But Chuhua still has something to ask.

"Where is this 'old place'?"

"It doesn't matter if uika has never been there. I'll take you there when the time comes." Xiangzi knew that Chuhua had never participated in the board of directors' dinner, so she had to take the other party.

"Can't you just tell me the exact location?"

Although Chuhua was very happy to be led by Xiangzi, he was also a little curious as to why Xiangzi couldn't give him coordinates so that he could find that "old place".

"Emmmm, you'll know when the time comes." The others in the group said vaguely.

……

The lunch break arrived quickly, although Chu Hua felt that these hours seemed as long as several years.

But when there was a knock on the office door, Chu Hua still rushed over quickly and opened the door for the other party personally.

The person had beautiful long light blue hair and bright eyes that shone like gold.

It was Xiangzi.

"How's the work going?" Although he came to invite Chuhua to participate in team building, Xiangzi still acted like a big leader coming to inspect.

Chu Hua was a little confused about the other party's intention, so he could only answer tentatively: "Uh, perfect?"

"You didn't slack off today, did you?" Xiangzi reached out and held Chuhua's cheek, rubbed it, and said with a smile.

"He was just teasing me, scaring me..." Chu Hua thought quietly in his heart, and then whispered to Xiangzi, "Of course not."

"But Mutsumi said last time that she caught you eating snacks in the office~" Xiangzi let go of Chuhua and tried to squeeze into the room, "How about I come and check it out too?"

How could Liu 〦 still be snitching? Chu Hua wanted to cry but had no tears. She quickly pushed Xiangzi out: "Aren't we going to eat? It would be bad to keep others waiting for a long time."

……

Riding in Xiangzi's car, we drove out of the city and into the suburban fields. The wheels gradually sank into the half-man-high grass.

Chu Hua looked out the window and saw that the grass seemed to be very resilient and would not fall over after being run over by the wheels.

"Aren't we going to eat out? Why are we leaving the city?" Chu Hua asked in confusion.

"After all, the place we are going to is not in Tokyo, and the use of all teleportation technologies is strictly prohibited in the city." Xiangzi answered casually.

"?" Chu Hua felt that he didn't understand what he just said, "Not in Tokyo?"

After walking some distance out of the city, Xiangzi took out a small card from his pocket and inserted it into a slot on the car.

The surrounding scene suddenly changed. The blue sky, white clouds and green grass disappeared in an instant, replaced by a dark purple starry sky and a cement road painted with blood red paint.

"What is this place?" Chu Hua was stunned when he saw this scene.

"The dimensional restaurant called Ring is located in the gap between the latitudes," Xiangzi replied. "It can provide some delicious foods that cannot be tasted in Tokyo."

Why does it feel like things are starting to develop in a strange direction... Chu Hua complained in his heart.

This strange place actually has an underground parking lot. In addition to cars and large cargo ships, there are also many vehicles that Chu Hua has never seen before.

For example, fighter planes, brooms, dragons, flying saucers, eight-legged Pegasus, giant insects...

I suddenly felt that I was very low-key.

After finding a parking space in the underground parking lot, Xiangzi started to take Chuhua into the restaurant.

The decoration here gives people a sense of simplicity and elegance.

The stone walls and Gothic style really do look like the kind of building you’d find in a magic movie.

The receptionist at the restaurant is a pretty older sister with short black hair.

"Ms. Rinrinko, I've reserved a private room." Xiangzi went up to her and started chatting with her. "By the way, can you help the person next to me get a membership card?"

"Okay." The sister called Rinrinko took out a camera that looked quite old-fashioned to Chuhua and took a picture. Then a brand new membership card was made.

"So I have to have this to come here?" Chu Hua held up his membership card and took a look. He felt that there was nothing special about it. It was just a card with his photo printed on it, and he didn't even have his name written on it.

"After all, this is a members-only restaurant~" Xiangzi pulled Chuhua towards the private room upstairs.

"By the way, remember to wear this." Xiangzi suddenly took out something and handed it to Chuhua.

"What is this?" Chu Hua took it and found it was a mask.

Looking up, Xiangzi also put on a mask. "There are quite a few people coming here, so it's better to hide it. I have quite a few enemies around the world."

Hearing this, Chu Hua quickly put on a mask. Although she didn't have many enemies, it would be quite troublesome if she was recognized as a director of the Mujica Group.

On the way to the private room on the second floor, Chu Hua could see the bustling hall on the first floor of the restaurant.

"Continued Cup!"

"Listen to me, last time..."

"You blow it!"

It was filled with simple wooden dining tables and chairs, and many people were drinking and shouting inside, making it very noisy.

"Those people are mercenaries." Chu Hua suddenly heard Xiangzi introducing himself. "This place was originally the student cafeteria of Yuezhisen. Later, the school felt that it was too wasteful to give it to poor students, so they used it to generate income. Gradually, it became a traditional gathering place for mercenaries."

