Fight the monsters before 8 am

The proprietress said this, then stood up and took various things from the tray and placed them on the table.

In addition to the basket of bread in the middle of the table, there was a round plate and a cup in front of Xingheyue and Rukia. The round plate contained bacon, sausage and fried eggs, and the cup was filled with milk, but the cup was a beer cup with a handle. It was a bit strange to drink milk with such a big beer cup.

"You're welcome, just eat quickly. If you don't find your favorite bread among these, just look around the store and see what else you want to eat and go get it directly," said the store owner.

"Thank you very much. I would also like to ask, which bread here is the new product that we need to try?" Xing Heyue asked.

"New product?"

The shop owner was stunned for a moment. He glanced at his wife and found that she was winking at him secretly. He quickly figured out his wife's intention.

So he said to Xing and Yue, "Oh, yes, yes, there are new products that need to be tasted. They are still in the kitchen and have not been served yet. Please wait a moment."

After saying that, the shop owner returned to the kitchen. When he came out again, he was holding a plate with several sandwiches on it.

"Okay, this is a new product that hasn't been put on the shelves yet. Come and try it." said the proprietress.

"Then I won't be polite."

Xing and Yue picked up a fork and poked a piece of meat.

"I'm gonna start now."

Rukia also picked up a piece with a fork and moved it to her plate.

Before eating, Xing and Yue asked, "What is this new product called?"

"Well... yes, we haven't chosen a name yet, how about calling it Little Blue Flower?" said the proprietress.

Although Xing Heyue had not tasted the sandwich yet, he could tell that the store manager was not good at naming.

The lady boss continued to introduce the new sandwich: "This is a blueberry jam and peanut butter sandwich that my friend and regular customer specifically requested. She said this is what her sister likes to eat. She can't see her sister for a while now, so she wants to try the flavor that her sister likes.

But my husband and I both felt that adding only blueberry jam and peanut butter was too monotonous, so we improved it a bit. You two should be the first two customers of this sandwich. Even my friend hasn’t tried it yet.”

Upon hearing what the proprietress said, Xing, Yue and Rukia's faces immediately became serious and they looked at the sandwiches on their plates seriously, as if what they were going to do next was not eating but fighting.

“Hahaha, you two little ones don’t have to be so nervous,” the proprietress waved her hand and said with a smile, “Just eat normally and try it to see if it suits your taste.”

After saying that, the proprietress also picked up a sandwich, opened her little mouth and gently bit off a small piece. She put her hand to cover her mouth and chewed slowly.

"Hmm... blueberry jam mixed with peanut butter still feels a little weird. Obviously, both of them are very delicious when eaten alone, but it's so weird when mixed together." The lady boss commented, "It seems that we can't easily put it on the shelf for sale, but we can give it to that guy to try."

During the meal, the proprietress chatted with Xing, Yue and Rukia.

Maybe because the three of them were speaking Neon language, the shop owner didn't say anything and spent most of the time just smiling at his wife.

The shop owner and his wife did not stay with Xing, Yue and Rukia to finish the meal. Halfway through the meal, a customer came to the store to buy something, and the shop owner and his wife went to greet the customer.

Xing, Yue and Rukia finished their meal and were about to leave after thanking the proprietress, but were stopped by her.

"Don't leave in a hurry."

The proprietress pulled Rukia upstairs in a hurry. She was going to find clothes for Rukia.

The shop owner also went into the kitchen and after a while came out with a big bag full of bread and other snacks.

"These are defective products that need to be disposed of. They just don't look good, but they taste the same as the products on the shelves. Please don't dislike them. My wife and I can't finish so much, so I'll ask A Xingni to deal with it." The shop owner handed the bag to Xing and Yue.

"Thank you very much." Xing Heyue didn't know how many times she had said thank you today. She was really grateful for the couple's care.

Although the store owner said that these breads and snacks were defective products that needed to be disposed of, when you look at them, they are basically no different from normal goods.

"The snacks like biscuits in there can be kept for a little longer, but the bread should be eaten as soon as possible, no later than tomorrow noon. Put it directly in the refrigerator when you get home." The shop owner continued to instruct.

At this time, the proprietress also led Lukia down. Rukia had changed her clothes and was wearing a lavender dress with a small white jacket on the upper body and khaki women's flat sandals on her feet.

This dress seems to fit Rukia very well, which makes Xing and Yue feel a little strange. The proprietress is a foreigner and her figure is completely different from Rukia's.

