Rhode Island Park Project

The restaurant that Miss Bagpipe chose this time was actually quite high-end. After all, it was located on the upper floors of the hotel, and the night view of the city was right outside the window. Just by looking at the view, you could tell that the price would definitely not be cheap.

For the date tonight, Bagpipe, who is usually very frugal, spent quite a lot of money.

But from another perspective, it is also possible that Bagpipe wanted to repay the captain who took care of him, so the combination of these two things made it so luxurious.

In any case, the waiter who walked into the private room was obviously very well-educated. He kept his eyes down while holding the dishes and never looked at the people in the room from beginning to end.

After a few trips back and forth to the cart outside the door, the waiter bowed slightly and left the room.

Luo Hang, who was sitting in the room, looked at the standard four dishes and one soup on the table, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Who did you learn this from?"

"Uh, it was Fengdi who asked Miss Chen Huijie..."

The expression on Horn's face when he said this was a little strange.

That Miss Chen seemed to have a pretty good relationship with the Doctor, but now Bagpipe is like this again, their relationship is in turmoil...

Luo Hang smiled and shook his head.

“That’s a pretty standard answer.”

"Um, Doctor..."

"Ok?"

He looked at Horn who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

The other party looked at him and lowered his gaze: "Your hand..."

"what,"

He raised his hand suddenly, "I forgot everything."

“Cough, cough, cough, cough—!”

The sound of Bagpipe coughing violently was heard in the room, and Horn finally saw Bagpipe, who had been playing the disappearing game, raised his face.

"Cough, gulp, I almost suffocated to death!"

The sound of the bagpipes was as hoarse as a bad cold.

Horn sighed helplessly.

"How about we eat first?"

To be honest, she still hasn't figured out the situation.

Although she did think that Fengpi was a good teammate, wasn't this too much of an outsider? Wasn't this like she didn't even exist?

"Ah, uh-huh, Captain, you and the Doctor can eat first. I'll be done in a minute! It would be too much for the Doctor if we stopped now."

Bagpipe cleared his throat, gave her a relaxed and hearty smile, and then lowered his head again, looking very motivated.

horn:"……"

Obviously, the way Fengpi spoke to her was almost the same as usual, but at this moment she felt extremely out of place, as if she had arrived in another world without knowing when.

What was happening before my eyes seemed familiar, yet completely incomprehensible.

"It's okay, let's eat first."

Luo Hang smiled and said, "I'll try my best to control the time and won't delay it for too long."

"Okay, okay..."

Horn has kind of given up on thinking.

She numbly picked up the chopsticks she had never touched before, and only with Luo Hang's guidance did she clumsily pick up the first piece of dish that belonged to her.

The exotic delicacies made her feel a little more relaxed, and she continued to chat with the doctor while eating.

A little over ten minutes later, Bagpipe suddenly stood up from under the table, covered his mouth and ran out of the house.

After a while, Feng Di, who seemed to have washed his face, came back with the same sunny smile as usual and two small porcelain plates, saying that they were special dipping dishes for Da Yan cuisine.

One of the dishes was poured into her rice by Bagpipe with excessive enthusiasm even after she politely declined. For the other dish, she watched Bagpipe humming a tune while she filled her own bowl of rice and poured the dish into her rice. Then she happily sat next to the doctor, fiddling with her chopsticks and putting the rice and dishes into her mouth together.

It’s really helpless...

As she thought about this, she continued to stuff a mouthful of rice with the special bagpipe dipping sauce into her mouth helplessly.

...It tastes a bit strange.

Is this dip really necessary?

He chewed the rice carefully, frowned and savored the taste of the dipping sauce, then swallowed the rice with a gulp, but the strange taste still lingered in his mouth.

Why does it seem to smell a bit fishy?

"Captain, how does it taste?"

Bagpipe immediately asked her with sparkling eyes.

"Uh,"

She was hesitant to say it directly, "The taste may be a little too pungent for me."

Horn said politely.

But Bagpipe tilted his head and said "Huh".

"Captain, you didn't taste it?"

"What do you taste?"

Horn was stunned for a moment.

She had never tried the dipping sauce of Da Yancai.

Thinking of this, Horn suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart.

"that is,"

Fengdi held the chopsticks and gestured in the air with a hilarious expression. Like a child playing a riddle that only he understood, he tried to find the words to hint at her, "That's it. The taste of the doctor."

"The Doctor's taste...?"

