"By the way, let's have dinner together tonight." Just as Wu Ke was about to take Sakura away, Sola suddenly invited him.
Wu Ke was stunned and looked at Kenneth first. When he found that the other party did not express a negative attitude, he thought for a while and nodded. Communication with neighbors and neighbors is also a required course for SM.
Then, he discovered with some embarrassment that tonight's dinner was steak, a whole piece that you had to cut yourself.
He held a knife and fork in his hand, but it was the first time he held western cutlery. In the past, the chef had cut the steak into small pieces that could be eaten directly with chopsticks.
Of course, it's not that he can't cut it himself, there's no technical content in it, it's just that his strength is a little stronger than before...
"Kacha!"
Sure enough, this worry was not unreasonable, but with a little more force, the plate containing the steak cracked.
"The quality of the tableware in your hotel is really poor." Sola said to the hotel employee next to him, who only served the highest-level customers.
The employee apologized quickly and brought a new one, but the new plate only resisted the first cut. When the second cut was made, there was still a 'click' sound, and the result was exactly the same as the first plate.
"No, you must have used all your strength to cut it, right?" Kenneth spoke. Once was an accident, but twice was a bit unjustifiable.
"I'm just a little stronger." Wu Ke said to the staff next to him: "Hello, can you help me change the plate into a cutting board? There is no need to change the steak. These two pieces are quite good."
Seeing the embarrassment on the other person's face, Wu Ke added: "I can ask the chef to help me cut it, or you can get a few more plates and let me practice my hands first, and then I can get familiar with the strength."
"Okay." The waiter went down.
Kenneth instinctively wanted to sneer a few words, but Sakura took the lead. Although she was weak, she was good at cutting meat. She picked up a piece of beef with a fork and handed it over: "Brother Wu Ke, eat mine." Come on, I can’t finish my food.”
Wu Ke looked at the size of a piece of steak, but it was not something that a child could handle, so he did not refuse: "Okay, then I will only eat half a piece for you!"
He opened his mouth and accepted Sakura's feed.
Kenneth moved his lips, but found that he couldn't say anything venomous. Facing the feeding scene that suddenly appeared on the opposite side, some possible beautiful scenes suddenly came to mind in his mind, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at the person next to him. Sora, but Sora glared at him and said in a bad tone: "Eat your own."
Kenneth was a little confused. Obviously, when they were young, they had a similar situation like facing each other and feeding each other, and it was Sola who took the initiative at that time. Why now, alas...
This dinner was a bit boring for Kenneth.
On the other hand, Sora's ears turned red, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
This gradual and subtle change started from the first day when she talked with Sakura, and the content of the conversation felt like a door to memories of the past had been opened in her mind.
The magician's family is too cold, and only a few memories have warm tones, and many of them are owned by her and the silly goose next to her.
Sora's inner rebellion against the marriage arranged by his family seemed to be gradually disappearing.
But originally it was just an outlet for her to vent, and Diarmuid's image of a naturally charming woman was inadvertently diluted from her heart.
To be honest, unlike ordinary women, Sora comes from the Sophialy family, a magic family. Diarmuid only has a moderate charm magic, but she has stronger resistance than normal people.
However, before that, she was somewhat immersed in the sense of rebellion brought by the charm, thinking that she was pursuing unfettered freedom and pursuing what she thought was the so-called true love.
And when the rebellious psychology that is the foundation is eliminated bit by bit, the fantasy without foundation is just a kind of illusion after all. After returning to reality, women's hearts will change.
In particular, Kenneth was struggling with what Sakura called him, and after removing the strange and somewhat unattainable sense of alienation from the man he hadn't seen for many years and becoming the magician of the Twelve Monarchs, Sora I got to know this again, but in fact, I haven’t changed much since then.
Although Sola's attitude towards Kenneth became more and more rough and less refined, this was how the two of them got along when they first met.
Although some emotions are difficult to express verbally, they still change the people involved in them bit by bit. Sola did it, and so did Kenneth, but neither of them clearly noticed the changes in themselves.
As the initiators of the change in the two people, Wu Ke and Xiao Ying did not notice the changes in the unmarried couple because they did not understand the past of the two people at all.
I just thought that the two of them were like this originally, and I didn't feel weird about it, but they acted as the lubricant and glue between them without knowing anything.
. . . . .
Time passed and soon came the third day of the arms deal.
After Emiya Kiritsugu confirmed the quality of the explosives he obtained, he began to take action. He had already done the work that needed to be prepared in advance these days.
"Sorry, who are you?" When they arrived at the hotel door, the hotel security stopped them from entering.
"We are here to repair the pipes." Emiya Kiritsugu took off his hat and replied very naturally, while Kuon Maiya, who was following behind him, lowered the brim of his hat. Both of them were wearing pipe repairman's clothes.
"Repair the pipe? Sorry, I have to confirm this with my boss."
"Please."
"team leader……"
The hotel security guard quickly followed up to confirm the situation, and the security captain above him also quickly confirmed the situation with his superior, the hotel manager who was responsible for trivial matters.
"Yes, I don't know what happened today. There are several layers of drainage pipes that are malfunctioning." The hotel manager hung up the call and scratched his head: "The pipeline company just called not long ago and they came so quickly. The action is still... It’s really efficient.”
But it was just a small thing and the hotel manager didn't pay much attention.
"Can we go in?"
"Okay." The hotel security guard moved out of the way, but when the two passed by, he took a few more glances at the cart pushed by the female maintenance worker behind him, which was covered with linen and had some bulging contents.
Before he could ask anything, Emiya Kiritsugu answered in advance: "This is our company's professional unblocking tool."
The security guard had no questions, and Emiya Kiritsugu entered the hotel smoothly. A female employee came over, but she was the one who was ordered to help them swipe their card and take the elevator to the VIP floor.
