People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "You mean... rent the villa in advance?"

"Huh? Rent? Lucy, you obviously don't know about housing prices in many countries. In many places, land is plentiful and sparsely populated, houses are very cheap, and the furnishings are fine too. In addition, if you go to travel, you don't need to buy a luxury house. A local-style duplex or a small villa will do."

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "That seems to make sense... So I should go buy a couple too? I'm actually looking forward to it, how decadent of me."

Zdrada and the others looked at Lucifer strangely. Lucifer was a fallen god, so it was clear that his claim of being too depraved was rather ridiculous.

Lucifer coughed lightly and said, "That's not the point. The point is that what happens next is up to you and Yumiko. It's time for you to prove yourselves!"

"So you're really having an easy time as the shop owner, huh? What about Yuko? Um...it seems like she's really not up to the task..."

Lucifer nodded and said, "That's right, it really won't work. Alright, you guys continue, I have other things to do too."

After hanging up, Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I understand that houses are cheap because the land is sparsely populated, but won't it be a lot of trouble...?"

Alice shook her head and said to you, "Lucy, you're overthinking it. It's not like that at all. Putting aside the fact that it's true, just the procedural issues... you should go directly to the power of money and influence, especially since it's a legitimate process, it's just faster."

"Alice, aren't you a chef? How did you know?"

"Um... when I was learning to cook, I liked to watch other things to pass the time when I had nothing to do..."

Lucifer said irritably, "Are you sure it's not because you don't want to study, but because you feel that everything else is interesting?"

"Um... I don't think so..."

As the sun was about to set and the sky was getting rather dim, everyone knew it was time to head back. Ichihara Yuuko put down her phone, stretched, and said, "Another day has passed. It's been tiring."

Rindou Kobayashi nodded and said, "Yes, it was really hard work, but it was very rewarding."

"That's right!"

Looking at these two guys who had spent the whole day playing on their phones and computers, doing nothing but eating, Nakiri Managi and the others twitched their lips. Seriously? What have you two been working hard at?

Yuuko Ichihara turned to look at Managi Nakiri and said with a smile, "Managi, do your best tomorrow too."

"Oh... wait a minute! Why are you acting like you've been working so hard when you've been doing nothing but watching movies, playing on your phone, eating and drinking?"

Yuko Ichihara waved her hand and said, "I did a lot of things today, like giving lectures and such."

Nakiri Managi and the others twitched their lips. Although it was ridiculous, it made a lot of sense. Ichihara Yuuko breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go back. I still want to see who Shiraha's friend is. That brat Rindou won't say anything."

Rindou Kobayashi sighed and said, "You would be absolutely surprised if you knew his true identity, except for Nami and the others."

Nami and the others were taken aback. Kobayashi Rindou knew about the other world, so what he said meant that people in the other world didn't know him, but people in this world definitely knew him.

Klara asked in surprise, "Really? Who is he? Is he some kind of celebrity?"

Rindou Kobayashi thought for a moment and said, "In a sense... he can be considered a star, or even more famous than a star, after all, he is world-renowned."

Dekker was also somewhat surprised and said, "World-class?! This is a world-class superstar! Can a superstar really come out and have fun so easily?"

Rindou Kobayashi thought for a moment and said, "Pretty much. In a sense, he's a superstar... but he won't let anyone recognize him. If nothing unexpected happens, you won't recognize him when you see him."

Rantab said with a strange expression, "What kind of evaluation is that? If someone is a superstar but you don't recognize them even when they're standing right in front of you, what kind of superstar are you?"

Rindou Kobayashi sighed and said, "What I mean is that his name can be considered that of a superstar, but it's just a name. You can't just see him whenever you want, and even if you did, you wouldn't recognize him."

Rantabi said with anticipation, "I'm suddenly really looking forward to it! What title is so amazing! God of Song? God of Dance? Or what?"

"Hmm...you'll find out after he finishes dinner tonight."

“Tch.…”xn

There's really no way to describe Kobayashi Rindou. Should we say he's known as Phantom Thief Kid, or something like God of Song and God of Dance, but "King of Little Thieves of Japan" is definitely a good name?

