It turns out that the duke is not human

Chapter 323 323
SPQR, in front of the gate of Crescent Travel Agency.

In the cold alley without the noise of the street, Shu Shu, wearing a large black down jacket and a red scarf, stood in front of the closed gate of the travel agency.

White snowflakes fell from the sky, one by one, sticking to the black down jacket, and then quickly melted away.

Why is the door not open today?Shu Shu frowned and stared at the door thinking.

Although Luna was blocked, except for Luna First Academy, the lives of residents in several cities on Luna were not restricted, and they were free to go out.

Only the tourists who travel in Luna are unlucky, they are forced to stay in Luna, and they don't know when they will be able to leave.However, the government gave corresponding subsidies, and the tourists were basically appeased.

According to the current situation, even if there are no new tourists arriving at Luna for the time being, the business of the travel agency will still not be bad.

After all, it is impossible for stranded tourists to stay in the hotel all day. Travel agencies have a wealth of one-day tours for tourists to choose from.

Why do you close the door when you can open it to make money?
Shu Shu expressed her deep puzzlement, she could open the door to make money.

But it is not easy for her to contact the Duke or Arnold now.After all, she should be in Serena now, not Luna.

Exhaling a mouthful of white mist, Shu Shu looked up at the snowflakes dancing in the wind, pulled up the hood of her down jacket, turned and walked towards the street.

Walking on the bustling streets of SPQR for a while, looking at the dazzling lights on the street and the dazzling decorations in the windows on both sides of the street, Shu Shu suddenly felt that Christmas in SPQR was quite an interesting festival.

His Excellency the Duke said that this is a festival in ancient times. SPQR has recreated the festival based on research by historians and archaeologists.

Although many details have been overwhelmed by the long flow of history, the overall atmosphere of Christmas should be preserved.

Shu Shu's eyes were attracted by the dazzling windows, she subconsciously slowed down and passed by each window.

"hungry?"

Suddenly, Shu Shu heard a familiar chuckle coming from behind.

She turned around suddenly, and saw a handsome man standing behind her at some point.

The golden hair, which is close to silver, looks like ears of wheat under the warm yellow street lamp, covered with crystal clear snowflakes.

The girl in the black down jacket is reflected in the light blue eyes, and the corners of the mouth are slightly raised to outline a beautiful arc.

He was wearing a straight black double-breasted long coat with a warm white high collar protruding from the collar of the coat. His hands were in the left and right pockets of the coat.

"Master Duke!" Shu Shu shouted with wide eyes in surprise.

Her voice was a little loud, and passers-by around turned their heads to look this way.

Seeing the gazes of the strangers around her, Shu Shu stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

She was just so excited that she couldn't control herself for a moment.

Simon didn't care about the gazes around him. He raised his right hand and pointed his index finger at the window behind Shu Shu and asked, "You were looking at that just now?"

Shu Shu froze for a moment, she followed Simon's fingers.

She had been so focused on the Christmas decorations that she hadn't noticed it was a bakery.

There is a Christmas tree-shaped bread in the window, surrounded by house-shaped bread, and red and green Christmas decorations.

It seems that the entire central square has been shrunk down into this window. Shu Shu was attracted by this just now, and she didn't even realize that the house and Christmas tree are made of bread of different shapes.

"Every Christmas, this bakery will produce a special kind of cake. Basically, SPQR residents and tourists will come here to buy it. Over time, people call it Christmas cake." Simon pointed to a floating cake above the mini central plaza. Cakes placed on shelves in mid-air.

It was the first time Shu Shu heard that there was such a Christmas cake, and she felt extremely ashamed.

She obviously works at Xinyue Travel Agency, but she doesn't even know about this. She is really remiss.

It's all the teacher's fault. She insisted on participating in the freshman competition, and she didn't have time to carefully read the Christmas-related strategies.

Through the reflection of the window glass, Simon saw the annoyed expression on Shu Shu's chubby little face. Although he didn't understand why she showed such an expression, he didn't ask further.

After all, meddling is not in his character.

"Would you like to try that cake?" Simon asked pretending he didn't see anything.

Shu Shu blinked her eyes, hesitated for a second, then nodded and said, "Yes!"

So the two entered the bakery, only then did Shu Shu realize that there were many people standing in the bakery, and the bakery was really big.

There are all kinds of bread on the shelves, some are salty, some are sweet, some are spicy, some are buttered, some are stuffed and so on.

All kinds of bread make people dizzy.

Simon took Shu Shu up to the second floor, which was a coffee shop opened by the owner of the bakery.

Customers who buy bread on the first floor can choose to go upstairs to enjoy it immediately or take it home. Of course, they can also go upstairs to order food.

Compared with the first floor, there are significantly fewer people on the second floor.

Shu Shu thought for a while, and immediately understood the reason.

There is still some time before lunch time, and it is a weekday morning, so there will not be too many people coming to the coffee shop, and the people who buy bread downstairs should be planning to buy it back for lunch or dinner.

They found a seat by the window and sat down.

Simon skillfully ordered two pieces of Christmas cakes and two cups of hot drinks, then looked at Shu Shu with her cheeks on her hands and smiled, "Didn't you say it would take a few days to come back?"

"Mr. Xiao asked me to rush back last night." Shu Shu said with a frustrated face.

For Xiao Tingyuan, who is the one who takes the blame, Shu Shu has no burden at all.

Compared to this, Shu Shu felt that lying to the Duke was the greatest sin.

After hearing Shu Shu's words, Simon immediately thought of Xiao Tingyuan who came back suddenly last night and Xiao Sheng who was with him.

At that time, Luna had been blocked by the military, and the starship could not land on Luna, so they had to resort to extraordinary means.

And the little girl in front of him seemed to know a lot of extraordinary tricks, he could understand that she came back with her to send Xiao Tingyuan and Xiao Sheng to Luna.

Seeing Simon's light blue eyes staring at her, Shu Shu felt a little nervous. She looked out the window and asked casually, "Why didn't the travel agency open today?"

"You have already asked for leave, and there will be no one in the travel agency." Simon said half-jokingly, half-seriously.

Shu Shu froze for a moment, and it took a while to understand what he meant.

The new businesses of the travel agency were all developed by Shu Shu, and no one except her knew how to change the AI ​​written by her, not even Paul.

　A bit stuck today...
