[One Piece] Brother Ace, please pay the bill

~~~~~ Twinkle, twinkle, sparkle, head full of little stars~~~~~

"Grab my arm!" William yelled, he couldn't pull the child out of the wind hole with one hand, so he had to let go of the hand that was holding the mandala's waist.

"Ah..., um..." Mandala wanted to answer, but when she opened her mouth, something bumped into her mouth and almost swallowed it, so she had to close her lips tightly again.

"Okay, miss, we're going home." William had already carried the child on the other shoulder, he roared, kicked off the wall, and descended to the street.

The sea breeze is salty, the sea water is cold, and fish, shrimp, and crabs are smashed in the face, and the mandala is about to spit out.This kind of jumping up and down is much more tormenting than a pirate ship.

"Hold on, Miss Mandala, we're almost here." William seemed to feel Mandala's discomfort, and he comforted her.

"Yeah." Mandala pursed her lips and nodded. She turned her head to look at the situation of the child before, but she could only see her bare feet.

And above her ankle, she wore a thin gold chain.On the chain hangs a charm that appears to be a conch shell.

Where did this child come from?

Before Mandala found any clues, William carried the two to KILALALA.

"Miss Mandala, Chef William, you are finally back! Look at the wind and rain, everyone is worried about the situation at home, so go back first. My family has gone on a trip, so I will stay here temporarily to guard the shop. If you don't come back, I'm going to find the guards for help."

The hall on the second floor of KILALALA was pitch black, but a small candle was lit at the counter.Many waiters in the restaurant asked for leave and left because of the storm. Because Mandala was not there, the male waiter who woke her up took the initiative to stay and inform Mandala about the situation.

"Okay, Ram, I see." Mandala nodded, she glanced at the male waiter's badge and finally remembered his name, "Let's stay here tonight, you go first After you boil the pot of water and give the boy a bath, we'll have dinner."

After Mandala finished speaking, she hugged the blond girl from William, and she turned around and went upstairs.

Putting the child on her childish bed, Mandala walked into the bathroom, planning to wipe her body with a towel first.But she suddenly saw in the mirror that her wardrobe door seemed to move slightly.

Although the wind outside is very strong, it is still not enough to blow the wardrobe in the room.Obviously, someone hid it in the closet.

Mandala pretended not to see it. She picked up the towel with one hand, opened the drawer of the bathroom cabinet with the other, and found a razor inside.Putting the towel on the hand holding the razor, Mandala walked out of the bathroom slowly.

Not knowing who was hiding in the closet, maybe it was not a person, Mandala was a little flustered.

Walking to the bed, Mandala sat down.Although her back was facing the closet, she could still see the closet out of the corner of her eye.

Just like that, the situation got a little tricky.

Mandala was a little upset, she knew that the person must be waiting for her to go out or disappear.Turning his head, Mandala looked at the girl on the bed.

With just one glance, Mandala's eyes were drawn.Not attracted, but captured, unable to move.

Yes, this child is quite beautiful.Although the fluffy and soft blonde hair is completely wet, the beautiful color can still be seen.A round face is white and tender, like freshly steamed white bread.Water droplets hung on the long eyelashes, trembling slightly with her breathing.

Fortunately, her eyes are closed now, otherwise Mandala felt that she would definitely be lured into a beast.

Mandala reached out, wanting to touch her smooth little face.

"Crack."

Suddenly there was a very slight but crisp sound from behind.

Mandala knew that it was the sound made by the touch of a dress studded with crystal beads in the closet.

The person who hid really couldn't hold his breath.

Mandala didn't move, she just withdrew her hand, and then clenched the razor in her hand.

"Ah!" The idiot in the closet not only touched his crystal skirt, but also scratched his nose by a feather-decorated dress.

There is no need to continue pretending, Mandala raised the razor in his hand and shouted, "William, Ram, come up quickly, I have a pervert here!"

"Miss Mandala!" The two people who were still boiling water downstairs hurried up, they broke open the door and entered the house.

"Where is the pervert?" Ram held a piece of firewood in his hand, while William held a boning knife in his hand.

"In the closet." Mandala gained confidence in an instant, she raised her hand and pointed straight ahead.

"It's a stupid thief who wants to take advantage of the storm to rob." William said disdainfully, he took a knife, deliberately stepped on extremely heavy steps, and walked to the wardrobe.

"We are not perverts, we just ate a king's meal!" The person in the closet was really frightened, opened the closet door abruptly, and rolled out from inside.

To Mandala's surprise, there was not one person hidden in the closet, but two people.And these two people happen to be Luffy and Ace.

