Lucifer sacrificed too much for world peace

With such an important business to discuss, Galileo is not in the mood to continue making sudoku coffee here, he has to go home and find his father.

But before the coffee was finished... Galileo was a little tangled.

Lucifer saw Galileo's distress and offered to help him pack.

Anyway, he got a disposable cup x100 that is wholesaled to milk tea shops, and he was worried that he would not have a chance to use it.

So Galileo was pleasantly surprised to get a cup of coffee served in a paper cup.

"This is... paper?"

Galileo took the cup in his hand and looked at it, feeling very novel.

Because Lucifer didn't get a matching cover, it could only be left open.Fortunately, the capacity of the original coffee cup does not match the capacity of this paper cup. After pouring it in, it is only a little more than half, so there is no need to worry about spilling it.

According to the habit of "bitter coffee is more difficult to drink when it is cold", Einstein only lowered the temperature of the coffee to the point where it can be drunk after blowing on it, but it is slightly scalding, so the heat of the coffee itself is still obvious, but Galileo turned the cup Holding it in the hand, it is only separated by a thin paper wall, but it seems that the temperature inside cannot be felt.

He guessed it after a little thought: "Double layer?"

Lucifer nodded.

As expected of Detective Galileo (no), he discovered it so quickly.

Galileo's eyes lit up: "This technology is also great...Sorry, I'm going home right now, and I'll bring my father right away!"

After saying that, Galileo carefully took the cup and went home to find his father.

On the other side, Einstein, who was still slowly drinking coffee in small sips, leisurely pinched the handle of the coffee cup, walked around the long table to watch other people play heretics, and quietly checked their identities Card, and then listened to their talk and speculation, the whole person laughed like a fool, and was finally driven away by everyone, telling him not to get in the way.

In fact, the taste of coffee is so fragrant, Einstein held the coffee cup so close, but they couldn't drink it, which was very painful.

Up to now, almost everyone has at least one red winner's point in their hands, and each of them secretly made up their minds. After the game is over, they will go to exchange for drinks—they are so thirsty!

So, when Galileo hurried to the Apple Store with his father, what greeted them was not the aroma of coffee, but a sweeter taste.

Papa Galileo: "...? Is this also coffee?"

"Do not."

Someone suddenly said behind Galileo and his son who were blocking the door: "This is... the smell of tea and milk!"

Realizing that they were blocking the way, the Galileo father and son quickly avoided to let the people behind come in.

This person looked to be around 50 or [-] years old, with a beard and a robe made of folded cloth. On his arms, he could see smooth but not exaggerated muscles.

Galileo's father raised his eyebrows and realized that he was an acquaintance: "Isn't this Archimedes?"

Archimedes nodded to Galileo and his son, then impatiently walked forward, approached the nearest person, and asked, "What are you drinking?"

"Uh." Jack, who was asked, scratched his hair, "Master Sage said it was milk tea."

Archimedes showed a thoughtful expression: "Milk tea... use milk to make tea?"

Tea was a rare commodity that had to be transported from far away, and it was even possible that the caravan sold out before reaching the vicinity of the Garden of Eden.

Therefore, everyone in the Garden of Eden drinks carefully, following the most traditional drinking method taught by the caravan, only using hot water to brew, enjoying the fragrance of the tea, for fear that some evil way of doing it on the spur of the moment will not taste good and ruin themselves only tea.

Although the place where Archimedes lived was better than the Garden of Eden, he had never tried adding milk, which made him very curious about the taste.

"Is the milk good enough to open the tea leaves?"

"It's not directly using milk to make tea."

A cold voice suddenly sounded, and Archimedes followed the reputation, and found that the other party was coming out of the door that was probably the back kitchen.

The man was tall and slender, dressed in simple clothes, with jet-black hair tied behind his head, revealing a handsome face that eclipsed everything around him, and the pair of rare golden eyes staring at him quietly under the broken hair, his whole person had a kind of brilliance An awe-inspiring aura—it even makes one faintly feel that the other party's hair should not be such a deep black, but should be a brighter color.

He smiled at Archimedes, even though his expression was still full of indifference, but even though he was not enthusiastic at all, Archimedes still felt inexplicably flattered.

"Want to try a drink?" he asked.

Archimedes nodded in a daze.

"Then let's try it."

Archimedes: "......???"

Galileo's father quietly complained to Galileo: "The people there advocate beauty in body and mind, and they especially like beauties, and beauties are regardless of gender...But grown men especially like to grow beards. Isn't this contradictory? Just like this Archimis De, when he didn't grow a beard, he was also a generation of handsome men."

Galileo was a little speechless: "Is this okay? I don't feel right, will it cause divine punishment..."

"It's okay if you don't go too far? The pursuit of physical and mental beauty will make them work harder to exercise and make themselves smarter. There is no bad effect, otherwise it will not be passed down as a tradition."

Galileo's father said calmly: "And it's not bad for us. It's more advantageous for good-looking people to do business with them."

Galileo: "..."

It seemed that the sage was a little busy. Father Galileo, who had tasted half a cup of coffee brought by his son at home, was not in a hurry. He found a place to sit down with his son, and looked around to observe the shop.

