Original God, starting from the sister against the brother

"No need, just take the flowers yourself."

"My sentence is only 14 days in total, and these 5000 concession vouchers are enough for me to spend."

He waved his hand towards Ke and said.

However, it is true that the children of [Heartland House] have no shortage of [concession tickets].

After all, this thing was issued by the Fatui executive [Rich Man Pantalone], and the right to mint coins may still be in the hands of [Winter Kingdom].

It would be strange if the Fatui didn't have any stock.

After hearing Chao Ke's refusal, the bald young man Elio nodded to show that he understood, and then disappeared into the crowd.

Chao Ke looked at the head of the team. During their conversation, the [Franchise Canteen] in Melo Petersburg had already opened for business and was accommodating these early arriving prisoners.

“Click-click-”

Following a noise, a small door opened next to the [Franchise Canteen] and a young chef came out pushing a small cart.

Dozens of lunch boxes were neatly stacked on the cart.

The opaque metal material firmly isolates the food inside, making it impossible to see through or smell it.

These are the [welfare meals] distributed free of charge to prisoners by the [Franchise Kitchen] every day.

Thanks to this, some prisoners who are lazy and don't want to move can maintain their vital signs and survive in this [Mello Petersburg].

As the welfare meals began to be distributed, the line in front of Chao Ke visibly shrank a lot, with only three or two people left at the payment window.

It seems that getting something for free is human nature.

But it’s a good thing this way, as it makes it convenient for Chao Ke who needs to wait at the payment window.

As the people in the front line finished ordering their meals, Chao Ke arrived at the payment window.

"What would you like, sir?"

"I have the [Almond Trout] that was just made this morning. The trout meat fried in butter is so delicious."

"And this Coffee Babar is a refreshing cold dessert. Eating one of these will keep you awake for the whole day."

"Customers, please rest assured that the meals ordered with [franchise coupons] are all made by reliable chefs, and the taste is guaranteed."

The cafeteria manager, Welsai, carefully introduced the dishes to Chao Ke.

Although the [Franchise Canteen] has special subsidies provided by [Mello Petersburg], it cannot make a loss.

But who would refuse to earn more [franchise coupons]?

Following Welsey's introduction, Chao Ke's eyes wandered over the food in the cafeteria.

Just as Welsey had introduced, the quality of dishes that could only be eaten with a [Special Coupon] was indeed guaranteed, and even according to the system's scoring standards, they would have to score more than [70 points].

So, Chao Ke didn't hesitate, pointed to the menu hanging on the [Franchise Canteen] and said.

"Here's a recipe."

"Um?!"

[Franchise Canteen] Supervisor Welsey looked at Chao Ke in surprise and said uncertainly, "Sir, do you mean to order all the dishes on the menu?"

"of course."

He shrugged and said to Ke.

"By the way, Fengda, give me a few more bottles and pack these meals together."

"okay!!"

With a big business coming, Welsey looked quite happy. He quickly sent a chef over to serve Chao Ke with him.

A few minutes later, Welsey stacked several lunch boxes together, then wrapped them in paper and reinforced them with rope.

"Sir, here are the [Coffee Barbacoa], [Grilled Spare Ribs], [Beast Meat Mint Roll] you ordered... and four bottles of Fontana for you."

"A total of 800 [Special Vouchers]."

"Ah."

Chao Ke first ordered a concession ticket of the corresponding amount and handed it to Welsey before taking his meal from the window.

"By the way, have you considered selling the recipes of these dishes? They smell delicious and I want to make them for my family after I get out of prison."

"Eh?"

Welsey was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Oh, no problem, sir."

"There are vocational training classes for prisoners in [Mello Petersburg], and the recipes of the dishes sold in the [Franchise Canteen] are all public."

"If you want it, just pay me the registration fee of 2000 [franchise vouchers] and I can write it down for you right now."

"If you want to practice later, you can always come to the kitchen of the [franchised canteen] to practice for free."

As Welsai continued to talk, Chao Ke seemed to understand why the quality of the [welfare meals] was uncontrollable.

