Chapter 6 Weird Atmosphere
Just under these gazes, Hannibal followed Dior to the food pickup window. Since it was an employee restaurant, there was no such thing as the "canteen aunt" here. All the food was placed in the window, and you could get whatever you want.
So soon, Hannibal and Dior took some food and sat in the corner of the cafeteria.
"I like the meat chops here, and they feel very good to chew." Dior said with a bulging mouth.
Hannibal nodded slightly, and then repeatedly cut some of the dishes on the plate. To be honest, he was not interested in these foods. He just wanted to know how many doctors and patients there were in this hospital, and it would be best if he asked something about Will, otherwise he would not have communicated too much with this strange doctor.
But at this moment
"Hello, you are the new caregiver." A man suddenly walked to the dining table and greeted Hannibal.
Hannibal raised his head a little and found that the man was not tall, wearing a white coat, and looked like a doctor. He was about 30 years old and had a round head. Although he was not old, he was a little bald.
"Hello, my name is Hannibal." He responded politely.
In fact, this person’s greetings are very abrupt. Even if he will become a colleague in the future, or if he is a warm-hearted person, he will come over to say hello when he is having a meal. Isn’t it a bit too urgent?
"My name is Edmund, I'm very happy to know you." The man reported his name: "I'm 35 years old this year, maybe you've seen it. I'm very enthusiastic, so if you have time, I can take you around this hospital, of course, we can make friends."
Hannibal had already frowned. What is this? He is not a beauty, so why would this guy greet him in this way of flattering? This feels so too.
"Enough!"
Dior suddenly interrupted the other party: "I met this Mr. Hannibal earlier than you. Didn't you see us having dinner at the same table?"
Although Dior's voice was very light, Hannibal could feel it. He was very angry, just like the possessiveness that a child felt when he learned that his friend was about to be taken away.
"Okay," the bald man named Edmund raised his hands and said, taking a few steps back and then sat back in his seat.
"Sorry, they are a little too enthusiastic, I hope they didn't scare you." Dior said to Hannibal with a smile.
"Of course not." Hannibal smiled and continued to fiddle with his food, but his mind was already full of question marks - because although his eyes were staring at his plate, he could clearly feel that the dozen gazes had not been removed from the moment he entered here until now.
"Oh, by the way." Dior said suddenly as if he was thinking of something: "What kind of drink do you like to serve when eating meat chops?"
"I don't eat meat steak, especially pork steak." Hannibal responded lightly.
"Haha, okay, it seems that you are a health-conscious person, but I am different. I have to be accompanied by watermelon juice when eating steak, right haha, I just have this habit anyway."
Hannibal nodded indifferently.
"So, can you help me get a glass of watermelon juice?"
Hannibal was slightly stunned when he fiddled with the fork of the vegetable stem, that was the feeling.
Not so obvious, but it feels a little weird.
Let's use this as an example.
Dior and Hannibal just met today, and they had only known each other for less than half an hour.
Then they came to this restaurant and took some food.
During this period, they said less than 10 sentences, which means that they were not very familiar with each other, so they only knew each other's name, or even their last name.
If it was you, would you ask the other party to help you get watermelon juice in this situation?
Well, this may not sound like a big deal, just a very small busy one.
However, Hannibal would never do such a thing, because he would not bother a new colleague he had just met because of such a small thing that he could do.
This requirement is strange
And he was sure that this was not his nervousness, because, just when Dior made this request, the atmosphere in the entire cafeteria suddenly became quiet, and the sounds of collisions and chewing between knife and fork that could be heard just now disappeared, all the people in the entire cafeteria seemed to be nervous.
Hannibal hesitated for a moment and wondered whether he would refuse the party. He wanted to ask Dior, you are not ass and can't leave the chair, so why don't you get it yourself.
But, after all, he still
"Okay." He said.
Yes, Hannibal agreed, and as he said that, he got up and walked towards the window where he could get a drink.
He clearly felt that the moment he agreed to the other party's request, the entire restaurant even had the sound of breathing, and everyone held their breath.
Hannibal walked towards the dining window as if nothing had happened. There were all kinds of juices in the drink area. The bottle of watermelon juice was placed in the center, cherry-red, and there was only one cup.
Hannibal was owed and was about to take out the watermelon juice.
But suddenly, a slender hand passed by him and took the glass of watermelon juice away first.
Hannibal looked back in surprise
He was a woman who was not very beautiful but dressed well. She was about 40 years old, but she was well maintained.
"Oh, sorry sir, I didn't notice that there is only one glass of watermelon juice left, then"
The woman handed the quilt to Hannibal and signaled that she would give it to you, but her firm look told Hannibal that I would not give it to you no matter how you want it.
Moreover, what made Hannibal care more was that the people around him seemed relieved to see this woman getting the juice first.
Hannibal looked back at Dior, then smiled with a gentlemanly demeanor: "Let's come first, ma'am."
"Thank you, oh, please call your name yet."
“Hannibal.”
"A good name, my name is Erin Erin Vornos, I'm very happy to know you." As she said that, she smiled apologetically, reached out her hand, and shook Hannibal.
Hannibal naturally would not refuse and extended his hand.
However, under his calm facial expression, the hidden doubts became even greater.
