Chapter 051: Cocktail
"No, he is my own brother, we were conceived by a mother, but if I am the same father and mother as him, why is he hunted down and killed while I am fine?" Reg said slowly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"What do you mean, you and Xiao Luo are not the same father, and Xiao Luo was hunted down because of his extraordinary background?" Weizi asked.
Reg nodded and said: "Otherwise, I really can't think of the reason why Xiao Yan has been hunted down, and the force chasing him is so huge, so huge that we have investigated for a year, and we have not found out the mastermind behind the scenes, except for his life experience, with his ability or contribution to the alliance, it is not enough to attract such a huge force to be hunted down." ”
"What do you think Xiao Luo's background will be?" Weizi asked.
Reg shook his head: "I just have some suspicions. ”
Reg didn't continue, and Weizi naturally didn't ask, since Reg didn't know, it can be seen that the secrecy of Xiao Luo's life experience.
"Does Xiao Luo know?"
"No, he doesn't know anything, and I'm not going to tell him for the time being." Reg said quickly.
The only people who know Reg's true background are a few comrades-in-arms who are friends of life and death around him, and a few related personnel in the base.
In the eyes of the world, Reg is the third son of the late Lieutenant General Lei Xiaoyu, the eldest brother is also a soldier, in the Natural Department of the Eastern Alliance, although the military rank is not as high as his, but he is an excellent scientist, and the second brother is a successful businessman, with companies all over the world. This life story stayed with him until he was twenty-two years old.
After Reg became a dispatcher, his adoptive father told him his true origins.
Reg can't forget how hesitating, struggling, and conflicted he was in the time since he learned about his own life, and he even hated his adoptive father for telling him everything, and it wasn't until many years later that he understood his adoptive father's suffering.
Sooner or later, Luo Ji will know his background, but Reg hopes that this day will be as late as possible.
"By the way, Lei Tou, what new information is there about Skylar?" Weizi asked, looking out the window.
Skyle, a character who suddenly appeared next to Luo Ji, must have attracted the attention of Weizi and others, and in the past two days, Weizi and Liu Sen have found out about Skyle's whereabouts in Utah City, but nothing has been found.
"The Western Alliance called back, Skyle is indeed on vacation, she should be coming for Luo Huasheng." Reg said.
"Oh?"
"The Western Alliance didn't say it explicitly, but only vaguely mentioned a few words, I guess there are people in her relatives who are comrades-in-arms with Luo Huasheng over there." Reg frowned slightly.
These things are highly classified within the Alliances, and they will not be said unless they are in special cases.
Weizi nodded understandingly, if he really came to Luo Huasheng, he didn't have anything to worry about.
Outside the window, Qi Yunhong, who got off the game, also joined the battle group, two to one plus two beauties who were not divided between friend and foe, Liu Sen completely lost the possibility of resisting.
"If you're hungry, let's barbecue at noon." Luo Zhiyan kicked Qi Yunhong, who was lying beside him.
"Good! Barbecue! Barbecue! Luo Huasheng, who has eaten barbecue twice, is very interested in this and strongly agrees.
Liu Sen also strongly agreed, and shouted at Xiaolou: "Weizi, come down, go fishing." ”
Skyler wondered, "What do you do fishing?" ”
"Aren't you going to have a barbecue? Guarding the seashore and not grilling fish is not a waste. Liu Sen said as a matter of course.
Weizi glanced at Regg, and finally left the door honestly.
Utah City is located on the West Coast, and although the local population mainly eats Western food, the global population is on the move, and it is not a luxury to eat any one taste in any one place.
Luo Zhiyan dragged Qi Yunhong up from the grass, kicked him and asked him and the cook Mary to buy cooking utensils and ingredients for the barbecue, he was also going to follow, glanced at the window of Reg's study, and gave up with a sigh.
Since Reg told him the other purpose of this trip, except for morning jogging and evening walks, Luo Ji basically does not leave the villa, he is not afraid that he is in danger, he is afraid that the people who are with him are in danger, and he is afraid that Reg is worried.
Liu Sen and Weizi said that they were going out to fish, but with their level, when they came back, not to mention waiting for lunch, it would be good to have dinner.
So Luo Zhiyan can conclude that they are going to buy fish.
Si Kaile said something in Luo Huasheng's ear, Luo Huasheng nodded excitedly, and the two ran behind Qi Yunhong hand in hand.
Luo Zhiyan was left on the empty grass, and after thinking about it, Luo Zhiyan also found something for himself to do, he wanted to learn from the bartender in the bar and mix a few cocktails.
He took a large bag into the cellar and carried it into the kitchen in a large bag of wine that he thought he could use, and turned out the shaker, ounce glasses, strainers, lemons, cherries, soda water, and so on.
Luo Zhiyan has never made cocktails, but as the saying goes, I haven't eaten pork and never seen a pig run? Luo Zhiyan, who often goes to bars, has seen a lot of how bartenders make cocktails, as long as there are tools, materials, and recipes, it's not difficult, right.
Reg heard the tinkling sound from the kitchen downstairs from time to time, and couldn't contain the curiosity in his heart, closed the papers and walked down.