Yuko Ichihara said irritably, "You girl, you're only interested in these useless things. You're not interested in anything important."

"What important business is it...?"

Upon hearing this, Kraki pinched Rantabi's ear and said, "You brat, all you do is eat, drink, and play all day long. When have you ever thought about anything else? What, are you going to stay single forever?!"

"I...I...I understand...."

Kraki sighed and said, "Why do I have such a useless grand-disciple...?"

Everyone was taken aback. Yuko Ichihara looked at the silent Rantabi and said with a puzzled expression, "How did Rantabi become your grand-disciple? There's such a big difference in seniority!"

Dekla smiled and said, "That's right. There are three of us who are the first-class executive officers of WGO. As for An, she was trained by me and Klaqi. So she is An's teacher."

Everyone nodded. Kraki smiled and said, "And Ann trained Rantabhi, which is why the two of them are so close. Although Ann didn't train them the whole time like we did, Rantabhi is practically Ann's student. Ann is still both of our students, so what seniority do you think Rantabhi belongs to?"

Nami said somewhat awkwardly, "I think I know why Ranta is more favored than you in WGO..."

Kraki said irritably, "Huh? Compare? How much more favor does this girl want? She's definitely one of the most free-spirited characters in WGO!"

Rantabi whispered, "I've been working hard too..."

An, unusually annoyed, said, "Really? Then why don't we check what's going on with your secret stash of money?"

"I....."

Lantabi immediately fell silent. She was the youngest in WGO, and very lively and playful. She was well-liked in WGO, and the three First-Class Executives took good care of her, especially since she was a Special Second-Class Executive. She was considered quite favored.

Yuko Ichihara said softly, "Alright, let's go back first. Lucy and the others should be heading back by now."

"Hmm!" xn

While they were chatting, Lucifer and the others also headed into the shop. Erina glanced at Alice beside her and whispered, "When did you start liking this...?"

"What about you?"

"I don't know..." x2

Erina and Alice both paused for a moment before looking at each other. In that instant, their eyes were filled with a complex mix of wariness and...unusual intimacy...

"Hey... you idiot Erina... what are you planning to do?"

What do you think we should do?

"I don't know..." x2

"Idiot..." x2

"You idiot Erina! I won't lose to you! You even stole my toys before! This time I'm going to win!"

"Huh? What does this have to do with this?!"

"In any case, I will not lose to you!"

"You think you can beat me when you always mess up at crucial moments?!"

"I...you're the one who messed up! You idiot Erina!"

Hisako, caught in the middle, looked completely flustered and unsure of whom to help. Zdrada said softly, "Is this some kind of mutual encouragement between girls?"

"Who knows~"

Erina and Alice continued bickering until they reached the street corner, where they saw Ichihara Yuuko and the others arrive. Ichihara Yuuko and Kobayashi Rindou immediately went over to them.

Kobayashi Rindou hooked his arm around Lucifer's neck and said with a smile, "Lucifer, how's it going? Any progress?"

Lucifer chuckled and said, "These two girls have been arguing the whole way..."

Yuuko Ichihara was taken aback and asked in confusion, "You've been arguing the whole way? What were you arguing about?"

Lucifer laughed and said, "Of course they're arguing about who can become the boss's wife first. Neither of them is willing to give in, so they've been arguing all the way here, but..."

Yuko Ichihara laughed and said, "What arguing... they're just encouraging each other..."

"Pfft..." x2

Looking at the three people laughing for no apparent reason, everyone felt a strong sense of malice. Nakiri Managi glanced at Erina, who also noticed and turned to look at Nakiri Managi.

In an instant, everyone could sense a faint smell of gunpowder...

After exchanging a glance, the two turned their heads away. Nakiri Managi raised an eyebrow. This brat was actually trying to steal him from her. It was time to teach her a lesson about the power of time.

Erina narrowed her eyes, and Alice glanced at her before snorting, but no one paid her any attention. Grayfia, unusually, muttered a quiet complaint, "Suddenly, I feel like emotions are a pretty powerful thing..."

"Hmm..." xn

"What are you all standing there for? Go back! Maybe Bai Yu has already come back."