It turns out that the food that doesn’t taste good is the practice work of the students in this cooking training class.

This Welsai knows how to make money. It not only earns the students' tuition, but also saves the labor cost of the [franchised canteen]. It's quite smart.

But as long as he could get the recipe, it was enough for Chao Ke.

So, he said to Ke.

"Okay, I've signed up for this training class. Here's the [franchise voucher], and I want the recipes for these four dishes now."

As he spoke to Ke, he took out a large stack of [Special Coupons] from his possession and handed them to Welsey.

He pointed to the menu of the [Franchise Canteen] and pointed out the recipe of the dish he needed.

"Okay, I'll give it to you right away."

Welsey took the [franchise ticket] handed to him by Chao Ke with a beaming face and put it in his pocket.

The canteen manager left the food window, walked to the table nearby, and took a pen to write a menu for Chao Ke.

However, Welsey did not forget his duty to serve meals to the prisoners, and turned around and shouted to the kitchen.

"Hey! The new Luger, come out and ask questions and serve the guests."

"Roger that, Mr. Supervisor."

A clear answer came from the kitchen, and Chao Ke, who was standing outside the [Franchise Canteen], was slightly stunned by the name "Ruger".

In the [Fontaine Catering Industry Alliance Food Selection Competition], what about the Ruger who competed with me on the same stage...

Judging from the voice, it should be him.

Thinking of this, Chao Ke stood slightly away from the food window to avoid looking at Ruge.

Chao Ke had nothing to say about this guy Ruger.

He and his father both deserved it.

But, after all, it was he and his group who secretly executed his father James, and brother Donatello was still waiting for his apology in the cell, so Chao Ke didn't want to create trouble at this time.

So, he stood in Ruger's blind spot, silently waiting for Welser, the director of the [Franchise Canteen], to hand the recipe to him.

Finally, after more than ten minutes.

After Welsai finished writing the four recipes, he walked to the food window and wanted to give them to Chao Ke, but he didn't see Chao Ke.

"Where did you go?"

Welsey frowned, stuck his head out of the food window in confusion, and began to look around.

Finally, Welsey found Chao Ke in a corner.

"Phew, thank Lady Finina, I finally found you, sir."

"Here, these pieces of paper are the recipes you want, please keep them."

As Chao Ke reached out to take the recipe, he heard a system prompt sound next to his ear.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Almond Trout]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Grilled Ribs]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Coffee Babaru]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Lamb Haggis]

[Number of recipes unlocked in the food illustrations: 90, number of recipes cooked to perfection: 20]

After hearing the feedback from the system, Chao Ke nodded silently to Welsey, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, even with this brief contact, Chao Ke's figure was still discovered by Ruger.

"Chao Ke! Wait a minute!"

As Luger screamed, the steps that were leaving Chao Ke also stopped.

He turned to look at Luger and said to Ke.

"I have something urgent to say. If you have anything to say to me, please be brief."

Chao Ke's words interrupted the excited Ruger. Thousands of thoughts flowed through Ruger's mind, some scolding, some cursing, some regretful, some begging for mercy...

But in the end, it was just a question.

"Chao Ke, is my father...still alive?"

"Jans is dead."

"He was secretly executed by the Fontaine upper echelons and the Hearth House. I was at the scene when he died."

After saying this, Chao Ke turned and left, no longer paying attention to Luge.

"Is that so..."

"Thanks..."

------------

at the same time.

Melo Petersburg cell block.

"its not right..."

"its not right..."

Donatello murmured quietly while flipping through his wife's diary.

There was indeed a record in my wife's diary that several of my former colleagues had transferred to work in the Gray River District for unknown reasons.

He was still helping out at the branch of Jiaziwei Restaurant opened by Chao Ke, and became a colleague with his daughter Xia Wole.

but...

My wife's mind hasn't changed!

The lines of words in the diary and the tear marks that appear from time to time on the pages are all expressing the wife's longing and worry for herself, and all of them reflect the strong relationship between the couple.

