"Who are you?"

The bartender quickly put down the wine in his hand and reached under the bar table with both hands on his nervous expression.

He could clearly remember that the outside door was locked.

Xia Ren didn't speak, at this time, he needed to be convinced, it was better to leave it to Qin Yun.

"Isn't this a bar? We're here for a drink. ”

Qin Yun said with a smile, her expression was very natural.

"Drinking? In broad daylight. ”

Especially with a small child in my arms.

The bartender was stunned for a moment, but still didn't forget the most important thing: "I remember the door was locked, how did you guys get in?" ”

Qin Yun was a little surprised: "But we didn't see a lock when we came in." ”

"Don't talk about that, make us a few glasses of wine."

A few people casually walked to the high chairs in front of the bar and sat down, and the bartender felt that something was not right, and when he thought about it, it seemed to be natural.

"What do you want to drink?"

The bartender's gaze naturally fell on Xia Ren's face, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a little, such a handsome and handsome guy, even he rarely met someone who had read countless people.

Noticing the bartender's gaze, Xia Ren didn't care and said, "I'll do whatever it takes." ”

As an author, he has always been a young model worker who lives in a secluded state, and the number of times he has entered a bar can be counted on one hand, and the matter of bartending has touched his blind spot in knowledge.

"I'll do it too." Qin Yun continued.

Although she is a little more mature, she has never been to a bar at all.

Seeing that both of them said this, Lu Yi also followed: "I'm also casual." ”

Lily followed, and said in a childish voice, "Me too." ”

"Uh......"

The bartender looked away from Xia Ren's face, and glanced at the green-haired little Lori who was held in Lu Yi's arms, with a somewhat wonderful expression.

Qin Yun waved her hand and said with a smile, "Little child, don't care." ”

Hearing this, Lily pouted dissatisfiedly.

"Hahaha, it's cute."

The bartender was just a little surprised, but quickly reacted, and said with the same smile: "I don't know what's going on lately, everyone who comes to the store is not in good spirits, there are more refreshing drinks, and now it's closing time, and there is no ice cube prepared, Martini is not good, oh, let me think about it." ”

He pondered for a few seconds and said, "How's the wild grid bomb?" It's simple and practical, and you don't have to wait for a long time. ”

"Yes."

Xia Ren nodded at him.

The bartender was bartending while observing a few people. In fact, he was mainly watching Xia Ren.

He sat quietly, exuding a unique temperament, a few slightly long strands of hair hanging down from his forehead, and the blurry light shone on his handsome face, hazy.

He didn't say anything, just glanced at his surroundings occasionally, and in his bright eyes, he couldn't guess what he was thinking.

"Alright."

The bartender pushed three glasses of wine in front of the three of them, the lemon slices on the rim of the glasses exuded a faint aroma, and in the transparent glass, the orange liquor gently swayed,

Xia Ren picked up the wine glass, first took a small sip, then raised his head and drank it all.

He rarely drinks alcohol, so he can't taste any words, but he feels good when he drinks it, and the taste is more pungent than ordinary drinks.

When the bartender was observing Xia Ren, Xia Ren also looked at the bartender a few times.

The other party is about forty years old, although he is dressed relatively young, but the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes cannot be concealed, he has tattoos on his body, showing a piece along his neck, he is a little thin, his hip bones are more obvious, his eyebrows are dyed brown-pink, and the short hair on his head is also brown-pink.

From the sign of this bar, coupled with the way the other party looks at him, it is not difficult to guess something.

"It's a nice bar, it's very vibe."

Xia Ren praised it, and was about to say something, but the bartender covered his mouth and laughed a few times restrainedly, and said: "After all, it is my life's work, and when it comes to running it, it is naturally more attentive." ”

"You're the boss?" Xia Ren was surprised.

The bartender laughed even more: "Hahaha, of course, you've seen that employee willing not to come home after work." ”

He suddenly changed his tone and asked, "Is there something you want to ask me about why you came here?" I've been in contact with a lot of men, and what you're thinking in your heart can't hide from my eyes. ”

Xia Ren was stunned for a moment, and then said honestly: "Yes, two people have been to this bar before, and I want to ask you about them." ”

The bartender took out a can of tonic water from under the bar, opened it, took a sip and said, "Who is it?" But first of all, there are so many customers every day, I don't necessarily remember it. ”

"One of them is named Jack. Senman, another named Thomas. Jones. ”

"Hmm...... It turned out to be two good brothers, Jack and Thomas, who had been here the day before yesterday, and they were both great young men. ”

The bartender took a sip of tonic water, looked at Xia Ren, paused for a few seconds and said, "You don't look like official people, but my intuition tells me that you are not a bad person, let's say, what do you want to know about them?" ”

"What exactly did they do at the bar the day before yesterday, did they say anything strange, or did Jack come into contact with any strange people."

"Strange people?"

The bartender laughed, "The people who come to my bar are quite strange. The night before yesterday, although I don't remember very clearly, but the guy named Thomas went back in advance, Jack stayed with me alone until twelve o'clock before leaving, they should have been under a lot of work pressure recently, Jack looked sullen, I chatted with him for a few words, listened to him complain a few words about the company leader, and then left. ”

"No contact with any other suspicious people."

"Nope."

The bartender shook his head: "Everyone is a regular customer, they meet often, no one is a bad person, and the bad person has long been arrested." You may not know that although Ezeira is a tourist city and looks beautiful, the local residents are relatively conservative, and the people who come to my store are tourists from outside, or people who find it more comfortable and stay here. This circle is very small, and when you get drunk, you let go of your temperament, and it is difficult for everyone to have any secrets. ”

The bartender smiled, "I'm not bragging, I have the most congenial atmosphere here of all the bars in the city." Although there are also few bars in the city. ”

"I see."

Xia Ren also laughed a few times.

It's not a compliment, but he thinks that chatting with this bartender is really comfortable, maybe the other party has experienced a lot of things, and he is especially good at getting along with people, of course, the most important thing, he didn't feel any malice from the other party, not at all.

To be precise, this bartender belongs to the kind of person who is difficult to get angry even if he is irritable standing in front of him.

It seemed that Jack and Thomas couldn't ask on their side, so Xia Ren asked another question: "Do you know that there is a recent news of the disappearance of a writer named Thomas?" ”

According to the description of Captain John of the Logistics Department, Thomas. Miller Wright is a recalcitrant and difficult person to get along with, and probably wouldn't come to a place like a bar. Natore is a church priest, and it is impossible for him to come to the bar, so Xia Ren didn't expect much from the bartender if he knew about their situation, but just asked a little bit, it was best to have a result, and it was not surprising that there was no result.

But I didn't expect the bartender to really know.

"You see that you are a foreigner, and you even know about this?"

The bartender looked a little puzzled: "The one who disappeared with Miller Wright was that unscrupulous priest Natol, and a few days before they disappeared, Nattall and another person often came to my bar, and once they seemed to have a big fight over something, so I was impressed." ”
