The tavern in the center of the town. The local turmoil in the town did not affect this quiet corner.
Bawe sat at the bar of the pub with a melancholy look on his face.
No one came to the tavern tonight, and he avoided the chance of being disturbed. He recalled what happened in the morning in his mind, and Aaron's words still echoed in his ears.
Can he really find the truth?
Licking his dry lips, he reached for the wine bottle next to him.
After a moment of pause, he withdrew his hand, but still did not drink.
"What's wrong? You look unhappy tonight." Sandy's voice sounded from behind.
Along with the light footsteps, Sandy sat next to Bawe.
Bawe shook his head and didn't speak for a while. But after a long silence, he still tentatively spoke: "My father and mother... Sister Sandy, you should be familiar with them."
"Yes, it's thanks to them that I saved a lot of trouble when I purchased the goods." Sandy said in a light tone.
"They are really great, they have made a lot of contributions to the town."
"Yeah, in comparison, I really doubt whether you are their child." Sandy agreed while mercilessly insulting Bawe.
Bawe showed a bitter smile: "Yes, I am a waste and I have embarrassed them."
"What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly in love? You should have just started drinking, then played drunkenly with me and slept until the next day." Sandy was a little confused.
"No, I just feel that my life is quite boring."
As soon as he said this, Sandy slapped him on the head with such force that he almost pressed his face into the table.
"Don't talk about what you have and what you don't have! Work hard, whether it's to pay off debts or to make a living for yourself. I don't give you a job so that you can be lazy here!" Sandy said angrily.
"I'm sorry, Sister Sandy." Bawe apologized.
Seeing him like this, Sandy was a little helpless: "Okay, if you can start to think about this, it means that you have changed somewhat. Is it because of those people in the morning?"
Bawe nodded hesitantly.
"Sure enough, I feel like they are like people who bring something new wherever they go. So they asked me some of your questions, so I said it." Sandy shrugged and picked up a clean
I wiped the wine glass out of boredom.
Bawe remained silent.
"No matter what, children are the treasures of parents, and they definitely hope that you can live well. Since you have thought of this, then live a good life in the future." Sandy patted his shoulder.
jingle!
The bell at the door of the tavern rang.
"Welcome...huh?" Sandy raised his head and responded, but was stunned for a moment.
"Good evening, Miss Sandy, and Bawe." Aron straightened his clothes and said hello casually.
When Bavi heard the sound, his hands suddenly clenched and his body muscles tensed.
"You are still wandering around the town so late. You really didn't take my warning to heart." Sandy muttered.
"Sorry, I'm not a person who will change what I want to do because of other people's words." Aaron replied with a gentle smile.
"If you have the guts, learn from others." Sandy gave a thumbs up, and the latter part was addressed to Bawe next to him.
"What do you want?"
"One cookie, one barbecue, packaged barbecue, and a glass of wine, just the most ordinary thing." Aaron lined up the coins at the front desk.
"Okay, wait a minute." Sandy took the money, showed a sweet smile, went to the kitchen, and cast a somewhat thoughtful look at Bawe the moment he turned around.
Sandy left, and Aaron and Bawe sat face to face.
Aaron didn't speak, and Bawe didn't know what to say. The two fell into a very awkward situation.
After a long time, Bawe swallowed: "Did you find something?"
Hearing this, Aaron put the pocket watch on the table.
"This is it!" Bawe was excited.
Aaron pushed his pocket watch and brought it to Bawe: "You have very good relatives."
Bawe took the pocket watch with trembling hands and kept rubbing the cover of the pocket watch with his fingers.
Then, a piece of letter paper was handed to Bawe, and Aaron's voice sounded again: "And they are not only good parents, but also people with a strong sense of responsibility, justice, and courage."
"This is……"
"The message left by your parents also contains words for you. Take a look. If you really still care about yourself as their child, you may make a decision."
Hearing this, Bawe opened the letter with trembling fingers and read it silently.
Tick tock.
After a while, water dropped on the table at the front desk.
Those are tears.
