Chapter 124
"The only downside of two people drinking in one cup is that there's no way to toast. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" put the cup on the table, Ge Yiwei poured it again, "In this way, there is obviously no atmosphere." Are you right, boss?"
"Yes, that's right. I can't bump into another person with a wine glass, and I always feel like there's something in my heart that I can't vent. Picking up her glass, Reimu nodded approvingly. Gulping down all the wine in the glass in another sip, she poured the same wine into it and pushed the glass over, "and she would be happy when she shouted 'Cheers'......"
Since half an hour ago, Ge Yiwei and Lingmeng have already begun to "push the cup and change the lamp" in this way. For the first few minutes, neither of them spoke, just quietly taking turns drinking their own wine, as if they were people from two worlds. Then, I can't remember who started it, but they started talking without saying a word.
"It doesn't matter. It's easy if you want to shout, hundreds of years ago, Li Bai's guy couldn't find a drinking friend, so he could only shout 'Cheers' at the moon, how miserable he was. At least now the two of us still have each other to accompany us, right?" said boss," Ge Yiwei picked up his wine glass and raised it in the direction of Reimeng, "Let's two toast!"
With that, he drank the wine as fast as he could, and then filled the cup into Reimu's hand. Nodding, Reimu also raised his glass: "That's right, at least we still have each other with us...... Cheers!"
After drinking the wine and putting the glass on the table, Reimu did not fill it with wine this time, but laughed out loud: "It feels like a child playing at home, and in the end, I still didn't touch the wine glass, it's really childish behavior......"
"Childish, naΓ―ve, naΓ―ve! There is a saying that ignorance is a blessing, do you know, boss? It's rare to be confused, it's rare to be confused!" Not noticing that there was no wine in the cup at all, Ge Yiwei raised his glass high to the moon in the sky, "Cheers to the confusion! Long live the confusion! Long live ignorance! Long live the ignorance! Long live the ignorance!
"Well, don't worry about forgetting once or twice once in a while, right...... It's all about the details!" Reimu shouted loudly as he raised his glass of air to the moon, "Cheers to Kiruno!"
"No, no, no, no! You, if you don't pour wine according to the rules, you should be punished! You must be punished! Not punishing is not in line with common sense, right?"
"Then Xiaowei should be punished as well! What did you just say about being confused, isn't it you who is usually the most serious person?"
"It's really a normal thing! Aren't you drinking now, drinking! So what you say doesn't count! But...... But it doesn't matter!" Pouring the wine, Ge Yiwei handed the cup to Lingmeng, and then picked up the wine jug himself, "Come, let's be punished together!"
"Cheers!"
The small wine glasses made of ceramic and the flask collide with each other, making a crisp sound. After drinking, Ge Yiwei looked at the wine jug in his hand: "Why did you say that I didn't think of this trick a long time ago, so that you can avoid the problem of not having enough wine glasses......
"That's because Xiaowei is a stupid person! Stupid stupid stupid! Hahahaha!"
"Don't call me stupid! You don't have the qualifications!" Looking at the laughing Reimu with an angry expression, Ge Yiwei slammed the wine jug in his hand on the stone table, "Guys who don't even know the concept of derivatives are not qualified to say that! Do you dare to go head-to-head, boss, to compare the accuracy and speed of doing high math problems? We can use the ratio of the correct rate to the time to do the problem as a yardstick......
"Okay, okay, high math? What's that? You go talk to Zi about this kind of thing! Drink and drink! Cheers again!"
"Oh, cheers! Let's all turn into Ibuki Sanka! Don't stop if you don't drink!"
Once again, the glasses and flasks collide. Drinking the liquid, which had become somewhat cold from the cold of winter, Ge Yiwei's movements suddenly stopped, like a statue. Such a sudden performance made Reimu, who had drunk the air again, a little unable to react: "Hey, Xiaowei, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, I can't stand it now......"
ββ¦β¦ It's fine, but I suddenly have a little emotion. Putting the flask on the stone table, Ge Yiwei smiled a little quietly, as if the previous yelling had never happened, "This really doesn't look like the two of us usually, boss." β
ββ¦β¦ yes, it's really not like you and me are usual. Still holding the empty wine glass in her hand, Reimu looked at the shiny pistol next to the flask, "You got a new one?" β
"New pistol? No, this is the one Sanae got from my brother...... I guess it's the one I gave you earlier, right? There's my ghost drawing engraved on it. Picking up the pistol from the table, Ge Yiwei turned on its flashlight, and a bright light hit the ground, "Add a flashlight." To be honest, most of my outfit was ripped from dead people, and it took a lot of effort to get it together. I don't believe you, but there is still a smell of blood on my clothes. β
"I don't want to. There's no way to get used to that smell no matter what. With a disgusted expression on her face, Reimu moved her body away from Ge Yiwei a little, "But in this way, you really look like you are when we first met." β
"Now?ah, that's right. I shouldn't have changed much except that my face was swollen and the corners of my mouth were bruised. It's you, boss, you've changed a lot now. Looking Reimu up and down, Ge Yiwei smiled and said, "What were you wearing when we first met?" Oh yes, you seemed to have only one set of clothes at that time, right, that set of armpit witch costumes......
