chapter.19 The innocent monster(2/2)
Being greeted by her in a rare formal and polite tone, Klein almost forgot what he was here for.
But when he looked into those eyes full of evil smiles, he suddenly reacted and whispered in a low voice:
"No, you said before that if I have any clues, I can come to the cafe to find you...but you didn't say anything at all. I have to pay to order when I come in!"
"Of course, you can choose not to order it."
Alice's smile was pure and kind, making people unable to get angry just by looking at it.
She then took out the booklet and pen for recording orders from her apron, scribbling on it and chanting:
"A cup of Fenebote Plateau coffee, a pot of jasmine tea, two Intis-style colorful round cakes...the total cost is 15 soles and 8 pence. However, because the guest has a 10 sole voucher given by Danitaly
With the coupons and the 5 sulers kindly sponsored by Alice, you only need to spend 8 pence to enjoy a delicious afternoon tea. It’s a good deal, right?”
When he heard the girl announce the sky-high price of 15 soli, Klein felt that he was almost suffocating.
But after she finished speaking, she took out two friendly and lovely paper coupons from her apron, sandwiched them with the note with the order on it and handed it to him. He felt that those few lines of beautiful characters were so beautiful.
moving.
By the way, the so-called "Intis-style colorful round cakes" refer to macarons in this world, right? I've only seen them in newspapers before, so I don't know how they actually taste. Maybe he can bring Benson next time
They come here to open their eyes...
Klein, who was full of greed, stopped the imagination in his mind and nodded reservedly towards Alice.
"Then please wait a moment."
After saying that, she smiled again and left, leaving Klein sitting where he was, rubbing his hands with some uncontrollable anticipation.
After a while, Alice, who pushed the trolley back to the window seat, bowed very professionally, and then dropped her pretense of being in the service industry:
"Come, let's go to the private room."
"...You're still at work, right? Isn't it okay to be so lazy?"
Klein swore that he was definitely not worried about her, he was just giving her a kind reminder out of the standpoint of being a fellow worker.
"It doesn't matter. I'm not in the hall, so others can feel more comfortable."
As Alice said this, she pushed the trolley containing drinks and desserts through the narrow corridor, then lifted the curtain at the door of a private room and walked straight in.
Klein subconsciously turned around and noticed the gazes of several maids and waitresses who had no time to retract their gazes. Suddenly, he felt something indescribable.
But after only two seconds of silence, he felt that he had thought too much and was too lenient, so he shook his head and put aside these distracting thoughts, and followed her into the slightly dim private room.
"Wait for me...well, the switch should be here..."
After lighting up the gas lamp installed in this small independent room, Alice put down the heavy curtain at the door and made a strange gesture with her right hand - Klein can now recognize that she completed this gesture
In an instant, he successfully built a spiritual wall and sealed the room.
Now, their conversations will be protected by extraordinary power, and there is no need to worry about the risk of leakage.
...Uh, why are the gas lamps in the private room shaped like hearts?
Klein's lips twitched and he quickly looked away, simply watching Alice place the porcelain cups and dessert plates on the table one by one.
As the refreshing aroma gradually spread in the room, Klein seemed to remember something, took out a notebook from the inside of his coat, and spread it out on the table.
