It is equivalent to Texas alone fighting alone.

It is precisely because of this that Vik will reject those logistics orders that require long-distance cross-city or even cross-country, and only accept orders within the scope of Longmen City.

Vic looked at himself in the mirror with a hollow right eye socket, raised the corner of his mouth, squinted and smiled:

"Good night, V."

During Kazdel's Tower of Babel, his right eye had already lost its function and was removed by Kelsey through surgery, including the golden prosthetic eye he is using now and the color contact lens used for the other eye , also made to order at Babel.

After washing up, Vic returned to his bedroom. The mobile phone on the bedside table vibrated. Vic was taken aback and took a look.

It's a message from Texas.

[Texas: Sorry, I didn't think about it just now...]

He sat by the bed, picked up the phone with his left hand, and started typing with a smile.

[V: It's okay, Miss Texas, I don't care. 】

[Texas: ...That's good. 】

[Texas: In addition, I like the gift very much. 】

Vic's gift to Texas was a bottle of unscented hair conditioner, which can be used when wrapping ears and tails.

And what the emperor gave was a bottle of red wine that was kept in his wine cellar, it was meaningless, it was simply because he was willing.

[V: It’s fine if you like it, I’m going to rest, and Miss Texas should also rest earlier. 】

[V: Good night. 】

[Texas: Good night. 】

Volume 70: Give Me a New Life: Chapter 5 Chapter [-] Induction Party

1092 3 Month 4 Day.

am11:32.

Inner Ring of Longmen, Penguin Logistics Apartment.

[Employee file: Mostima—January 1092, 1.Note: Acting alone is not included in the category of normal Penguin logistics employees. 】

[Employee file: Can Angel—Joined on March 1092, 3. 】

[Employee file: Croissant—Joined on March 1092, 3. 】

Vic organized and filed the employee files marked with Croissant's name, and neatly put them in the file folder, juxtaposed with several people in Texas.

Angel Neng joined the job yesterday, but he was not at the apartment yesterday. Instead, he followed the Emperor outside to drink tea with an "ordinary citizen" surnamed Wei, and another "ordinary citizen" surnamed Lin was with him.

The Emperor and the others drank tea and chatted, and Vic was listening by the side, and helped pour the tea by the way. The day passed like this, so the files of Neng Angel and Croissant were left for processing today.

Ke Song just joined the job this morning. It seems that she was interviewed through the normal job search channels and then was favored by the emperor. The reason seems to be because she...is very strong?

All in all, because I just joined the job, the files were filed together with those who can be angels. If there is no accident, Texas will probably have two more players in the days to come.

Now they probably know each other downstairs...

Nothing Vic.

He only needs to do his own job well, and he doesn't need any extra interpersonal communication. Keeping a distance is one of the secrets to making social interactions full of politeness and elegance.

After all, he is just a clerical useless person who can't lift his hands or shoulders...and he won't have much intersection with Texas and the others.

Vic straightened the mask on his face, and after confirming that it showed no signs of loosening, he walked out of the archive room.

He lives on the No.17 floor, and they live downstairs in Texas, that is, on the No.16 floor. This entire apartment building, or this neighborhood is a very high-end neighborhood, all of which are on the first floor. One ladder, one household.

Their side in Texas is more similar to the staff dormitory, and Vic’s side is only going to live in him alone, after all, he still has the need to cover up his identity...

But at the same time, the floor where he lived also took on various functions such as the archives room and his own office, which can be regarded as making the best use of the entire floor of such a large space.

dong dong——

The door was knocked.

Vic was taken aback, and walked to the door. When he opened the door, he saw a bright halo, which made him squint slightly.

Is capable of angels.

Croissant stood beside her, and Texas stood behind them, seeming to be a little helpless towards the two who escaped.

"V, do you want to come down to our induction party!" Neng Angel greeted Vic with a smile on his face. "We'll be colleagues from now on, why don't we get to know each other well!"

However, Vic was keenly aware of the faint alienation hidden under her smiling mask.

Not that she's smirking or acting, but...

Compared with sincere happiness, it is more like habitually putting a smile on your face, including the performance of familiarity, and it is only more similar to a cheerful "personality habit".

Without making an analogy...

It was a bit like the squinting smirk he used to put on his face when he faced Cellinina.

"Ah..." Vic hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Cellinina who was standing behind the two. "...All right."

"Great!"

Vic nodded, picked up the key, and the angel cheered, pulling Croissant and running ahead, while Vic and Texas were about two or three steps behind them.

"...Some, lively." As if starting a chat topic, Texas spoke softly.

Vic tilted his head slightly and glanced at her.

"Yes, it seems that you will have to work hard in the days to come, Miss Texas."

"...I can't talk about it, it's just the responsibility, and I have read their files, since they are recognized as 'teammates'..."

Speaking of teammates, her words paused slightly, probably thinking of Laplande once.

"V, Texas, come quickly! The elevator has arrived!" The red-haired angel's cheerful words interrupted the conversation between Vic and Texas. Inside the elevator.

It wasn't until he walked into the elevator that Texas realized it.

Surprisingly... tacit understanding.

She glanced at the dark-haired Luper in the gray-and-white mask.

