Gameplay Notes

Dialogue
- You meet up with Soldier 11 at a Sixth Street alley corner
- (Talk to Soldier 11)
- Soldier 11: Sorry, I'm a bit late.
A bit?
- Soldier 11: Sorry, I'm very late.
It's already late night...- Soldier 11: I won't make excuses, and I can't tell you any related information.
- Soldier 11: But... thank you for still waiting for me.
- Soldier 11: This noodle shop is one of the main reasons I come to Sixth Street...
- Soldier 11: You're another reason, of course.
Really?
- Soldier 11: I don't need to lie to you.
I'm flattered.
- Soldier 11: ...I thought you knew.
- Soldier 11: The presence of a familiar individual in a bustling neighborhood always gives me a different feeling.
Is the noodle shop open now?
- Soldier 11: General Chop sometimes makes me food outside of work hours.
- Soldier 11: Being in the military means my free time is often not in my hands.
- Soldier 11: Late one night, I was coming back from a mission and was walking through Sixth Street wounded...
- Soldier 11: General Chop opened up the store despite just closing — all so he could give me a bowl of noodles.
- Soldier 11: I can still remember the spiciness of those noodles like it was yesterday. I've come by regularly since then.
Sometimes I feel like taking a stroll over to your place, too.
- Soldier 11: ...I know some officers sneak out in jeeps with their loved ones for joyrides around the compound.
- Soldier 11: Such loose discipline can only weaken the resolve and combat readiness of a military force.
- Soldier 11: The yellow ribbon tied to the oak tree will be long faded before their loved ones return from the Hollow.
- Soldier 11: I'd never take you on the compound with me unless we were on a mission together. I hope you understand.
- Soldier 11: Oh right, I asked General Chop to hold two bowls' worth of noodle ingredients for tonight.
- Soldier 11: ...But most of the ingredients were for two bowls of super spicy noodles. Is that gonna be too spicy for you?
It's too spicy...
- Trust increase with Soldier 11
- Soldier 11: I won't force you. Guess both bowls will be mine then. You can have a soda while you watch me eat.
- Soldier 11: That was a joke. I'm not incapable of humor, just bad at it... Judging by the look on your face, that hasn't changed.
I'll do my best.
- Significant Trust increase with Soldier 11
- Soldier 11: Great. Based on prior experience, you'll have a cold drink first, right?
- Soldier 11: Am I rambling too much? We're just here for noodles after all.
- Soldier 11: Let's get going.
- (While following Soldier 11)
- Soldier 11: This is a safe neighborhood.
- Soldier 11: They fix broken streetlights pretty quick around here.
- (Near the newsstand)
- Soldier 11: Howl's asleep...
- Soldier 11: Keep your steps quiet, this is also a test.
- (If Soldier 11 is too far away)
- (Version 1)
-
- Soldier 11: Too slow.
- Soldier 11: But you're not a soldier, I can wait for you.
- (Version 2)
-
- Soldier 11: Am I... moving too fast...?
- Soldier 11: Keeping formation is every squad member's duty... Got it.
- (Upon arriving at Waterfall Soup)
- Soldier 11: Go ahead and order.
- (Talk to Soldier 11)
- General Chop: We're all sold out of noodles today, not a single noodle left...
- General Chop: Unless you're with that young girl over there... In which case I'm sure I can manage something!
I'm a regular here too...
- General Chop: Hahaha! (Wise, you're even better at sulking than your sister!Wise, you're even better at sulking than your sister! /
Belle, you sulk even better than your brother! How should I put this?Belle, you sulk even better than your brother! How should I put this?)
- General Chop: Hahaha! (Wise, you're even better at sulking than your sister!Wise, you're even better at sulking than your sister! /
Why does she get special treatment?- General Chop: I don't give her special treatment because she's a regular. I treat all regulars equally.
- General Chop: The reason... well, you can pick any excuse you like! "Sales of super spicy bowls have been poor" or "She reminds me of my daughter."
- General Chop: So, two super spicy noodle bowls, one without the spice — take a seat, and it'll be ready in a sec!
- You enjoy some noodles together with Soldier 11... General Chop doesn't join in the conversation but does give a few extra servings to Soldier 11.
- Soldier 11: These kinds of late nights are just perfect for a bowl of noodles, and surgical taskforce assault. Two of my favorite things.
- Trust increase with Soldier 11
- (Idle)
- Soldier 11: ...I'm feeling a little drowsy. Is this the noodles... No, it's the night.
Trivia
- In the Chinese title, while 小灶 can also be used figuratively for "special treatment", the term originated to specifically designate the mess hall where a restricted group of high-ranking cadres are served higher-quality food compared to the lower-ranking soldiers.
- "The yellow ribbon tied to the oak tree" refers to the practice of tying a yellow ribbon to a tree as a way of remembering or welcoming back loved ones who are serving in the military or who were imprisoned. The practice itself was popularized by the 1973 song "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree."
