The chirping of seagulls, the swelling of the sea, and the sound of waves crashing against the hull of the ship were heard.

The body shook and was carried forward.

When the billowing smoke that covered his eyes cleared, Bai Ye noticed that he was standing on the deck of a large cruise ship.

Not far away, a medium-sized pier is slowly approaching.

A polite cruise attendant wearing a white shirt and black vest walked over to Bai Ye and said respectfully: "Dear Mr. White Night, Mr. Rick Jones asked me to convey to you that he has delayed his trip for a while, and will arrive in Alberton City a little later, so you can go to North Point District to investigate first." ”

After the words were brought to him, the waiter bowed slightly to Bai Ye and turned to leave.

"Does that mean I had to go it alone at first?"

Bai Ye cut out of the task interface and took a look, and the main quest above did not change in any way.

At this time, the cruise ship let out a dull whistle and slowly docked.

After Bai Ye got off the boat and walked to the dock, a man wearing a peaked cap immediately stepped forward and asked, "Is it Mr. White Night?" Mr. Rick Jones told me to wait for you here, please come with me and I'll take you to North Point. ”

The man led Bai Ye to a black classic car, and respectfully helped Bai Ye open the door.

In the name of Rick Jones, the system has everything in place before the game starts.

On the slowly driving black classic car, Bai Ye looked at the street outside through the window.

The scene is supposed to be set in the early twentieth century, with grey skies covered in heavy lead-gray clouds, wide streets lined with tram tracks, rows of old Victorian houses, mostly formally dressed and hurried, and a group of children dancing with each other on street corners......

After about ten minutes of driving, the classic car entered a neighborhood dominated by low-rise and dilapidated houses, and the wooden sign at the intersection read, 'Welcome to North Point'.

After a few more minutes of driving, the classic car stopped at a small plaza with a fountain in the North Point district.

After getting off the train, Bai Ye stood next to the fountain and looked around.

The square is already small, but the dilapidated houses around it make it look even more cramped.

Directly opposite Bai Ye was a small bar, the 'North Point Bar' mentioned by Mr. Thurber in his letter, with two wine glasses painted on the billboard at the door, and the window glass was greasy, and the inside could not be seen from the outside.

It's afternoon, there are few pedestrians in the square, a thin girl of eight or nine years old is lying on the edge of the fountain playing in the water, with the name 'Joey' on her head, and not far away a woman is sitting on a stone pier with 'Anna' on her head, and the rest of the people have no names, they should be passers-by whose identities are insignificant.

"Are there any tasks that those two need to trigger?"

Bai Ye looked directly opposite him again, there was a small bar, it was the 'North Point Bar' mentioned by Mr. Thurber in the letter, the billboard at the door was painted with two wine glasses, the window glass was full of grease, and the scene inside could not be seen from the outside.

The bar was next to the entrance of the small square, and Bai Ye tried to walk out of the entrance when he came and went, but he didn't go a few dozen meters before he was blocked by an invisible wall of air.

"The play area is limited...... You can only move inside this square. ”

Then, he walked back to the fountain and tried to communicate with Joey, the little girl playing in the water.

"Joey is so hungry, I really want to eat banana muffins~"

But the little girl ignored Bai Ye and only talked to herself while playing in the water.

Banana muffins?

Bai Ye frowned slightly, guessing that this might be a precondition for triggering the task.

He glanced up around the plaza, and the third shop to the right of the bar was a small café that was supposed to serve things like muffins.

Bai Ye then walked towards the café, where soothing old music was playing in the small café, and only a middle-aged man in a long trench coat sat at a table inside, with 'Senel' on his head, obviously also a task target.

Approaching the bar, after the waiter with no name asked 'what is needed', a purchase interface appeared in front of Bai Ye's eyes.

Latte, $4 per cup.

Strawberry cake, $3 per piece.

Banana muffins, $2 per serving.

Sandwich waffles, $3 per serving.

……

Bai Ye found that these foods were all one-time consumables with attributes, most of which could increase the speed of physical energy recovery, and could also bring back the preparation space.

"Bonus points cannot be purchased, must be used in US dollars...... Rick Jones has arranged everything thoughtfully, but he didn't give me some initial funds? The system is intentional, right? ”

If you can't buy banana muffins, you can't trigger the quest on the little girl Joey, and before leaving the café, Bai Ye took the lead in coming to the uncle named 'Senel' and tried to trigger the quest on this person.

"Hey! This table is occupied, please go somewhere else. ”

But Senel coldly interrupted his intention to strike up a conversation, clasped his hands to his chest in a very cold stance.

"Okay."

Bai Ye shrugged slightly, and could only retreat from the café to the small square outside.

Then he tried to contact the woman named 'Anna' who was sitting on the stone pier in the square, but the woman seemed to have encountered something sad, and she was only crying over there, ignoring Bai Ye at all.

"Now that Joey's preconditions are the most obvious, and Senel and Anna are completely clueless, let's find a way to get money to buy banana muffins first."

Bai Ye walked towards the 'North Point Bar', and when he got closer, he found that there was a job posting on the wooden door of the bar.

The bar hires a waiter, male or female, with an hourly wage of $8. ’

"Is the right step in the quest to start with a part-time job for a bar owner?"

is worthy of being a third-rate explorer, and when he arrives in a strange place, he has to rely on part-time work to earn expedition funds.

Thinking so, Bai Ye pushed the door, the bell rang, and he stood in the North Point bar.

The North Point Bar is about twice the size of the café next to it, and it houses 3 NPCs with their names on their heads.

They are 'Rodman', the owner who is standing behind the bar and wiping glasses, 'Grylls', who is sitting behind a table in the doorway, sorting out the camera equipment, and 'Sebastian', who is lying on his stomach at the innermost table in the bar and whose name is prefixed with the word 'drunkard'.

……

Modified the previous chapter.,The follow-up of the embroidery girl spending money to buy clothes has been explained.,I've been very frizzy recently.,A lot of details haven't been written completely.。

Again, the summon here is a foreshadowing that costs the protagonist money to buy something from the system store, and it will lead to an important character, and I will remind you that the protagonist encountered some strange hallucinations at the beginning of the previous game, and the two foreshadowings are connected.

This book is not a fantasy, not a fantasy, not a fantasy!

As for the maid or something, the author is good at this, but it's not the old poison point of writing this book, don't worry, I'm not in the brainless codeword, I won't make the same mistake twice!
