Since Meg wasn't around, Mamy's put up a notice to close for a week straight away.
However, Mia felt bored, so she continued to open the ice cream shop, and Gina helped out in the shop.
"Swans are so cute. How can they be roasted and eaten?" Gina smiled as she reached out to scratch Little Guai's nose. Then, she looked at Ugly Duckling, which was squatting on the ground and had already retracted its wings.
Its golden wings had already disappeared, and turned into a mark on its back. Compared to its originally dim color, it seemed to have a layer of gold lining, and it looked rather impressive.
"Don't fly around on Ugly Duckling in the future, especially during the day. You'll be caught," Gina instructed Little Guai with a serious expression.
"Oh." Little Guai nodded obediently, and didn't forget to make a face at Ugly Duckling.
…
"Your Highness, Little Mistress drank some fruit juice and has fallen asleep," Phyllis said with a sense of relief as she walked into Irina's office.
"It's been hard on you." Irina said as she looked at Phyllis, who had obviously lost a lot of weight over the past few days, and even had two obvious dark circles under her eyes.
Over the past few days, she finally understood how hard it was for Meg to raise Amy alone.
Because she saw how hard it was for Phyllis with her own eyes.
A small baby wouldn't do things according to your wishes at all.
"It's okay. I'm fine." Phyllis smiled, but couldn't hide her fatigue.
"Drink this glass of water and have a good sleep. Today, you just have to hand the child over to Ashley." Irina picked up a glass of water beside her, and dripped a drop of Milk of Life into it.
The rich scent of life instantly filled the entire office. Just a whiff of it was enough to make one feel refreshed.
Phyllis took the glass of water and drank it in one gulp. Then, she looked at Irina with a serious expression, and said, "Your Highness, I really only need to have a good sleep in the future. I don't need something as precious as the Milk of Life."
This was the Milk of Life that could save lives. Now that the Tree of Life was gone, every drop of the Milk of Life that the princess had was gone, she felt very embarrassed to waste it on her.
"Idiot, you've already reached the bottleneck. Go back and take a nap. When you wake up, try to break through the bottleneck and see if you can break through the threshold of level seven," Irina said as she gave her a chestnut.
"Oh." Phyllis covered her forehead and left. She was still a little confused. She was just taking care of the baby. How did she reach a bottleneck?
Closing the office door, Irina sat at the desk in a daze and whispered to herself, "I don't know if he's doing well over there. It's still a bit reckless to go down alone."
"Moreover, that thing seems to have appeared again recently. I have to make a trip to Abyssal Island to take a look."
…
Meg and Nancy had afternoon tea. The atmosphere was relaxed, just like two friends.
Nancy seemed to be quite interested in his experience, so Meg had to make up a cliché story about an inspirational young man who kept innovating.
However, she seemed to be very satisfied with the story. By the end of afternoon tea, her favorability towards him had increased by two points.
"System, if this goes on, do you think she'll fall in love with me?" Meg came out of the coffee shop on the top floor with a strange expression.
"Based on the current analysis, this possibility is extremely low," the System replied.
Meg pursed his lips and did not refute.
He could actually feel that Nancy's emotions towards him were more of a kind of appreciation. It was the appreciation of a superior person towards a rival artist, more or less with a sense of condescension.
Of course, he was quite satisfied with this situation.
This way, if he suddenly disappeared in the future, she would not have to frantically look for him.
After returning to the dormitory, Meg left the building in disguise.
"There are many options for disguises, such as the staff. Why did you have to choose women's clothing?" Xi sat in the passenger seat with a puzzled expression on her cold face.
"Is this the so-called women's clothing only once or countless times?"
"Uh …" Meg was stunned.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Meg pushed the blame to her while taking off his skirt.
Xi turned her face away and rolled her eyes.
Moreover, even if he did not disguise himself, with his strength, it was still very easy for him to sneak out of the building without anyone noticing.
After changing back into men's clothing and a new face, the flying car stopped in front of the gate of the largest trade city in Tucker City.
Tucker Trade City was the largest and most comprehensive trade city in the entire underground city. It was also regarded as the trading hub of the entire underground city.
All kinds of daily necessities could be traded here, from artillery to heavy ships.
"What do you want to buy?" Xi asked.
"Let's walk around first. I don't know what to buy, so I'll broaden my horizons." Meg walked towards the machinery trading center in front of him.
Xi frowned slightly but still chose to follow him.
As soon as they entered the gate, a huge warship parked in the hall attracted Meg's attention.
"Yuan-level warship. It was eliminated by the military two hundred years ago and is now a civil warship." Xi introduced it to Meg.
"How much is one?" Meg asked.
"It's not for sale to you."
"Can't I buy it for my daughter as a toy?"
"No."
Meg reluctantly looked away from the warship. Although it was a warship that was eliminated by the military, it was still an advanced warship that the system could not build.
The first floor was full of firearms. Meg took a quick look around. Other than a few military-supplied firearms, he could find all kinds of firearms here.
"Firearms are sold like cabbages. Aren't you worried about gunfights every day?" Meg could not help but ask.
"You need a document to buy a gun, and every gun is recorded. All the information about the gun used in the crime can be found immediately," Xi answered calmly.
Meg nodded thoughtfully. It sounded like there was nothing wrong with it.
Shopping without buying anything in the afternoon completely suppressed Meg's spending power.
In addition to the machinery trading center, Meg also went to several daily necessities centers.
Compared to firearms that could only be bought by big arms dealers, those small commodity wholesalers were more representative of the ordinary people in the underground city.
After one round, Meg felt a sense of familiarity.
The underground world gave him a similar feeling to Earth in many ways. They had completely broken away from the feudal oppression and the ordinary people had more rights.
Although the aristocratic families still had a lot of power, they could only hide behind the scenes and did not have much influence on the ordinary people.
Their lives were so much better than the ordinary people of the Norland Continent.
On the way back, Meg looked at the skyscrapers outside the window in silence.
Xi Xi glanced at him and was a little confused.
"When do you think the people of the Norland Continent can live like them?" Meg suddenly looked back at Xi and asked.
Xi looked into Meg's clear eyes and finally shook her head.
She did not know and could not say.
However, this idea of his was already very dangerous.
Meg smiled and looked out the window again. "That day will come."