Bawe bit his lips desperately to prevent himself from crying directly.
After a long while, he put down the letter and tremblingly opened the cover of his pocket watch.
"Ugh..." The moment he saw the photo, he finally couldn't hold it back and buried his head in tears.
Aaron looked away and listened quietly to Bawe's cry.
The crying gradually became fainter, but Bawe was still deeply out of control.
"Your cookies and barbecue are here." Sandy came with the delicacies, tacitly ignoring Bavi at this time, picked up the just-cleaned wine glass, filled a glass of wine and put it on the table, "I'll clean it up.
Go to the kitchen, Bawe will be on duty."
Then leave again.
Aaron, on the other hand, directly moved the knife and fork, regardless of the temperature of the cookie, and swallowed it into his stomach in three strokes. Moreover, despite eating at such a fast speed, his dining posture was extremely elegant.
Taking out a handkerchief from somewhere and wiping his mouth, Aaron looked at Bawe and was about to speak, but just in time Bawe raised his head.
The eyes were red with red eye sockets and thick bags under the eyes. He looked in poor spirits and his face was a little thin.
But the will is very strong.
"It seems you have made a decision." Aaron chuckled, picked up the food box containing the barbecue and stood up. At the same time, he picked up the wine glass and handed it to Bawei. There was a flash of green light on his fingertips and merged into the wine.
middle.
"This glass of wine is for you."
After saying that, he turned and left.
jingle!
The bell at the door symbolizes Aaron's departure.
In front of Bawe, there was only letter paper, pocket watch, and a glass of wine.
And a brass-colored seal badge symbolizing some kind of certification.
"Sister Sandy." He spoke out, "I want to take a leave."
…
After Aaron came out of the tavern, he stretched himself.
According to the agreement made before, we walked towards the east of Zhendong.
Hua Hua Hua——
He hadn't gone far when slightly disorderly footsteps swarmed out from all around, and several figures surrounded him. Although the equipment was simple, the style was uniform, and they were clearly the militia of the small town.
"Don't move! Foreigners! Why are you still walking around so late?" one of them shouted.
"What's wrong? There is no curfew in this town. I read the town notice before coming here." Aaron kept smiling, but he raised his hands in a cooperative manner.
"You are a resident of Kaba Hotel! A massacre occurred in the hotel. A large number of guests were killed, and you are the only survivor. Please cooperate with our investigation!" the man continued to drink.
"Kaba Hotel? Oh? That hotel. Are you serious? I remember there were more than just human corpses there." Aaron raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What are you talking about? There are only tragedies created by murderers!" The man frowned, not knowing what Aaron was talking about.
"Well, I see, there is still this hand." Aaron understood, and there were still a group of those people who were in the mood to stay and deal with the aftermath after he left, and were even in the mood to frame him.
"what are you talking about!"
Aaron was about to speak when suddenly, several blazing rays shot into the sky from the block not far away.
"What's wrong?!"
The man was a little panicked.
At this time, some members of this militia group suddenly noticed that the atmosphere around them had changed slightly.
"Calm down, calm down, calm down." Aaron smiled and said calm down three times in a row, the first in Common Language, the second in Earth Yanhuang, and the third in Ancient Jin.
"Those who are still conscious, open your eyes and look at the teammates around you." Aaron's voice echoed faintly, "Look carefully. Are the people around you really your teammates?"
Suddenly, a man with a dull face raised his spear and stabbed the teammates beside him without hesitation.
Fortunately, after Aaron's strange reminder, the teammate reacted in time, raised the fork in his hand and blocked the spear from the friendly force, but his movement was still a beat slow, and his arm was cut open.
"What are you doing!" He shouted his friend's name, his face full of disbelief.
Immediately afterwards, the sounds of weapons clashing sounded one after another, and the militia group suddenly fell into chaos.
On one side was a person with a dull look on his face, attacking without hesitation, and on the other side was a person with a shocked look on his face, who kept calling his friend's name but never got a response.
The true haze of the town begins to reveal the tip of the iceberg in front of people who have been deceived for a long time.
