"Eh?"
"what?"
"guest.."
"I?!"
Luo Chen pointed, and the maids on the scene all went into chaos.
Misaki Ayuzawa, in particular, was completely stunned, her expression blank.
Fortunately, as the store manager, Hyodo Satsuki possessed basic professional qualities and reacted quickly. Even though she didn't notice anything unusual in Luo Chen's eyes and expression, she still cautiously and warily said:
"Guest, if you have any questions, please be sure to speak to me. I am the manager here."
Luo Chen knew they might have misunderstood again, so he explained frankly, "I am the young master of the JS Research Institute in Adachi Ward. I don't know if you've heard of the JS Research Institute..."
"Fine, it doesn't matter if I haven't heard of her. Anyway, I urgently need a maid to be our JS research group's housekeeper, and I've set my sights on her."
The amount of information is enormous.
The maids were stunned once again.
Hyodo Satsuki was surprised to learn that he knew shogi, and murmured with his mouth slightly agape, "The young master of the JS Research Institute..."
"Of course, Ms. Manager, please don't misunderstand. I'm not trying to poach her. Misaki can still work at Maid-Latte before 5 p.m., but after 5 p.m., she will need to help out at JS Research Institute."
"Furthermore, I hope that Misaki's work at Maid-Latte will only involve learning maid skills from all of you, and that she will not serve anyone other than me."
"I will pay Maid-Latte an extra 20 yen per month as Misaki's training fee. You can also use this money to find a new maid to help in the shop... I will also pay Misaki's monthly wages separately according to her work."
Luo Chen continued.
"Can't!!"
After hearing all this, the first and most vehement reaction came from Ayuzawa Misaki. Her eyes widened, and she angrily said to Luo Chen, "That sounds nice, but this is clearly poaching! I will never betray Maid-Latte, and I will never let the store manager and the others be sad... Waaah! Waaah!"
Suddenly, I couldn't speak.
Misaki Ayuzawa's legs were held down by the red-haired bear maid, her left hand was held by the blonde maid, and her right hand was held by the bespectacled maid.
His mouth was tightly covered by Hyoudou Satsuki!
Misaki Ayuzawa was shocked, not understanding why everyone was treating her this way.
Hyodo Satsuki looked at Luo Chen, her eyes shining: "Is the guest really the young master of the JS Research Institute? The Adachi Ward JS Research Institute?"
Apart from her, Erika and the other two were also very excited.
Luo Chen was surprised.
It seems the store manager isn't the only one who knows about shogi.
"Let me think about how to prove my identity... Hmm." Luo Chen thought for a moment, took out his phone, and made a call to the Adachi Ward JS Research Institute official in front of Hyodo Satsuki.
Jingle Bell!
"Moshi moshi, Adachi Ward JS Research Institute, may I ask..."
“It’s me,” Luo Chen said.
"Young Master?"
The teacher on the other end of the phone sounded surprised, asking, "Why are you making this call?"
"Just to prove my identity," Luo Chen chuckled, then handed the phone to the stunned Hyoudou Satsuki.
"Moshi moshi~"
"Wow! Murasame-sensei! Is that Murasame-sensei?"
"Yes, yes! I understand! You are the youngest and most intellectual teacher in this year's JS graduate program, and the students you led in the last JS graduate student membership assessment were all amazing!"
"So cool! Skull!!"
Hyodo Satsuki excitedly chatted with the person on the other end of the phone.
Luo Chen was quite surprised; he hadn't expected that even Murasame-sensei was so famous.
He joined the JS research group around the same time as him, and neither of them had much seniority.
Judging from this rhetoric, they probably benefited from the influence of Yaksha Shin'i and the others!
Although these elementary school students' initial membership assessment battle wasn't as dazzling as Hinatsuru Ai's yesterday, where she directly defeated Kuruno, it was still quite impressive.
Any one of them, once released, would absolutely attract fierce competition from researchers all over the world.
