Chapter 4: Unemployed Journalists
"Hey......"
In the bar on West Street, a woman with short gray-blue hair drank a cocktail, as if to relieve her sorrow, and let out a soothing sigh. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
This "bold" way of drinking made the man in charge of bartending at the counter frown.
As we all know, a cocktail is a mixed drink, which is characterized not only by the beautiful layering of colors and the aesthetic value, but also because of the subtle harmony of the intertwined and incompatible flavors after the mixture of flavors. It's a taste that you have to take a sip to savor it slowly.
If you just want to get drunk, you can go and buy draft beer, which is not only cheap, but also saves you your own effort.
Now the guest drinks it like a chef making a plate of roast suckling pig, only to eat the apple in the pig's mouth, and then throw the whole pig away......
Although you can use "I'm happy to spend my money" to silence others, as a producer, I still feel uncomfortable to see my carefully prepared delicacy being ruined like this.
But because of the very basic principle of "I spend money, I am happy", the bartender did not say anything in the end, turned all his complaints into a deep sigh, and sincerely hoped that the guest would leave drunk soon.
However, the strange thing is that although this guest drinks boldly, he is not here to buy drunk.
Because the cocktails she ordered were all low-alcohol types, it showed that she didn't want to get drunk.
It's really confusing.
The bartender looked at her beautiful aqua blue eyes, and then at the slightly flushed cheeks, this was a pretty girl. She looks like she's less than 30 years old, and she has the sleek taste of a professional woman all over her body.
It would be nice if I could improve this drinking method.
Maybe it's because of her rude way of drinking, and none of the guests in the bar come to talk.
The bartender calmly ignored the dilemma of only two customers in the restaurant now.
Because he had been experimenting with a new cocktail recipe all night yesterday, he forgot to go back, and just as he was about to close the door and go back to bed, this troublesome guest came.
Is it really okay to soak in the bar early in the morning?
"Hmm, hmm...... The cup is empty again......"
The woman clicked her lips and licked her tongue unsatisfactorily. Seeing her like this, the purple-haired man beside him hurriedly took the opportunity to repeat the words he had said several times again: "Senior Grace, it's almost, let's drink it here...... ...... will cause trouble to the store."
Oh, what a nice guy! Purple-haired little brother!
The bartender was impressed.
"Ahh No! I've said it all, I'm going to indulge! I'm going to get drunk in the bar in broad daylight like a ruined dog! β
"Senior, senior, cheer up!"
"Oh-no! You're trying to persuade me, believe it or not, I'll sing to you! It's like those drunks, babbling and singing a bunch of nonsense! I can really sing! β
Although looking at her dancing makes people feel that she may be drunk, her thinking is quite clear, and the alcohol she orders is low-degree, which makes people wonder if she is crazy with alcohol.
Even an outsider, the bartender, can see that she should have just experienced some kind of life downfall...... It can't be unemployed, right?
"Miss Grace, you've been drinking in broad daylight, but it's really not your style."
Just as Grace was pretending to be drunk, a clear and soft female voice came.
She was wondering if she didn't seem to know the owner of the voice, when she turned around and saw a beautiful woman with long blond hair approaching behind her with a beautiful woman with long black hair.
"Huh? Who are you? β
Faces that I don't recognize.
Although Grace seems to be drunk, the habit of reporters tells her that she can't really get drunk, or she may miss the big news.
ββ¦β¦ Ah, just your admirers. Crossbell Times, we're looking forward to your news every time! β
Should it be said that it is worthy of You Tatsumi? Lying doesn't take any thought at all, and immediately pulls up a reasonable reason.
"Ah, my admirer...... But I've never been in the newspapers, how did you recognize me? β
Although listening to Grace's tone, she seemed to be drunk and unscrupulous to ask, but her eyes flashed with shrewdness, like a sharp sword, if she lied casually, I am afraid that she would see through it all at once.
It's a pity that although You is also reading Time Magazine, it's basically just flipping over, and he doesn't know if Grace appears on the stage.
But...... It's all said.,You Chensi is very good at lying.γ
"Actually, it's another time I've seen you come with someone from the Special Mission Support Section at the Long Lao Hotel! I was in the store at the time! β
You pretended to be an admirer, with his hands folded, looking innocent.
However, this action was learned from Qiya, and it was more of a "childish" feeling than "naΓ―ve".
Grace got goosebumps all over her body and waved her hand to skip the question.
In fact, Grace had appeared in Time magazine, which is why she lied that she "didn't show up". If you are really a fan of yourself, you will definitely say: "No, didn't you publish a photo in the report of issue xx?" "That's the kind of thing you say.
