If Valentin knew what Chen Huijie was thinking just now, he might not be able to help laughing.
It wasn't that kind of ironic laugh. He would only slightly raise the corners of his mouth and chuckle, sighing in his heart that this little girl is really cute.
She thought that Valentine was still the reckless young man he was a few months ago.
It is impossible to see the heart that has accumulated for many years under this unchanged skin.
So far, there are only four people who know about the existence of this other world, and they are all family members that Valentin can trust without reason.
Although Franka is almost there, with Razer around, she can still be classified as a family member.
Others don't know about this, and naturally they don't know what Valentine thinks of them in his heart.
The impression doesn't change much from before, but they are more cute.
Even for Kelsey, an old woman with a slumped face all day long, Valentine added a little star to her cuteness.
At least, her tsundere performance towards the Doctor in the game is worthy of this star.
Have you ever seen a doctor who makes noodles with boiling water at four o'clock in the morning?
Kelsey has seen it.
Even if their relationship is really enemies...
Having seen this kind of secret, there may be some twisted emotions arising from that hatred.
But cute is cute, and Valentine will not change his attitude towards them just because his views change.
In the past, such a coincidental encounter with Chen Huijie would definitely make him seize the opportunity, and he would have to increase the probability of opening the strategy line no matter what.
But for Valentine now...
Even if there was a way to directly open Chen Huijie's strategy line, he would not try it.
Nothing is more important than going home and eating a meal cooked by your wife.
I have to pick up clothes in the afternoon, so I don’t have time to flirt with girls.
———————Two hours passed————————
Perhaps because we are about to arrive at Siesta, the sun is particularly bright today and the temperature is a bit higher than the previous few days. It seems that summer has arrived.
Valentine was riding a small bicycle, wearing sunglasses on his head and holding a toothpick in his mouth, driving crookedly on the road, with two words written all over his body:
"Itchy skin".
Fortunately, it was working time, and there were very few people on the road. Most of them were employees of the logistics department. No righteous person who could not stand it suddenly jumped out and kicked him.
But there are still people taking pictures.
It can be predicted that there will be a few more hot posts on the Rhode Island Anonymous Forum tonight, and there will definitely be fierce quarrels inside.
But what does that have to do with Valentine?
He was just in a good mood and his riding posture was a little arrogant.
…
"Although the products of the Ministry of Industry are very trustworthy, it is just a small shared bicycle."
Zi Lan stood at the door of a certain studio in the logistics department, looking at the little dragon man who was riding unsteadily in front of her and sighed softly.
"It's not a toy, and it doesn't need to be torque tested."
"ah?"
Valentine scratched his head and lightly kicked the small bicycle parked at his feet.
"Is this okay? I can't make it."
"……fine."
This kick made Zi Lan's mouth twitch.
She just felt that there was something wrong with Valentine's riding posture, but she couldn't say it directly, so she reminded her tactfully.
Now it seems that this kid didn't understand at all.
never mind.
"follow me."
After saying that, Zilan turned and left. Valentine followed quickly, looking around at the interior of the building, but imagining the appearance of those cheongsams in his mind.
The logistics department worked very efficiently and produced the finished product in five days. Not just the cheongsam itself, but all the other clothing that goes with it.
In the past five days, Valentin and Zi Lan had more than ten online exchanges in order to make these clothes perfect.
Now that the finished product is finally out, his heart is in his throat. As for whether it explodes or falls back, it depends on the quality of the clothes.
"arrive."
They didn't go far before they reached their destination.
Zi Lan opened the door, and a light fragrance came from inside the house, catching Valentine's attention. He moved his eyes over, but could only see darkness.
Click.
The lights turned on and the two walked into the room, and Valentine finally saw what it looked like inside.
The space inside the house is not small, about thirty square meters, but it is not empty at all, because the walls are covered with posters and paintings. In addition, there are many dummies piled in the corner of the room, as well as wooden easels and various paints.
There is no furniture, just folding chairs placed in the corner, which are quite clean. The whole thing looks like a painter's studio, with colorful floors, like an abstract painting. The aroma that fills the air comes from the uncapped paints, and it smells very natural.
But what attracts the most attention is what is covered by the curtain in the middle of the house.
From the exposed parts, it was obvious that they were four dummies. And what these dummies are wearing must be the four cheongsams.
“Nice environment.”
Valentin glanced at his surroundings and smiled.
