Chapter 118: An Old Friend?
While the two biggest rivals in King's Harbor were preparing for the Harvest Festival that would soon follow, Xue Hua was taking his two sisters to hide in a tavern in a secluded alley in an aristocratic district, sipping a wine that had surprised them.
This tavern was discovered by accident while they were sheltering from the rain.
At that time, Xue Hua was taking his two sisters to play on the commercial street in the aristocratic district, but the superintendent Wang Worm suddenly sent him the news that the weather was about to change.
So he immediately took his two sisters and began to dodge in advance, preparing to hurry back to the embassy headquarters first.
However, the weather in King's Harbour was much more "capricious" than he had imagined, and the rain was almost as soon as it was said, leaving no time for even the slightest reaction.
The heavy rain poured almost immediately, and many pedestrians on the road were caught off guard and were instantly drenched in soup.
Xue Hua and the two sisters are both legendary-level powerhouses, and this little rain naturally can't help them.
However, it is too ostentatious to resist the rain on its own, and the shopping streets are full of people running around trying to find a place to hide from the rain, and it is easy to hurt others by exerting their power at this time.
Therefore, the three of them could only attach the primordial power in their bodies to the surface of their bodies, and then follow a group of people who ran around like headless flies to find a place to hide from the rain.
As they ran, they suddenly found themselves in an alley at the end of which there was a small-looking, run-down tavern.
So, with the purpose of hiding from the rain, the three of them rushed into the tavern without much thought, and then they found that there was indeed basically no one in the tavern as they expected, but the owner of the tavern was still patiently wiping the table behind the bar, and it was obvious that it should still be open.
What happened next was that the three of them ordered a glass of "cheese wine" in the recommended drink written in charcoal pen on the plaster wall, and then tried it with no expectations......
And then?
Then very simply, in the cup in front of Xue Hua and the two girls, there were at least twenty glasses of cheese wine now......
The taste of this liquor... If you want to describe it specifically, it is a bit like the kind of high-end champagne that Xue Hua was lucky enough to taste once at the wedding of a rich second-generation classmate in his previous life.
However, it has a sweet and soft taste that no sparkling wine has.
When you take a sip, you will have a soft sweetness like a toffee cube that melts quickly in your mouth, mixed with a refreshing coolness like a skaly.
This taste can be said to be suitable for all ages, and it is deeply rooted in the essence of Western alcohol.
However, this wine is delicious, but the stamina is not small, and the three of them rely on their legendary bodies, and their physique is strong enough to quickly metabolize alcohol, so they dare to drink it boldly.
For ordinary people, basically three cups is about the same......
Xue Hua slowly tasted the treasure in the cup, while thinking about how many barrels he had to buy to take away before he could drink enough, and the two little girls on the opposite side didn't know where to get a bunch of snacks, and they enjoyed it with cheese wine.
The rain outside the house was falling loudly, not only did it not stop, but it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and the three of them were also happy to be idle, hiding in the tavern in this small alley, and no one could find them.
The surrounding atmosphere is clean, the rain outside the house is like thunder, the wine is in the cup, and the fire is beside the fire, how comfortable and comfortable......
However, just as the three of them were enjoying the comfort, the doorbell on the tavern door rang again.
Dingdingding......
"Welcome, what would you like to drink?" The owner of the tavern is a well-dressed middle-aged man.
Judging by his outfit and the style of the tavern's dΓ©cor, he seems to have come from Westhorse.
"Cheese wine."
The new guest didn't seem to talk much, so he walked over to the bar, put a gold coin on the table and pushed it to the boss, and then said no more.
The tavern owner didn't care, just took the money, quickly turned around, mixed a glass of cheese wine, and handed it to him with the change he had found.
"Let's take the change back first, I'll refill it later......"
The new guest raised his glass and took a sip before pushing the change back on.
Then, he suddenly picked up his wine glass and left the bar, and walked straight towards the table where Xue Hua and the others were.
"Guest, please don't create chaos, the small shop can't stand the toss." The tavern keeper sassavelled his glass, and suddenly said this coldly to the new guest.
Hearing this, Xue Hua was a little surprised for a while.
Because he could clearly detect an aura of mercenaries in the guy who was leaning towards them.
And this aura is not weak, at least forty levels!
But the tavern owner was just an ordinary person.
However, this Black Harbor secret agent with a level of at least forty stopped very familiarly after hearing the tavernkeeper's words, and showed his hands to Xue Hua, indicating that he had no malicious intent.
"I'm not here to ask for trouble, I'm just here to deliver a letter."
"Sending a message? Give it to me? Xue Hua was stunned.
This guy wasn't here to beg for a fight, he knew that for a long time, because the aura on his body was very calm from beginning to end, and did not show more and more tension.
However, he actually came to deliver the letter, which Xue Hua did not expect.
He basically didn't have any friends in King's Port, and even if he was, he could find him in this noodle tavern at this time, and this "friend's" methods were not ordinary.
"Yes, as for the content, you can take it apart and see it yourself."
The Black Harbor agent took out a plain-looking parchment scroll from his bosom and handed it to Xue Hua, then returned to the bar and handed the empty wine glass to the tavern owner.
Xue Hua took the scroll, untied the ribbon on it under the curious eyes of the two girls opposite, and spread out the entire parchment.
I saw only one sentence written on a large piece of parchment.
"If you have something important to tell you, please come quickly."
The signature was: "An old friend I haven't seen in a long time." β
"Who the hell is this, without a head or tail?!" Xue Hua looked at the envelope and was really confused, this letter did not write what he wanted to say, nor did it write where he wanted to go.
And who's an old friend you haven't seen in a long time?
Who the hell are you?
What kind of plane? Telecom fraud?
"Hey, that kid over there, who asked you to send this letter?"
Xue Hua, who really didn't know what to do with this letter, had to go to the sender, but the guy who sent the letter obviously didn't know much.
"It was the old Beard, the owner of Beard's grocery store, who asked me to deliver the letter, and he said that when you go, you will understand everything......"
"Old... Bilder? Do I know this guy? β
Xue Hua looked back at the two girls, thinking that they were friends of the two of them or something, but the two girls shook their heads and said that they didn't know this person.
"Ahh Forget it, no one wants me to leave this tavern before the rain stops, and I won't talk about anything big until the rain stops! β
