5 5 301 Lucia Constructs don't need to eat. I have long forgotten how hunger feels. 1
6 6 301 Lucia Still, I don't understand why Nanami is doing this. 1
7 7 301 Without answering Lucia's question, you just take out an apple from the basket and hand it to her.
8 8 302 Try it. 9
9 9 301 Lucia ...Okay, I will. 1
10 10 401 1 36
11 11 301 Lucia carefully lifts the apple with both hands, moving it close to her mouth.
12 12 301 She opens her mouth but cannot find a good angle to bite. Her action seems awkward, as if she has forgotten how to eat food.
13 13 301 Eventually, she puts the apple between her jaws, then bites into it—
14 14 301 "Crunch."
15 15 301 The rich aroma of isoamyl acetate spreads into the air along with the crisp sound.
16 16 301 Lucia chews the apple in her mouth, then swallows it down.
17 17 301 For a second, she is stunned—
18 18 301 She then takes a second bite, chews, and swallows—
19 19 301 Followed by the third bite, chewing, and swallowing...
20 20 301 In the end, Lucia no longer chews the apple. She simply repeats the biting and swallowing actions.

28 28 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Only a few brown apple stalks are left on the table.
29 29 302 Shall I get you more food?

31 31 301 1 Lucia No... thanks... 1
32 32 204 1 2
33 33 301 Lucia I haven't felt this full ever since the outbreak of Punishing. 1
34 34 301 Lucia It's a... nostalgic feeling. 1
35 35 301 Lucia closes her eyes as if she is enjoying the once-lost sense, but soon opens her eyes again. She looks determined as usual.
36 36 301 In this virtual space, Nanami gives the human senses back to Constructs not to weaken them, but to make them enjoy the same happiness as humans.
37 37 301 Appetite is one of the most basic needs. Constructs were deprived of this happiness to succumb to the cruel reality.
38 38 301 But in Nanami's imagination, such compromise should not be tolerated. That is why she returns this feeling to Constructs, so they can enjoy the same happiness as humans in the following traditional activities.
39 39 301 It is called satisfaction.
40 40 201 1 1031001 3 1
41 41 301 1 Liv If that was also a hint, Nanami's next trial should have something to do with food, right? 1
42 42 302 Correct. When it comes to New Year— 43
43 43 302 Nothing matters more than the New Year Eve's dinner! 44
44 44 302 But tasting the food itself is not enough. 45
45 45 201 1 500166 6 1
46 46 301 1 Lucia There aren't any ingredients in the kitchen. We don't have the currency here to buy food either... 1
47 47 401 1 205
48 48 301 A "beeeeeep" sound interrupts Lucia. Tiger has already started the arcade and completed a game before anyone can realize.
49 49 301 The screen shows "You Win", followed by lots of cheerful sounds.
50 50 301 A lot of coins flow out of the machine.
51 51 204 1
52 52 301 Lucia What are these... 1
53 53 301 Lucia picks up a few coins.
54 54 301 The pattern on the front of the coin is difficult to be recognized. It barely resembles the head of a tiger.
55 55 301 It says "universal token" on the back.
56 56 201 1 500026 10 1
57 57 301 1 Lee She was well prepared. 1
58 58 302 Good job, Tiger. 59
59 59 201 1 500479 1
60 60 301 1 Tiger Meooooow! 1
61 61 301 Hearing your words, Tiger gets even more pumped up. It bashes the screen, trying to make the machine spit out more coins.
62 62 301 You quickly grab Tiger before it causes more damage. It finally calms down after some patting.

65 65 301 1 Lucia Lee and I will take care of the shopping. Commandant, Liv, please stay put. 1
66 66 302 I'll leave it to you then. 67 Be careful. 70

82 82 301 After Lucia and Lee left, Liv proposed to wash the dinnerware and flatware before they came back.
83 83 301 There are dishwashers everywhere in Babylonia, but this kitchen is rather "primitive." Only the basic cleaning tools are provided.
84 84 301 You and Liv have to use the kitchen sink to manually wash the plates.
85 85 301 Liv is doing her part with ease, while your biggest contribution is probably to prevent Tiger from making a mess.
86 86 301 "Knock-knock."
87 87 301 Someone is knocking at the door.

95 95 301 You wipe your hands dry and go to the door. As you open it—

105 105 301 Thinking back about your experience with door-knocking salesmen, you immediately take the most appropriate action—

107 107 302 (Shut the door) 108
108 108 202 1 2 1
109 109 301 You hear someone rapidly knocking on the door again.
110 110 301 Changyu (?) Don't shut us out! You will block all your fortune away!
111 111 301 Sophia (?) Fortune Kid has messed it up.
112 112 301 Fortune Kid Huh? Is it because of me?
113 113 301 Changyu (?) You were stuttering too much when you said your greeting. That's why they shut the door.
