"So that's ......" After listening to my explanation, Balkuv nodded a little sadly, "So now Asa will play Little Lacey?" ”

"Yes. Pen % Fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info (Pingnan)"

"Hmph, that's a bad idea that only that bastard of Hieroni can come up with! I said, "I've never heard of it—I'm still there happy that he's become a hero!" Balkuv picked up the bottle from the table and poured out as if to vent.

"That Thresten's corpse is in that demon half-blood? The half-breed is called ...... Ruthya? Where is she now? Nabal asked me with a frown, still with the same grim face.

“？！” I was stunned, wondering why Nabal was so interested in Lacey's corpse, so I looked at him suspiciously.

"Don't say it?" Nabal's tone began to turn cold again, but then his expression relaxed again, "Sakura, what are you nervous about?!" Am I that scary? ”

“…… What do you think of the Grim Reaper? Asa on the side couldn't help but say.

"Humph!" Nabal snorted, ignoring Asa's chatter, "I'm used to it. Sakura, I don't have any ill will. It's not like you don't know that I like that kid of Thresteen very much, and ......" Nabal hesitated, and suddenly gritted his teeth and hated, "And he's my sister's 'young master'!" ”

"......" I shrank in fear again - seeing that Nabal hated Lacey so much, did I dare to tell him about the forest where Lacey and Rusya were hiding? But-

"Mr. Nabar," I plucked up the courage to ask, "can I ...... Can you tell me where Ogi is? ”

"Huh?!"

"Lacey has been looking for Xiao Di, and now he is gone...... Even if Xiao Di goes to see Reis......"

"Do you want my sister to cry with you too?!" Nabal raised his tone dissatisfiedly, "Don't think! Anyway, Thresteen is dead, what do you want my sister to do to see the dead?! ”

"Death, why are you ......," Balkuv interjected, "so unkind?!" I thought you were a jerk in the first place, and today you are even more of a jerk! ”

"Get out!" Nabal ignored Barkuff and muttered alone for a moment, "But-Sakura, how about a deal?" ”

"Deal?"

"You tell me where Threstin's ice coffin is, and I'll tell Ogi - it's up to Ogi to decide whether to go and see it or not!"

"Wow! Death, you're so deceitful! Asa screamed, "So even if we tell you where the red eyes are, and Ogi doesn't come or you don't tell Ogi at all, then Sakura-sama won't know!" - Why are you so interested in red-eyed corpses?! ”

"Interest? Nonsense! Nabal glared at Asa dissatisfied, "The corpse can tell me more than you!" ――I heard Sakura say that he was killed by several masked people, how was the wound? Pierced from where? What kind of sword did the other party use? Although Thresteen suspects that those masked men are using oriental swordsmanship, but what if not? How many swordsmanship has that kid seen?! ――I haven't figured anything out, don't you want to avenge him?! ”

"Well—" Asa suddenly realized, "Death, give up!" ”

"Huh?"

"Hieroni, Tina, and that magic swordsman Esther have all double-checked them - they are not as good as you combined? There is no clue at all, the group of masked men who assassinated the red eye have not appeared again, more than a year, and there is no clue! - My brother used the Holy Wind to look for it, and Sakura also asked the Bai family to use Taoism to find it, but to no avail. ”

"What do you say over there? Didn't the demons fight the masked people? ”

"Huh? You say Ashetaro? His reply was, 'I had never seen swordsmanship before, and the three I killed immediately burned myself, and there was nothing left.' ’”

"So—" Nabal pondered for a moment, "or do you want to see for yourself—are you sure it's Thresteen's body?" ”

"Impossible!" Asa waved his hand and said proudly, "I made the red-eyed ice coffin!" Now the red-eyed and the ice coffin are already one, and they can't be destroyed at all! Unless it's broken - but then the red-eyed ones will be crushed into a pile of meat! And," Asa said, glancing at me again, and seeing that I hadn't stopped him, continued, "a lot of people wonder if it's red-eyed!" Sakura, little Luca, and Hironi were the most suspicious - too, just seeing him approach, waving his hand and dying, without even saying a word, let alone them, I was a little suspicious. ”

"How did you check it?!"

"Not only does it look the same, but the scars on my body are the same, and my brother and I have both tested them with magic! Even if you doubt my water magic, you should at least have heard of the abilities of the Holy Wind Hulibel, right? ”

"Although little Luca said that her holy spear Elise reacted a little strangely, she finally agreed," I said silently, "and Rusya finally confirmed that it was indeed Lacey, and that the blood smelled exactly the same as Lacey's. ”

"That demon half-breed said the same thing? ――Is it true? Damn it! Nabal sighed a little annoyed, and picked up the bottle beside him—

"Hey! Don't drink that! Barkuff, who was drinking sullenly on the side, suddenly stopped him.

"Huh?"

"Wait!" After saying that, Barkuv hurriedly left the restaurant, and soon walked in with a large wooden box.

