Just as Hugo and Akita were discussing the formation of the system of flowing streets, the bartender had already brought the food and drinks that Hugo had ordered.

Akita took the first bite into his throat and was rushed by the hot momentum, and he coughed subconsciously.

Hugo smiled: "It's not the first time to drink, why are you still so embarrassed." ”

Akita hung his head in embarrassment, then swallowed two slices of ham to suppress the cough.

"Maybe the atmosphere here isn't for me. Akita found an excuse for himself, but he quickly adapted to the "uncomfortable" environment.

Hugo said, "Do you remember the first time you drank?"

Akita narrowed his eyes and said, "I thought it was a long time ago. ”

Hugo said: "You're not very old. ”

Akita scratched his head and said, "It was when I first entered junior high school, and I thought I was a big kid at that time, so I secretly got wine with my friends... Haha, you must know that it is quite difficult for minors to buy alcohol in the 13th arrondissement. ”

"After that, the composition is like many people who drink for the first time, and they can't get used to the taste at all, and two people drink less than half of a bottle of wine and then throw it all away. ”

Thinking back to the past, Akita smiled heartily, only to shake his head in the end.

"It's all gone..."

Hugo didn't know about the death of Akita's best friend, and Naomichi was his emotion about the past, and he didn't pursue it.

"What about you?" Akita asked Hugo.

Hugo thought for a moment and said, "I can't remember the exact time, I can remember that alcohol has been around me since I can remember, although I don't like drinking, but I am used to its existence." ”

When Hugo was still amnesiac, he drank wine with Hugo when he lived in the basement, and in the cold and dark East Island, wine will undoubtedly give people warmth and comfort. It wasn't until later that the two entered Original Sin, and most of the members of Original Sin also liked to seek out alcohol in order to face desperate circumstances.

I have to say that wine carries indelible memories for both Hugo and Akita.

After a short conversation, Akita said to Hugo, "You and I didn't come to drink just to talk about the past, now is not the time. ”

Hugo tapped his finger on his temple and said, "That's natural, simply filling your stomach is one of the reasons, but more importantly, we still need to gather some information." ”

Akita frowned and said, "You want to find someone through the channel of this bar?

Hugo smiled: "Naturally not, even if that Mr. Du is not completely sure to find the person we are looking for, it is even more impossible here." ”

"So what do you want?" Akita looked at Hugo suspiciously.

Hugo's fingers flicked rhythmically on the table, and said: "Since we have gone to great lengths to come to the street, we must not limit our eyes to the simple search for people, and if the search for Anne is fruitless, we will not go back empty-handed." ”

Akita was surprised: "You wouldn't have made such preparations a long time ago, you came with a preparatory plan!"

Hugo shook his head with a smile and said: "This is also a clue that I came up with not long ago, since we have not made progress in the matter of finding people, it is better to follow up from other directions." ”

Akita shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, it's all up to you, so what should we do next?"

Hugo spat out only one word: "Wait!"

Akita said, "Is it here?" Hugo nodded.

Akita looked around the inside of the bar, but saw that there were only a few vulgar men in the bar who were raising their glasses and drinking, and he could feel the strong smell of alcohol on his body no matter how far away.

There were also a few people sitting in the corner drinking silently, their eyes seemed to look at Hugo and the two of them intentionally or unintentionally, and when they saw Akita's gaze here, they hurriedly and subconsciously avoided it, thinking that these people were the "protectors" sent by the old gull.

Akita turned to Hugo and said, "I don't see any valuable people here... Are you trying to scratch your tongue in this?"

Hugo nodded slightly.

Akita chuckled, "It's really funny, like the plot of a movie." ”

Hugo said: "We are much more difficult than the main character in the movie, the people he finds are arranged in advance by the director and screenwriter, and can give him enough clues, and we can only rely on ourselves to slowly find out, if we are unlucky, there will not be the characters we want in the whole bar." ”

Akita grinned, "So you're acting on instinct!" Hugo nodded noncommittally.

Akita smiled bitterly: "In this way, we need to have more things today, and we are ready to fight a protracted battle." ”

After that, Hugo and Akita fell into relative silence, chatting with each other, and most of their energy was spent observing the actions of the people around them.

Although the voices in the bar are noisy, the topics discussed are nothing more than the same kind of timeless, and there is nothing of value to be found in the venting of abuse.

After about two hours, when both Hugo and Akita were feeling a little bored, suddenly a drunken hoarse voice caught Hugo's attention.

"Hmph! Wine nowadays is like the organ of a prostitute, and it is so disgusting that you can't swallow it. ”

Hearing him say this, the people around him burst into laughter, and at the same time shouted and cursed along with the topic, and the bartender behind the bar smiled lightly, he had long been accustomed to this, as long as the people in front of him did not make trouble, no matter how ugly the words he said, he could tolerate it.

After gaining the popularity of others, the drunken man from before stood up with his glass held high, and suddenly drank it, which sounded like a thunderbolt in the bar, and everyone present was silent, and their eyes were cast on it.

The drunken man looks to be about thirty or forty years old, with a burly figure, the well-developed muscles on his arms are comparable to the fire hydrant pipes on the street in the city, although his height is not outstanding, but it also gives people a sense of courage and toughness, his long dark brown hair is wet and scattered, and his bronzed rough skin makes people judge that he is actually living by the sea at first reaction.

"This glass of wine, I want to salute the great free ancestors!" After saying that, he raised his wine glass high, and the others present also raised their wine glasses, and shouted in unison: "To the great free ancestors!"

Hugo noticed that this action was made by all but himself and Akita, and even the watchdog sitting in the corner and the bartender behind the bar raised their glasses.

Seeing this scene, Hugo hurriedly glanced at Akita, and Akita immediately understood and raised his wine glass so that no one else could see the slightest mistake.

Immediately, in the midst of a violent roar, everyone in the bar drank all the wine in their glasses.
