Suika's First Visit to the Bathhouse! / A Bar Without Alcohol

"Kids, it's dinnertime!"

Let's go back and eat first!

The two turned around and saw Outcast standing behind them with a gentle expression.

It was only then that Suika realized that the group had been standing at the door for quite some time without her noticing.

"Okay, okay!"

The mere mention of food seemed to energize my body, which had been exhausted from a day and night of travel.

As they followed the crowd into Rhodes Island, the floating dolls naturally attracted attention.

Children, in particular, are naturally drawn to these beautiful dolls.

Suika whispered a few words to Amiya nodded.

"Friends, Suika has entrusted ninety-eight doll girls to Rhodes Island for safekeeping."

I promised her I would find a good home for the dolls.

Based on the dolls' opinions, I will divide them into two groups. One group will join Rhodes Island's Household Affairs Department to assist the operators with cleaning.

Another portion will be given to the school as a companion for the students.

However, only students with excellent performance and grades will be eligible to take the dolls home, so everyone should study hard!

The reason Amiya only mentions 98 out of 99 dolls is because Suika says she wants to take the one that kicked her before.

After all, having a doll to help take care of your daily life when you're out and about, and being able to chat with the doll when you're bored, is better than being all alone.

Upon hearing Amiya's words, the adults smiled, while the children's eyes blazed with excitement. Those with good grades rubbed their hands together, determined to achieve excellent results in the next exam.

Even those with poor grades secretly vowed to study hard so they could bring home a cute, animated doll.

Outcast said that she would take care of building relationships with the children, and then led most of the dolls away.

Only two puppets remained standing in the same spot.

"These two dolls are the ones that were torn apart earlier, "Suika pointed out.

"One for you, one for me!"

"Okay!" Hearing Suika's words, Amiya, who had been feeling a little regretful about handing over all the dolls, regained her energy.

The two dolls were very well-behaved, each sitting on Suika and Amiya's shoulders.

When the two arrived at the cafeteria, they naturally became the most eye-catching people there, carrying their dolls.

Among the diners, almost all the young women looked on with envy at the doll sitting on the shoulders of the two people, curiously looking around, and occasionally standing up to help carry things.

Dolls are cute and capable; what woman wouldn't love them?

"Suika, what are your plans for the future? Do you want to join Rhodes Island's operations?" Amiya asked Suika, who was sitting to the side drinking to quench her thirst, after dinner.

At this moment, Suika was lounging on the sofa, digesting her food in a relaxed, sprawling manner. Upon hearing Amiya's words, she gave a half-drunk, half-sweet smile.

"Intend?

To be honest, if I hadn't come to see Leite and the others off, I was originally planning to collect Siesta from Gaodoting Territory.

Now that things are settled here, I'll rest for a few days and then head to Siesta, hoping to catch the end of summer, hahaha..."

Chapter 180 Suika's First Visit to the Bathhouse!

"So fast?" Amiya was somewhat surprised.

"It's not going to be fast... After all, we've been delayed for so long. If we don't go to Siesta soon, the atmosphere there will be gone by autumn."

After all, my goal is to see all the sights of Terra, Siesta is most beautiful in summer, so naturally I should go and see it in the summer."

Suika didn't mention another reason: Siesta will be gone in two years, and she wasn't sure if she'd have a chance to visit Siesta next year.

After all, besides Siesta, Terra also has another tourist destination in the summer, Dossoles, which is also a place she hopes to visit.

However, considering the time constraints, Suika felt her schedule was quite tight.

"Alright then..." Amiya's ears drooped, and then the doll next to her carefully helped her up.

After being distracted by the doll, Amiya's mood gradually calmed down.

"Remember to contact us if you get Siesta."

"Of course! I'll take some photos and send them back, so everyone can see what Siesta looks like through my eyes, hahaha!"

At this point, Suika got excited and said that she had a photography book in her backpack, which was still in Rhodes Island. She had left in a hurry and didn't take it with her, so it should still be in that room.

"By the way, I still have my house, right?"

Remembering this, Suika hurriedly asked.

"Of course, we respect the privacy of every operator. Unless an operator is confirmed dead or chooses to leave Rhodes Island, we will not reclaim the rooms where operators live." Amiya said, taking out her personal terminal.

"Look!"

Suika breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her name still registered at the place she used to live on Amiya's personal terminal.

It's not that there's anything valuable inside, it's just that I took all these photos myself along the way, and it would be a little painful to lose them.

After finishing her meal, Suika walked to the front door and saw Ace and Scout chatting in a corner not far away, so she went over to them.

Hey guys, what are you chatting about?

"Oh, it's Suika! Are you coming to the bar for a party tonight?" ACE's eyes lit up, and he made room for Suika before speaking.

"Oh, Rhodes Island has bars?"

"Of course, but there's no alcohol, only various beverages," ACE replied.

"What kind of bar is it if there's no alcohol?"

"There's nothing I can do. Kal'tsit has issued a prohibition order, and alcoholism is not allowed on this ship..." As she said this, ACE's gaze fell on Suika's waist.

Suika immediately understood his thoughts, and raised an eyebrow knowingly.

"OK, OK, but I need to go back and take a shower first. How about we get in touch later?"

When ACE saw that Suika understood what he meant, he gave her a kind smile.

"Let's add each other's contact information. I'll send you the location at 9 PM tonight, and you can come by yourself."

Oh, and remember not to mention this to anyone else.

Suika gave a no-questions-asked gesture before continuing to ask.

