Pirate: I'm not the King of the Sea, so don't mess with me.

I don't know how long I slept.

When he opened his eyes again, the hustle and bustle in the kitchen had long ended.

The nose is full of rich food aroma.

Zheniya rubbed her eyes, smelled the fragrance and saw the food that was still warm and placed beside her.

There are meatballs with sweet and sour sauce, thinly sliced ​​ham, fried noodles with shredded pork, and even cup cream cakes.

Zheniya's eyes lit up.

Half a piece of chocolate wasn't enough, so she fell asleep out of boredom.

I didn’t expect that food would be next to me when I woke up.

She stretched out her hand to get it, and suddenly froze again.

The pink face with fine hair stuck to it was especially marked with indentations and saliva marks, and the clear aqua blue eyes searched around in confusion.

It was still the familiar ventilation duct, but the only thing missing was the dragon.

"Where's the dragon?" Zheniya reached out and poked the coiled teeth.

Taya raised his eyelids: "I went to check out the terrain. He asked you to fill your stomach first."

Then the tip of its tail pulled out the little phone bug hiding in the corner and pushed it in front of Zenia.

"I left this for you before I left."

Zheniya reached out and grabbed the little phone bug that was shaking and almost fainting. Naturally, she got a clingy little thing with tears in its eyes and rubbed against her hand.

Zheniya was already used to it, so she put the phone bug on her chest, picked up the fried noodles and started eating.

While eating, I was moved: "o(TヘTo) is indeed a dragon, careful and considerate."

Taya thought about the unspeakable expression on the kid's face before he left, and added speechlessly: "He asked me to tell you, don't act rashly until you find evidence."

Zheniya buried her face in the plate and responded vaguely.

Get the dragon is not worried at all.

Puffing up her cheeks and eating all the food like a little hamster, Zenia rubbed her belly and found that she was not full yet.

She looked distressed and her expression was wrinkled: "I've eaten a lot more since I started exercising seriously." Zheniya sighed: "I still feel so hungry~"

Turning around and lying down in the ventilation duct, I looked down through the gap in the grille and found that there was no one in the kitchen.

good chance!

She curled her lips and smiled playfully, grabbed Ta Ya and pried open the grille, and jumped down the ventilation duct lightly.

Ta Ya climbed up her wrist to her shoulder, his sharp vertical pupils flashing cold light in the slightly dim kitchen.

Zheniya showed off her knowledge, looking here and there, and finally stood in front of the chain-locked refrigerator.

"Why lock it up?"

While complaining, she twisted the seastone filaments on her wrist into one thread and pried open the lock of the refrigerator with ease.

It was filled with a dazzling array of food. Smelling the aroma, Zheniya's eyes sparkled.

"Hmm~ I just wanted to say that the cakes at the naval base are delicious."

"And this and this~, the omelette is fried just right."

“The ham sausage is also delicious~”

"It's delicious~ The craftsmanship is really good, it's not inferior to the big cafeteria in the headquarters."

Zheniya narrowed her eyes happily, holding her bulging cheeks with her white hands, looking playful and cute.

While eating, Zheniya suddenly thought of the dragon, so she asked Taya: "By the way, Taya, has the dragon eaten it?"

Taya shook his head and was about to speak when voices came from outside the door.

"No one else saw it?"

"No no!"

"Hurry up then. I've put the prepared food in the wooden box in advance."

"I know, you are so verbose!"

Zheniya's eyes flashed, she quickly plundered the food in the refrigerator and stuffed it into the bracelet, then closed the refrigerator door and locked it again.

He looked around for a hiding place, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he ducked under the dining car covered with white cloth.

From the outside, the sound of moving things came, and Zheniya quietly lifted the white cloth and looked outside.

I saw two figures putting two large boxes on the cart.

She put down the white cloth and frowned slightly.

Judging from the conversation just now, it was obvious that the two of them came here quietly.

The two wooden boxes containing food were probably as big as the food truck she was hiding in.

Then the problem is coming.

What are they doing secretly with all this food?

Zheniya's eyes flickered, she slowly narrowed her eyes, and suddenly said quietly to Taya: "Taya, follow them quietly."

Taya nodded, twisted his little body, quickly slid down Zheniya's shoulders, and disappeared outside the white cloth.

*

The door was quietly opened a crack.

An eyeball suddenly appeared in the crack of the door, looking at everything outside the door.

The sound of neat footsteps came from far and near, and the owner of the eyeball quickly closed the door.

Ghost Spider gently closed the door and turned to the window.

He said with a straight face: "The patrols are very frequent."

It seemed right and wrong, but both of them understood the meaning.

Sakaski looked out the window at the dark night scene. The searchlights high up on the base slowly passed by the window from far to near, illuminating the man's angular face like a rock.

Sakaski's face was expressionless and his eyes were deep, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

"You stay here!"

He suddenly said to Ghost Spider in a deep voice.

Ghost Spider was stunned and subconsciously asked: "Major General, you..."

Sakaski turned around and suddenly looked at the vent grille on the ceiling.

The ghost spider glanced over subconsciously, and then showed an expression of shock and speechlessness.

For a long time, he stared wide-eyed and asked in disbelief: "You don't mean to..."

"Hey, hey, is it a dragon?"

Zheniya lay down in the ventilation duct, covering her lips with her hands, and whispered to the person on the other side of the phone for fear of being heard.

The person on the other side was silent for a while, and then a low and cold voice came: [It's me. 】

Seeing his answer, Zheniya knew that it was safe for the time being.

So he quickly told him what he had just seen in the kitchen.

At the end, Zheniya made a serious analysis: "I suspect that the group of people stole the food for the kidnapped young women. I have asked Taya to follow them."

"Where are you? Is there any progress?"

[The other party is very hidden and has not been found yet. 】

"That's it!" Zheniya's eyes suddenly lit up and she said to Long excitedly: "Are you coming to me or should I go to you?"

【……I will look for you. 】

Zheniya smiled so hard that she couldn’t even see her teeth: “Okay!”

The two agreed on a meeting place and hung up the phone.

However, while crawling to the agreed upon location, Zenia unexpectedly met someone who shouldn't be here.

The two met at the corner of the ventilation duct.

In an instant, their eyes met.

Zheniya couldn't believe it so much that her hairs broke out.

"S-Sakas... ugh!"

As soon as the scream started, the man opposite quickly put a hand on the back of the girl's head and covered her mouth with his other hand, pressing her down.

Zheniya was knocked down, but she did not struggle. Instead, her eyes were dull and she looked at the top of the pipe with confused thoughts...

Full of disbelief.

Am I hallucinating?

How could this guy be here?

Also, he climbed into the ventilation duct! ! ! ∑(口||

Because she couldn't believe it, Zheniya stretched out her hand and pinched the man's waist, using ten percent of her strength.

Sakaski didn't expect to be pinched suddenly. He frowned and groaned in pain.

Zheniya's wide eyes trembled:! ! !

pain!

it is true!

It's not an illusion, this guy is actually Sakaski! ! ! ∑(口||

On the other hand, Sakaski, who covered the girl's mouth and pressed him down, secretly grinded his teeth, but no matter how much he said, he just sighed helplessly: "Yaya, let go!"

Zenia:......