But before the meal, the proprietress said that she wanted to give some of her old clothes to Rukia, but the clothes Rukia was wearing didn't look like something the proprietress could wear.

The proprietress was holding a large suitcase in her hand. She handed the suitcase to Rukia only after they went down the stairs.

She said to Xing and Yue, "I feel more and more that you two are runaways from home. You have nothing and are not prepared for anything. If you encounter any problems in the future, remember to come to me and my husband."

After she finished talking to Xing and Yue, the lady boss leaned over to Rukia's ear and whispered in a voice that no one else could hear: "When you run out of the things I prepared for you, come to me directly. Don't read the popular science on the Internet and buy them blindly. Little girls of your age cannot be left unprotected."

Rukia's face was a little red when she came down the stairs, and now when she heard the boss's words, her little face became even redder.

"Hmm..." Rukia hummed softly in a voice as thin as a mosquito and nodded to indicate that she understood.

After that, Xing, Yue and Rukia left the Sunflower Bakery.

Chapter 29: Rukia's Physical Problem

The shop owner and his wife stood at the door and watched the two little guys leave.

"Looking at the two of them, I remembered when we first arrived in this city. So much time has passed in the blink of an eye." The proprietress said while leaning against the door.

"Yes, a year has passed in the blink of an eye." The shop owner nodded.

After a moment's silence, the proprietress reached out to tuck the windblown hair behind her ears and said, "Now that the store is stable... Dear, I want a child, preferably a boy and a girl."

"I...I tried my best." The shop owner scratched his head with a silly smile on his face, he was so happy that he couldn't contain himself.

"You're so silly." The proprietress looked at the shop owner and said helplessly and amusedly.

Then she looked at the backs of Xingheyue and Rukia leaving and said, "Where did these two little guys come from?"

As for Xingheyue and Rukia, Xingheyue originally wanted to take the box from Rukia, after all, the box looked quite big.

But Rukia did not let go. She felt that Xing and Yue did not need help with this matter.

"Are you okay?" Xingheyue asked Rukia.

After coming out of the Sunflower Bakery, the blush on Rukia's face had not faded.

Xing Heyue guessed that Rukia's current appearance was related to what the proprietress whispered to Rukia before she left, but Xing Heyue didn't hear what the proprietress said, and he didn't intend to ask now, but he was a little worried about Rukia.

The sleepiness Rukia showed this morning made him worry that there might be something wrong with her body.

Of course, it's also possible that he's just too sensitive.

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm fine. Stop imagining nonsense." Rukia said with a red face and pouting.

If Xing Heyue were the kind of people with ulterior motives or were bad friends who deliberately made fun of her, Rukia could still say a few words to them, but Xing Heyue was just simply concerned about her, and that was too much for Rukia to handle.

Just as Xing and Yue worried, Rukia's body had indeed undergone significant changes, but it was not known whether these changes were good or bad.

No matter how much Rukia looks like a human, she is still different from ordinary people. As a god of death, her body is composed of spirit particles.

And now, her body really seemed to be gradually transforming into that of an ordinary human girl in junior high or high school.

Even some of the physical characteristics and manifestations that ordinary human girls of this age would encounter began to appear in Rukia.

Rukia blushed and glanced at the suitcase she was dragging, then sighed with a mixture of half distress, half shyness and a hint of helplessness.

"Ugh..."

"what happened?"

"fine!"

After returning to the apartment, Rukia went back to her room and took a shower. The warm water spraying from the shower head made her feel a little better.

But the degree of goodness is limited.

After taking a shower and changing into pajamas, Rukia began to pack the large suitcase given to her by the landlady.

The box was stuffed full. In addition to Rukia's old clothes and the new clothes prepared for her by the landlady, there were also many daily necessities that women needed.

Xing and Yue don't know much about these daily necessities.

In fact, Rukia didn't quite understand. She almost forgot how she lived when she was a human. She even suspected that she had appeared in Rukongai as soon as she was born and had never experienced human life at all.

She can no longer remember many things from the past.

Therefore, if Xing, Yue and Rukia were asked to prepare these items, the result would probably be that they would spend a lot of money but still make a mess.

Sort out the clothes and put them into your own closet, find a place to put away the daily necessities, and finally wash the clothes you have taken off.

After doing all this, Rukia walked out of her room and came to the common room.

Xing and Yue have already put on aprons and seem to be preparing lunch.

Seeing Rukia come in, Xing and Yue asked, "Baozi or dumplings?"

Rukia was still thinking about her own body, and when Xing Heyue suddenly asked her such a random question, she was confused for a moment.

