Chapter 8: Rumors
So far, everything is fine here. However, Gao Ying will not forget the premonition of danger he had when he approached this café.
Wine was served. Gao Ying immediately grabbed the wine bottle in front of Zhu Sunling, took the bottle opener on the tray, opened the cap of the beer bottle, and poured wine for the drunkard. Anyway, he really didn't want to see Zhu Sunling pour wine for such a sloppy drunkard by a girl.
At this time, the two waiters were also whispering nearby, and Gao Ying could guess what they were talking about. Such a café has been turned into a bar, and if it weren't for the bad business, they wouldn't have wanted to do such a business.
Watching Gao Ying pour himself wine, it also made the drunkard suddenly show his face.
Gao Ying also poured himself wine, then picked up the wine glass and said, "That...... Brother Lu, let me toast you. “
"Huh...... Good! The drunkard also picked up his glass, clinked glasses with Gao Ying, and then drank the whole glass of beer.
Wine is a thing that really has a strong chemical reaction, especially in the Chinese circle, and the thing in the cup can make the relationship between people who don't know each other extremely close. Back then, Qiao Feng and Duan Yu, two people who met in Pingshui, immediately married Jin Lan and became friends because of a fight for wine. Of course, tomorrow is the official exam, and Gao Ying will not be stupid enough to get drunk. Fortunately, the beer is light, and he also tries not to let Zhu Sunling drink, and he can't let alcohol affect her thinking ability.
After drinking three beers, Gao Ying felt that it was almost over, so he began to greet the drunkard. The drunkard had already drunk a lot of alcohol before he entered here, and it could be seen that his mind was already a little unclear. However, Gao Ying has always believed in the phrase "spit out the truth after drinking". Many film and television dramas exaggerate people's performance after drinking, as if people become mentally ill as soon as they drink, and there are almost no non-stop films, which is really nonsense. Alcohol only deprives people of their ability to think rationally, but people do not become crazy after just a few glasses of wine, a major proof is that we have never seen anyone commit a crime by drinking, and I have never seen someone commit suicide after drinking.
After drinking three glasses, Gao Ying also felt that it was almost the same, and began to greet the man.
"Recently...... I heard ...... "Gao Ying's inquiry is very skillful: "There seem to be some haunted rumors in the town......"
Instead of questioning, he said it directly in a near-affirmative sentence. For this drunkard who is already drunk, this question, if the other party knows something, he is likely to tell Gao Ying.
The drunkard took a big sip and said, "Ghost? What the hell? Hehe, little brother, you really know how to tell jokes. I'm telling you, all the hell is fake, and if you really want to say the devil's thing......"
The drunkard pursed his lips and said, "A living man, that's much more terrible than a ghost!" “
At this, the drunkard pursed his lips, looked around, and then said, "Have you read the newspaper lately?" Camp Blue and Camp Green (you know, I can't write this too clearly, otherwise the book will be 404) ......"
Seeing that the drunkard began to talk about social current affairs news, and even began to talk about politics, Gao Ying was also speechless. However, he still patiently listened to the drunkard talk about the political situation on TW Island, and even talked about it, seeing that he was about to talk about some topics that would definitely be crabbed, he quickly waved his hand and said, "That...... Are we distancing? ”
"Hmm...... Speaking of which...... Listening to the accent, are you from the mainland? ”
The difference in accent sounds obvious between TW and Continental. In the past, if you went abroad, you would adjust your accent, and even talking to HK people would allow both parties to understand Cantonese and Chinese to each other, but TW and the mainland speak Chinese, so you can hear the difference in spoken voice.
Without waiting for Gao Ying to deny it, he took a sip of wine and said, "Haha, don't be nervous." Are you two a couple? “
Gao Ying immediately waved his hand and said, "No, it's not!" ”
As for Zhu Sunling, she looked at Gao Ying unexpectedly and said, "What are you talking about?" Didn't you confess to me before? “
Then, she pointed to Gao Ying and said, "He has been chasing me for many years." I've been thinking about whether or not to say yes to him lately. ”
The reason why Zhu Sunling said this was to turn the topic back, she didn't have the heart to talk about political current affairs with this drunkard. People usually watch the news, and they always watch entertainment news more than social news, because bloody interpersonal relationships can arouse people's gossip psychology more than complex politics. By talking like this, you can turn the conversation back to your daily life. It's okay to use a categorical command, but Zhu Sunling doesn't really want to do this, so it's better to naturally guide the topic. When people talk about gossip, they always have a strong desire to pour out, especially when they like to take the initiative to say something that they think only they know.
Then, smoothly, she began to lead the conversation: "But...... This person is stubborn in some ways, for example, he always says that there can't be ghosts in this world, but I don't think so. As a result, they quarreled over this trivial matter, so he asked you this question just now. You said...... Is there really no ghost in this world? ”
When the drunkard heard this, he immediately slapped the table and said, "Little brother, this is yours." Such a cute little girlfriend, you're arguing with her about this? ”
Gao Ying understood Zhu Sunling's intentions, nodded again and again, and said, "But, where are there ghosts in this world." She babbles these things all the time......"
"Well...... What the hell......" The drunkard took out another cigarette, lit it with a lighter, took a puff, thought for a while, and said, "Actually, I've heard some rumors before......"
Here it comes!
Obviously, the "rumors" that the drunkard said did not believe in himself, and he was afraid that he would not be able to ask them at all through the categorical order, because they would not tell the rumors that he did not believe in.
Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling both held their breath, and the drunkard took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Well, little brother, your girlfriend said that there are ghosts in this world, and it may not be fake...... Actually......"
Suddenly, the café became pitch black!
"What's going on?"
This area is relatively remote, there is no light source around, and the moonlight is also very dim tonight, so that at this moment, Gao Ying can be said to be out of sight.
"There's a power outage?" The waiter hurriedly said, "You sit down first, let's go check if it's tripped!" ”
Gao Ying suddenly felt that something was wrong, and reached out to grab the other side, but he couldn't catch anything.
"Brother Lu? Brother Lu, where are you? ”
Then, the electricity came again. However, the drunkard is gone!
The waiter walked up to Gao Ying and said, "I saw that it was tripped just now, and now it's back up...... Well? What about that person? ”
Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling glanced at each other, and then their eyes locked on the ground at the same time.
There, a burning cigarette fell......
