It was early autumn, the sky was bright and clear, but the temperature of the scorching sun still made the staff working under it sweat profusely.

The person she was looking for was obviously sitting in a sun that was too bright, but it seemed to be rejecting the temperature of the whole world, exuding a gloomy coldness.The black imperial-style long dress spread around her body, reminding Lingo unconsciously of scenes from some old European movies.

The gloomy sky, the bleak drizzle, the solemn pines and cypresses, and...a woman standing in front of the cross holding a black umbrella with an empty expression.

Although I was still more than ten meters away from her at this time, I still couldn't see the expression on her face clearly.

Ringo walked to her side, and his shadow spread across the grass and landed on her body.But the change of light and shadow did not distract her from looking at the river.No, to be honest, Ringo couldn't tell whether she was looking at something or not.Those smoky gray eyes were too light, making it impossible to see the light inside.

She sat here without blinking her eyes, as if she couldn't even see the rise and fall of her chest clearly.The whole person seems to be a wax figure composed only of black and white, without any breath of life, only the pendant on his chest is still wantonly reflecting the sun's rays.

"Good afternoon, are you Ela Hill senior?"

The exquisite wax figure finally had some lively colors, her eyes trembled slightly, she raised her head extremely slowly, and looked at Lingo against the light, a little vividness was outlined on the delicate and rigid face.

"you know me?"

"Well, I heard sister Ning Ning mentioned about you. My name is Guanyue Ringo, and I'm the store manager here."

"—You said, you turned off the system yourself?"

Is it okay?system?

[Solution: The store manager has the authority to block the system, and can temporarily block it after setting the restart keyword.It's just that once it is blocked for more than a week, the central system will default to the loss of contact with the store manager. 】

"I just want to be quiet and be alone for a while." Ella looked away and continued to stare at the river.

Yesterday Youni said that she was in a bad mood and she looked really serious.

For these Jade Bird employees, the system exists like a half body.From being unaccustomed to having something talking in my head at the beginning, now it has become a daily routine to make jokes with the system from time to time, and it has almost become a part of myself.Not to mention turning it off, if it doesn't pick up immediately after you say something, Lingo will worry about whether there is a bug in it.

Ella was so mourned that even half of her body had to be shielded!

This is Ella, the Ella who completes three orders a day and saves the world 30 times a year!She really couldn't imagine what kind of thing could make her become like this.

"Did something happen?"

Hearing her question, Ella looked up at her, her eyes were terribly empty, but her tone was exceptionally calm, although the content was shocking to Ringo.

"—my husband died."

The air fell into a deathly silence for a while.

"—I was too rash, sorry."

"No, I'm the one who caused you trouble." She stood up and forced a smile on Ringo, "I just want to relax here, if you think it's inconvenient, Miss Guanyue, I can go to another world ..."

"No such thing." Ringo took her hand, "Senior Ella, you can stay as long as you want, and don't be polite if you need anything, just tell me."

In the end, she left the address of the store to Ella, and she was welcome to come and visit at any time. After Ella continued to maintain such a distraught appearance, she disappeared on the other side of the river bank.

"System, is she really okay?"

[Solution: The scan results showed that all her physical indicators were in a normal state, but she was very restless mentally.If her personal system is online, it should constantly issue warnings, and even forcefully send her back to the vicinity of the spiritual anchor. 】

spiritual anchor...

Just like when I was stimulated in the α world, the system sent her to Mr. Dazai without her consent.Ella's system will definitely do the same, but——

"Her spiritual anchor may no longer be there."

[There is not only one spiritual anchor point for human beings. After the system sorts her according to the priority, it will naturally send her to the most suitable place. 】

"Then... maybe she doesn't want to see those people?"

[The data shows that when human beings are mentally weak, they are most taboo to be alone, which is likely to cause more serious consequences.She should trust the system's judgment and make the right decision.Shutting down the system at will like this, and going to the world of other store managers alone, the system does not advocate this kind of behavior, and please do not follow suit. 】

"You don't understand. When I'm in a particularly bad mood, the more you tell me not to do something, the more I want to do something. This is the only way to relieve stress."

[The system really can't understand. 】

Ringo raised his forehead, feeling that he was a bit too silly arguing with an AI.

"You said before that the system can't actively lock employees' skills now, so now that Senior Ella has shut down the system, can her skills still be used?"

[Solution: Skills are bound to the system, turning off the system is equivalent to giving up all skills. 】

Ringo nodded, and solemnly said to the system: "From now on, monitor Senior Aila's physical condition 24 hours a day, and let me know immediately if there is any abnormality."

Although the world is relatively peaceful, crises always exist.And without the skills, being as strong as a store manager is just an ordinary person with slightly better physical fitness than the average person.

