I will never give in to Miss Death

This was also the main reason why Ouyang Xue decided to let Filo work here after just asking a few questions.

In fact, it doesn't matter even if Filo doesn't have the so-called "bartender experience". As a waitress, especially a maid waitress whose selling point is her appearance and figure, she has already won too much. Unless she has obvious character flaws, Ouyang Xue will never not use her.

"Hey, I thought it was a cat. When you went to the cat girl tribe before, all the kittens with owners wore similar bells."

As I watched, Philo in front of me said curiously: "They are all golden balls with a bow on them..."

"Wait a minute."

I realized something was wrong: "What did you just say?"

"The kittens in the cat girl tribe all wear similar bells."

"All like this?"

I noticed Yin Xiamo hiding behind Filo without making a sound, and asked quickly, "Does a cat girl from another world wearing this kind of bell mean that she has an owner?"

"Yeah, don't you know?"

Filo blurted out: "It's hanging around your neck. It has the owner's magic aura on it. Before, you... ahem, when the hero and Xiaomo went to the cat girl tribe, they let a calico cat recognize its master. If I remember correctly, they named the cat Meow Lulu. This thing of yours has been imprinted with Xiaomo's magic aura, similar to..."

"What?"

Yin Xiamo grabbed Fei Luo's hand and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Nuo'er, I'll take her around."

"Yin Xiamo!"

Hearing this, I finally understood why someone was trying so hard to put a bell on me, and I stood up and said, "Stop right there."

"Let's go, let's go!"

Yin Xiamo, however, ran faster than a rabbit at this moment, and ran out of the coffee shop like Filo Feng. The moment she left the house, I heard her say to the Black Dragon Girl beside her in a complaining tone: "Didn't I tell you not to mention what happened in the past..."

"..."

"Huh? Are they all gone?"

After Yin Xiamo and Fei Luo left, Lan Jiajia came down from the second floor holding a plate with a glass of grape juice and sat down opposite me. The big rabbit in her chest trembled a little: "I heard your voice a long time ago, but there is a customer on the second floor who has been asking for coffee that is not bitter. It took some time to adjust it for him."

“Not bitter coffee?”

I wondered, "Wouldn't it be possible to cover up the bitterness by adding a lot of sugar?"

“Some customers have sensitive mouths, so adding sugar doesn’t help. They need to use some condensed milk and honey.”

Lan Jiajia gestured to the grape juice she had taken off the table and said, "A customer ordered grape juice, paid, and left in a hurry. It was a large measuring cup, and I peeled a whole bunch of grapes. I can't drink it anymore. Nuoer, you finish this cup."

"Well, thank you..."

I took the cup and poked the film with the straw.

"Noer looks a little unhappy?"

Perhaps noticing the expression on my face, Lan Jiajia smiled and said, "Let me guess...are you having a quarrel with Xia Mo again?"

"She's always like that."

I said depressedly, "You like to tease me about some weird things."

"Is it this bell?"

Lan Jiajia's voice was very gentle: "It's very cute and suits you very well."

"It's not suitable!"

I subconsciously retorted: "Isn't this for kittens with owners?"

"Indeed, this can be understood in most cases, but isn't this something Xiaomo gave you?"

Lan Jiajia reached out her hand and carefully lifted the bell from my neck and examined it: "Even if it is the same thing, it has different meanings when given by different people!"

"Does it have a different meaning?"

I was puzzled: "What's the difference?"

"Aren't you and Xia Mo very close? When she gave you this gift, she must have hoped that you would be happy, right?"

Lan Jiajia propped her chin up with both hands and looked at me as I drank grape juice. "Xiao Ai gave me a strange gift before. At that time, a particularly ugly set of costumes came out in the game. The forums in the game criticized it fiercely. Almost the entire network was boycotting this new set of costumes. None of us wanted to buy them. Xiao Ai directly logged into my account and bought all the costumes in all colors. She also told me to dress uglier in my daily life, so that I wouldn't attract a lot of rivals if I dressed up beautifully to rob a caravan."

"At that time I knew Xiao Ai actually understood everything. She just wanted me to be more relaxed and happier."

At this point, Lan Jiajia raised her hand and showed me the bead bracelet with the word "Lan" engraved on it: "Actually, I think this thing is quite ugly, but Xiao Ai said it's not ugly, so I followed her lead."

you two……

For some reason, I felt a little touched. I drank the juice in the glass in one breath, ate the grape pulp, and stood up from my seat.

