Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 357 356. From a certain perspective, this is also a celebration banquet

In fact, Feldridge was really dissatisfied, especially when she returned to the car later with great anticipation and saw the bustling restaurant.

That expression was truly a mixture of nausea, disgust, anger at being teased, and habitual dissatisfaction - and then he looked at Cypher.

I found that he was busy stirring the pot at the stove in an organized manner.

"Oh, Alfie, you're back. Perfect timing. Let me introduce you. These are the members of the Discipline Committee of your company's Women's Academy."

Ichika and the five juniors waved to her somewhat awkwardly… The younger students might not be clear, but Ichika knew that this person was a very senior executive of Abian.

Students like them will most likely work in companies after graduation and will never come into contact with such people.

"I'm not interested in these people."

"Don't be so exclusive. Think positively. Maybe they are all promising talents who can become the backbone of the company in the future."

Cypher was surprisingly patient—of course, it wasn't because she was really rich.

"I won't introduce the crew members here. These are the Yorozuya who fought with me today, and their employer, Xiaoxia."

She was waving her big sleeves, her clothes were a little dirty, and she was laughing and saying something difficult to understand like "it's just a basement", but in short, she did run out.

It took an entire afternoon, using a metal spoon and help from outside.

It is said that Uni was extremely angry about this because someone actually dug through the thick stone walls and soil of their academy that had been there for decades and escaped!

They even took away the inmate next door. This is too much!
It was a shame that unless she could catch him again, this guy would probably continue to be at large—ah of course, why didn't Ichika catch her?

It's very simple. Xiaoxia didn't do anything wrong in front of Ichika. The only problem of truancy was updated with her imprisonment. After the academy confirmed that she was still alive and well, they did not punish her.

Because she had already completed her coursework, she didn't need to take exams or study...

This guy is definitely a genius, but his brain needs correction. Even Feldrich thought so after taking a quick look at his resume.

The restaurant was filled with moist steam, and the aroma bubbling from the soup pot had already made everyone, who had not eaten much because they were looking forward to dinner, feel hungry.

Especially the four people from the Yorozuya... They spent all the money for this commission on bombs, weapons maintenance and other things. They were already penniless and didn't even have a meal for a day.

Her ability to endure hunger was first-rate. Fortunately, everyone was present, so Sefer urged her to sit down.

At this time, Tien, who hadn't seen each other for a while and seemed to have a slightly rounder face for some reason, slammed the table in dissatisfaction: "I'm starving, Captain, where's the food? Where's our food!"

"What's the rush? Are you the type who will starve to death if you don't get your meal in a few seconds?"

"Is it because the smell makes you greedy? You've been preparing for so long, but where are the noodles you promised me? Did you forget to buy them?"

As Tien, who already had an empty bottle on the table, joked, Cypher turned around and revealed the dough that had already risen, which was covered under a clean gauze.

"I said noodles, but I didn't say what kind of noodles. The flavor of noodles that are made and eaten right away is different from noodles that have been dried and made in advance."

As he spoke, Seifer had already torn off a ball of dough. Considering that the four people in the convenience house had almost no color on their faces... they must have been hungry for more than a day.

Have to make a big portion.

Stretch the dough, shaking and twisting it repeatedly.

Finally, he continued to mix it with the starch he had scooped out of the basin to reduce the chance of the noodles sticking together. In just three or five strokes, the dough was transformed into thin strands of noodles in Saifu's hands. Saifu's movements now felt more like a performance than a cooking performance.

Bringing the water to a boil, he shook off the excess flour on the noodles and threw them all into the pot. He turned around and saw everyone looking at him.

"...Oh, by the way, I asked Dr. Mei to help adjust and upgrade the beverage machine. You can just use your cups to get your drinks over there."

Next to the restaurant's freezer is an upgraded beverage machine. It's just that everyone was waiting to see where Sefer would get his staple food, so they'd overlooked it...

When the noodles in the boiling water began to tumble, Sefer scooped them out with a colander. The noodles were white and transparent, and the rising heat immediately enveloped him and the stove.

Finally, he covered the whole thing with the soup and toppings that had been cooked long ago, and then Seifer placed the bowl of steaming hot ramen in front of the Yorozuya.

The meat produced by the vision, piled up like a mountain and cut into small pieces, was shining with oil. The moment it appeared, the four people felt a little uncomfortable - they were hungry.

They all started working together, ready to enjoy it together.

"You guys can have someone try it first. I'll continue cooking later... Why are you all gathering around a bowl of noodles and eating at the same time?"

Seifer's doubts made Alu sweat, but it must be because the restaurant was a little hot, not because of guilty conscience.

You can't really say that you're living in poverty because of taking orders outside. You can't say that four people have to eat a bowl of instant rice or buy expired food!
Luckily, Seifer was just busy making ramen for other people and didn't delve into it.

Just like a live performance, this mercenary, who seemed to be best at opening people's heads with a gun or opening cans with his body, used his own actions to show everyone present a completely different side of him.

He is very attentive to the food and very friendly to the friends he invites to dinner. He even asks them if they have any dietary restrictions, how much they can eat, and if they can ask for more if it is not enough.

Leaving aside others, the four people from the Yorozuya were already busy eating, even Mutsuki, who seemed to like joking the most.

We are all growing up, and it is too hard to live without food and only drink water for a day.

Feldrich sat alone at the table in the restaurant, completely uninvolved in the noisy situation over there. She looked at everything indifferently, and even her expectations were completely shattered.

Now all that's left is dissatisfaction with Sefer and the urge to leave this environment directly.

A bowl of steaming ramen was suddenly placed in front of her, and then Seifer sat down: "Try it. To be honest, I haven't tasted it for a long, long time."

"Hmph, mercenary, don't be sentimental next to me with your appearance."

Even so, the already hungry Feldrich picked up her chopsticks. The oily broth and the seemingly sumptuous meat piled atop it didn't appeal to her at all.

The point is the so-called ramen... after all those fancy moves, could it be that the thing that is finally pulled out on the spot is really delicious?
Although he wanted to show his dissatisfaction, Feldrich still picked up a bunch of ramen and put it into his mouth mixed with the soup.

The soup is sweet and fresh, with a slight hint of chili oil as seasoning. It has a complex taste and is filled with a flavor that is not very familiar but can often be found in cars.

As for the noodles…I have to say, being fancy does work.

It had a chewy texture, and if she sucked a little harder, it seemed endlessly long, so much so that when she finally had to bite it off, her cheeks were puffed out and her expression was slightly satisfied.

...It's not quite what I imagined, but it tastes good. It's obviously made of a lump of iron, but it tastes good.

Feeling dissatisfied with the fact that Cypher was fooling her with this mechanical body, she ate a large bowl of noodles.
