Their commission was suspicious.

"Why not? Anyway, the second floor of the bar is empty, and it's not used for long anyway. Besides, a lot of people went into the dream game today..."

Since he had nothing better to do, and the other Elena seniors had given him quite a few raw stones, Chen Luo naturally had no reason to refuse.

"So that's why you announced the bar's closure today?" Xiao Jiu raised an eyebrow.

"Hmm, I didn't announce the bar would be closed today. I just said I wouldn't be at the bar tonight, and if you need anything, you can go to Judah's Covenant. Or did I send the message to the wrong person?" Chen Luo frowned.

"No, you definitely didn't send the wrong message, because that's exactly what I received. But what you're saying is no different from saying the bar is closed today. If your bar's sales are even a third of what they usually are today, I'll do a handstand and wash my hair with the River of Time!"

"Your scheme is so blatant it could be heard all over the lower districts of Belleburg," Chen Luo said, rolling his eyes at Xiao Jiu.

"I don't deny that I did consider taking advantage of the river for free, but I'm serious about the decline in performance," Xiao Jiu insisted again.

"Let it fall, it falls. Today is New Year's Eve in this world. I'll be working from 8 pm to midnight, I have things to do." Chen Luo looked at the sky where the sun had already set but had not yet fallen into darkness.

"what's up?"

"Make dumplings."

"..."

"Why don't you just take the dumplings from the bar out?" Xiao Jiu felt that Chen Luo was being a bit too formalistic.

"No, it's different. Dumplings you make yourself are the worst."

"???"

"Alright, let's continue watching the match. The 128 trainers on the field right now are all high-quality trainers selected from the Bar and the Puppet World. You should pray that the Bar side won't lose to the Puppet World side."

"Losing to your opponent in a game is one thing, but losing to a computer NPC... I hope you can get a good night's sleep tonight." Chen Luo chuckled unkindly at the thought of that possible scenario.

The current time is 6:30, and the original time was 6:00. In addition to the players from the bar, volunteers from the Puppet World were also brought in for this competition because there were not enough participants.

"Go Yakumo Yukari!" Thinking of this, Kyu shouted to Yakumo Yukari, who was competing on the stage and shining brightly.

Because Yakumo Yukari bought all the game recharge tickets in the Dream Game, she received the only item in the entire server—the Golden Houmu Medal—as a gift from Chen Luo, given the huge amount of money she spent.

The Golden Houmu Medal – Your wealth is so great that even the Golden Houmu King is impressed, and he has awarded you this pure gold medal.

The effect is obvious: the whole body will become shiny gold, making you look very rich.

Watching the trainer competition in the bar, which had become lively with a considerable number of people participating and acting as extras thanks to the friendship of many people from the Doll World, Chen Luo smiled and then quietly disappeared from the guest seats.

"Hua, let's go. Ellie told us to go home early today." Chen Luo appeared behind Hua at some point and then gently patted Hua's shoulder.

"Luo... that's true, but Xiaoshi is still participating in the competition up there."

"Sigh, don't worry about her. She'll lose in two rounds anyway. She only suddenly decided to participate a few days before the finals. How could she possibly beat anyone?"

"Oh."

"I heard it!" Xiao Shi, who was in the middle of the competition, couldn't help but shout when he heard the only two people he was paying special attention to talking about him behind his back.

On this last day before Lunar New Year's Eve, everyone will go home on time at Ellie's call.

In fact, at this time of day, everyone in Golden Garden is preparing to go home, except for two people.

One is Klein, because Klein is working overtime.

The other one is Su...

Su is on her way.

Chapter 1459 [60% off for full subscription] Kevin, you're really despicable right now!

"Tomorrow is the new year, remember to go home early tonight. After all, it only happens once a year, so cherish the time you spend together and convey your feelings to each other. Does anyone have any special plans for tonight? Leave a comment below and let Miss Pink Fairy know!"

"Aili's live stream is quite well done," Chen Luo commented, looking at the live stream on the screen.

“Of course, at least in this city, Sister Aili is a super idol whose popularity is no less than Sister Eden’s. But Luo, why are you watching the live stream here when Ailisia is clearly doing it in the studio next door? Why don’t you just go in and watch it?” Pado, dressed in a cat mascot costume, asked in confusion.

"You don't understand, do you? Idols are only more pleasing to the eye when viewed through a screen, because you never know who is behind the screen or even if they are human."