"By the way, what should we do with Viscount Scott's remains?"

"After confirming that the Bloodfiend's magic was gone from that guy's body, we secretly hung him up on that big tree outside the town, the biggest one."

Besides his own money, Rhodes Island provided some additional funds, which were then delivered to the president of the Mine Rescue Self-Help Association.

The other party stated that they would divide the money fairly and reasonably.

Scout answered, winking at Suika.

"Then aren't you worried that this chairman might embezzle?" Suika didn't think anyone would calmly share a large sum of money with others.

"Of course not, after all, Viscount Scott is still hanging there, isn't he!" Scout grinned. He could even bring back the nobles who ran away to Londinium. If an ordinary person dared to abscond with money, he would guarantee that the next day the person's entire family would be hanging on a tree along with the viscount.

"That makes sense! I'll be going now, see you tonight!" After hearing Scout's suggestion, Suika thought it made sense. Even if you abscond with the money, you need a way out and be able to escape the pursuit of these big shots from Rhodes Island.

After seeing Viscount Scott's fate, I believe that even if the chairman had such an idea, he wouldn't dare to do it.

"See you tonight! Oh, did you forget to add me as a friend?" ACE only realized this after Suika left; they were having so much fun chatting that they forgot about it.

"It's okay, I'm her friend, I'll send it to her later!" Scout patted ACE on the shoulder, implying that ACE was probably only thinking about drinking tonight and hadn't even thought about adding her as a friend.

Back in her dorm room on Rhodes Island, Suika let out a long sigh as she looked at her untouched backpack.

Then she rummaged through her clothes... a maid outfit... she'd give this to Kal'tsit later, since she vaguely remembered that Kal'tsit's maid outfit looked pretty good.

Lantern pants?

Where did these baggy pants come from?

Looking at the pants in front of her Suika tilted her head and thought for a long time before finally remembering that she had drawn them when she was still in Lungmen.

I don't need any authority, and I certainly won't crouch down in defense, so I'll just keep this thing at the bottom of my drawer.

After all, this thing is practically useless and not really suitable as a gift.

After looking through the other clothes, I finally chose a simple white dress.

Then, with the Shanghai Dolls on her head and toiletries in her arms, she crawled into the Rhodes Island bathhouse.

Upon entering, the expanse of white made Suika's nose feel a little itchy.

Unfortunately, now that I have lost Yun Chang, I can only regretfully find an empty spot to wash up.

"Ah, that feels so good!" Lying in the warm pool, Suika shivered with pleasure.

Then I saw several girls of similar age swimming over to greet me in a friendly manner.

Although they greeted each other, their eyes remained fixed on the Shanghai Dolls that, like the protagonist in Mashin Hero Wataru, was always riding on Suika's head.

"Wow, what an adorable doll... Can I touch her?" a blonde girl asked softly from the side.

Suika turned her head and saw a girl of about ten years old looking curiously at the Shanghai Dolls, while behind her, a large pile of golden hair floated on the surface of the water.

"I'd definitely agree to you touching her, but you have to get her permission first!"

After Suika finished speaking, the doll nodded in agreement.

The girl looked at the doll with eager eyes, "Can I touch you?"

The doll pointed to her hand, then made an "X" shape with both hands in front of her chest.

"Can't I?" The girl's ears drooped, looking very sad.

"She said your hands are all wet, so you have to dry them before you can touch her."

Seeing the girl's heartbroken expression, Suika quickly explained.

Really?

The girl looked at the doll, and the doll nodded in agreement with Suika's statement.

Chapter 181 The Bar Without Alcohol

The girl quickly stood up from the water, ran to a nearby cabinet, took out her handkerchief, wiped her hands clean, and then came back.

"Can I touch it? Wow, so cute~~~"

The doll flew into her palm, and the girl looked at the doll standing on her hand. The passion in her eyes made the whole bathroom seem a little hotter.

What was Suika doing while the girl was completely focused on the doll?

Suika is pulling her tail!

Sensing a strange sensation coming from behind, the girl turned her head and saw Suika squatting behind her, reaching out to stroke her unkempt tail.

"Ah!" The sharp scream drew everyone's attention in the bathroom.

"Suika, what are you doing again..." Closure peeked over from the side, looking at the girl huddled in a ball not far away, and then at Suika looked completely innocent next to her. She knew without a doubt that this was the source of the problem.

Suika spread her hands

"It was just a scientific research project; I don't know why she reacted so strongly..."

"Huh? Scientific research?" Closure at her with disdain, as if to say, "You've bullied others like this, and you have the nerve to call it scientific research?"

"Really, I just want to know, does Nine-Tailed Fox have nine tails branching from one tail root, or nine tail roots...?"

Look at that tail, it usually splits into a big flower shape. Not to mention whether it affects its movement, if it had nine tail roots... how thick would its tailbone be!

But Closure didn't expect that Suika would actually raise a question.

"Of course... it shouldn't be nine tail roots, right..." Although Closure wasn't a doctor, she felt that nine tail roots, even if they were squeezed together, would be a huge pile. How could a normal person's body support such a large pile hanging from their buttocks?

"See, you didn't know either, did you? I didn't know either, so I just wanted to see for myself!"

After Suika finished speaking, the two of them looked in the direction of the girl at the same time.

"Huh!" Sensing their gazes, the girl quickly tried to shrink back, almost disappearing into a corner.

"You two, adults like you, what are you doing bullying a little girl?"

Lisa, don't be afraid, I'll teach them a lesson for you!
