Shirou Emiya stands on the Terra continent

After smelling a hint of sweetness, Archangel Exiah quickly found the source of the sweetness. Looking at the pile of desserts that Emiya placed on the table, Archangel Exiah felt what happiness was.

She was a Lateran, and a Sakota.

You should know that in Lateran you can get a colorful marshmallow by walking around the road with a wooden stick. This shows how much the people of Lateran pursue desserts.

Moreover, she is a Sakhota. A qualified Sakhota can make at least twenty kinds of desserts, and even the meals at major banquets are desserts.

Although she is an outlier who particularly loves apple pie, it does not prevent her from having a pure Rutland bloodline!

She knew by smell that the desserts on the table were from that super famous store in Dagu Shopping District!

That shop was expensive, and she would have to use a lot of apple pie money to buy such a big table.

"Emiya, what are you doing...?"

Sora swallowed her saliva as she looked at the table full of desserts. There were cookies, chocolates, macarons, small cakes, apple pies... Not to mention her and Exia who had a deep obsession with desserts, even Texas and Croissant beside them were stunned by the whole table.

"Uh... I originally wanted to buy some desserts to ask something, but I accidentally bought a lot."

Looking at the reactions of several people, Emiya knew that he had bought a little too much. He originally wanted to buy a few small cakes, but later under the promotion of the service staff, he bought a little more.

Then there are these on the table.

"You're not just slipping, are you?"

Texas complained.

"You bought so much so you're not asking questions, you're trying to pursue someone, right? Emiya, just tell me who you want to pursue, there's no need to make it so complicated."

Croissant at the side took out his mobile phone and started taking pictures as if it was a matter of course. Such a grand occasion of a large table of desserts is very rare, and since it comes from a famous store, the appearance of the desserts is also very delicate and cute.

Seeing Croissant start taking pictures, Exia and Sora beside him also took out their phones and started taking pictures.

Texas was not so enthusiastic about this kind of thing. She just made a cheering gesture to Emiya, took a chocolate cake and sat on the sofa.

"…I just really want to ask something." Emiya said helplessly: "I just want to ask Croissant where you usually go to buy goods, and what should I pay attention to when buying and selling things."

"Hmm? Emiya, you're also interested in setting up a stall?"

When Croissant heard that Emiya wanted to learn some business experience from him, he was no longer sleepy.

It is a happy thing that your hobbies are recognized by others!

"No, it's just that someone I know is planning to open a store."

Emiya did not tell anyone at Penguin Logistics about what he was going to do, mainly because it was meaningless, and secondly, the people at Penguin Logistics were very easy to be targeted in the slums, and he did not want to cause trouble for everyone.

The advice Jie gave himself was to remember to put on a hooded coat if he went outside next time, and to cover his appearance as much as possible when outside, which could save him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"My friend... Emiya, you are a social phobia, right?"

Croissant complained. She remembered that Emiya had only been in Longmen for about a month and a half, almost two months. How could he have known someone so soon?

And he is the kind of person who will come to ask questions.

"What are you thinking about? We just met while chatting while buying groceries."

Listening to Croissant's words, Emiya could roughly guess what Croissant was thinking. Emiya felt that if he hung out with the people from Penguin Logistics for a while longer, maybe they could communicate with each other through eye contact.

"Well... okay, since you are sincere, Emiya, I will share some with you. But the other party shouldn't be setting up a stall, right?"

Croissant said it reluctantly, but in order to avoid losing business to her peers in the future, she still asked.

"I already said I'm opening a store, but it's in the slums. I won't steal your business."

Emiya knew what Croissant was worried about and emphasized it.

"Tsk, is there a winner in the shop?"

After confirming that they were not in the same business as each other and expressing his envy for a bit, Croissant sorted out some of his business experiences and shared them with Emiya.

"Hiss... How long do you think Emiya's friend can last?"

Looking at Croissant sharing everything he knew, Archangel Nero on the side complained.

Emiya was also confused, why would he go to ask Croissant for advice?

"Croissant just has a bad taste, there's nothing wrong with him in other aspects."

Texas said as he was eating chocolate cake.

"What I'm more worried about is whether Emiya's perspective will be assimilated by Croissant..."

Compared to Angelica who was just watching the fun and Texas who was too immersed in the delicious food to think, Sora was a little more worried and even felt that the dessert in his hand didn't smell that good anymore.

"..."

After learning about Kong's worries, both Exia and Texas realized the seriousness of the matter.

If Emiya's perspective is really assimilated by Croissant, then there will be a real problem!

You have to know that most of the daily necessities that Croissant bought with that bad taste are not usable by humans!

The three of them recognized each other with their eyes and communicated successfully in an instant.

I have to have a good talk with Emiya later, don't let him and Croissant learn bad things!

When the three of them had successfully communicated with each other through eye contact, Croissant also briefly explained some precautions to Emiya.

What should I pay attention to when purchasing goods, how to store goods, how to target customers...

Although these are very basic, they are very useful to Emiya.

"That's about all about the business side of things. As for the products, I can recommend some... woooooo!"

After finishing one paragraph, Croissant was about to start the second topic, but three people from Penguin Logistics rushed over and covered his mouth.

"That's it."

Texas said as he held the right half of Croissant's body.

"Hey, hey! STOP! Let's not talk about the products. You don't want your friend's store to go bankrupt, do you, Emiya?"

