Day and night, Hualan City, Chandelier Cafe, a man wearing ordinary sportswear and shaking a rag cap opened the door here, and successfully attracted the attention of all the guests with his non-mainstream dress. :"whispering sound……"
"You just like this tone... don't you?"
He glared and forced the sight of several ordinary white-collar workers in futuristic tights to look away, then turned around with disdain and took his steps towards a corner of the coffee shop. A few vague glances immediately flew away from that place, hurriedly passing by the man's figure, and then dissipated some of their surprised emotions into the nearby air in various ways: "That woman...is actually waiting for him?"
"Do all the ladies nowadays like this style?"
"This old sporty boy style... well, maybe it does have some appeal."
"But this is too vulgar! And the difference in temperament is a bit big..."
"Of course it's big."
Facing the woman's slowly raised gaze, the man under the rag hat showed a glimmer of light in his eyes, then lowered the brim of his hat and sat down in front of the woman in evening dress without hesitation. : "Meetings with netizens are often like this, because you never know what the person who has been with you on the other side of the Internet for a long time... looks like."
"Ha..." The woman with a cold temperament let out a low laugh, which dissolved the air that had been frozen around her: "The coach's style is very easy to recognize. As long as he speaks... I can recognize it."
"Oh? Tell me."
"Relaxed, laid-back, at home...and very confident."
The woman put down the coffee in her hand and raised her chin with one hand: "Even such a request was agreed to without hesitation."
"Aren't you the one who used the consequences of deception as a threat?" Duan Qing said angrily: "How dare I not come?"
"But this is already my third cup of coffee...you're nearly half an hour late."
"Well... you know, as a person with family affairs, trying to evade a good opportunity requires a lot of technical skills..."
"Is there something going on at home? I think you have room at home, right?" The smile on the woman's face became even brighter: "I still vaguely remember... When commentating on the finals, a little girl's voice rang out several times. With..."
"Ah hahaha, Qianzhihe, you should still remember the little girl who lived in our house." Duan Qing scratched his cheek: "She also remembered you and told me that you were a very powerful person. Guy...how are you, do you feel happy?"
"are you happy?"
The woman smiled and arched her eyebrows, but her eyes turned around Duan Qing's head: "But I remember... Sister Mengzhu also came to Hualan City, and that Xiao Hongchen... you Fool Adventure Group , you should be taking advantage of this UEFA Cup game to get together for a party, right?"
She put down her hands, and her deep eyes fell on Duan Qing's eyes as the surface of the coffee rotated. The air that was gradually cooler as she entered the night gradually became colder with her breathing: "And that Lou Yu Sorrow..."
"Are you... all together now?"
"Well……"
Duan Qing's expression gradually became more solid, because he suddenly remembered something he had said casually before: "Well... what is Lou Yushang, a name? Hahahaha, sorry, I don't understand very well... …”
"A professional player who disappeared for so long suddenly appeared in the game, and then suddenly joined a little-known adventurer team. Do you think everyone is stupid and can't see anything?" Xue Linghuan The cold voice said: "What's more, the Time Witch Whispering and the Killing God's Code, two former members of Cruhid?"
"Do you think that any player on the road can win Duan Fenglei's trust and at the same time get several other big guild members to cooperate with their full strength? Can they just fight side by side with the uncrowned king Huanmeng?"
"Do you think... any ordinary team of adventurers can complete the previous march to save the principality, and finally dispel the mysterious purple light and force back the imperialists who have reached the Parliament Square?"
"How long...how long do you want to deceive me?"
"..."
The eyes secretly looking in this direction suddenly and quietly retracted, and at the same time they made gloating sounds like "Two people had a fight." The woman who had been staring at Duan Qing did not care at all about the comments around her. He just looked at the silent man in front of him with his cold eyes that were hard to look at. The imaginary retorts and nonsense did not appear in front of her, and the nervous explanations and affectionate pleas did not appear in her ears as expected. Only the puzzled figure belonging to the waiter relaxed the atmosphere. Slowly walked to Duan Qing's side: "Sir, may I ask..."
"Ah, do you have Blue Island Coffee?"
"Blue Island? Sorry, we have never heard of this name. If it is Blue Mountain..."
"No, forget it."
As if he had figured it out, Duan Qing let out a long breath: "Let's have a cup of Coolie Mopa."
He smiled, waved away the waiter, then returned to his normal expression, and placed his hands on the table opposite the woman: "Even if Huanmeng asked me a question in person, I have given a corresponding answer, so ...I'm sorry, you may have too many ideas."
"I am definitely not the person you imagined." He said solemnly: "No matter who you think, I am definitely not."
"..."
The woman did not ask again, but looked at Duan Qing's face with aggressive eyes, as if hoping to get a true answer from the other party, while also thinking about the meaning of the awkward words just now. The surroundings of the coffee shop held their breath for a moment again because of the drama between the man and woman in the middle of the night. Several customers who wanted to leave also stopped for a moment because of this unexpected discovery, but the voice belonging to Duan Qing echoed immediately. Every corner of this air shook everyone's chins and eyeballs: "And..."
"I will never fall in love with you, do you understand?"
"you……!"
The woman blushed instantly and raised her arm subconsciously. Then when the surrounding ice and snow aura suddenly collapsed, she waved it to Duan Qing's face as everyone wanted: "What did you say?"
"Ah? Did I understand it wrong?"
"You, you... you shameless..."
"Hey, even if you don't regard me as your coach, why don't you waste our precious time together, okay? How can it be appropriate for girls to do things casually..."
"You are shameless! You bastard!"
