090 Red Beard

Chapter 90: Redbeard

Old Man Qiu babbled a lot about her parents' past, and Qiu Ci just listened silently, his fingers moving along the edge of the teacup, and occasionally responded.

By the time she quit the virtual community, it was already midnight, the temperature in the room was suitable, and it was dark outside the window. Pulling open the thick floor-to-ceiling curtains, Qiu Zi looked at the ground thousands of kilometers away through the floor-to-ceiling windows of special materials.

Phoenix is lit up with neon lights, the hovering lane is filled with a steady stream of hovercars, and the sky higher is occupied by all kinds of flying machines. Outside the city, a faint purple shone everywhere, which was the purple moon ore fragment contained in the surface soil layer that was glowing.

I heard that many years ago, when the Purple Moon ore was not mined in large quantities, every night, the entire planet would be covered with a mysterious and dreamy rich purple. At that time, the Purple Moon Star relied on a thriving tourism industry and quickly jumped from a tripolar planet to one of the few second-level planets.

Akiji's gaze fell on the alley opposite the Goddess's Heart, and she remembered that there was a bar called "Displaced" at the end of the alley, which was the most frequented place by pirates. She used to frequented the bar with Redbeard, who introduced her to a clientele of pirates, leaders of the underground, smugglers, and the head of the Union branch of the Union Bank of Utopia.

After she took over the entire Scarlet Spider pirate fleet, she was left to deal with these people, negotiate business, do business, and find cooperation to take on tasks......

"Daddy isn't in there?" Qiu Ci thought, I haven't seen you for a long time, what does my father look like now? In his memory, when he was a child, he always liked to brush the crimson beard on his face, and then he pulled it with his hands, and the red beard screamed in pain. Uncle Locke, who had a goatee, laughed and was kicked to the ground by Redbeard.

Thinking about it, she unconsciously put a gentle smile on her face, took off her coat from the hanger, and prepared to go out to the displaced bar to sit down.

Enter the elevator, press the button on the ground floor, the elevator door slowly closes, and when it closes a little, it slowly opens again. Qiu Ci looked up, and there was a young man in a gray windbreaker standing outside the door, Shi Shiran entered the elevator, pressed the close button, and the elevator carried the two people down.

Qiu Ci turned his head to look at him suspiciously, there was a bit of familiarity between this person's eyebrows, especially the indifference in his eyes, and he didn't seem to care about anything. She was sure she had never seen this person before, and she didn't understand where the familiarity came from.

The young man's face was well-defined, with a thin lip under a straight nose and a faint blue color on his cheeks and chin. Xinchang's body snuggled in the elevator casually, and he didn't look at Qiu Ci.

"Instructor Xie Kaiyan?" Qiu Ci hesitantly tried to call, and she finally thought of Xie Kaiyan from between this person's familiar eyebrows, but she couldn't be sure.

The man's rambling gaze turned to her, bowing slightly.

Qiu Ci's eyes widened instantly, and he looked at the clean, refreshing and personable man in front of him in disbelief. The same person, the same reclining action, Xie Kaiyan in the past only made people feel that this was a lump of mud, but Xie Kaiyan at this moment looks extraordinary......

People rely on clothing, Buddha relies on gold, is this a typical example?

Qiu Ci raised his hand and pointed at his face, suspicious: "You are lying to me, the beard on Instructor Xie Kaiyan's face is comparable to the thick hair on the fleshy female boar, and you obviously have no hair on your face." He nodded affirmatively: "Not even half of it." ”

The pale cyan marks on Xie Kaiyan's fair face were a little heavier, and it seemed to be a little greener, and he glanced at her carelessly: "I shaved, is it okay?" ”

As soon as Qiu Ci heard his voice, he was completely sure that this thing was really like mud Xie Kaiyan, coughed and continued to ask, "Is it cold?" ”

Xie Kaiyan looked at her puzzled.

Qiu Zhi pointed to his face again and prompted, "Is it cold when you shave your beard?" I always thought you were afraid of the cold, so I kept a beard to keep warm. ”

"......" Xie Kaiyan turned his head and ignored her.

When the elevator arrived at the parking lot on the ground floor, Xie Kaiyan couldn't wait to get out of the elevator, he really couldn't stand Qiu Ci's dark eyes that always showed a smile but not a smile, and his gaze kept falling on his face unabashedly. Qiu Ci followed him slowly and sat with him in a hovercar.

"Where to go?" Xie Kaiyan started the hovercar and asked.

Qiu Ci sat beside him, still staring at him intently, as if he had found something interesting: "The bar in the alley in front." ”

The hovering car started, and after a while, Xie Kaiyan said helplessly: "Enough, there is no bloom on my face." ”

"Your parents gave you a name that is really apt, Xie Kaiyan, as soon as you shave your beard, you will open your face. Well, really prescient. "Autumn word review.

