"Are we going back now?"
Zhou Jinru also took out his mobile phone and typed: "Go buy some gifts, you can't go back like this."
He took Platinum to a cake shop located in the corner of the business district.
There was such a luxurious treatment in the land of the great knights. Bai Jin was surprised to find that she had never heard of this store before.
"Come back tomorrow, it's closed today."
When the store door was pushed open, a crisp voice came from inside, and he sounded like the owner of the store.
Not only did Zhou Jinru not go out, but he helped hang up the "Closed" sign, making him look like the store manager.
There is something hidden.
Bai Jin obediently hid behind and kept observing the decorations of the cake shop. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't see anything strange.
Of course she couldn't tell because this was just an ordinary cake shop.
The hostess wearing a chef's hat came out and immediately saw Zhou Jinru in front of the counter, just like the time they met a few years ago.
"Replacement again?"
Zhou Jinru: "..."
What is this word?
Platinum on the side was secretly surprised. The shop owner looked too young. Even though he wore light makeup and dressed more maturely, he was still essentially a teenager, seemingly a little younger than Amiya.
What do you mean, the person has changed again? The doctor has brought other people here?
"Okay, I won't ask you, dear customer, what kind of dessert do you want?"
Seeing Abigail's business smile, Zhou Jinru couldn't help but have a headache, so he had to say: "Bring some of everything, I want to take it back."
The big banshee's smile faded: "Rhodes Island has entered the realm of the grand knight?"
"I brought a few people here first, and there are others behind."
"Looks like I'm going to see an old friend too."
Abigail now made several desserts that were both good in appearance and quality. Zhou Jinru wanted to help when packing them, but she refused without hesitation, as if she wanted to draw a clear line with him.
"You are a guest today. Guests can just stand aside and wait."
Zhou Jinru, who couldn't laugh or cry, walked out of the cake shop carrying large and small bags. The big banshee closed the door in front of him, as if he had met a bad customer.
When he and Shirogane got into the taxi, the girl was full of curiosity, such as who the owner of the shop was, what his relationship was with the doctor, and why he knew so much about Rhode Island's schedule. She was really curious. If it hadn't been for the fact that she couldn't speak because of her throat, she would have asked Out.
"She is a friend I met a long time ago. I also came to the Great Knight Territory a few years ago, and I met you Baijin once. Maybe you have forgotten, that is not important."
Platinum leaned on his shoulder and put the phone in front of him, with a line of words stopped in front of the cursor.
Would you like to know my real name?
Zhou Jinru tilted his head, leaning his face against the girl's hair, and also typed: Your action code name and real name are separate. This is the rule of the Wuzhou Alliance.
Platinum: There are too many unruly people, and returning to this city reminds me of many good and bad memories.
Zhou Jinru: If you want to say it, I am willing to know, but then there will be no way back for us. If, well, I mean if, you may repeat the path of the previous Platinum, are you willing to do so?
This sentence seemed to be a torture that hit the depths of the soul. The girl's slender fingertips paused at the edge of the screen. She took a deep breath. Her movements were very light and slow, and the letters gradually weaved into a name.
Hinterlea.
She made her decision and was ready.
Zhou Jinru could not refuse.
"What a beautiful name," he exclaimed.
"That day won't happen, I promise."
…
The Carters girl, who lives alone in the Grand Knights Territory, finished her day's work and returned to her residence carrying affordable food packages.
The slightly narrow room had a bed and a low wardrobe with a TV on top and the remote control beside the bed. The place she usually used to write and eat was the dresser next to the bed.
This kind of life is in sharp contrast to the luxurious theme of the Grand Knights.
The reason why she chose this room, which was one-third more expensive than a similar rental house, was simply because it had a narrower private bathroom.
Boom, boom, boom.
There was a knock at the door, first slowly and then urgently.
"coming."
Miss Carters opened the door, and at the same time she already had the image of the other person in her heart, not because she had clairvoyance, but because the other person had come too many times.
Sure enough, the person standing at the door was a professional woman with a knight's collar. She was wearing expensive-looking formal work clothes and handed over the gift with a smile.
She said respectfully: "Miss Yelena, did you work overtime today?"
"What are you doing here again?"
Yelena did not accept the woman's gift, frowning, thinking about whether to kick her out immediately.
The woman first placed the gift next to the TV, then took out the business card from her purse and handed it over with both hands: "Miss Yelena, please accept it."
Caitlin Ramones.
Carters didn't answer either and rejected the other party's request with his own attitude.
The career woman, Caitlin, was not angry at all even if she was rejected. Her smile became even stronger and she flattered her: "Miss Yelena's life is too hard. You obviously have better capital, why don't you make it your own?" What about the beneficial part?”
"not interested."
"Think about it again," Caitlin took two steps back, exited the room, and bowed to Yelena, "With your ability, you can definitely become the fastest rising legend in Casimir's history. I will answer your call at any time. I won’t disturb your rest, goodbye.”
Caitlin turned around and left without any entanglement.
Yelena closed the door expressionlessly and saw the business card placed next to the gift.
The guest just now, in fact, is not even a guest. Caitlin's profession is very common in Casimir. It is called a knight detective. She serves the company she is in and digs out all the reserves who may become competitive knights.
Ever since the day Yelena entered the Grand Knight Territory, she had been targeted by Caitlin. She was rejected many times, but she still took the trouble to visit her and gave her gifts every time.
Become a reserve knight, then debut as an independent knight, then have your own title, enjoy the glorious moment that attracts everyone's attention, live in a mansion, drink famous wine, eat big meals, one person is inferior to ten thousand people.
Yelena doesn't want this kind of life at all. She is a warrior, a powerful warrior of the Integrated Movement. She is Frost Star.
Even if a good life is within reach, she will turn a blind eye.
Nothing can corrode a warrior's soul. She made up her mind long ago that her life would be spent fighting for the infected, rather than enjoying it.
"These are the two gifts again, snowfield waffles and vodka."
