Open the bamboo cage. In my mind, this is where the bread is placed.
According to the magician's habit, he usually orders people to make more bread, so that he will have something to eat when he wants to eat. It's not like another noble sister. The bread she wants to eat is kneaded and baked a little early before the main meal. In the words of a certain magician, if you want to eat temporarily, you will starve to death by the time the bread is ready.
When the bamboo cage was opened, it was indeed filled with bread. Seeing this, other children also went to open the bamboo cages in the same row. Of course, there were all kinds of food stored in them. There are several types of bread, including toast with a fluffy center. If it's topped with a layer of peanut butter or strawberry jam, it's Ezio's favorite.
There was a greedy person who just picked up a French stick and gnawed it, but everyone still put it in their pockets desperately. No matter how much you steal, it doesn't matter if you take more or less, it will be the same when you are discovered. So it’s better to get as much as possible.
However, Ezio did not desperately grab the bread that was already baked and ready to be eaten like the others. He moved to another large box, which was a magic item that could maintain the temperature inside. It can be high or low. For some foods that are easy to spoil and smell, putting them inside and storing them at low temperature can extend the storage time. This is someone's version of a Midi refrigerator.
After finding the refrigerator, Ezio's goal is to save the milk inside. According to those sisters, this thing is good. Although it cannot be eaten as food, if you want to grow taller, you must drink it. If you feel uncomfortable, you can still maintain your basic physical strength by drinking a little milk.
And not only people drink it, but the cats also like to drink it, so this should be a good thing. Ezio thought about taking it back and giving Lucy a taste.
However, this thing was in a can, and it couldn't be left outside for too long, so Ezio only took one can of milk. He still remembered that one time when he was playing, the milk had been left outside for too long, and it had a very pungent sour taste when he drank it. That night I had diarrhea and was half dead. I fell on the bed and couldn't get out of bed for two days. That feeling is not pleasant.
Seeing that others have already obtained it, they can no longer take it. Not only do you have to put your clothes in your pocket, pack the bread bag until the tips come out, hold it between your armpits and the crook of your hand, you also have to bite it in your mouth. Looking at this posture, it would be difficult to walk. Ezio quickly whispered: "If you have enough, leave quickly and don't cause trouble here. If we are not discovered, we can come back again."
The children nodded hurriedly and put the bamboo cage back in place. After thinking that they had done a good job of covering up, they left the kitchen one by one. Ezio was the one with the emptyest hands. In addition to holding a can of milk, he also took the bread that was difficult for others to hold. Before leaving, his sharp eyes saw something incredible - chocolate bars made of cocoa.
Once you eat this, you will never forget it. The greedy Ezio wrapped a few pieces in oil paper, put them in his arms, and followed in the footsteps of the other children.
The return journey is not like the outbound journey, because everyone has a lot more things on their hands, which makes the children more cautious. It's not that I'm afraid of things falling on the floor or anything, but I'm afraid that someone will come out and grab the food in my hand.
Not everyone in the lower streets is willing to help each other; more people live by grabbing what others have. So on the way back, the children were hiding and walking much slower.
When we returned to everyone's place of residence, it was impossible to say that the spoils were divided up on the spot. Some children who had gone to bed hungry were woken up again. They were cursing and preparing to get angry, but they were blocked by the food stuffed into their mouths, and no anger could come out. They were overjoyed to eat the food that they didn't know where it came from, and praised the warriors who got it.
Ezio and Willy came to Lucy's side. The two guys were offering treasures, one brought out milk and the other brought out white toast, coaxing the girl, who had always had little appetite, to eat some.
Tear off the edge of the toast to reveal the fluffy white part inside. The girl has never seen bread like this. Tearing off a small piece effortlessly is completely different from tearing off brown bread with all your strength.
If a girl wanted to eat the hard bread in the past, she would have to hold it in her mouth for a long time until saliva produced and the black bread was soaked until it was soft and rotten before she could swallow it. But when the white toast is put into the mouth, the soft texture is unprecedented. The light aroma and salty taste are all over the taste buds. The girl thought, maybe this is the taste called 'happiness'.
Taking out a bowl, Ezio poured three or four percent of the milk and handed it out. "Drink this and see."
Looking at the white and shiny liquid under the moonlight, Lucy was a little confused. It was only after Ezio took a sip that the girl understood that it was something to drink. She took the broken bowl with only a gap in it, but even though it was less than half full, it was still a bit difficult for the girl to hold it with one hand. But she still took it and took a sip.
It has a completely different taste than water, and its smooth texture instantly conquers the taste buds that are used to eating rough meals. The girl simply couldn't use her poor feelings and vocabulary to describe what it felt like.
"Eating toast dipped in milk tastes very good." Ezio said in a bewitching voice.
Lucy followed suit, and the feeling of overlapping happiness left her speechless. The only thing I can do is take one bite after another. Ezio advised from the side: "Eat slowly, eat slowly. Don't eat too fast or you will choke."
Seeing something different, the children eating the bread naturally gathered around Ezio. There is also the clever one who knows how to bring a bowl with him.
Ezio welcomed everyone who came and poured a little milk for everyone. Willy wanted to stop it and leave more space for his sister. But Ezio, who saw his expression, smiled and said, "Let's share it with everyone. Milk is different from bread. You can't keep this for several days. You have to drink it quickly, otherwise it will go bad." Lose."
Not counting explanations, even if Willy wanted to object, there was no good reason. But such a commotion certainly disturbed the children sleeping far away, including Rowan.
The eldest child who was taking care of and leading everyone suddenly saw so much food, and a lot of it had been eaten or was being eaten. He asked with an ugly face: "Where did these things come from?"
Ezio stood up and said, "I see that everyone is hungry, and there is no one to take care of the food, so I will take someone to get it back."
"But……"
Seeing that the person in front of him still wanted to talk nonsense, Ezio did the same thing and stuffed the softest part of the toast into Rowan's mouth. At the same time, he raised the can and gave the big boy a sip of milk.
Maybe everyone is hungry and their thoughts are not as complex as adults. Even Rowan, who was the most worried, had to compromise with food. But while he was chewing, he asked worriedly: "Is there really no problem if we bring these back?"
"Don't worry. Even if the magician leaves a magic mark, he won't leave it on the food. Let's finish eating quickly and poop, and those who are looking for us can only search along the river. It's impossible to find us. On the body.”
Despite Ezio's assurances, Rowan always felt something was wrong. But with his knowledge and vision, he couldn't detect what was wrong. In the end, my stomach defeated my reason. And these breads were so delicious that even if there were any consequences, he didn't care.
While the children were feasting, a quiet bald gray cat and a girl in a white cat suit lay in the darkness where the moonlight could not reach. They just watched silently.
