Chapter 1197: Father, Who Is This Woman?Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“This is a bicycle. As a deliveryman, you are responsible for sending the food to the customers" hands. In order to make sure that the food stays fresh, you have to complete the delivery very quickly. Before you start your job officially, you have to learn how to ride a bicycle first,” Mag explained.
“Bicycle?” Connie walked around the bicycle. “Is it something that will run on its own once I sit on it?”
“That"s an auto-pilot car.” Mag shook his head. He did not want to continue that stupid conversation with Connie. He held the bicycle steady and got on the bicycle. “Let me show you how to ride a bicycle. You have to master it by sunset today.”
“Mm-hm,” Connie replied. She looked at Mag seriously. She had already decided that she had to work hard to stay in the restaurant, and then earn money and improve herself so that she could go back to the tribe to save her older brother as soon as possible.
That baddie had already become the new chief, and she had no idea how long her older brother could survive. Her brother would probably be killed if the baddie ended up taking full control of the tribe, so she had to find a way out as soon as possible!

Mag rode on the bicycle and gave a very detailed explanation on how to step on the pedals, how to keep the bicycle balanced, and how to break.
Mag stopped beside Connie, and asked her, “Do you understand?”
“My eyes understood.” Connie nodded.
“How honest.” Mag was speechless. He shoved the bicycle"s handlebars in Connie"s hands, and said, “Start practicing. You won"t master riding a bicycle if you don"t fall a few times.”
“Mm-hm. I will definitely master it,” Connie said confidently. She held the handlebars, and then copied how Mag got on to the bicycle. She placed both her feet on the pedals, and started swaying left and right as she tried to maintain her balance.
Mag watched at the side, and could not help but sway left and right with her.
Five minutes later, Mag looked at Connie, with her feet on the pedals and still in the same spot, swaying left and right. He could not help but say, “Are you practicing the balancing beam? You got to start moving!”
“Oh,” Connie replied. Just as she lifted one foot, the balance that she had managed to keep for five minutes was upset. The bicycle tilted to the right, and she landed headfirst right into the deep snow on the gra.s.s patch at the start.
“Aiya, I"m stuck! Save me~” Connie"s feeble cries for help came from the pile of snow as she kicked her legs helplessly.
Mag walked over, grabbed Connie"s legs, and pulled her out from the snow. This girl was very little, so she was not heavy.
When she was finally back on her feet, Connie swayed a little before regaining her balance. After that, she said in a fl.u.s.ter, “Why is the sky so dark! Am I blind?”
Mag wiped the snow off the helmet, and calmly said, “Let"s continue practicing.”
He was already slowly getting used to her stupidity. Although it was pretty funny the first time she fell, Connie actually had quite a good sense of balance, and that was a really useful talent for learning riding.
“Mm-hm,” Connie replied and continued practicing.
After the nth time Mag pulled her out from a pile of snow, Connie could finally move on the bicycle alone. Although she was not very stable, and seemed as though she was going to fall several times, she was always saved by her great sense of balance.
“Wow! I can ride a bicycle—” Before Connie even finished her sentence, she fell right into a pile of snow by the side.
Mag walked over defeatedly, picked her out of the snow, and coldly said, “Let"s continue.”
To be able to get to this level on her first time riding a bicycle was really not bad. However, in case she got conceited, Mag did not praise her.
It had been more than an hour since she started practicing. After falling multiple times, Connie did a clean drift to brake, stopping right in front of Mag. As she reached up to remove her helmet, Mag could see the heat rising above her head, but she was beaming as she asked, “I"ve mastered it, right?”
“Yes, you"ve already mastered it.” Mag looked at Connie, who was covered in perspiration but was still smiling broadly, in a slightly different light.
Usually, girls would long be squatting at the side, crying, or give up straight away after falling time and again like her.
However, Connie did not. She gritted her teeth and got up every time she fell. There were several times she picked herself right up after falling down.
This did not seem like the kitten-eared lady who"d kept whining just now.
“So can I start working right now?” Connie could not wait to start.
“No. Next, I have to bring you around for you to familiarize yourself with the streets around Chaos City. The most important thing about food delivery is to send the food quickly and accurately to the customers. After receiving the order, you need to know where you have to send the food and which route to take. These are all very important issues.” Mag shook his head, and then pointed at the top right-hand corner of Connie"s helmet.
“I"ve installed a map there. Although it cannot do real-time locating, it can automatically pan out the best route for you once you input the location.”
Connie put the helmet back on, and a map really appeared in the top right-hand corner where it was a black screen.
“Impressive.” Connie"s eyes widened. Mr. Mag was a genius. Not only did he invent the bicycle, but he also invented this incredible map.
Mag pushed his own bicycle out, and got on before he instructed Connie, “Remember, don"t take off your helmet when you"re outside. That way, no one will recognize you.”
“Mm-hm.” Connie nodded. Mr. Mag really thought things through. Moreover, this helmet was not heavy at all, and it was so warm inside she did not want to take it off once she stepped outside.
“Let"s go. I"ll bring you around Chaos City.” Mag rode off first on his bicycle, and Connie quickly climbed onto hers and followed behind him.
“Hm? Who is this cute kitten-eared big sister? Father is actually teaching her how to ride the bicycle. They even came out of the restaurant together just now. What is the relations.h.i.+p between them? Should I put it down in my notebook?” Amy muttered to herself on the second floor of the magic potion shop as she lay at the window, watching the two of them disappear into the distance.
Mag brought Connie around the southern part of the city, and brought her back to the restaurant when it was almost 5 pm.
In any case, the system only requested that Mag started doing delivery, and he had the say for everything else, so he decided that he would only introduce the delivery in a limited area.
Since he was already struggling to meet the demands of the restaurant, Mag did not consider earning extra money through delivery at all. He just wanted to settle a few orders to finish the system"s mission and get the recipe for the double-flavor hot pot.
“Father, who is this woman?” Amy walked in immediately after Mag and Connie arrived at the restaurant.
