Girls' Frontline: My Apocalypse with Dolls

Page 121

"I'm sorry to disturb your private time, but I have some information you need."

Pushing her bangs aside, Mrs. Grey turned the laptop screen towards Lovan.

"The prime location you previously asked me to find in the emerging regional economic center on Wall Street in New York has already come to fruition."

The screen displays a map of what Graves calls an emerging regional economic hub, with one area marked in red.

"Are you sure? We need to secure an absolute location advantage."

In the initial stages of development, no mistakes can be tolerated...

"That's for sure. An office location is an important condition for a company, just like a foundation is needed to build a house."

"Office buildings are not only the workspace for employees, but also affect the company's external image. Therefore, when choosing an office building, companies will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the eligible office buildings according to their own needs and requirements, including the location, transportation, cost, and the soft and hard indicators such as the office building's own supporting facilities and property management."

"When choosing a location, companies should prioritize areas with a high concentration of talent, technology, information, and capital. Central business districts, in particular, gather the most advanced and comprehensive municipal, business, entertainment, cultural and educational, and residential facilities, making them the preferred choice for companies. Wall Street perfectly meets these needs, and with the White Eagle government's emphasis on this emerging area, it can be said that almost every inch of land here can meet our requirements."

At this point, Mrs. Grey gave a meaningful smile.

Luo Fan nodded: "Yes, but we only need one of the larger office buildings. We don't need to expand too much in the Wall Street area."

They don't need so many branch offices, it's unnecessary...

“I understand. With the money you previously acquired, the start-up capital is now fully prepared, and we can seize the opportunity at any time.”

Mrs. Grey opened a window and tapped a few keys on the keyboard.

"Let's do it now, but let them wait. It will take us some time to get there. As long as we own this place... Oh, and there's one more thing."

Luo Fan remembered another... purpose of his?

"Please speak, I am listening."

Mrs. Grey did not look up and continued with her work.

Luo Fan gazed into the distance, lost in thought...

"In a relatively quiet area on the outskirts of Wall Street... preferably quiet, with as much local life as possible. I'd like a shop with three floors, not too big but not too small, with plenty of rooms. Emmmm... that's it."

The man unwrapped the lollipop he had just brought out and put it in his mouth.

After clarifying all of Lovan's demands, Mrs. Grey finally raised her eyes.

She seemed a little confused: "May I ask what you intend to use it for?"

Of course, Luo Fan guessed why Mrs. Grey would ask that question.

His gaze deepened as he looked up at the oppressive sky.

"What should I do... I want to open a bar, with one floor for working and chatting with people, and the top two floors for living."

"This might be our home..."

He didn't want anything too noisy, nor did he want a villa that was so big it was almost empty; he just wanted a little space like this with his girls.

A bar would be perfect.

Chatting with girls every day, singing songs, and having a drink together—this kind of life doesn't seem so bad...

"I understand."

At this point, the two of them smiled simultaneously.

The request is very simple: just find a home for them all.

A small space, a cozy "world".

Closing the shop door might allow one to forget the hustle and bustle of the world.

Perhaps this is their little Griffin?

130 Cheers!

After a brief discussion, Mrs. Grey chose to remain on the balcony to continue the site selection process, while Lovan returned to the living room.

As soon as I entered the living room, Xiao 9 tore open a bag of potato chips and started pouring them into her mouth.

It's strange, even with all this commotion, 416 and ViVi still haven't woken up.

416 was asleep because he had been drinking, so ViVi didn't know anything about it...

But Luo Fan chose to sit back down next to Xiao 9.

"Oh, Commander, you're back."

After saying that, she handed over the potato chips in her hand.

"Ah."

Luo Fan smiled and reached out, placing the potato chip into the bag.

I took out a few potato chips and put them in my mouth.

Even though he hadn't finished the lollipop in his mouth, they stuffed potato chips into his mouth.

It tastes weird...

But these are potato chips from Xiao Jiu, how can I refuse them?!

Not to mention, after seeing the Live2D update after Xiao9's third modification, I immediately triggered the interaction.

Then, he accidentally triggered the screen flipping effect...

......

(9th Sister, smiling at the camera)

......

Waaaaah, Little 9, please take me away, Little 9!

When Luo Fan first saw Xiao 9 smile at the camera, he was stunned for a few seconds.

How strange! Let me take a few more glances...

......

So cute! I want to look at it a few more times...

......

Waaah, Little 9, please take me away, Little 9!

Honestly, Luo Fan felt his heart was melting.

Then he saw 9th Sister smiling at him like that in real life.

His heart seemed to stop for a few seconds...

He was really happy; Xiao 9 is a person who loves to laugh.

......

"Xiao 9?"

"Ok?"

UMP9 munched on potato chips and looked at Luo Fan.

"Smile, okay?"

"Okay."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao 9 gave Luo Fan a smile that mirrored the screen's flip-screen interaction.

Although it doesn't have that cat face effect, but...

Luo Fan couldn't resist and suddenly hugged the girl in front of him.

"Eh, Commander?"

Little 9 didn't react in time, so much so that a few potato chip pieces fell out of her mouth.

The man buried his face in the girl's shoulder.

"Thank you, Little 9, thank you..."

How can we allow this to happen in reality?

How could he be so lucky?

"But, Commander, I just smiled, why are you thanking me?"

"No, this is enough, Little Nine, this is enough..."

......

About twenty minutes later, some more "new guests" appeared in the living room.

16 Pigeon and the executioner woke up at the same time for some reason, and the executioner went straight to the apartment where they were.

16 Pigeons sat at the dining table, legs crossed.

When the executioner arrived, he noticed Luo Fan on the sofa.

"Yo, Commander, you're awake?"

Despite being a carefree person, the executioner still noticed 416 and ViVi sleeping soundly on the sofa and deliberately lowered her voice.

"You woke up early. By the way, what are you and 16 doing up so early?"

It was only then that M16 noticed that Luo Fan was also in the living room.

But she only glanced at it and said nothing.

“M16 and I made plans to drink yesterday. Since there aren’t many people around now, we can let loose a little… But it doesn’t seem like now is the right time for us to let loose.”

The executioner said with a smile.

It looks like it's just two old drunkards who got together for drinks...

"Count me in."

Luo Fan got up and walked towards the apartment where the executioner had come from.

"Hey, where is the Commander going?"

Little 9 looked up, somewhat dazed.

"I'll go chat with them."

"Okay, go ahead then. Come back here if you want some snacks~"

Xiao 9 remains very optimistic.

"Okay, okay, I definitely will."

Luo Fan smiled and waved his hand.

But the executioner was somewhat confused about Luo Fan's whereabouts.

"Hey? What are you going to do there?"

"Get the wine. I left it here..."

Luo Fan glanced at the empty Jack Daniel's bottle in 416 and walked toward the cabinet where he stored his other liquors.

Afterwards, Luo Fan carried about 8-9 bottles of wine back to his original apartment.

"Wow, you've been hiding so many good things."

Looking at the bottles, the executioner couldn't help but laugh.

After all, so much alcohol is a huge temptation for a seasoned drinker.

But this is only a small portion of their inventory from the past month...

"Just a little hobby of mine and 16 Pigeons."

Afterwards, Luo Fan carried the bottles and went with the executioner to the table where M16 was sitting, and placed the bottles on the table.

Luo Fan took several wine glasses from a kitchen drawer and placed them on the table.

Only when the bottles were neatly arranged on the table could the executioner discern the type and brand of the liquor.

"Tsk, still so much Jack Daniel's, M16. Your taste hasn't changed at all."

The executioner frowned, but did not feel any displeasure.