But You did it another way.
Which is more memorable, seeing an idol in a newspaper or actually seeing an idol? The latter is undoubtedly the case.
So You codified the identity of a bystander who happened to be passing by. It was reasonable, and it was impossible for Grace to remember how many people there were in the Longlao Hotel at that time, and whether there was such a person......
In addition, although Grace does not drink a lot of alcohol, she drinks a lot of alcohol after all, and her brain is not very bright.
"So, so what? What are you doing here, to comfort me, the lost dog? β
You was in a daze, she originally hoped to meet with Grace and get some information, but looking at her current appearance, she should have suffered some blow. It seems that we have to start here and untie the knot first.
"How is it possible, Miss Grace will always be the faithful reporter in my heart!"
Wandering with a clear conscience, he said an almighty word.
"Hey, as a result, you were fired by the truth as a reporter who was loyal to the truth! Give me another squid, no, give me another cocktail......"
Start with a new keyword: [fried squid].
Is Miss Grace unemployed?
You smiled wryly and looked at the purple-haired man next to her.
This person is the man who has been called by Grace, similar to the man who follows, and his name seems to be "Reynz", who knows. Anyway, Yu's memory of him is that when he was running in the old town, it seems that he was involved in Grace......
You tried to make a woman's hopeful gaze and looked eagerly at Reynz. Although he himself does not want to admit it, in the occasion of "dialogue", especially the occasion of dialogue with "men", the appearance of women, especially the appearance of beautiful women, is particularly useful.
Sure enough, Reynz's face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "That, it's actually this report......
As he spoke, he took out a copy of Crossbell Time magazine from his bosom, which was new this week. Not surprisingly, it was full of reports about Crossbell's independence.
But............
You read it through, and she broke out in a cold sweat just by looking at the text, no wonder Grace would be fired, even if she was her boss, she would have to be fired......
Let's sum it up.
People either report on foreign perceptions of Crossbell, or on the advantages and disadvantages of Crossbell's own independence......
This is understandable, from multiple aspects and angles.
Only Grace is a wonder.
She wrote an article angrily denouncing the monopoly of power by the Legislature, but when she asked the parliament, she was arbitrary and unscrupulous, flouting the royal law and intending to build a dictatorial society...... At the same time, he used the Speaker of the Parliament as a breakthrough to criticize the fact that the current government system of Crossbell is based on the violent coercion of the Karuman consortium, and everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak......
Well, that's more than wonderful......
You don't even know what to say.
Should I say that she is upright? Or should she say that she doesn't know how to be flexible? Or is it time to say that her brain is short-circuited?
Just as You was wondering how to comfort Grace, suddenly he noticed a detail that made him swallow all the words he wanted to say......
Since the Speaker came to power, all of Crossbell's power has been vested in the Speaker. Of course, this also includes the right to distribute newspapers. This report was reviewed by the Speaker of the Amendment and approved for release......
The Speaker agreed to Grace posting an almost proverbial article denouncing her......
No, this one isn't strange. You know the purpose of repair, to use dictatorial means to sweep away the old mistakes, and then, to bring himself down, so as to establish a new political system. So, this article is not surprising.
To your surprise, this point in time ......
Now that the Erebonia Empire and the Republic of Calvard have just been scared away by the Karumen consortium, and Crossbell has just become independent for less than a week, it is the time when there is the most trouble, why choose to overthrow himself at this time?
The Speaker is not an impatient man, and a child who can endure the inertia of his talents and pretend to be a fool until the end of the events of Joachim will certainly not be stupid at the moment of his brain.
Really......
Is it to break with the Karuman consortium?
But...... The timing is too embarrassing......
What is the Speaker in a hurry?
Could it be ......
Wait, Miss Grace will write this report, which should also mean the Speaker, she is the Speaker's collaborator. Why was she removed from office instead of assisting the Speaker of the Amendment?
According to the Speaker of the Amendment, she should be regarded as a hero.
Really...... The Speaker of the Amendment is now ...... Are you already "out of your own hands"......
I see, then it makes sense. Why did the Support Section go to exterminate the Phantom Beast instead of the Wehrmacht, first, to test everyone's strength, second, to further increase the prestige of the Support Section, and finally, let the Support Section launch an all-out battle to break with the Karumon Consortium......
Although these are only speculations, the probability is quite high.
"Na...... I say...... Little girl, why did you suddenly stop talking? β
Oops!
You are too immersed in your own fantasies to forget about Grace!
At this time, the shrewd female reporter was squinting her eyes and smiling like a fox. (To be continued.) )