Horn unconsciously looked at Luo Hang who was sitting next to Bagpipe, and then saw that Luo Hang's expression suddenly became a little subtle.

"I think it might be better if you didn't know the answer."

Luo Hang spoke to the horn very sincerely.

"Hey, Doctor, you haven't let the captain taste that yet?"

Miss Bagpipe grumbled, "You forced a lot into me the first time."

Horn's expression gradually became stiff.

A possible answer was emerging in her mind, but personally, she didn't want to accept that answer as a reality.

"Mmmm!"

Luo Hang wisely interrupted Feng Di and said, "Don't make it sound so strange. It's just Da Yan's specialty bean juice. It may have a bit of a beany smell, but many people still drink it once you get used to it."

"It's really quite addictive once you get used to it. Captain, if you haven't tried it before, it would be a good idea to give it a try sooner rather than later. You might just fall in love with it soon."

Miss Bagpipe spoke excitedly, with rice grains still stuck on her lips.

Luo Hang had actually called that thing "douzhi" before, and had even explained it to her, so she didn't care at all and just went along with what Luo Hang said.

Horn also forced a smile.

"So it's soy milk... I don't think I'll be able to get used to the taste."

"Oh, how do you know if you don't try it? I thought it tasted weird at first too. Captain, if you eat more, you'll probably get addicted."

"Yes, yes..."

Horn looked at his bowl.

So this thing is called bean juice...

Surely, it was impossible for Bagpipe to force the stuff she imagined into her meal?

That's right.

Then don't waste food, just eat it.

As if in self-hypnosis, Horn mechanically raised his chopsticks and continued to stuff the strange-smelling rice into his mouth.

The bagpipe on the opposite side was still watching with a smile.

"How's it going, Captain? Does it taste better?"

"..."

To be honest, it's still weird.

Horn could only smile stiffly and swallow the food in his mouth.

"Maybe there are better ones."

"Right, right!"

Luo Hang, who was sitting on the side watching, could hardly hold his forehead with his hands.

He had to admit, he hadn't expected things to turn out this way. He'd thought things might turn out unpredictable when he invited Horn, and he was absolutely right...

"Doctor, you should eat more too, okay? That way you'll have more energy for the night!"

"I will eat it, don't worry."

He curled his lips and ate his meal.

But now, looking at the complete and luxurious meal in front of me with fish, meat, vegetables and soup, I always feel that there seems to be another meaning in this luxury.

And I have to say that the portion of four dishes and one soup is actually quite large. Under normal circumstances, five people may hardly be able to finish the meal. Now, if we give it to three of them, the energy is really sufficient.

The room seemed to have finally settled into a peaceful mealtime.

Hornet, who was sitting opposite the two of them, put all his energy into finishing the rice with bean juice in his bowl. He almost never took the initiative to bring up a topic except when necessary.

She felt that the bagpipes seemed a little strange today, and if possible, it would be better to finish her meal early and get away.

It was also a bit strange to see Bagpipe eating his meal with big mouthfuls of flavor.

She was trying so hard to liven up the atmosphere, so why did the captain become even more silent?

I had already agreed to have a party with the doctor tonight, but now it's like this. It's really weird.

The three of them chatted casually, each with their own thoughts, while steadily finishing the dinner on the table.

Twenty minutes later.

Horn was sitting in the hotel room on the upper floor of the restaurant, staring blankly at the two people who were kissing each other with their heads turned back and forth.

Didn’t you say you came up to brush your teeth and drink a glass of water?

Because the bowl of rice with bean juice tasted really strange, she couldn't help but be dragged to the room upstairs by Fengpi.

Now they both brushed their teeth, and the taste in their mouths and throats was indeed much better, but where was the water?

Bagpipe, who was wearing a fashionable sweater and short skirt, was holding a toothbrush and a cup of water in her hands when the doctor hugged her from behind. It seemed that something strange was happening. As a result, the two did not separate until they finished brushing their teeth. Bagpipe turned around and kissed her without caring at all.

Strange noises and atmosphere permeated the entire room, which was stained with warm orange-yellow light.

Horn couldn't help but start thinking about life.

why?

Why did a perfectly good dinner end up like this? Was I out of touch with the times? Or was there something wrong?

or,

Should we retreat first?

Sitting at the edge of the bed, looking at the two people in her sight who seemed to have completely ignored her existence, this thought involuntarily popped up in her head.

The bagpipes sounded so strange today that she just wanted to go back to sleep and see if the world would return to normal tomorrow, or if it would really become a strange world.

"that,"
