Dialogue
A few days later, you meet up with Lycaon at the coffee shop in Lumina Square as you agreed earlier.
- Lycaon: Regarding the Mockingbird incident from before, I have conducted a preliminary investigation.
- Lycaon: It seems this organization is deliberately trying to get close to Miss Lilac after all.
Oh, I see...- They’re definitely up to something.
- Lycaon: That’s right. The true intentions of these people remain unclear. However, I have already prepared my “bait.”
- Lycaon: Perhaps a big fish will take a bite soon.
- Lycaon: Actually, there’s one more thing I’d like to discuss with you.
- Lycaon: If it’s not too much to ask, could you spare some time around this time tomorrow?
- Lycaon: I have some doubts about this case that I hope we can clear up together.
Of course.- See you tomorrow!
- Lycaon: Wonderful. Then I’ll be waiting for you at Lumina Square this time tomorrow.
- The next day, (ProtagonistProtagonist) heads to Lumina Square and immediately spots Lycaon in the crowd.
He/she steps forward and stands on tiptoes to pat Lycaon on the back... - Lycaon: Ah, you are very punctual.
- Lycaon: I wanted to discuss with you that, recently, Miss Lilac has been acting rather strange.
- Lycaon: While she usually frequents the bookstore, recently, she has been going to the noodle shop instead.
- What’s wrong with the noodle shop?
- Proxy:
- (if Belle) What’s wrong with the noodle shop? Noodles are the best!
- (if Wise) What’s wrong with the noodle shop? Noodles are pretty good.
- Lycaon: I apologize, I have no bias against noodles, what I mean is... Miss Lilac’s least favorite food is noodles.
- Lycaon: She even said, “Noodles being the protag’s favorite food? That’s so last year. It’s a new year now, have some creativity.”
- So Lilac really is a big comic nerd.
- Proxy:
- (if Belle) So Lilac really is a huge comic nerd, huh!
- (if Wise) Lilac seems to be quite the comic nerd.
- Lycaon: In addition, according to what her chauffeur and bodyguards said, she even skipped her extra classes today.
- Lycaon: This is completely unprecedented. Miss Lilac has always been well-behaved and never skips classes. Even in her free time, she spends it almost entirely reading comics.
- Lycaon: I have a suspicion that this all might have to do with that so-called Mockingbird organization.
- The phantom thieves taught Lilac some bad habits?
- Proxy:
- (if Belle) You think the phantom thieves are teaching Lilac bad habits?
- (if Wise) Did the phantom thieves teach Lilac bad habits.
- Lycaon: Yes, I believe so.
- Maybe Lilac is in a rebellious phase?
- Lycaon: I thought... Miss Lilac’s rebellion is already expressed through the way she speaks?
- Lycaon: In any case, in order to ensure that there are no potential threats to her safety, I wish to do some investigating at the places she frequents.
- Lycaon: If I could be so bold as to ask you to accompany me? I believe you are likely more familiar with Lumina Square than I am.
- Sure! Lumina Square is like a second home to me.
- Proxy:
- (if Belle) Of course! I know Lumina Square like the back of my hand.
- (if Wise) Sure, Lumina Square may as well be my second home.
- Lycaon: It seems you are indeed quite familiar with the location. I was wise to ask for your help.
- Sure. I can be your Proxy for Lumina Square.
- Proxy:
- (if Belle) Of course! I know Lumina Square like the back of my hand.
- (if Wise) Sure. I can be a Proxy for Lumina Square, too. I've memorized the locations of all the stores there.
- Lycaon: Although I am not quite sure I understand, I trust that it was a very amusing joke.
- Lycaon: Ah, yes, there was something else I wished to discuss with you.
- Lycaon: May I call you “Master” while investigating, just in case?
- Lycaon: I believe using this to cover our identities will be more convenient for us.
- Of course, you can!
- Proxy:
- (if Belle) Of course, you can call me whatever~
- (if Wise) By all means, go ahead.
- Call me that as much as you want, I like it~
- Proxy:
- (if Belle) For sure! Can you call me that more often? I like hearing it, heheh.
- (if Wise) Sure. You can call me that as many times as you want.
- Lycaon: Thank you for your cooperation.
- Lycaon: Then, let us begin from the noodle shop.