"Oh - so it's like a guild in anime about another world?" Chu Hua said as if he suddenly understood something.

"That's true, but nowadays there are actually few mercenaries willing to take missions in places like this. They only come here to enjoy themselves after they make money." Chu Hua noticed that there seemed to be a kind of contempt in Xiangzi's eyes when he looked at those people.

Chu Hua entered the private room that had been booked in advance and looked around.

The room isn't very big, but it should be able to accommodate a banquet for more than ten people.

The environment was clean and quiet, a stark contrast to the noisy and chaotic downstairs. A long wooden table and leather sofas lined the walls, making it seem much more luxurious than the lobby.

When Chuhua and Xiangzi came in, Miaomeng, Mu and Hailing were already sitting inside. It seemed that the three of them had been waiting for a long time.

"Hehe, the boss is here, and I can finally order~" Miao Meng excitedly picked up the menu and looked for what she wanted to eat.

"Well, let's not talk about business today. Let's just have some fun and strengthen our relationships." Xiangzi also picked up a menu.

Seeing that others had started to order food, Chuhua also became a little curious about what kind of food this place had.

She opened a menu with no pictures, just names.

"Boiled omelet?"

The first dish name made Chu Hua feel confused.

She remembered that egg rolls were baked, and boiled egg rolls were indeed fresh. Chuhua planned to try them.

After ordering, you still need to wait a while for the food to be prepared.

"Speaking of which, we have to go to work in the afternoon, so is it okay to stay here for too long?" Chu Hua suddenly remembered this.

"The flow of time here is much slower than outside, so it's okay to stay a little longer." Xiangzi explained to her.

The food isn't ready yet, but the wine is already served.

"Want a drink?" Hai Ling, who had been silent all the time, asked Chu Hua after filling the cup in front of her.

"Uika, don't worry." Before Chuhua could say anything, Xiangzi refused for her, "She hasn't been awake for long, it's better for her to avoid these things."

"Oh." Hai Ling turned her head to look at Miao Meng, who had already started to drink heavily and seemed to be almost drunk. She looked at Miao Meng again, who still hadn't touched a drop of alcohol. Finally, she turned back to look at Xiangzi, "How about you drink with me?"

"No, I'm not much of a drinker." Xiangzi waved his hand and said.

"You're being modest." Hai Ling took a long sip herself, then glared at Xiangzi. "Even if the combined alcohol tolerance of all those people downstairs were combined, I don't think they could get you drunk."

"If it doesn't make me drunk and it doesn't taste good, then why bother drinking it?" Xiangzi said with a smile. "Besides, I have to drive soon."

"By the way." Hai Ling looked at Chu Hua again, "How are you feeling these days? Is there anything you're not used to?"

Chu Hua was very clear that this was a concern for himself.

But she really didn't know how to answer these two questions.

She actually felt that the days since she came to this world were quite happy and comfortable, and there was nothing to adapt to.

There is even a sense of happiness here that makes me not want to leave.

However, Chuhua didn't know what kind of life the Triangle Chuhua in this world led eight years ago, let alone the comparison between the past and the present.

But Chu Hua didn't know, the four people in front of him all knew.

Chuhua has been trying to find traces of the existence of "Triangle Chuhua" these days, in order to study what she had experienced in the past.

However, nothing was achieved.

Even though Tokyo's urban construction eight years ago was far inferior to what it is now, it is still too outrageous that a living person did not leave behind even a little information.

Not to mention that she is a director of the Mujica Group and has the highest authority in the group. In theory, she can access all the information of the group.

Chuhua could only come to one conclusion: the information about "Triangle Chuhua" was artificially erased by someone in Tokyo.

Who wiped it? It was obvious that it was the people in front of Chu Hua.

In other words, these four people do not want others to know the story of "Triangle Chuhua".

Then Chu Hua was in trouble. She wanted to play the "Triangle Chu Hua" of this world, but how could an actor perform a play well without even a script?

Chuhua even tried asking Hatsune.

But she still found nothing. Firstly, she couldn't tell Hatsune that Chuhua was from another world, so she could only get information from her indirectly. Secondly, Hatsune had never met the "Triangle Chuhua" either. She was born several years after the "Triangle Chuhua" fell asleep. Compared to Chuhua, Hatsune was only closer to that secret time period, so she didn't necessarily know more than the current Chuhua.

Answering Hai Ling's concern directly might reveal a flaw, so Chu Hua had to try to get away with it.

"Hmm... well... it's okay."

"It's OK", Chuhua feels that this is a really wonderful answer. It can be understood as "it's indeed OK", but it can also be interpreted as "although it's not very good, but I say it's OK". The specific meaning often depends on what the listener wants.

Since Hailing cares so much about "Triangle Chuhua", it stands to reason that she should lean towards an interpretation that is beneficial to herself.

"Oh, really? If you feel any inconvenience, please let us know immediately."

Call ~

Chu Hua breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the other party did not have any doubts. He passed this level without any danger.
