While eating the buns, Changdao and Edu wanted to run away countless times, but the hand on the back of the collar was so firm that they didn't have any chance at all. "That...Befa?" Changdao glanced at Su Xin who was having breakfast, and lowered his voice to negotiate with the maid: "Do you like Coke? Sprite is also fine. How about giving you a few boxes of the ones I stocked up?" Befa responded in a businesslike manner, "I'm sorry, this is an order from the commander." "No... She just wants someone to walk with her. You'll be fine soon... If not, she'll be vicious." Tired of standing, he simply found a stool to sit on. Hearing this, he stood up again, "Good fellow...you sold me out?!" “Shh-shh!” Nagashima pointed his index finger at Evil to lower his voice, “It’s better to have one person die than two!” "Then why wasn't you the one who died?" Su Xin, who was sitting two tables away, sighed helplessly, drank the last sip of cold soy milk, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and then stood up to look over. "...I heard everything. Let's go."
Changdao and Evil suddenly gave up all thoughts and only lamented that they were unlucky today and could not leave half an hour earlier. ".··well." "...Ugh." Su Xin pretended not to hear and led the way out. In fact, she didn't plan to go anywhere at first. She was a quiet person and it was natural that she felt most comfortable staying at home. But E'du and Nagashima are too much of a homebody. Given the overflow of resources in the port area, they don't work if they can and don't go out if they don't want to. "...Won't it make me feel bored?" If you always lie in a room full of the smell of potato chips and snacks, you will grow mushrooms, right? This is why Su Xin insisted on pulling them out today. "Well, it's always good to get some fresh air." "..·Um." "...Um." To leave the island, one should first report to Vanya and wait for her to arrange a boat before reaching the city. However, with the little commander's ability, it was a piece of cake for her to run to the shore without being noticed. The reason she followed the procedure was simply because she wanted others to know that she was indeed on the island. It was past nine o'clock, so Vanya's shop was naturally open, but when Su Xin got closer, she found that Chen Yang did not seem to be in the store. "Good morning, Vanya." Commander Su Xiao greeted her and naturally began to ask, "Didn't Chen Yang come today?" "Hmm? Ah... It's rare to see you in the morning-" Vanya realized that there was something ambiguous in her words and coughed lightly, "Uh... I mean... well, she asked for leave today, saying that she had something to do at home, and she took the boat back this morning." "...What's up?" "Yeah." Vanya seemed a little wary. "I don't know more. She...she shouldn't have provoked you, right?"
Su Xin was confused when she heard this, "No, I was just asking casually." "That's good... Oh, by the way, what do you want to talk to me about?" Su Xin nodded, "I want to go shopping in the mall in H City. I haven't been out for a long time and I'm a little bored." "Oh, of course you can, but you may have to wait for the boat to come back before you can go out. About half an hour?" That’s no problem. Su Xin nodded and agreed, then sat in the shop in a daze. Changdao and Evil were chatting happily with Vanya, and most of the topics were about snack flavors and recommendations for good things. Su Xin was not very interested and didn't care much. After waiting for more than half an hour, Vanya nodded at her after receiving a call, and the four of them walked out the door together and boarded the boat to H City. The shopping mall that the Kitchen Goddess mentioned, which is still open, is located in the city center of H City. It is not very big and it takes about 20 minutes to get there by car. After getting off the car, the four people entered the gate and went straight to the floor plan. As can be seen from above, the scale of this shopping mall is not very large. Including the supermarket on the underground floor, there are only five floors in total. The first floor is mostly occupied by common sports brands and snack shops, the second floor is mainly clothing shops, the third floor is mainly for food, and the fourth floor is used for entertainment. Changdao and Evil’s goal is very clear. Now that they are here, they might as well go to the fourth floor to take a look at the surroundings and equipment, or play in the game city for a while. Beifa wanted to go to the supermarket on the underground first floor to buy some daily necessities, fresh fruits and vegetables were also a must, while Su Xin planned to take Beifa to the second floor to pick out some clothes. There were four of us in total, and we wanted to go to three different places. Although it wouldn't take long to walk from bottom to top together, Changdao didn't like shopping. "Why don't you two go shopping and buy some clothes? We can sit on the fourth floor for a while." "Okay!" Evil responded