Shen Qi and Ines came to the cafeteria and found it empty.

"It's half past six. Do all the operators in Rhodes Island get up so late?" Shen Qi looked at the empty seat. In college, Shen Qi kept the habit of getting up at six o'clock every day, but after graduation, he chose to be lazy - getting up after eight o'clock every day and submitting articles to writing platforms in a daze.

Now that he has come to Rhode Island, his daily routine has changed again.

"I, or rather Inès, have recorded the work and rest habits of each operator in Rhodes Island: the operators come to the cafeteria to eat between 7 and 7:30 on average." Inès replied.

"I see." Shen Qi yawned loudly, "Maybe I got up too early before."

Shen Qi bought some food and wasted only 300 merits. Ines bought a standard breakfast and they sat down by the window.

"In the future, you should do morning exercises instead of playing games." Ines pointed at Shen Qi with chopsticks, "This will help improve your physical fitness."

Shen Qi himself knew that the reason why he had such great power now was purely due to the weapons and props provided by the system. His physical strength was still in a critical condition, so perhaps morning exercises should be put on the agenda.

"One more thing." Inès said suddenly, "Have you considered staying in Longmen for two days?"

"Ah?" Shen Qi was confused, "Do I still have a chance to go to Longmen?"

"There haven't been many things going on in Rhodes Island lately, and you as a new operator have even less to do. The doctor said you could go to Lungmen for a while and get familiar with the place."

"Yes, I have never been to Longmen." Shen Qi said, "But as a mercenary, why did Rhodes Island give me such an opportunity?"

"Mercenaries are also operators, and going to Longmen this time is purely based on your willingness. Rhodes Island did not forcibly interfere with your schedule."

"Then how does the doctor know that I have never been to Longmen?"

"According to your file, you have lived in Kazdel, Iberia, and two cities in Yan Country. In fact, you have never been anywhere except Rhodes Island." Ines waved her hand helplessly, "You can leave for Longmen this afternoon, and Penguin Logistics will arrange your accommodation."

"When did Penguin Logistics become so good?"

"Rhodes Island has always had close contact with Penguin Logistics, so they will provide you with some convenience. In addition, Texas, as the Penguin Logistics liaison officer in Rhodes Island, will take you to Longmen."

When Shen Qi heard the name Texas, his soul instantly flew away.

"Ah? Texas! Oh oh oh oh oh..." Shen Qi immediately felt credible, "I have to go now. There's a chance to be close to Texas."

Shen Qi didn't want to eat anymore. He stamped his feet excitedly, his eyes wandering, and his right hand gradually moved to that part, preparing to...

"Watch your words and actions." Ines grabbed Shen Qi's right hand, "You dare to disturb here, are you crazy?"

Shen Qi quickly put his hands away, but his face was still red.

"However, I will not accompany you to Longmen this time." Inès put down her chopsticks. "I still need to stay in Rhodes Island and be ready to accept Rhodes Island's commission at any time. Therefore, I will contact you in the form of a terminal."

"That's fine." Shen Qi didn't complain, "Based on my strength, it shouldn't be like that in Longmen."

"Indeed, your strength will not be as good as it is in Longmen. As for how badly you will be injured, it is hard to say." Ines said, "Therefore, I will give you something before you leave."

"Wow, it's really a good system!"

Ines placed her right hand on Shen Qi's eyes. Shen Qi only saw two lines of words appear on his retina:

[Option 1: Obtain a set of primary nanomachines that can enhance your fist output and body defense.]

[Choose 2, get a pistol with a random ability. ]

After 2 seconds of careful consideration, Shen Qi hesitantly chose option .

"It's okay, I just like opening blind boxes, I'll choose two!"

Ines moved her right hand away and snapped her fingers. An exquisite pistol appeared in Shen Qi's right hand. Shen Qi quickly checked its introduction:

[Item Name: "Whisper"

Excellent quality

Durability: Medium

Learnable skills: Deadly Brilliance, Perfect Ending

Magazine capacity: 4

Grade: 1/30

Introduction: This looks like an ordinary pistol, but the fourth attack will always produce a critical hit. 】

"Why does this pistol look so familiar?"

"It doesn't matter. Here is the pistol you chose." Inès stood up. "Come to the second floor at 2 pm. Texas will be waiting for you here."

"Okay, I definitely won't be late!" Shen Qi immediately became excited.

Ines sighed and snapped her fingers again, and a bar of loose chocolate appeared in Shen Qi's hand.

"Hungry guy, give me a Snickers!"

------------

At 1:30 in the afternoon, Shen Qi came to the second floor with a bag on his back. In order not to be late and disappoint Texas, he arrived half an hour early.

Of course, he also treated the book "How to Conquer Texas" as a treasure and put it in his bag.

Ten minutes later, Miss Rupert slowly walked up from the first floor - she also arrived very early.

"It's been a thousand years, we meet again." Texas greeted Shen Qi, and Shen Qi suppressed his pride and said "Hello" in a calm manner.

"The car is waiting outside. I will take you to Longmen now." Texas took Shen Qiqian without any extra expression.

Shen Qi felt so happy when he thought about riding in the same car with Texas.

He quickly followed Texas and came to the deck. An off-road vehicle with the Penguin Logistics logo had been parked below the deck for a long time.

Shen Qi followed Texas and got into the SUV.

"You sit in the co-pilot seat." Texas pointed to the co-pilot seat.

"Then you..." Shen Qi didn't know where Texas should sit.

"I'll drive."

"Ah? Well, then it's okay."

As soon as Shen Qi sat in the co-pilot seat, he received a message from the system:

[It seems that you have successfully left her with an innocent impression. ]

"It seems like that."

[But when you were fighting Javi in ​​the training ground, she thought you were a bit immature.]

"Ah, then I am finished, right?"

[It's okay. Let's see how you perform later. ]

Shen Qi said nothing more and ended the conversation. She looked towards Texas, but she was concentrating on driving and didn't notice. The wind at two o'clock in the afternoon blew across their cheeks, as if corresponding to all the ambiguous repetitions and the return journey to the starry sky and the sea.

Ahem! Enough already!
