Enforcer's Handbook

After planning the menu and following the guards into the castle, the sky had completely darkened.

Song Lan wanted to take a good look at the residence of the largest consortium in the coalition government, but it backfired. He was blindfolded after leaving the restaurant and getting in the car. When he got off the car and heard the door opening, he had already arrived at the consortium's royal residence. In front of the kitchen door, the behavior of the Guards was more like escorting the prisoners than leading the way.

Song Lan didn't even stay at the door for too long before she was invited into the kitchen by the stern knight.

The person in charge of greeting him in the kitchen was a blond girl who looked to be in her early twenties. She was wearing the iconic maid uniform and a pair of slightly rustic black-rimmed glasses on her nose. Song Lan When she entered the door, she looked at him up and down with curious eyes.

Unexpectedly, the knight of the Guards did not follow him this time, and he safely handed Song Lan into the hands of the maid.

You are number 13.

When leading the way, she whispered beside Song Lan.

What 13th place?

Of course he is the 13th chef brought here. I hope you are mentally prepared. All the people who applied before have failed.

Failed?

Song Lan followed the maid into the kitchen and asked casually, Then what happened to them?

Hearing this, the maid walking in front suddenly stopped.

The smile on her face changed, and her whole body exuded a sinister aura.

The eldest lady has a pet dog in the back yard. Well, it's different from the dog you imagined. It's much larger. Not only is it very difficult to clean, but the daily meal intake is also surprisingly large... The previous ones The failed chefs should all be reunited in its belly now.

What a dark culinary world!

No, even the dark culinary world does not impose such harsh punishments on failed chefs!

Pfft, you really believe it.

Seeing Song Lan's solemn expression, the maid covered her mouth and smiled softly, returning to the lively and cheerful look when she first met her. Of course those losers were sent home, but we will still pay them for their hard work... But look at what you just said With such a look, you must really believe that the eldest lady will do this, right?

Facing the maid's questioning, Song Lan could only respond with an awkward smile.

In just a few words, he was able to confirm that this maid, who looked about the same age as him, was definitely a scheming thief.

He really believed that Isabel would do such a thing, so he had already secretly pondered another serious question in his mind - whether the night heron could eat the giant pet dog described by the maid in one meal.

Okay, let's start preparing the ingredients first, and I'll help you.

The maid picked up the kitchen knife skillfully, and then stretched out her smooth and delicate hands to Ye Lu's paw on Song Lan's shoulder.

What are you doing, what do you want to do!?

The night heron felt a hint of chill, and immediately flapped its wings and shouted at the maid.

Hey, the ingredients have spoken!

The maid also stopped in surprise and stared at the strange bird on Song Lan's shoulder with wide eyes.

She is not an ingredient, but my important friend and assistant.

Song Lan took a step back and opened the distance between himself and the maid. Based on the maid's performance just now, he really believed that the other party would kill Yelu with one blow.

Yes, I am this chef's most useful assistant!

Night Heron also proudly puffed up his chest and proudly introduced himself.

Where did you catch her? I've never seen a talking bird!

This was a fateful encounter. One day when I was looking for precious ingredients in the harsh desert, I was attacked by a death crab. The nutritional injections and water bottles I carried were lost in the process of escaping. I thought I would I died like this in the desert, but when I fell to the ground and lost consciousness, she appeared in front of me and led me to a nearby village.

Song Lan gave full play to her ability to speak freely.

Huh? Am I so powerful?

Yelu muttered to herself in confusion, feeling the probing eyes of the maid, she stared back without showing any weakness. Now she had Song Lan's support and was fearless. If a fight broke out, she would bite her hard. Kiss the other person and say, Yes, I'm that powerful, don't mess with me!

Her fierce threats made the maid laugh. She slowed down her movements, put down the knife in front of Ye Lu, and smiled softly at Ye Lu, I'm sorry, I made a mistake just now, but I never I have never heard that such a magical little animal still exists in this world.

The conversation softened.

However, Song Lan knew very well that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface. A lively and lovely girl could not become the maid responsible for Isabel's meals, and Mrs. Carida's personal guards could not hand him over to the other party with such confidence.

These seemingly peaceful conversations are probably designed by the other party.

The purpose is to explore the bottom of the night heron.

But who is Song Lan? He had already thought of a countermeasure.

Later, after I returned home, I looked up a lot of information about her. Before the Third War, there was a kind of bird called a parrot. They could imitate human speech. I guessed that she should be a variant of a parrot.

In 2167, there are all kinds of strange mutated animals, and it is possible that parrots will one day mutate into new species that can understand human language.

I have heard of parrots.

The maid nodded thoughtfully, But she looks much more dangerous than the parrot I remember. She looks more like an eagle or a vulture.

You can rest assured that she has a good temper and has never actively harmed others.

The maid's smile still remained on her face, but her eyes stayed on Ye Heron for a long time, as if she was thinking about something.

After about thirty seconds, she chose to give in and said, I believe you, but for safety reasons, she cannot leave this kitchen, let alone approach any family member.

Did you hear that? You have to stay in this room and don't run around.

Song Lan touched Ye Lu's head. Ye Lu opened one of his wings in a very humane manner, blocking himself and Song Lan, and deliberately whispered at a volume that the maid could hear, I think They don’t seem to welcome us, otherwise we should go back, the head chef is much better than them and has never looked down on us!”

You have misunderstood. This is all for safety reasons.

The maid took the initiative and said, If you can provide dishes that satisfy the young lady, the consortium will try its best to meet all your requirements.

The way Song Lan and Ye Lu were whispering made her feel a little funny. They clearly looked like they had just arrived in a big city from the countryside of a neutral country.

She gradually let down her guard, and instead had the urge to chat with this person about interesting things about the neutral country.

However, due to the limitations of her responsibilities, she could not do this.

At this moment, Miss Isabel is still waiting for them. She sincerely hopes that the other party can make the eldest daughter happy, so that they can stay here for a long time.

I have seen the menu you provided, and all the ingredients are ready. If you have any questions, you can always ask.

Well, then I'll start.

By the way, I haven't asked your name yet.

Lucci, Rob-Lucci.

Song Lan said calmly, This is my name, what about you?

You can just call me head maid like everyone else.

Thanks to regularreader for the 500 starting coins!

Small Theater One Hundred and One:

A certain day of a certain year, a certain day, a Sunday, in the evening.

Lao Lu, to be honest, I have to thank you.

Why do you say that suddenly?

If you weren't the head of counterintelligence, I don't know how many times I'd be invited to tea.

When the topic reached this point, Song Lan suddenly felt something.

Being invited to drink tea by the counter-intelligence department is not a comfortable thing. It is reported that many people who drank tea from the counter-intelligence department were later sent to the prosthetic hospital due to acclimatization, food poisoning, or various weird reasons. Some even What's more, they even disappeared from people's sight.

Yes, my people have always wanted to invite you to tea.

Lu Xiang had to emphasize that her subordinates and the entire counterintelligence department were not just freeloaders. The council asked them to find out who was behind the Salted Fish Program. They soon suspected Song Lan based on various clues. .

However, for the sake of the safety of these young people, Lu Xiang rejected their proposal to invite Song Lan to tea.

The counter-intelligence department is not the only one in this world that can make people disappear out of thin air. This is a world full of dangers. Even many of Song Lan's friends have mysteriously disappeared.

Thank you so much. How did you convince them?

I said I tortured you every day.

Did they believe it?

Well, don't you always ask for leave? They all thought it was me. Recently, some people advised me to be gentler on you. After all, they are already willing to believe you when we are lovers.