"What are you doing?"
"Brother, you're just in time, try it." Luo Zhiyan handed a cocktail that had just been mixed to Rege.
Reg tasted it, spit it out with a pop, took a sip of water and rinsed his mouth and asked, "What's it, it's so unpleasant?" ”
"Is it hard to drink?" Luo Zhiyan picked up Reg's cup and took a sip, and spit it out at a faster speed, "Why is it so bitter." ”
"What did you do?" Reg asked.
"Manhattan."
"How much Angora Tuna bitters did you put in?"
"A big drop. The recipe says. Luo Zhiyan pointed to the formula.
"What's your big drop?"
Luo Zhiyan took a small cup and poured a drop.
Reg smiled, turned to the back of the counter and said, "Stand aside and watch." As he spoke, he expertly picked up the shaker, didn't look at the recipe at all, put the ice, whiskey, Vermouth, and Angora Tuna bitters into it one by one, covered the lid, stretched his arms, shook it evenly in a very handsome manner, and after a few minutes poured it through the strainer into a transparent open cocktail glass, and finally threw in a red cherry.
Put a folded white paper towel on the counter, and gently place the cocktail glass on the white paper towel, the brown-red wine will look crystal clear, and the red cherry will be like a tempting cherry lips, seducing people to taste.
"Please, sir." Reg gently pushed the wine glass towards Luo Zhiyan.
Luo Zhiyan smiled happily, took a sip of the wine glass, and said in surprise: "It's really this taste, brother, I really didn't expect you to make cocktails." ”
"I can't think of a lot of things." Reg snatched the wine glass that Luo Zhiyan still wanted to drink, "This wine is too cold to drink more, besides, your stomach is not good, you don't want to get drunk." ”
Luo Zhiyan hurriedly shook his head, the taste of being drunk was not only uncomfortable, but the key was to be embarrassed, he had already lost someone in front of Reg once, and he couldn't lose it a second time.
It's a pity that most of the time, the idea is always good, and the reality is always cruel. A few hours later, Luo Zhiyan once again had to let Reg into the room.
"What else do you want to tune?" Reg also came to be interested, when he learned to make cocktails, one was interested, the second was to relieve pressure, and the third was that during that time, Reg was particularly good at wine, in order to control his own drinking, he made his own concoction to drink, and poured it into his mouth if it was good or not, and sometimes deliberately mixed some unpleasant wine for himself, gradually, he overcame the problem of good wine, but the craft of making cocktails was practiced.
"I'd like to try them all." Luo Zhiyan handed the cocktail recipe he copied to Regg.
Regg glanced at it, most of them were cocktails that were common in bars, and only a few were more offbeat.
I found one at random, Luo Zhiyan was responsible for finding all the ingredients, Reg was responsible for concocting, and from time to time, Luo Zhiyan also came up to show his hands, and it didn't take long for the two to mix more than a dozen cocktails of various colors.
The people who went out to buy also came back one after another, and the lawn suddenly became lively again.
Qi Yunhong entered the kitchen for the seasoning, saw that the counter was full of cocktails, shouted excitedly, grabbed a glass and poured it into his mouth, so frightened that Luo Zhiyan shouted: "That's wine, not a drink." ”
Qi Yunhong finished drinking, tasted it and said, "I'm not a three-year-old child, you adjusted it." ”
"My brother." Luo Zhiyan said casually, paying attention to Qi Yunhong's face, he knew Qi Yunhong's amount of alcohol very well, just like that, a few glasses of cocktails could knock him down.
Qi Yunhong's Lian really blushed slightly, but there was no other reaction, and after listening to Luo Zhiyan's answer, he immediately turned his admiring gaze to Rege: "Brother Lei, I really admire you so much, you even make cocktails so delicious, what else will you not do." ”
As he spoke, he picked up another cup, and was quickly snatched by Luo Zhiyan, and the cup began to be opened, and then drank it and who would make lunch.
"Why are you here?" Luo Zhiyan asked.
"Oh." Qi Yunhong slapped his forehead, "I'll get the seasoning." ”
"Hurry up and take it, what do you need? Salt? Pepper? Chilli noodles? Luo Zhiyan took out a vegetable basket and handed it to him with a bunch of spices.
"Hurry up and get out, I'll make you some low-alcohol drinks, these are not for you to drink."
Luo Zhiyan pushed Qi Yunhong out of the kitchen, turned around, and saw a smile on the corner of Rege's mouth, and he was adjusting a blue margaret.
"Lao Qi's worship makes you so happy? Why don't you worship it too, so that you can be a little happier? Luo Zhiyan said with a smile.
Reg glanced up at him, didn't speak, but his smile widened.
It wasn't because Qi Yunhong's two words of worship made him happy, but because Luo Zhiyan rushed out of his mouth "My brother", saying it so naturally, that pride estimated that Luo Zhiyan might not have noticed it, but Reg felt it deeply.
The kitchen was quiet for less than five minutes, and Qi Yunhong's scene was staged again, but the actor was replaced by Liu Sen, and the excited shouting was not made when he saw the wine, but in the form of accompaniment, rushing in with his figure. (To be continued.) )
