In the meantime, while Kai was enjoying his time outside the shelter, the afternoon in New Haven‑45 was quiet.
There were no alarms, gunfire, or mechanized soldiers trying to attack them. At this time, the shelter felt almost normal.
"I want something new…" Claire muttered as she sat at one of the long wooden tables in the mess hall…
Soon, she peeled open an MRE packet she had saved in her inventory.
Earlier, she had only eaten instant noodles with a handful of moringa leaves and two slices of meatloaf. It was certainly enough to fill her for the day, but since it was peaceful, she treated herself.
She unfolded the menu card inside the MRE and smiled.
[ Menu: Beef Stew, Crackers, Cheese Spread, Chocolate Bar, Instant Coffee ]
It wasn't gourmet, but compared to noodles, it felt like luxury.
"Nice… I got a nice menu today…"
She heated the beef stew pouch over a small portable warmer, tore open the crackers, and spread the cheese across them.