- (After approaching the noodle shop)
- Chop Junior: Oh, it’s you, (ProtagonistProtagonist).
- Are you free right now?
- I wanted to ask you about something.
- Chop Junior: Well... Sorry, I’m in the middle of something right now and there’s a stream of customers queueing out the door.
- Chop Junior: *sigh* We’ve been short-staffed at the shop recently, and the part-time kids aren’t always able to come in...
- Chop Junior: Besides making all the noodles, I have to serve all the diners, too. Some people take an eternity just to order... I’m just swamped here.
- Lycaon: Would it make things more efficient if you were to know in advance what each customer in the queue wished to order?
- Chop Junior: Course it would! If I could get their orders in advance, then I could really focus on the noodles.
- Lycaon:...I see. I have a proposal to address this problem. You can judge for yourself if it’s appropriate.
- Lycaon:With your assent, we could sign a temporary contract—I can help ask your diners about their preferences; give them some appropriate suggestions; and summarize everything into a table for your perusal.
- Lycaon:Of course, I won’t be requiring any form of compensation. I just hope you can take the time to answer a few questions once you’re less busy.
- Chop Junior: Er...
- Lycaon sure is one dependable attendant!
- Trust us on this!
- Chop Junior: If you say so, (ProtagonistProtagonist)... then I’ll leave things with you.
- (Helping the customers place their orders)
- Excited Diner: Oh... I think a white bowl is better...
- Excited Diner:Wow! It’s a Thiren attendant! He looks so suave...
- Lycaon: Good day. Our restaurant provides a menu service that matches you with dishes that suit your needs to increase efficiency.
- Lycaon: May I ask: What appeals to your tastebuds?
- Excited Diner: Gets my senses going? That’s a little direct, isn’t it? I like ’em hot and arrogant. I’m also into furries. And...
- Lycaon: That’s on me. I didn’t explain myself clearly enough. What I meant to say was “How do you like your noodles?”
- Excited Diner: Oh... in that case, I like sweet noodles.
- Lycaon: Master, based on this diner’s description, I have identified their main requests: white bowl, preferably on the sweeter side. Is there anything you could suggest?
- White Bowl: Pumpkin Soup Noodles
- (correct option)
- White Bowl: Seafood Noodles
- Black Bowl: Mushroom Noodles
- Excited Diner: Not bad. That’s exactly how I like it! By the way, do you mind if I watch the attendant while I eat? They go really well together.
- Lycaon: ...I don’t think that’s a good idea. It will affect the running of the store.
- Excited Diner: That’s too bad! For a second there, I thought the noodles on the menu had turned into a high-end ribeye steak.
- Excited Diner: I’ve got one last question for you! May I please... pet your tail?
- Go right ahead. It’s free.
- The tail has a different price tag.
- Lycaon: Well, I haven’t heard that one before. Look, thanks, but the tail is off-limits.
- Anxious Diner: Look at this crowd! How long are we going to be waiting for? Is it really that hard to get a bite to eat around here...
- Lycaon: Good day. Our restaurant provides a menu service that matches you with dishes that suit your needs to increase efficiency.
- Lycaon: Excuse me, how do you like your noodles?
- Anxious Diner: You mean flavor? Well, of course, it’s gotta be spicy! Noodles without chili is [sic] like an Ethereal without a Hollow. It’s not natural!
- Lycaon: I’m sorry, but noodles that aren’t spicy do exist in the world, or at least they do here. If you want some, we got it!
- Lycaon: Master, based on this diner’s description, I have identified their main requests: a black bowl, piping hot soup, and a dish with meat. Please recommend a dish for them.
- Black Bowl: Cold Noodles
- Black Bowl: Mushroom Noodles
- Red Chilli Chicken Noodles
- (correct option)
- Anxious Diner: Hmm, not bad. This noodles [sic] looks like it’ll hit the spot.
- Anxious Diner: Looks like you’re working really hard. I thought you were some rich person who brought their attendant out to experience life in the real world!
- Thank you... I guess?
- Anxious Diner: You’re welcome! Remember to add extra chilies—the spiciest you’ve got.
- But I am rich!
- Lycaon: ...Your order has been settled. Thank you for your business.
- Hesitant Diner: Every bowl of noodles looks so good to me...