quickly, holding Changdao's hand and running away, fearing that Befa would jump out and catch people again. Su Xin originally planned to let the two of them go out for a walk, but she didn't expect that even when they arrived at the mall, they still had no intention of moving, which was really a difficult situation. "well··." Beifa was new here and couldn't help in this regard. He could only ask for advice quietly, "Do you need me to bring them back for you?" "...Forget it." The little commander knew that a forced melon would not be sweet, and it was not easy to get them out. "Let's go to the supermarket first." "Ok." The supermarket is similar in size to the previous Walmart and its contents are also very similar; it seems that only the name has been changed. Although Befa was just born, she was already familiar with the skills and duties of a maid. She glanced at the sign and walked towards the fresh food area. Although there is no shortage of food and drink on the island, things like fruits are rare. Even in winter when fruits are easy to keep fresh, they are rarely seen in gathering places. The ship girls have no demand for fruits, but Befa feels that as a human being, it is obviously necessary for her commander to consume some fruits to ensure a balanced nutrition. In fact, Su Xin seldom eats on weekdays, but she would not tell Beifa so directly, so as not to discourage the other party. "Commander, do you have any preferences? Oranges, apples, bananas, etc?" The young commander thought about it and felt that they were all similar, so he said casually: "Hmm... either is fine."
Befa paused as she looked at the apple, feeling a little frustrated. She had wanted to take this opportunity to find out more about her little master's taste. Although she already knew from Sheffield the few things that Su Xin hated to eat, it would naturally be better to know more. Su Xin followed the maid and saw that she was standing there in a daze. She realized that she should say more, so she looked around and finally found something that interested her. "Well...if I have to say...I quite like guava." "Guava?" Belfa put down the apple and looked around. He found a corresponding brand not far away. "Hmm... guava?" "Yes, I just think it smells delicious." Befa took note of it silently, then took some green fruits that were not very hard to squeeze, put them into a bag and weighed them. "What about the others? Commander, do you like peaches? How about pears?" "Peach..." Ever since Su Xin knew that she smelled like peach, she wasn't too fond of it. She always felt that it was a little weird. "... Forget it. Pear is fine." "What about the apples and bananas we just mentioned?" "It will be all right." Beifa smiled, and inexplicably felt closer, "I always feel that... it would be faster to just ask you what you don't like to eat." The atmosphere was just right, and Su Xin breathed a sigh of relief. She strolled around with Beifa casually. Most of the questions he asked were about her preferences, so of course she just answered them. After the two of them walked around the fresh food area, they were already holding several large bags of things. Beifa needed to continue picking things up, so Su Xin had to help carry some bags. "I'm so sorry, I should have pushed a shopping cart in advance." "It's okay, I'm very strong." It is obviously not appropriate to rashly put unpaid items into the space, but I will definitely not buy only these things this time, not to mention that I have to choose them carefully. So Befa thought for a moment and decided to pay for the fruits and vegetables himself, and then come back with the cart to continue selling things. Su Xin had no objection. She was such a grown-up, she couldn't possibly get lost in the supermarket, could she? Besides, there was a radio broadcast, so if it didn't work, she could just report it and go to the checkout counter and wait. After a brief discussion between the two, Befa walked towards the cashier first with his hands full of things. Su Xin had nothing to do, so she simply ran to the seafood area to look at the live fish. She has read many books, including some biological encyclopedias. Moreover, the types and prices of the items are usually labeled on the glass cabinets, so it is not difficult to recognize them by comparison. It is quite interesting. After looking around, Befa had not come back yet. Su Xin guessed that he should be queuing up, so she was not in a hurry. She looked around casually and seemed to catch a glimpse of someone familiar. The young commander was unsure and looked up at the sign of the counter. 【Daily necessities】 There are many and varied commodities in this category, and it is hard to guess what the other party wants to buy. Su Xin thought about it and simply walked over to see if she had recognized the wrong person. So, at the end of a row of toothpicks, trash cans, shoe brushes and other miscellaneous goods, she saw the pink-haired girl who was carefully comparing them with a mirror. "...Sister Perseus?"