Senior Ella suffered such a big blow just now, since he chose her world, he must protect her well.

【As you wish. 】

That night, a detailed report on the fire at the orphanage was delivered to Dazai's desk.

The cause of the fire was aging wires, and exposed sparks ignited paper scraps in the debris pile, which in turn sparked the fire.

Surprisingly, the silver-haired woman met a female staff member in the bathroom, and the other party testified that she had been helping the other party to clean the blood stains on her clothes accidentally during those 10 minutes.In this way, counting the time in and out of the bathroom, she would have no time to go to the fire point.

In other words, unless there is a special ability, such as the ability to ignite a fire from a distance, the fire in the orphanage may really have nothing to do with her.

"Is it just a mere coincidence?"

Today, Tosi was still wandering aimlessly in Yokohama, entering the monitoring range from time to time to swipe his face, obviously telling him that he knew that Dazai was watching him.But now that he knew it, he still walked around confidently every day, as if trying to attract his attention.

The mouse that had been moving secretly in the sewer suddenly changed its habit and walked on the ground, there must be some special purpose.

"What the hell is this guy doing?" Zhong Yuan Zhong who was standing behind him couldn't hold back and asked.

"Probably recording the locations of all the cameras in Yokohama." Dazai said lightly.

"Huh? Now that you know why you let him record it? Wouldn't it be harder to catch him when he memorized it all?"

"I know it's hard to think of such a complicated thing with your slug's IQ, but every time he appears in a crowded place, you should have noticed even if his eyesight is not very good, right?"

"Ah, yes, I found out. Why, now that things are going on, are you going to say something like 'you can't involve innocent people in order to catch him alone'?" Zhong Yuanzhong also did it as if he had eaten an overnight meal. With a disgusted expression, "Moonwatching Ringo is not here, who are you pretending to see?"

"Well, the truth that I'm actually a good person, it seems that only a smart and lovely person like Ringo can grasp it."

"Hehe." I have been standing behind him since four years ago, and watched him do everything in his power to strengthen the gangsters in Hong Kong, laying out mountains of corpses and seas of blood. You won't be able to lie for a while, I really want to see what she will think of you when she knows the truth."

However, Dazai was not affected by his words at all, but shook his head pityingly.

"So you don't understand~"

Early the next morning, Ringo met an unexpected visitor at the door of the flower shop.

"Mr. Odasaku, have you finally figured it out, are you coming to work in my shop?"

"No, I'm just here to buy flowers."

Today's Moon Watching Ringo was perfectly rejected again.

Be strong and keep smiling.

Welcoming him into the store and greeting several children, Ringo showed a perfect professional smile.

"Then what flowers do you want today?"

Oda didn't even look at the other flowers, and said, "Well, I want lotus."

This is the third time this month.

Could it be that I discovered a new hobby of Mr. Odasaku that even Dazai-san didn't know about?

"Mr. Odasaku likes lotus so much, how about planting a few in the yard?"

Over there, Dunzheng brought three budding lotus out of the warehouse, and Jinghua was already familiar with the process of cutting the wrapping paper.

"Well, plant it..." He thought for a moment and shook his head, "It still doesn't work. Ordinary lotus flowers will only bloom for two or three days. When you want to eat, you still have to come and buy them when they run out."

"...to eat?" Lin Po looked at the soft white petals of the lotus in surprise, and asked, "Mr. Odasaku bought the lotus to eat at home?"

"Well, Saku Le is researching a recipe recently, is it called lotus porridge, right? Everyone likes it very much."

"Is it really that delicious?" It's delicious enough to buy flowers for the third time this month!

"It's really delicious." Before Lingo could show his yearning expression, he added, "—with hot sauce."

Ringo: ...

"In the end, you just like spicy sauce, I see it through!"

"Really?" He thought about it seriously again, "That's probably it."

"So is the lotus porridge good?"

"I've never eaten without hot sauce..."

The conversation seems to be stuck in a vicious circle.

"So if you want to know, don't you just eat it once?" Lucy, who was arranging the flower stand at the side, couldn't see it, and interrupted, "If you want to eat it, the store manager—" I can learn how to do it.

"Oh, then I'll go back and ask Xiaole if I can bring some finished products. I just happen to pass by here tomorrow."

Lucy: ...was preempted!

"Really? I'll trouble you, Mr. Odasaku!"

Mr. Dazai must have never eaten the lotus porridge made by Oda writer, so he can give him a surprise then.

"Well. Do you want mild, medium or heavy spicy?"

Ringo was silent.

"Is there no non-spicy option?!"

The author has something to say:

Odasaku scratched his head: But without peppers, there is no soul.