"How can there be only one set of clothes. I'm also a shrine maiden at Hakurei Shrine.,There's also a regular shrine maiden costume.γ Sighing weakly, Reimu cupped her forehead, "Also, it's too poor to have only one set of clothes, isn't it? At least there should be a change of clothes, right? And the girls should have a little more clothes......"
"Miss Dongfenggu taught you right? I used to run into the world every day, and I basically never saw anyone on the road changing clothes. Seeing the other party put the wine glass on the table, Ge Yiwei filled it with wine, "This is obviously a concept that only exists in the present world......
"And also, when we first met, I didn't wear that suit, it should be ......" Maybe it's because of the effect of wine, Ge Yiwei found that Reimeng's face was slightly red, "It should be ......"
Digging hard into his memories, Ge Yiwei immediately put on an expression of sudden realization: "Oh, that's right. You and I must have been asleep when we first met, right?, boss, you reacted so quickly that I passed out without seeing anything...... Hehe, at that time I suspected that you were a Japanese soldier and wanted to kill you......"
"Ahhh......h By the way, this should also be counted as part of the medical expenses, right?" Reimu nodded as she spoke, "Well, that's right, Xiaowei, your debt has increased again. β
ββ¦β¦ Boss, you really don't do it, right? It's still that question, are you too obsessed with money or do you look at me unpleasantly? Can you be honest and answer me honestly?" gave the other party a roll of the eyes, Ge Yiwei's tone was dissatisfied, "What kind of childhood will bring a character like yours, your strange index is the same as that of my brother......"
"Your brother...... Is that the impostor? No wonder it looks so similar. Playing with the wine glass in her hand, Reimu said, "Although I've only been with him for a few days...... But his personality is much gentler than yours, do you know?"
"He is not called gentle, but flattery. He is the same for all women...... Alas, a male feminist. β
"Hey, people are already dead, and it's not good to talk bad about him behind his back, don't you shoot him in the middle of the night and he comes to you?"
"Come to me? That's right, I can also talk to him about tomorrow's mission plan. As an agent, he should be a lot more experienced with this kind of thing than I am. Although there was still no way to hide the loneliness on his face, Ge Yiwei still turned off the bright flashlight and said in a half-joking tone, "Don't dare to say anything else, now my experience is much greater than most people in this world." I've fought alongside people who can use magic, and I've seen real ghosts...... At this time, even if you say 'I have no regrets in this life', it doesn't count, right?"
"'I have no regrets in this life'...... It sounds like you're going to die soon, which is unlucky. β
"This is a fact, tomorrow's task will definitely not be completed if I don't work hard, and I am now holding the consciousness of losing my life. Sticking the gun back into his waist, Ge Yiwei stretched, "It doesn't matter if it's mine or someone else's." β
"What about tomorrow's mission......" poured himself wine, but Reimu didn't drink it. Looking at the moon reflected in the wine glass, she exhaled softly, and the small droplets of liquefied water formed a white mist in the air, "It always feels like our actions are very meaningless, and in the end it is just a big circle." In the beginning, didn't you also go to Youkai Mountain to fight monsters?"
"The meaning is unknown. Can the enemy be compared to that time? Although the mutants evolve quickly, their weaknesses are also quite obvious, and they are completely moving targets when fighting armored forces. And now, we are facing a large number of bugs...... However, it is said that this kind of life form should be the enemy that human beings encountered only when they entered the space age, so why did it appear at such a time...... The Nazis must have found the hack somewhere. β
"I'm talking to myself again, saying things that no one else understands. You really like science so much?"
"Ah, yes, I really like it. Like physics, to be exact. Ge Yiwei nodded briskly, "I like it so much that I can't like it anymore." Although uncertainty has made it no longer as dominant as it was in the classical physical era, it can greatly satisfy my curiosity as a piece of knowledge that can explain the phenomena that occur on a daily basis...... People are always a little curious, aren't they? Boss, haven't you ever thought to figure out what the world around you is like?"