"I heard that, Lolo, that's slander." After turning off the live stream and returning to the living room, Alicia went behind the sofa where Chen Luo was sitting and then put him in a chokehold.

"Cough cough, I'm going to die."

"I didn't use any force at all."

"Since you didn't use any force, just let go of me."

"Oh no!"

Kevin opened the door from outside the house and came in.

Poor Kevin, a corporate slave, returned carrying a bag of flour. It was already pitch black outside, and the only bright spot was a corner of Canghai City where the Trainer Competition was in full swing.

As soon as Kevin entered the house, he saw Kosmo and Gretchen standing at the door, fully prepared and ready to go.

"Are you going out?"

“Hmm. Kosmo said this can only be done at night,” Greta said after following Kosmo past Kevin and standing outside the room.

"Kosmo, Kosmo, I thought you were a cool and aloof handsome guy, but it turns out you're more like a jailer. I'll let it go today, but tomorrow I'll personally send you to jail." As Kosmo's designated guardian (Mebius) and companion, Chen Luo warned Kosmo while Alicia held him by the throat.

“…Gresh, don’t leave things unsaid.”

"Kosmo said that a true hero must walk through the long night and light a ray of light for the new dawn!" Gretchen took out many sparklers from her hands hidden behind her back.

"Are Lolo and Kevin coming along?"

"Now? No need." After being chilled by the winter wind, Kevin gave up the idea of ​​going out to play with fireworks.

"Make sure you dress warmly when you go out. There's a big fireworks display at midnight tonight. Remember to watch it together." Chen Luo nagged like a mother hen.

"Alright, Kosmo will take good care of Gretchen. Lolo, stop slacking off and hurry up and make dumplings. Everyone has to come."

"Oh, what a tragedy. If I had known, I would have come later like Su. Maybe I could have earned more money outside and supported my family."

"Don't say that. It's not like Su wanted to stay. Besides, isn't Su on his way back? Kevin, why don't you come and make dumplings with us? Let's see who makes the best dumplings." Alicia didn't forget to drag Kevin into it while coercing Chen Luo.

"Dumplings?" Kevin silently walked over to Hua, who was making dumplings, and next to Hua was Xiao Shi, who was also making dumplings.

“That’s right, dumplings, a local snack, symbolize the changing of the year, family reunion, and good fortune. In my hometown, every household makes these during the New Year,” Hua explained.

The pre-civilization and the pre-civilization China were not quite the same, so the description of dumplings was also different.

The reason why the pre-civilization and the current civilization of Shenzhou have such a high degree of similarity is, on the one hand, because the reincarnation power of the Herald of the End allows what has been done to be done again, and what has been done to be done again. On the other hand, it is also because Hua, the pioneer in charge of the Shenzhou region, brought some customs of the pre-civilization to the future.

Therefore, Hua's description is correct.

"Mix cold water and flour, knead them into a dough, roll it out into a wrapper to wrap the filling, add the filling made of various ingredients, and pinch it into a crescent shape..."

"Uh, well... Xiaoshi, the dumplings where I'm from aren't wrapped like this. What's in that jar over there?" Hua frowned, sensing that things weren't so simple.

Because Xiaoshi, who was making dumplings next to him, wasn't pinching the dumplings together but instead smearing something on them?

"Glue."

"..."

"Hey, dumplings, I know them all. Nobody knows dumplings better than me. Don't worry, this glue is edible." The Herald of Knowledge waved his hand, indicating that everything was under control.

"Edible...it doesn't sound like it's inedible." Hua frowned.

"You guys are in charge of making dumplings, so what steps are they responsible for?" Kevin pointed to the things that were originally on the table of the Golden Garden group and the people next to them.

Qianjie was pounding the dough with the force of a punch, while Aponia was responsible for cleaning up the flour that had been shaken off the board after Qianjie's powerful blows.

Mebius was mixing a greenish potion nearby.

It's hard to be sure what Mebius is planning to do.

Qianjie always gets very excited when kneading dough, and he keeps saying things like "fight to the death," "let's fight," and "they'll all die." But thankfully, everyone's gotten used to it.

"Gotcha!" Velvi cheered as she caught a cute little robot, quickly tied it up, and tossed it into a corner.

This household robot was provided by Mebius Biological Experiments as a friendly gesture, based on the Klein prototype of the all-purpose household robot.