Lan Jiajia in front of him asked in confusion: "Where are you going? Don't you want to sit for a while? It's so sunny outside..."

"No."

I took out my phone and looked at the time.

"I'm going to the market to buy some groceries first. I'll make something she'll like tonight."

"..."

As for the dragon race, what do they generally like to eat?

On the way back, this question kept bothering me.

I even tried to interpret this problem using a scientific method - from a biological point of view, dragons are theoretically closest to lizards. If the dragons in the other world are the same as those in this world, then their diet should be similar to that of lizards.

But the question is, there are so many types of lizards, which species does the dragon belong to?

My impression is that most lizards feed on small animals, such as snails, earthworms, mice, etc., but I also have the impression that there are quite a few pure vegetarian lizards, such as the green iguana, which is a pure vegetarian and will eat all kinds of vegetable leaves and fruits.

But in addition to green iguanas and common omnivorous lizards, some lizards are pure carnivores.

For example, some monitor lizards are creatures at the top of the food chain, and in theory they should be more like dragons.

Then... should I buy more meat when I go shopping for groceries later?

The scene of being with Philo just now emerged in my mind.

Based on my experience with the dragon so far, Filo actually has quite a personality.

And her personality is a little different from what I imagined.

In my impression, the dragons in the other world should have more of a majestic image, especially since Filo is the Dragon King and has the attribute of a "black dragon". In most cases, a "black dragon" should be dark and evil, or look superior. After seeing humans, they would say, "How dare you, a tiny bug, trespass into my cave?" and then start fighting if they disagree.

However, Filo did not give me such a feeling. Although she had dragon horns on her head and vertical pupils in her "half-human" form, and exuded an aura like dragon power, which made people unconsciously want to come forward and worship her, she was not arrogant when talking to me. She treated me like a friend.

Not to mention me, Philo didn't show any arrogance towards Ouyang Xue and Su Yunjin in the coffee shop. Without knowing her true identity, Ouyang Xue and the others probably thought that she was a girl with a "great figure, pretty face and a bit of a middle school mentality" at most.

Perhaps this is because Philo often lives with humans?

After all, she herself said that she had fought alongside Yin Xiamo for hundreds and thousands of years, and had worked as a bartender for ten years in peacetime. Could this bartender be a dragon bartender? How big a wine jar would it take for a giant dragon to drink a cocktail?

Secondly, when I learned that Filo and the hero had a rather ambiguous relationship, I also wondered if this dragon had a "love brain" similar to the heroines in Galgame. For example, after meeting the hero somewhere, her face turned red and she kept calling "Ash" and then ran away. Thousands of years later, when the two met again, the heroine still remembered the hero and said that she would not marry anyone else.

Filo doesn't seem to have a similar concept of "brave Azashi".

So far, she has given me the impression of a young lady who doesn't know much about human society, is humble and polite, and speaks her mind frankly. Her personality is somewhat similar to Yin Xiamo's - of course, Filo's personality is more "straightforward" than Xiaomo. When we met for the same first time, after Xiaomo told me that I was a hero, she would only chuckle at the fact that "the hero turned into a little loli", and then did a lot of sinister things to "tease" me. Filo was much simpler, and the whole time I was like "Hahahahaha, I'm dying of laughter, hahahahaha".

Xiaomo likes to eat fish, seafood and high-protein foods. Philo has lived with her for so long, so it should be okay for me to cook according to Xiaomo's preferences, right?

"Ding-dong-"

Thinking about these messy things all the way, I soon returned to Xingxing Garden Community and took the elevator upstairs.

What I am wearing now is a pink dress that matches Xiaomo's black dress, and a pair of round-toed thick-heeled shoes with bows on my feet. This kind of little skirt is fine in places where there are many young people, such as coffee shops, but it is a little inappropriate if you go shopping for groceries.

Especially in Nannai District, the stall owners in the vegetable market are almost all old grandfathers and grandmothers. They have relatively conservative ideas and wear fancy clothes to buy vegetables. Not to mention the inconvenience, I guess I will be talked about as soon as I enter the market.

Well... speaking of Black Dragon, how about making black jelly for tonight’s dessert.

After coming out of the elevator, I took out the key and opened the door. I changed out of my pink thick-heeled shoes in the hallway, put on my slippers and went back to my room.

