Weapon-Fighting Techniques: Longsword, Hidden Rat

Day 27 of the Wasteland Calendar.

Yu Yuan woke promptly at six to his alarm.

After washing up, Yu Yuan entered the Starry Sky Observatory and checked on the Black Shield Police Department. Its defenses were as tight as they had been yesterday.

Carmen had left no signal to meet, so Yu Yuan went to the Frenzied Planter.

After all these days of growth, the Wild Chives planted in the Frenzied Planter were ready to harvest.

The first crop was tender and bright green, enough to make anyone hungry at a glance.

Yu Yuan cut a handful of Wild Chives, returned to the Hideout, and went into the kitchen.

Today, the Bountiful Produce Basket had produced two tomatoes.

Yu Yuan opened a can of Canned Beef and poured it into a pot. He added the chopped tomatoes and brought them to a boil, then put in the instant noodles. As soon as the noodle block softened, he tipped in the chopped Wild Chives and turned off the Power Supply.

His fragrant Tomato Beef Instant Noodles were ready.

The rich aroma filled the Hideout. Miemie caught the scent and came out of the generator room.

Yu Yuan sliced the tomato he had saved for Miemie, placed it in a food bowl, and set it before her.

Then he walked over to the Magazine Display Rack. A book caught his eye, and his spirits lifted.

He spent 1,000 Survival Points to take it down.