"It's—" Nabal sniffed in surprise, "it smells good!" You idiot still hides such a good wine?! ”

"A nose is smarter than a dog?! Can you smell it without opening it?! Barkuv cursed back, and then opened the wooden box in front of us—

Twelve porcelain vases were neatly arranged inside - the bottle looked strange, although it was a standard oriental porcelain with blue patterns on a white background, but unlike the common cylindrical shape, it was composed of two large balls, small at the top and large at the bottom, and the mouth of the bottle was very thin, and it was clogged by a wooden block wrapped in red cloth.

"Oriental wine?" Asa leaned over curiously, "What's the way it is!" ”

"Hah! Haven't seen it, have you? This is the best from the East~" Balkuv uncorked one of the bottles, and the rich aroma of wine immediately filled the entire restaurant, "This bottle is made by the Orientals in imitation of their plants there, called--What is it about?" Forgot. ”

"Hulu! You idiot! Nabal unceremoniously stepped forward and snatched a bottle, "This bottle is mine!" ”

"You're welcome! Come, Sakura, Asa, come and taste! ”

With that, Barkuv poured the amber wine into the cups of me and Asa.

"Huh? I ......" I wanted to refuse, but seeing Balkuf's solemn expectant expression, I had to take a sip of the cup, and a spicy taste rushed straight to my forehead, cough! Choking!

"Wow! Cough! Cough! The Asa monster, who had just taken a sip, exclaimed, "It's so spicy! Uncle, is this really wine? So spicy?! ”

"This is a refined sake! Idiot! Nabal, on the side, slowly drank the wine from the glass alone, and then squinted his eyes in satisfaction, as if he was enjoying it.

"It's like this for the first time!" Barkuv smiled and showed off, "You're cheap—there's only this one box on the continent!" This refined wine is only made by the Orientals - it is said that it takes four barrels of ordinary wine to make this bottle! ”

"Wow! Four barrels?! Asa's eyes widened in surprise, "Am you mistaken?" Four barrels of wine to make this thing? What a waste! ”

Yes, it's a waste. I remember that Sister Jia Na, who was on Bai Suiyun's boat that day, said that a bottle of Oriental wine was worth at least two gold coins, and the bottle in front of me was actually made of four barrels of wine-uh...... How much is that sip I just drank worth?!

Thinking of this, I put down my wine glass in a panic and looked at the crystal clear liquid in disbelief: "Mr. Balkuff, this wine-"

"Huh? Can't afford to drink? Balkuv gave me a look.

I nodded, "It's so expensive—"

"Afraid of what?" Asa didn't mind, raised his hand and drank the wine in the cup, "Uncle is treated, don't drink such expensive wine in vain...... Cough! Cough! Cough! It's spicy! Stand! Cough! Cough! Burned! He kept tearing at his throat and screaming.

"Haha! Have fun?! Barkuv burst out laughing.

"What's the pleasure?" Asa groaned hoarsely, "I'm going to die! I'm going to die! Die...... Well? ”

"Looks like the idiot sensed it." Nabal chuckled.

"Hmm......" Asa stopped and looked ahead with a somewhat blank expression, "the whole body is hot, and it tastes so good!" Not bad! - Uncle, have another drink! ”

"Haha! Delicious, right? Balkuv was extremely proud, "Go get it yourself!" Sakura, you drink too! This bottle is yours. ”

"Ahh Mr. Balkuff, you still don't need it, do you? I hurriedly waved my hand, "It's too precious to say—"

"It's okay," his tone suddenly became a little lonely, "these drinks were originally intended for Little Lacey. ”

"Lacey?"

"Well," Balkuv bowed his head and took a drink of his own, "I was going to use this to lure him in—alas, he couldn't." ”

"Ah......h

yes, it turns out that this wine was reserved for Lacey.

No wonder he took it to me so solemnly.

Silently raised his glass—

It's so spicy, it's so hard, but behind the spicy, there is an evocative sweet aroma.

The taste of memory, the fragrance of memory.

In the second cup, the spicy taste is light, mellow, and the thick amber liquid slowly flows through the tip of the tongue, seemingly, there is a hint of sweetness. With a slight heat all over the body, it is so comfortable.

Asa was chatting with Barkuf.

"Hey, uncle, you lure him with such expensive wine? Is red-eye worth the price? ”

"Why isn't it worth it?" Balkuv returned to his place, picked up another bottle of wine, and drank it straight from the bottle.

"Is the red-eyed really that good?" Asa muttered dissatisfiedly, "I don't think that guy is any different from me?" ”

"You?" Balkuv squinted at him, shook his head, and said, "You're just a bastard. ”

"Isn't he, too?"

"It's different, he's a big bastard!"

"......" I frowned, I wanted to argue for Lacey, but I didn't quite understand what Balkuv meant, so I had to continue listening.

"I don't understand ......"

"I don't understand," Nabal interjected suddenly, "you mean—Thresteen is a bastard on the same level as you idiot?" ”

(Well said!) ）
