People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Chapter 506 Nami's Thoughts, Nami's Reasons (Please Subscribe~)

Nojiko and Nami chatted casually, but Nami was very happy. Nojiko looked at Nami, whose smile never faded, and said gently, "You keep smiling like this, aren't you tired?"

Nami shook her head and said, "No way, I'm just so happy today! Nojiko, I have a feeling right now, a feeling of looking forward to the future."

"Alright, I know you're happy, but be careful your face gets stiff from smiling and then you won't be able to smile anymore."

"Huh? Really? It really does transform?"

"I don't know, but it's not impossible if you want to prove it."

Nami thought for a moment and said, "Let's not go then. It's getting dark, Nojiko. We should get ready to leave."

"Alright, but it would be better to go home in that case. After all, if two people suddenly disappear and someone sees them, it will be troublesome."

Nami nodded and said, "Okay! By the way, Nojiko, you only need to know how to get here by yourself. You don't need to tell anyone. As long as it's nighttime, you can come over through the door anytime."

"Okay, I understand. But in that case, Zoro will be able to see Joseph and the other guy more easily in the future, since the three of them are brothers."

"Huh? I didn't expect that. Yeah, Zoro would be really happy to know. By the way, I haven't even asked yet, what are those two doing?"

Noki thought for a moment and said, "They're both fishing now, and they're making quite a bit of money. They really enjoy fishing; maybe they have some kind of talent for it."

"What kind of talent is that? I'm really impressed by those two. But if Zoro knew, he'd probably be quite happy. By the way, Nojiko, any big news lately?"

Nojiko asked in confusion, "Big news? What would be considered big news?"

"For example... the movements of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the movements of the Navy, and some other matters in the seas. Oh, and the Whitebeard Pirates."

Nojiko thought for a moment and said, "Well... Blackbeard is wanted and on the run. His status as a Shichibukai has also been revoked. Whitebeard seems to be seriously injured. We don't know where the Whitebeard Pirates are right now. And it seems like the Navy has been keeping up with a lot of news lately."

"For example?"

"For example... the Navy's strategist Sengoku and the other admirals seem to be researching something lately. All they say is that Sengoku will take responsibility for the Navy soldiers who died in the battle with the Whitebeard Pirates at sea and for the loss of face for the Navy. That's all I know."

Nami thought for a moment and said, "No wonder Hancock has been so busy lately. It seems there are some things that need to be dealt with within the Navy..."

"Didn't you say you'd quit being a pirate and become your own boss? You're not even in this world anymore, so why are you asking these questions?"

Nami shook her head and said, "I don't know anything about what's happening here. Hancock always says that everything is under control. I don't know anything. Luffy and the others are training. After their two-year training is over, there will be even more news they don't know."

"so?"

"So Zoro will definitely come to the shop, and I can tell him the news. Even if he doesn't come, I can go back to the ship and tell them. Two years is enough time for many unexpected things to happen."

Nojiko sighed and said, "Fine, but do you really still want to see them? Can you bear to say you want to quit?"

Nami sighed and said, "Sure, I'm not really a crew member anyway. Compared to drifting at sea like this, I think my family is more important. Besides..."

"Ok?"

"Two years from now... I might just be getting married by then, Nojiko. Do you think I'd abandon my lover and family to continue being a pirate?"

Noki nodded and said, "That's not wrong... but your reasons aren't limited to these."

"how do you know?"

"Because I'm your older sister!"

Nami smiled, hugged Nojiko's arm, and said softly, "I'll have my own children someday too..."

"so?"

"This sea is too turbulent. I don't know how long it will take to end. Nojiko, I think the two of us know the value of family the most."

Nojiko didn't speak, but Nami breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "We are all war orphans who lost our original parents, but Bellemere adopted us. She is my real mother, the best mother. I think you feel the same way, you know how important a mother is to a child."

"Um..."

"My future child will definitely be very happy because she will have a complete family and a stable life, so... Nojigo, you know what I'm thinking now."

Nojiko sighed and said, "A peaceful life, with my own parents... um... Nami..."

"Ok?"

“You will also be a great mother like Bellemere in the future.”

Nami laughed and said, "I can't compare to Bellemere. I can only do my best to do my job well, and there's one last reason."

"what?"

Nami smiled and said, "If my child asks me what I do for a living in the future, am I supposed to tell her that I'm a pirate?"

"You're thinking quite far ahead, but there's no problem... Hmm? Nami, that look in your eyes... what are you trying to say?"

Nami grinned mischievously and said, "Nojiko... I've got everything settled. What about you? Aren't you thinking about settling down?"

Noki rolled her eyes and said, "I have no interest in them. I don't even look at those men. Besides, I have to take care of the orange grove. Do you think I have nothing to do? I'll be content if you can settle down and be happy like this forever."

"Huh? Nojiko, are you really going to stay single forever?"

"It's not that it's impossible, but I'm not like you."

"Hmm... in that case..."

"Ok?"

"Nochiko, please stay with me forever."

"You still need someone to keep you company."

"That's different! To paraphrase Bai Yu... no one thinks they have enough money, so Nuoqi Gao, just stay with me, since you're planning to live alone anyway."

"Let's talk again."

"Eh?!"