Seeing Rukia standing there in a daze with a puzzled look on her face, Xing Heyue continued to explain: "I'm going to get some meat filling and want to make some buns or dumplings for breakfast and dinner in the future. Which one do you want to eat? If you want buns, I'll make the dough rise now."

Lucia thought for a while and said, "Although steamed buns are delicious, I have eaten them these two days. I want to eat dumplings. Is that okay?"

"No problem, just stay home and wait for me to come back. Don't worry about lunch, I've already stewed the vegetables and steamed the rice."

Xing and Yue took off their aprons, took the things they had prepared and left the apartment.

Nothing happened along the way. Xing and Yue went to the butcher's shop on the shopping street and asked the owner to help them make the minced meat. Then they returned to the apartment.

The vegetables are still stewing in the pot and the rice is still steaming in the rice cooker.

Now that they have nothing to do, Xing and Yue start preparing to make the dough.

“Hehehe~ Dumplings, dumplings, dumplings, dumplings~~~”

Rukia sat on the sofa, humming a meaningless song.

Xing and Yue guessed that she made up this song on the spot, and she probably wouldn't be able to sing it again.

"Do you need my help?" Rukia asked.

"No need, I can do it alone." Xing Heyue said.

Suddenly, Xingheyue said again: "Lukia, I don't think I can cook for you tonight. Can we just eat bread?"

"Of course it's no problem. This is bread. Do you think bread is something hard to swallow?" Lucia said, and then asked, "Are you going somewhere tonight?"

"Well, I'm going out in the afternoon and probably won't be back until very late." Xing Heyue said.

Xing Heyue saw a message about recruiting temporary workers in the errand running group, and he also signed up.

The person who posted the message assigned Xingheyue a job of working in a barbecue restaurant from 4pm to 3am today, and their wages would be paid on the same day.

"I see..." Rukia didn't ask what Xing and Yue were doing, but just reminded them, "Your current ability will often go out of control, so be careful outside. If you encounter anything you can't handle, contact me in time. By the way, take the Hell Butterfly with you as well."

Rukia actually knew that she couldn't be of any help in her current situation, but if Xing and Yue really needed her, she would do her best.

After she finished speaking, she turned around and looked for the Hell Butterfly, only to see a Hell Butterfly lying in a small dish and sucking honey water.

The other hell butterfly that often disappeared without a trace disappeared again as expected.

Chapter 30 If there really was a video of Ultraman making dumplings, I could watch it all day

After searching for a long time without finding the escaped Hell Butterfly, Rukia had no choice but to step forward and pick up the Hell Butterfly that was sipping the honey water.

"You will accompany He Yue on a trip this afternoon. Come back and let me know if anything happens." Rukia said to the Hell Butterfly in her hand.

This hell butterfly looks like an employee who was forced to work by his boss during his break, exuding an aura of resistance.

The Hell Butterfly bred by Soul Society is quite cute, although this cute appearance is just accidental and cuteness was not considered a breeding goal when it was first bred.

It's hard to describe the cuteness of Butterfree's appearance, but it can be said that if Butterfree's size was enlarged and thrown into the world of "Pokémon", it wouldn't be out of place at all.

Now such a cute Hell Butterfly has been captured by Rukia. She looks actually quite pitiful with big watery eyes.

"Don't give me that... No, where on earth did you learn that?" Rukia pinched the wings of the Hell Butterfly and moved closer to her. "Since you came here, you've either been eating or sleeping. You haven't worked at all. Now I'm asking you to go out with Kazuki. What's wrong?"

Facing his boss, Jigokucho did not dare to resist. He had only been here for a few days, and before that he had been working overtime every day in Soul Society.

"Besides, you probably won't have much to do if you follow He Yue. It's not like you're tracking down a Hollow. Besides, if you use this cute trick on He Yue, he might just feed you."

Hearing what Rukia said, Hell Butterfly immediately became interested and was no longer as listless as before.

"Well...I'm still here." Xing Heyue said helplessly.

"Haha, don't worry about it." Rukia said carelessly, "Here, take this guy with you."

As he said that, he handed the Hell Butterfly in his hand to Xing and Yue.

"Don't worry, I won't go there until the afternoon, so we can let it rest for a while." Xing Heyue said.

"You're lucky, but don't run around." Rukia said to the Hell Butterfly again, then put it back on the plate and let it continue sucking the honey.

Xing and Yue have already prepared the dough. They roll it into long strips and cut it into small balls with a knife.

Then roll these small balls into dumpling skins one by one, and then you can officially start making them.
