Saiyan stowaways on the Ark

However, near the entrance, there is a popular cold drink stall with a large flow of people.

The person soliciting customers is dressed in a thick, sturdy stag beetle skin suit. The cartoonish image covered in black and white spots looks particularly cute. The person cooking the cold drinks is dressed in a snow-white Ursus beetle skin suit. Although the appearance is somewhat fierce, the apron he wears creates a striking contrast.

However, in this weather, they looked just as hot and stuffy as the other staff members who played the mascots.

Surprisingly, although the two were wearing very bulky and stuffy leather suits, one of them was very agile in waving his hands back and forth to attract attention, while the other was exceptionally fast at processing orders, serving them almost as soon as the other person said what they wanted to eat.

This may also be why they have so many customers here, since no one likes to wait in line on a hot day. While queuing to buy tickets earlier, it seemed that some people subconsciously tried to get closer to Froststar because of the cool air emanating from her, but they were all driven away by Tomat's constantly wagging tail, which was like shooing away flies.

"A serving of creamy ice cream."

"Same, but add four more balls. If you can't build a stack, then forget it."

The two ordered after a tall, heavily dressed man in front of them left with three servings of shaved ice.

The stall owner and chef, who hadn't seen Tomat and Frostnova earlier because of the man's obstruction, were stunned when their eyes met through the leather suits.

The chef, dressed in Ursus beast skin, and the stall owner, dressed in Plume beast skin, looked at each other. The latter nodded, and the former immediately began making ice cream.

It's as if that moment of hesitation never existed.

"Here's your ice cream, please handle it carefully, it's easy to spill."

"By the way, sir/madam, would you like to take a photo together? If you take a picture with our ice cream stand in your hand, you can enjoy a 50% discount!"

The chef handed the ice cream to Tomat and Frostnova with his hairy hands, but just as they were about to pay, the stall owner next to them reminded them in a muffled voice.

Although I don't really need the money, getting a 50% discount by taking a photo is a pretty good deal.

"I'm a little curious why the dairy industry always uses Fengti as a brand ambassador, and sometimes even the sales staff are Fengti."

"...Are you telling dirty jokes?"

"No, I was just curious."

After taking the photo, the two left with their respective ice creams, chatting casually as they headed deeper into the amusement park. However, the customers behind them whispered amongst themselves, somewhat puzzled:

"Boss, why didn't you mention the discount before?"

But the stall owner overheard these whispers through the leather case and loudly retorted:

"Discount? What discount? It's just a friendly price for acquaintances!"

Then, unusually, it stopped its soliciting activities, seemingly retracting both arms inside its leather case into its body.

If you have experience working in a leather case like this, you'll definitely be able to tell that the stall owner is using a mobile phone.

It opened a previously taken photo of Tomat and Frostnova, then sent it to all its contacts with the note:

"Look what I see!"

"hiss--"

The doctor, standing on the beach, glanced at his communicator that had just rung.

Then it made the sound above.

The message seemed to exude a chilling aura, causing him to involuntarily gasp.

Her gloved fingers quickly selected an image that wasn't the sender's on the communicator, tapped it a few times, typed "Good luck," and then immediately put it away.

"Doctor, what's wrong?"

The young girl from Cats, wearing beach sandals, left tiny footprints in the sand.

Seeing the Doctor frantically checking his phone and calling out to him, it was Amiya who had just returned from the beach food competition.

She has now changed out of the oversized Rhodes Island uniform and plaid skirt that she usually wears in front of everyone.

Instead, she put on a cute beach outfit that better showcased her youthful charm.

While off-the-shoulder tops and denim shorts highlight youthful energy, they also carry a slightly naive and conservative feel. Even the infection detection device has been replaced with a more visually appealing leg ring design.

The shapely figure of that young girl evokes a more instinctive desire to protect her than a budding flower or an unripe fruit waiting to be picked.

She carried a small bag with the Rhodes Island logo and handed the still-cold drink inside to the Doctor.

As the sea breeze blew along the shore, he adjusted his straw hat, adorned with flowers from the shore, and continued to ask:

"Is it too hot? Doctor, you can change into some more suitable clothes."

"It's nothing, just that an operator has made some encouraging progress in their interpersonal relationships..."

The doctor stood upright on the shore, his arms around his waist. Although he uttered words that he claimed to be "gratified," he did not look relaxed at all. The way he looked at the waves from under his hood, which obscured his face, made it clear that he was preoccupied with something.

"That's certainly something to be happy about, but which operator is it?"

Amiya suddenly took the Doctor's hand, and without caring that her clothes would get covered in grit, she sat down and made the Doctor, like herself, stop staring into the distance in that stiff posture.

"...Tomat."

The Doctor, who sat down as usual, also answered Amiya's question.

