and the first wave of orders were quickly processed. Chaoyang saw that Boqi had probably memorized all the dishes, so he pointed to the back and spoke.
"Pochi-chan, I'm going to go teach Yukinoshita some more. I'll leave the cooking to you. If you come across something you don't know how to cook, just call me. I probably won't be too busy before 12 o'clock."
"Ah...Okay, leave it to me!"
Pochi patted his chest to encourage himself.
"Oh, then you do your best..."
Pochi was wearing the shop's shirt uniform, free from the constraints of tracksuits, and the outlines of the two large fruits on his chest were fully displayed. They swayed under her beating. Chaoyang suppressed the urge to reach out and touched them, and looked away awkwardly.
"Pochi-chan, stop patting your chest. It's easy to get angry."
"Ah... is there such a thing? Thank you Chaoyang!"
After hearing Chaoyang's reminder, Pochi's face showed a confused and grateful expression. She immediately stopped patting her chest. Although she didn't quite understand the concept of "easily getting angry" mentioned by Chaoyang, she still instinctively believed his words.
But Chaoyang actually meant that he would get angry. He was afraid that he would lose control and seek them out to relieve his anger at night!
Back at the back, Yukinoshita was squatting on the ground sorting out the ingredients.
"Yukinoshita, go cut the cabbage. I'll take care of these."
"it is good."
Chaoyang stared at the airport under the snow for a while, and suddenly felt his heart as calm as a mountain hiding jade.
"Thank you, Yukinoshita!"
Chaoyang's incoherent words made Yukinoshita Yukino look up at him with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Do I have anything for you to thank me for?"
"Your existence deserves my gratitude!"
Yukinoshita held a kitchen knife and stared at Chaoyang with cold eyes.
“…I hate people who are slick.”
"Don't hold the kitchen knife. If you look at me like that, I'll be scared."
Yukinoshita began to cut cabbage skillfully. Compared with physical work, this kind of work like cooking was more adept to her.
As the sound of "crunching" on the chopping board gradually increased, Yukinoshita and Chaoyang began their conversation.
"I noticed something was amiss with you when you called last week. What did you find?"
Chaoyang was stunned when he heard Yukinoshita suddenly talking about what happened last week.
He certainly remembered his thoughts and mental state from that time last week.
Aura's arrival was clearly an opportunity. Sandwich sauce was understandable, as Sandwich sauce itself was harmless. But Chaoyang could no longer trust those people, leaving Aura alone. A psychological crack had already appeared.
But Yukinoshita, why did you wait until now to ask?
"...Those people told you the same thing. You can't trust them too much. Since Aura arrived, they haven't even bothered to visit. They've ignored such a dangerous character. Either they didn't tell us about the situation, or they don't take human life seriously. Either way, it's enough to make us not trust them."
"Very good, let me also tell you about what I have discovered recently."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Chaoyang, who was working, couldn't help but turn around and look at Yukinoshita who was cutting vegetables when he heard her say that.
"The timing of the phone call that night was so unexpected that it made me suspicious. And unfortunately, I've had plenty of experience being followed, secretly photographed, and even secretly monitored by cameras. So, I've been checking my house for any similar devices these days."
"From the sound of your voice, I guess you haven't discovered anything."
"You're half right. We didn't find anything at home."
Chaoyang was stunned again when he heard this. He didn't find anything at home...
"There really is a bug!?"
Yukinoshita did not answer Chaoyang's question, but asked Chaoyang instead.
"Do you know what the standard weight of iPhone SE 2 is?"
"……what!"
Chaoyang finally remembered that the mobile phones he gave to the three of them were all free from Miss Kikuchihara.
"It's 148 grams... and my phone still weighs about 200 grams without the SIM card."
No wonder Yukinoshita said this at work; it's such a thoughtful thought. Cell phones aren't allowed in the kitchen here, so deliberately leaving your phone behind to talk might seem a bit awkward, though perhaps overly cautious. But considering this is truly a confrontation with a particular national government, it's certainly necessary.
Chaoyang felt a chill creep up his spine.
57. My name is XXXX and I am still learning Chinese. I want to come to A B to have a tea party!
After get off work, Chaoyang and Xueshita tacitly agreed not to talk about those things anymore, waiting for the opportunity to make the next plan. Before that, they would maintain their normal life and try not to reveal any flaws.
"Pochi has made great progress recently~~He has mastered everything."
As always, Chaoyang never missed any opportunity to praise Boqi. Boqi's performance was indeed good. Chaoyang had actually met many people who were much more clumsy than Boqi, so he could be said to think Boqi was good.
"Hey hey hey... I, I'm not that great anymore."
Pochi was shy, but her expression clearly told others that she was being praised more.
"Pochi, I got a lot of money this time. I've always had an idea, and now I can consider realizing it. You should quit this job~."
"Ah... yes... ahhh?! Did I do something wrong?"
After Pochi answered subconsciously, he realized what Chaoyang said and immediately screamed in fear.
Why did you suddenly ask me to give up my part-time job? Although I'm happy not to have to work, but... is there something wrong with my job that Chaoyang dislikes?
"No, your personality might be a little weird in real life... but if you were to return to a virtual environment, I think you'd really shine! Your voice is adorable, too!"