The other person seemed startled, and almost dropped the mirror in his hand. The wing-like clothes behind him also trembled. When he saw that it was Su Xin who called people, he seemed to be relieved. "It's you... hello." "Hello." Su Xin took two tentative steps forward. Seeing that the other party was not very resistant, she moved closer. "Why didn't you go to the event today?" Perseus seemed a little flustered. Although he was a head taller than the young commander, his aura was much weaker, and his slightly round face was very tense. “I…buy things…” Su Xin glanced at the various dressing mirrors of different sizes on the cabinet beside her, "...I remember there seemed to be one in the bathroom?" Perseus unconsciously pressed a few fingerprints on the mirror, "Hmm... not enough..." Commander Su Xiao originally didn't dare to take the initiative to contact Perseus, a ship girl that had never appeared in the game, after all, her personality and settings were completely blank. But the other party is hairy. That's right, the young commander came over to talk, not because he cared about this ship girl whom he had met once, but because he just wanted to see the owl again. She thought so, and naturally couldn't help but say, "Sister, did your owl...come out too?" Perseus lowered his head nervously, and after a few quiet breaths, he nodded gently, "I'm coming... in... in the locker..." Su Xin opened her mouth, but then wisely swallowed back the words "In cabinet number n", fearing that she would scare the person away. Perseus was holding the mirror, not knowing what to say, while the little commander was trying to get the other party to take him to see the owl. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was silent for a while. Finally, Perseus mustered up the courage to speak, "It...it's called Gugu..." "Huh?" Su Xin came back to her senses and realized what the other person was referring to. "Oh... (Owl) is very cute!" Perseus tightened his fingers upon hearing this, and his soft cheeks seemed to relax a little, showing a little red, "Thank you, you...you too...are like a chick..." Su Xin: ??? "...Are you saying I'm short?" The young commander looked at Perseus' height, then at his tall hemisphere, "...It seems you're right." The two sides looked at each other again, not knowing what to say. Fortunately, Befa, who had gone to pay, came back pushing the cart. After taking two steps, he saw the two people standing there. "commander?" Su Xin exclaimed, "Ah!" and turned to look at the maid pushing the cart, "Sister Beifa, where are we going now?" Befa looked at Perseus inconspicuously, without having any impression, and did not ask much. After thinking for a moment, he answered in a very organized manner. "I have to buy a set of bedding. There is nothing else I need to buy. After that, you can go to the clothing area on the second floor to have a look according to your wishes. Finally, you can take them back with you." Su Xin nodded, having no objection, but when she glanced at Perseus who was still holding the mirror and not speaking, she felt a little soft-hearted for some reason. "...Can you bring Sister Perseus with you?" Perseus was stunned for a moment, then looked up with a stern face. Seeing that the young commander didn't seem to be joking, he turned his gaze to Befa who was pushing the cart. Facing the two people's focused and expectant eyes, Befa felt very strange.
She originally thought that since she had just arrived, she would not have much say, but she did not expect that her own commander would seriously seek her opinion. "Of course." Befa heard her voice, which was softer than usual, "Since it is your request, Commander." As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xin and Perseus breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and their bodies were no longer so tense, which made Befa laugh again. After the team expanded from a two-person group to a three-person team, Su Xin spoke much less. Fortunately, Befa's social skills were also good, and she could talk to Perseus for a few words, which made the atmosphere not so awkward. They walked around the supermarket, bought what they needed, and went straight to the lockers. Su Xin was very much looking forward to this and stood very close to Perseus, causing the Royal Light Aviation to scan the barcode several times without aligning it. When the cabinet was finally opened, the round owl that took up almost all the space inside cried pitifully twice.
