girl knight zero

Chapter 242 Collins Dodge

On Friday, everything was ready for the Sandia expedition to the border city of Dougville, and then took a train to Leonard Province from there.

It was already night when we arrived at Dougwell, so everyone first looked for a place to rest.

After booking the hotel, Wolfe and Sharon were discussing things in the room, and the little ghosts ran out to find something to eat.

"Dougwell's pies are famous, let's try them!" suggests foodie Phoebe.

"It happens that there is a pie shop next door, which saves us walking." Kali pointed to a restaurant next to the hotel.

Everyone has a look, the signboard of the restaurant reads: Dougwell's most authentic cream caviar pie, with a history of more than 300 years!Used to be Queen Mary's favorite!
When everyone saw it, their saliva surged, so they squeezed in together.

After entering the store, everyone ordered a bunch of food, let go of their stomachs and started eating and drinking.

"By the way, the food here is really cheap." Phoebe said while eating.

"Where is it cheap? You have been tricked by Lagrange's profiteers so much that you think these dishes are cheap." Kali complained.

"Lagrange is far away from the sea of ​​stars, so the transportation cost is high, and the price is also normal." Cang Ling smiled.

"That's not true. They set such a high price because they have no competitors. Anyway, we have no choice but to admit it." Ryan said angrily.

"It's fine if you don't eat..." Charlene complained.

"It's boring to eat in the cafeteria all the time."

After eating, everyone went to check out.

At the checkout, the proprietress smiled and asked, "Are you knights?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

"Why do you say that?" Cang Ling asked.

The proprietress smiled and pointed to the table.Everyone looked back and immediately understood.

Their dishes are all neatly arranged, just like a queue, and even the handles of the cups are in the same direction.

"Although I have seen customers who like a sense of order, the only ones who put the cups so neatly are the knights." The proprietress said with a smile.

"Haha, that's what he did. This guy has obsessive-compulsive disorder." Phoebe pointed to Diego and said.

Diego gave Phoebe a sullen look.

"It seems that we have to pay attention to details in the future." After walking out of the restaurant, Cang Ling said, "Otherwise, even casual clothes won't be able to hide our identity."

"This lady boss has the potential to be a spy." Martin joked.

After the meal, the others said that it was rare for them to let the wind go, and they wanted to go out for a stroll. Cang Ling and Phoebe went back to deliver meals to Wolfe and Sharon.

When they first stepped into the lobby of the hotel, there were two men coming down the stairs. One was about 40 years old and looked like a gentleman, and the other was in his early twenties and looked very handsome.The gentleman and the young man went downstairs while chatting, and they seemed to be in a good mood.Suddenly, he noticed the person under the stairs, and when he turned his head, he showed a surprised expression. "Phoebe! Why are you here?" The gentleman stopped and looked at Phoebe in surprise.

Phoebe looked up and was stunned for an instant, her expression was the same as Wolfe's expression when he saw Prince Kadir on Rainbow Island, as if he had seen a ghost. "Phoebe, do you know each other?" Cang Ling asked curiously.Phoebe didn't answer, she just froze in place, not saying a word.

"Are you Phoebe's friends?" Seeing that Phoebe was silent, the gentleman turned his head and asked Cang Ling.

"Yes—yes, we are Phoebe's friends, we came out to play together." Cang Ling replied immediately.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Phoebe's father: Collins Dodge." The gentleman took off his hat and saluted politely.

"So you are Phoebe's father! It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Cang Ling." Cang Ling hurriedly returned the salute, but subconsciously returned the knight salute.

"I'm Kali." Kali also saluted.

"Are you here on vacation? Or on a mission?" Dodge asked with a smile.

"Phoebe, your dad asked you something." Kali kicked Phoebe from behind.

"We're here to play." Cang Ling answered first.

At this time, a few passengers walked past them dragging their suitcases and looked at them curiously.

"Why don't you come to our room and have a chat with Phoebe." Cang Ling invited Phoebe.

"Thank you, but I've got something to do later. Is that okay in the evening? I'll be back at nine." Dorian asked Phoebe.

Cang Ling and Kali turned their heads to look at Phoebe, only to see Phoebe biting her lip tightly, breathing short and fast, her eyes fixed on the stairs under her feet, as if she was desperately restraining her anger.

"Phoebe?" Cang Ling quietly pushed Phoebe.

"Go away! I don't want to see you!" Phoebe yelled suddenly, then pushed Dorian away, and ran upstairs like a fly.

Cang Ling and Kali were dumbfounded, what's going on?
They stared upstairs for a moment, then all turned to Dorian again.

Dorian's face was a bit embarrassed, he looked helplessly at the young man next to him, and said to Cang Ling: "We had some disputes at home before, I think she must still be angry with me."

Hearing this, Cang Ling suddenly remembered what Phoebe said about her family forcing her to marry a nobleman.

"Phoebe often mentions you and Mrs. Zun in front of us. She actually loves you very much. I hope you can give her more understanding and personal space." Cang Ling spoke for Phoebe.

"Although this guy is sometimes stupid, but most of the time she is a reliable person. I think she is still very independent." Kali also said.

"Thank you for your recognition of her. I am really relieved to see that she has such good friends as you. Are you still here tomorrow? Let's have dinner together!" Dorian invited warmly.

"No, we... We're going back tomorrow." Cang Ling hurriedly declined.

"Oh, that's really unfortunate. I have something to do today." Dorian shook his head regretfully.

"It's okay, there will be more opportunities in the future."

"It's true. My home is near here, Windmill City. You are welcome to visit us at any time. Sterling's door is always open for you." Dorian said with a smile.

"We will definitely go when we have time." Cang Ling nodded.

"Collins, the show is about to begin." At this time, the young man next to him reminded him in a low voice.

"Do you still have something to do? Then go get busy!" Seeing this, Cang Ling tactfully ended the topic immediately.

"Okay, then I'll excuse you. Thank you for taking care of Phoebe. It's a pleasure to meet you." Dorian said goodbye to Cang Ling and Kali politely, and walked out with the young man.

"Kali, what's going on?" Cang Ling asked, looking at Daolin's back.

"It should be—the kind of situation where it's best not to ask." Kali replied.

The two of them stood on the stairs for a while before going upstairs to Phoebe.

After entering the room, I found Phoebe huddled under the quilt, motionless.