Chaoyang held Pochi's shoulders, his eyes shining as he spoke. He'd been ordering Aura to deliver food non-stop for 12 hours a day, saving over 10 yuan a week. With the remaining 30 yuan, Chaoyang had instantly thought of letting Pochi do it when he saw his international student friends watching virtual livestreams back in college. It would also help him improve his communication skills, and without the need for face-to-face interaction, there was no need to worry about Chaoyang. He'd contacted a well-known Japanese artist on Twitter and had a custom character design sent to live2d. Today was the delivery date, and Chaoyang had originally planned to pay with his own credit card, but now military funds were more than sufficient.
"We're going to Station B to get some popcorn!"
"Po…rice?"
Pochi tilted his head, not understanding what Chaoyang meant.
"I can't stand it. You really do whatever you want."
Yukinoshita, who was listening to Chaoyang's excited words, shook her head and sighed coldly.
But at the same time, she looked at Pochi tenderly, who still didn't understand what was going on.
"But for you, this might be an opportunity for a change for the better. After all, it doesn't look like you'll gain much from continuing this job."
After all, Pochi refused to speak to anyone, even hiding behind Chaoyang when greeting them. But at least he had gained some work experience, proving that even in the unlikely event of a disaster, Pochi wouldn't starve to death.
After all, it has been nearly two years since the Lonely Rock comics were released, and Pochi's social phobia has not improved much.
"Ah... yes!"
When Pochi saw Yukinoshita talking to her, she immediately straightened up.
The key points that Chaoyang had taught her when talking to Yukinoshita came to her mind.
[Don't be afraid of Ms. Yukinoshita... Follow what Chaoyang said, stay close to Ms. Yukinoshita and hug her arms!]
"I'll post it!"
"Wait, wait a minute, Goto-chan..."
"boom!"
Pochi rushed towards Yukinoshita with the ball, trying to get close to her and hug her arms. However, Pochi's movements were a bit clumsy, and she didn't control her strength well, and they both fell to the ground.
Pochi flipped over, causing Yukinoshita to lose her balance and fall to the ground. Yukinoshita's skirt flipped up accidentally due to the large range of motion. Lucky Chaoyang caught this unexpected view of the skirt. The black stockings tightly wrapped around Yukinoshita's slender legs, showing off her elegant curves.
[Thanks to Pomen! Good brother Pochi! ]
Chaoyang muttered to himself twice, then helped Xueshita up.
Fortunately, this is a small road with no passers-by, so only Chaoyang saw this benefit.
After getting up, Yukinoshita quickly tidied her clothes and gently brushed off the dust on her body.
He glared directly at Chaoyang.
"You must have taught Miss Goto strange things, otherwise she wouldn't have behaved so strangely."
"Ah, exposed?"
After Chaoyang helped Pochi up, he heard Yukinoshita's scolding and stuck out his tongue embarrassedly.
It’s just that it doesn’t look cute when a grown man does this.
"As far as being unpleasant is concerned, you are the most unrivaled person in the world."
Yukinoshita looked straight at Chaoyang with a decisive look, hesitating for a long time, "...Why does Ms. Goto listen to you so much..." Finally, she stopped.
Her eyes began to wander.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Miss Goto injured her forehead. When she fell, she landed on her face. Wait... you hold her like this for now."
He quickly took out a handkerchief from his bag and carefully wiped Pochi's wound.
"I'm sorry... I... I just wanted to..."
Pochi's voice was choked with sobs, and he was obviously very sad.
[Woo woo woo, screwed up again.]
"It's okay, Ms. Goto. I've been prepared for your unexpectedness. I'm just more surprised that some stupid man would ask you to do something by rote."
"It has nothing to do with Chaoyang..."
"Ah, so Miss Goto also thinks Su-kun is a stupid man? That's great, I think it's just my illusion from now on. Okay, let's go."
As he spoke, he walked ahead. Chaoyang looked at the figure in front of him and her pace seemed a little different from what he remembered.
After seeing Yukinoshita stagger slightly, he was stunned for a moment. Without any warning, Chaoyang walked in front of Yukinoshita and suddenly squatted down.
"? If you want to imitate the stones on the roadside, I suggest you do it in a place where there are no people. It will be very... You! What are you doing?"
Chaoyang suddenly stretched out his hands and grabbed Yukinoshita's black silk ankles. This sudden movement caught Yukinoshita off guard and made her lose her balance.
Without any warning, Chaoyang walked in front of Yukinoshita and suddenly squatted down. He accurately grasped Yukinoshita's ankles, and this sudden movement caught Yukinoshita completely off guard and lost her balance.
Chaoyang put his arms around Yukinoshita's thighs and stood up. Yukinoshita subconsciously hugged Chaoyang's neck, but suddenly realized something was wrong and let go.
"!? What are you doing?"
"You sprained your ankle, didn't you? Since you say it's my fault, let me carry you home... Whether it's this home or your home in another world, I will send you back safely. So just stay still now. We're not far away. What if your ankle gets worse because of your stubbornness? Don't forget, we still have a lot of work to do."
After listening to this in silence, Yukinoshita looked at the back of Chaoyang's neck with a dazed look on her face.
"I can not understand."
"What's so incomprehensible?"
"If you do what you say, ... you won't gain anything."
