This Saturday happened to be the January group event day of the Raven family. This time she seemed to have gone to the city zoo with Aunt Alice's family, so Eric had to pass the weekend alone.

Although ASUS asked him to help find the whereabouts of the lost beta armor, he actually had nothing to do before he sensed any ASUSUS' reaction or ASUSUS' notification, so he came to George's Bar to pass the time in the evening.

Just after drinking the first glass of wine, the woman I met last night appeared again.

"A glass of wild goose." Ruth ordered the bartender and sat down to Eric consciously, chuckling, "What a coincidence, we met again."

"Yes, that's a coincidence. But you came from another place to do business?" Eric asked, "Is it really good to drink so leisurely every day?"

Ruth took the bartender’s hand over Yeguchi and sighed: “Things are not going well. The pool of water in New York looks deeper than I thought.”

"Ha, it's natural, after all, this is New York."

"Speaking of this, this is the question I want to ask, right?" Ruth raised an eyebrow at him. "You look quite tender, and I doubt you are old to drink."

"Well, guess what?" Eric chuckled and took another sip of the cocktail.

"What a bad boy who is disobedient," Ruth said, paused, and then smiled softly, "But I'm the same as what I'm going to say. If I remember correctly, it seems that I'm only over ten years old for the first time I've been drinking."

"Oh? Is that?" Eric raised his eyebrows, "You say this so much that it makes people become more and more curious."

"Forget it." Ruth waved his hand, "It's better not to ask about my business, you won't want to know...and there is no part worth showing off."

"Don't be so sure." Eric took another sip of wine and said, "If you know my girlfriend's background, you would be shocked."

"Oh? Do you have a girlfriend?" Ruth asked with interest, "What kind of person is it?"

"Well, let me think about it... I have a weird and introverted personality, and I seem to have no interest in everything. I feel mysterious and mysterious, not good at communicating with people. In short, it is a very difficult guy."

Ruth laughed out loud: "Is it really good to evaluate her girlfriend like this?"

"I'm just telling the truth." Eric shrugged helplessly, then smiled, "But, although that guy is always cold on the surface, he is actually a very kind and gentle person in his heart, and sometimes he is quite cute."

"Is that right?" Ruth picked up the wine glass, shook it in vain, revealing a hint of envy, "It's so good."

"What?"

"Have a girlfriend, live a peaceful life."

Eric smiled: "If you know a little bit about our lives, you probably won't be so."

After pausing, he turned to ask, "Speaking of it, you didn't mention your own affairs at all. You said your name is Ruth, but I don't even know your last name."

Ruth waved her hand: "Don't mention it as a last name, I don't even want to recall it."

"What? Do you have any objections to my father?"

Ruth pondered for a while and said, "It's almost the same."

"Is he still alive?"

"Here," she took a sip of wine and said angrily, "It's a pity that I'm still alive and lively, but I haven't seen him for a while, and I don't want to see him again in the future."

"It seems that our family has failed similarly." Eric also showed a look of memories. "To be honest, I have never seen my father again since I was three years old. I only learned that he seemed to have died long ago. But despite this, he has been interfering with my life for so many years. It can even be said that his actions that made me come to this point today..."

Speaking of this, he smiled self-deprecatingly: "Ah~, if you think about it this way, it's really a chaotic life."

"Is that right?" Ruth said with a smile, "Are you interested in sharing it?"

"Forget it." Eric waved his hand, "It's also the kind of thing that is useless to say, and it's not suitable to say to people, so forget it."

After a meal, he thought for a while and drank the remaining cocktail in his glass.

"But even so," he said, staring at the empty wine glass, "in my heart, I still want to believe him. Although it is a bit incredible, I still always feel that the father who had left my life fifteen years ago was not a bad person."

"Is that?" Ruth's eyes also moved back to her wine glass. "So, there are many places that look quite similar. Sometimes when I'm free, I'll hold on to such a little fantasy - maybe my father is not such a bad guy? Maybe he didn't deliberately abandon me and my brother?"

"Your brother? You haven't mentioned that you have a younger brother before."

"Yes, I have a younger brother." Ruth also drank the remaining wine in the cup in one sip. "This guy is completely different from me or his father. He is just a very soft cock, a standard good man. But because of this, that guy lives very tired, and there will always be a lot of troubles to come to him, and it looks anxious."

"But you love him, right?"

"Yes, after all, it's my biological brother, my only relative - of course, we don't count our bastard father." She shrugged, "The brothers and sisters should help each other."

Speaking of this, she stopped and a string of melodious mobile phone music interrupted their conversation.

"Sorry, I have to answer this." Ruth said, getting up and walking aside, answering the phone.

"Have you found something? Auction? Now? OK...you guys are there first, I'll be there later."

After saying that, she hung up the phone and returned to Eric.

"I'm so sorry, let's go here today." She said, "I'm going to ask someone to do something, I have to leave."

"Okay. I wish you good luck."

"It's incredible." Ruth smiled softly, "I rarely talk to people so much in my life. For some reason, I just want to share this with you."

"So too." Eric took another new glass of wine from the bartender, saying, "Maybe it's because some parts of us are very similar."

"Then I'll go." Ruth waved, "I've had a great chat tonight."

Just as she said goodbye to Eric, not long after she went out, Eric's cell phone rang.

He took out his cell phone, which showed the number unknown, and it was obviously a call from ASCH.

Sure enough, after the call was connected, Colson's voice came from the other end: "Eric? Come here immediately now, we have found traces of beta armor...it is being auctioned off by the New York gang."
