Coincidentally, such cases do exist.
Kiana and Mei Raiden, whom Bronya had just met, were the first examples of people who were originally in the normal dimension but became waiters in this cafe.
She thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Are you still hiring employees for this cafe?"
Chapter 4: The Vigilante Lady of Canghai City (k)
The young store manager looked suspiciously at Bronya's serious expression and asked, "What do you want?"
"Since we have requested an alliance with you, then Beloberg should station diplomatic representatives in your cafe," said Bronya.
The store manager shook his head. "First of all, I haven't agreed to your alliance request yet. Secondly, haven't I already said it? If your purpose of requesting an alliance is to revitalize Belloberg, then this cafe objectively cannot meet your needs."
"Whether you can meet my request should be determined by me, not by you, the store manager." Bronya said calmly, "Although the store manager cannot interfere too much in the world in the normal dimension, not long ago, you used various materials from other worlds to exchange for a considerable amount of Winter City shields in the lower area, and then purchased food ingredients from this planet in the upper area... right?"
The store manager narrowed his eyes slightly: "Yeah, so, do you want to use this coffee shop as a business road connecting different worlds?"
Bronya nodded: "If we want to revitalize Beloberg, the first step is to promote economic recovery as soon as possible, but..."
The store manager interrupted Bronya without hesitation: "I am not interested in listening to your grand plans for the future. This cafe is not responsible for revitalizing the national economy."
Bronya pursed her lips and said unyieldingly: "...I know, that's why I asked you, are you still hiring in your cafe?"
The young store manager raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled: "I see, you want to use the authority of the coffee shop staff, on the premise of completing the responsibilities of the staff, to use the convenience of your position to exchange resources from other worlds for your country, right?"
"I have fulfilled my duties as a shop assistant. As the store manager, I certainly have no right to blame the diligent shop assistant. At the same time, since all transactions were handled by me, there will certainly be no other impact on this cafe..."
"You get the benefits you want, and I get a new clerk. It's a win-win situation, so I have no reason to refuse - that's what you think, right?"
Bronya didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
The store manager smiled silently: "Do you know what it takes to become a clerk in my store?"
Bronya was stunned: "Conditions?"
"..." The store manager sighed deeply and suddenly turned his head to the curtain behind him, "Rita, come out for a moment."
The beautiful long-haired maid obediently lifted the kitchen door curtain and spoke in a gentle voice: "Mr. Manager, what can I do for you?"
The store manager said gently, "This customer wants to know the requirements to become a clerk in this cafe. Can we show her?"
"..." Rita's face turned slightly red, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "It's an honor."
After she finished speaking, the beautiful long-haired maid walked up to the store manager under Bronya's confused and puzzled gaze, and slowly bent down. The store manager stretched out his arms and hooked the maid's white neck.
They both closed their eyes at the same time and kissed each other deeply on the lips.
"Varied--?!?"
This time, not only Bronya's face suddenly turned red, but even Kiana and Raiden Mei who were sitting at the table showed dumbfounded expressions. The strong smell of hormones almost became a reality in everyone's eyes, and the hot tenderness and sweetness spread rapidly in the air.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. The empty cafe hall was silent, with only the lingering sounds of wet soft objects and the friction of fabrics remaining.
I don't know how much time had passed, but when Bronya, Kiana, and Raiden Mei were all feeling a little dizzy from the hot air, they parted their lips, and neither of them wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths.
The long-haired maid straightened her upper body, her charming face filled with affection and love without any guilty expression, and the store manager naturally turned his head back to the already completely petrified Bronya, with a slight smile on his face: "Please think about it carefully, every employee of this cafe is my wife. Becoming an employee of this cafe means becoming my woman - even so, do you still want someone from your Beloberg to be my employee?"
"You——" Bronya took a step back, her elegant and dignified face flushed with shame, "Shameless...Shameless!!!"
"Please understand the situation. I have never forced anyone to work as my clerk." The store manager lowered his chin with his hand, and raised the corners of his mouth exaggeratedly. "Can you call it shameless if we both agree to it? Even if you are the Great Guardian, you are meddling too much."
Bronya was frustrated by the manager's unreasonable series of attacks. She touched her forehead, probably to confirm whether she had a fever and was hallucinating.
