Action Arrangements

At four-thirty the next morning.

People were already moving about on the empty streets.

There were two of them. They looked like they were out for a morning run, though one of them had a slightly unsteady pace.

They swiped their cards into the school and headed straight for the cafeteria.

But the closer they got to the cafeteria, the slower they moved.

With a hundred meters left, one of them could no longer walk.

"Fran, don't be scared~ Hurry up and come with me. It's fine, I'll help explain everything."

Fran's thin stick-like legs trembled slightly. "It's not that I don't want to walk. I don't know why, but my body won't move. It feels like it's activated the most basic survival instinct... Mr. Hunter is definitely going to kill me! Things have been so busy lately, and last night he specifically told me to get there early to chop vegetables.

Why didn't I set an alarm~ I want to die.

Wait, I think I should write a will instead.

Luo Di, please give my will to the landlord when the time comes."

Smack!

Luo Di slapped Fran directly on the chest.

It was no ordinary slap. A hole had formed in his palm, instantly transporting them inside the cafeteria.

The sudden shift in position frightened Fran so badly that he nearly collapsed to the floor, feeling something sweet and fragrant leak out.

Luo Di continued encouraging him. "Hunter usually doesn't arrive until five. We still have time to prep the ingredients for breakfast. With my explanation afterward, it shouldn't be a big problem."

"O-Okay..."

Fran reluctantly got to his feet and followed Luo Di toward the back kitchen.

Indeed, they had wanted to arrive early and chop the vegetables in advance, making it easier to explain themselves later.