"By the way, V, where are you from?" Angel Angel asked curiously, "Did Ruper's words come from Syracuse?"

Among the four people, she, Texas, and Croissant have all known each other for a while, only this "V" Luper and the others are not very familiar with them, and they even joined the job one year earlier than her and Croissant. It's hard to say that Texas is familiar with him for more than a year.

Is it because he's... too withdrawn?

"...Yes, I was born in Syracuse." Vic responded softly.

The place of origin cannot be completely concealed, whether it is from eating habits, words of speech, gestures, etc., it can be seen to some extent.

It would be nice if there were no people in the team who knew about Syracuse, but Texas itself comes from the family and has been in Syracuse for a long time... So, instead of telling a lie that is full of loopholes, it is better Expose the truth of the three points in order to seek greater trust.

This is also the reason why the most credible lies are often [-]% true and [-]% false, or even [-]% true and [-]% false.

A partial truth is often more credible than a complete falsehood.

Texas rolled his eyes. "...What city were you born in?"

In the words of the Syracusans, it means that he has a high probability of knowing the surname "Texas"...

Will it cause trouble?

Almost subconsciously, this idea popped up in her mind.

But at the next moment, he was denied by himself laughing at himself.

It has been a year since I came to Longmen, but I still can't change the habit of subconsciously doubting others...

They have been with him for nearly two years, if it will cause trouble, it should have been revealed long ago.

Vic was silent for a moment, and spoke gently to several people. "...Feel sorry."

"Ah, it's okay, don't say it if you don't want to, we can all understand! Everyone has their own unspeakable secrets." Angel Neng laughed and smoothed things over, but didn't let the atmosphere fall into an awkward silence.

"Let's talk about something else... V, can you cook?"

"meeting..."

"That's good! In this way, the four of us can make a dish each!"

Vic glanced at the corners of his mouth, and Celinina, who had a brighter expression, also quietly raised her brows and eyes.

That's great, Cellina.

It seems that you can also make new friends.

Volume 71: Give me a new life: Chapter 6 Chapter [-]

am11:45.

Longmen Inner Ring, Penguin Logistics Apartment-No.16th Floor.

Angel, Texas, Croissant, and Vic sat on the sofa chatting.

Angel's apple pie in the oven, with croissant tarts, oh yes, and Texas pizza...  

As for what Vic is going to do...

In his own words, he "only makes desserts, so make a pastry after lunch".

In fact, the main reason is that he did not dare to make other serious and traditional Syracuse dishes. He had made these things for Cellinina thousands of times when he was in Volsini, and he was afraid that Cellinina would recall them after eating them. A sense of familiarity...thus giving his performance a crack.

In other words, among the things made by four people, only the pizza made by one person in Texas can be regarded as a serious "lunch" meal.

But it doesn't matter if she is an angel. She is a native of Sakota in Lateran, and she can eat sweets as a meal. For her, apple pie is probably equivalent to pizza, and egg tart is equivalent to... something like steamed buns Bar?

"How could there be such a strange cognition!" Energy Angel retorted with a slightly red face, raising his voice slightly. "Latlan people just like to eat desserts, but they usually eat dinner!"

——Because Croissant laughed and made a joke about "Can the people of Lateran survive only by eating desserts every day, and there is no room for other meals".

Of course, Neng Angel's rebuttal was also half-joking. With these two girls who don't know whether they are lively or eccentric, Texas's future work and life may not be too much. boring.

"So... V why are you wearing a mask all the time?" Angel Neng looked at Vic with a bit of curiosity in his eyes, and even Croissant who was beside him also looked curiously. "We are just curious, if you have any questions, you can refuse to answer them!"

Texas looked at him, too, as if worried that he might feel poked in the sore spot by the question.

"It's all right." Vic shook his head—mostly to Texas.

"It's just because my appearance is scary... Neng Angel and Croissant probably don't know about it? I'm a patient with severe Originium disease."

Vic looked at Texas with a questioning look in his eyes.

Texas caught his meaning perfectly and shook his head at him. "I didn't tell them, saying this behind their backs...it didn't feel very polite."

"Huh?!" Angel Neng and Croissant were surprised at the same time.

"Thank you, but don't worry about me, Miss Texas. In fact, I don't care too much about my status as an infected person. I just don't want to burden you." Vic nodded slightly.

"I have origin stone fragments all over my face, so I wear a mask all the time, even when I eat and eat, I am alone."

Vic explained, in exchange for Angel and Croissant being at a loss.

"Ah, that's it..." Neng Tian gently scratched his cheek with his index finger, always feeling embarrassed and guilty that he had accidentally poked someone's sore spot. "...Sorry, I shouldn't have asked that question..."

Since you are wearing a mask, there must be something hidden... why are you so careless, in order to satisfy your curiosity, poke someone's wound!

Can Angel cursed himself secretly in his heart.

"It's okay." Vic chuckled and shook his head seriously. "Don't worry about this, I'm just worried that you will be scared."

That's what I said, but in fact, it's impossible not to care at all...

Angel Angel, Croissant, and even Dexas all had such thoughts in their minds.

After all, if he really didn't care, he wouldn't have been wearing a mask all the time.