She couldn't stand it any longer and growled, "Don't you know how to write the word shame? Even if you are a couple who are willing to do this, you shouldn't do this in front of others."
"If we are just showing off our affection, then you are right. After all, this is a cafe, a restaurant. As the manager and the staff, kissing each other in front of the customers would be considered shameless in the eyes of normal people." The manager smiled and said with a smug look on his face, "But unfortunately, first of all, this cafe is not normal; secondly, for this cafe, this kind of behavior that is considered immoral in the eyes of normal people is also considered half-business. If you can't accept these two points..."
As he was talking, the store manager shrugged his shoulders and put on a look that seemed quite regretful: "That only means that you are not destined to be with us."
Bronya's face flushed red, but she was speechless. She panted a few times and barely adjusted her chaotic breathing rhythm... She was educated by the nobility since she was a child, so she was not good at negotiating with a store manager who did not play by the rules. Every time she organized her words and prepared to explain what she wanted to say step by step, this guy would always overturn the negotiation table in a way that was almost brutal.
Last time, he directly took out a pair of guns that could burn the entire Beloberg to ashes and slammed them on the table; this time, he actually got intimate with a maid who was so beautiful that even she felt a little dazzling, right in front of everyone.
Just when Bronya was shaking with anger and didn't know how to refute, a bright ray of sunlight suddenly shone in from behind her.
The door of the cafe was opened by someone outside.
Kiana and Raiden Mei stood up suddenly, their eyes full of disbelief. Kiana almost rushed over, but she stopped the urge to rush over to the person, and sat back in her seat slowly with a slight tremor, the mist in her eyes quickly gathered.
The person looked around the hall, glanced at Mei Raiden and Kiana who were wide-eyed, tilted her head blankly, then glanced at Bronya who was blushing and had raised eyebrows, and the corner of her mouth suddenly curled up: "It seems that I came at the wrong time?"
"Yeah, this is terrible timing." The store manager raised his eyes, glanced at the visitor's face, and suddenly covered his face with his hands, letting out a long sigh through his fingers, "Let me make it clear in advance that this is a coffee shop and we don't provide alcohol to customers."
"It's okay, it's okay. I just came here for breakfast... No, it can be considered lunch if you consider the time."
Hahaha, the man laughed heartily and walked in as if he was oblivious to the weird atmosphere in the hall.
"Lunch?" Bronya was startled and quickly glanced at the sky outside the door. "Oops... I stayed in the cafe for too long!"
She turned around first, subconsciously wanting to leave quickly, but the moment before she took a step, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have not paid the bill yet, so she turned back hurriedly, took out her wallet, and placed a Winter City Shield on the bar.
...It seemed that it was not enough. She glanced at the number of Winter City shields, thought about it, and then immediately took off the earring on her right ear.
"You don't have a credit account, so I'll leave this here as collateral for you. I'll exchange it for the same amount of Winter City shields for you later, and then you can return it to me."
"Huh?" The manager was stunned.
"I go first."
After saying that, without waiting for the manager to stop her, Bronya hurried out of the door of the cafe and passed by the people who walked into the hall.
When she passed by Bronya who was running out of the door, the visitor peeked at her still slightly rosy face. She pulled the corner of her mouth, smiled silently, and focused her teasing gaze on the store manager's eyes: "You teased another little girl again? In front of Rita?"
The store manager, who was looking at the earrings with a tangled face, couldn't help but roll his eyes at the visitor and said sinisterly, "Think about it carefully. It seems a bit inappropriate for a coffee shop like mine to allow customers to bring their own alcohol. How about putting a sign on each table that prohibits bringing your own alcohol to prevent some people from bringing their bad habit of alcoholism to my coffee shop."
The visitor's eyes widened. She shook her flaming ponytail and said angrily, "Hey, hey, hey, you're going too far! I'm just stating a fact! Is it necessary to target my only life value like this?"
"Then your life value is really cheap."
The manager picked up the earrings, hesitated for a moment, and finally put them in the drawer of the bar.
After doing all this, he wiped the tears from the corners of his mouth and said faintly, "And I remember you announced some time ago that you would quit drinking. Why did you pick up this bad habit again? Did you change your mind?"