Kobayashi Rindou waved his hand and said, "Impossible. If Shiraha went out with that guy, he wouldn't be back so early. He's probably visiting a museum or art exhibition now."

Lucifer said with a puzzled look, "You've got quite an artistic flair, but does it really take that long to visit museums and art exhibitions?"

Kobayashi Rindou shook his head and said, "No, no, no, he's not looking at these artifacts, but rather at the details, the author, and the general history. That's why he went to those two places."

Lucifer asked in confusion, "Huh? What does he do for a living? Why does he need to study things in such detail?"

The others also looked on with anticipation. Kobayashi Rindou just smiled and said, "You'll know when they get back. Let's go."

Although the group looked puzzled, they still followed. Meanwhile, Shiraha and Kuroha Kaito also came out of the museum. Kuroha Kaito smiled and said, "Um... Shiraha-nii, what do you think of that oil painting?"

Bai Yu said with a hint of helplessness, "Why are you asking about oil paintings when you're only interested in gemstones?"

"Hey... okay, okay, it's just that I was a little curious because I saw you glanced at that oil painting a couple of times earlier, Brother Baiyu."

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "That oil painting is quite interesting. The painting skills are very good, but I always feel that the painting was damaged and then someone added a couple of strokes."

Kaito Kuroba thought for a moment and said, "Is that so? That's really impressive drawing skill... By the way, Shiroba-nii, shouldn't we go back now? I'm starving."

Bai Yu sighed and said, "So you came all this way just to ask me if I want that scabbard?"

"Of course, but we should also have some food and take some photos. Maybe when we get back, we can make that woman who can't speak properly furious."

"You and Akako are really something... But didn't Akako come?"

Kaito Kuroba waved his hand and said, "No, I came early. There are always some things she can't predict, like you, Shiroba-nii, aren't there things she can't predict at all?"

"That's true... So you really want to annoy her."

Kaito Kuroba thought for a moment and said, "Rather than saying that, I'd like to see what you'll do, Shiraba-nii... After all, you haven't told her, have you?"

Shiraha gave Kuroba Kaito an annoyed look before walking towards the store, while Kuroba Kaito smiled and followed after him.

Lucifer and the others were still waiting, but Lucifer also recounted his conversation with Soryuin Shion. Just as everyone was about to discuss it, they saw the shop door open.

Bai Yu looked around the shop with some surprise and said, "Everyone's back so early..."

Lucifer rolled his eyes and said, "We all came back at the normal time, it's just that you came back too late, and besides, you were the only one who came back?"

Bai Yu shook his head, and just as he was about to speak, he saw a short-haired boy walk in. When he saw Lucifer and the others, Kuroba Kaito smiled and said, "Good afternoon, everyone. I am Kuroba Kaito."

Everyone nodded. Kraki looked at Kobayashi Rindou with a puzzled expression and said, "Is this the person you said is world-famous, but whose face you don't recognize?"

Kobayashi Rindou laughed and said, "Of course. Speaking of which, what are you doing in Tokyo, Kaito? Going to borrow something again?"

Kaito Kuroba said with a smile, "Rindou-nee, judging from the fact that you haven't left yet, aren't you going back to Totsuki?"

Kobayashi Rindou waved his hand and said, "I'm not going back. I'm pretty much done with my studies now. Things are pretty much like this... (hundreds of words omitted here) So for now, I'm just going to focus on being my boss."

Kaito Kuroba nodded and said, "Eh? Rindou-nee, what if Shiroba-nii hadn't given you an excellent rating back then?"

"Then I'll bite him to death!"

Bai Yu said somewhat helplessly, "You guys chat, I'll go prepare dinner. You should have your own order too, right?"

"The same thing is fine. Oh, and I'd like a strawberry parfait."

"it is good."

After Bai Yu went to the kitchen, Kobayashi Rindou smiled and said, "Let me introduce you. You've probably only heard of it but never seen it..."

Over the next few minutes, she kept calling everyone "sister" and such, which made her very popular. Klara smiled and said, "So, what did you mean when you said your name is famous all over the world?"

Kobayashi Rindou pointed to Kuroba Kaito's backpack and said, "His real name is in the bag. You'll be very surprised if you find out. You'll be extremely surprised."

"Huh?" xn