"Oh, this..."

Amiya, upon hearing the Doctor's response, momentarily gave an awkward smile and turned her gaze into the distance.

To be honest, it's something to be happy about. After all, it's a good thing that the operators are in good physical and mental condition and have good interpersonal relationships. Whether you're their colleague, friend, or considering Rhodes Island, it's a good thing.

To be honest, when it comes to Tomat, there are some unnecessary worries.

"Is the doctor looking somewhat worried because of this?"

"No...it's something else."

When Amiya asked him what was wrong, the Doctor held the cold drink up to his forehead through his hood while looking back at the beach behind him.

If you go in that direction, you'll reach the main street.

"By the way, where is Dr. Kal'tsit? Does she still not like being in this kind of atmosphere?"

Amiya's ears twitched in the wind, and she only then noticed that Kal'tsit was nowhere to be seen nearby.

Although Rhodes Island was on vacation and she could run into her almost every few steps in the vicinity, she found it very strange that the Doctor was now without a single bodyguard, and even Kal'tsit, who had come with her, was nowhere to be found.

"It's about Kal'tsit... I suspect she's angry."

The doctor's tone wasn't very certain, but you could hear a lot of worry in it.

"Doesn't the professor often make her angry?"

"what?"

"Ah, no, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, Dr. Kal'tsit wouldn't just abandon the protection of the Doctor's personal safety because of her personal feelings. After all, there don't seem to be many operators around here. The instructors are either sunbathing somewhere else or shopping..."

Amiya emphasized this because Siesta's beaches are long enough that it would be a waste to simply use them as tourist attractions without any planning.

That's why we allocated many activity areas with different functions.

This includes vendors' sales points and competition areas for tourists to participate in—limited to culinary competitions, of course.

Amiya temporarily left the Doctor and Kal'tsit to help support the operators who went to participate in the cooking competition.

Incidentally, Rhine Lab is currently waging a barbecue war against the Yan cuisine of Nianhexi.

The Ursus Student Self-Government Group, on the other hand, competed with Broken Bones and Misha using Ursus cuisine.

As for activity areas like beach volleyball, they are located in other places, where many operators use competitions to liberate themselves.

The area where the doctor is located is simply a tourist area where people can freely play in the sand, swim, or sunbathe.

Many Rhodes Island operators and instructors were relaxing in this area, but because the beach was so wide, they were all very spread out unless they deliberately gathered together.

However, not being easily disturbed is an advantage, but relatively speaking, if the doctor is targeted, providing support may be somewhat inconvenient.

Because the cooking scene in the arena was too intense, Amiya returned before she could offer much help. Helping either side would be considered favoritism, so she chose not to participate actively. After bringing them some water, she returned to where the Doctor and the others were.

But in such a short time, Kal'tsit disappeared. It's impossible that the two of them had a big fight in such a short time.

If she hadn't returned so early, the Doctor might still be standing here alone, lost in thought.

"So... what happened before? We finally got to go out and have fun together, why would Dr. Kal'tsit be angry?"

Amiya, thinking that perhaps something serious was really happening that Kal'tsit had to leave, asked the somewhat evasive Doctor again.

"There are some things that are not suitable for a child like you to understand."

But the Doctor avoided Amiya's question with a serious tone.

"Doctor, I don't want to be treated like a child. Perhaps it is because of my age, but I feel that I have proven myself more than once that I can face the things that other operators have faced."

Amiya looked at the Doctor with unwavering eyes.

Something that could cause Kal'tsit and the Doctor to disagree in what should have been a relaxed and pleasant environment.

Did they have a debate about local ores disease?

After all, this place has a serious lack of understanding of Oripathy, and its tolerant attitude towards infected people is basically based on the premise of "complete ignorance". It is not impossible for some discussions or even disputes to occur.

"Alright, Amiya, since you insist, I'll tell you then. Actually... I..."

Looking into Amiya's resolute gaze, the Doctor took a deep breath, composed himself, and then slowly said:

"I chatted with a Felin on the beach earlier, in front of Kal'tsit..."

[Main Text] Siesta's Hottest Holiday: Chapter Fifteen Two Cats

"That's...that's it?"

"What else can we do! How was I supposed to know she'd get jealous so easily!"

According to the doctor, when he was buying drinks on the beach, he ran into a woman in silver hot pants who was curvy, hot, beautiful, and articulate.

The other party even bought him a drink.

The sudden conversation was hard for the doctor to refuse, so he put the matter of buying drinks out of his mind and started chatting while drinking.

Until the doctor felt a piercing gaze coming from behind him.

—That was Kal'tsit, who had been watching the Doctor intently outside the beverage bar for who knows how long.

"Miss, I think we need to find a suitable place to talk."
