Interlude: Claw Mark's Lunch_3

——"So, why exactly did you call for me and He Ti to come back alone?"

The girl previously called "Golden Snake" had sat up at some unknown time, now lazily holding a pipe in her mouth, trying to light the tobacco with both hands: "You know, boss, I'm not like those other idle folks; I have a lot of real work to do."

"Mhm, of course, I know."

The purple-haired girl nodded with a smile: "But, Snake, it's precisely because your abilities are the most reliable to me that this thing surely won't succeed without you, so that's why I specifically called you back. Please forgive me for this."

"... I see."

Golden Snake lit the pipe in her hand, took a deep puff, exhaling smoke rings: "Since you've put it that way, what else do I have to question? I am only curious about what kind of matter is so important to you."

"Naturally, it's a very important matter, but before we talk business, I think we should enjoy our lunch first, don't you?"