Now they've fallen into Virvi's clutches.

Vilvi directly dismantled the microwave oven next to her, and then used the parts inside, along with a wrench and a welding torch, to begin an illegal and extremely cruel modification.

Throughout the villas of the Golden Garden, there is a strange order that is unique to other residences yet perfectly orderly.

Although most of the residents in Golden Courtyard are quite individualistic and their unique characteristics are obvious, they are able to live together peacefully.

Although the scene was chaotic, at least everyone was trying their best to make dumplings for dinner.

"By the way, Kevin, would you like to come and make dumplings?" Hua, feeling deeply troubled by the chaotic scene before her and hesitant to speak, changed the subject and extended an invitation to Kevin.

“I’ve never done that.” Kevin shook his head.

"Come on, Kevin, it's even more worthwhile to try because you've never done it before." Alicia pushed Kevin towards the long dining table and thoughtfully prepared the filling and dough for him.

“Indeed, I can’t be the only one to suffer.” Chen Luo, who had long been entrusted with important responsibilities by Alicia, nodded solemnly.

Given the culinary skills and dumpling-making proficiency of the members of the "Chasing the Fire Moth" group, Chen Luo's pot of dumplings was probably one of the only two edible ones, and perhaps the best.

Another edible dumpling brand is Hua's, but I can't guarantee it will be delicious.

Qian Jie, the only one of the Thirteen Heroes of the Fire Chasing Clan who was exceptionally skilled in cooking and was trained by Chen Luo, was in charge of kneading dough.

What an ingenious allocation method!

Time passed quietly, and everyone was busy preparing the dumplings they were making.

Even Gretchen, who had just returned from setting off fireworks, asked Kosmo next to her for a portion of dough.

Before long, the little artist Gretchen had wrapped a very cute big-headed dumpling.

"not bad!"

Kosmo naturally nodded in approval at the dumplings that Gretchen presented to him.

Meanwhile, Kevin, on the other side of Kosmo, looked at the rather cute dumpling, then at the plate of dumplings in front of him that could be described as extremely unappetizing, and chose to stand up.

Chen Luo glanced at Kevin, who was planning to go out and buy frozen dumplings to save face, and looked at him with disdain.

Kevin, you're really despicable right now!

Meanwhile, Sakura was chopping minced meat, and Hua urged her on again.

When Aponia saw that there wasn't enough filling, she even dared to help chop the meat.

Surprisingly, Aponia's hands moved so fast while chopping the meat that they were almost blurry. It's hard to imagine what this night shift nurse usually does, otherwise how could she be so skilled?

"Please, turn it into minced meat."

"Hey, what's wrong with those two? Why are they making such a racket?" Mebius grumbled as he watched the two men nearly chop the worksheet to pieces, then started pinching his own snake-shaped dumplings.

The green potion that Möbius just mixed was actually vegetable juice, and its purpose was to turn the dough green.

Just kidding, I, Mebius, have never been inferior to anyone in my life, how could I not have a unique dumpling image?

But Mebius used green dough, which was one thing, but her dumplings were coiled up like snakes, and they didn't even have a top!

The snake's head remained proudly and defiantly erect.

It's quite bizarre.

However, Mebius soon gave up making dumplings, not because he was dissatisfied with his work, but because he got into a fight with Vervière.

"Vilvie!" Mebius ripped off the long, green snake he had painstakingly shaped.

"How was it? What do you think of the quick dumpling-making function I added to the home robot? Please enjoy the convenience that machines bring. You're welcome." Velvi gently bowed, then made a graceful exit in the manner of a qualified magician.

"What did you do to my Klein?" Möbius chased after him!

The fist has hardened!

Making dumplings is something everyone can do on this joyous occasion, showcasing their individual skills and talents.

Of all the dumplings, the most beautiful must be the rose-shaped dumpling that Alicia made. It was as gorgeous as a flower and extremely difficult to make.

It just doesn't look appetizing.

As for the most expensive dumplings... it must be the Eden dumplings, which have a gemstone stuffed into each one, right?

Finally, after being reminded that dumplings are for eating, Eden gave up on stuffing jewels inside and instead chose to wrap them in gold leaf...

At least gold leaf can be eaten, so it's somewhat acceptable.

The dumplings that Gretchen and Kosmo made were more like toys than dumplings.

Then I got a lecture from Aponia.
