Jinx pulled out a fruit-sized object from behind her and tossed it over, then laughed and said, "See you in a while, Bai Yu!"
After saying that, Jinx ran straight into the light. When Bai Yu saw what was flying towards him, his lips twitched, because it was a grenade with a head that looked like a shark... and that head could even open and close as if it were alive.
Cerberus didn't know what this was, and just assumed it was payment for the meal that Jinx had sent. He reached out to take it, and before Bai Yu could even speak, he saw Cerberus catch it steadily.
Cerberus, holding the grenade that still looked like it was biting something in its hands, asked in confusion, "Master, master, master! What is this thing called Jinx's meal fee? It's even moving!"
Bai Yu's lips twitched, and just as he was about to grab the grenade and throw it, the mouth on the grenade suddenly stopped moving. The next moment, the Fire Chewer grenade exploded...
However, the grenade caused no damage after it exploded. Instead, it released a lot of paint over a small but significant area, which just covered Cerberus and Bai Yu's faces and bodies with various colors of paint.
Cerberus blinked, wiped his face, turned to look at Bai Yu, and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Bai Yu pinched Cerberus's cheek in annoyance and said, "Don't laugh yet, you're the same."
Cerberus's ears twitched, then he chuckled and said, "But... Master! This is so much fun! It's so interesting! Next time I see Jinx, I should ask her to give me two!"
Bai Yu looked at Cerberus and said with a smile, "Hmm, it's quite fun. Now it looks like I need to go upstairs and take a shower. Breakfast might have to wait a bit, is that alright?"
"Mmmmmmm!"
"What are you two doing?"
Just as the two were deciding to go back to their room to wash off the paint, they saw Lucifer, dressed neatly, yawning as he came downstairs. Lucifer was stunned when she saw the two of them like this. She had only gotten up a little late, so why did she feel like she had missed a world?
Meanwhile, on the other side, in a very old but very clean room, Jinx lay on her bed, covering her mouth and sobbing. Finally, she couldn't help but burst out laughing and rolled around on the bed laughing.
However, she didn't stay laughing at her prank indefinitely. She quickly stopped laughing, wiped away her tears of laughter, stretched, and said, "Where should I fry next...? The cook's place is definitely more comfortable..."
"But... Piltover cops! The all-new Jinx is back! Hahahaha!"
P.S.: I'm about to start.

Chapter 82 The Chestnut-Haired Girl (Please Subscribe~)
Unlike Cerberus and Shiraha, who ran back to take a bath after being pranked by Jinx, things were much calmer at Totsuki...
It's probably much calmer...
At this moment, in a clean and tidy room with little decoration, Erina stood in front of the large bed with her arms crossed, while Hisako behind her looked helpless.
That's right. I thought Alice would wake up on the way, but I didn't expect that Alice was sleeping very soundly, perhaps because Bai Yu was holding her so steadily, and there was no sign of her waking up at all.
Last night, Erina and Hisako carried her back to Erina's dormitory, but now it's fully light and Alice still hasn't woken up.
"Ms. Erina, perhaps we should ask Ms. Alice for leave..."
Erina shook her head and said, "No! Alice has an assessment today, we can't let her continue sleeping. Hisako! Wake her up!"
"But Miss, I called you before but you didn't wake up..."
"Then let's use physical methods!"
"Eh?!"
Two minutes later, Alice rubbed her face and cried out, "You idiot Erina! Why did you pinch me! It hurts! My face is all red!"
Erina said irritably, "How dare you say that? Don't you know you have an assessment today? If you keep sleeping, you'll be late! Honestly, how can you drink alcohol like it's a beverage?!"
Alice scratched her head and thought for a while before remembering what happened last night. She whispered, "I didn't expect that cocktail to be so delicious, and so many of the flavors tasted like fruit juice!"
Erina rolled her eyes and said irritably, "It was only because it was with Manager Shiraha, and Grandpa and Rindou-nee were there too, that who knows what would have happened!"
Alice whispered, "I only ordered the drinks because I knew it was Manager Shiraha's shop... But thank you for bringing me back yesterday anyway..."
Hisako said softly, "No, we just took you back to your dorm, Miss Alice. It was Manager Shiraha who took you out of the restaurant..."
"Eh?"
Erina nodded and said, "Hisako is right. Yesterday, Manager Shiraha wanted to let you stay in the hotel's guest room to rest, but he didn't know if you had taken the test, so he didn't let you stay. Manager Shiraha carried you to the car. I didn't expect you to be sleeping so soundly, without any signs of waking up."
Alice blushed, then said somewhat awkwardly, "I don't know... Last night I just suddenly felt dizzy, and then I felt like I was lying on a soft, big bed, and then I knew nothing more..."
"That's right. Shopkeeper Baiyu was worried that Longdan and the others would make you throw up if they carried you there because it was too bumpy, so she carried you very carefully. The big bed you mentioned should be the one when Shopkeeper Baiyu was carrying you. You made quite a fool of yourself last night."
