Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Lunch

When they reached the kitchen, Fotune and Violet immediately began preparing Basil's lunch. Violet still does her job very well, she helps Fotune prepare the ingredients properly. And of course, this makes Fotune extremely satisfied.

Lunch was quickly cooked, and at this time when Fotune was making beefsteak, she spoke to Violet:

- Violet, do you see the big white cabinet outside the kitchen? You go there and get back a box. We'll put lunch in it for Basil.

- Yes, sir.

Violet quickly ran to the white cabinet that Fotune had said, and when she opened it, Violet was amazed by the scene before her eyes. Inside the cabinet are many different types of boxes. Although she knew that this large cabinet wouldn't hold a lot of things, she didn't think such a large cabinet could only be used to store lunch boxes. This is like a collection of lunch boxes, full of size, shape, and number of compartments.

Seeing Violet dumbfounded and surprised, Fotune asked:

- What's up?

- Ah, butler Fotunr,... I... which box should I get?- Violet replied awkwardly

- The blue box is the fifth row from top to bottom and the third row from left.

Following Fotune's instructions, Violet had indeed obtained a very luxurious dark green lunch box. She took the box and brought it to Fotune.

Seeing that Violet was surprised to see the cabinet, Fotune asked:

- When you learned the position of objects in the kitchen, did you not see that cabinet?

- ah... that's because... that cabinet is located outside the kitchen. So I can't open it.

Hearing Violet's answer, Fotune chuckled and thought to herself:

- "This girl really hasn't changed at all, she's still as honest as the first time I met her, but if she's honest, how can she live in this world? But that's fine, at least Basil will be by the side of someone who can be completely trusted like Violet."

Fotune is now more open to Violet, she works while talking to Violet:

- When he was young, Basil loved to eat the rice I cooked, so even though there was lunch at school at noon, Basil insisted on eating the rice I cooked. That's why, so that the master's lunch would not be boring and tedious, I bought a few more boxes of lunch, gradually accumulating as much.

- Master Basil must have been very happy about that, wasn't he, butler Fotune?

- Yes, but...

Fotune pondered for a moment, then continued with a regretful tone:

- But in recent years, since the young master took over the school, he has been busy with many things. So gradually we no longer eat lunch that we cook anymore. Master Basil also wouldn't let me bring him food to school for fear that I'd be tired. Furthermore, I cannot trust other waiters for various reasons. So just like that, these lunch boxes have not been used for many years.

- Then why did you allow me to bring lunch to Master Basil today? – Violet asked in a curious tone

- Well, you are very different from the other maids. It's like cooking with me. That's why I want to trust you for once, moreover because you saved Master Basil. On the other hand, she's someone from a faraway country,... she probably won't be related to other clans.

Responding to Violet like that, but in her mind, Fotune said to herself:

- "That's only part of the reason, the main reason is that Basil wants Violet to bring him rice. Oh my, this Basil kid is smarter than I thought. Ho ho ho ho"

Fotune chuckles in his head but still doesn't forget to put the food in the lunch box. When all the food was in the box, Fotune took out a cloth and spread it on the table. Seeing that, Violet asked:

- Butler Fotune, what is this cloth for?

- Well, this is how I learned the Japanese way of wrapping, using this cloth to wrap the lunch box, it will be easy to carry. Moreover, when Master Basil is eating, this cloth will help prevent food from spilling on the table. It's like a small tablecloth. Come over here, I'll show you how to tie it.

- Yes!

The lunch box was now beautifully packed, Fotune handed the lunch box to Violet and attached a card, she instructed:

- This is the entrance card, please use it to get the bicycle and enter the villa.

- Yes, so here I go!

Carrying the lunch box carefully, Violet walked to the parking lot that Fotune had instructed. From a distance, she saw a lovely bicycle modern and especially new, unlike her shabby and old bicycle in the country.

Putting the lunch box on the cart, Violet carefully used the card to unlock the door, when it turned into alcohol, Violet couldn't help but be surprised and exclaimed:

- Wa~ As expected, everything in the city is modern. If you have to use this card to get the bike, you won't have to worry about it being stolen. Actually, I don't think any thief can get in here. Unlike in my hometown, everything has to be careful, but who would want to steal my shabby bike.

Putting aside her somewhat amusing train of thought, Violet got on her bicycle, and on the way out to the gate, unkind words drew her attention:

- Oh my gosh, what's going on? She can take her bike. – A voice said with surprise

- Did she bring Master Basil's lunch? I have never seen this butler assigned to anyone before by Fotune. – Another voice whispered and with a little jealousy

The whispers made Violet think, but she was also explained by Fotune, so Violet also ignored the gossip. She quickly rode her bicycle to the gate. A familiar image caught Violet's attention.

The image of the maid in the morning being punished by the housekeeper Fotune to clean the toilet at this time scared Violet. She was accompanied by two other maids, but the remarkable thing was that her mouth was bleeding, and was being carried away by two other maids.

The maid's indignant gaze directed at Violet sent a chill through Violet. But very quickly all three maids disappeared from Violet's view. Although they tried to look around to find them, they couldn't find any trace of them.

Why is that maid in the morning so normal and now she's injured? There is blood on the mouth. These things made Violet both cycling and bewildered:

- "Is this the punishment for making a mistake, but the incident in the morning is not serious at all, why punish her so severely?
