Chapter 780: Shine on the face

In the bar, customers come and go, and most customers don't stay for more than an hour.

After all, it's just an ordinary bar, not any other entertainment venue. For those who work, the bar is just to relax and relieve the fatigue of the day, and some are just to have a drink. Of course, most workers have families and there is no reason to spend the night outside. For those civilians, because of their limited spending power, not only are the drinks ordered cheap, but they also don't spend too much time here. If you need other services, such as addressing your physiological needs, you can go somewhere else, and there's no need to waste time here. Even with the occasional exception, a few customers spend hours here, mostly drinking, not looking around.

Obviously, the situation today is not quite the same.

It was three o'clock in the morning, and the closing time was still an hour away, and the three customers arrived at eight o'clock and were still sitting there.

Although they didn't look around, they didn't drink too much either, as if they weren't here to drink.

What else can you do when you come to a bar and don't drink?

Of course, this is not surprising, it is true that there are some customers who do not come to the bar to drink, especially some single laborers, or some young civilians. These people, in order to save some money, can spend an evening in a bar and wait for some opposite sex to arrive.

The problem is, they are one man and two women.

Kyle was strange because he couldn't see the minds of the three men.

In a sense, Kyle's ability to have the job he is doing is directly related to his special ability to read other people's minds at a glance. If a customer has a special need that meets the organization's requirements, Kyle will reach out to them in the name of providing a service and then give a hint. Most of the time, such a target will understand what Kyle means.

It's a pity that Kyle can't see through those three people, as if they are not human at all.

Imperial personnel?

Kyle is a little worried, but thinks it's very unlikely.

In the Aerial World, the personnel of the Empire have a transcendent social status, and they all have powerful superpowers, and they do not take civilians seriously at all. If it's a law enforcement officer, he also has superpowers similar to Kyle's, and can see what civilians are thinking at a glance, and he doesn't need to spend hours observing the situation at all. Besides, the personnel of the empire care about their identities very much, and they will directly identify themselves wherever they go, for fear that others will not know the truth, and they will not be like ordinary people, let alone deliberately conceal their identities.

Of course, Kyle still had an extra mind and didn't use his special ability to sense their mental activity.

If he encounters just ordinary people, Kyle doesn't need to concentrate on sensing at all, as long as he is close enough, he can read through other people's minds. It is only when he encounters someone more special that Kyle needs to concentrate and perceive the other person's mental activity. Of course, if the other party was an Imperial person, Kyle wouldn't do that, as it would only make him reveal his true identity.

They weren't Empire people, but who were they, and why were they here?

Kyle hesitated a little, wondering if he wanted to go up and say hello.

In the end, Kyle controlled himself and didn't do anything stupid.

No matter who they are, they must have special abilities, and such people may not need the help of the organization, and therefore do not meet the requirements of the organization.

By the time it was almost four o'clock in the morning, the customers in the bar had almost all left.

The three were still there, and they had no intention of leaving.

Kyle was a little nervous because under normal circumstances, he should have asked them to leave, which was the manager's job, but then he would have had direct contact with them.

Just as Kyle hesitated, the man got up first, and then left the bar with the two women.

Kyle breathed a sigh of relief, at least not to risk it.

Although as a member of the "Dark Dawn", Kyle has a high awareness of death, and does not expect to be able to have eternal life after becoming a citizen of the Empire by serving the Empire like ordinary people, and he feels that obtaining eternal life is not necessarily a good thing, but Kyle is only thirty-four years old, and for the natural lifespan of one hundred and twenty, he has not lived enough, and it is not like dying too early.

Kyle doesn't want to take risks, and he doesn't want to give his life for something worthless.

As the three men left, the bar fell completely silent.

As usual, Kyle first went to hang up a "Closed for Business" sign, then notified the back-office management and initiated the closure process. For the next six hours, the robot automatically clears the entire bar, rearranges tables and chairs, and then reopens after 10 a.m. Of course, another manager is responsible for the day's work, and Kyle only needs to come in at 8 p.m. to take over.

Because it's not an inventory day, there's no extra work to do.

Going to change into civilian clothes, Kyle leaves the bar.

There are not many residents in the commercial area here.