Chapter 507 Caspar's Phone Call: A Surprise for a Feast (Please Subscribe~)

In the other shop, Lucifer and the others had also returned and were having dinner. Riven asked in confusion, "So, you came back first, and then Nami is bringing Nojiko over to check the place out later?"

Bai Yu nodded and said, "That's about right. By the way, Xiao Qiong, why aren't you saying anything?"

Kasugano Sora shuddered before whispering, "Um... Shiraha-nii, I... what should I say..."

"It's nothing, I just brought you a lot of local specialties."

"Special...Brother Baiyu, I...I don't want the local specialties anymore! Wait...what local specialties?"

Bai Yu didn't speak, only smiled and shook his head. Kasugano Sora also didn't speak, but puffed out her cheeks and whispered, "Brother Bai Yu, I just came out of curiosity... I just wanted to take a look..."

"Ok?"

"Well....."

Bai Yu sighed and said, "I have absolutely no idea what you're thinking. If there were some kind of Zoan-type, that would be interesting..."

"Uh... I was wrong..."

"It's not entirely wrong. Alright, let's eat quickly. The exam is in two days. How's your preparation going?"

Kasugano Sora perked up at this, chuckled, and said, "Ready! Shiraha-nii! Just wait and see if you'll keep your promise!"

"You have to be number one in the class to qualify."

"No problem! I'm absolutely prepared!"

Kraki laughed and said, "So confident, huh? I haven't seen you study much. You didn't prepare any notes, did you?"

"What?! I tried my best! I wouldn't use a cheat sheet even if I handed in a blank paper!"

Dekkera nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll see how you do then. You guys can compare your scores, and whoever does the worst will get a lesson from Lucy and Yumiko."

"That must be Sonoko-neechan! We're completely different!"

Riven asked in confusion, "What's the difference between you two?"

"I'm bad at science, while she's bad at everything. So I've been cramming on science lately. Just you wait and see, I'll definitely get first place in the class, and maybe even first place in the grade!"

Lucifer said softly, "Then we'll talk about it when you get there. I'm quite curious to see what kind of wish you'll make."

"It's a secret, but when is Yuno coming back...?"

Zhengyi chuckled and said, "Hey! Didn't you see? Yuno posted an update this morning."

"No, I didn't check my phone this morning. I came downstairs to eat after washing up. What did Yuna post?"

"So... Yuno met a little girl, I think her name is... Konan?"

"Huh? I don't know, little girl... How did Yuno and she meet?"

"I don't know, but I do know that Yuno goes to see Minami to do origami whenever she has time. Origami looks quite interesting. Does any of you know how to do origami?"

Kobayashi Rindou proudly raised his hand, and Akanekubo Momo also raised her hand. Lucifer said in confusion, "Momo can be understood, but Rindou, you can fold paper?"

"Of course! I loved craft classes when I was little! And your sister Longdan is quite the craft expert, I'm very skillful."

"Whose older sister am I?"

Kobayashi Rindou's lips twitched, and he stopped talking and ate in silence. Cerberus, however, asked in confusion, "Hmm? Sora, did you also take craft classes?"

Kasugano Sora's eyes twitched, then she coughed lightly and said calmly, "Those people are too childish. We can't play together, so they have no interest in doing crafts like kids."

Rantabhi rolled his eyes and said, "Give me a break, you just never paid attention in class."

"Uh... I didn't!"

"Go, go, go."

Seeing this attitude, Kasugano Sora knew no one believed her, so she didn't say anything more. Aside from the possibility of getting into trouble if she continued saying anything at this point, simply put... she really hadn't attended any craft classes properly...

After finishing his meal, Bai Yu sat down to the side. Just as he was about to pick up his phone, he paused and asked in confusion, "Huh? Who is this again?"

"Hmm? Another call from an unknown number?"

Bai Yu nodded, walked to the door to hang up the "Open for Business" sign, and answered the phone. All he heard was the sound of an aluminum can being thrown into the trash can. Bai Yu sighed and said, "It's you again? You changed your phone number again?"

"How do you know it was me?"

"Because among the people I know, you're the only one who still loves eating junk food while living abroad, so who else could it be but you?"

Kasper paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "That's truly unique! What date did you go on your trip?"

"Departing on the evening of the 10th, the evening of the 10th in Japan."

Kasper thought for a moment and said, "Where should we go first?"

"The fashion capital might be a good choice, but... there might be better options nearby to make it your first stop."

"It's not far away. I've saved you a surprise."

Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment and asked in confusion, "A surprise you left for me?"

"Correct."

"A family bucket?"

Kasper paused for a moment before saying irritably, "Hey, what kind of lunatic would I have to be to bring you food? It's some kind of surprise."

"Really? I'm surprisingly looking forward to it. Where is it?"

"The villa, the one I gave you back then. You can pick it up yourself on the 20th. I've hired a cleaner to clean it."

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "Something feels off to me..."

"Nothing's wrong, just go there. Also... I might come see you around the 20th, let's grab a drink sometime."

"Are you sure you're here to drink?"

"Of course, but we can't just drink alcohol, right? You should prepare a big meal for us."

Bai Yu sighed and said, "Fine... I knew you were here to freeload."

"That's true, but it's also true that I said the surprise for you is at the villa. Remember to go to the villa on the 20th, there's a surprise there."

"I understand. This surprise will determine what kind of feast you get."

"I remember there's something in China called... the Manchu Han Imperial Feast?"

"Forehead...."
