Chapter 1 Deep winter, spring is not coming

"Shopkeeper, shouldn't he also put the seats outside?" The slim clerk with beautiful silver hair walked in from outside the cafe with a tray in his arms. This was a girl who could become a prostitute in this not-so-large cafe, but her expression was not as pleasant as she could. Instead, she said with a frown, "The weather is getting colder, and there are fewer and fewer customers who are willing to sit outside, and now it is almost the end of the year. Although you should be able to make some money on Christmas, I think even that, the seats in the store should be enough. After all, it is not the peak season now, and putting them outside can be said to have increased the workload of the clerk a lot."

"Well... this is indeed a problem, but some people are still willing to stay outside. After all, I spent a lot of money to arrange the courtyard outside. The name "Four Seasons Flowerbed" even attracted many customers from the neighboring town - I remember that a few days ago, people from the neighboring town came to see it? It seems that the eldest lady from a prestigious family in the local area is called Liang Yue or something?" Zhao Mian lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head to look at it.

He said to the clerk in front of him, "Let's do it, reduce the eight tables outside to four... No, leaving only two is enough. Anyway, in this season, except those young ladies and other guys who have nothing to do, there should be no one who comes to enjoy the flowers and drink tea. So only the two tables on the side of the flower wall are left, and the two tables are just under the awning, and the remaining tables and parasols can be collected."

"I understand, I'll go and clean up now." The silver-haired clerk nodded, turned around and took a quick step, and walked outside.

"Ah, wait, I'll go too." Zhao Mian bent down, opened a hole in the bar from below, and walked out, "After all, this season, no one should come to visit at this time, so just clean up early and then close the store."

That's right, Zhao Mian has now opened a cafe in a new world, and has spent a lot of money to invest in it. It can be regarded as a return on investment. After more than half a year of slow operation, the business of the cafe has stabilized, and a little bit of fame has gradually spread in this area.

Zhao Mian's behavior was not a whim, nor was it a waste of time to find a shot. In fact, he was just looking for a little bit of adjustment for his life of recuperation. That's right, he was seriously injured during a journey not long ago. The little bit of injury could not stop Lao Zhao, the Holy Light flashlight, but he never expected that he would be hit intensively when he first entered the world. The density of the artillery fire made Zhao Mian not even have time to breathe the air in that world, just in a "blood sacrifice to the blood god,

The skull sacrifice to the master of the skull." was bombarded out of that world. Of course, injury was not the key, but Zhao Mian was far from expecting that he would immediately encounter a new time and space problem after being severely damaged - these two problems could not stop him, but at this time they became the foundation for the future. The power of nothingness invaded his body at this most critical moment. Although the Holy Light still did not forget him, a loyal traveler, nothingness gnawed on his bones like a stubborn disease.

This seriously affected his strength - this may become a fatal factor at any time in the travel of nothingness, which is unknown. Of course, if the power of nothingness explodes in the world, it will be not just Zhao Mian, a trivial traveler, who will destroy it. The idea of ​​letting the whole world be buried with him has never survived for more than a minute in Zhao Mian's mind.

So he tried his best to find a safe world in the fastest way, chose a quiet and peaceful place, and planned to slowly solve these problems one by one. Of course, it is the current world.

"Hey." The silver-haired girl put the tray in her arms and looked very exquisite. It was a table made of rattan, and then reached out to put away the wide parasol and carried it on her shoulder. The free hand naturally brought the two rattan stools beside her, then grabbed the back of the chair leaning together and lifted the stool. Zhao Mian twisted up the stone base of the parasol, and lightly supported the table with the tray in one hand. Behind the silver-haired girl, walking towards the side of the cafe - behind the coffee shop, a double-story house next to each other was there. It was Zhao Mian's usual residence and a place where various debris in the cafe were piled up.

"There should be nothing else left." Zhao Mian took advantage of the dim lights in the warehouse and roughly counted the quantity, saying, "The things that need to be collected should be here. Although these rattan things need to be put in some medicine and do some other work before they can be put into the warehouse, those things can be left until tomorrow and during the day. Let's do it for now. Thank you for your hard work. Even Miss Yamabuki, who is a formal employee, has already returned, but you, a working student, have been left for now."

"No, this is not a big deal. Miss Yamabuki also left unexpectedly today because she had some personal affairs. If her sister had not suffered from a seasonal cold, I believe she would have stayed there until now." The silver-haired girl said this. She took her tray from the rattan table on one side, and then reorganized the somewhat messy seats, making them look less tilted. Finally, she reached out to turn off the warehouse lights and walked towards the door. "And if it weren't for the store manager's actions last year, I would probably feel regretful for the rest of my life, let alone live like now."

"I just did what I should do and what I could do." Zhao Mian said, "Compared with your younger brother, what I did is just a drop in the bucket - Speaking of this, how is your younger brother's current situation? His legs should be fine, right? After all, he has been discharged from the hospital for more than half a year."

"Well, Yingwen is very energetic now." A smile appeared on the girl's face that was different from the one facing customers. If you want to say, it would probably be a warm and gratifying smile that would make this December winter night warm. She held the edge of the tray tightly with her hands, held the tray in her arms, and said softly, "I heard him say he wanted to join the track and field team two days ago. That confident look is really energetic."

"Is that? That's good. It seems that my worries are really unnecessary." Zhao Mian nodded, "Well, okay, close the store! Ah, by the way, the aquatic chef sent a lot of crabs today. To be honest, the number is really exaggerated. If I want to solve it alone, it will probably be very difficult, so - do you have to try my skills?"

"No, this...is very sorry. Although it is a very honorable person. And I am very looking forward to the skill of the store manager." The silver-haired girl said hesitantly, "But today is the day when my mother comes back. Although the conversation between the store manager and them has gradually increased their contact with the family, there are still very few times when I can see them, so I finally saw my mother, so... I am really sorry."

"Well, that's it. It doesn't matter. Go home and have a good meal with your mother and brother." Zhao Mian said.

"Woo, I'm really sorry." The girl lowered her head and said, for some reason, the figure seemed a little dejected.

"It's okay to say it's all." Zhao Mian shook his head and said helplessly. He reached out and knocked the girl's forehead, which made the girl look at him, "Come on, come with me and go back to get some crabs in the kitchen. I believe that with your skills, you will definitely leave a good memory for your mother."
