Dressed in a gown, Jane simply took off her coat and put it on her arms to make herself less conspicuous. Alexia pushed open the door to the bar in front of her.
Today is her graduation ceremony, and it's Jane. One of the most important days of Alexia's life. But what made her very sad was that her teacher, David. Anderson was not able to make it to the event because he needed to carry out a mission. And even more so Jane. Alexia was a little angry that her two friends, Anne and Li Huamei, were not only late for the graduation ceremony, but not only did they both refuse to dance with her...... And when the ceremony ended, Jane, who was unhappy, wanted to drag the two of them out for a drink, but found that the two of them had run away without permission!
This suddenly made Jane. Alexia was a little sad - perhaps, the two of them had a better relationship, and I would be fine if I left...... They must be going to get married right away when I leave, right?! I won't bless them!
She didn't know that although Li Huamei and Anne had rushed back to attend the ceremony, they were both injured. is also an elite of N7 training, and if there is physical contact with Jane, Jane can easily find that Li Huamei and Anne are injured. And then...... To find out the reason, of course, there are all kinds of troubles.
Simple. Alexia glanced a little, it was the winter rotation today, and the bar near the base had a lot of customers, and most of the seats were full.
The training of the N7 series, in addition to being a special recruit like three people, there are also two ways to recommend the unit and self-apply. Moreover, N7 training is like a pyramid. In order to produce a sufficient number of N7 elites, Starlink must ensure the number of participants in basic N1 to N3 training. Once you have achieved N3 or higher training results, you will not be able to become an N7 elite in the end. It is still very good for personal promotion.
So there are a lot of military personnel trained at the N7 base in Rio, and bars like this one are almost exclusively military business. Jane walked in in the trousers of a military dress, which was not at all conspicuous in the bar, as most of the people were wearing military uniforms or standard armor of various styles.
But when Jane. As Alexia began to look for a seat, some of the people who came into contact with her looked away, some of them simply looked away, and some shook their heads slightly. Others simply put small things in empty seats - apparently, all of them refuse to share a table.
Simple. Alexia is beautiful, but her popularity at the base is very poor! Why do you want to talk about the reason...... Before Li Huamei and Anne came to the base. She has never met an opponent of equal strength -- if there is such a woman, who always leaves you far behind in her grades, and who is still looking for someone to "fight" in the barracks every now and then -- the people who can come to the N7 training base are all arrogant people in the naval center.
Being trampled on the head by a woman all day. Estimated even if Jane. Alexia is a hundred times more beautiful. I don't like it either.
Jane understood this, too, and it made her frustration even worse - I hadn't bothered you for most of the year (because I had the right opponents) - so she had to walk to the bar. At least there, no one will refuse.
"Is that okay?" Jane asked casually to the guy sitting on the edge of the bar. This man looked young, wearing personal armor, she didn't remember seeing it at the base, maybe a newcomer, right? But this person also has the temperament of a soldier, and she can't be wrong about that.
"Please", Lu Yuan reluctantly put down the universal tool. A polite word. I just had no temper after being tossed by Kexue, and all I was thinking about was how to retaliate (you are too careful). So Lao Lu didn't even raise his head, his mind was all about other things, and of course he didn't see that it was Sister Xue sitting next to him.
Lu Yuan was shocked when he heard the lady next to him sit down next to him, skillfully knock on the bar, and say "No. 4" to the bartender.
The drinks served in bars in this era are all synthetic drinks, and there is a whole process from irritation to alcohol content, and it may even be a light drug that does not have any alcohol. The woman ordered the one with the highest alcohol concentration on the list.
Lu Yuan looked at the glass in front of him, which was still a little untouched—two bright red and tempting cherries were soaked in the clear and transparent light blue liquid—and he also ordered the No. 4, alias "Cherry Bomb" synthetic liquor.
"Xue ......" Lu Yuan turned his head to take a look, only to find out who was sitting next to him, and almost blurted out the name "Xue Pad".