Hyodo Satsuki chatted excitedly for two or three minutes, but fearing she might delay the other person's business, she reluctantly hung up the phone.
"Can we confirm their identities now?" Luo Chen asked with a smile.
"Yes, of course! I didn't expect our guest to be the young master of the JS Research Institute, and to grace Maid-Latte with his presence. It's such an honor!"
Disappointed by the phone call ending, Hyodo Satsuki suddenly realized that there was something even bigger in front of her, and became excited again.
"So this is the most mysterious young master of the local JS research institute~"
"The young master of the JS research institute, oh dear!"
"He didn't even show up for the last membership assessment. I didn't expect him to be so young."
Erika, the blonde maid, and the girl with glasses were also extremely excited, their attitudes completely changed. Before, they only showed a formulaic smile for the sake of service, but now, their eyes were full of admiration!
After all, the young master of the JS Research Institute and the controller of the Young Shogi Prodigy Creation Camp is a mysterious figure in Adachi Ward, almost a legendary one.
Misaki Ayuzawa, however, remained completely bewildered.
Her family was quite poor, and she spent her days either studying, working, or helping with housework. She had no time to learn anything else, let alone shogi.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Misaki Ayuzawa made a few more "uh" sounds.
Hyoudou Satsuki released his grip.
"call!"
Misaki Ayuzawa breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked, "Manager, what exactly happened?"
Hyodo Satsuki laughed and said, "Misaki-chan, the choice is yours. You have a tremendous opportunity right in front of you."
The man in front of you is the young master of the local JS research institute, a very young and capable individual. By following him, you can learn a lot.
Of course, most importantly, remember that you gritted your teeth and chose to work here because Maid-Latte paid well.
If you work as a research manager for the JS project under the young master, you'll only get a higher salary, and it will also greatly benefit your future career development.
"Hey Misaki, take a look at this."
The bespectacled maid Subaru found information about the Adachi Ward JS Research Institute on a search engine, along with a long list of honors.
After staring blankly for a moment, Ayuzawa Misaki looked at Hyoudou Satsuki and subconsciously expressed her loyalty: "Manager, I don't want to betray Maid-Latte..."
"Hehe~ Silly child." Hyodo Satsuki laughed and waved her little hand, saying, "No, Misaki-chan, the young master just said that even if you go to work as his housekeeper, you can still work and study at Maid-Latte until 5 o'clock."
"But!" Misaki Ayuzawa was clearly still a little confused and hesitated.
Hyodo Satsuki understood, and turned to her pleadingly, saying, "Young Master, could you please give Misaki-chan some time to consider? This child can be a bit slow at times, but I'll definitely give you a definite answer tomorrow!"
"of course."
Luo Chen wasn't in a hurry. Today or tomorrow, it didn't really matter. So he stood up and said, "In that case, I'll leave first and come back tomorrow afternoon."
"Hi~!"
Hyodo Satsuki breathed a sigh of relief, flashed a big smile, and together with everyone else, saw Luo Chen off.
At the door, they all bowed and said, "Master, please take care and welcome back next time!"
Luo Chen felt something was off, but also inexplicably comfortable. He sighed inwardly, no wonder maid cafes are so popular.
I took a taxi.
Come back home!

Chapter 43 The Problem with the Yasha God's Heavenly Robe
Ever since watching Hinatsuru Ai's amazing match yesterday, Yasha-shin Ten'i has been unable to sleep.
I tossed and turned all night, and today, I spent the whole day in JS graduate class feeling completely out of it. I felt like I was thinking about something, but at the same time, I felt like I wasn't thinking about anything at all.
The key is.
A certain hateful face keeps popping into my head.
"Don't think about it! Don't think about it! Don't think about it!"
For the nth time today, Yasha God Ten'i clutched his head with both hands and shook his head violently, trying to drive away everything about Luo Chen from his mind.
Hmph! The master she's looking for must be, absolutely, the world's most skilled shogi player.
Just a mere young master!