"The logistics department does not have a room dedicated to exhibitions yet. After all, Rhode Island is a medical company."
Zi Lan walked to the model covered with cloth.
"Let's make do with it."
“After all, the work is the most important thing.”
With that, she pulled off the first piece of cloth.
A red figure caught Valentin's eyes.
What’s worn on that dummy is Razer’s “Spring Dragon” costume.
"The cheongsam is a type of clothing that the logistics department staff have never been exposed to. We spent a lot of time studying and finally learned how to make it."
Zi Lan stood next to Chunlong's costume and began to introduce.
"Although these cheongsams are not very consistent with the traditions of the Yan Kingdom, they more or less have the shadow of history in them."
Valentine couldn't agree more.
After all, Arknights is a game that sells two-dimensional paper figures. If a cheongsam that is completely consistent with history is released, there may be far fewer people buying it.
But the Spring Dragon Demon hasn't changed much, at least it doesn't look as good as the one next door.
"...The jacket is a red jacket, which is cut-proof, waterproof and dust-proof, and can be worn in reverse. The cheongsam style is made strictly according to your picture, and it is absolutely 100% authentic."
Following Zi Lan's hand, Valentin saw Chun Long's fishtail-shaped skirt, which was very beautiful with its edges cut into flowers.
"This dummy..."
At this time, he suddenly noticed something.
The heights of the four models are different. The one wearing the Spring Dragon is the shortest, which fits the height of Razer very well.
"As tall as my sister?"
"nature."
Zi Lan nodded.
"In addition, the figure of the dummy is exactly the same as the Razer operator, so you don't have to worry about the clothes not fitting properly."
"The cost of making the dummy is included in the customization fee, and there is no need to pay extra."
This explanation satisfied Valentine.
He paid the balance a few days ago, totaling ninety-nine thousand. If it weren't for the bonus from the city-cutting mission, he wouldn't have been able to choose such a highly customized plan.
The first one was perfect, and Valentin finally felt relieved.
As he expected, the ones at the back were also very good, especially the two pieces for Raphael and Xing Yihuang.
The second piece is for Raphael, made of white fabric and decorated with golden lines. Zilan boldly combined a nun's uniform with a cheongsam, and embroidered the classical Rutland patterns on the clothing. It looks quite holy, and the exposure level is the lowest among the four.
Xing Yihuang's is like Raphael's couple's model, using black fabric and also decorated with golden lines. At first, Zilan planned to embroider the traditional Yanguo patterns on her cheongsam, but she was killed by Valentine.
The reason is that it is too flashy.
After several discussions, we finally decided that having an oriental dragon as a tattoo would suit Xing Yihuang’s identity.
As for the traditional patterns of the Yan Kingdom, use them sparingly and not delete them all.
Therefore, this cheongsam cannot be backless like Chen Huijie's Sui Hongxia. But Zilan added a 'dragon scale' design, which means opening many small openings on the back.
It doesn't look like much at ordinary times, but it will open during strenuous exercise. The pieces look like raised dragon scales. Combined with the dragon-shaped pattern, they look very cool and the breathability is also very good.
This cheongsam is also the most revealing one, but it comes with matching pantyhose and long gloves. Valentine thinks he should be able to convince Xing Yihuang to wear it.
The last piece is a cheongsam for Franka. It has a similar design to Chunlong, but the main color is red, and there is no coat on the outside. It is the lowest cost one.
After showing the main parts, Zilan showed Valentin the matching clothing of these cheongsams, such as stockings, gloves, and headbands.
Because the cost of dummies is too high, these models only have upper bodies and no arms, so they can only show the most important parts of the cheongsam.
"Then what will you do with these dummies in the end?"
After watching and explaining, Valentine just wanted to give the logistics department a 666, and this was the only question in his mind.
"Use it as a target, or continue to use it as a clothes rack."
Zilan called a few staff members to push the model wearing a cheongsam down and explained.
The clothes will not be given directly to Valentine, but will be sent directly to his home after being packaged.
"Well……"
Hearing this, Valentine felt a little weird.
"What, you want to take these dummies away?"
Zi Lan noticed the change in his expression.
"I have no money, so you should keep this dummy for yourself."
"..."
The two chatted for a few more words, said goodbye to each other, and left.
Standing at the entrance of the logistics department, Valentin pushed the bicycle with one hand and dialed Razer's phone number with the other.
"Hello? Sister."
"Come to my house for dinner tonight~"