Said the Archangel who was holding the left half of Croissant's body.

As for Sora? She was trying hard to cover Croissant's mouth.

"Hmm? Ah! Oh, okay."

Emiya, who hadn't reacted yet, looked at the three people's strange expressions, and then he remembered Croissant's pile of strange and eccentric products.

I almost got caught in it, but luckily the three of them stopped Croissant.

"You guys are going too far!"

After breaking free from the three people, Croissant pointed at everyone and spoke loudly.

"Croissant, even though it hurts to say this, please have some self-awareness, okay?"

Exia patted Croissant's shoulder earnestly and said.

"I suspect you are bullying me, Croissant!"

"Just telling the truth."

"This is too much of a bully!"

Looking at Exia, Texas and Croissant pointing at and cursing at each other, Emiya felt tired.

On the other side, Kong withdrew from the battlefield early, returned to the table and quietly cleaned up the desserts on the table.

Penguin Logistics is always like this, just get used to it.

"Oh... Never mind, just don't tell me. You will lose me if you do this, do you know?"

After arguing for a while, Croissant felt a little tired. She had indeed talked a lot to Emiya, while Texas and Exia had eaten dessert to replenish their energy.

Croissant felt that his brain was not enough and needed a little bit of sugar to replenish it, so he went to Emiya and Sora to get a dessert.

"Eat quickly. I saved some for you."

Emiya did not forget that these desserts were used as tuition for Croissant.

"Wow... Emiya you're such a nice person, completely different from Nou-nee and the others."

Looking at the dessert that Emiya had saved for him, Croissant felt the care from his teammates.

Look! This is a good teammate! She was almost moved to tears.

"too exaggerated."

Exia sat down and enjoyed the remaining apple pie, while complaining about Croissant's exaggerated acting skills.

Texas on the other side also found a seat to sit, but she didn't touch the dessert. Although she liked chocolate and coffee very much, she still controlled the amount she consumed.

But Pocky is an exception, that is her lifeline.

Sitting down and drinking a cup of coffee, Texas remembered that he had to inform everyone about something, so he took out his phone and said, "I have something to inform you about. ISIS has found out the identity of the person who attacked us a few days ago."

It wasn't a big deal, it was just that the identities of the people who suddenly attacked them a few days ago have been found out.

The reason why it is not a big deal is very simple.

After all, there are so many enemies in Penguin Logistics. The best you can do if you know their identities is to blow them up directly when you see them later... ahem, avoid them.

"Hmm... is it another logistics company? Are they planning to steal our Penguin Logistics business?"

Looking at the information from Isis on Texas's mobile phone, Archangel felt that things were a bit troublesome.

If they are just trying to steal goods, it might be okay to just beat them up, but if they are trying to steal business, it would be really dangerous.

But think about it, the other party would chase them directly on the street and use lethal spells and crossbows, originally aiming to kill them.

"Is there no way to inform the Guards?"

Emiya, the newbie at Penguin Logistics, asked as he looked at the information on his phone from a distance.

His logic is very simple. If there is a problem, he will report it to the Guard Bureau and let the people in the Guard Bureau handle it.

"The acquisition of this information is considered an illegal channel, and most of it is still speculation. The Imperial Guard Bureau will not accept it, at least in public, there is no way to take direct action."

Texas gave a brief explanation. There are many rules, both explicit and implicit, and it is easy to get confused if you are not careful.

Anyway, Penguin Logistics doesn't have to worry about these things. They do abide by Longmen's rules to a certain extent.

"I see. It was a gas explosion."

When Emiya heard Dexa mention the light side and the dark side, he understood the general meaning.

He is familiar with this. No matter what happens, he will use the gas explosion as a shield.

“Why was it a gas explosion?”

Exia couldn't understand Emiya's way of thinking, and began to think deeply about whether the people at Penguin Logistics had led Emiya astray.

"Ah! That's the code word from my side."

Emiya evaded the question, saying that he had just blurted it out without paying attention.

"What a weird codeword... even weirder than Sister Neng's Apurupai."

"What do you think of my apple pie?"

Croissant complained, then received a tickle attack from Archangel.

Ignoring the two people playing around, Texas and Sora briefly explained the situation to Emiya. After all, this was the first time Emiya had encountered such a situation.

"Don't be too nervous when encountering this kind of situation. Is sent a message just to explain the situation. They should have been dealing with it. We just need to be a little careful for the time being and everything will be fine."

Although he knew that Emiya was a good fighter, Sora was still very careful and cautious in telling Emiya how to respond.

Both professionally and privately, she doesn't want Emiya to have any accidents. Of course, it's not just Emiya. Sora hopes that everyone at Penguin Logistics can continue to spend every day happily like they do now.

However, even Kong herself knew that this idea was extremely naive, but it did not stop her from working hard in this direction.

"But if you really encounter a crisis, it's okay to take action directly. Prioritize your own safety and don't make things too serious. The boss can handle it."

Texas reminded Emiya.

Of course, what Texas meant by attacking was to kill the opponent. After all, it is difficult to hold back when one's life is threatened.

"I understand."

Emiya understood what Texas meant, but he had plenty of ways to escape, so it didn't matter.

"Yeah... I understand."

Looking at Emiya's expression, Texas doubted whether Emiya understood what she meant, but since he had said it clearly, she didn't continue.