Phew...flat shoes are indeed the best for me.

In my room, I opened my closet, rummaged through it, and pulled out the shorts and T-shirt set.

I still have some black jelly here, which I brought from the Snail House apartment. If I remember correctly, I bought it in a supermarket on the commercial street several months ago. At that time, the white jelly and black jelly there were on sale, and you could buy a big bag for ten yuan. After I brought it back to the apartment, I only made it once or twice, and there was still a lot left.

But before this, I had made a lot of jelly and ice jelly, so I was very confident in making this kind of dessert.

Black jelly is essentially the same thing as the black jelly in the "Grass Jelly" drink. The raw materials are the same, both are something called grass jelly or jelly grass, but the production process is different. I personally feel that the "herbal" flavor of black jelly will be stronger after it is made. If it is paired with honey or brown sugar, it will taste like "herbal tea", and the "medicinal" flavor of grass jelly is not that strong.

Anyway, as the Black Dragon Princess, it would be appropriate for Filo to make some black desserts to treat her.

After changing clothes in the room, I went to the kitchen, found the bag of black jelly that still had a lot of it left, filled the kettle next to it with water and heated it up, then turned on the induction cooker, poured water into the pot, and heated both together.

Black jelly is not difficult to make. Simply put, pour the powder into water and heat it. Continue heating for a while while stirring until all the powder is dissolved. Turn off the heat and wait for it to cool down.

As long as you stir it evenly, the pot of stuff will solidify well after the water temperature cools down.

At that time, you can use a knife to cut the whole pot of jelly-like jelly into pieces, pour in honey, put it in the refrigerator, and it will become a delicious dessert.

The unique Chinese medicinal flavor of jelly and the sweetness of honey are combined together to cool down and relieve heat. You will never get tired of it no matter how much you eat in this hot summer.

The most critical part of this thing is the ratio of the jelly itself to water, which cannot be wrong at all.

If you add too much water, it will not coagulate and the whole pot of jelly will be wasted. If you add too little water, it will be uneven and the taste will be very bad, and it will taste like chewing wax. Only jelly with just the right amount of water can form a jelly-like solid state after cooling, and it is easier to cut into pieces with a knife.

"Are you back?"

Just as I was in the kitchen, boiling hot water and pouring it into a large bowl to mix the jelly according to a certain ratio, Elodie, who had just woken up, came down from the second floor yawning. She was wearing the little T-shirt of the little girl in "Eromanga Sensei", with most of her snow-white shoulders loosely exposed: "What time is it?"

"It should be around three o'clock."

I took out my phone to check: "Three-thirty."

"You're the one cooking today..."

Elodie looked at the black thing in my hand and said, "Is this grass jelly?"

"It can also be considered as burning grass jelly."

I turned around and said, "By the way, Sister Elodie, can one more person stay here?"

"One more person?"

Elodie looked confused: "Do you have any friends coming?"

"Well, didn't you say before that the coffee shop was short of people? I have a friend who wants to go to work, and she doesn't have a house here either, and Xiaomo knows her."

"You know Xiaomo too? That's rare."

Elodie opened the refrigerator in the kitchen and took out a can of soda: "Girl?"

"Sure."

I was a little embarrassed: "Twenty...twenty-six-year-old sister."

"Sure, the rent is only that much each month, so you can divide it among yourselves."

After opening the can of soda with a click and taking a big sip of Coke, Elodie was obviously in better spirits: "Live in the utility room?"

"Live in Xiaomo's room, and Xiaomo will sleep with me."

"Oh."

Elodie showed an expression as if she had heard a little secret: "Sleeping together... has your relationship reached this point?"

"Uh……"

"It's pretty good. Jia Jia is pretty good too."

Then Elodie said something that shocked me for a hundred years without blushing: "She also likes to sleep in my bed at night, saying that my bed is more comfortable than hers, and she even wears my pajamas."

What about your relationship...

"Why are you looking at me like this?"

Perhaps sensing my gaze, Elodie turned her face away: "I told you, I'm not a lesbian, I just have a good relationship with that jerk."

I nodded quickly: "I know, I know."

"Since you are Xiaomo's friend, I won't ask any more questions. You can arrange the three rooms on the first floor by yourselves. As usual, don't make too much noise during the day and pay attention to hygiene."