Xie Kaiyan glanced at her and asked, "What are you doing at the bar so late?" It's a mess inside, don't run around if it's okay. ”

"Want a glass of wine, do you want to drink it? I invite you. ”

Xie Kaiyan was silent for a moment and said, "Drink." ”

The hovercar stopped outside the displaced door, and the welcoming boy standing at the gate trotted two steps to open the door for Qiu Ci, nodding and greeting warmly. Qiu Ci stared at the little boy for a while, then suddenly smiled, generously gave him a lot of tips, and said, "Steve, lead the way." ”

Steve obediently took the coat from her hand and replied, "Okay, Miss, please come with me." It wasn't until Qiu Ci and Xie Kaiyan were brought close to the bar that he thought in hindsight: How did she know that my name was Steve?

Steve's eyes were puzzled, everyone who knew him called him a little ghost, and only his ** mother would call him by his name. Qiu Ci suddenly called out his name, which had to make him a little surprised, and Qiu Ci was very unfamiliar in his eyes, and he had never seen it, which made him even more puzzled.

"Little ghost, hurry up and go out to greet the guests, do you want to be beaten?" The security guard at the door shouted.

"It's coming, it's coming." Steve quickly agreed, shook his head and ran out to continue to open the door for the guests at the door.

Qiu Ci lit a glass of Freedom Fire, a cocktail that is hot in the mouth and has a long aftertaste. At the beginning of the mouth, it is like a line of fire down the throat, quickly swimming in the body, and every pore of the hot limbs is extremely comfortable, and it can drive away the cold and fatigue in the body in a few seconds, which is a favorite cocktail of pirates.

Xie Kaiyan didn't care to light a glass of free fire, listened to the intense music in the bar, raised his voice and said, "Do you know that little ghost just now?" ”

Qiu Ci picked up the free fire sent by the waiter, took a sip of the blue and red ****, felt the fire line quickly swimming in the body, and sighed comfortably after a while: "It's a little ghost now, and it may be a big ghost in the future." ”

"Oh, how big?" Xie Kaiyan's slender fingers picked up the wine glass and sent it to his mouth heroically. Qiu Ci didn't have time to stop it, he had already drunk it all.

"How does it feel? Cool? Qiu Ci waited for a few seconds, looked at him sympathetically, and his eyes were a little eager to try.

Xie Kaiyan's face suddenly turned red, a layer of fine sweat oozed from his forehead, and he clenched his fingers for a while before gritting his teeth and saying, "You can, try it yourself." ”

Qiu Ci hurriedly shook her head, although she also wanted to try what it was like to kill the fire of freedom, but just thinking about it, she was not crazy to this point. Pour the whole cup of free fire down, that taste...... Ahem, I'm afraid the internal organs are burning.

The waiter was very discerning, and when he saw that Xie Kaiyan's cup was empty, he immediately sent another cup in front of him, and did not forget to praise: "Sir, you are really courageous, it is the first time I have seen someone dare to drink the fire of freedom so boldly." ”

Xie Kaiyan raised his wine glass and looked at the red and blue **** inside, shuddered, and said with a reluctant smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

Qiu Ci looked at him blankly, Xie Kaiyan learned a lesson, just took a sip and put down the cup in her disappointed eyes, raised his eyebrows and said, "You haven't said how great that little ghost will be in the future." ”

Sighing regretfully, Qiu Ci asked unrelentingly: "Do you have any discomfort in your stomach, do you feel that the whole person is burning?" Feeling like it's about to explode or ripe? ”

"Just a cocktail, you want to put me down?" Xie Kaiyan's expression was pale on the surface, but in fact, his internal organs seemed to have been fried in an oil pot, and the bite he took just now added fuel to the fire, crispy and crispy as if there was a smell of meat. But he still held on with an indifferent expression, not showing a trace in front of the gloating autumn words.

Qiu Ci took a sip of the wine in the glass, changed the topic and said mysteriously: "I am very optimistic about that little ghost, maybe in a few decades, he will become the most powerful underground king on the Purple Moon Star." ”

Xie Kaiyan was noncommittal, turned his head to look at the bar hall, and on the marble platform in the middle of the hall, a down-and-out female singer was singing a sad cappella with a hoarse voice. Xie Kaiyan knew that this song "You and My Country" used to be sung by a woman in his ear so eloquently.

It seemed that he just turned around, and could no longer find the figure of the woman, as the lyrics sang: I was in the same place, stupidly waiting; You are far away, and your kingdom belongs to you......

Qiu Ci's gaze slowly swept through the hall, suddenly froze, her eyes lit up, and she saw a familiar person, a skinny middle-aged man with a goatee.

Locke, and Redbeard have always been inseparable, and someone once used an idiom to describe the relationship between the two: fox fake tiger. Redbeard is a tiger, Locke is a fox, and the fox is in the bar, so it means that the tiger is here.

Qiu Ci searched around him, but he didn't see the crimson bearded man, so he couldn't help but be a little disappointed and a little curious, where did Daddy go?

A rough voice muttered in her ear: "He's **, do you think Lao Tzu is asking for food?" With such a little money, I want Lao Tzu to work against the alliance government, and Lao Tzu is not stupid enough to do this? ”

Qiu Ci was stunned, slowly turned her head to the side, the hand holding the wine glass shook slightly, and the blue-red **** splashed on her slender fingers.
