Chapter 319: The Fog of the Holy Capital
"What would you like a drink?" Belle asked, in her usual tone, not too emotional. Her emotions are always well controlled, just thawed, and it won't take long for her to freeze again.
Du Yueming thought for a while, he didn't study much about wine, what he knew, the one who forced the bar to be a little higher was the cocktail "Margaret", and the round-faced man who called himself a chicken had invited him to a drink in Watchman Town, so he had always had an impression.
"Then have a Margaret. Du Yueming couldn't think of any good choices.
Belle took out the glass and the lemon slices, which she swirled around against the rim to wet the edges, then she poured the glass upside down on a dish of fine white salt and covered it with a circle of snowflake lace.
The juices of agave, cointreau and lime are poured into a shaker pot filled with ice cubes, and the mixture is shaken by Belle before being served in a glass with a pale yellow color.
After the whole process, Belle's movements were skillful, without the slightest hesitation, and it looked pleasing to the eye, and finally she put a slice of lemon on the edge of the glass and handed the wine to Du Yueming.
"The taste of wine is often a reflection of Rao's character. Margaret is a wine that carries the connotation of nostalgia for a departed lover, and your eyes tell me that you may have had a similar experience. Belle stared at Du Yueming, as if she wanted to see him through.
Is this a crooked hit?
Du Yueming did have a similar experience, but now, he has already been able to face some things calmly, but the trace of emotion hidden in his eyes is still captured? In fact, he knows the meaning, because Mr. Chicken has been with him before, maybe he ordered this glass of wine not only to force it.
"Yes. Du Yueming, there was no fluctuation in his tone.
After Danny heard this, he seemed to remember something, he gently pushed Du Yueming's arm, and said in a slightly regretful tone: "This matter, in fact, I heard it from Ah Gao later, it's the fox, right?" If Chen Laoduo and I had stayed for a while at that time, maybe this would not have happened. β
Du Yueming's face finally revealed a trace of bitterness, and he said, "No, this has nothing to do with you. It's me, and I don't have the ability to protect Rao. β
Danny stopped talking, but he understood that men didn't need too many words of comfort, so he changed his words and said, "Then let's not mention the unpleasant ones, drink the bar." β
"Uh-huh. "Du Yueming.
Belle withdrew her gaze, she said: "It turns out that you are the brother surnamed Du that the boss talked to me about before, I have also heard about that matter, and I was impulsive just now." A man with a sword would not do such a childish thing, would he? β
"It doesn't matter. Du Yueming took a sip of the slightly sour Margaret.
Belle nodded to Danny, "What do you drink, boss?"
"You don't have to call me boss all the time, Belle. β
"Yes, Master Danny. β
"Just give me a cup of the mist of the Holy Capital. β
"Then you wait a minute, the green fennel is gone, I need to go and get it. β
"Hmm. β
Belle carried the ice bucket to the cellar to get wine, Danny's eyes followed her for a while, and then fell on Du Yueming beside her, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Does the fog of the Holy Capital have any meaning?" Du Yueming used this glass of wine to divert the topic, and he didn't want Danny to be too nervous.
"It doesn't mean anything, maybe it's because I want to get to the Holy Capital. Danny also happened to follow Du Yueming's train of thought.
"Holy Capital?"
"Abbreviation. That is, the capital of the Holy Augustus Empire, the center of the Western Realm, and the city of the Sanctuary. β
"Does that city mean anything special to you?"
"No, in terms of meaning, that city is not as meaningful as Black Iron City. Danny looked at Du Yueming and smiled, "But I just want to go to the Holy City, just like the Monsoon Pine do." β
"You want to be a hero? Ji Yusong completed the idea of going to the war zone alone, and Du Yueming also listened to it later.
"It doesn't matter if I become a character or not, I just want to make a career. What about you? Dugo. β
"I-" Du Yueming thought for a while, and after hesitating for a while, he sighed lightly, "I don't have any grand wishes, in fact, I just want to live well, but there is always an invisible force pushing me forward, and I will always be the one who is being pushed away." β
"In such a world, in fact, the ideal of living well is grand enough, and I am now leading troops to fight, and everyone I am witnessing with my own eyes is that people with such ideals are dying. Danny sighed, "It's good to see you again, Dugo." β
"Well, it's nice to meet again. β
"And what are your plans now?"
"Yes. β
"Ohβwhere are you going?"
"How about defecting to you?" Du Yueming smiled.
"Welcome. Danny smiled too.
By this time, Belle had already returned, and she quickly mixed a cup of the Mist of the Holy Capital and handed it to Reni.
The Mist of the Holy Capital is a kind of wine that is as hazy as a mist, just like the fog of the Holy Capital.
The Holy Capital is a city with a heavily mechanized alchemy, and a perennial steam mist wafts above it.
"Is there my share, Sister Belle?" At this time, a familiar voice interjected, this person was none other than Zhao Huayu.
"Wasn't you kidnapped by Jie Luoluer, how did you run back?" Du Yueming was surprised when he saw Zhao Huayu who suddenly appeared.
"Hey, hey. Can I, Zhao, get mixed up so far, can I still have a little means?" Zhao Huayu looked a little confident for a while, and he greeted Belle with an extremely bright smile, "Sister Belle, where is my wine?"
"You don't have Sakura," Belle said coldly, and then took off her apron, "Don't let me target you, you're not the first time here, you should know that the number of cocktails I've made today has reached the limit, and it's impossible to have one more drink." β
"Not really. Zhao Huayu instantly had a sad face.
"I got off work boss. Belle had skillfully changed into a civilian dress, and she said to Danny.
"Uh-huh, get off early. "Danny.
Soon. Belle's pretty figure crossed the hall where the guests didn't talk much.
She opened the door, and a strange smile suddenly appeared on her originally cold face, but there was no pause, and she still left.
Zhao Huayu looked annoyed, he looked at Danny and then at Du Yueming, and suddenly had an idea: "In my opinion, everyone is a brother, or let's drink it cross-drink, I haven't drunk Sister Belle's wine for a month, I really want to taste it." β
"Get out!" Danny.
"You make me feel sick!" Du Yueming.
When the two of them heard this, they suddenly became hypocritical, and immediately rejected Zhao Huayu's rude request with righteous words.
"Heartless, you guys. "Zhao Huayu.
"Don't do that. I think when you change your ways, clean yourself, and maybe you will be able to drink her wine. Danny took a sip of the mist of the Holy Capital and said.
"Do you think this is possible? This is completely slimmer than the possibility of you overthrowing Sister Belle, right? Danny, you still don't know me?" Zhao Huayu said quietly.
Danny almost spit out when he heard this, and he said, "What the hell are you talking about?"