- Lycaon: Good day. Our restaurant provides a menu service that matches you with dishes that suit your needs to increase efficiency.
- Hesitant Diner: But I don’t really have any special requests... I’ll take whatever you suggest. Is there anything you can recommend?
- Lycaon: How about this white bowl of fried BBQ noodles? It’s one of our most popular dishes.
- Hesitant Diner: That sounds pretty good, but isn’t fried BBQ a little greasy? I like eating meat, but it’s not very healthy if it’s greasy.
- Lycaon: ...Well, how about a black bowl of red chili chicken noodles? The soup isn’t greasy, and it’s good for your immune system.
- Hesitant Diner: That does sound good... but the black bowl has red chili in it. Won’t that be a bit too spicy? I can eat spicy food, so there’s no problem there, but I just don’t feel like eating something that’s super spicy...
- That’s not what “whatever” means!
- I thought you said you didn’t have any “special requests”?
- Lycaon: It’s quite alright. I understand.
- Lycaon: Master, based on this diner’s description, I have identified their main requests: meaty, but not greasy; and not spicy. Please could you suggest some dishes for them?
- Green Pepper Chicken Noodles
- Green Pepper Meat Noodles
- Bone Broth Noodles
- (correct option)
- Hesitant Diner: Wow, that sounds great, and the meat on those bones doesn’t look greasy at all. I’ll take one of those.
- Lycaon: ...Your order has been settled. Thank you for your business.
- Hesitant Diner: No, no, I should be thanking you. I’m not the type of diner with many requests. It must be a real pain for you when you get a picky eater, right?
- Lycaon: Thank you for sharing your concerns. We always try to cater to the needs of our diners, no matter the customer. I hope you have a lovely meal.
- Proxy: (As expected of Lycaon... cool, calm, and collected...)
- Proxy: (I’ve counted up all the orders of all the customers in line... Let’s hurry up and give Chop Junior the final table)
- Chop Junior: That’s it? You guys are moving fast.
- Chop Junior: Let me see... Th—This is a complete, clear table... with prominent, easy-to-read items... You really are a gem of a worker!
- Chop Junior: Oh, once I’m financially independent, I’d love to have such a capable attendant helping out with daily operations in the shop...
- Chop Junior: And just think of all the customers he’ll attract just by standing there...
- Was that last bit your point?
- Lycaon’s services cost top dollar.
- Lycaon: Your praise honors me, but you surely are joking. I am merely a humble attendant.
- Lycaon: I wonder if you might be available now to answer a few questions?
- Chop Junior: Oh, I almost forgot about all that. Go ahead, ask away! We can talk about anything you want... except my PIN.
- Lycaon: Have you seen a little girl called Lilac? She used to shop at your store quite frequently.
- Chop Junior: Li—who? Ah, sorry. My memory isn’t the greatest, and I’m always forgetting other people’s names.
- Lycaon: Well... She’s always saying things that people find difficult to understand.
- Chop Junior: Ah! I remember now. That girl who’s always talking nonsense! I know her! I saw her recently!
- Chop Junior: She just came into our store recently for some part-time work! One look tells me she’d never lifted a finger on housework at home, but she is hardworking, studious, and a pretty good person.
- Chop Junior: Speaking of which, I just paid her a big advance on her salary today. She seemed nice, and she left her student ID as collateral, so I gave her the advance.
- Lycaon: An advance on her salary... Got it. Thank you for your cooperation, you have been a tremendous help.
- Chop Junior: It’s fine, Now that you mention it, what is your relationship with that kid?
- Lycaon: Lilac is my employer. She has had some minor issues recently, and I am duty-bound to keep her safe.
- Chop Junior: So it’s like that, then... Hang on, if that kid is your boss, then does that mean (ProtagonistProtagonist)...?
- I’m Lycaon’s friend!
- Lycaon: Mmm... just as Miss Belle/Mister Wise here advised, we are close as intimate friends.
- I’m Lycaon’s master!
- Lycaon: Correct. Lady/Lord (ProtagonistProtagonist) is my master.
- Chop Junior: Ah, now I get it.
- Chop Junior: Anyway, Thiren attendant: You are very capable. If you’re after any side gigs in the future, please come and find me! I’ll make it worth your while!
