It was daybreak.

Sleeping in a hotel was never as comfortable as the bed, or the home, that one was used to.

Zhang Zian got out of bed right as his alarm went off. He woke the elfins up and started to prepare breakfast for them.

The film crew was in charge of preparing food for Famous, so there would be no issues for its meals, but the food for the other elfins would have to be prepared by Zian himself. Before they had set off for their trip, Zian had bought a few packets of chicken slices that bodybuilders usually ate––those instant types that were ready to be consumed after they were heated up. Every packet had smaller, separate packages wrapped within them, so there was no worry about the leftovers––if there were any––going bad.

The chicken slices were definitely not as fragrant as the ones that were freshly prepared, and it did not have any extra seasoning included in it; it was basically plain chicken meat prepared for passionate bodybuilders and, most importantly, it was convenient. Zian would have faced some difficulties in taking care of the meals for the three elfins if it was not convenient.

There was also a separate bag that Zhang Zian had prepared for Richard.

Even though Fina grumbled that the food was not good, it still ate more than the rest of the elfins.

China's time zone was seven hours ahead of Germany, so it would be in the afternoon there. Zhang Zian sent both Pi and Lu Yiyun a message, checking on how things were going within the shop. Pi and Lu Yiyun both replied that everything was all right.

Zhang Zian thought about his conversation with Professor Wei Kang the day before. The expedition dates had yet to be confirmed and there was also the chance that the school might disapprove of his participation in the expedition. Since the situation was still open to change, Zhang Zian temporarily had no intention of sharing it with the elfins until everything had been confirmed. Even if the school decided to disapprove of his participation, Zhang Zian had decided to find out more about the expedition team's itinerary and join them at his own cost. It was still better than going alone.

As for assisting Wei Kang in the matter of looking for Egyptian Maus––if Fina was there, and as long as Egyptian Maus still existed in Egypt, then there was a very high chance that Fina would be able to locate them.

While the elfins were having their meal, Zian opened up the schedule arrangement sent to him by the film crew and carefully browsed through it.

Today was the opening ceremony for the Berlin Film Festival and they were required to participate in walking the red carpet.

Tomorrow was going to be more interesting; it was the premiere of the Dog Warrior film.

Although the Berlin Film Festival wasn't the most famous film festival out of the top three European film festivals, every festival had its own individual pride. The Berlin Film Festival, for example, had stipulated that the films participating in the segment for their main competition had to be a film that had not participated in any other film festivals prior. Most of the films were world premieres, or at least overseas premieres.

It could be said that the Dog Warrior film crew that had worked overtime, pushing forward their after-effects and editing work, had bet everything on the Berlin Film Festival.

Aside from the main competition segment, the Berlin Film Festival also had other segments that included a few other competitions and out of competition segments. In particular, there was a ”Generation” segment, which included two competitive sub-segments: Kplus and 14plus.

To date, Generation had a 40-year-long history. The films that were played under that segment were all meant for the younger generations. This was a very unique aspect of the Berlin Film Festival when compared with the other film festivals: it clearly showed that the Berlin Film Festival organizing committee valued the younger generation and placed a lot of importance on them.

Kplus was for kids that were above the age of four, while 14plus was for teenagers above the age of 14.