"Alas, it's a different time now. I had to maintain my rationality and thinking at that time. How could I just use alcohol to numb my mind?" The man showed an embarrassed expression, shook his hands, and his eyes were filled with tenderness. "If you want to talk about changing your mind, haven't you changed more than me? A traveler who travels through countless worlds actually opened a coffee shop peacefully. To be honest, when you told me that you wanted to open a shop, I thought you had a fever."
"What kind of restless image do I have in your mind?" The store manager squinted at the visitor with a frown on his face.
"Hmm..." The man hesitated and said tentatively, "You are a bad guy who takes advantage of the beautiful girl's sleep to peek into someone else's belly in the middle of the night?"
"It's really hard for you to describe being drunk and unconscious lying on the sofa in the living room with your belly exposed as so refreshing and refined..."
"Hey~☆?"
"What the hell are you doing?" The store manager raised his head and glanced at the clock on the wall. "Are you free this afternoon?"
The visitor raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Why? You are finally feeling amorous. Do you want to ask Big Sister out on a date?"
The store manager rolled his eyes at the newcomer and said, "Are you sure you want to call yourself a big sister in front of me?"
The visitor's expression froze visibly, and her eyes wandered: "Hey, hey, for someone like you, how can age be so important? Shouldn't appearance be important?"
The store manager looked at the visitor as if he were a fool: "Do you think you look older than me?"
The visitor could no longer hold back and put on a grinning expression: "Is it not okay for me to praise you for your youth? Can't you just go along with me a little?"
The store manager smiled disdainfully and commented sharply: "He is both a bad cook and a playful person."
The man rushed over the bar in a rage, grabbed the manager's face, and said through gritted teeth: "What did you say?"
“Mmmmm——jingzhibaoli (no violence)——!!!”
Looking at the visitor and the store manager fighting with each other, Kiana and Raiden Mei were suddenly in a trance.
They hadn't realized it before, but when the store manager and their teacher's 'isotope' rolled together, they suddenly discovered that the store manager's various characteristics... looked just like their teacher's younger brother.
"Manager... Captain... Manager... Captain... Manager of Hyperion Café, Captain Hyperion..." Mei Raiden repeated these words in a low voice, and suddenly felt a flash of thunder in her brain.
Could it be that the true identity of this store manager is the isotope of Teacher Ji Zi in the Quantum Sea?
Just then, the man finally let go of the store manager's face.
She pulled over a bar stool sullenly, glared at the manager, and when she saw the manager's red cheeks, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The store manager rubbed his cheek with a bitter face and glared back at the visitor, but soon softened again: "How's the situation over there?"
"What else can I do? Of course I'm unemployed." The newcomer leaned over the bar and playfully stuck out his tongue at the store manager. "You know, on that day of the cycle, I slapped my boss hard before I quit my job as a vigilante. Anyway, it's fate... I probably can't go back. As for other companies, few dare to hire someone like me who slaps his boss on the spot. The lovely and pitiful Himeko Muryota is completely at the end of her rope~"
Chapter 4 Wuliangta Jizi, years old, is a girl (k)
Hearing the name "Murata Himeko" clearly called out by the visitor, Kiana, who was sitting by the window, couldn't help but tremble slightly all over. She lowered her head tightly, the shadow of her bangs covering her face, and her pearly teeth almost bit her lower lip to make it bleed.
Mei Raiden couldn't help but show a worried expression to Kiana.
The young store manager was silent for a long time, then he exhaled a slightly annoyed air: "...I owe you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a heavy blow hit the manager's forehead without any warning.
8ｒ6：９7Ｍ4ｃｕ2ｇ5ａＫ0ｔ2＇1妍!!希;?!;①??群,：."8?3",7':7:;8:3;.8,5:.3姬子凌空举着右手，嘴角微掀：“我怎么不知道，你还是个完全开不起玩笑的人？好歹我也是在高中之前就连跳四级的高材生，你就不能对我有点信心吗？”
The store manager rubbed his forehead which was tapped by Ji Zi's fingertips, and shook his head with a dumb smile.
"It's true that you are an excellent student, but with your personality, after you have a concrete understanding of the world you live in, can you continue to stay in that tiny place peacefully?"
Ji Zi shook her head and pretended to be thinking deeply, then suddenly smiled and said, "I guess not."
"What are your plans for the future?" the store manager asked in a gentle tone.
Obviously, he looked younger, but when he said this, he expressed concern like an elder.