"Of course I thought about it, but why do you have to use something that makes people look dizzy. What I see, hear, feel, this is my world. That's it. Reimu yawned slightly, "Besides, human power is limited, and there will always be things we can't figure out, right?" but it always feels like my concept has changed after meeting you......
"People are always influencing each other. Not to mention the youth ...... Boss, how old are you? I've never heard of it. β
"How old? I can't remember ......."
"Oh my God!" almost fell out of his seat, Ge Yiwei had a frightened expression on his face, "It turns out that boss, are you so old that the person concerned can't remember clearly?"
"What the hell! I'm not purple! Of course I'm a girl!A real human girl!" took out the imperial coin that he didn't know where to take out and knocked Ge Yiwei's head hard, and Reimu drank the glass of wine in his hand angrily, "It's just that Gensokyo's life hasn't been too turbulent most of the time, so I don't have a real sense of the concept of time!Do you think I used to live every day like the last two months, busy all day...... After all, it's all your fault!"
"Why did it hit me again...... If I had just entered Gensokyo, I would have been shot in the temple and nothing would have happened, right? In other words, you just want me to die?"
"How can you die! Your debts haven't been paid off, and you can't die before that, don't you hear it!"
"Okay, okay, I won't die! I'll try not to die, won't I do it for your little money......" Filling the cup handed over by the other party with wine, Ge Yiwei closed his eyes and began to nod, "Then let's have another drink?"
"Okay, another drink...... Cheers!"
"Alas, it's really not easy to get to this point......" Putting down the flask again, Ge Yiwei sighed, "Think about how much has happened recently...... When it's all over, I can go straight to writing a memoir, and it will definitely sell for a lot of money. In the second half of my life, this can be regarded as a fall...... But maybe it's better to be a translator with the help of the translation function of the Great Enchantment......"
"Don't try to compete with me for a job. Did I know that I came up with this first? Instant translation can make a lot of money......, right?"
"Of course. I think that the teachers in our school were employees of an instant translation company, providing human instant translation work for a software. The monthly salary is quite high......"
"Well, then why did he want to be a teacher? Isn't that a good job?"
"Nonsense, instant translation, instant translation, if there is no black technology such as the Great Enchantment, this work can tire you to death! When he goes to work, he works two hours a day, and it is said that according to the survey, if the working hours of this work exceed two hours a day, the life expectancy of the human body will be greatly reduced...... That's actually no different from being a soldier, every day is to take your life in Bo. Smacking his lips, Ge Yiwei looked at the moon again, "The outside world is indeed convenient for everything, but it is really much more tiring than Gensokyo...... Really, it's nice to be in front of a desk every day quietly doing research and doing nothing else......"
"Long live understanding, long live understanding, drink tea quietly at the shrine every day, and do nothing else! Cheers!"
"Cheers. Let's rest, boss, I also said before, I have to go on a mission tomorrow, and I still have an injury in my abdomen, I may not be able to withstand such a toss......" Glancing at the other party, Ge Yiwei held the wine jug in his arms to prevent Lingmeng from grabbing it, "Boss, didn't you also have an injury to your abdomen? And it seems to be much more serious than mine, there is a problem with one of the arteries......"
"Ah, it feels like a long time ago...... But it seems like it's only been about half a month, isn't it?" Seeing that he couldn't grab the flask, Reimu retracted his leaning body and subconsciously put his right hand in the position of the original wound, "I heard Marisa say that my injury at that time seemed to be very serious...... As a result, there is not even a single wound left. β
"Isn't that a good thing that there are no wounds? Especially for a girl like you. You still seem to be a little dissatisfied with the tone?"
"Dissatisfied...... I'm also a little unclear. Maybe there really is. Answering ambiguously, Reimu turned her face away, "But, how are your wounds now?"
"Ask Reisen to go for this kind of thing. When it comes to your own body, doctors know better than you do. Ge Yiwei waved his hand and suddenly stood up, "Oh, by the way, boss, I forgot one thing......
As he spoke, he bent down deeply: "I'm sorry boss! I'm really sorry to throw you in Mongolia!"
"That's it...... That's right, you really should apologize to me. Do you know how hard it was for me to keep acting along the way. With a wry smile, Reimu stretched out her hand, "Give me the wine and I'll forgive you." β
ββ¦β¦ Why are you all like this, I finally mustered up the courage to apologize......"
"Okay, okay, let's stop talking about it!" Reimu raised his glass as he put the flask back into the other's hand, "Keep drinking!"