At this time, Jane. Alexia's No. 4 synthetic wine was also placed in front of her. It was a coincidence that the man next to him also ordered No. 4, and it seemed that he didn't know himself, which made Jane a little more comfortable. "Cheers", Jane raised her glass and saluted slightly, and drank most of it in one gulp.
"Oh, cheers." Lu Yuan had no choice but to pick up the glass of wine that he originally wanted to pretend to be, and reluctantly took a sip. "Poof! Ahem, ahem! As soon as Lu Yuan's glass of wine entered his mouth, he couldn't help but squirt out! And the choking smell made him cough unstoppable.
"Poof, haha~", Jane. Alexia burst out laughing. In this bar, she has seen more than once that someone has recklessly ordered No. 4, only to squirt out in the end.
Jane snapped her fingers, "Get him a glass of water, and tissues." Even when Lu Yuan was out of control, he covered it with his hands and didn't splash it on her body a little, which made her feel a lot better - and Anne was right, happiness should be built on the unhappiness of others.
The eighty-year-old mother was a child, and now she was embarrassed and thrown to her grandmother's house, Lu Yuan was speechless and asked the sky, and she was actually seen by Shepard! wanted to argue but couldn't speak, Lu Yuan could only take the tissue with a wry smile and clean up his armor. This thing can't be explained clearly, can he say that the wine tastes like swill when drunk, not to mention, there is an ingredient in the wine that specifically stimulates the taste buds and creates a sand pain in the mouth - can this TM still be called wine?! This TM is a cup of chemistry!
"For the first time?" Simple. Alexia smiled and asked, "You should start with number 1, which is more suitable...... Greenhorn. ”
"I said it's because the wine is too hard to drink, do you believe it?" Lu Yuan argued weakly.
"Of course! That's a good reason. Jane drank the rest of the wine from her glass, twisting the stalk and sending the agate-like fruit into her red lips, looking like she was enjoying it. Show off at a glance.
Immature! It's naïve to look for superiority on this! Lu Yuan rolled his eyes, and now Jane. Alexia is simply a female man, a stupid soldier. Does she think that she is very manly if she can drink the strongest wine? (But why is it "very man")
Lu Yuan knocked on the carrying case on the armor's legs, put his hand in, and with a movement of his mind, he took out a bottle of amber rum from the attached space of the "Book of Souls". He gestured to the bartender, "Get me two clean cups!" ”
(Well, you're not naïve at all!) )
As Lu Yuan poured intently, the amber wine poured into the cup like a jade bead, just three minutes away. Lu Yuan smiled, as if he was very satisfied with his hand. He unscrewed the cap and breathed a sigh of relief. Simple. Alexia suddenly felt very depressed, she was actually frightened by his pretentious appearance, and subconsciously held her breath......
"Try this." Lu Yuan put a finger on the cup and pushed it to Jane. Alexia's in front of her.
"That's, that'......" Jane. Alexia asked as she smelled the good smell, swallowed, and firmly refused, "No, I'm only here to have two drinks, I don't want to touch that." ”
"It's not a soft drug." Lu Yuan said, shaking the cup. "It's just wine, real wine." The rum is about 50 degrees, and Lao Lu wants to pull out two bottles of Red Star Erguo to blow - this depends on the amount of alcohol! But if you want to pretend to be X, Shenma whiskey, rum, Hennessy and the like are high enough, so they are the first choice.
"By the way, let's get acquainted." Lu Yuan picked up one of the cups and saluted back. "I am Lu Yuan, the land of the mainland, and the far away."
"I'm Jane, Jane......" Jane. Alexia cautiously picked up the glass of wine and smiled a little embarrassedly. It's just that when she wanted to say her name, she suddenly realized that she was about to graduate. Occasionally, a pseudonym is also required......
"Jane. Shepard. "Finally Jane. Alexia smiled and said another name—because she remembered what Li Huamei had said when she first met her, "Alexia? I thought your name was Shepard...... Simple. Shepard! ”
From this day forward, it will be called Jane. Shepard is okay.