And in fact, this is indeed the case. Although they would subconsciously ignore the age difference between the two parties when playing, in terms of life experience, Ji Zi, who has only been an adult for less than two years, has to admit that this "young" store manager who has been traveling in the quantum sea for who knows how long, is the one who is more like an "elder".
Hearing the gentle tone of the store manager, Ji Zi showed a somewhat obedient expression for the first time: "When the Tianming Space Base began to recruit astronauts to live in the space station for a long time, I signed up almost immediately. In the first 19 years of my life, my biggest goal in life was to become a person like my father."
As she spoke, Ji Zi's mouth suddenly raised a bitter arc: "It's a pity that I didn't know at that time that this life goal was an impossible dream from the beginning."
"..."
The young store manager did not say anything, but just listened quietly to the story that Ji Zi had told more than once.
The world bubble where Ji Zi lives in front of us can be said to be a very special world bubble for many employees in this cafe.
The story between the store manager and Yuexia started with this world bubble, and the store manager's journey in the quantum sea also ended in this world bubble.
In terms of size alone, this world bubble, which is only the size of a city area, is actually not very big. When the store manager was still traveling around in the quantum sea, he had seen world bubbles larger than this one more than once.
However, since this world bubble almost completely replicates the real "Canghai City" in the real world, as a miniature projection of "Canghai City", it also inherits almost all the technical conditions from destiny.
These technical capabilities are reflected in many aspects.
For example, the cloning technology of Moonlight Oath was used to create Theresa, who was injected with corrosive power instead of Vishnu's super-mutation factor in her body.
Another example is the aviation technology that sent the destined physicists, Ryusuke Muryota and Walter Young, out of the atmosphere.
Although the store manager didn't know why Old Yang in this world, who clearly inherited Walter's name, still became a physicist of destiny, and even died in space...
But no matter what, with this world bubble being only the size of a city, even if the natives in the world bubble try to extend their exploration into space, the final result will be nothing more than spinning around in circles at the edge of the world like a headless fly.
"--Fortunately, I met you at this time." Ji Zi looked directly into the store manager's eyes, supporting her face with her hands. "If I hadn't met the store manager and learned that there are other worlds outside this world, I would probably have spent the rest of my life in a daze, paralyzed by alcohol."
The store manager smiled silently: "If you are still a little confused about how to spend the rest of your life, are you interested in coming to my cafe?"
Kiana opened her tearful eyes wide, and Raiden Mei also opened her mouth slightly, petrified on the spot.
Becoming a waiter in this cafe means becoming my woman - just a few minutes ago, when they faced Bronya in military uniform, they heard the young manager say this.
A few minutes later, the young store manager suddenly invited their teacher to be his clerk.
Of course, they all knew that this was not their teacher himself, but a "homologue from a different world"... But from the bottom of their hearts, whether it was Kiana or Raiden Mei, the moment they saw that face, in their minds, they almost instinctively placed the other party in the position of "elder".
Ji Zi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Sir, are you planning to take advantage of your former subordinate?"
The store manager raised his eyebrows and snorted, "If you're afraid of being exploited by me, don't get drunk right under my nose, so that I don't have to carry you back in the middle of the night."
"Well, that was just an accident!" Ji Zi was a little embarrassed, "That was my first time drinking red wine. How could I know that its alcohol content would be so much higher than beer!"
"Don't you drink beer from one can?"
"Hey, why do you always expose my shortcomings? Drinking capacity can be trained." Ji Zi showed a dissatisfied expression, "You are actually older than me, but you really don't understand adult romance at all."
"Only little brats would regard drinking as a sign of maturity..." the store manager said earnestly, "I know you might think I'm nagging you, but listen to my advice. Drinking is bad for your health after all. You're only 19 years old now, and you still have plenty of time to enjoy. Besides, didn't you quit drinking some time ago? Why did you suddenly get back into this bad habit?"
Ji Zi said a little shyly: "It's just that I suddenly felt that the feeling of intoxication seemed quite comfortable..."
"...Oh, forget it. As long as you control your drinking and don't get sick, it's up to you." The store manager couldn't help but sigh tiredly, and then looked at Ji Zi's smirking face again, "You deliberately changed the subject. Haven't you made a decision yet, so you can't give me a definite answer?"
