Chapter 208 Temporary stay.
After Cecilia took the first bite of the cake, her eyes showed a little surprise, and she couldn't help but exclaimed, because she found that the taste of this cake was different from the ones she had eaten before.
“Has this shop hired a new pastry chef?” Cecilia often eats pastries from this shop, so she is very familiar with the taste, so she can feel and remember it as soon as she eats it this time. The familiar taste is different.
Lu Xiao heard the sound and looked over: "Is the taste wrong?"
She didn't taste any difference, because she didn't eat many cakes from this store, and every time It’s just a small piece to eat with Cecilia.
"It feels like the pastry chef has changed. There are slight changes in the taste. If you don't eat it often, you may not feel it obviously, but it's okay."
Lu Xiao didn't expect that Cecilia would be so interested in this. The pastry chefs in this shop are so familiar with each other, which shows that I have eaten cakes from this shop many times over the years.
“That may be true.”
“I don’t know why. How was the business of this store when you went there?”
As A regular customer of this store for many years, Cecilia still asked one more question.
"It feels okay. It's no different from before, but there are a few new waiters here. Speaking of which, I even know one of them." Lu Xiao briefly recounted the process of getting to know Platinum.
After listening to her story, Cecilia nodded and said: "That is indeed a coincidence, but he really should thank you. If it weren't for you, he might not be able to leave the supervision of the Female Protection Association now. ”
Lu Xiao smiled, she didn’t pay much attention to this matter. The reason why she saved Platinum at that time was more because she couldn't stand the way the Duke of Green's female cub acted.
Knowing what she was thinking, Cecilia said nothing more. After the grandfather and grandson finished eating the cake, Lu Xiao returned to the room.
Lu Xiao, who was about to take a shower, suddenly received a message. The sender was still Crowe, and the content was - "The address, you can find what you want here, but you have to come in person, because Only your biological genes can open the door"
Lu Xiao frowned unconsciously. If Crowe's purpose was unclear last time, his purpose this time was obvious.
Forward message to Admiral Crane.
After receiving the message, Admiral Crane immediately sent a voice message to Lu Xiao: "Are you home now?"
"Yes, I am at home. I just collected After hearing this news, they want me to go in person."
"Xiao Xiao, I am very sure that they are targeting you. Are you willing to take you to the First Military Region?" br>
"No problem, Dad, I'll wait for you."
"Okay, you pack some clothes, I'll go back later."
After the call with Crane, Lu Xiao went to the bathroom to wash up quickly After taking a shower and simply packing up a few sets of clothes and some daily necessities, Admiral Crane also rushed back.
The matter was also discussed with Cecilia. After hearing that people from the Black Tower approached Lu Xiao again, Cecilia couldn't help but become worried and followed Admiral Crane: " What do these people want to do? "
"Don't worry, mother, I will do my best to protect Xiaoxiao's safety," Admiral Crane comforted Cecilia softly.
Now that Cecilia is older, she can't bear to see such a thing happen. If it had been earlier, she probably wouldn't be so concerned.
"You are Xiaoxiao's male father, and you are naturally responsible for her safety. This time we must find the bastards like Black Tower. There is no reason to guard against others all day long."
"The mother I know." Admiral Crane said seriously. Lu Xiao walked over and hugged Cecilia, patted the old lady's shoulder gently and comforted: "Don't worry, grandma. I will be fine if I follow my father. But you should take care of yourself at home and wait for my return."< br>
"Grandma knows that you are capable and sensible. It is normal for an outstanding little female like you to be remembered by others. But I still hope that you will be safe and well. Don't worry about me. I look like an old man, and I stay in my own nest again. Who can do anything to me, unless they don’t want to live anymore, go ahead. If you need anything, just tell me. Remember Lu Xiao, Duke Galiodero’s Palace will always be Your strong support!”
"Okay grandma."
After talking to Cecilia, Lu Xiao followed General Crane out of the Duke's Palace.
Admiral Crane looked at Lu Xiao, who was very emotionally stable, and actually felt sorry for him. At Lu Xiao's age, other little females are most naughty and willful.
But their little female has already taken on heavy responsibilities on her shoulders, and has become the light of hope for the males in the entire empire.
The purpose of Black Tower looking for Lu Xiao is actually not difficult to guess.
As S-class males recovered and discharged from S-class asylums one after another, all this points to Lu Xiao.
In this regard, Black Tower, which has always been seeking interests, cannot remain indifferent.
That’s why we are harassed again and again.
Cecilia is right, they have no reason to guard against thieves all day long, and this matter must be resolved.
"I have arranged for people to investigate the situation at this address. I will notify you as soon as there is news. Please do not go to the Fifth Research Institute for the time being."
Lu Xiao knew that General Crane said this for the sake of her safety, so he did not refuse: "Okay, I'll say hello to Teacher Ai and say that you have something to do with me here and need my help." I'll be here for a while."
"Okay." Knowing that Lu Xiao didn't want his colleagues at the Fifth Research Institute to worry, Admiral Crane didn't refuse.
By the time we entered the First Military Region, it was already getting dark.
Seeing Lu Xiao following General Kelan, Admiral Crane’s adjutant immediately saluted respectfully: “Good day, Your Excellency, Lu Xiao.”
Lu Xiao was startled by the sudden loud greeting. He raised his eyes to look at the nervous and excited expression on the other person's face, feeling a little funny: "Hello, your Excellency, Adjutant."
The Adjutant was immediately happy when he was responded to. Incredible.
Admiral Crane glanced at his adjutant, who had always been very steady, and at most would be a little jumpy in front of him, and coughed lightly, indicating that it was enough.
Because Lu Xiao was coming, the adjutant had already packed Lu Xiao's room in advance at the request of General Crane.
“The conditions here are a little worse, but if you have any needs, you can tell me and I can meet them!” The adjutant opened the door enthusiastically.
Lu Xiao was not surprised after entering. This is the most normal standard military area lounge. He had seen it before at Ares: "It's very good here. I don't need anything. Thank you."
"You are so kind. You can come to us. Our entire First Military Region will be in full bloom!" The adjutant was so happy
that he finally met Mr. Lu Xiao.
Admiral Crane felt that his adjutant was really talking too much tonight, taking away his responsibility as a male father.
Originally, he wanted to take Lu Xiao to see the room and say those words in person, but his adjutant did it for him!
It’s not good to act too stingy or depressed in front of Lu Xiao!