"Well, if what I said is wrong, it's much better for you to say it directly than to take action. Otherwise, you will have to pay another compensation before my coffee is served...Okay, okay, I know you are rich, But money can’t be wasted like this! If you finally get an idea and run away, you can’t even afford these two...oh, five cups of coffee if you sell me!"
In the corner, Duan Qing, who was trying to grab the other person's wrist, was entangled with the woman across the table, and then suddenly separated on both sides amidst the footsteps of the waiter behind him gradually approaching. The woman, whose face was still red with anger, stared at the man in front of her hatefully, as if she wanted to eat him alive. However, Duan Qing, who took his coffee, did not show any consciousness of feeling this anger: "Huh... I finally turned down the party over there, but now I have to come here to suffer your anger..."
"You, what did you say?"
"Qianzhihe just said he wanted to have a party, the kind that Mengzhu personally initiated."
Facing the still angry woman, Duan Qing actually explained to himself: "The game is over, and everyone has no reason to stay here to continue, so we plan to get together again and then go our separate ways. But I thought about it, anyway, we will often meet in the game in the future, so it doesn’t matter if we don’t see each other this time, maybe you are more suitable to be accompanied by someone tonight..."
"..."
"Ninglan didn't come at all. Yu... The guy who was talking about Xu Yu Liushang is definitely not the person I want to see now. The little girl collected a lot of money from me, and she will probably say a lot of things that I don't know what to do with her. If I put it somewhere, plus the Thousand-Zhiked Crane holding me back for no reason... this last gathering might be quite embarrassing."
Duan Qing wiped away a lot of unknown secrets lightly, and took a sip of the extremely bitter coffee in his hand: "I originally thought that this choice was the proud one after weighing it for a long time, but it turned out I didn’t expect…well, you actually like drinking coffee?”
"Huh? Well, um..."
The woman who was awakened from a certain thought nodded her head, and then lowered her head slowly: "That... was originally just something used to refresh myself when I worked too long in the past, but ended up drinking it for a long time..."
"Ah, I understand, the so-called love grows over time... Hey, hey, don't do it, don't do it, what are you thinking about in your little head?"
After stopping the opponent's right hand that was about to be raised again, Duan Qing said with a sullen smile: "It should be much better now, disciple... oh no, student?"
"...I was carried away to the ends of the earth by your words, and I forgot what I originally wanted to say."
The woman let out a long breath, and her white and beautiful fingers slowly touched the rim of her cup: "But... my mood is indeed much better."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome."
Duan Qing blinked: "It is also the responsibility of a coach to rack your brains for students' psychological problems. This small thing is not difficult for me. As for those problems you had before... God knows what answer you really want to get. Anyway, we have cooperated so many times, you should know..."
"I'm a very ordinary honest person." He said with a smile: "I won't lie to you, right?"
"...I hope so."
The woman said coldly, but after a moment, she relaxed her tense face again, and then nodded slightly relieved under the gaze of that ordinary face.
“A pleasure to work with.”
“A pleasure to work with.”
The two coffee cups touched each other gently in the air, and then separated. However, the clear and crisp sound of the collision slowly spread to the seemingly invisible starry sky as a certain atmosphere filled the air.
Regarding the content and final result of this night conversation in the coffee shop, no one in the professional world knew for a long time. However, many people knew about the anger Duan Qing endured from within the adventure group in the free world. Witnessed it - when a man was driven out of the street by Mengzhu's roar, the long queue of players thought that there was another sacrificer who had just failed to show off, and guarded the door. Several members of the Fool's Adventure Group ignored Duan Qing's gaze, which made them become more and more firm in their conjecture: "Hey, isn't it just letting you off once? Although it has been done many times in the game, in reality This is the first time in my life..."
"Moshang Qingshan! What are you still mumbling about?"
"No, no! Absolutely not!"
Just before the onlookers were about to recognize his identity, Duan Qing, who was covering his head, stood up on tiptoes and left this place of right and wrong with a long line of people at a speed unimaginable to others - right there Not long after the free world was re-opened, the Fool Adventure Group, where Duan Qing and others belonged, experienced a blowout increase in reputation, and the scope of this improvement was not the aborigines of the free continent, but the real people. player. After piecing together the ins and outs of the miracle that happened on the night of the finals through various channels, the online players in the Principality gave up the idea of celebrating, and then followed the guidance of Yare Street and ran to the door of the Adventurers Association. After a short period of confusion and explanation, Feriston, who looked calm, finally understood the reason why these people came to the door. Then he straightened his jacket amidst everyone's expectations, and announced something expressionless that made the following paragraphs... The content that gave Qing and others a headache: "The Fool's Adventure Group... currently only has six people."
"If you want to join, I will naturally not object, but in order to maintain the order of the Adventurers Association... I still recommend that you line up and submit your application."
Stand in line with your sister...can you persuade them to leave first?
This was Duan Qing's first thought when he saw this scene. However, looking at the players who were still discussing the "Pamir Parade" in the queue, he helplessly retreated into the darkness of the alley. Among them: "That's all, if you can escape the first grade of junior high school, you can't escape the fifteenth grade..."
"Are you afraid?"
A middle-aged man's voice slowly rose from Duan Qing's side, and then came to him with a slightly sarcastic smile: "Pigs will naturally be killed when they are fattened, and people will naturally be afraid when they become famous..." .”
"...I won't cause any trouble to you."
Looking back at the familiar scarred face, Duan Qing asked helplessly: "And...what are you here for?"
"Of course it's not to admire your thriving adventure group."
Duan Fenglei laughed softly twice, then turned around with his hands behind his back: "This is a new version..."
"I came here because I naturally want to have a discussion with you."