Alice was taken aback and said nervously, "What did I say last night?"
"You didn't say anything~ But your drool in your sleep soaked Baiyu's clothes, and it seems like you were rubbing your head against Baiyu like a pillow."
Alice's fair face instantly turned crimson, and she hugged her pillow, saying, "Besides this, have I done anything else shameful?"
"That's all. Don't you think you've embarrassed yourself enough? If you have time these next few days, remember to thank Manager Bai Yu. Otherwise, you'll be very impolite. Now hurry up and wash up. You have an assessment later."
"Oh... but don't you need to take an exam?"
Do you think I need to be assessed?
"Tch...privilege..."
Erina said irritably, "If you were also one of the Elite Ten, you wouldn't need to take the daily assessments. Don't waste your time. Breakfast is on the table. Hisako and I are going to catch up on the tasting we missed yesterday."
Watching Erina and Hisako leave, Alice buried her face in a pillow, sighed, and slowly got off the bed, heading towards the bathroom.
Bai Yu and Cerberus also finished their baths and came out. It was unclear whether Bai Yu had taken too long or Cerberus had taken too long, but when Bai Yu came out, he saw Cerberus sitting obediently next to Lucifer, already dressed in new clothes.
"Cerberus, are you showering so fast? Aren't girls supposed to take their time showering?"
Cerberus paused, then asked in confusion, "Will it take a long time?"
"Yeah, but it'll be fine once it's clean~ Lucifer, what are you doing?"
After Bai Yu finished speaking, he saw Lucifer resting his forehead on his hand, looking at his phone with a helpless expression and sighing. Lucifer casually said, "Do you remember what day it is today?"
"Eh?"
"Today is the day Kira is coming... She's asked me to remind you many times in the group chat..."
Shiraha sighed. To be honest, he would welcome Kirari Momobami if she came here to eat or relax, but if she wanted his help, Kirari's thoughts were even harder to understand than Jinx's.
Bai Yu didn't dwell on the matter too much. He quickly came to his senses and asked Lucifer and Cerberus, "What would you like to eat for breakfast?"
"Huh? Aren't you going to close the door yet?"
"No need. If we eat early, we can go out and relax today. I had a lot of things to do yesterday, so I wanted to relax today."
Cerberus perked up immediately at the mention of going out to play, leaning on the table with shining eyes as he exclaimed, "Master, master, master! Where are we going to play?"
"I haven't thought about that yet... Hmm? Wait... I got a phone call..."
"Hey? Fuji, what's up?"
"Why should I, a restaurant owner, care about what day of the week it is? By the way, is today a day off?"
"An open-air tennis court? That's fine~ See you later then." (Would I play tennis with someone like in the original story? Impossible~)
After hanging up the phone, Bai Yu said with a smile, "It seems the morning's itinerary is set. I'm going to the outdoor tennis court with Fuji later. Do you guys want to come?"
Cerberus naturally wouldn't refuse, and Lucifer nodded after thinking for a while. After learning how to make chocolate cookies, she wasn't very interested in cooking anymore. She'd rather go out and play than stay in the shop playing on her phone.
Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Since we're playing tennis, let's prepare some things so we can have a picnic at noon!"
"A picnic?" x2
"Well, it's a way to enjoy life. I don't know how many people will participate, but let's do a little more. Lucifer, Cerberus, is ramen for breakfast okay?"
"can!"
"Hand-Pulled Noodle?!"
Cerberus clearly still longed for the bowl of ramen that Yukihira Joichiro had made; after all, eating ramen was a dish that looked as delicious as eating meat.
Just as Bai Yu was about to enter the kitchen, a girl with chestnut hair walked in and asked, "Excuse me, is this a restaurant?"
P.S.: She is Honda.....

Bai Yu looked at the girl and nodded, saying, "Yes, would you like something to eat?"
The girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank goodness... Are you the manager? What kind of food do you have here?"
"If we have the ingredients, we can make anything. What would you like to eat?"
The girl thought for a moment and said, "Give me a serving of dumplings, with vegetarian filling, and orange juice, that's all."
Bai Yu nodded and walked into the kitchen. The girl looked at Lucifer and Cerberus sitting there and felt as if she were seeing someone of high status.
Cerberus, slumped over the table, said, "Lucifer... I'm hungry..."
"There are some leftover chocolate cookies~"
Upon hearing this, Cerberus sat up straight and shook his head frantically, saying, "No chocolate! No chocolate! Master... White Feather White Feather White Feather! Is there anything else to eat besides chocolate!"
"Wait a minute, don't worry~ I won't give you any chocolate~"
Cerberus sighed and sat up straight again. He snorted at Lucifer, who was playing on his phone, then turned his head away and went back to lying down. Lucifer glanced at Cerberus, smiled, and then continued chatting with Kirari.
"Huh? Bai Yu... that name sounds familiar..."