"Where did the stinky brat come from?" Seeing that they were two children, Ram was no longer afraid.He walked up to the two of them and raised the firewood to strike.

"Stop, Ram." Mandala quickly stopped him. She wasn't afraid that Ace and the others would get hurt, but she was afraid that Ram would be beaten to death by Ace and Luffy.

"Eh?" Lahm didn't understand, he blinked his eyes with a confused expression.

"They can be regarded as our KILALALA's guests. Although they didn't pay, they should be able to wash the dishes to pay off the debt." Mandala smiled brightly. Her reason was very legitimate, so that people would not see through it as a result of animal nature.

"Then can I have another ten plates of seafood fried rice tonight?" Luffy pouted, completely unaware of his current situation.

"Luffy!" Ace slapped the back of Luffy's head with his palm, knocking him to the ground, "Do you want to wash dishes here all your life?"

"No, I want to become Kai..." Lu Fei rubbed the back of his swollen head and got up from the ground again.

"Let's go wash the dishes right away!" Ace quickly covered Luffy's mouth, and dragged him to the door.

"Wait!" Mandala stretched out his hand and grabbed Ace's collar, "I haven't eaten yet, where is there a bowl. You wait here for me, don't run away."

Seeing that his trick was seen through, Ace had no choice but to stop. He and Luffy stood obediently by the wall, bowed their heads, as if they were repenting.

"Ram, when the hot water is ready, you bring it up first, and then help William make dinner. After I take care of the girl, I will come down." Mandala rolled up his sleeves, ready to give the girl Wipe yourself.

"Both of you, stand with your backs to the wall." Mandala reminded again that he felt like he was going to become Ace's mother, "Even if you want to run, at least wait until the storm has passed."

Ace and Luffy turned around obediently, facing the wall.He originally planned to stun Mandala and escape immediately after William left, but he gave up this plan after hearing Mandala's second sentence.

If you go out now, you will really die.

Moreover, if you stay, it seems that you can eat seafood fried rice.

That long-winded woman doesn't look bad either.

Ace turned his head and took a sneaky look at Mandala.But he saw Mandala undressing the blond girl, and the snow-white arm blinded his eyes.

Blushing, Ace quickly turned his head and faced the light blue wall again.

"Brother, are you hungry?" Seeing Ace's flushed face, Lu Fei thought he was angry with hunger.

"No, Luffy. I haven't finished digesting what I ate at noon." Ace touched Luffy's small head and rubbed his messy black hair.

"But, brother, I'm hungry." Lu Fei curled his lips, touching his sunken belly, feeling very aggrieved.

"Be patient." Ace turned his head away again, this time, it was Mandala who took off his clothes.

After changing the girl into a clean pajamas, Mandala took off the sticky skirt on her body.Because there was still a petticoat inside, Mandala didn't feel anything.

It's not that she doesn't wear clothes with less fabric in the real world, and Ace and Luffy are still young, so she doesn't care.

Putting on a simple dress from the closet, Mandala turned and walked towards Ace and Luffy.

"Let's go, it's almost dinner time." Mandala patted Ace on the shoulder, then pinched Luffy's face, then lifted his foot and walked out the door.

"The feel of rubber is really good." Mandala rubbed his index finger and thumb, the silky touch of Luffy's skin still remained on it.

"Hey, big sister, can we have seafood fried rice tonight?" Luffy felt that he was being eaten tofu at all, he grinned innocently.

"I'm not the eldest sister!" Mandala turned her head and looked at Luffy with a serious face.

Well, she is already in her 20s in the real world, but this body looks obviously older than Luffy and younger than Ace.

Who can bear the rustic title of "big sister"!

"Luffy, Miss Mandala." Ace had remembered Mandala's name just now, and he patted Luffy on the head to ask him to greet him again.

"Miss Mandala, do you have seafood fried rice tonight?" Luffy was so focused on eating, his stomach growled, oscillating back and forth in the stairwell with the crisp child's voice.

"Yes, of course." Mandala smiled, "This storm has brought a lot of seafood."

William threw away the seafood he bought in the market before. If he really wanted to eat paella, it must be the ingredients he picked up outside.

"Miss Mandala, you have stars all over your head." Ace who walked behind Mandala said suddenly.

"Really, does my hair twinkle?" Mandala thought that Ace was boasting about his beautiful hair, but because he was still young, the metaphor was a bit inappropriate.

"No." Ace shook his head. He stretched out his hand and grabbed a little blue starfish from Mandala's hair. "You have this all over your head, Miss Mandala."