Galileo's father had heard of this store before, but it was only to the extent that his son came back to mention it on the day he was called to help solve the problem for the church review.

He didn't pay much attention to this store until his son hurried home just now and let him taste the coffee that subverted his impression all along.

It's also coffee, and the raw materials are also coffee beans. How can someone else's coffee be so delicious, even bitter and unique, and the coffee he drank before was so difficult to drink? !

So, after hearing from his son that he could get the recipe for making delicious coffee from Mr. Sage, Galileo's father threw down the account book at hand without hesitation, and traveled all the way, for fear that people would think that he was not sincere enough later.

Now, the other person has arrived, and his attitude has been expressed. If it is Mr. Sage who is not free, then it doesn't matter.

Galileo's father finally had time to ask his son more information about this store.

"The boy from the Einstein family is also here. In other words, at Elder Bill's banquet before, I seemed to hear that someone tasted the wine that Elder Bill brought to the boy from the Einstein family. Unexpectedly, the reaction was flat..."

At that time, he was still wondering who was so tasteless, but now it seems that if that person is Mr. Sage, everything can be explained.

Even the coffee can be made so delicious, and the wine that is not bad to drink may have been made more delicious!

When Galileo and his son exchanged information with each other, Archimedes finally figured out what he needed to do if he wanted to drink a cup of milk tea.

However, he was faced with a bunch of trial names, and it was a little difficult for him to choose for a while.

Einstein raised his hand and suggested, "Let's play mahjong!"

When Mr. Sage was talking about the rules last time, he and his friends tried to play a round of mahjong. He almost managed to play a difficult all-in-one game, but was given by Ludwig Gauss with an ordinary garbage card. Huh, I almost vomited blood...

At that time, he thought that if he had the opportunity, he must do everything once and get back the scene from that time. Unfortunately, several other people prefer to kill heretics, so they have been procrastinating until now.

Archimedes had never tried any of the trials, so he agreed indifferently.

Lord Sage scanned the store: "Three missing one, who else wants to try mahjong?"

Galileo's father pondered for a second, then raised his hand: "I want to try."

Ruth was also curious: "I want to try it too."

Lord Sage nodded: "Okay, then I don't have to join the battle, everyone come here."

So, they were led to a square table with mahjong tiles neatly arranged, ready to start at any time.

After Mr. Sage explained the rules to them, both Archimedes and Galileo's father thought about it.

They feel that this trial is actually quite simple, especially since the content of the cards is fixed. After getting used to it, they should be able to count the cards in other people's hands, and it seems that it is not too difficult to win.

Einstein read their thoughts and felt as if he saw himself once.

He sighed faintly, without reminding them, he just said calmly, "Let's get started."

So it started.

According to the rules, when playing cards, the more complex the card type, the more difficult it is to win, and the higher the points you get. Archimedes and Galileo, who thought this test was not difficult, looked at the cards in their hands. Everyone is very confident, and they plan to challenge a high level of difficulty when they plan to come up.

Then I was taught to be a human being.

You can’t always find the cards you want, and the previous player won’t give you the cards you need. No matter how good the initial cards look, it’s useless!

Especially Archimedes, he started with five pairs, so he planned to make a special hand type [seven pairs], as long as he got seven pairs of the same cards, he could win, and he only needed to draw one more and the hand already had You can wait for others to light the cannons if you get the cards.

As a result, he missed the chance to touch the cards because of his self-confidence at the beginning. Later, when he realized that he was unlucky, he couldn't get the cards he wanted, and he didn't want to make seven pairs-Ruth won.

Ruth herself was also surprised: "I didn't expect it to be so easy."

Archimedes, who couldn't get the cards he wanted: "..."

Einstein sighed.

Mahjong is a kind of test, although it seems that it is very advantageous to count cards, but when you are unlucky, even if you have clairvoyance, you can only be more desperate...

"Luck is also a part of strength." The sage said calmly, "It's time for Einstein to be the banker...you should shuffle the cards first."

In the second game, Archimedes got a good memory, and saw that his cards could be all-in-one, and he could touch and eat as soon as he could, and the journey went very smoothly. He was about to call Hu, and he waited for someone to shoot Yes, it's hearty.

"Call Hu!" He finally shouted this sentence.

Lord Sage reminded: "If you call Hu, you can no longer change cards, you can only Hu the card you are waiting for now."

Archimedes nodded.

He waited for a nine cakes, which had a high chance of being played after being drawn.

As a result, he had just nodded his head, but before he raised his head, he heard Galileo's father suddenly say, "Ah... ah, this is a hidden bar, isn't it?"

A concealed kong means that you have drawn four of the same cards, and you can draw another one from the end of the card mountain.

"Yes." The sage nodded.

According to the rules told by the sage, Galileo showed his four Kong cards to others, then buckled back the cards on both sides, and pushed them to the corner at hand.

"…………"

Archimedes was completely dumbfounded.

That concealed kong is four nine cakes... There is not one left of the nine cakes he asked for! ! !

----

ps: The hidden kong rules in this chapter are in accordance with Japanese mahjong, and kong cards need to be announced.

Other rules are based on Japanese mahjong and mixed with local mahjong rules, which is convenient for novices to calculate points. Calling Hu does not mean standing straight.The rules are not explained in detail in the text.
