…
Shen Ye and his friends did not stay in the Black Lagoon Office for too long as everyone was tired, so after a simple breakfast, Shen Ye took Ada and others back to his residence.
It's a bit of a pity that the house Shen Ye rented is still too small. When only Roberta and Garcia moved in some time ago, the poor maid had to sleep on the sofa, not to mention now there are three more women.
So after simply arranging for the children and ladies to rest, Shen Ye suggested that he go out and find a bigger room.
Aida and Koko immediately said that they could not stay here for a few days, and asked him not to find a new house and to rest for a while first.
However, Shen Ye still remembered to cook a meal for Ada and insisted on going out.
Of course, he also planned to take advantage of the time away to reorganize his thoughts.
After all, even the character of Jormungand has appeared, so it's hard to say what will happen in the future.
After leaving the rental house, Shen Ye went to the nearby market, where he could buy some domestic food and condiments.
As he walked, he recalled the plot of the Jormungand and the personal information of Koko and Valmet.
The plot of Jormungand follows Koko Hekmatyar, a young arms dealer working for the HCLI Corporation. While traveling the world selling weapons with her team of elite bodyguards, she secretly develops the Jormungand Plan, a global quantum network designed to restrict air travel and communication, aiming to force world peace by making large-scale war impossible.
As outrageous as it sounds, what's even more outrageous is that at the end of the story, the Jormungand Plan actually succeeds.
Of course, given the current chaotic plot, this situation should be impossible to achieve. After all, the actual technological means of various countries are much higher than those in the original world of the Jormungand.
So Shen Ye quickly gave up recalling the plot and just silently recited the names and some information of Koko and Valmet in his heart.
"Koko Hekmatyar, the key figure overseeing HCLI's arms trade operations in Africa and Europe, is a woman with a powerful background, her father is a global shipping tycoon."
"Valmet, whose real name is Sofia Velmer, is Koko's most trusted companion. A former major in the Finnish Mechanized Hunter Squadron, she hails from a military family. Despite being blind in one eye, her formidable combat skills remain unaffected..."
…
An hour later, Shen Ye came back with the ingredients.
As soon as the door was opened, Roberta, who had just finished taking a shower and was dozing off on the sofa, stood up and walked towards Shen Ye.
"Leave it to me." Roberta, who was still wearing her maid outfit, naturally took the bags from Shen Ye's hands, as if she was a maid welcoming her master home.
"Where are they?" Shen Ye looked around the living room and didn't see Ada, Koko and the others.
Roberta pointed to Shen Ye's bedroom: "Inside."
"Well, it seems that I have to be the director for once." Shen Ye shrugged helplessly.
Then he saw Roberta walking towards the kitchen with a bag, and he shouted, "Just put the things in the kitchen, I'll get them later."
Roberta paused, then nodded vigorously: "Okay."
When Roberta put his things away and returned to the living room, Shen Ye was sitting on the sofa smoking.
"Don't you want to lie down and sleep for a while?" Roberta asked, standing in front of Shen Ye.
"Where will you sleep if I lie down? There is only one sofa here." Shen Ye shook his head: "I'll just sit and take a nap later."
"But..." Roberta looked at Shen Ye who was lighting his second cigarette, and suddenly remembered what happened in the car.
She was actually awake at that time, so she knew clearly that she was resting her head on Shen Ye's thigh.
Then, she sat next to Shen Ye and said shyly for the first time: "If you don't mind that my skirt is a little dirty, you can sleep on my legs for a while."
Hearing this, Shen Ye paused his smoking. He turned his head to look at Roberta and suddenly found that there seemed to be a slight blush on her face.
"Ahem... this isn't a good idea." Shen Ye said with a light cough.
But I felt a little restless in my heart.
It's a knee pillow, and it's the maid's knee pillow. And this maid is Roberta!
"There's nothing wrong with it." Having said that, Roberta stopped being shy and said directly, "This is what you deserve."
"In that case, thank you very much."
After a brief ideological struggle, reason was defeated. Shen Ye threw away the cigarette butt, slowly rested his head on Roberta's legs, and closed his eyes.
Although there was some smell of blood and gunpowder left by the fire on Roberta's skirt, he still smelled a faint fragrance. He didn't know whether it was her own fragrance or the smell of shower gel after taking a bath.
But Shen Ye clearly remembered that his only bathing supplies were a piece of odorless sulfur soap.
…
Shen Ye slept very comfortably and peacefully, and did not wake up until the afternoon.
When he looked at the time and found that it was already afternoon, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Sorry, Roberta, I slept too long." Shen Ye quickly sat up straight and apologized to the maid.
But Roberta just shook his head: "It's okay, Shen, I'm not tired."
Then she stood up and prepared to go to the bathroom, but because Shen Ye had been resting on her head for too long, her walking posture became a little strange.
This scene happened to be seen by Koko, who had just woken up and was going out. She gave Shen Ye a meaningful look.
"What's that look in your eyes?" Shen Ye noticed Koko's look and asked unhappily.
"It's nothing, actually I didn't see anything." Koko yawned and said, "I'm just hungry, I wanted to ask if you have anything to eat in the kitchen."
"There are only some ingredients. If you are hungry, you can drink some beer first. Dinner will have to wait. I'm going to cook it." Shen Ye pointed to the box under the coffee table in the living room. There was still a lot of beer in it, which Levi brought when she came to visit his house.
"You can cook?" Koko suddenly perked up with interest. She glanced at Shen Ye and said, "It's rare to see a man who can. So, what's the appetizer soup for dinner tonight?"
"Tomato and egg soup." Shen Ye glanced at her, "Also, just so you know Chinese meals don't usually start with soup."
"Chinese? Mao told me it sounds delicious." Koko was full of anticipation, but when she saw Roberta coming out of the bathroom, she said, "I'll continue sleeping. I hope I can see a sumptuous dinner when I wake up again."
After saying that, she smiled at Shen Ye and then closed the door.
"It's just like in the plot, a crazy woman." Looking at the closed door, Shen Ye complained, and then said to Roberta: "Roberta, I'm going to prepare dinner, can you help me?"
"I'd be happy to do that." Roberta lifted up a corner of the maids and said elegantly while half bending his body.