If he wants, Kyle can use the identity given to him by Black Dawn to apply for a luxury apartment. He is a laborer and has the right to apply for more living space. Even if he is single, he can get a luxurious apartment with two living rooms, four bedrooms, three function rooms and a sky garden. If you are willing to come up with some labor points, you can even have a private swimming pool with an area of more than 100 square meters.

In fact, for Kyle, labor points don't matter at all.

His identity is destined to be unable to exchange labor points for citizenship. Not to mention 50 years, even if he has worked for 500 years, he is just a civilian.

Kyle felt that if he were someone else, he would definitely enjoy life to the fullest.

It's just that Kyle doesn't have such a desire.

It's not that he doesn't want to get better living conditions, but he doesn't want to take risks, and his life is monotonous, and after eight hours of work, he needs enough time to rest in order to recuperate and cope with the next day's work, and he has little time to enjoy.

Of course, there are exceptions on the days of official holidays every year.

For this reason, Kyle did not apply for a luxury apartment from the Imperial authorities, but rented a room near his place of work, with only a living room and a bedroom, and only a few pots of flowers and plants on the small balcony, and Kyle's entertainment was to watch a few old-fashioned movies when he returned home.

Actually, Kyle doesn't need any other entertainment.

His special ability allows him to obtain more information than anyone else, allowing him to understand the inner world of everyone around him, or everyone in his vicinity.

In his opinion, any person's experience is a complete movie.

Of course, his special status also makes Kyle have to be cautious everywhere and must not be negligent at all, so he prefers to stay in his own home rather than go out for fun.

The place to stay is not too far from the bar, only about 10 minutes walk away.

The security in the city is very good, and even if you go out alone at four o'clock in the morning, you won't be in danger, at least Kyle hasn't heard of any vicious policing incidents in the neighborhood.

In any case, the vast majority of civilians are already satisfied with the life they have.

Aside from the first four years, Kyle never had to worry about safety for the next ten years, at least not about the threat from civilians.

To put it bluntly, if someone tries to sneak up on him, he will be aware of it before they get close.

Kyle has never had anything like this in the past fourteen years.

Only, today is an exception.

As he approached the apartment, Kyle slowed down as there was a man standing at the intersection ahead. Hidden in the shadows in the corner, I can't see my face clearly. It's just that at this time, the person who appeared in this kind of place was obviously very unusual, and Kyle didn't know what the person was thinking.

Kyle was a little nervous, he wanted to stop, he just felt it was a bit too much.

Perhaps, just a drunk, or a stranger from out of town.

Kyle knew that the city he lived in was not the only city in this world, but that there were other cities. Although the residents of each city rarely travel to other cities and rarely interact with each other, there are always some people who need to go to other cities to run errands, and these people often go to some entertainment venues in their spare time, including the bar where Kyle works, so Kyle has met many civilians from other cities.

Of course, these people tend to stay right in hotels in business districts and often get lost after getting drunk.

Kyle walked towards the intersection, only to stop quickly.

Not one person, except for the one standing at the intersection, there were two people behind him, and two women. Kyle didn't sense their thoughts, just stopped at the sound they were making as they walked, and knew that they were right behind him, walking towards him.

It was at this moment that the man at the intersection stepped out of the shadows in the corner.

It's a man, the man who started to leave after the last in the bar.

Kyle was nervous, but didn't scream.

Obviously, this is not a coincidence, definitely not a coincidence. If Kyle were a normal person, he would have shouted immediately, and perhaps residents living nearby would have contacted law enforcement officials after hearing his shouting. But Kyle is no ordinary person, and it's not a good thing to get law enforcement officials involved.

However, Kyle immediately calmed down.

Although these three people came to target him, they definitely didn't want to kill him, otherwise they wouldn't have waited until now, and they would have been attacked elsewhere a long time ago.

Also, they are certainly not Imperial personnel, because Imperial personnel are not so mysterious.

Perhaps, they are civilians with special abilities, and they just want to contact the "Black Dawn" organization through Kyle and get help from the organization.

Is there any other plausible explanation?

Kyle took a deep breath and walked over to the man. Consciousness told him that the man was in charge.