The girl found the name very familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before, but after thinking for a while and confirming that she did not know anyone named Bai Yu, she simply stopped thinking about it.
While the girl was waiting, she heard a series of crisp sounds. Just as she was wondering what was going on, she smelled the fresh aroma of vegetables. The girl was stunned. Could they be making fillings? But with such a fragrant smell, putting aside the quality of the vegetables, just how fresh were they?
Lucifer and Cerberus were both slightly taken aback by the smell. Bai Yu hadn't smelled or heard this before when he made pan-fried dumplings. Was there some difference between dumplings and pan-fried dumplings? (To be honest, dumplings are better.)
The essence of dumplings lies in the thickness of the dough and the fineness of the filling. If the filling is too finely chopped, it will taste like eating mud. If the filling is too large, it may not cook through and the flavor will not be evenly distributed.
If you need a quick meal and want to eat a main dish at the same time, stuffed dishes are the best choice. Each filling is actually a dish in itself, which is convenient and fast.
As a wisp of steam wafted out from the edge of the kitchen, the girl, Cerberus, and Lucifer all paused for a moment. It smelled wonderful, but it wasn't the kind of aroma that could be described. If you had to describe it, it would probably be the unique aroma of dumplings when they come out of the pot.
This almost made Cerberus, who was already very hungry, drool, but he managed to hold back. When Bai Yu came out with a plate of dumplings, he saw Cerberus's eyes light up and said with a smile, "Go get some yourself from the kitchen table~"
"yeah!"
Cerberus cheered and ran towards the kitchen. It was her first time in a kitchen, and everything was clean and tidy. If it weren't for the faint fragrance, she would have thought it was a new kitchen.
The girl paused for a moment when she saw the dumplings and said, "Huh? These dumplings are a little different from what I usually eat..."
Bai Yu said gently, "These are Chinese dumplings, and they are definitely very different from what you usually eat. As for the dipping sauce, you can use soy sauce, vinegar, chili, or minced garlic. Of course, if you like strong flavors, chili sauce is also fine."
The girl nodded, seemingly very interested in these Chinese dumplings. She was used to pan-frying dumplings, and this was the first time she had ever seen dumplings that were boiled and then dipped in sauce.
"White feathers, white feathers, white feathers! What is this? It tastes so good!"
"Oh, this is just beef jerky~ But don't eat too much, I need to start cooking."
"Mmm! Lucifer! Bai Yu got some delicious food!"
Lucifer sighed as he watched Cerberus run out carrying beef jerky and said, "There are still guests here. Don't run around like that; it will disturb others."
"Oh... I'm sorry!"
The girl waved her hand and smiled as Cerberus turned to apologize to her, saying, "It's alright, and this lady seems quite happy."
Cerberus chuckled and scratched his head, then saw Lucifer chewing on a piece of beef jerky while playing on his phone, so he quickly sat down and started eating.
Looking at the adorable Cerberus, the girl's mood improved considerably. While she was slightly lost in thought, staring at the steaming dumplings in front of her, she received a message. After glancing at it, she quickly picked up her chopsticks and began to eat.
She chose a simple dipping sauce: soy sauce and vinegar. After hesitating for a moment, she decided not to add minced garlic. She dipped the dumpling in the sauce, and a few drops of the mixed vinegar and soy sauce slid down the dumpling, leaving a slight dark stain on the spot.
"These dumplings... smell so good... what is this...?"
The girl took a bite, and the soft yet elastic dumpling skin finally revealed the filling under external force. The filling was very pretty, and the first taste was the refreshing taste of vegetables. There wasn't too much oil, but it still couldn't hide its own aroma.
The vegetable fillings huddled together, as if huddling for warmth. The girl only recognized mushrooms, carrots, and cabbage, but none of them brought her any particular sense of novelty.
What truly surprised her was that crisp, crunchy thing; she could feel that it cleverly connected everything together.
The girl originally wanted to study this thing carefully to find out what it was, but time didn't allow it for her right now.
All she could do was eat and think. Dumplings are probably the first thing that comes to mind when everyone is homesick. A plate of steaming dumplings can calm a person down.
As each dumpling enters the mouth, nothing is more convenient and satisfying than this dish. This is exactly how the girl felt at that moment. Every bite of dumpling brought her a sense of satisfaction. The refreshing taste of the vegetables and the soft, chewy dumpling skin, along with a little seasoning, made it so easy to feel content.
When Bai Yu finished making the ramen, he saw the girl had unknowingly eaten an entire plate of dumplings. Bai Yu looked at her and smiled, saying, "This looks like it suits your taste~"
The girl nodded and said, "Mmm! It's delicious, but manager, what are the fillings inside? I tasted something crunchy, but I don't know what it is."
"Oh, it's bamboo shoots!"
"Oh! Yes! It really is bamboo shoots! No wonder it has such a unique, fragrant aroma, it's so delicious!"