Donatello bit his lip, the emotional words were warm.

Through the touch of his fingertips, he could understand the anxiety and sadness hidden beneath his wife's love.

This diary was like a window, allowing him to see through the bottom of the sea and catch a glimpse of his wife's appearance in the Gray River District.

"Hu~~"

Donatello took a deep breath, and for once in a while he began to waver as he firmly believed in justice.

If I had given in and not pursued the matter further, I would not have ended up in this situation.

However, this thought did not last for more than a few seconds, and disappeared with Donatello's bitter smile.

"hehe."

I thought my will was strong enough, but judging from what happened just now, it's not much better.

If the old captain were still alive, he would have given himself a beating.

Donatello smiled again and subconsciously reached for his trouser leg, wanting to have a dick.

Unexpectedly, he found nothing.

That’s right, we’ve all been imprisoned in [Mello Petersburg], and things like cigarettes were taken away when we were imprisoned.

I heard that there is a black market selling it in prison, so we should prepare some.

Donatello shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and continued to read his wife's diary.

As the pages turned, Donatello became more and more absorbed in reading, and he didn't even notice the noise coming from the cell door.

As the date on the diary approaches today, Donatello becomes more and more confused.

“This is not right…”

His wife's feelings for him did not fade with the passage of time, but instead grew stronger.

Donatello picked up the few remaining pages of the diary, unable to understand.

“That’s not right…”

There are only a few days left. It's impossible for my wife to change her mind in less than a week, right?

Intense confusion and doubt filled Donatello's heart, making his eyes, which had already been up all night, even redder.

"Mr. Donatello, please control your emotions for a moment."

"You are already very tired, so don't let your spirit fluctuate too much."

On the side, Head Nurse Sigwen, who had been observing for a while, gave a reminder.

"If you can, just lie down and rest for a while."

"Don't worry, I'll give you a case book, don't worry about the morning work."

"Um?!"

The sudden voice in his ear made Donatello alert instantly. After all, as a member of the [Fontainebleau Court and Grand Court] who dealt with criminals all year round, Donatello was very vigilant.

It was just that Donatello stayed up all night and was completely immersed in his wife's diary, which made him fail to notice Sigwen's footsteps.

But when he saw that the person coming was Head Nurse Sigwen, Donatello's nervous expression relaxed and his guard was lifted.

"Thank you for your concern, head nurse. I will go to rest..."

"But before I rest, please let me finish reading the remaining pages of the diary."

"Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep well."

"Hmm~hmm~"

Sigwen nodded and said, "If you stay up late, it's better to drink some hot milk in the morning."

"I have some [special milkshakes] here, I'll go heat them up for you."

As Sigwen spoke, she took out two sealed small bottles from her waist and walked towards a small heating table for boiling water in the double cell.

"Thank you for your care, head nurse. May the glory of the water god be upon you."

Looking at Sigwen's back, Donatello said sincerely.

No wonder all the prisoners in [Mello Petersburg] said that Miss Sigwen was an [Angel]. Now it seems that it is true.

Donatello no longer looked at the head nurse. He concentrated his mind and continued to check his wife's diary.

.....

[12 month 24 day]

.....

Thousand Souls' Day is just one day away. On this day in previous years, little Xia Volei would have pestered her father for candy and Thousand Souls' Day gifts.

But this year, the child seemed to have grown up all of a sudden. Not only did he not mention the [Thousand Spirits Festival Gift] at all, he also went to work.

It makes sense. Major holidays are always the busiest days for restaurants.

Little Xiawolei is fine. The restaurant owner is a nice person and strictly abides by the Fontainebleau Child Labor Law. Even if there is overtime, the total working hours are limited.

I heard from little Xia Wulei that one of my father's former colleagues couldn't live with other male employees because she was a woman.

Therefore, I had to live alone and rent a single room far away from the restaurant. It was expensive and far away. The daily commute was very long. I also had to deal with the occasional hooligans who approached me on my way home from get off work at night. Therefore, I looked a little haggard during this period.
